I already tryed to ckeck my tools for popups and hoped that upgrating the system would help, but it's worse. What I'm missing & how do I provent this?

    how can i upgrade my mac os x 10.5.8 to the latest version? i need to download i tunes desperatly!!!

    You need a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD, an external optical drive such as Apple's SuperDrive, and the 10.6.8 combo updater. You don't need to buy Mac OS X 10.7 or 10.8.

  • I currently have iPhoto 8.1.2 on my macbook pro and am trying to update to the latest version.  I have had to work backward, but I can only get back to 9.1, which will not install because it says I need at least 9.0 to install it. Is 9.0 available?

    Upgrading from iPhoto 8 to iPhoto 9 requires a purchase. There are two ways to get to iPhoto 9: 
    1 - purchase a copy of the iLife 11 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com or eBay.com.
    2 - if your MBP meets the requirements upgrade you system for free to Mavericks.  Then you can purchase the latest iPhoto version, 9.5.1, from the App Store.

    Numbers documents from iOS need Numbers 3.2 on a Mac to open. And Numbers 3.2 requires Mavericks. If you are using Mavericks you can get Numbers 3.2 from the Mac App Store. It will be free IF you have Numbers 2 (iWork '09) installed. Otherwise you must buy it.
    Your other option is to send the Numbers file as an Excel file via e-mail to yourself to open with an earlier version of Numbers.

  • What version of Mac OS do I need to run the latest version of InDesign 10.10 using Creative Cloud

    What version of Mac OS do I need to run the latest version of InDesign 10.10 using Creative Cloud

    No. You do not need to go to 10.10, but it’s probably best to so to avoid this again for some time.
    That said, any machine still running 10.6 has got to be pretty old and lacking power to run the new apps.

  • Hi, I would like every new tab I open to open my homepage. How do I do this? I'm on a PC and downloaded the latest version of Firefox today. Many thanks!

    Hi, I would like every new tab I open to open my homepage. How do I set this? I'm on a PC and downloaded the latest version of Firefox today. Many thanks!

    Have a look at the [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/?src=ss New Tab Homepage] or the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/my-homepage/?src=search My Homepage] extensions. With My Homepage, if your homepage is set to a search engine, it will give focus to the homepage search bar instead of the address bar when opening a new tab. If you have any questions about installing extensions, [[Using extensions with Firefox]] can help.

    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements

           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space

    Upgrading to Yosemite
    You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite 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.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • When I log on, firefox opens 3 different websites. 2 of which are not my homepage. How do I stop this from happening? It started when I installed the latest version of firefox.

    Nowhere can I find a button, in firefox, to delete 2 of these websites.

  • How much usable space will an 8GB iPod touch 4th Generation have running the latest version of iOS6

    I am buying an 8GB iPod touch 4th Generation off a friend, and I am wondering, once I upgrade it to the highest possible version of iOS 6, how much space will I actually have to use for music etc?
    Much appreciated!

    If I recall about 6.3 or 6.4 GB. Not much more than previous versions.

  • When I attempt to sych with I tunes I get the following Error Message.  "Itunes was unable to load data class information from synch services. Reconnect or try again later."  How do I fix this?  This started happening after I updated to the latest version

    When I attmpt to synch my Iphone I get the following error message.  "Itunes was unable to load data class informationfrom synch services.  Reconnect or try again later.  This started after I uddated to the latest version of Itunes. What should I do?

    My iPods are working fine...this is just on our iPhone 3GSs....friend said his iPhone 4 was working fine with upgrade. 
    Tried: the winsock reset, uninstall/re-install of iTunes, shut the firewall down.  Even called Apple...and after 2 hours of being told that "I'm savvy and have done everything they'd recommend" still with no fix...
    Still:  Takes over 2 minutes (not hooked up to phone) to open Edit-Preferences-Device...and can't find any backups?!?!  Takes over 2 minutes to even open the phone to change spps, musice, books, etc....but won't let me do anything with contacts...wonder if this is what that error message is about (because I don't actually sync to an email program, I've just kept it all on the phone - mistake).
