How to update from 10.6.8 to anything higher and what?
I bought my iMac10,1 Intel Core 2 Duo in 2009. Today I run the systemversion Mac OS X 10.6.8 and don't know how to further update/upgrade to reach a min. of 10.7. My e-banking software e.g. requires a minimum of 10.7 to be able to further use the secure banking software... I read about updates to Mavericks but obviously I don't know which app to choose in the app store. Nothing seems to refer to be correct, I only find tutorials and learnings and videos etc. Can anyone help me with a useful next step to do? Thanks a lot!H
You have App store in 10.6.8 and that will enable you to go directly to Mavericks or Yosemite. The latter is a big download so be patient. Going to Lion (10.7) is a waste of time in my view.
Three checks to make.
Any upgrade above 10.6.8 wiill mean that any PPC programs will not work. To check out the situation go to ...

If still problem means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Can anyone tell me how to update from 4.2.6?
Check to make sure you don't have two firewalls (i.e. a Windows firewall and one on your router).
If that's not it, you may need to dig deeper ... like temporarily changing your router's DNS to use Google's DNS or OpenDNS instead of your ISP's DNS. Or maybe open up a certain port on your router (not sure which one that would be though, sorry). Or, if your computer is connected to the internet over wi-fi, try connecting to your router (or modem) via Ethernet, I heard of that solving a problem like this (though I can't confirm if that was real). -

HT4623 how to update from version 4.1 to 6.0
how to update from version 4.1 to 6.0
What do you mean unlocked one? You are talking about software updates here and software updates are free and for a 3gs you can only update to 6.1.3 as you have already been told.
If you are talking about phones themselves, then this is totally different and you need to be more specific or get your question right.
There is no unlocked software update - it s free. -

How to update from 3.1.3 ver to a higher ver.
Update it from iTunes on a computer as described at the bottom of this article; devices running an iOS version prior to 5.0 can't be updated straight from the device. It will be updated to the newest iOS release supported by the device’s hardware.
The maximum iOS version for the original iPhone and first generation iPod touch is 3.1.3.

Hi, I want to know how to update from 3.1.3 to 4.3.3, while the newest iOS version is 4.3.5
I think Apple won't let me update to 4.3.3. Does anybody know how to do it?
Your answer would be deeply appreciated. Thank youUPDATE TO IOS 4.3 MANUALLY(CANNOT UPDATE TO 4.3 BY APPLE SOFTWARE UPDATE)
FIRST= Download the iOS 4.3 IPSW file for your device FROM NET
SECOND- Connect your device to the computer using the USB cable and wait for iTunes to detect it.
THIRD- Once your device has been detected – follow the steps given below for different OS.
For Windows – Hold the Shift key and then click on the "Check for Update/Update" button.
For Mac OS X – Hold the Option key and then click on the "Check for Update/Update" button.
4-
In the next dialog browse to the file that you downloaded from Step 1 and select the IPSW file.
5
iTunes will now use the IPSW file and update your device to iOS 4.3. The process should take around 10-20 minutes.
That’s it. Your device will be updated to iOS 4.3 with ease. -

I have seen so much response about the Mountain Lion update slowing down computers. I am updating from Mac OS x 10.6.8. What can I do to ensure the upgrade will go fine? Do I unplug my external hard drive before installing, or keep it plugged in?
Also, I have the 08 version of iWork. Will this cause problems for the update? Can I update this AFTER I update the processor?Welcome to Apple Support Communities
There's no reason to think that Mountain Lion will slow down your Mac. Just make a backup of your data before upgrading with Time Machine > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427
Also, check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com Upgrade them to a compatible version or delete them before upgrading.
The external drive won't make the OS X Mountain Lion installer fail, but it's better to unplug it during the upgrade.
iWork '08 is compatible with Mountain Lion. iWork '09 includes OS X Mountain Lion features and can be purchased at the Mac App Store.
To upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion, I recommend at least 4 GB of RAM. You can check how much memory you have in Apple menu > About this Mac -
since you can no longer backup to disk, how to restore from external drive without losing all ratings and playlists?
My own opinion is that you should install the later appropriate version of Silverkeeper. That said, I would in fact recommend if you can wait a few days for an answer, that you email the La Cie Silverkeeper backup team via the email link on the site at http://www.lacie.com/silverkeeper/
They are careful to say they are not officially providing a backup service, but when I emailed them with a query regarding usage about a year ago after downloading Silverkeeper for myself, I got a reply within a couple of days that cleared up my question. -
Hi my iphone 5 is bricked in recovery mode while updating from ios 7 to 7.0.4 and every time when i try to restore 'Unknoown error 12' pops up each time.iphone was not jailbroken. please help
From the article that your statement was posted from:
Check for hardware issues
Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
Common errors: 1, 10-47, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1000-1020. -
I updated from os 10.5 to snow leopard and my logic 8 crashes upon opening. Does anyone know any fixes? thanks
Logic 8 should have no problems in SL.
Use Software update to check if you've got the latest update for it (SU will only offer an update if it's not already installed).
Failing that, I'd start by uninstalling Logic and re-install from the DVD in case something got corrupted during the update. -
Has anyone received an update on apple tv issue with HD movies and what they are doing about it
Has anyone received an update on apple tv issue with HD movies and what they are doing about it
Whatever the rep told you, it is complete nonsense. There is clearly a problem at your end, the Apple TV 3 is capable of more than the Apple TV 2, and you clearly have the Apple TV 2 working perfectly. Since the Apple TV 2 is able to download from the Internet properly, then my suspicion would be your problem lies on your local network. Interference is a common problem on local networks.
Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment. -
this is a weird start to my question; but i went to a music festival today and I was in a mosh pit and it was hot, and my iPhone 4 turned off and I was wondering weather it was from the heat or something else? And what I could do to fix it? Thankyou
okay, thankyou for you help anyway
