I think I have all the requirements to upgrade to Mavericks, but it still says I can't.  Why?

What am I missing?

Check your computer against these requirements:
   OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
      Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
         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?

  • How do you know if you have all the requirements in order to download Firefox?

    I've been trying to update my Firefox (version 3.6.17) so I can still go on YouTube and to just update it. I've already tried to reinstall it, but its the same version. I would like to know if there's a command for terminal to show if I have all the requirements needed in order to download the latest version of Firefox.

  • I am unable to upgrade to Mavericks even though I seem to have all the requirements listed by Apple.

    When offered the free upgrade in App Store, I am unable to upgrade to Mavericks even though I seem to have all the requirements listed by Apple.
    Model: MacBookPro 2,2, Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo, Speed: 2,33 GHz, Processors: 1, Cores: 2, L2 Cache: 4 MB, Memory: 4GB
    Bus Speed: 667MHz, Boot Rom Version: MBP22 00A5.B07, SMC Version: 1.12f5.

    10.7.5 is the max for your model. Your mac is one model too old to run anything higher.

  • HT201364 i have all the requirements except 8gb of available space. my mac only has 4gb capacity.is there any way to get a smaller version of the mavericks software?

    I have all the requirements except8gb of available space. my mac only has 4gb capacity.is there any way to get a smaller version of the mavericks software?

    That refers to free disk space, not RAM. If your computer has 4GB of RAM, that's enough. If it only has 4GB of free disk space, you need to delete content from the internal drive; for best results, free up at least 20GB.

  • I think I have all the settings right, why doesn't iCloud work?

    I think I have all the settings correct, but nothing is happening.  I post on calendar, it isn't on other devices.  Contacts didn't showmupmeither.
    Mail might be right. i can send mail from both, but how do I add folders?  I cannot find directions anyplace.

    My only problem right now is iCal.  Nothing is syncing but I discovered I did not sign up for Mobile Me.  Here is where my real problem comes in: I need a password to sign up for Mobile Me and everytime I put in a password, Apple won't accept it.  I have changed my password 6 or 7 times today.  When I get the new one, it will let me in to do that particular thing, but five minutes later, I try something else, and I get the error message.  I KNOW what I'm putting in is correct.
    10 minutes ago I changed my password.  I checked in here at the discussions....got right in with the new password. Went to Mobile Me...get error message that this is the wrong password.
    What do I do about this?  It's been going on all day.  I am trying to install iOS5 but I can't get in anything because of the password problem.  I don't have a clue what to do.  My warranty is off so I ca't call Apple for free and they charge a lot for phone help.  Do you have any idea what the problem is with the password  and what I can do to solve it?
    Thanks so much.

  • I have deleted email and photos from my device but icloud still says I don't have any storage

    I have deleted emails and photos from my device but iCloud still says I don't have enough storage to download the latest iOS version

    You'll have to delete more data from the device. 
    Go to Settings>General>Usage to see how much "Storage" you have available on the device.  (Ignore storage on icloud, since that is not part of the equation.)

  • HT201343 I have all the requirements on my computer for mirroring my computer to the apple tv but I don't have that option. why?

    I just bought my macbook pro last March 2012 and I have all the computer requirements for the ability to mirror my computer to my apple tv however I do not have the option on my computer.  Why?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Open  > About this Mac, and tell me what OS X version you have. You need OS X 10.8 to be able to use AirPlay Mirroring.
    If you haven't got Mountain Lion, open the App Store and purchase Mountain Lion. While its installer is being downloaded, make a backup of your data and check that your applications are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com
    When its download finishes, the Mountain Lion installer will show up, so follow the steps. After upgrading, you will see the AirPlay menu on the menu bar.
    If you don't want to upgrade, you can use a third-party app like AirParrot > http://www.airparrot.com
