I have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 but when I try to purchase Snow Lion I am told this cannot be downloaded on my mac. Please help!

Apple website says I need Snow Leopard 10.6.8 to upgrade to Snow Lion. I have exactly that. But when I try to purchase Snow Lion on the App Store , I get a message saying 'Snow Lion' cannot be installed on your mac. My mac was born sometime in 2007 I think but if it has 10.6.8 why can I not install Snow lion??

Is your Mac an iMac, or Macbook?
Here are the system requirements for Mountain Lion (I think is what your refer to as Snow Lion) in the link below.

Get on a computer with iTunes. Click on your email in the iTunes Store, and hit account. Change billing info to None as card type, make sure billing address is correct, and hit done. It will then save, and allow you to make your purchases.

You stated; " I have been successful with My Power Mac "
A Power Mac is incapable of being upgraded to Mavericks. It is a PPC Mac which can only run versions of OS X up to 10.5.8 and no higher. Any version of OS X higher that 10.5.8 requires an Intel processor to run.
Does the iMac meet the hardware requirements for Mavericks?

I have money in my itunes account but when I try to buy a song it doesn't let me buy it or download. It doesn't do anything!

You cannot and need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if the article doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
Changing the rescue email address requires supplying two of the answers. They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

I redeemed a gift card, the amount shows up in the top right corner but when I try to purchase music it goes to the account that I have loaded. How do I use the gift card?

I redeemed a gift card, the amount shows up in the top right corner of my account but when I try to purchase music it goes to the account that I have loaded previously. How do I use the gift card?

If the amount of the purchase is close to $21.07, then you need to take into account taxes may be added.
If you go beyond the credit from a gift card the balance will be billed to your credit card account.

I have a balance on my ITunes account, but when I try to purchase music, it says my credit card will be charged. Why can't I see my balance

I have a balance on my ITunes account, but when I try to purchase music, it says my credit card will be charged. Why can't I use my current balance? and why does't it show up in the ITunes store account. It appears on my IPhone.

Well no, not from my experience. Last night, with a balance of about $42 in the iTunes store (several gift cards this summer) I purchased a 4.99 app - credit card was charged, not the balance in the iTunes store.

HT1311 I have done all of the above but when I try to update my Apps it still says that my ID is not valid for the US store and I must switch to the UK? My settings already say I am with the UK? What do I do?

ok well like lllaass said, most apps require 4.3 or later iOS software. chances are since the apps worked before, the apps themselves got updated and will no longer work with your software version.

I have updates for iMovie and iPhoto but when i try to update them i'm told To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it." even though i bought it and it is on my iMac!

Hi...
Delete both apps using this utility > Download AppCleaner for Mac - Uninstall your apps easily. MacUpdate.com
That will delete the apps and all associated files.
Then re download the apps. That will download the most recent version updates included.
How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed then click Install.
Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

Good question. I haven't purchased an eBook, but all other purchases have been subject to sales tax (Canada).

Purchases are tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with. If you use a new ID, you have to buy again.
