HT201364 Can't download Mavericks. Need help please

I seem to have all the required specs to upgrade to Mavericks, but it says I can't. I have a 17 inch MacBook Pro, 2Gs Memory, 70 G space. Can someone please assist?

There was a More Info button. When I clicked it, I got the Overview where it would logically seem that I'd see the year there, but no luck. I see processor, memory, graphics, serial number (starts W87), and Software.
There are also links for Displays, Storage, Memory, Support and Service. None of them have the necessary info. There's a link at the bottom for System Report. I clicked there and there's a Hardware Overview. We've got Model Name, Model Identifier, etc. But no year or Model Number.

  • Can't download Mavericks. Help. It says that the app is "downloaded" but is no where to be found in my computer.

    I downloaded the free upgrade of OS Mavericks then when I was trying to install it, there was an error and prompted me to uninstall. I uninstalled it and tried to download it again. It says that "downloaded" not the option to install. How can I download it again?

    Disable anti virus softwrare if installed
    Check your settings in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Firewall > Firewall Options
    Make sure Gatekeeper is enabled
    Open System Preferences > Security & Privacy then select the General tab.
    Make sure either Mac App Store or Mac App Store and identified developers is selected. If that area is grayed out, click the padlock icon to proceed.
    OS X: About Gatekeeper
    Apps such as Little Snitch, MacKeeper, and CleanMyMac can intefere with downloading from the App Store.

  • HT201364 Can't download Mavericks installer on recent Mac. "OS Mavericks cannot be installed on this computer", which is running 9.1.

    I want to download the Mavericks installer so I have a backup installer that does not require the internet.  Although, the App Store button allows me to download, I get a message that Mavericks cannot be installed on this computer.
    Computer is late 2013 retina MBP 13" with lots of memory.
    My OS is 10.9.1 (13B3116) currently running.
    Is the App Store version of Mavericks too old (jan 16) for my rMBP?
    Rick

    Judging by the build number, it appears you have a special build of Mavericks installed and the App Store version (13B42) won't work with your computer.
    Kappy - if I try to download Mavericks I get the message below, so apparently I can down load it again?
    I also have a copy of the installer in my Applications folder, although it is in a folder.

  • Updated to ios6. Now when I try to download apps (ex. Craigslist and song pop) the free button is in light gray aka I can't download it. Help please.

    There are some apps that are in the darker shade of gray, where it says "free" or ".99" etc and I can download them. I purchased this iPad used, it works fine, and I do not recall having any issues with being able to access apps before I upgraded to the new ioS6, although I only used it for a day or so before updating the o.s. so perhaps I didn't have time to have noticed this problem with the old o.s.. In looking at other q/a's about this topic I noticed people saying to make sure there is not an app stuck downloading, I checked and that's not an issue, I also tried signing out of my account and turning the iPad off then back on....that did not solve my issue.

    You need to contact iTunes Customer Support.
    I had the exact same problem and they gave me a full refund so I could download the movies again.
    The cause is at Apple's end and you can't fix it from yours.

  • IPad2 memory full of photos, can't delete. Need help, please!

    My iPad2 memory is full of photos because of the mistakes I made when downloading pictures from my camera. Pictures have been downloaded multiple times, plus video from my camera and I videoed a recent family reunion for my dad, who is no longer able to travel and see his family. When I tried to sync my iPad through my pc on iTunes it had errors and did not update. Then I started getting messages on my iPad that my memory was full and I needed to delete photos and videos.
    I was able to go to photos, select the arrow on the top right, which gave me the delete option and could select pictures which were downloaded on my iPad and delete them. After deleting about 40 pictures, the delete button no longer worked and I can't get it to work again. I have turned off the iPad, selected one pic at a time, several pics, everything I can think of, but no luck. Does anyone have any advice for me? I would be very grateful for your input.

    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

  • Can't make purchases need help please

    When I try to make a purchase and add my billing info then submit it, it tells me to contact itunes support and won't let me make purchases. Any idea what to do?

    Thanks for the tip, but that wasn't it.
    If you have any other suggestions, please let me know... I can't figure this out for the life of me. I can't drag any icon or file. But the mouse does work for clicking... (ie. files can be opened).

  • Can't send emails, need help please...

    Hi all,
    I set up my new ipad a couple of days ago and all went well. Yesterday i synched it to my computer again and it acted like it had never seen the ipad and I had to redo everything (and lost all of my content). Everything seems to be working I just can't send emails. I have rechecked and everything has been put in correctly. Any ideas?
    Thanks!
    Martina

    Thanks for answering and for the link. I tried deleting the email address and rein putting the info and I still can't send an email. I know the settings are correct because before the synch I was able to send and receive. Any other ideas please?

  • HT201364 can't download mavericks from apple store

    I have a new MBP , ME294LL. Im trying to reinstal mavericks. Any ideas? Im getting 'OSx Mavericks cannot be installed on this computer' when trying to download from the appstore.

    That computer uses a machine-specific build of 10.9 which is newer than the current Mac App Store version. Restart wth the Command and R keys held down and reinstall it from the recovery partition instead.

    Need help please.
    Thank you.

    OK. I am having a little bit of trouble understanding your responses, but let's start with this since you are having an issue with other apps as well.
    Reboot your iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up completely and then try again.

  • I just purchased Time Capsule today.  I ONLY want to use it as an external drive.  I do not need it for Time Machine. I can see the TC in my finder, but when I click on a file or video to drag and drop, I get message that TC can't be modified. Help please

    I just purchased Time Capsule today.  I ONLY want to use it as an external drive.  I do not need it for Time Machine. I need to free up room on my computer. As of now, I can't even load updates. I can see the TC in my finder, but when I click on a file or video to drag and drop, I get message that TC can't be modified. Help please!

    I agree with Kappy.. passing files and especially via wireless is slow as slow.
    Just need to be sure your TC is the new AC model??
    And the OS on the computer is Lion?
    Have you completed the setup of the TC via the utility? You do still need to get internet via the TC so it has to be plugged into the main router..
    Give us the full picture of the network.
    Then we can help you get into it.. whether you should put your files on it is another question.

  • How can I add a new Template to My Templates in Pages? I've read most of the discussions on the subject but it doesn't work for me. By the time I reach the Templates folder, I only see templates for Numbers and not for Pages. Need help, please.  Thanks

    Si vous avez utilisé la commande Save As Template depuis Pages, il y a forcément un dossier
    iWork > Pages
    contenant Templates > My Templates
    comme il y a un dossier
    iWork > Numbers
    contenant Templates > My Templates
    Depuis le Finder, tapez cmd + f
    puis configurez la recherche comme sur cette recopie d'écran.
    puis lancez la recherche.
    Ainsi, vous allez trouver vos modèles personnalisés dans leur dossier.
    Chez moi, il y en a une kyrielle en dehors des dossiers standards parce que je renomme wxcvb.template quasiment tous mes documents Pages et wxcvb.nmbtemplate à peu près tous mes documents Numbers.
    Ainsi, quand je travaille sur un document, je ne suis pas ralenti par Autosave.
    Désolé mais je ne répondrai plus avant demain.
    Pour moi il est temps de dormir.
