How do I get the new version of Picasa to open?

I have an older version Mac (10.5.8). I recently updated my Picasa application, & now it won't open. A window pops up saying "the application quit unexpectedly" & then it prompts me to "Relaunch" but every time I have done that, it still won't open. I have tried deleting & then downloading Picasa again, still the same problem! What am I doing wrong? I don't know much about computers so I am very lost & very frustrated.

I went to this page where Picasa is downloaded:
http://picasa.en.softonic.com
I found this on that page:
It says in big letters that Picasa is not compatible with Mac OS X.

Hi Kirbs13,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Your calendar should automatically update if you're using iCloud. If it is not, see this article for troubleshooting steps:

Imovie-how do i get the new version on my new mac???

Sounds strange I know but when I transfered the contents of my old imac to my new imac via the cable it has also transfered across the old version of imovie. If I set up a new user I can open the new version of imovie but my profile doesn't recognise the new version of imovie. Does anyone know how I can get the new version of imovie onto my current profile which was imported from my old imac?

Try updating it on your computer. If you get a message that your iPhone is up to date then you actually have an iPhone 4, not a 4s.

IPHOTO says photos saved with newer version of IPHOTO. How can i get the new version of IPHOTO back on my system?

I loaded IDVD on my IMAC. Now IPHOTO will not open pictures due to pictures saved with a newer version of IPHOTO. How can i restore the newer version of IPHOTO back on my system?

Sounds like a possible damage library. Give this a try: make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Command+D) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Some of my pages documents require a newer version to open. How do I get the newer version without buying it again?, Some of my pages documents require a newer version to open. How do I get the newer version without buying it again?

I tried to open a document in Pages but an error message said the newer version of MAC Pages was required. Do I have to buy the new version? How do I download without having to spend $20. again?

Sounds like you have stored files in iCloud or shared them with your iPad which has updated the files to the later Pages 5 versions.
Pages 5 only runs in OSX 10.9 Mavericks, and is a much cut down version.
If you have owned any iWork apps then you can get it for free with the Apple Up-To-Date Program:
http://www.freeforum101.com/iworktipsntrick/viewtopic.php?t=429&mforum=iworktips ntrick
To make Pages 5 files openable in Pages '09 you need to export them but they will have been altered, in some cases damaged. Better to revert to older copies.

The older version would allow to save tabs when closing, how can i get the new version to do the same?

the previous version would ask something like 'save file' when i would close firefox. as i use various tabs this is a very helpful feature for me. i would like to get this same feature on the new version, otherwise i want to know how to go back to the older version.
thanks

Firefox now always stores the old session, and you can access it by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session"
If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
# Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''
If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
# Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
# Go to the General panel
# Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

When I try to move the new firefox icon into my OSX applications folder I get a message telling me I don't have permission. How can I get the new version of Firefox into my applications folder?

I downloaded the new version of firefox for Mac OSX.
I dragged the firefox icon over my applications folder.
A message window asked if I wanted to replace an older version of the application. I clicked "yes".
Another message window popped up and said I did not have permission.
What now?

If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

Just installed OS X Snow Leopard, and now Photobooth says I can't use the old version (2.0.3). How do I get the new version?

I just downloaded OS X Snow Leopard onto my early 2008 Macbook. I would like to be able to use Photobooth but it says I can not use this (2.0.3) version. How am I able to get an updated version??

For now just reinstall the combo updater. If this does not install Photobooth, then you will have to reinstall Snow Leopard or:
How Restore Deleted or Missing OS X Components
A few of the basic OS X installed applications can be restored from the Optional Installs installer located in the Optional installs folder on your Installer DVD. However, if what you need is not there then follow the instructions below.
How to Use Pacifist to Restore Deleted or Missing OS X Components
Insert the OS X Installer DVD into the optical drive. Use a simple utility like TinkerTool to toggle invisibility so you can see invisible items. Alternatively, open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and at the prompt enter the following:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles Yes
Press RETURN.
To turn off the display of invisible files repeat the above command substituting No for Yes.
The install packages are located in the /System/Installation/ folder on the DVD.
Download the shareware utility Pacifist. Use it to extract a fresh copy of the missing item(s) from the file archives on your OS X installation DVD. The file archives are in the /System/Installations/ folder (use Go to Folder option in the Go menu of the Finder.)
Here are Four Basic ways to use Pacifist (courtesy of George Orville.)
A. Drag a .pkg icon onto the Pacifist window .....proceed to step 7.
B. Click on “Open Package ....” and navigate to package desired and click “Open” in
       the open/save window.....proceed to step 7.
C. Insert Mac OS X installer CD and when it mounts, navigate to .... Menu->Go->Go
       to Folder. In the path field enter or paste ....
/Volumes/disc name/System/Installation/Packages (where disc name is the name of the CD/DVD that you inserted.)
Click on the "Go" button ..... • Drag a .pkg to Pacifist..... proceed to step 7.
The package you'll need will have to be discovered by trial and error, but for most applications you should start with the Essentials.pkg and/or Additional Essentials.pkg.
D. Insert your Mac OS X install disk 1 .... and open Pacifist.
1.          In Pacifist, select "Open Mac OS X Install Packages" ... dialog may appear asking for disk 2, then disk 3 and finally disk 1 again.... {if DVD is not used)...If “Stop Loading” is selected...the procedure will stop!!!
2a. When loading is complete, a new window appears, click the triangle to display contents of each package...Select item and proceed to step 7.
2b.          or click the “Find” icon in the Pacifist window and type the name of the software you need.
3.          In the list that comes back, click the top most entry for the item that you want. ..... that is the one for the English language.
4.          On the top of the Pacifist window, click “verify” .... you will probably be prompted for your password.
5.          Enter checks for.... “verify permissions” and “verify file contents.” and click “verify” ....enter password when prompted.... you will get back output which may look like this:
          20 files were scanned. 20 of 20 files were present on the hard disk. 0 of 20 files had file permissions that did not match those specified in the package. 0 of 20 files had checksums that did not match those specified in the package.
6.          Click “close”. Go to step 7.
Extract or Install........
7.          In the Toolbar (upper left), you now have the option to extract or install. Click a file in the lower list and those two icons will be enabled.
8.          If “Extract to...” is selected.... navigate to the location where the file will be placed, select “choose”, select “extract” in new dialog that appears,authenicate , if prompted, click “OK”.
9.          In the next dialog, click “Extract”.
10.          If “Install” is selected... dialog will appear with the location/path of the installed software. Click “Install”
11.          Type in your password, click “OK”
Pacifist will begin to extract files.
12.          In steps 8/10ß.... you also have the choice to “cancel”
Notes:          Pacifist may find that a file it is installing already exists on the hard disk. Pacifist will present you with an alert panel....
• Stop
• Leave original alone
• Update .....
• Default selection
• Replace .... (Replace option should only be used on full install packages)

How can I get the new version of iTunes to work like the old one?

When I upgraded to iTunes 11, the next time I synched to my iPods etc, many, if not most, of the favorite podcaststhat I had saved in my library got deleted. We are a Mac family and three of us download different podcasts to three different computers. All our dealings (purchases) have been handled through a single Apple ID account.
Since the change to version 11, all the podcasts are jumbled together. I want to subscribe to different podcasts than my wife or son, but our different computers are being treated as one. I'll click to be a subscriber and my son will get the downloads, and vice versa. What a mess!
Is the registry of all three units to a single Apple ID the source of the problem?

When you say "not possible," I assume you mean I can't get it to look like the old version. When I wanted to update the different podcasts, I could hit refresh and select from those available. That seems off the table. And what's with the confusion between computers?

I have iWork '09. How do I get the new version? Can't find it in the App Store...

Trying to update to the newest version of keynote so I can edit my presentations on my iPad. It keeps telling me to update. When I do, it says its the most update version, but its actually not.

Using the latest version of Keynote 6.1 has the following conditions:
it only runs in Mavericks, it wont run on an earlier OS
it is not an update but a new application therefore it is a paid upgrade from the Mac App Store
it is available as a free download if you purchased a Mac from October 2013 onwards, if your Mac is older it is a paid for download
If iWork 09 is installed when you obtain Keynote 6.1 the older applications are still installed allowing the two versions to be used for the diffent file types used. Best practice currently is to use 5.3 to oen those files and 6.1 to create new files.

My sendnow is no longer linked to my outlook, how do I get the new version on there?

I want to have the ability to access Adobe Send on my outlook tool bar just like I did before my SendNow quick access was removed. Before it used to prompt me when my files were too big and give me the option to use SendNow and now it doesn't.

How do I get the new version of iTunes to display images with podcasts (such as those from UK national Gallery)?

Since installing iTunes 11 for mac the box at bottom L corner that used to show CD covers has gone - shame but not disastrous. However, i've also lost the illustrations that were transmitted with podcasts - such as those from the UK's National Gallery and the Queen!!!
Anyone know if there is a setting to switch them back on, please?

Don't feel bad, sometimes even the most obvious is hard to find. One of the things I do like about Apple products is there is a lot of un-documented features that you will stumble upon, even after years of using the same programs and features. Kind of like Easter eggs.

After downloading 6.0 continue to receive a crash message below when opening the broswer; tried to unintall & reinstall, ran all available updates and plug ins. I have also read all the FAQs and tried those. How do I get the new version to work?
