HT4014 when you update to 10.6.3 will you loose your files and pictures?

when you update to 10.6.3 will you loose your files and pictures?

No.   But you probably need to go further than 10.6.3.   If you have already bought the retail disc you should read the link below (just to double check).
Minimum specs for Snow Leopard.        Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard -Read the Technical Specifications
Once you have bought and upgraded you will need to apply the Combo updater for Snow Leopard.          Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
And follow that by software update to pick up any iTunes or security updates that have since become available.

  • Why dont you take ios 7 and take out a feature so the ipod 4 can have enough space to take it I suggest when you touch your screen and the keyboard appears and make the old way.

    We're all users like yourself, if you would like to leave feedback to Apple go to Contact Us at the bottom of this page then go to Feedback and leave your concern. iOS 7 requires 512MB of RAM. Only the iPod 5 has 512MB RAM. The iPod 4 only has 256MB RAM. Hope this helps, Good luck.

  • HT4623 IF YOU DO THIS UPDATE YOU LOOSE YOUR CONTACTS AND PHOTOS FROM YOUR PHONE

    my iphone needs to be upgraded im still running on 4.2.1 but i dont want to looose my pics and my contacts  pls im kind of out of shape in this kind of stuff

    Connect to your computer you normally use itunes with, right click on your phones name, and click backup. once you have done that, disconnect your phone, and reconnect it, then click check for updates under the info tab, then click update. You dont lose your info, but you have a backup just in case.

  • What should you do when you download a file and it says that it can harm your computer?

    My school is giving students free Microsoft Office and I downloaded the one labled Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac. But when did the first step in installing it, which was download the Download the Secure Download Manager (SDM) installation file, a warning came up saying: This type of file can harm your computer. Do you want to keep SDM.pkg anyway? I'm not sure whether or not I should Discard it or Keep it.

    That's a warning from the Chrome browser. If you're sure that you downloaded the file directly from Microsoft, and not from any other website, you can ignore it.

  • When you download a file and choose "open with" rather than "save as", what temporary folder is the file saved to?

    When I downloaded an important document, I accidentally chose "open with" rather than "save as" and I'm unable to re download the file to save it from the internet. I know its somewhere on my computer, but I can't find it! What temporary folder are the "open with" files saved to?
    Thanks,
    Kayla23

    hello, such files will be stored in the default windows temp folder. you can get to it by pressing windows-key+R & opening: '''%temp%'''

  • In iMovie is there any way when you import your files to just make the file an alias like final cut does and not actually import and copy the whole file again into my mac. It's taking a lot of my space up. Thanks

    I just want to see if there is any way that I can import the files into iMovie as an alias like Final Cut Pro and Express does. I hate having to copy the file again because it takes up alot of space on my Mac. Thanks.

    No, but you can import your Event to an external drive from the import screen.
    It is also possible to create a symbolic link to another location. The link stays in your iMovie Events or iMovie Project folder, but the actual file resides somewhere else. I don't do it this way, so I can't share any details.

    Yeah but that's ok. This is an easy fix.
    Uninstall Acrobat from your old computer. Then reinstall using the downloadable installer here --->PDF converter, PDF editor, convert to PDF | Adobe Acrobat XI Pro subscription
    Then open it and go to Help and feed your serial number in there.

    Dear Brian:
    Create a Play List in iTunes.
    Control-Click and open "Export" in the highlighted Playlist in iTunes.
    With "Export" opened:
    1. Click on "Format" and choose "M3U";
    2. In "Save As" name your "WhatEverNamePlaylist.m3u"; and
    3. In "Where" tell the program where to send your "WhatEverNamePlaylist.m3u".
    You are done creating the Playlist.m3u in iTunes.
    Open "Subsonic Web Page".
    Left hand column open "Import playlist".
    In "Import playlist" click "Choose File" and open the "WhatEverNamePlaylist.m3u"; you created in iTunes.
    The "WhatEverNamePlaylist.m3u" should now occupy the space between "Choose File" and "OK".
    Click "OK".
    The file should now be in the "Playlist" on the left.

  • I have used Pages 09 and Keynote without any major problems until this new update. I have read many of the fixes but have a problem. When you get Pages 09 and Keynote back, Apples continues to want to update the 09 system. So it stays updated.

    I have used Pages 09 and Keynote without any major problems until this new update. I have read many of the fixes but have a problem. When you get Pages 09 and Keynote back, Apples continues to want to update the 09 system. So it stays updated. I have had to turn off my auto updating that was nice but I'll do it one at a time in order to keep the Pages 09 and Keynote. When something works don't mess with it. Any fixes out there?

    I can't say that I have had a problem playing videos in Flash because I could always play them in browsers other than Firefox.
    In Firefox Tools>options>Advanced Hardware acceleration is turned on.
    I don't know if that is different that tuning it off and on in Flash or not, but for now it is a moot point.
    As I stated in my previous message, after following all earlier suggestions/instructions nothing helped. But The latest one, someone suggested that maybe version 17 of Flash might be a stable version.
    I made no other changes except to install it, a few days ago, and so far so good.
    Many thanks for your help,
    Giovanni

  • With the newest auto update version of firefox there is now a white bar that pops up when you move your mouse over that area. i want that gone, how?

    when you move your mouse underneath the address bar a white bar pops up, this makes it so you can't click buttons or links on websites, like login buttons for example. also when in full screen mode you can no longer mouse over tabs at the top of the screen, only that white bar shows up. that prtty much kills full screen usage for me. so that popup white bar and the full screen with the white bar without tabs has just about ruined firefox for me. anyway to fix this would be great.

    '''''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Start Firefox in Safe Mode]'''''
    <BR>While you are in safe mode;<BR>
    '''''Firefox Options > Advanced > General'''''.<BR>
    Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''.
