HT1338 I'm still running 10.4, and can't update to 10.5 or higher on my Mac book.

I need to update the software on my Macbook. I'm still running 10.4... This is for school. I'll be using animation programs. Please help and thank you!!

I have a similar question.
Am I limited to the upgrade versions I can install, based on the Technical Specs for a MacBook Pro (late 2006) (Oct. 24, 2006)?
I'd like to go to os10.6, so I can sync with my iPhone 4s. Is OS X Mountain Lion an option worth considering?

Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here;
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Click Go
Then right or control click the Flash Player.plugin then click Get Info
The version number is noted there.
Assuming you are using Safari ...
Check Safari > Preferences > Security
Make sure: Enable plug-ins is enabled.
Sometimes uninstalling the currently installed Flash plugin then reinstaliing new can help > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
If you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video / audio from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to: Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.

I realise there have been a number of threads like this now that I have started looking, the problem is the back-ups i made were saved to a server network which has now also gone down, a case of dreadful luck really. Is there any other way to get the music back?

Can I do a clean install of Lion, onto my Mac Book Pro4,1, that is currently running 10.5.8? I have seen U-tube videos on how to do a clean install to Snow Leopard, and another from SL to Lion, but can zero out my HD, and do a clean install to Lion?

A Cloud subscription SHOULD always show you the most recent updates, so you may then choose to do the install

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
You should now see the App Store icon, and you now need to set up your account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

I have been editing with Final Cut for many years, on many different Macs. Currently using Final Cut Express v4 on a 2.66GHZ Core2Duo MacBookPro with 8GB RAM. Ditto on my 3.06GHZ Core2Duo iMac with 8GB RAM. It runs really well on both computers. An i5 based Mac will do even better.
The amount of RAM definitely makes a difference if you are using things like Photoshop, Aperture, Lightroom, iMovie, Final Cut and similar apps. They will run in 4GB RAM but they run a lot better with 8GB RAM or more. If I were configuring a new Mac to run these kinds of programs, 8GB RAM would be my suggested minimum.

I have an Ipod touch 6 and can't updated apps. When I click update, nothing happen. Any clue?

Thanks,

There is no iPod Touch 6. The latest generation is iPod Touch 5. Perhaps you mean you have an iPod running iOS 6.1.6. If so, you have a 4th generation iPod which cannot update past 6.1.6. A 5th generation iPod can run iOS 7

How do I figure out if I have usb 3.0? I am trying to buy compatible external hard drive (western digital my passport for mac) and I can not figure out if it will work with my mac book.

Dont buy a Western Digital, get a Hitachi or Seagate (Toshiba is made by Hitachi). These are the most reliable, and the HD used inside Macs.
ALL HD can be made compatible with your MAC (including a WD if you already bought same), ......they just need to be formatted for the Mac platform, format them in Disk Utility as Mac OSX extended journaled.

Updted to Mavericks and can't update IPhoto

Had updated to Mavericks and can't updated the IPhoto nor the IMovie
Clicked Update on the App Store for both the IBook and IMovie and keep asking to enter password without doing any action

Sounds like an App Store issue. I'd ask on this forum:

I can't get into iPhoto or iMovie since I update to Mavericks and can't update Them either. How can I get updated so I can get in to IPhoto?

I can't get into iPhoto or iMovie since I update to Mavericks and can"t update IPhoto and IMovie either. A message pop up stating that under this ID I didn't buy it or purchas was canccelled. What is that?

Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
Follow the directions in this support article.
Step 2
Associate your Apple ID with your user account. Then sign in to the App Store with the same ID.
Step 3
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/adoption.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A folder may open with a file named "adoption.plist" selected. If it does, move the file to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Log out, log back in, and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 4
Contact Mac App Store Customer Service.
