I'm running Snow Leopard, do I have to upgrade to maverick or can I just upgrade to the new one?

If your Mac's compatible with Yosemite, you can upgrade directly to it.

Snow Leopard client or Snow Leopard Server ?

I just installed the new mountain lion software on my iMac. I was currently running Snow Leopard. My problem is with my mouse. Now when I scroll down the page it moves in the opposite direction. I checked system S.P. - Natural for scroll feature.

I just installed the new mountain lion software on my iMac. I was currently running Snow Leopard. My problem is with my mouse. Now when I scroll down the page it moves in the opposite direction. In system preferences I tried checking and unchecking Natural for scroll feature. Movement from side to side works fine. Has anyone experienced this problem?

I think this new scrolling behaviour was introduced with Lion. You do get used to it pretty quickly (well I did). Are you sure that deselecting Natural Scrolling in Mouse Prefs doesn't re-instate the previous behaviour, it does here.

As long as you have the serial number you should not have an issue installing and activating Lightroom when you finish the system reinstall.

I can't find the mac app store on my imac. i am running snow leopard, and i have run "update software" several times. what's up?

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?

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

I have an iMac mid-2010 running Snow Leopard. Is it possible to install Mavericks and Windows 8 on separate partitions while keeping Snow Leopard?

I have an iMac mid-2010 running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Is it possible to install Mavericks and Windows 8 on separate partitions while keeping Snow Leopard? If so, can you describe the steps?

That should not be a problem as long as there is enough room on each partition for each OS.
You would:
Use Disk Utility to partition your HD
Download the Mavericks installer and install it on one of the open partitions (when you run the installer from your 10.6.8 partition, it will ask you where you want to put Mavericks, and you will specify one of the open partitions).
Use Boot Camp to install Windows on another of the open partitions. Mac Basics: Using Windows on your Mac via Boot Camp

I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and was wondering if I can upgrade to the upcoming Mtn Lion OSX, or do I need to upgrade to Lion first.

I am currently running Snow Leopard OSX 10.6.8 on an iMac. Was wondering if I have to
upgrade to Lion OSX before upgrading to Mountain Lion OSX or can I just jump to Mountain Lion?

No one in these forums know the answer to that. We will all have to wait and see what the requirements are.

I have an iMac running snow leopard. I have trouble with my internal speakers, I cannot adjust the volume without having an earphone plugged into the jack.

The volume only works when I have earphones plugged into the jack, otherwise when I try to adjust the volume it has a circle with a cross. Ive tried restarting it with and without the headphones plugged in. However it does make that mac sound when turning on the machine before the apple logo comes on and takes me to the desktop screen. Is there anything I can do to fix this??

I'm having a very similar problem.
I've got a 2010 iMac that I've got hooked up to my Pioneer Elite via HDMI cable using the Moshi adapter.
It's been working great for months, but today the audio began dropping out -- a fraction of a second, every six seconds or so.
I installed the latest Snow Leopard update today. Does anyone think there might be a connection?
thx!

I have an issue with my Bravia after hooking up apple TV (the new one from a few months ago 7/2012)

I have the Bravia and all was well. I have a sony tuner and the blue ray and cable/tivo and mac mini were all plugged into the tuner and the tuner into an HDMI port.
then i got apple tv. I plugged it in to a separate HDMI port and i got a strange screen. I believe I activated the apple TV from the Mac mini somehow, even though the apple tv was not plugged into the tuner or the mac mini. I really cannot remember how but I think it was the PC port, maybe there are two PC ports? Anyway instead of the advertising screen, with all the tv shows to choose from, i got a gray and black screen with a half a wheel that scrolled up and down and it had three repeating choices, I forget what they were, "network" maybe? "setup", I can't remember. And the three repeated. I did click on each of these words to the next screen and there were drop down menus to choose from. I went back to Apple and asked and they showed me what the screen should look like, with all the shows listed in boxes. They showed me how to access the apple tv once it was plugged in. I went home and was able to get to the "proper" screen, but then that was all I did was access the main menu. I did not watch any TV on it. Now my mac mini cannot be seen by the Bravia TV and I bought a brand new mac mini and it cannot be seen. I have plugged them into the tuner, the way it was before, I have plugged them into HDMI ports, but there is no sound and no picture and no PC showing up. I went to apple and they thought maybe the mac mini wasn't seeing the "proper" screen, and they told me to press command and option and P and R all at the same time right at boot up of the mac mini. This would force the computer to look for new screens (and I waited for 3 sounds like they said) but still nothing on the screen. Now I took the new mac mini upstiars where I have another mac mini plugged into a TV and it works just fine. I am stumped. I have plugged this mac mini into every HDMI port, I have changed inputs to each port, I plugged it into the tuner and changed all the ports, it just cannot be seen. Someone suggested that Apple TV and Bravia do not mix. We spent a lot of time setting the Bravia to access the blue ray, the mac mini and the cable/tivo through the tuner. do i reset the Bravia to factory settings? I do not want to do this if this is not the answer, or if this is probably not the answer, but it's all I can come up with. Any hep is appreciated

there is a dylib you can put in the springboard if jailbroken but if not you have to find an apple store

I have two podcast folders. I can't delete and redownload the old ones because they are not available any more. How can I get them into the new folder?

The problem of having 2 'Podcast' folders / menu items after adding a new podcast through clicking on a link in the browser has been addressed on the forums by instructing users to resubscribe to existing podcasts, which then appear in the new folder, and delete the old folder. This will not work for me as most of the podcasts I listen to are BBC, which vanish from the web 7 days after they were first broadcast (about which much swearing, but that's unalterable). Consequently I can't adopt this solution.
I have resubscribed to the podcasts using the link in a browser method, so that they all appear and (in theory) will download new episodes again. However, this leaves the old episodes missing. What must I do to get the episodes downloaded from the old podcasts recognised as belonging to the new subscriptions?

I found a very fast and easy solution: I selected all the podcasts in the first window, copied them using the command in the Menu>Edit (Command+C did not seem to work). I then pasted them into the new empty folder. All the podcasts already downloaded appeared. The only problem is that some podcasts did not remember which had been viewed or not, while did keep the information. I just had to re-subscribe to the ones I still wanted by clicking on button.
For some reason, the previous Podcasts folder was only recogized as a list by iTunes, this showed up when I deleted the previous folder (contextual menu). I also had to re-select which ones I wanted synced with my iPad and iPhone.
(I did make a backup of the Podcasts folder in the Finder, just in case, a bit like voodoo computing)

I have 2 Pages icons. How can I get rid of the old one?*

I can't gey it out of launchpad. It won't go in the trash. It's confusing to have 2 icons.

Hi rointhestudy,
I understand you have duplicate icons of the Pages application in Launchpad. Here is some more information:
OS X Lion: About duplicate icons in Launchpad
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4836
Launchpad will display an icon for each copy of an application that is currently installed (as well as any aliases to those applications), so you will see more than one icon for an application if you have more than one version of the application installed or aliased.
It sounds like we want to remove the duplicate from your computer:
OS X Mountain Lion: Install, update, and uninstall apps
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11356
To uninstall apps you purchased from the Mac App Store, hold down an app’s icon in Launchpad until all the icons begin to jiggle. Click an app’s delete button (x) to uninstall the app.
If an icon doesn’t have a delete button, that app can’t be uninstalled. For example, apps that come with OS X can’t be uninstalled.
Thanks,
Matt M.

How can I post panoramic type (and sized) pictures to my desktop so that they maintain panoramic dimensions? I try to do it through systems preferences but they do not maintain panoramic dimensions. Thanks

Your post is pretty lengthy and I have to admit I didn't read it all. Please try restarting in Safe Mode, if that doesn't work please do both a SMC and PRAM reset. These may take 2-3 attempts.
SMC RESET
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Attach the computers power cable.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
PRAM RESET
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
