I can't download Mavericks on my home iMac because of the 10 GB limit, where can I get the free copy?

My problem is that I want to get the free copy of 10.9, Mavericks, but my mid-2007 iMac uses the Verizon Internet Wireless service and there is a 10 GB limit. If I tried doing it (has 4G and it is very fast) I'd have $40-60 in overage charges. I could use the Public Library computer but it is PC and won't let me download. I was told by an Authorized Apple dealer that I would have to have to bring my computer in and install it there which isn't practical. I was told by the owner to ask this question, he would like to know too. If it's a DMG file I could put the upgrade file on my solid state memory device and install it on my harddrive (I have four).

It has a 10 GB monthly limit, 5.2 would take 52% leaving little for the rest of the month. Typically this is a non-issue for most cable internet providers which have a 100+ GB upper limit. The Library is a cable internet Lenova PC. Next year I will be at a different location and will have Mediacom's internet and this problem will go away. Overage charges for Verizon are $20/1 GB over the limit (better than ATT was which would simply cut you off at the limit.)

    I have tried to download Mavericks on my 2010 iMac(10.6.8), but nothing happens, not even the install app downloads, also I tried to download chrome, I moved it to the applications folder and when I opened the folder it wasn't there. I have a 1tb hard drive that is mostly empty. By the way I just got this imac used from a reseller.

    Mavericks downloads into the Applications folder, where you can install it.   Some Mac App Store Troubleshooting information and how to resume a download that was interrupted; some of the information here might get you an answer.   Failing that, try contacting Apple Support.

  • I downloaded and paid for an app on my ipad, how can I get it free on my iphone without using itunes as my laytop is broken. I cannot seem to find the purchase tab in app store? I am logged in using the same ID

    I downloaded and paid for an app on my ipad, how can I get it free on my iphone without using itunes as my laytop is broken. I cannot seem to find the purchase tab in app store? I am logged in using the same ID

    First, the app must be universal...designed for both iPhone/iPad:
    Tap App Store.
    Make sure you're signed in with the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.
    Tap Updates.
    Tap Purchased on the resulting screen.
    Locate the app in your Purchased tab.
    Tap the download icon.
    The app will begin downloading and you'll be taken back to your home screen.

  • I bought my first mac in May. Can i get iWork free now that i have Mavericks?

    I bought my first mac in May. Can i get iWork free now that i have Mavericks?

    Hey ItsaJimThing,
    Great question. Apple announced that qualifying Mac purchases after October 1st, 2013 would be eligible for the Up-To-Date program. Unfortunately, from the information you provided, it does not sound like your Mac qualifies for this program.
    Apple - Up-to-Date Program for Pages, Numbers, and Keynote
    http://www.apple.com/creativity-apps/mac/up-to-date/
    On October 22, 2013, Apple announced that its Pages, Numbers, and Keynote apps are available free with every qualifying new Mac. If you purchased a qualifying Mac on or after October 1, 2013, that did not include Pages, Numbers, and Keynote, you can download them free by following the steps below.
    You can still enjoy all of the great benefits of the new iWork suite by purchasing it from the Mac App Store. Or, if you had previously purchased iWork ’09, feel free to update to the new versions by visiting the updates section:

  • Where can I get a free download of saplicense.exe?

    Where can I get a free download of saplicense.exe?
    saplicense is the SAP tool, that is mostly used for installing a new SAP license. This tool is command line based. In the easiest way, you just issue the following command:
    saplicense -install
    Then you are asked for the SID, the installation number, the license key etc.
    The SAP License can be ordered online in the SAP Service Marketplace at:
    http://service.sap.com/licensekey

    Thanks Mark, for the hint!
    I too was missing saplicense.exe from my ABAP trial install.
    Eventually, I found it in the zip file "51032266_3",
    "NW 2004s SR2 Kernel 7.00 Windows Server on IA32 32bit".
    (SAP Support Portal download)
    unzip 51032266_3.zip
    cd NW_2004s_SR2_Kernel_WINDOWS__LNX_X86
    cd KN_WINDOWS_I386
    cd DBINDEP
    d:\sap\NSP\sys\exe\run\sapcar.exe -xf SAPEXE.SAR saplicense.exe

    If you have exhausted your free trial period on your computer, even if you didn't actually get to try it, short of wiping and reinstalling your entire system from scratch you're not going to be able to extend the trial period.  If there was a way, there would be people who would take advantage and just never subscribe.

  • HOW can I get a GOOD copy of the iTunes software for my desktop?

    I solved MY corrupt firmware file problem!
    A little background- I deleted all Apple, iPod, and QuickTime software from my desktop PC and reloaded iTunes for the (I don't know how many) time. Same thing! Downloaded it again and used the "erase iTunes" option then reloaded again and had the same result. I then cranked up my old laptop and when I got to the Apple website, I was offered an opportunity to download QuickTime and took it. It came with iTunes if I wanted, so I took that too. After the download, I plugged in the Nano and it restored to Windows format. I did not want it to sync to the laptop, so I took it to the desktop and was able to sync with Nano and downloaded my tunes. TALK ABOUT HOKEY!
    WHY does the restore program have to be resident on MY PC or MAC anyway? Seems like I could just as simply download a current copy from Apple every time I want to restore.
    WHY doesn't Apple do something about this problem and let users know about the solution? Do they not want to grab a share of the Windows business? Here is an excellent opportunity!
    Now for my question.
    HOW can I get a GOOD copy of the iTunes software for my desktop? I now know it works! Is there a hidden file or folder I should delete before I make my next attempt to cleanup and download? Why isn't this information public?
    I spent over 30 years in the DP industry. PC is not my area of expertise, but this must be the most frustrating experience of my years.
    desktop   Windows XP  

    I THINK I have solved the problem. Can't be 100% because I don't want to try a restore. At least the Apple home page lites up correctly with quicktime now. It hadn't in the past.
    Thank you for your assistance. - LRB

  • How can I get a new copy of the Voicemail app for my LG Spectrum?

    How can I get a new copy of the Voicemail app for my LG Spectrum?  It no longer works....the screen say Loading please wait....the

    Thank you,

    OK, at least 3 is working.
    I don't know how you have a Tape Recorder icon on your Home Screen. I cannot add one myself. But, I am running Holo Launcher in replacement of the default LG "Optimus" User Interface. It's much better in my opinion.
    Try long pressing the icon and select Edit and maybe you can change some attribute of the icon.
    Another thing you could do, is long-press an empty area of your desktop, to add an icon. Select Shortcut, then Select Contact, and scroll through your contact list and choose the contact that you added for *86.
    You realize if you have voice mail you haven't heard, there is a tape recorder icon in the notification bar, which you touch and pull down, then press it to dial voicemail.
    If that functionality doesn't work, you MIGHT want to consider doing a factory data reset on your device, but that is going to nuke all your personalizations and cause you work to set up again.

    can i get an older copy of itunes cause i cant stand the new version

    Before you go to the effort to downgrade, go to the small icon with the arrow at the extreme upper left and select "Show Menu Bar":
    Then from the View menu select "Show Sidebar" and "Show Status Bar". That may alleviate some if not all your complaints. If not, you can download iTunes 10.7 here:

    There are many threads in this forum with downgrade instructions.

  • Where can i get a free idvd dowload for mac os x leopard 10.5.8

    My mac came without idvd loaded. Where can i get a free download for it?

    There are none. You need to install it from the computer's original disks(phone AppleCare if you don't have those), or a retail iLife 09 or earlier DVD(iLife 11 requires at least 10.6.3), which are available from sources such as Amazon or eBay.

  • If I purchase a boxed copy of Adobe LR 5, can I get a free upgrade to LR 5.6 through the Adobe website?

    If I purchase an authentic boxed copy of Adobe LR 5, can I get a free upgrade to LR 5.6 through the Adobe website?

    Yes. In fact all you need from that boxed copy is the serial number. You can download Lightroom 5.6 from the website and activate it with that serial number. If you install from the disk in the box you will only be prompted to update immediately anyway. And that will involve downloading and installing Lightroom 5.6, which will be a complete replacement of your original disc installation.

  • The hard drive on my laptop that contained Elements just died.  Can I get a second copy for installation on my new PC?

    The hard drive on my laptop that contained Elements just died.  Can I get a second copy for installation on my new PC?

    The iPhone is not a backup device.
    Restore the iTunes library from the backup that should be kept of your media and other important files.
    Syncing the iPhone to a new library (in this case, it will be a new library unless you have a complete backup of the iTunes folder pre-crash) will result in the media on the device being removed and replaced with content from the new library.
    As for iOS5, we really do not know until Apple officially releases it.
