I have version 10.6.8 and want to get icloud. How do I do that? Can I also upgrade to the lion?

Open the Mac App Store and try purchasing Mountain Lion 10.8. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) or better CPU with at least 2GB of RAM, and if it does, phone the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.

Hello!
I have a two page letter that I am putting together for my company.
I need the logo on the first page, but the next page(s) i do not want the logo and i do not want the indentation.
can someone help me solve this problem. Know it must be a quick fix
I also have the new version of Pages installed as well.

In Word, all you should have to do (with the document open, of course), is choose Insert > Page Numbers… . Choose how you want them to appear and click OK.
Make sure to save the file to retain the page number addition.

1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPod but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPod with it.
above covers purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I'm not sure what you are asking, but if you want to watch TV stations you can watch on your mac in a web browser on the Apple TV instead, I'm sorry you can't do that.

I am a novice. I have a few thousand iPhotos stored on Dropbox. But now I have a Canon T5i camera and want to get more involved in photography. I want to open a Lightroom and Photoshop account. I have a Windows desktop and an iPad. Will I have any compatibility issues with PC and Mac? Can I store my photos in Lightroom and eliminate my Dropbox account? Thanks.

You shouldn't have any compatibility issues. But you don't store images "in" Lightroom. Lightroom simply points to wherever the images are on your system. You might like to watch a few videos that can help you understand how Lightroom works.

I have upgraded my software to OS X Snow Leopard. Now I want to update that to Lion. How do I do that? When I look at the Lion software available for download on the apple site it all seems to be update software for people already a version of Lion.

It has to be 10.6.8 I believe, before you can upgrade to Lion. I found some more info, please check out: http://www.informationweek.com/byte/howto/personal-tech/desktop-os/231001728
Be sure all your programms will work on Lion. Power PC programms do not work anymore (eg Nikon Scan 4 will not work from now on on Mac OS X). Some versions of Canon utilities for camera's do not work, Canon still have to upgrade. For an App Compatibility Table: http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

I have a Mac with snow leopard. I am using firefox 3.5.11 and want to install the most current version. I downloaded it and when I try to drop it on my applications it says I don't have permission to access some of the items.

Every time Firefox opened

Hello Curly59,
''"do you want to replace the newer version that is already installed with this older one?" ''
it is correct
1. Download a copy of the latest firefox from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
2. '''Trash''' the current Firefox application to do a clean install.
3. Install the version that you have downloaded.
Do not select to remove your personal data, your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks or other personal data.

I have Safari 5.1.10 and want to get the newer version. This may be a dumb question, but do I have to pay to get an upgrade, or is this just a software update. I am not very technical. Please advise!

I have a Mac OS X, version 10.6.8, and I am using safari 5.1.10. I think I need to get a newer version of Safari if this is possible.
How do I go about doing this? Do I have to purchase a different "safari" product?
I'm obviously not very technical, and don't know how to proceed! The reason I want to change this is because
I keep getting messages saying that my web brower (isn't that what safari is?) is out of date. Please advise!

For you it requires an upgrade of OS X. Since you have 10.6.8 installed you can upgrade directly to Yosemite for free provided your hardware meets the requirements:
Upgrading to Yosemite
You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Yosemite
To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
    OS X Mavericks/Yosemite - System Requirements
    Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
     Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
Now there is an issue on Apple's server that seems to keep users with 10.6.8 from downloading Yosemite. Apple is working on the problem, so be patient and keep trying

HT204053 I have two Apple ID's and want to get rid of one of them. How can i delete the extra one ?

How can I delete an extra Apple ID ?
I just want to have one only for my Iphone and for my Mac.
Thank you for any advice.

I went to the Apple support site last nite for a live chat.
The tech there suggested 2 separate actions;
Here they are, verbatum;
# 1
Go to,
Store-ID-sign out
#2
Change the password to a random string of numbers and letters and set up the other account on both services.
So...
That's it. Neither suggestion worked for me so I'm going up to the apple store in Century City and see if one of the geniuses can straighten me out.

I have a PowerBook G4 PPC and want to get it running like new.

I have a PowerBook G4 that I bought new years ago. It still works and I use it as a print server for an old Laser Writer Pro 630. It has old drawing software like MacroMedia Freehand MX and Bryce that I still use, but can't on my new machines. I'd like to go through the PowerBook and remove software that's not needed and get ride of all the associated parts. Streamline it if you will. I'm sure there's stuff running in the background that I don't need that makes it run slow. Is there some way to do that?

The big problem is a lot of web applications don't run on Powermacs. If you are willing to live with limited Java and Flash, turning those off, or using Tenfourfox as a web browser can take a load off your Mac. Keeping your hard drive less than 85% full also helps.

I have an 11" MacBook Air and want to get a higher capacity storage hard drive. Where can I buy it? Who can install it?

Looking to increase my hard drive storage. I have a mid-2011 MacBook Air 11", 1.6 GHz Intel Core i5, 2 GB 1333 MHz DDR3, Intel HD Graphics 3000 288 MB
Where can I find a larger, durable hard drive. I have maxxed-out my MacBook Air! Does the Apple Store install them?

macbook Air is a "working platform" computer, not meant for mass storage.
You can get a 1TB Toshiba external slim USB HD for $65
The Hitachi/Toshiba 2.5" are the most durable conventional external HD available.

I have never used a BT and want to get one for my car...

....I'm hesitant because I read about so many problems that are stumping folks far more knowledgable than I. I was going to ask about which moderately priced BT device might pair well w/ my new 4s.

I'm using this bluetooth earpiece for iphone4, works great. And it seems to pair with iphone 4s too.

I have version 10.6.8 and want to get icloud. How do I do that? Can I also upgrade to the lion?
