I have a MacBook with no more guarantee and with  Mac OSX 10.5.8. There some sites which do not accept this version . I tried to update with no success. What do I have to do?

Hi, which sites Andrea?
You might update...
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
   * Mac computer with an Intel processor
    * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
It looks like they do still have it:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDAzOA
And it's been reported that if you have a MobileMe account Apple will send one free.

  • Problem with Signing in itunes with my id. After signing in it does Not Show the Apple id and they are asking 3 Times if i wanna download Songs I have already bought but which are not on this iphone

    Dear community, I'm experiencing a problem since 2 days, that if I sign in in my iTunes account with my Apple ID on my iPhone it doesn't show at the end if scrolling down the ID details and credit anymore. If I try to download songs I bought once but which are not on this device anymore, it asks me 3 times for the ID and password. I fill it in but at the end nothing happens. I see only in the middle a moving symbol.
    What can I do? Apple ID and password are correct . I canceled all settings but same as before.
    Many thanks in advance.

  • I have OS X Lion and the messages beta on my macbook pro. When in messages, if I initiate a video chat there is no audio. I know this must be something on my end because if I'm invited to a video chat it works fine. Please help

    I have OS X Lion and the messages beta on my macbook pro. When in messages, if I initiate a video chat there is no audio. I know this must be something on my end because if I'm invited to a video chat it works fine. Please help

    Hi,
    The Buddy's Audio can get dropped completely if the speed of your Internet connections are vastly different.
    For example the minimum speed for a 1-1 video chat is only 128kbps Upload (As Downloads tend to be faster).
    Where I live in the United Kingdom I can only get DLS.  This is further subject to the distance to the Exchange.
    DLS at less than 3.5 km can be done at 20Mb at most exchanges.
    At some exchanges there is roll out of some Fibre optic services.
    In most larger towns and cities there is normally the option of a Cable service that offers similar figures.
    In some parts of Sweden you can get 100Mbps services.
    When the speed from your ISP varies a large amount then iChat will drop Frames to smooth out the Video
    There comes a point when so many frames are dropped that the Audio will not make sense and will be dropped.
    At about 128kbps a 5% variance will take you below the 100kbps mark (after allowing for the actual connection overheads)
    At 10Mbps that 5% variance can be (in round terms) 500kbps
    (A 500kbps service is itself good enough for a 4 way Video chat)
    My experience is that PC users on AIM tend to only send the Pic at 10 frames a second (Fps). Any slower than this and the picture losses it's smoothness and flow.
    You may see different Speeds and Frame Rates when you Call Out  compared to when others Call In.
    Setting the Bandwidth Limit to a lower figure such as 500kbps (fast enough for 4 way chats) may get around any variances in the speeds you see in the Connection Doctor during a live chat.

    tworules,
    You haven't mentioned the exact version of Photoshop you are running.  As the always helpful and knowledgeable JJMack told you, new versions of Photoshop do have auto save and recovery when enabled in your Photoshop Preferences.
    However, no auto recovery and/or autosave is a match for a defective machine.  As suggested by Mr. Cox, you should do a thorough inspection of all your hardware ASAP.

    UseCase: I have installed Flash Builder 4.5 on computer 1. On this computer we configured our licence. This was 4 years ago. Now we set up a computer 2 with Flash Buidler 4.7. We were trying to put in our license to this computer. It did not accept this serial. Is it possible to initialize several computers with the same serial number or is this issue related to the version 4.5 or/and 4.7.

    Moving this discussion to the Installing and activating Flash Builder forum.

    "iPod software update server could not be contacted. The Server does not support this version of iTunes." iPod will not turn on or charge or reset settings. I tried plugging it in my laptop, house computer and docking station to charge and nothing. Also, I have all the latest software updates to my knowledge. This is a classic 8GB iPod, running of Windows 7. Any thoughts/suggestions?

    only thing that seems to work so far is syncing without photos and also check here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3206849?start=30&tstart=0

    The messages on my Iphone and Mac don't match, My Mac is lacking messages. Do they only show if the sender has an iPhone, trying to figure out if thats what the missing names have in common, or if it a different problem?

    Messages on the mac will only show iMessages sent from an iPhone, another mac, iPad etc etc...
    It won't show SMS / Text messages.
    If the messages are green on your iphone then they are text messages... Blue are iMessages

  • My password keeps coming back incorrect, I have reset it 3 times now and it will not accept it on my iTunes to update on my phone or pad

    my password keeps coming back incorrect, I have reset it 3 times now and it will not accept it on my iTunes to update on my phone or pad. It obviously is the right password since I was able to log in here...

    Firstly  like King Penguin says log out ,i would clear cookies and history in the safari settings, then I would restart the unit and then open up ITunes and try using the last PW you entered when you changed it.Cookies can be a bugger.

  • HT1338 hi what antivirus is best in macbook pro???and may mac pro is go slow?

    hi what antivirus is best in macbook pro???and may mac pro is go slow?

    Forget about viruses, and don't install Sophos, which is worthless.
    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    One possible cause of a slow user interface is a large number of image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons. If you have more than a dozen or so such files, move them to another folder.
    Otherwise, take these steps when you notice the problem.
    Step 1
    Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
    Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
    Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
    Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
    Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
    Step 2
    You must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way as above. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
    Post the 50 or so most recent messages in the log — the text, please, not a screenshot.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into a message.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out before posting.

  • MacBook pro late 2011 i7 8GB 750GB MAC OSX Lion freezes on wake up

    Hi,
    My MacBook pro late 2011 i7 8GB 750GB MAC OSX Lion (up to date) 1 week old freezes on wake up.
    Plugged on power or not, same issues.
    No apps running.
    When it goes to sleep itself i wake it up it freezes for few seconds
    When i put it to sleep mode same issue.
    With the lid same issue...
    I already try setting up the sleep mode from 3 to 0 with terminal command it didn't work.
    Can it be an hardware issue ?
    Any ideas ?

    Dear TheSmokeMonster, Dear all MacBook pro 13'' late 2011 users,
    Here is the update.
    As TheSmokeMonster mentionned (above) they asked me to reinstall MAC OSX Lion by shutting down the computer and holding cmd + R while switching it off. Then you choose the language and you are good to go for a looooonngg 4GB download (it took me 8hours yeah chinese ADSL :-/ )
    Lion reinstalled itself automatically and restarted. - it did not solve the issue.
    I called Apple Care again and we try to run the hardware diagnostic by restarting the computer and holding D. FYI do not try it as this command does not work on the new version of macbook pro.
    Here is the intersting part! As the Apple Care already did everything they could to help me. We booked an appointment the my local Apple Store in Shanghai (a real one )
    The Genius remake again the SMC and PRAM reset - same issues and he also tried to boot Lion from his own external hard drive - Same issues. So we started to think that it was a Hardware problem.
    We tried another MBP 13'' late 2011 (last hardware update) in the shop to see if it works properly and it DOESN'T!
    Yeah you heard me. I have been trying more than 10 MBP 13'' (2.4Ghz 4GB and 2.8Ghz 4GB) put them asleep and they all freeze on wake up!! it also does it on Mac book air 13'' it seems to be a global issue on all the new 13'' machines. A compatibility problem between Lion and the new hardware architecture of the 13'' ? just my guess.
    Anyway FYI this issue doesn't occur on MBP 15 and 17"
    I was just amazed by this global problem so was the genuis. We could not find any solutions cause even a replacement one will have the same problem. They told me i could change for a 15" but i had to go back to the Apple shop where i bought it which is 2000Kms away not really convenient So i file the cas and i took my MBP 13'' back with me.
    They will contact me later for further explanation.
    To be continued.

  • SCCM issue - "LANG_LIST has some locales which does not match with the locale of serial number"

    I have a problem with the error "LANG_LIST has some locales which does not match with the locale of serial number" recurring.
    I am trying to install Acrobat XI Std silently by SCCM.
    I've used the Adobe Customisation Wizard to create a mst which include the volume serial number we have with our licence purchases. Note that I am in Australia. I use the command line in SCCM for the install as "msiexec /i "AcroStan.msi" TRANSFORMS="D&B_AcroStd.mst" /qn" which fails silently. If I install on a local machine using an admin command prompt and changing to /qb at the end, I get the aforementioned error.
    I have a few things to try and resolve, having searched the adobe forums and other forums for the solution. The mst is only trying to install US English & I have even gone so far as to use the direct editor in the customisation wizard and change some values in the property table to resolve this. In the property table I can confirm that LANG_SEL_DEFAULT = ENU, REGIONAL_LIST = ENU, LANG_LIST = en_US, ProductLanguage = 1033
    Is there a way to check the language specified for ym serial number?
    Bryndon

    Update on a couple of details:
    @Sabian,
    Thanks for the location, I've downloaded and then when I tried an install of the newly extracted msi (admittedly on the same computer) I got exactly the same issue. Of note though is that running /qf automatically brought up the same serial number and the same incorrectly spelled company name. Installing on another computer (freshly imaged) doesn't have those inputs already present under /qf. Next when I try using the transfrom (a new one) with /qr it gives an error of the serial number, displaying the entire serial.
    @Sebastian
    I've had a look through yours and it seems our issues could have the same origin. Looks like I may have to call customer support regarding the serial number as Sabian suggested in your thread.
    The bit that gets me is when the same serial number is used in a manual install (or /qf) then it installs ok without any errors.
