How do I update my software?
I currently have a mac version 10.4.11 (2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo), and I am unable to download the new version of itunes or sync my iphone with this. How do i go about updating my software? My computer says no system updates available.
You need to purchase a retail disc. 10.5 Leopard is expensive and hard to come by. If your machine meets the requirements for 10.6 Snow Leopard, I would jump right to that. Here are the minimum requirements to run Snow Leopard:
Mac computer with an Intel processor
1GB of memory
5GB of available disk space
DVD drive for installation
See here for more info: http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
Call you local Apple store if you live near one and ask if they have any retail copies of Snow Leopard. if they don't you can order it from Apples website: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A

How do I update the software on my Airport Express?
Hello everyone,
I have an Airport Extreme base station acting as WDS and an Airport Express station. I recently upgraded the security on the Airport Extreme base station from 128-WEP to WPA (Personal), but I don't know whether I have to do something to the Airport Express base station. It's green light is on. Do I need to do something? Also, how do I update the software in the Express? Whenever I open the Airport Admin Utility, the only thing that comes up on a scan is my Extreme base station. Any advice would be most appreciated.yes you need to update your Airpost Express. I just went through this last week with two of my Airport Expresses. I updated my Base and my Remote's light was green but was unable to view it in Airport Admin Utility. So this is what I ended up doing and it works great.
First bring the Airport Express you are working on in the same room as your computer......just the ease of seeing what is going on with the Airport Express. Next you need to reset it.....take a paper clip and push in the little button next to the Audio port and hold in 10 seconds. Then unplug the unit wait 10 seconds and plug it back in. wait about 3 minutes and then you will need to use Airport Set Up Assistant. You will need to make sure you have WPA Personal on your Airport Express too.
don't forget to make sure you have the update firmware too.

I hope this helps.....

How do i update the software on my ipod touch? i went to settings, then general, but theres no option called software updates.
You needing to be running iOS 5 or later in order to do a Software Update from the device. To run iOS 5 you need a 3G or 4G iPod Touch. So if you really have a 4G iPod Touch, connect it to iTunes and you should be prompted about an update to its version of iOS.

How do i update security software?
how do i update security software?
Apologies I didn't word my question correctly...I meant how do I update exhisting security software on my mac. I have not purchased additional software. Thanks for your reply. Basically my concern is that I have unknowingly exposed my computer to a virus. I had a hoax skype call come through "ONLINE NOTIFICATION" and I answered it. It told me that my computer was not protected and there was a security threat- and to visit their website. Which I did in my initial moment of panic. Quickly realised that it was phony and that any notifications would not come through skype, duh. I am worried that I have now exposed my computer by visiting the website.

I have a 2002 imac, how do i update the software?
i have a 2002 imac, how do i update the software? i have the original software and it wont let me update itunes! help!!
Apple seldom leaves of old versions of iTunes compatible with a 12-year old computer on the web site. What OSX version is currently on the iMac?
If you need a newer version of itunes to support an iPad, iPod, or iPhone, your computer is too old. Full support for Apple iDevices requires Mac OS 10.6.8; a 2002 iMac is limited to no higher than 10.4.11, or maybe 10.5.8 with a hack. Still, not enough for working with current mobile devices.
