Maybe, maybe not.
Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..."  Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).
For full iCloud you need 10.7  But the question really is, do you need all the things it does?  I mean really?  Oh, you don't mention if this question is in conjunction with some device you own. To whom and how are you transferring files?

  • I have a Mac Book Pro but it says it can't upgrade to Lion, do i have to buy a new computer? How can i upgrade? I want to be able to use iCloud on this computer too.

    I have a 2GHz Intel Core Duo MacBook Pro with Max OSX version 10.6.8
    I would like to upgrade to Lion but it says I can't .
    So can I? how ?
    I would like to be able to use iCloud on this computer too.
    Thanks

    The minimum requirements require the intel core 2 duo processor.so I am sorry to say that you will need to update your mac if you want to run Lion and iCloud. Apple's http://www.apple.com/macosx/specs.html page for osx gives the minimum requirements.

  • I have an Ipod Touch and i have had it for about 3 years now, the screen has smashed just now and i was wondering if anyone knew how much it will be to replace the screen? I cant afford to buy a new ipod so I just want to replace the screen?

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.

    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
    1. iResq or Google for others.
    2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

  • HT1420 Feeling really stupid with my new MAC - I can't find the "Store" menu in iTunes as referenced in the support article on how to authorize a computer.  Where is that menu option?  I've looked all over the page, in my account, etc.

    Authorization and Deauthorization
    Macs:  iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
    Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
    More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.

  • I updated my 4s to ios7 and the phone is now completly dead. I tried to restore it with the new itunes but it won't restore. If you can't get the download be glad! Anyone have any ideas other than going out and buying a new Samsung phone?

    I updated my 4s to ios7 and the phone is now completly dead. I tried to restore it with the new itunes but it won't restore. If you can't get the download be glad! Anyone have any ideas other than going out and buying a new Samsung phone? I don't really need a paper weight.

    No not jailbroken. After the update which took about 45 minutes. The phone went black. Dead. Wouldn't restart. Using the new itunes I tried to restore it. It went through the motions; the white Apple and progress bar appeared on the iphone screen. Then I got a message "Itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode. You must restore this iphone before it can be used with itunes." Then the phone went completly dead again. I Repeated the process and got the same results. Is there another way to restore the phone if it's dead, besides itunes?

  • HT4759 If I have OS X 10.6.8 operating system can I upgrade to be able to use iCloud?

    If I have OS X 10.6.8 operating system can I upgrade to be able to use iCloud?

    You are posting in the iOS device forum, but I'm assuming you are talking about connecting a mac to icloud.  If so, you need to upgrade to at least OSX Lion to use icloud.  10.6.8 is not compatilble with icloud.

  • HT1444 My IMAC desktop with 10.6 operating system may need to be upgraded to 10.7 to use the Cloud.  I also have an IPhone that is 'on the cloud?' but I can't look on my MAC to see if the pictures I sent to the Cloud are there?  Do I have to buy a new sys

    My IMAC has a 10.6 operating system and I am trying to learn how to use the cloud to store pictures and upload files etc from my iphone.  Do I need to upgrade my operating system and how do I do that?

    You need to upgrade = purchase Lion in order to use iCloud on your iMac.  I use Dropbox with Snow Leopard.  No need to upgrade.

  • So I have a macbook with latest version 10.4.11 and bought an ipad, now i can't synch it neither can I download Itunes version 10.5 or higher as it is not compatible. Is there any other way than having to buy a new laptop? This seems ridiculous

    I have bought an ipad 2. My macbook is old mac os x version 10.4.11 and itunes version 9.2 which cant synch my new ipad as i need version 10.5 or later which however is not compatible with my mac os x. what can i do to synch my ipad without having to buy a new laptop?

    Maggie, if you go to http://www.everymac.com and look at the MacBook list, and find your machine, all 2006 and later had Core 2 Duo cpus so could use Mac OS X through Lion.  They only have 1 GB ram so that would have to be upgraded, can use up to 4 GB which would be preferred for Lion.  You could easily upgrade that machine to Snow Leopard, 10.6.8 is the highest, and raise the memory to 2 GB so it woud run better.  You can then use the latest iTunes and have easy syncing of your iPad.
    Memory can be found at Mac specialists like Crucial and OWC, http://www.macsales.com they guarantee their ram and have on-line videos on installing.
    Just some things to think about.

  • New Mac Mini or iMac (late 2012) for Logic Pro?

    Between these two specifically, which would be better for Logic Pro, and why?
    The new Mac Mini (mid-tier) has a 2.3gHz i7, and the low-end iMac which has a 2.7GHz i5.  Both are quad-core.  The i5 is faster in clock-speed, but the Mini sports the i7, which has hyperthreading.
    Can anybody offer any insight on which of these two computers would be better for Logic?

    While this is not quite the answer you be looking for...
    The 2011 Mac Mini Server, is in many ways the better bet for use with Logic because...
    It has a 2.0Ghz i7... so slightly slower than the 2012 models..but it is the i7 version with 8 Cores.. so it still flies..
    It comes with 2 x 500GB 7200rpm Hard Drives built in (Compared to 5400rpm Drives in the 2012 model)
    Memory easily upgraded to 16GB for about $90 via Amazon..
    ..and yoi get a free copy of OS X Server, if should wish to use it at some point in the future... (The MMS comes with the Standard OS X installed and you have to run the add on server program to install OS X server so if you don't need the server stuff, don't run the Server installation software and you'll be running standard OS X  as normal)
    USB2 instead of USB3 is about the only other important difference that matters for AudioExt Drive use but using the FW800 and Thunderbolt ports, via Tbolt to FW adaptors on the 2011 MMS removes the need for USB3 I find..
    Othert than that the 2011 and 2012 models are pretty much the same...
    But.. the real kicker is that Apple are currently selling refurbished ones (with full warranty) at $759.....  down from $999 originally...so they are quite the bargain..
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/FC936LL/A/refurbished-mac-mini-with-lion-serve r-20ghz-quad-core-intel-core-i7
    I bought two of these originally and have never regretted it.. So much so that i just picked up another as a spare...
    Got to be worth consideration... and at that price.. You could buy two... and use Vienna Ensemble Pro 5 to sync them together..
    A Basic Guide to VEP5 and Logic info that i wrote, can be found here...
    http://www.logicprohelp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=78956http://www.logicprohe lp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=78956
    ...add a screen and still save money conpared to buying a mid level iMac.... and you would be getting one **** of a punchy system for your buck.
    Other than that suggestion..
    In regards to the original question... Always go for the i7 models as hyperthreading adds 4 more (virtual) cores and that can really make a difference in performance compared to the 4 cores of an i5...

  • HT4889 How do I get the files that transferred from my old mac to this new mac to all merge so I am not using 2 set ups? In other words, I have stuff on the "new mac" and everything else on the "old mac" even though they are on the same computer.

    I need to merge my files that were transferred from my old mac to my new mac - for some reason I now have 2 separate setups on my new mac.  I need everything merged to one account.
    Thanks!

    Did you use Migration Assistant? If you set up your new Mac first, you created a user account and when you used MA later, it transferred over the old one. The only way to avoid that is to use Setup Assistant at the beginning of the setup. I used MA once and spent a long time getting rid of duplicates - you can either do that manually or start over: use recovery (Command + R or Command + Option + R keys) during startup, go to Utilities > Disk Utility, erase your disk and download/install again. While going through the setup, use Setup Assistant - it will port over your one and only user account rather than create another.

  • Is there a way for Labview to take control of a file that is already in use

    Is there a way in LabView to programatically take control of a file in use by another process?  I wish to write data to files that may be opened by another process, this data is time sensitive and acquired continuously so having my process wait until the file is available is not feasible.
    There should not be any other software accessing these files but sometimes windows is looking at them for some reason and I'm not sure how to make windows let go of them.  This does not accur often but it is annoying.

    Yes, use handle or process explorer from sysinternals. (see also).
    How is your labVIEW program structured? Could it be that your LabVIEW program itself holds on to the file from e.g. a previous file IO operation? Make sure references don't become invalid (e.g. via a "use default if unwired output tunnel) which would prevent the file from getting closed properly for example. Your program should open the file once at the start of the program and keep it open for the duration of the run. This way you should not have any intermittent problems accessing it.
    LabVIEW Champion . Do more with less code and in less time .
