HT1222 Trying to update software mac OS X 10.7.4
Trying to update software Mac OS 10.7.4 and it keeps saying please close iTunes to enable this update. iTunes is closed. Anyone else had this problem?
Make sure your Mac has 5GB of available disk space to install 10.6.
Control click the MacintoshHD icon on your desktop then click Get Info.
You'll see: Capacity & Available
Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.

I am trying to update my mac to OS X version 10.7.5 or later but can't seem to do it. Its been doing a software update since about 8pm last night and still hasn't completed.

Hi there I'm trying to update my mac that is on OS X 10.4.11 and nothing is coming up in the software update in the apple menu
That would be because you have the last version of Tiger. To upgrade you need to purchase a newer version of OS X released since Tiger. They would be:
Leopard (10.5.x);
Snow Leopard (10.6.x);
Lion (10.7.x).
Which one you purchase depends in part on your computer model and installed RAM. Unfortunately, you did not provide any additional information.
Lion is the current version of OS X, but Snow Leopard is still available through Apple's Online Store. -

I tried to update software on my Iphone 3 from Itunes after i managed to sync phone to laptop but then i had a message (error 1015) after completing saying itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode, i am now unable to do anything with my phone, please help!!
You generally get that error code on a jailbroken phone ?
If it is Jailbroken then I am afraid you will get no help here. -

I had just updated my Mac to 10.6.1. When it finished, I had tried to open up Itunes but it says it requires 10.6.8 or later. When i had tried to update my mac it asked for my adiminstartor password. I dont know my password. Any way to reset it without using a disc?
Sure there is.
1. restart your computer in Single User Mode (by pressing Command + S during boot - see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1492)
This will boot your OS X system in a kind of command line mode.
Note: this will not work if you have a Firmware password set.
2. when in Single User Mode, enter the following command
mount -uw /
to mount your OS X file system.
3. now you can enter the following command
passwd username
replacing "username" by your OS X user's short name. Then you will be prompted to enter the new password for that user. You will have to confirm that new password.
Note that you will not see any character showing when you enter the new password; this is expected behaviour. -

Trying to update my mac and the newest version is not being updated
I have been trying to update my mac desktop and it is not updating to the latest IO S version or itunes
A computer cannot run iOS. Do you mean Mac OS?
Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac". Write down what it says about "version"and report that here. Now continue to "More Info..." Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present). I suspect you are running an older computer in which case it is quite possible you cannot upgrade iTunes unless you can upgrade Mac OS which may not be possible if it is too old. -

I'm trying to update from Mac OS X v 10.5.8 to 10.6 greater. The only download I can find is 10.6.8, but it will not allow it to install without 10.6. Any recommendations?

I am 9. Trying to update software on my I touch 4.3.3 and getting message in I tunes saying server not coinnected, but it is and then that settings not correct? Help please.
Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem -
I am trying to update my mac to os x snow leopard but the cd won't run on my computer
I am trying to update my mac to os x snow leopard but the cd won't run on my computer. I'm using an external dvd hardrive but I don't see why that would make a difference in wether or not it runs.
Well, that may be the cause of the no install problem, as Snow Leopard does require at least 1gB of RAM. The Apple link below will show how it is installed.

The link below is for a highly recommended site to purchase additional RAM.

I am trying to update software for face time on my iPad 2, but it won't connect.
I am trying to update software for face time, but it won't connect.
There is no update for FaceTime as it is included with iOS 7.0.4.
What specifically is your problem with FaceTime? Do you have a wifi/internet connection?

I want to upgrade the software (currently I have Mac OS X 10.6.4) but when the mac is downloading the new version i get an error message and is not possible get the most updated software: Mac OS X 10.6.8 or either the most recent itunes why?!?!?!
Then you either have a network problem or a hardware problem or a corrupted hard drive. You might try:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
You can also try downloading from another computer on a different network connection. -
