How can I upgrade to Mavericks from 10.6.8? I cannot find in in the Apple Store. Thanks.

As of now you can upgrade to Yosemite, but not to Mavericks, at the App Store.
Upgrading to Mavericks
You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Mavericks
To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.

How can I upgrade to Maverick 10.7?

One week ago I purchased Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.3 (upon the recommendation of a Genius). Now I discover that I require a higher version. How can I upgrade to Maverick 10.9 at no additional cost?

Update to 10.6.8 to get the latest version of the App Store.
Once there you can purchase and download Mavericks from the App Store.

How do I upgrade to Mavericks from 10.6.8 on a MacPro?

How do I upgrade to Mavericks from OS 10.6.8? I've downloaded the software, but it tells me I need to have OS X 10.7. I can find all kinds of updates to 10.7, but I can't find 10.7 anywhere.

Not so hastily.
Backup your data, and read this tip:

Mavericks is no longer available from the App Store.
If you meet the Mavericks requirements then you can install Yosemite at no charge.

HT1444 how can I upgrade my macbook from 10.5.8 version to the latest version

how can I upgrade my macbook from OS X 10.5.8 version to the latest version?

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs. You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:

I have Quicken for mac 2005, can I upgrade to Maverick from OS X 10.6.8?

I have Quicken for mac 2005, can I upgrade to Maverick from OS X 10.6.8 and not keep all data?

I am new to the Apple Support community but am hopeful that you can help me!! I have just bought a MacBook Air, migrated my stuff and found that my Quicken for Mac 2005 is no longer supported. (I still have my Quicken 2005 working on my Mac OS X - Version 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard?) I saw a thread of communications back in 2012/13 where you helped a lot of people find ways to get their 2005 data into new versions - something about a $15 purchase. However, I can't find those discussions again. AND I don't know if they are 'relevant' because I'm now using the latest Yosemite, which someone just told me to upgrade for free....But this same person told me to switch to iBank, which others who have used Quicken for years didn't like. I'd just as soon stay with Quicken but it seems like they have less support for Mac users. Do you think I can move my data successfully still? I live and work overseas and leave the USA on Monday and am trying to leave my older MacBook Air (the one with my 2005 Quicken on it) here....
Thanks for any advice.

Outlook is a Microsoft product, I'd suggest posting on the Office for Mac Product Forums.

How can i restore my documents from icloud on my iphone if i have already gone through the setup process??

Back to the beginning...
What do you mean by "documents"? Word or Pages files, spreadsheet files?
Also, on your device, in Settings>iCloud, you have to have an on/off setting for Docments&Data. If not what kinds of entries do you have on that screen?

It's not an app. It's used for Wi-Fi devices.

You have already successfully made an Apple ID or you would not be able to post here in the ASC. You should not create another Apple ID, you should use the one that you have or you will create issues for yourself in the future.
Open the iTunes app on your Mac. On the Home pane (little house) scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the flag in the lower right corner. Choose the Japanese flag.
Then at the top of the page in the Quick Links on the right side choose Account. Do notcreate a new Apple ID fill in your current Apple ID and follow the on screen instructions.

You need to go through Snow Leopard(phone the Apple Store.) If you want to upgrade to Lion 10.7 but not Mountain Lion 10.8, ask them for a Lion download code at the same time.

HT1040 I cannot upload my iphoto book to the apple store for printing, it cuts out half way through the download. What can I do?

I have made a photo book which is ready now to send to the apple store for printing but half way through the download process it cuts out unexpectadly and will not send. I have printed many books from my computer through Iphoto and have never had this problem before. What could be the problem? I have checked for updates and installed all of them. Turned my computer off and then on again. But still keeps doing this. Help ?

Apple's servers are very busy today, right after the big WWDC conference and the announcement of new products.
download process it cuts out unexpectadly and will not send
The reason for this may be that the book contains photos that cannot be rendered. Have you checked the preview of your book? Does the pdf look correct?
See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040
If that is not the problem, check your network and your security settings. If you are using a Firewall or Antivirus filter, disable it temporarily.
Regards
Léonie
