I had to delete everything on my computer and install the operating system again , but I had to install Snow Leopard because it was the cd that came with the computer when I bought it. The problem is that I had already paid for the OS Lion and even had upgraded to the Mavericks . I do not think it's fair to have to pay again and I would like to upgrade my operating system without having to pay again for the same system.
Hi anatuta,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you are trying to upgrade your Mac to a newer version of OS X, after completing a fresh install of Snow Leopard.
If you have already purchased and downloaded OS X Lion and Mavericks, you should be able to find these items in the Purchased section of the Mac App Store.
You may find the steps in this article helpful with finding the items:
Mac App Store: Finding your purchased apps - Apple Support
If you do not see the items in the Purchased section, they may be hidden:

All the best,

I couldn't close i cloud without agreeing to erase i calendar? I didn't realize it would delete everything on my computer and not sync?!
lululThelp,
Does this article explain what happened to you: iCloud: Calendar & reminder data removed from iCal when disabling iCloud Calendar?
If so, do you have any backups?
Can you still see your calendars on iCloud.com?
If you are syncing any devices, do they still contain your data.
What version of OS X are you using? -
My ipod will add apps happily but it won't delete any so they've built up so now I can't add anymore. . I can't take it back to the factory settings because I don't know the 4 digit code. Please can someone help?! xxx
Sorry. You can't get help here. Ask whoever wrote the jailbreak.
You can try putting it in DFU mode (google is your friend), but that's all we can suggest.
Jailbreaking voids your warranty and AppleCare agreement and forfeits all rights to support. -

There is no way to stop iTunes from doing exactly what it is designed to do.
The iPhone is designed to sync with one and only one computer.
If you have moved/copied your iTunes library from your old computer to your new one, then iTunes wiping your device is no problem. You would simply sync and iTunes will put all the content back. -
If you install the Mountian Lion will it delete everything off your computer
If you install the new Mountain Lion software for Mac will it wipe your computer
No, but you shouldn't be installing it. Right now the only kind you can download are illegal versions and even if the installer doesn't wipe it that doesn't mean there isn't something hidden inside it that will.

My IPod will not connect with my computer has been freezing up and I have already tried restoring it. Does anyone know of anything else that can done?
- Have you tried resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next connect the iPod to your computer. If it shows in iTunes restore the iPod.
- If it did not show, see if placing the iPod in recovry mode will make it visible so you can restore the iPod. -

I need to completely remove Firefox from my computer and then reload it because the current one on my computer is compromised... I don't want to lose my settings, background, and toolbars if at all possible... my computer has been having a lot of problems for a long time, finally got a hacker and viruses removed but programs and apps are still having problems and all have suggested a compromised browser along with the browser itself having issues with "stop script", "not responding", freezing, crashing, and blue screen...

You can transfer files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)<br />

If I restored my new iPhone from iCloud backup, and I delete the old iPhone backup to make room on iCloud to back up my new phone, will it delete everything on the new phone?
I have this exact same issue. Replaced my iPhone 4s with the new iPhone 5s, setting up my new iPhone 5s to restore from iCloud. This completed and now I am unable to delete my old iPhone 4s iCloud backup (consuming 15.1 GB of my 20GB allocation). How can I delete it, so that I get my 15 GB back? I am not going to invest in additional iCloud storage, because I will be 15 GB down from the off.

HT4759 if i delete my backup on my phone will it delete everything off my icloud?
im trying to download ios 7 so i want my phone clear & i want to know if i can delete the backup on my iphone 4? o will it delete everything on my icoud?
Go to Settings>iCloud and delete the account, then sign back in with the ID of the account you want to use. It only deletes the account from your device, not from iCloud. This won't effect any other devices you may have that are still using the account.
