How do I update my icon on my Mac Desktop?
I can only surmise you are running 10.6.6 or later, since the Mac App Store became available then. Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac and tell us your Mac OS X version. Some Mac OS X versions could have their icons changed, while others could not. I can get a moderator to move this thread to the correct forum once I know your version and know whether or not I can answer this question.

I have an icon on my MAC desktop called disk utility. When I click it on it a message says it is not compatible with this version of OS X. Can I then delete this set of files?

I did upgrade and here is the current version: OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)
I was able to get to and open disk utility through Application> utilities
I thought the disk utility icon on the desktop may be related to my old software. I was going to move it totrash but it had over 2000 files and so I did know if it was still being used or could be moved to trash.
What kind of files are in there? Sounds like a carry over from your last system. DiskUtility should only be kept in Utilities with a shortcut in the dock or an alias on the desktop, idealy.

just bought a new macbook air, how can i install my iphotos from my mac desktop to the air
BillConnect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc) or use an external hard drive formed Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.

My Safari Icon ( Button) is missing on my iMac after I downloaded a update. How can I get the icon (Button Safari) back on my desktop and connecting again to the Internet ?...
Thanks for the helpOften when people think they've deleted an application, what's really happened is that they deleted its icon from the Dock. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Applications
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-A to open the Applications folder. If the application is in that folder, drag it to the Dock (not to the Desktop or anywhere else.) The other Dock icons will move out of the way to make a place for it. -
how do i update my macbook pro from 10.5.8 to the latest software?
First you have to purchase Snow Leopard, 10.6, from the Apple on-line store for $20. Install and on-line software update from the disk version to the last of the line, 10.6.8.
Then determine if you can go to Mountain Lion, http://www.apple.com/osx/specs and if you can go to the App Store and purchase for $20 the download of 10.8.3.
If you cannot go to ML, see if you can go to Lion, 10.7.5, do you have an Intel Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor at least 2 GB ram and 7 GB free hard drive space. If so you can purchase a download code for Lion from 1-800-MY-APPLE for $20.
If you can use Mountain Lion, skip the Lion step and go directly to ML. -

Before you buy anything, first make sure your Mac is compatible.
