I have a Mac osx 10.8.3 and the magnetic cable no longer attaches to my computer. Is it possible it can just lose that magnetic attraction?
I have a mac osx 10.8.3 and the magnetic cable no longer attaches to the computer. Is it possible for the computer or cable to just lose its magnetic attraction and any suggestions on what to do(or do I need to buy a new cable).
Thanks
Buy a new AC adaptor after you verify that the problem isn't the mag-safe connector on your computer. Take it in for service.

I have a MAC OSX 10.4.11 and need to upgrade
I have a MAC OSX 10.4.11 and need to upgrade. I'm not too computer savvy but can handle basic things. How should I proceed?
Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
If it's a G3, no further upgrades are available.
If it's a G4 or G5, buy a retail Mac OS X 10.5 DVD from a source such as Amazon or eBay.
If it's an Intel Mac, buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store.

I have a Mac OSX 10.6.8 and I can no longer "save to iphoto" when photos come by email.
I have a Mac OSX 10.6.8 and I can no longer "save to iPhoto " when I get photos on email.
What changed, before you could no longer save image attachments to iPhoto?
Did you install new software or upgrade to newer versions? Which version of iPhoto are you using?
The "Save to iPhoto" feature has been missing for some iPhoto versions. I do not remember exactly when it vanished, but it is back with iPhoto 9,6 and MacOS X 10.10.2.
As a work-around - you can drag photo attacuments from your mail to the iPhoto icon in the Dock to save them to iPhoto. -
I have a Mac OSx 10.6.8 and iPhoto 7.1.5 and can no longer order printed photo albums unless I update to new version of iPhoto. But reviews of new iPhoto are so negative that I am uncomfortable about buying it. Will it be fine or should I steer clear of trouble and accept that i can no longer publish my photos?
iPhoto '11 is working well.
The reviews usually only show the comments of people who do not like the changed features.
To get an idea what to expect, when you upgrade, look at the iPhoto '11 support sites.

Books are no longer supported with iPhoto '08 (a roughly six yeal old product) - you can purchase an iLife '09 DVD from someplace like Amazon or eBay and install it - iPhoto '09 is still supported this year

I have a desktop mac operating on Mac OSx 10.4.11 and the system does not recognize my iphone and I am unable to upgrade to the newest itunes version. What do I need to do?
Backup first
It is always best to have a full bootable backup before you upgrade. If you fail to do this you will be unable to return to this OS if you decide you don't like the new OS. Also there is a slight chance that an install could lose everything on the Mac. The backup must be to an external hard disk. Preferably use Carbon Copy Cloner to make a bootable backup of the whole disk.
Erase before the install
Once you have a bootable backup on an external disk it is best to erase the internal disk with the new installer DVD before you install.
During the install
Preferably do not import any data or preferences from earlier OSs during the install process as this can reintroduce bugs.
OS numbers and names
OS X 10.4.x - Tiger
OS X 10.5.x - Leopard
OS X 10.6.x - Snow Leopard
OS X 10.7.x - Lion
OS X 10.8.x - Mountain Lion

Upgrade to Leopard
Those wishing to upgrade to Leopard should be aware that install disks can be expensive unless you contact Apple. Details: http://lowendmac.com/deals/best-os-x-leopard-prices.html Standard Leopard installers impose several hardware limitations including speed and RAM size but all these restrictions can be overcome. Google for details. Leopard works well at 500 MHz with 1 GB of RAM and many happy users have less than this.
Upgrade beyond Leopard
OSs beyond OS X 10.5.8 require an Intel processor. If in doubt check this: Click the apple at the top left of your screen and select 'About this Mac'. This will give you your OS number. Then click 'More Info' to see which processor you have. If it says PowerPC you cannot upgrade to Snow Leopard and above. If you have an Intel Mac it is well worth upgrading to Snow Leopard now and then considering other options after that. You can buy Snow Leopard here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A

Important
Check that your Mac complies with any requirements. If you are not in the US you should use the Change Country link at the bottom of Apple pages. -
I have a Mac OSX 10.4.11 and want to purhase software (Quickbooks). Is there any place that I can buy software for this computer?
http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_mac/software/finance
However, the system requiments are pretty steep:
Mac OS X v10.6 or v10.7
2GB of RAM
Intel Core 2 Duo or later
so you at minimum need to upgrade the OS to at least OS 10.6. That is this package:

I would like to know what recommendations people have for poster software? I have a mac osx 10.6.8 and would like to know if there are any versions of photoshop that would be suitable.
Any help appreciated. Thanks.I wouldn't use Photoshop to make posters, though of course I'd use it with the photos that are part of the poster. For text work I'd use Illustrator or InDesign as appropriate.

Hi I have a mac osx lion10.7.3 and i can't get my mail set up with a blueyonder.co.uk address inbox works fine but i can't get outbox to work will not send mail any idea's thank's
And, you are sure you have provided the correct username and password for you email account? I'm not familiar with Virgin media, so you might contact their tech support to find out why you are having a problem sending mail but none receiving mail. I assume your mail account has always been POP3 and not IMAP. Typically, the outgoing mail servers are not the same for the different types of account service.

I have an MAC OSX 10.6.7 and when I turn it on the fan keeps running. I shut down/turn on and it's the same. Any suggestions? Thanks.
jean156,
I am a little confused, you are posting in an iMac forum however your profile only indicates you have a MacPro. While I agree a SMC reset may help please carefully read the link The hatter provided because different Mac's have a different processes for resetting the SMC.
In the mean time you may want to update your profile (Your Stuff in upper right and click Profile) and also please post in the correct forum to avoid confusion. -

I have a Mac OSX version 10.4.11 and iphoto 6. I can no longer order cards, prints etc. and cannot upgrade to a newer version of iphoto because I don't meet the system requirements of 10.5.6 or later. What can I do?
Unless you upgrade the OS and then iPhoto, not a lot, I'm afraid.

I have a mac osx 10.3.9 and need to download firefox version that will run on it.
I mistakenly downloaded firefox 3.6 before I realized my system wouldn't support it. Now firefox won't launch, and replaced my older firefox version in applications. Now what do I do?
Firefox 2.0.0.20 is the last ever release for Mac OSX 10.3.9 and earlier versions. Get it here: <br />
