I think I chose the wrong Installation Option - Now what???

I installed Leopard right when it came out and love the new OS. But, at the time I did not know what the various installation options meant or implicated. So, I chose the first/default "Upgrade OSX" option.
Now, I have not been having any specific problems, but I think my computer should be faster when loading certain apps and toggling around between spaces, dashboard, and multitasking. The more I read about the installation options, I feel that my mac would run better if I reinstalled Leopard using another installation option, like Archive and Install.
Is this a true concern? Should I reinstall using another option to operate at full potential? How do I go about doing that... same as before? Any help or suggestions is appreciated.
Phil

Hi Phil Mutz;
So far I have used Upgrade to install Leopard on five Macs, two of my own and three for friends. So far all of them are all operating just as they were with Tiger. From my experiences with Leopard, I suspect that your problem is elsewhere on your system rather then how you installed Leopard.

How can you change the Itunes library? I updated it, and chose the wrong library, and now I can't change it helppppppp pleasee!!! D: ;(

This *****! I updated my Itunes, and it asked me to choose a library, and I chose the wrong one, and now I can't change it. What am I supposed to do now?

Firstly, I caution your approach to allow users to alter the orientation of the report. Crystal Reports doesn't adapt too well when the orientation is modified. You'll end up with fields dropped off on the right hand side of the report, or with a large gap on the right. Our engine doesn't do any auto adjusting of fields when you alter the orientation.
In order to see the changes it is best to re-load the page and get a new viewer. You can choose to store the ParameterFields in a Session variable for re-use on the post back so your users aren't re-prompted for values.

I can not deauthorise my computer . Itunes store issue " Can not deauthorise " I think i chose some wrong items . Please help me !

click on the store tab on the top left of iTunes. Scroll to where it says "Authorize this computer...". Click on that and enter your apple id and password then click authorize. The reason iTunes says that your computer needs to be authorized is because it is to be sure that iTunes knows can trust your new computer

My 4S died and I was given a new one. Now I can't get it to sync with my old info. I think I put the wrong email address for my apple ID, how can I change it?

My 4S died this week and I was told it could not be repaired, so I was issued a new one. During set up I could not remember my password, so set up a new one. I think I used the wrong email address, not sure. At any rate, now my phone and pad don't sync. How can I get this corrected? Thanks!

It looks like your printer isn't on the list of air print enabled printers. It'll still work, you just need to do some tweaking.
You can see if samsung has any apps to enable printing.
or
You can look into a third party app like Print n Share or Print Central.
Then you can print from your iPad.

To free up hard drive space the best bet is to move data files that you don't need access to all the time. Likely candidates are music, video, and photos. Things like word processing and spreadsheet files can also be moved but they tend not to be very large and so don't free up much space. The problem with moving the above mentioned files is that iTunes and iPhoto need to know where the files are stored.
Here's an article explaining how to move the iTunes folder. You can move the iPhoto library using the Finder but there is a slight complication. Start iPhoto, open the Preferences and click on the Advanced tab. The first option is "Copy items to the iPhoto Library". If this option is checked, copy the iPhoto library to your external folder (drag it from the Pictures folder to your external drive) and then delete it from your Picture folder. If this option is not checked, it is a bit more complicated and we'll need to talk a bit.

What is the difference b/t the macbook a1432 and a1181, i think i ordered the wrong case?

what is the difference b/t the macbook a1432 and a1181, i think i ordered the wrong case?

A1181 is any of the seventeen models of the white or black MacBooks with the removable battery.
A1278 is the one model of the Aluminum Unibody
A1342 are the two models of the White Unibody
There's no model A1432.
To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info (and then System Report if you’re running 10.7 Lion). When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.

Hi osh17,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. You can turn off Accessibility features using a computer as well. That may be easier to do if Zoom is causing difficulty in using your device:

This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
This is a picture of what it looks like now:

As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
any way to get around that?

I've tried looking at my own itunes account but I cannot seem to find the allowance account, it says I currently have zero allowance accounts.
All I want to do is change the assigned email address.

Who is the email provider? Not all accounts can be set up as POP3
