is it possible to update your os x 10.4.11 online?

Nope. All major versions of OS X must be purchased. Mountain Lion is downloadable from the App Store after purchase.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will receive physical media - DVD - by mail.
Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
Snow Leopard from eBay
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.
Before upgrading check that you computer meets the minimum requirements:
Snow Leopard General requirements
  1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
  2. 1GB of memory
  3. 5GB of available disk space

Upgrading to Lion
First, you need to upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 as stated above.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
Before upgrading check that you computer meets the minimum requirements:
Lion System Requirements
  1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or

  • HT1414 is it possible to update your ipad without backing it up or transferring purchases when using another computer

    Is it possible to update your ipad 2 to the latest software without backing it up or transferring purchases to another computer other then your own?

    What iOS version are you on ? If 5+ then as I said, you can do it directly on the iPad via Settings > General > Software Update.
    If you are on iOS 4 then you will need to connect to your computer's iTunes and transfer purchases and do a backup - updating to iOS 5+ from 4 or below will backup up the iPad, wipe the iPad, install iOS 5.1, and restore your backup and iTunes media content (if you don't transfer purchases and backup then that content will no longer be on the iPad after the update).

    Is it possible to update QT 7 to higher version? I ran the update once and all the Pro features were disabled with the message: Your Reg Key is for QT Version 7 only. I uninstalled the new QT version, and reinstalled the old QT 7 but the Pro functions were still unavailable, so , I had to reinstal Windows to get my Pro functions back. This happened quite a while ago, but every time I get the "Update" message, I am afraid to launch it.

    All I can say is that the problem you experienced is not by design but was instead some sort of technical fault, either in QuickTime or in Windows. I've upgraded QuickTime for Windows a number of times, to various new versions of QuickTime 7, and it's never removed my Pro key. My guess, and this is strictly a guess, is that something corrupted the preference file where the Pro key is held, disabling the Pro features and not allowing you to re-enter your key. Since you reinstalled Windows, I would expect that future updates to QuickTime will go without problem, and if for some reason the Pro features are ever removed, re-entering your Pro key should get them back.

    I have an iPad 1 that is currently showing software updated at version 5.1.1.  Is it possible to update to iOS version 7 on this device?  My goal is to get Garage Band on this device and the app store is telling me I need iOS version 7.

    Hi,
    If you really need to upgrade you can save a bit of money and get an older version than the ipad Air.
    First, you can sell your ipad 1 to places like gazelle.com, cashforyourmac.com, sellyour mac.com, or many others out there. The sites I listed give you cash. At this point gazelle.com is giving $70.00 for any ipad 1 in 'good' condition. And cashforyourmac will give you $25.00 over what gazelle.com or sellyourmac.com offers you. Shipping is free.
    Then, with that money, go the the Apple online certified refurbished store. As an example, a new 64gb Air costs $699.00. A refurbed 4th gen 64gb costs $529.00 and a 3rd gen 64gb costs $499.00. Personally, I'd skip the 3rd gen. So if you buy a 4th gen 64gb at $529.00 minus what you can get from a sale to above, you can get an ipad 4 64gb for just over $430.00, a savings of savings of about $270.00. (A new 32gb Air is $599.00, a 4th gen 32gb is $449.00, and a 3rd gen 32gb is not on the site right now.) Google it and check if you can get better offers anywhere else. But getting one from the Apple refurb store gives you an essentially new ipad and using the above sites, you're not locked in with a particular site which will give you a gift card and restrict you to their store/site.
    Each Apple refurbished ipad (any version) comes with a new front and back cover, a brand new battery, same return policy, and a full one year warranty with 90 days of phone support. Each comes in a white box like a new ipad with the wall charger and usb cable. The only difference is that it says in small print on the bottom of the box that it is Apple certified refurbished. Also, if you buy refurbs, be sure to check the store many times a day. They can come and go quickly, so when you see what you want, buy it right away. Shipping is free and pretty fast. (We bought two a year and a half ago and they have been great!)
    Hope this helps.

  • Many Ways to Update Your Firmware

    The reasons for a firmware update differ from printer to printer, however the instructions listed on the website are basically the same.  Some firmware updates are required to resolve a specific issue, others enhance features but are not required.  You will often find a list for what the firmware enhances or fixes listed on your product's support website under the firmware's download link (continue reading for more information).
    One method to determine if your product is up-to-date is to print a Printer Status Report or test report within the printer's setup menu which should indicate which firmware version the printer currently has.  Next, go to the printer's support website at www.support.hp.com and type in your product name to look under the drivers' section in order to see if your firmware version matches the most recent one found on the website.
    I have found a very useful tool to help you find out, not only if your product is in need of a firmware update, but also it will locate the serial number, product number, your current operating system and system type as well as the warranty status.
                                          --Automatically find HP Updates using HP Product Detection Utility (Google Chrome)--
                                          --Automatically find HP Updates using HP Product Detection Utility (Internet Explorer)--
    If you have ePrint functionality on your printer or a web-services menu within the front panel, in the ePrint settings, clicking Product Updates can quickly install the firmware, however, from a personal perspective, I would recommend ensuring the printer is connected via USB or Ethernet to avoid risk of the update being interrupted as this can cause permanent damage to the printer, rendering it useless.  This method may inform you no product updates are available so it is good practice to use my example above to be certain. Lastly, this will only work if your printer is connected to the network (Ethernet or wireless).
    To update your firmware from your printer (these instructions were taken from the Officejet 6500A Plus):
    "For easier use, HP recommends installing the firmware update through the product control panel instead of downloading the firmware update from this page. If your product is connected though a network (Wireless or Ethernet), you can easily and quickly install the firmware update directly through the product control panel. You must have an active Internet connection.
    If you choose to download the firmware update from this page, your product must be connected through a USB connection.
    Follow these steps to install the firmware update through the product control panel:
    1.  On the product control panel, touch the Right Arrow to display the second navigation screen.
    2.  Touch Setup, and then touch the Down Arrow to display the Web Services Setup Menu.
    3.  Touch Web Services Setup.
    4.  Touch the Down Arrow to select Product Updates.
    5.  Touch Check for Product Updates."
    Using the downloaded version from the website will ensure a secure connection and will require a PC.  You will find, your operating system will determine the type of firmware update you receive at the website.  That is why the above suggestion may work in some instances but not all.
    To update your firmware from your PC:
    Initial Step: go to www.hp.com/support and select the region you live in.  Under the Drivers and Download Tab, type in the name or model number of your printer and press enter.  Next, you will need to know the operating system of your device you intend to use to install the firmware update.  Click here to discover your operating system.
    Firmware Update Instructions (these instructions were taken from the LaserJet P1102w):
    "*Please use a 2 meter (6 foot) USB High speed (2.0) cable.
    1.Download the firmware update utility file to your desktop. Double click on the file.
    2. Select the printer(s) you want to update from the list.
    3. Click on the "Update All" or "Update One" button in the dialog window.
    4. Following the on-screen instruction to proceed the upgrade. During the printer firmware update, the printer's LEDs will begin flashing.
    5. Do NOT power cycle the printer or the PC during this process, or the printer may become unstable and/or unusable without further attention from HP. The firmware update can take several minutes to complete. Please be patient.
    6. To verify the update, a configuration page can be printed. The configuration page will display the current firmware revision in the product information section.
    Notes: If the firmware was already up to date, firmware was not altered. Otherwise, the Utility will display a dialog box at the conclusion of the successful firmware download indicating the download is complete."
    LaserJet utilities are different than the common smaller printers.  It is best to contact HP Support for assistance if you are not able to understand the difference by visiting the printer's business support website.  Large printers can come in such an array of setup options, from servers to software, what may apply to one setup may not apply to another yet it could contain the same printer.  If you have a commercial product, you may find additional assistance at the HP Enterprise Business Community which is an HP forum specific to those kinds of models.
    I feel certain I just do not have enough bandwidth to go into even a general perspective on the different specifications of how to update the firmware of your commercial product.  
    To update your firmware through the EWS: Some models allow you to update the device through what is called the embedded web server (EWS).  You can access this page of your printer by setting up the printer on a network (Wireless or Ethernet connection) and typing in the established IP address of it into the address bar of a web-browser (example: http:\192.168.1.101).
    Click here to view a forum post on how to update your printer through its EWS.
    System Requirements:  Ultimately no additional prerequisites are needed beyond what I have explained above.  You are required to have already installed the software specific to your printer for most firmware updates though.  Once you click on the firmware update link provided at the website, you will see which operating systems it applies to, however, some updates are not needed for all operating systems.  For example, a software patch may be a critical update for a computer running XP but would have no affect on a computer with Windows 8 or Mac.
    I have provided this information in order to explain a few of the techniques used to update your printer to its fullest capacity.  However, I have found through experience it is good practice to have an HP technician on the phone to assist you with this.  Sometimes the worse has happened in regards to power outages, "blips" in the network, or just bad luck and this step has caused the printer to go into a state that it cannot return from.  The terminology used to possibly revert back to a state prior to the firmware update is called "flashing the firmware" and this is only done via phone support and isn't a guaranteed fix.
    I do hope you find this information useful as this is a question I have seen many times on the forums.  This is simply a summary of the many ways to update your firmware in case one of the methods above are not working.  For a more specific description, access the firmware link you are trying to update and read it carefully or click here to link to another forum post.
    Click here to find an HP Support Contact in your region for further assistance.
    Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.
    When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.
    Every problem has a solution!

    Some great information there VisionAiry, many thanks Ciara

    Himanshu,
    This just happened to me today with the Adobe Content Viewer and a v22 published app.  I updated a folio which was created a while back that was set to "Unspecified" for Viewer Version.  It was created originally with pre v20 tools.  In both the ACV and a published app this folio showed that "Please update your app..." message when trying to download/view the updated version of the folio.  When I got the first update message I was viewing the folio, then I affirmed that I wanted to download the update so it took me to the library view.  After trying to initiate the download/update it shows the "please update" error message.  I tapped "OK" and then it let me download and view the updated folio.  Basically it's showing an error message that doesn't apply.  We know it isn't a v23 folio trying to be viewed by a v22 app because my folio version is not even v20, and also because it still lets me download/view the update after it gives the warning.  When I've made the mistake of trying to view a newer folio with an older viewer in the past it doesn't let me download/view the new folio, it just gives the error message.  Every time I've observed this false error message I've been viewing a folio when I got the initial alert that an updated folio is available.  This may or may not be significant/relevant.

    Hi, I bought a Macbook in 2007/2008 and am wondering if it is possible to update my system so I can get the new version of iTunes?
    Here are my current system details: Mac OsX Version 10.5.8
    Hardware Overview:
      Model Name:    MacBook
      Model Identifier:    MacBook4,1
      Processor Name:    Intel Core 2 Duo
      Processor Speed:    2.4 GHz
      Number Of Processors:    1
      Total Number Of Cores:    2
      L2 Cache:    3 MB
      Memory:    2 GB
      Bus Speed:    800 MHz
      Boot ROM Version:    MB41.00C1.B00
      SMC Version (system):    1.31f1

    The model 4,1 can run a maximum of 10.7 Lion.  The 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD is in the Apple online store. You can get it for $19.99. After you’ve installed that then download the 10.6.8 combo updater to finish it off. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399 You will need to be running 10.6.8 to access the App Store to order Lion. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    System Requirements for 10.6:
    Mac computer with an Intel processor
    1GB of memory
    5GB of available disk space
    DVD drive for installation
      Some features require a compatible internet service provider: fees may apply.
    You can upgrade from 10.5 to 10.6 with no problems as long as you have at least 1gb of RAM. Any program that runs under 10.5 should run under10.6. See this list for third party programs compatibility with 10.6: http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/  You might have to upgrade some drivers for printers, etc.... And you will have to install Rosetta if you have any Power PC applications 
    http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/snow_leopard_installing_rosetta/  
    Once you are at 10.6.8 Lion is still available from Apple. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store. Or go to http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6106Z/A/os-x-lion and purchase it there. The price is $19.99.
    Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
    As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
    Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

    I have my credit card cloned this second semester. Since I use it all onver the place, I didn´t think it was due the registration on ITunes. Now, in november, I got my second credit card cloned, shortly after changing my registration info on ITunes.
    Is it possible to get your credit card cloned on ITunes?
    i am really worried.

    From what I know  the link when you use the itunes store is encrypted and your credit card details are not sent over the line when purchasing, as they are already on the server, only your username and password are sent to confirm your login.
    If you updated the credit card details you should have no issue if you did it on the phone, if you did it on a pc, it could be the pc was compromised, but this is pure speculation.

    The models Late 2006 Core 2 Duos 2,1 through Early 2008 4,1 can only run a maximum of 10.7 Lion.
    The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody through the Mid 2010 White Unibody model 7,1 can run 10.8 Mountain Lion.
    The Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD should still be available at this time from Apple for $19.99. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775 to purchase it. It may still be in the Legacy Products list. The App Store which is required to download 10.7 Lion is part of the 10.6.6 update.
      If you wait to long and they no longer have any in stock you will have to buy it from eBay or Apple resellers that still have stock. But you will have to pay a premium since the DVDs are no longer being made. Snow Leopard DVDs are already over $100 on Amazon.
