Does your MacBook Air meet the other requirements?
To install Mavericks, you need one of these Macs:
iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later),
MacBook Pro (15-inch or 17-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or later)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later)
Xserve (Early 2009)
Your Mac also needs:
OS X Mountain Lion, Lion, or Snow Leopard v10.6.8 already installed
2 GB or more of memory
8 GB or more of available space

  • HT201364 Why can't i download maverick when my mac comes with it preinstalled?

    I bought a new Mac Book Pro with OS X Maverick. Why can't i download the installer from App Store?

    Yes Mavericks can be downloaded but is it the *right* one is what Tuttle was getting at.  Don't take our world for it, take it from Apple:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1159#MacBook_Pro
    Notice that even the 13" and 15" Retina models have a different version number.
    Here is another thread on the matter:

  • HT201364 I have a brand new macbook pro, but it won't let me download mavericks

    I have a brand new macbook pro, but it won't let me download mavericks

    You have got a Late 2013 MacBook Pro.
    This MacBook uses a special OS X Mavericks version which is newer than the one available in the Mac App Store, so you cannot download OS X Mavericks from the Mac App Store now. Instead, if you need to reinstall OS X, you will have to do this through Recovery (hold Command and R keys while your computer is starting up).
    You will be able to download OS X Mavericks from the Mac App Store when your Mac uses the same OS X version as all other Macs. This may happen when Apple launches OS X 10.9.2

  • HT201364 I have Snow Leopard 10.6.8,how long should it take to download Mavericks,I have Ha High Speed Light connection

    I have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and I have been told that I may download Mavericks and be able to use Facetime when I do,is this correct and I would like to know even if I can't use Facetime,is it prudent for me to still download Mavericks?
    I consider myself a rookie so please bear with me!

    Just so you know, there is a version of Facetime that works with 10.6.8.

  • HT3209 I have a brand new Mac Mini...why can I not download Cloud Atlas in HD?

    Why can I download some HD movies in 1080p but not others?  Another one that won't work is Disney Nature Wings of Life

    iTunes is not stable is the simple answer to why this happens. Get use to it. It has happened to me about 5 times... It just happened again to me when trying to download Mama in HD, even though I have a 2012 Mac Mini 2.6GHz quadcore i7, 16 GB of RAM, 256GB SSD and the Thunderbolt Display to boot. And iTunes support has never been helpful on this for me (in fact, support told me it's because my new Mac Mini wasn't capable of playing HD content! ***?), or helpful on any iTunes related problems I have had. Their support team knows very very little about anything. I will tell you though, that everytime it happens, I just go to my library where I have a few HD movies already on my hard drive, and I play one of those without any issue. After doing that, I go back to the Store and I am able to rent the HD film. Don't know why; maybe it resets the glitch somehow... oh, and Airplay is super unstable too, on my Mini, MBP, and wife's new MBA. I have to reboot my computer to get it to feed the audio with the video 50% of the time. Apple has been becoming a disappointment after disappointment...

  • I have update adobe flash, and it still crashes, why can't y'all fix the problem?

    everyday sometimes 3 or 4 times firefox crash....i have updated adobe flash.....

    Mozilla doesn't make Flash, Adobe does, so it's up to them to fix their stuff.
    I'm still using Shockwave Flash 10.1 r53.64 and don't have the crashing problems that to two newer 10.2 and 10.3 versions are having. But I am using WinXP, not Win7, so YMMV.

  • I subscribed for Cloud with adobe photoshop cc and lightroom 5. Why can't I download the app from the Cloud centre?

    Can you please help me?

    Have you already got LR installed?  If so, you might have to uninstall it first.  Otherwise try https://forums.adobe.com/community/download_install_setup/creative_cloud_faq

  • My Macbook Pro (early 2011) has 4 gig of memory and is using all of it and running slow.

    My (early 2011) MacBook Pro has 4 gig of memory and is using all of it and running slow.  I am planning to double memory, but any ideas about why it's using all that memory?  (Yosemite 10.10.2). 

    When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.

  • How do I add more memory to my Imac, I only have 1GB of memory and need 2GB to download Yosemite!

    How do I add more memory to my Imac, I only have 1GB of memory and need 2GB to download Yosemite?

    Janet,
    This is why the question rkaufmann87 asked about your model is so important:
    [click chart to enlarge if needed]
    The list covers the early iMacs with Intel processors that shipped with either OS 10.4 or 10.5 and have only two RAM slots. As you can see, some have limits to what version of OSX you can install. If the step rkaufmann requests does not narrow down your model, you can do one more thing.
    While the "About this Mac" window is open, click the "More Info..." button at the bottom of that window to get this (assuming you are really running OS 10.5.8 as shown in your profile):
    The code I've indicated with the red arrow corresponds to the codes in the second column on the chart. Post the code your computer reports--again don't post a serial number.
    If your iMac shipped with only 1GB RAM, I fear it is one of the earliest models that cannot be upgraded all the way to Yosemite.

  • Why can't I download apps onto my iphone when i have enough memory and my apple password is correct.

    I have sucessfully downloaded apps on my iphone many times in the past. Now, when I select and try to install an app it begins to download, I put in my password and then everything reverts back to the start. I have lots of memory and even free apps won.t download. I've looked and read all the support manuals online and nothing helps.
    Has anyone had this problem before and knows how to help. I would appreciate any advice.

    You will have to call Apple and ask for Account Security.

    I have a macbook air bought in 2008 and am unsure if it can be upgraded to maverick.  Is there a serial number beyond which it is possible to upgrade?  I know that first I need to upgrade to mountain lion or some other fierce cat.
    The model identifier is MacbookAir1,1

    No that system will not run Mavericks.

    Hello, for a multilingual catalog project I would have to know how and with what tool I can place text from Excel or a database in text frames / tables. The basic idea is to provide the text box with an ID (eg << text_eng_art_nr_987654>>) and above to make the connection. Does anyone have a tip. Thanks in advance !!!
    Bernd

    Data merge is really useful in many circumstances, but my first question would be about the size of the project. A really large catalog might be better handled by processing an IDML in some kind of translation memory tool.
    If all of your multilingual content is already in Excel, then it's probably best handled with a Data Merge. Note that you can't save Unicode CSV out of Excel for the merge, so for many languages you'll need to save "Unicode Text" out of Excel and tweak your import settings when you select a Data Source for encoding (Unicode) and delimiter (tab instead of comma).

  • I have an ipod 8generation and i deleted all of my things to download a few shows then deleted them to get my things back but it wont let me it says i have no space. Why?

    I have an ipod 8generation and i deleted all of my things to download a few shows then deleted them to get my things back but it wont let me it says i have no space. Why?

    Hello,
    Sometimes that you see something it saves in cache, (or could be that the show is in progress to be deleted) so here's the problem.
    Just restart your device to see if the cache of the shows deletes themselves.
    Then try to import your music again.
    Cheers.
    You can use this tool to quickly clean all the cache that needs to be deleted-

  • My iPad does not have sound when on the Internet, including YouTube, but does have sound with iTunes and other apps.  How can I correct this?

    My iPad does not have sound when on the Internet, including YouTube, but does have sound with iTunes and other apps.  How can I correct this?

    If you are sure that you have sound in other apps - and if you can still hear keyboard clicks and get notifications, then system sounds are not muted. Try this and see if it works.
    Close all apps completely and reboot the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
