I can't download OS MountainLion MacBook Pro 10.6.8 (2010)

I managed to disable my security system but every option I've downloaded so far has been ' not supported' by my laptop. I'm attempting to run 'Skydrive' so I can host ' PowerPoint.' This is a nightmare!

Your info bar shows 10.8.2, is that what you have or 10.6.8 as you say in the subject line?  Just what MacBook Pro are you trying to download to?
If you cannot get the download for whatever reason on your home network, can you go to another network and try the download?  Or do you have some strong secutiy on the MBP, have you installed an anti-virus program?  That has been the problem of a couple other users this weekend...AV software that kept blocking the download no matter what was done.

    Can I download iPhotos for macbook pro 10.6.8 and re-install?

    If your computer shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, it'll have come with a DVD. If needed, phone Apple and order a replacement.
    Unless you got Mac OS X Server with it, which is highly unlikely for a portable computer, that DVD will contain iLife.

  • OS X Mavericks 10.9.1 can't be installed on MacBook Pro retina late 2013

    OS X Mavericks 10.9.1 can't be installed on MacBook Pro retina late 2013
    OS X Mavericks 10.9.1 installer is available in the App Store but it can't be downloaded because "OS X Mavericks can't be installed on this computer".
    If the installer of version 10.9 is already in the application folder it can't be updated for the same reason.
    I've seen that they are two versions of the updater that are downloadable from apple's website and one is specific for the MacBook Pro retina late 2013.
    I suspect that the installer in the App Store is not an universal installer. It is stupid because you can't reinstall that Mac is needed.
    I phoned to Apple (AppleCare) and they don't know why this happens.

    Hello,
    Try to boot the 15" MBPr as target when connected to your MBA (if you have the right cables and adapters).
    From the MBA, install on the 15" MBPr's disk, in that order :
    The 10.9.1 update for Mavericks except MBPr
    Download
    and then the 10.9.1 update for Mavericks specific for MBPr
    Download
    The MBPr should be bootable again. I did it for an external HD.
    Hope this helps.
    Best,
    ÉrIC Miclo

  • Can I download a program, nitro pro 7 onto mac pro when it says it's for windows?  If so do I choose the 32 or 64 bit version?

    Can I download a progran (Nitro pro 7) onto my mac pro notebook when it says it's for windows?  If so do I choose the 32 or 64 bit version?

    First, this forum is for the tower Mac Pro system. The MacBook Pro forum can be found here:
    MacBook Pro
    Anyway, Windows programs do not natively run on Macs. You may be able to get Nitro to run, though either via Boot Camp or one of the virtualization solutions, such as Parallels Desktop, VMWare Fusion, or VirtualBox, that allow you to run a "guest" OS under Mac OS X. You'll need to confirm whether Nitro will run in such circumstances, and if it will, you'll need a copy of Windows. Whether you choose the 32-bit or 64-bit version of Nitro will depend on what release of Windows you choose, or can, run. I'd suggest asking for advice in the Nitro forums, if the developer provides customer forums.
    Regards.

  • Can I take my new MacBook Pro retina to an apple store for them to transfer files

    Can I take my new MacBook Pro retina to an apple store for them to transfer files from my PC? I am migrating from window 7. I was planning on doing myself but it looks like you need two thunderbolt to Ethernet adapters and two Ethernet cables? What is the best way to transfer? I live in a rural area and think maybe wirelessly may not be the best way? Thanks for any assistance!

    Can I use my back up from my PC to transfer? I just backed up my PC to WD My Book. Will that work?
    Probably will work fine. It's worth a try and won't do any harm. 
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2518
    What you can transfer to your Mac depends on the files.
    Photo files (.jpg .tiff etc) fine
    Music files - some may need conversion software to be used in iTunes (unless you had iTunes on your PC) but free converters are there
    Video files - ditto, some will work in iMovie, others may need converting to work
    Text - Pages will read .doc and .docx files.  Most Word processing files/spreadsheet files/presentation files can be read in iWork but if not, can use Open Office or Libre Office (both free downloads)
    Windows programs (eg those with a .exe suffix) won't work on a Mac without installing Windows (e.g. via BootCamp).

  • How do I download dropbox on macbook pro?

    How do I download dropbox onto macbook pro?  When i run install it says that it cant be opened becasue it was not downloaded from the Mac App store, yet i can't find dropbox in App store.  Help please.

    Rosmariefromvic,
    have you tried holding down the Control key when you selected it for installation? (See here for an explanation of what Gatekeeper does, and why this action works around it.)
    If you look in the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, and select the General tab, you might have the “Allow apps downloaded from:” radio button set to either “Mac App Store” or “Mac App Store and identified developers”, which could explain why you’d received that message.

    Yes, all of those players and readers are available for free to download on the Mac. Go to the web sites for those applications and you will find the Mac versions to download. Or go to macupdate.com to find them.

  • I downloaded a web site isytd video downloader on my macbook pro, to download videos. but it didnt  work , so I removed the softwear from my mac, even I removed it the download sign appears on the left top of my video screen,  so I want to remove this

    I downloaded a web site isytd video downloader on my macbook pro, to download videos. but it didnt  work , so I removed the softwear from my mac, even I removed it the download sign appears on the left top of my video screen,  so I want to remove this download sign. How can I get this done? Please help me.

    Many apps are not completely removed if the .app file is trashed (which is what I believe you've done so far).
    If you don't want to dig through the system to manually remove library files, I recommend the use of AppCleaner, which does the job for you.
