You need to contact Apple and order and purchase the next Upgrade Disk, Snow Leopard 10.6.3, install that and then update that to 10.6.8. You didn't give enough information to know if you need to then Upgrade that to Mountain Lion 10.8 in the Mac App Store by purchasing that, Or even IF your computer is capable of Upgrading to 10.8.
OS X Mountain Lion system requirements
To install Mountain Lion, you need one of these Macs:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)
Your Mac needs:
OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
2 GB or more of memory
8 GB or more of available space
Hope this helps

Hi Balzer1313,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you have an older version of iTunes installed on your computer, you can update it using this menu option:
Windows: Choose Help > Check for Updates.
Mac: Choose iTunes > Check for Updates.

I had my most frequently used documents in Documents folder in the Dock. I thought I'd just drag it to the external hard drive, which I did, but then it was gone from the dock and I haven't had any luck putting it back. Somehow the applications folder has also disappeared! Can someone please tell me explicitly how to get documents and application folders back on the dock.
Thank you - I had tried to do this but it didn't work. What I finally found that worked was that on the desktop I right clicked and then selected "new folder". I named it documents (then did the same for applications) and dragged those folders from the desktop to the dock, and am in the process of dragging the documents and applicatons from their original folders into the new ones - it seems to be working fine.
I have no idea why it didn't work as you suggested - I tried several times with no luck, I even took a few unused icons off the dock in case there was not enough room.
So hopefully one of our solutions will help someone else. Thanks again. -

I just got DSL in my area and installed it. I have a WRT5...
I just got DSL in my area and installed it. I have a WRT54G router and a zyxek 660R DSL modem. I have a PC #2 in the room down the hall and a PC #1 in another room. I have a Wireless-G USB adapter in PC #2. Everything is installed and PC #1 can connect to the internet through the modem and router. However PC #2 can only reach the access point (router) and will not access the internet. I can get the internet for PC #2 when an ethernet wire is used. I pinged the router and the echos look fine. So it can certainly reach the router. When I use the Local Network tab and click on DHCP Clients table both PCs are displayed. So how can a PC using a wireless connection reach the internet without using another DSL modem?
Thanks for your help.hi !
Do one thing first connect your modem to your router (@ internet port ) & then connect your pc to the router (@ ethrenet port) ....configure your router & make sure tht your pc is online wired ...then open the setup page for the router do the wireless setting on the router ............once's ur online wired through the router u will online wireless also !

My new ipod touch 4g that i just got is running extremely slow and the apps crash alot. I have about 10gb left out of 16 gb. When i got it, it was brand new, and ran like how it is now. I was just wondering if this could be some sort of defect?

Just got iPhone 5, get home and find iCloud Outlook Add-in does not install under Windows XP. I am loathe to upgrade to Windows Vista/7/8 just yet. Can I obtain and use an earlier version of iCloud Outlook Add-in? My iPad II synchronizes!
There is no 'earlier' version that supports XP. iCloud launched with Vista/7 support only.

You may have to do this several times.
Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

Just got an iPad mini 3 and have not reset my iPad mini 3; is that why the photos from iCloud backup are not showing up in the new iPad?
Sorry, don't know what you are asking. You have an old iPad Mini 3 and a new iPad Mini 3? How did you set up the new iPad? Did you restore it from a backup of the old iPad? What photos are you not seeing?
Cheers,

just got a ipod 7th generation and having some difficulty copying tunes from 5 generation to new ipod; cant seem to sync old with new. any suggestions?
Plug your iPod in and when it appears in iTunes, click on it from under Devices in the left hand pane. This brings you to the Summary tab. Locate and click on the Music tab. What configurations do you have made from under this tab? Is your iPod configured to sync those playlists?

Hi. So i had an iphone 4s. The phone was completely destroyed it was cracked, water damged, and now lost. I had about 1500 pictures on there. I just got an iphone 4 today and synced my icloud to find that no pictures loaded. Talked to apple and they want $250 and it's not guaranteed. So please help me find my pics and how i can pleasssee get them back. Very important pictures with a lot of memories. The pics were all on my camera roll of the 4s!!please help!!!
If you ever backed it up while these photos were on it, restoring another iOS device to the backup should recover them. If the backup was done with iTunes rather than iCloud, you may also be able to extract the photos from the backup on your computer by using 3rd party software such as iPhone Backup Extractor (http://www.iphonebackupextractor.com/).
