I have a MacBook Pro 13 early 2011. I can't use Gmail because it says my version of Safari (5.1.7 (7534.57.7) is not compatible. What can I do?
Niel, I found a way to download Safari 6.1.6 but it failed because the installer couldn't create the folder '/var/folders/lg/pqypcsnn715btrs106b9crpr0000gn/T//Install.3334NgcMxu"

I have a macbook running 10.6.8 is there a way to transfer docs from that computer to iCloud
I have a macbook running 10.6.8 is there a way to transfer docs from that computer to iCloud with out using a third party app like dropbox?
Yes - if you have the iWorks apps or apps that support iCloud and if you have iCloud setup on the iPad correctly. You do by using Safari on the Mac.
If you have Pages on both devices - you can log into iCloud.com on the Mac. Sign in, and click on the iWorks icon in the browser window in Safari. Then click on Pages at the top in the next window. Then drag your Pages document from the Mac desktop onto the browser window and the document will be available in Pages on the iPad when you launch it. -
I have old MacBook running OS 10.6.8 I was told in Apple Genius Bar that I need a code from apple support to upgrade to 10.7. Apple support will not help because I am have their support plan. Can some one help?
hi Samberl
thanks a lot for the fast reply.
I was dragging folders from main folders on the laptop-desktop onto the external drive icon - to copy them across....
Your suggestion sounds very promising - I didn't know about 'cloning'.
Yes the idea is to backup the laptop - I thought I would just move it all now, new - and then keep saving/dragging physically across to the new drive myself each day or two...
Would this be the sizeof the internal hard drive = c.500 gb ? = under the HD icon on desktop is written :
" 499.76gb , 311.5 gb free "
I can erase and start agin on the new external drive - so this plan is to make two partititions, rather than the one at present, and make one of them 500 gb ?
I have found CCC [carbon copy cloner] googling - looks good.
When CCC site says it backs up the hard drive - would this mean all my files [over 100 gb] that are mostly in folders on the desktop, plus the others in itunes, iphotos etc found in the HD icon, would all copy across successfully [wherever they are in the computer ] ?
thanks again, hope you can clarify these things and then I will go for it.
It would be great and amazing if this 'lack of permission' message doesn't show up in the process of doing this ccc transfer - hopeful!

I have a macbook running on whatevers right before 10.6. To get it up to date is all i have to buy softwarewise 10.6 and 10.7?
Snow Leopard Purchase
Computer Compatibility - Lion Lion
Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks.
To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
Your Mac needs:
OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
8 GB or more of available space -

Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported.

I have a MacBook running Mac OS X Version 10.4.11 which I purchased in 2006/2007.
Should I purchase a new computer?
I'm planning on purchasing Adobe Creative Suite 4 or 5 and overall I want to make sure my computer (Internet, etc.) is up-to-date.Snow Leopard requires 1gb of RAM too. It sounds like you already have the minimum.
What model of Mac Book do you have? Go to the "Apple" in the upper left hand corner and select "About This Mac". Then click "More Info" and check "Model Identifier" in "System Profiler" is it a 1,1, or 2,1?
You can upgrade the RAM to 2gb in either one for about $40 http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/MacBook/DDR2/
If you like the MacBook I would stick with it. I'm running an older MacBook with CS3 on it and it runs fine for me.
The iMac is a desktop computer not a laptop. With it you get a bigger screen and the ability to hold more RAM and a bigger hard drive. It wouldn't be that much better for running software than a new MacBook or MacBook Pro would be. -
I have a MacBook running OS 10.9 with 4GB of memory free. Can I install Yosemite?
I have a MacBook running OS 10.9 with 4GB of memory free. Can I install Yosemite?
Other things being equal, 4GB is enough to check your email and run Yosemite. If your Mac runs well with Mavericks it should run well with Yosemite.
You probably won't be happy with the performance of your Mac with Yosemite if you are planning on doing other things that are more demanding on your hardware, like Photoshop or editing video, or using virtualization software. Unless you like seeing the spinning beachball.
Other factors are important too, like your HD (SSD vs. conventional drive), how full your HD is, how fast your processor is, and if you have some types of "crapware" on your Mac, for example, CleanMyMac or MacKeeper, or other similar dubious "utilities". Or antivirus software. But that is a whole discussion in itself.
You can easily test drive Yosemite in one of two ways:
1. Make a backup of your current installation, like with Time Machine. Then if you don't like Yosemite you can restore from your backup.
2. Make a test partition on your hard drive and install Yosemite there. -

Hi there, I have installed iTune on my new Toshiba laptop which runs on Win 8. I can update itune on Toshiba laptop, sync but the iphone Apps still showing app to be updated. Restarted both Itune and iphone....reset phone backup....to no avail.....HELP!
I have removed now all bloatware from laptop, CCleaner run and some more stuff: installed Libre Office, Free Avast, Mozilla Firefox - Spotify was preinstalled. And now this is even better - really simple and fast.
I also removed Ethernet completely, as I don't want to be locked at one place. It's not cool to use laptop on divan sofa. So tired after hour of sitting in uncool position. Wifi speed loss is almost 50%. 95 Mbps I get from 100 Mbps at Ethernet and on Wifi in laptop I get at max 50 Mbps. It's only for end this year this way, then I will slow down my connection anyway as for one person and laptop/smartphone it's way too much of speed for 40 €. With 27€ I can get the same 10M/10M and it will be more than enough. Now I have 100M/10M.
I'm also considering about 50M/10M option for 32.90 €, but I will see what I do. I download now test file 10GB and it loads 30-40 Mbps and sometimes even as fast as 50 Mbps. It depends on server also, but ebven on Google, which works on Ethernet at 95 Mbps, it is on Wifi nothing more than 51 Mbps.
It's also 10GB of 1,100 Offlined tracks, I tested it now. So on trips 32GB card should be enough for my phone. I'm going to one soon :) -
