HT6114 Im trying to update my software but when i click on the apple up top, it says no updates for my computer yet im only at 10.5
please help me update my software so i can update itunes to back my phone up
First you need to buy > Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.)
Then update it to > Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
At that point you can update iTunes, then connect and sync your iPhone.
Then if your MacBook meets the > OS X Mavericks: System Requirements, you can go to the Mac App Store and upgrade to Mavericks.

I have a Mac Book Pro with 10.7.5 and I am trying to upgrade to the free Mavericks but when I click on the download it doesn't do anything. What am I dong wrong?
A couple things to try.
1) Quit the App Store, wait a few minutes, then open it and check the Purchases tab. Is there a progress bar.
2) Boot into Safe Mode and try to download it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564 -
I bought a new battery for my MacBook today. I put it into my computer, but when I click on my battery icon it says no battery availble. I would like to know why?
Hi....
Try restarting your Mac ...
"Keep in mind that once the new battery is inserted, you will need to press the power button to start up the computer."
From here > MacBook Pro: How to remove or install the battery
If it restarts ok the battery icon should be available from the status menu bar. -
No more details. Just the javascript:void(0); that appears each time I try to click on the product I'm trying to order

I need to update my iPad 2 to the latest operating system. When I open iTunes it says that I can do this. I start the download and update. When it's done it says it failed due to the system time out. What does this mean and how can I fix it?
disable your anti-virus and firewalls and try the update again.

I seem to be having only a problem with the store. So I cannot buy anything. However I can update the apps.
Try this:
1. Settings>General>Date & Time>Turn off set automatically
2. Set date one year ahead
3. Go back to iTunes and try again.
4. You will get the same error.
5. Go back to settings general date and time and turn back on 'set automatically'
Try connecting to iTune Store again. -
I'm trying to update iTunes software, but when I go to Help/Check for updates, I continue to get the message: "The iTunes update server could not be contacted. Please check your Internet connection or try again later." Is there another way to update?
Try updating using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:

When I try to open the iphoto it keeps on asking for the software update, but when I click on the software update it says that all the software in the computer are up to date. I still cant open the iphoto, what should I do?
How old is your Mac? If it's very recent you need to update via the App Store
If you purchased at the App Store you need to update via the App Store
Otherwise you update via Softare Update
If you have moved iPhoto from the default location (i.e. into a Folder) then the updater won't find it. Move it back.
If you have renamed iPhoto, the updater won't find it. Change it back.

when I sync my iphone it says that there is newer version of the software but when I click the 'update' button I am told that 'itunes' is the latest version? There seem to be a few apps that are not compatible with my phone and I am wondering if that is because it is not up to date or beacuse it is a 3gs?
Snow Leopard requirements here:

I recommend no less than 2GB's of RAM. There is no download for SL, you must purchase from Apple, $29 at any Apple store. Leopard is no longer sold by Apple. About the only place you can find a retail disk is eBay, however the prices are getting ridiculous. -
I downloaded an update for my Safari web browser to "snow leopard". When I click on the .dmg file, a window opens up with a .pkg file but when I click on the .pkg file I get a prompt saying that it doesn't know what program to open it with.
I suspect if you're trying to open a file in 08 that's been opened in 09 the file has been updated to 09 and will not open in 08.

I am trying to buy an app (Aperture). I don't see a "buy" icon in the app store. If I go to Apple site, there is a buy icon but when I click it, I get a dialogue box saying the link needs to be opened with an application. Please help. Thanks.
Hi ...
Installing the OS X Lion Update 10.7.3 (Client Combo) will reinstall the App Store for you.
Restart your Mac after the combo is installed then try purchasing Aperture. -
New ipad3,just getting started,trying to get on FaceTime but when I try to set up a message appears saying my email address is already in use. I can not get any further, help please
Millietrixie-
Are you trying to call yourself to test FaceTime? If so, you must have a second E-Mail address registered with your Apple ID. In other words, there must be a different E-Mail address on each unit.

The update option on the app store shows a notification that I have 'n' numbers of updates but when I click on the update option it only shows a blank screen. Even after updating the apps individually from the purchased option, the update option still shows a blank screen instead of "All you applications are up to date". Please help.
Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. According to Fly150in another discussion, this will work.
If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
1. Go to App Store
2. Select Purchased
3. Select All
4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
5. Select update on the Apps
This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store. -
Hi, I am not able to restore my ipad (I have tried different techniques but it stays frozen at the Apple logo level). If I try through my computer, it forces me to reset factory settings erasing my Media content which I haven't backed up. Ideas please?
