I have a Mac OSX Server - can this be upgraded to Mavericks?

Am confused about whether I can update my OSX Server to Mavericks?( I have 4GB of memory.) And if so, which application do I choose to do so - Safari?

So the first question is, what version of OS X Server are you running now and what model machine is it running on? The second question is what services is your current server running? The third question is what client devices are you supporting? These will help answer if you can or should.
If you decide you want to the general process is:
1: MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BACKUP. This is not just that you have some files in two places. Make sure you have a regression plan in the event the upgrade fails. I can not stress this enough.
2: Upgrade the device to Mavericks 10.9.2. This is "purchasable" through the Apple App Store. Please note, Mavericks 10.9.x is free. However, you need to associate it with an Apple ID.
3: Purchase Server.app from the App Store. This is $20 USD.
4: Run Server.app to upgrade your services. Test. Cross fingers.

I have Minimac with OSX Server - can I reload it with Mountain Lion?

I have a minmac and runs OSX Server. I do need the server control so can I go ahead and restore with Mountain Lion?

Actually, when you install Mountain Lion client, the Lion version
of Server and its components will be quarantined as an incompatible
app and could then be disposed of.
So either delete before or delete after willl work.

Mac OSX Server VPN Not Working

Heres how my setup is: I have an ATT DHCP Server/Router That assigns my public ip.
I have an Apple AirPort Extreme in Bridge Mode Which hosts the main wifi connection.
I have my Mac OSX Server connected to the AirPort Extreme
On my ATT Router DHCP Server's Firewall I have my computer set to DMZ Plus mode which forwards all ports on the network to my mac.
I am trying to connect to the vpn network via my MacBook Pro and iPhone5 and I cannot. However I can connect to the online wiki page on my server by going to server.djswirkmke.com if you would like to see it. My host name is server.local on the network but on the internet it is server.djswirkmke.com I also have a mail domain setup as mail.djswirkmke.com. My problem is I am not able to connect to the vpn on the client computers can you please help?

In a moment of random frustration, I tried listing the DNS server in VPN settings three times, and it somehow fixed the problem. Even though it is the same IP all three times, it works when it is listed three times but not when it is listed just once.
In other words, in VPN > Settings > Client Information > DNS Servers, I have:
192.168.100.64
192.168.100.64
192.168.100.64
Hope this helps someone having the same problem.

You run Windows in Parallels or Fusion. Then in Windows you install the program.

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:

Can a NAS-raid5 be directly attched to a Macmini using Mac OSX server?

Please excuse this post if any of you feel this is the wrong area (it seems to be kind of foggy to where it does belong)....Just looking for a Solution....
I recently setup an Mac OSX server on my old Mac mini (for my home use) I was wondering if I could somehow setup my Buffalo Terastaion NAS to be controlled by (with perhaps the raid admin software). I don't mind id I have to re-format it. I notice in the raid controller software you can add a system....
Anyone done this before?
Thanks in advance,
RET

I was wondering if I could somehow setup my Buffalo Terastaion NAS to be
controlled by
That should be possible via the NAS's Web Frontend (which I think it has) like one does it under Windows.
The RAID Admin software is only meant for the Apple XServe RAID to administer.

I want to Connect my Mac Mini as a Slave to a Mac pro Server while at the same time using the Mac mini's thunderbolt ports peripherals ( ie monitor, Sound Card, Hard drives) Creating a poor man's new mac Pro. Can this be Done?

I want to Connect my Mac Mini as a Slave to a Mac pro Server while at the same time using the Mac mini's thunderbolt ports peripherals ( ie monitor, Sound Card, Hard drives) Creating a poor man's new mac Pro. Can this be Done?

Well, I really would love the new unreleased mac pro however , I'm not sure of the expected cost , Everyone speculates from $3,000 to $8,000, in which I may have to wait a while to purchase.
To the point .... I want fully functional thunderbolt ports to be on the current mac pro's .... wonder if anyone had workarounds yet?... or could I chain the the current mac pro to a mac mini to make that happen?

If i have a mac osx 10.6 can i use the lion software?

Well I REALLY DONT KNOW MUCH ABOUT COMPUTERS BUT WHEN LION COMES OUT CAN I UPGRADE IF I HAVE A MAC OSX 10.6 ?????

I Think it is a good thing to wait for Apple informations (this summer). In the meanwhile you can read an Apple webpage about Lion at Apple.com. I think, however, that Lion will run on recent Apple computers, not on the old ones. Lion is not a Mac OS X upgrade, but a new edition of the Apple Mac OS X, and it will be not free, we will pay it if we will choose to change. Note that the info at your profile is generic about your iMac. Please, be more accurate. I agree with Michael Wasley.

I re installed my original software and now I don't know how or if I can retrieve all my old pics and files!! please help i have a mac osx 10.5.4

Not sure I understand how Migration Assistant is doing anything. I thought MA was for connecting your computer to another computer or volume and transferring files. I'm just not sure how you're using it. Like I said earlier, everything you do on your Mac overwrites more of what data may have been recoverable if there even was any. Not to kick you when you're down but this is exactly he kind of a situation where a time machine or other back up would have saved you a lot of heartache. I'm sorry but I don't think I can be of any help :-(

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 install new version of iPhoto. But reviews of new iPhoto so negative. Should I install it or steer clear of it??

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.

Hi Mary,
I don't remember those arrows in 10.6, only 10.7 & up!?
I have 10.6.8, as you do. To make your Safari full screen, make sure you have the left hand side of your safari page moved all the way to the left. Then move your cursor to the BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER of the safari page, and simply drag your page towards the lower right hand corner of the screen. NOTE: you will see a series of lines on the bottom right corner of the page, indicating where to place you cursor arrow.
