HT1338 What if I have to stop the OS X update in the middle?

I am trying to update my MacBook air and I'm on a very slow Internet connection what happens if I stop and go someplace else for faster download?

It will pause and you will need to go back in and resume it. Is it an update like 10.8.1 to 10.8.2 or is it a download of a new OS (Lion or Mountain Lion)

    Your iMac should be almost silent.

    My word gives a message of "The disk is full trying to write to Macintosh HD. Free some space on this drive, or save the document on another disk."
    what do I do to stop the message from popping up all the time? I have only had my mac for 7 months and haven't saved a ton of stuff.

    Kathryn,
    Is MS Word the only app that is causing this issue, if so then it's probably a problem with Word. If I'm correct about it only occuring with Word then please re-post to:

  • How do i find out what numbers i have included on the find my phone app?

    how do i find out what numbers i have included on the find my phone app?

    Sorry, but what do you mean by "what numbers I have included"? Find My iPhone doesn't store nor go by phone numbers, if that's what you're referring to. It's done by the Apple ID you used to set up Find My iPhone on the device you wish to track, and the devices will be shown by name.
    You may need to explain further what it is you're asking or are trying to accomplish.
    Regards.

  • I forgot my password and deleted my email account.  How do I regain it so I can see what purchases I have made in the past?

    I forgot my old password under a deleted email address.  Is there a way to get access to that account so that I can see what purchases I have made in the past?  This was at least 5 years ago that I did this?  Thank you.

  • What is that circle thing in the middle of pictures?

    Just upgraded to CS 5.5 from CS3.
    In InDesign, when I drop a picture in, what is that circle thing in the middle of the image when I move my mouse over it? If I click it, it switches to a direct selection of the image. That is damn annoying. Can I turn that off?
    Also, when I rotate a picture using the Rotate 90° Counter or Rotate 90° Clockwise buttons, it's not rotating from the center. It's rotating on the upper left corner.. if that makes sence. Can I fix that somehow somewhere?

    Easiest way to avoid it is click anywhere else in the box except the circle, takes some getting use to annoyed me the first week or so as well. Not sure if it can be disabled.
    Also, if it's rotating from a point other than center, make sure the center black box is selected on your attributes bar reference points next to the X Y W H selectors, it determines where you rotate from.

  • Does the IE CS6 version have Support for the Middle Eastern tool set? - left to right typing etc.

    Does the IE CS6 version have Support for the Middle Eastern tool set? - left to right typing etc.

    I assume IE means International English, as opposed to English North America (aka US English). There is Middle Eastern and Hebrew support via an English user interface for programs that support it such as InDesign.
    You can change the install language by launching the Adobe Application Manager and clicking on your name in the top left to bring up a context menu. From the menu select Preferences and then click the drop down for Languages. See the screen shot below:

  • HT1338 what if i have a 2008 OS, can i go straight to the most up to date OS

    what if i have a 2008 OS, can i go straight to the most up to date OS

    Any Macbook made after 2007 can be upgraded to the latest OS. 10.8
    If you have the 2006 model (identifier is MacBook 1,1) it can only be upgraded to 10.6.8
    1 To update to the latest, first you have to get to 10.6  by buying a retail DVD by over the phone  to an Apple Store.
    2. Install 10.6 and software update to 10.6.8
    3. online at the App Store, purchase 10.8

  • I use MacIntosh, system 10.5.8. But I keep getting pop-ups . I have tried to install Firefox and it responds saying it is not compatible with my systems architecture. What should I do to stop the pop-up?

    I use G4 MacIntosh, System 10.5.8. I keep getting pop-ups asking me to upgrade my version of Firefox. But when I try to install I get the message that Firefox cannot operate with my computers architecture. How can I stop the pop-ups?

    I believe Firefox 4 is Intel only. That means it will not install on a PPC Mac. You can get TenFourFox, which is made for PPCs.

  • What event is captured from using the middle Joystick button?

    Hello,
    I would like to ask if someone knows what kinds of events are triggered when user uses the middle joystick button or wheel (mostly seen with HTC phones and Nexus).
    Is it scroll, click, or everything?
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi,
    it is KeyboardEvent, for pressing the pad it is Enter keyCode returned, for scrolling it is arrow key codes returned (Keyboard.UP, Keyboard.DOWN, Keyboard.LEFT, Keyboard.RIGHT), use following handler (Key down event):
                   //listen for key input
                   stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, onKeyPressed, false, 0, true);
              protected function onKeyPressed(e:KeyboardEvent):void
                   switch (e.keyCode)
                        case Keyboard.HOME:
                             //NativeApplication.nativeApplication.exit();// - doesn't work
                             //e.preventDefault();// - doesn't work
                        break;
                        case Keyboard.MENU:
                             e.preventDefault();
                        break;
                        case Keyboard.BACK:
                             //NativeApplication.nativeApplication.exit();
                             e.preventDefault();
                        break;
                        case Keyboard.SEARCH:
                             e.preventDefault();
                        break;
                        case Keyboard.ENTER:
                             e.preventDefault();
                        break;

  • TS1389 What if I have done all the steps apple says, and I still can't authorize my computer to play certain purchased songs

    I followed all the steps on the apple page, and just a few of the songs I just purchased cannot be authorized for some reason.  It keeps prompting me, and I keep entering my password and it says this computer is already authorized.  ARG! 
    Weirdly, when I look at the info of the songs, some list my name as "Purchased by", but the songs I can't play don't have a "Purchased By" line, but all songs show the correct "Account Name"

    They were purchased by another Apple ID.
    If you are not sure what other Apple IDs you may have, go to appleid.apple.com and click on the link that says "Find your Apple ID".
    You are needing to authorize the Apple ID that those other songs were purchased under.

    Snow Leopard, Mac OS X 10.6, is not iCloud compatible.  You need to upgrade to Lion, Mac OS X 10.7, via a download from the app store...$29 (US), provided you had at least 10.6.6.  You can upgrade to 10.6.8 for free as part of the software updated function, then go to the app store and purchase the Lion download.
    When you do that, before installing Lion, make a copy of the Lion Installer from the Applications folder where it downloads to some other location, such as your Documents folder, so you have a backup copy.
    For Lion you must have at least an Intel Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7, or Xenon processor, 2 GB memory though 4 GB is better and 7 GB free space on the hard drive.
    As part of 10.7.2 you end up with the iCloud connection.

    In any case you should be able to open your Previous Windown through the History Menu, and then also from there all your previous windows (might be 5 total)
