Software Update will recognize that you need more than a one-step upgrade and should supply the equivalent of the combo updater automatically. Of course, you can also go here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1582 and download the combo updater yourself and then run it.
There was a Supplemental update released recently which fixes a problem in the original 10.7.5 update so just to be safe, after running the update, go to "About this Mac" under the Apple Menu, then click "More Info..." You should see (11G63) after the new OS version. If it's earlier than 63, Software Update can deliver the Supplemental update. However, when I've tried the support.apple.com links, even though the date shown is 9/19, updaters containing that fix are delivered so you should be OK. That's also true if you use Software Update.

I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?
Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes? If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created. -
I have a macbook pro with 10.6.8 on it but I need to do a clean re install and my CD is 10.4.6. Can I use the CD and then are my OS updates to 10.6.8 free?
Also can I use iMac OS install disks on a MacBookPro?You will have to buy Snow Leopard:
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order. You also should find it at your local Apple retailers.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements. -
If I buy a ipad mini with cellular, and not sign up for cellular service, can I use the onboard GPS, or does it depend on the cell signal since it is aGPS?
Right. But as I understand it, the aGPS is a function that speeds location using cell signals, but isn't necessary for the GPS signal. I can buy a plugin device that is a real GPS that I can use with my iPad mini. However, I would need an app for maps. I was wondering if anyone had used one of these.

Can't use the keyboard shortcuts in Photoshop CS6 when updating Mavericks
Can't use the keyboard shortcuts in Photoshop CS6 when updating Mavericks
Thanks everyone. What worked for me was a version of the suggestions above. I had the problem with the ≠ character appearing in all my Photoshop CS6 keyboard shortcuts and rendering them largely unusable. However, I don't have any other keyboards besides US English enabled on my Mac. I do have Spell Catcher installed, which works through the keyboard input method. So, I switched from Spell Catcher back to English (with the US flag), launched Photoshop and presto, my keyboard shortcuts were restored, absent that obnoxious ≠ symbol. Once in Photoshop, if I reselect Spell Catcher, the ≠ symbol returns so I have to run Photoshop without the help of Spell Catcher - or forego the use of keyboard shortcuts while it's on. Since the developer of Spell Catcher passed away last year there will be no more updates to the otherwise very useful utility. Apparently this keyboard shortcut problem in the various guises reported here is linked to some element of the OS X input method in Mavericks, as Photoshop seems to manifest the issue in relation to one specific input source or another. This is the first application in my experience to have a problem with Spell Catcher in OS X 10.9. So I will continue to use it, except in Photoshop. Spell Catcher was never updated for Mountain Lion or Mavericks so people like me will have to use it "at our own risk" as the saying goes. Be that as it may, it does appear to be a bug in Photoshop that's at the root of this matter as different people have somewhat different problems with the OS X input method - not that I expect either Adobe or Apple to do anything about it.

I purchased an album and didn't receive all of the songs. I have iTunes 9.2.1 so I can't use the new 'Downloading past purchases" feature. How do I get the other songs? Using an Iphone 3Gs
Look under the Store menu in iTunes on your computer for the "Check for available downloads" command and run that. You may find the tracks there to be downloaded.
If not, contact the iTunes Store Customer Service department from their Support page (select the category and subcategory closest to the issue you're reporting and you'll find either an "Express Lane" button - just follow the instructions to get to the contact form, or an "Email Us" button) and explain the problem to them.

Can I use the same computer as my daughter to update my iphone?

Prepaid devices generally cannot be moved over to other accounts nor can they migrate numbers to other devices.
Chances are you will have to purchase a new device on its own and register it to your shared plan. When you merge accounts or add new devices the previous arrangements are wiped away.
VZW has a separate prepaid department that can assist you. Give VZW a call and have them walk you through the process. -
Hi,
I have apple account/password on laptop but can't use the same ID etc on new Ipad. On my account it says ID is only for 1 system. I really want only one ID for both Ipad and laptop.
ThanksIt seems that you have used the AppleIDs to "Purchase" your devices, which marries the two for all time and eternity.
For info - Using your Apple ID for Apple services
For Account security issues - Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security

I have DocsToGo premium installed on my iPhone4s; can I use the same app on an iPad mini or do I have to purchase another one?
It shows up in the store as a universal app, so you should be ok to go.

A box saying iCloud Backup 'This iPad hasn't been backed up in 2 weeks.Backups happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked and connected to wi-fi' - this box will not go away and so I can't use the iPad at all?
press and hold top power button and home button in front for 6-8 seconds until you see an apple, for it to reset.
and make sure your initiating an icloud backup or it will come up again.
1. be connected to wi fi
2. be plugged in to power source
3. turn screen off
go to settings>icloud>storage and backup>backup now. -

Recently, I have not been able to attach files to emails using the MobileMe webmail system.
When trying to attach files to emails using the MobileMe webmail system, it lets me browse and click on a file but then does nothing and there is no actual attachment. It previously always worked. I checked with the MobileMe folks and they said it is a browser problem. (True, it works in Safari.) Any ideas on how to fix this? I prefer Firefox, of course.
Hi davebundy-
One suggestion I've heard is that ad block may be perceiving the mail client as an advertisement. The solution was to mark the webmail URL as safe with any ad block plugins or software you have. Hope that helps. -
Can't use the DPS Tools because I need to update but can't do that...
I want to use the Indesign dps tools but when I try to make a folio my Indesign Folio builer says that I need to update my InDesign in order to use it.
But when I look in the creative cloud app and under 'help' in Indesign it says that my progam seems to be up to date...
So it says that it needs an update of Indesign but I cannot execute an update.
Does anyone have the same problem or knows how to solve it?
Thanks in advance!
Nick MeeuwsI'm not sure what causes this problem. I haven't been able to reproduce it, but I've seen it before. You might want to try creating a new account with admin rights and installing InDesign and DPS using that account. I'll ask around to see if anyone has a better solution.

Can I reset the Machine to Factory, but keep software updates and installs?
I have a Loan Mac Mini for Tech Support and Macintosh Evangelism. I loan it out to customers when I'm fixing their Windows Boxes, so they have something to use in the Interim, and to encourage them to Get A Mac.
Is there a way of installing all relevant Software Updates and installing 3rd party Drivers and software, but still allowing my Customers to have the full 'Macintosh Experience' with the Welcome screen, migration tool, et al.
Two ways I can think of doing this is Restoring MacOSX on it, installing the Software Updates and 3rd Party software from a Different Machine, but not all packages allow installation to a Non-Boot Drive.
The other way is to Create an Admin Account, Install all the Software Updates and 3rd Party software, and then remove the Admin Account.
Anyone have any Ideas?Start with a search for AppleSetupDone. Among those threads, you should find how to do what you want.
