HT1338 Update MacBook version 10.5? compatibility issues?

If I update MacBook version 10.5 to a newer version, will I have compatibility issues with opening existing documents on my computer? Also, how can I convert files created in Pages to make them compatible with PC users? When I save as a PDF, others can open it, but not manipulate it.

Hi Tricia,
Depends how far up you upgrade, are you thinking 10.6, 10.7, 10.8?
For PDF editing, they/you'd need something like Adobe Acrobat Pro or PDF Pen, but not a great option in my mind, what else does Pages save in for choices?

How to update macbook, version OS X 10.5.8 what next version?

how to update macbook version the current software is OS X 10.5.8 what next version?
have snow loepard v6 on usb stick but doesnt seem to work?
any ideas?

When you hold down the Option key when you hear the starting chime does the USB stick show up as a viable start-up disk? If not then you may have to buy and use the DVD.
The 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD is in the Apple online store. You can get it for $19.99. You will need to be running 10.6.8 to access the App Store to order Lion or Mountain 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.

Is there a compatibility issue with the Current USB 3 external Hard drives and MacBook Pro 2011 (USB 2)?

I am currently having bad hangs with my 13" MacBook Pro (2011) which I book 2012 ad a New external Harddrive (WD My Passport Edge) which was given to me as a gift.
Friends of mine told me there is a compatibility issue between the USB 3 cord and the USB outlet of my MacBook Pro.
Although this shouldnt be the case as the box of the Hard drive I got said it was compatible.
I even downloaded the WD Drive Utilities and sometimes whenthe Harddrive is plugged in the Utilities doean't Open but just bleeps in the Applications Dock.
Before I used the Harddrive I read a lot from the WD Manual and went to their site and downloaded a firmware update so I really don't know what the problem is.
What I am afraid of is that I may lose some files if I place them in the external Harddrive.
Can anyone help me with this or should I be asking for a replacement harddrive?
This is my first experience with an external hard drive as I never used one before.
Thank you very much.

To be honest, I've had back luck with Western Digital drives and I avoid them at all costs. If I were you, I would return the WD drive and look at externals from OWC or MacMall (LaCie, even G-Tech).
That's just my personal opinion, mind you...

Premiere CS6 and CC: any compatibility issues working back and forth between both versions?

Hello,
What are the compatibility issues with Premiere CS6 and CC versions? Can the user go back and forth? I run a computer lab at a college and we will be upgrading to CC but many students will still be using the older CS6 version of Premiere until we update all the computers.... Will students run into problems?
Thanks,
dmichael

My concern is going back and forth between the versions... I read somewhere there are compatibility issues with Premiere....Can the user working in CC go back to premiere CS6? and vice versa?
Thanks,
dmichael

Every time you update there are compatibility issues. Especially with Anti-virus programs. WHY? When publishing updates it seems that it would behoove you to contact ALL Virus programs.

Every time I have FF updates there are major compatibility issues with anti virus, Adobe Flash, Java, & HP printer. This happens whenever Firefox has updates unless I wait 3-4 weeks to update. Impossible to live with these issues constantly.

It's 6 weeks between Firefox version updates, not 8 weeks.
Firefox doesn't force developers to create add-ons for Firefox, it is their choice. If they aren't up to the challenge of the fast release schedule, maybe they need to rethink their commitment to add-ons for Firefox and quit the game if they can't keep up with it.

I am using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit OS.I've never had this problem before... today I opened iTunes and it prompted me to download the newest version. I use iTunes all the time and have updated it multiple times with no issues. During the installation process it gave me an error message that said:
Runtime error!
Program C:\Program Files\iTunes.exe
R0634
An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
I quit the installation, uninstalled iTunes and rebooted my computer. I now receive a similar message with a slight difference:
Runtime error!
Program C:\Program Files (x86)...
R0634
An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
I did not leave anything out from the error message. It doesn't point to a specific file, it just ends with "(x86)..." Every time I boot up my computer, this error message pops up on my desktop.
How do I repair this issue? I have found multiple suggested solutions but am unsure which one is the best, and I don't want to try a bunch of different things for fear I may make the problem worse. I would like to try and fix this myself if possible but I need to know if that is really possible or if I need to take my computer to someone for repairs. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!!

Hi lustyln,
I'm having a little trouble understanding all of what you are trying to explain. From what I can tell, it sounds like your PC has a lot of software problems and you want to know what is supposed to be there and what isn't.
For reference, here are your product specifications:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&dlc=en&docname=c01893242&lc=en&product=4043282
To get your PC software back to how it was when it was first purchased, run a system recovery:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&dlc=en&docname=c01867418&lc=en&product=4043282
I hope this helps.

Hello:
Thank you for the update for remote access for desktops.
Personally, I do not want to give remote access to anyone but myself as privacy is my friend. Can this remote desktop software still be for me personally unless I allow access and for my MAC lap top only? What if I do not update? I do use this lap top in other countries. compatibility issues with what?

Apple Remote Desktop is off be default. It has to be enabled for some one to be able to remotely connect to the computer. And then, you still have to have a user name and password on the computer to remotely connect with.
If you want to see if remote access has is enabled for Apple Remote Desktop; you can find the setting in, Apple Menu, System Prefrences, Sharing. If it's enabled, Remote Management or Screen Sharing will be checked.
Beucase Apple Remote Desktop Agent is part of the Mac Operating System; even if your not using it, Apple Software Updates will from time to time offer updates for ARD Agent. Software Updates can some times be stacked ontop of each other; so chosing not to install an update, can mean other updates you may want may not be offered. At least until you install the updates those updates require. Also software updates can improve the security of your computer.

Since updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1 I'm having compatibility issues with my speakers and my iTunes wifi sync isn't working. Anyone else having the same problems?

Since updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1 I'm having compatibility issues with my speakers / docking station and my iTunes wifi sync isn't working. Anyone else having the same problems? Both worked fine until the update...

Okay. I got it working again by setting it up as a new phone instead of just syncing. Then I backed up. All is good today.

MacBook Pro Retina Late 2013 Compatibility issue with Bose Companion 5 USB Speakers on Mavericks

Hi, I wonder if somebody has compatibility issues of new MacBook Pro Retina (late 2013) and Bose Companion 5 USB speakers? They work fine on a left USB port on my MacBook Pro, but doesn't work at all on a right one: USB speakers are not recognised or if recognised as "Uknown Audio Device", they doesn't work any way and iTunes stops playing till I take USB cable out.
I tested them already on two identical machines - the same issue: left USB port works fine, right one - not.
While comparing, I tested this audio device also with other MacBooks:
MacBook Pro 15" 2008 (Mavericks) - both USB ports work fine
MacBook 13" 2010 (Mountain Lion) - both USB ports work fine
MacBook Pro 13" Retina early 2013 (Mavericks) - both USB ports work fine
So it is somehow related exactly to the MacBook Pro Retina 15" Retina late 2013 with Maverics. I guess some sound card and USB port communication issue. Does any body exeriences such problems as well?

Hi,
Im having USB problems with storage devices and android phone connections
Thanks

Browser compatibility issues with different versions of IE

I'm looking for an online resource or book on identifying/troubleshooting JSP browser compatiblility issues focusing on recent versions of IE (5.0 - 6.0).
Any sugguestions?

A JSP runs on a server. It is actually a servlet that merely outputs HTML (usually) to the browser. Your browser does not (really) know the difference between a JSP and a static HTML page and PERL cgi generated page. There is no interaction what-so-ever between the JSP portion and your browser. There will not be any books about compatibility issues between JSP and browsers since its a non-issue.
The previous reply suggesting JavaScript conflicts is entirely true. If you want a flipping nightmare job, write javascript that is compatible on NN 3.0 and above and IE 4.0 and above. It's a godd**ned mess.

Hello:
This is not an area I have much experience in......I rarely insert DVDs and I have never had a similar problem.
When the DVD is in the drive (and DVD players is open) click on File>get disk info.
