I have Mac 0S 10.5.8 and it won't let me download Mac OS 10.6.8, What do I do to be able to get this new update?

I downloaded the new update on my Iphone. When I plugged it into my computer it wouldn't let me sync because my computer didn't have an updated i-tunes version. When I tried to update Itunes, it said I needed Mac OS 10.6.6 or higher. Then when I tried to download that it said I needed 10.6 or higher to download that...so...what do I do...Is my computer too outdated?

10.6. is available for sale on DVD, ONLY through the online store and leftovers from other sellers (not local Apple stores).
But since the launch of 10.8 Mountain Lion, it has been "put away" and you must CALL the Apple Online Store support line and they can arrange to sell it to you.
When you get it updated to at least 10.6.6, the MacApp Store will appear. But 10.7 is also "put away" and you will need to call again to buy that, if you want it, probably by download using a special code they will sell you.

I have forgetten my security q answers and itunes won't let me download anything! HELP!

Hi, this is the first time I've tried to download something off iTunes, my account defiantly has money on it and all is okay. Then, I go to type my password and the security questions pop up, I've forgotten both my answers and am now stuck! Does anyone know what I should do? I've tried the link but it won't let me change the questions as I need to know the answers.

When you log into your account via
www.appleid.apple.com
and click on Password & Security there should be a link in blue saying
"Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to...."
Have you tried this?

I have the adobe cloud 9.99/ month photography package i downloaded lightroom 5.4, it told me it was a trial version, and i'm now at the end of the trial and it won't let me download the full version and i don't have a serial number

i have the adobe cloud 9.99/ month photography package i downloaded lightroom 5.4, it told me it was a trial version, and i'm now at the end of the trial and it won't let me download the full version and i don't have a serial number. also, when i click buy, i get an error message saying, "application not found."

There are two different LR’s, one with a serial-number licensing and one with a CC-signin license.
You should uninstall the serial-number LR you have installed, then
Quit the CC Desktop application,
Restart the CC Desktop application—this will rescan what you have installed and not see LR,
LR will now be on the CC Desktiop apps list, so install that.

I currently have my credit card on my iTunes account and when I have no money in my bank account it won't let me download the free apps even though they don't cost anything. How do I stop this so I can download or remove my credit card?

All downloads from iTunes are tied to the account that downloaded it, you can't re-download content via a different account. You checked the spam folder on yourr old account as well as the Inbox, and depending upon how long ago you did it, have you retried getting it reset : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password' ?

I have an older ipod, and it won't let me download apps. It says my iPod isn't compatible? Then when i plug my iPod onto iTunes it says it's fully updated.

You don't say which version of iPod you have but apparently it's fully updated to it's capability yet not to the level that newer iPods can go. Some apps do require the latest IOS level.

I'm trying to get itunes up and running on new computer. I have lots of music I've purchased from Itunes...and they show in my account. But only some of them have the cloud next to them. The rest say "downloaded" and it won't let me download them again.

I believe that all audiobooks are supplied to Apple by audible.com, so I assume that it's them requiring the one-time only download. This is the link for contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

Yes. You can set the payment method to "None" once you log into iTunes on your PC/Mac. I have it set up this way.

if you cant download them > email the iTunes Store emaill support adn explian the situation adn they will give you a regrant of all your purchases.
expresslane.apple.com > click on iTunes > then iTunes Store > and choose the right prompts
but you should try the pas purchase thing in iTunes first because the regrant is a one time thing. > IE iTunes Store > purchases > click what you want > redownload
> but you do need iTunes 10.5 or later for it to work correctly .
i woudl ask for the regrant it you dont have the options for movies yet

You have to delete them same you put them there, which is to connect your phone to your Mac and uncheck them via iTunes.

I've had to owe Apple money when I had no money on my card and now that I have money on my Visa Debit then it still won't go through and it won't let me download anything from my iTunes. Can I assist some help please?

hi,
So, basically... I had to owe Apple money when I had no money on my card but now I've got money on my card and it won't allow me to pay off what I need to and I'm still unable to even download apps, songs or anything and it's worrying me.
Can someone help please?

If you can't get the password correct, you CANNOT restore from that backup.
However, if you've been using your phone as recommended by Apple, there should be minimal data loss.
Your iTunes library is on your computer, so you can synch all your apps, music, movies, ringtones, etc, on to your new phone.
Similarly, contacts should be synched to Address Book, Outlook, or a cloud service for you to easily synch back to your new phone.
Pictures taken from your old phone and not synched to your computer are lost, but you would have been synching those photos to your computer frequently as recommended. Other photos that you synch TO your iPhone are still on your computer.
You won't be able to get text messages back.
