Why do I have less updated software after a repair?
About a week ago, I spilled soup on my computer, so I took it to the Apple store and they repaired it, but they had to replace everything inside it so it's like I have a new computer now. Not only does my computer feel much heavier than it did before, I have less updated software. Before, I had Lion (10.7.3) and now with this new stuff they repaired it with, I have Snow Leopard (10.6.8). Why did they do this, and is there any way I can get Lion back without having to pay for it? I'm extremely angry and I don't have money to just throw around spending on Apple's mistakes!
Are you also extremely angry at yourself, for slopping soup into your computer? If not, why not? You must have thrown quite a lot of money at that problem, which was no one's fault but your own.
Mistakes happen. If you hadn't made one first, Apple wouldn't have had a chance to make one afterward. Go back to the store and keep your anger to yourself. Explain clamly and politely that you'd like them to reinstall Lion, which was on it when you took it in. If you conduct yourself reasonably, I expect they'll oblige you.
As for the machine being heavier, that simply isn't true. There's nothing Apple could have put in it that would be any heavier than what was taken out. You're imagining the difference. -
I'm trying to sync my ipad over wifi, with my MAC, I have the updated software on my MAC, the ipad is up to dat 6.1.2. I can follow all of the steps, but I can't find a SUMMARY button on the toolbar, nor do I receive the option to sync. What am I doing wrong or what should I look for? Thank You
To sync your iPad over Wifi:
First ensure you're running iTunes 11.0.2. And you already have your iPad up to date, good.
Plug your iPad into the Mac via USB. Click your iPad in the top toolbar (under the search bar). Click the Summary tab if it isn't already selected. Check the box to "Sync with this iPad over Wi-Fi" (you may have to scroll down to see it). And now click the Apply button at the bottom right.
You should be able to unplug your iPad from the Mac and it should still remain in iTunes. (If not, try Quitting and relaunching iTunes and waiting, restarting iPad, etc).
To initiate a sync over Wifi, click your iPad in the toolbar in iTunes then click Sync. Or on your iPad, go to Settings > General > iTunes Wifi Sync and tap "Sync Now."
If this didn't solve your problem, please let me know with a more detailed explanation of what you're experiencing so I can try to help you get up and syncing wirelessly! -
Anybody have problems updating from Leopard 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard 10.6.3, or can I expect an easy update?

You shouldn't have too much trouble provided you have a relatively clean system.
You should backup your personal users folders off the machine to a regular storage drive (not TimeMachine) and disconnect.
10.6 upgrade strips out the 10.5 PPC code your not using and offers faster video drivers and some neat features like Exposé and Spaces which is highly productive as you can have 4-16 desktops visible at once and move stuff around between them (10.7 ripped that out)
10.6 is the fastest OS X version Apple has made, 10.5 is universal (more code and older video drivers) and 10.7 is slower than 10.6 in tests on the same hardware.
Your 10.5 install disk should be working, (check it first) stick it in and reboot holding the c key down, you should be able to boot from the disk. Apple isn't offering replacement 10.5 disks anymore so it needs to work in case you want to downgrade from 10.6.
You can learn how to make copies of your 10.5 disk online. I would do so.
You might decide to Carbon Copy Cloner (free/donations) your present 10.5 system to a blank external powered drive, you then can hold the option key and boot from it, erase and reverse clone back to your internal drive if you wish.
10.6 will run all your 10.5 software (some may need a update) as it has Rosetta, a compatibility system for 10.5 code. 10.7 does not, it will not run your present Rosetta/10.5 software at all, you will have to buy all new versions. Also older hardware likely won't work neither, like printers, scanners and all-in-ones etc as their drivers either won't get a update or they won't make one to force a premature hardware turnover.
If your upgrading your older 10.5 machine to 10.7, I'd advise against it, there isn't as much software ready for 10.7 (like 10.6) because it's forcing developers to rewrite their PPC based code
10.7 is slower and more glitchs than 10.6, more depressing gray all over and strange UI changes.
Also 10.8 is due out this summer and may not run on older hardware, so it's looking like you will be best off with 10.6.8 and leaving it at that to get the most software choice/performance and leave 10.8 for a new hardware/software purchase.
If your going to 10.7 anyway, then check this database to make sure the software your going to have to buy is ready or not. IMO, Lion for you and your older machine is a wasted effort and better the new software on a new hardware purchase.

I must admit though I throughly hate OS X Lion, as do a lot of other people, it's only because it's quality is absolutely terrible and unbecoming of Apple, likely why Mountain Lion 10.8 is being released this summer a year in advance and only a year after Lion. However my opinion about Lion's poor quality isn't relfected in my advice to you. For you it's more of a older hardware/have to buy all new software type deal which a newer machine with 10.8 and promises to be better/more refined OS than 10.7.
So in other words, upgrade to 10.6.8 and stay there, save your pennies for a new machine Early 2013, by then 10.8 would have several months and a lot of software/bugs worked out for it. -

Hallo. If all of your apps purchases from the same Apple ID, you can try to update them on iTunes, ways as below:
iTunes 12 for Windows: Download previous purchases from the iTunes Store

I am trying to upgrade to Lion. I need to go through Mac App store to buy it. I need to get the Mac App store icon in my dock. I have run Update Software several times, trying to get the Mac App store onto my iMac, but with no luck. It doesn't show up in the dock, it doesn't show up in Finder under Applications, and it doesn't show up when I search in Searchlight for App Store, Store, Mac App Store, etc. What am I doing wrong?
I am running snow leopard
James....
You arne't necessarily doing anything wrong.
Install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
That should reinstall the App Store for you.
Restart your Mac after the combo is finished installing.
You should see the App Store icon in the Dock and be able to access from your Apple menu also.
Make sure your Mac meet's Lion's requirements -
My ipad2 settings menu does not have an update software listed. I'm trying to update to ios5
My ipad2 settings page menu does not have an 'update software' on it. How do I update to ios5?
The update to iOS 5 is a lengthy process. Your entire device is being backed up, then wiped, then the new OS is installed, then your apps, etc., rebuilt on the device. If you have a lot apps, etc., on your device it will take a long time to update.

I have problems updating my iphone 4 to ios 7.0.6. Everything seems ok, it is downloading, installing and restarting but it is still ios 7.0.4 on the phone. No error messages, everything seems ok. What is wrong?
I've never seen this. Try updating via iTunes on your computer. Plug it in and see if iTunes says it needs updating.
It worked via iTunes
Thank you -
Do you have to update software?
do you have to update software after downloadign the new 7.0 itunes in order to download movies to you ripod?
Brittany,
See my other reply to you. The answer is to play movies you've purchased from the store, you're probably going to need the firmware update, though you can try without it. You might not need it to see the TV shows or music videos, but I'm not sure. -

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
iPad Tip - You may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

HT4623 3GS doesnt have the update software options so what do I do?
3GS doesnt have the update software option under general settings..I want to update my version of itunes to be able to download the Times Mobile App..cant seem to do it..
The feature you are looking for is available with iOS 5 or later. You will need to update your iPhone with iTunes on a Mac or PC.
Hope that helps -

my iphone 3gs does not have the update software button how do i update it?
It isn't in the device pane. If you have selected your iPhone, then on the right side you should see information on what is contained on your iPhone. There should be a number of tabs towards the top, Summary, Info, Music, Photos, etc. Not necessarily in that order. On the Info tab is where you should find the tab. It should look like this.
