I upgraded iTunes to 11.1.5 with Snow Leopard. I was told that shouldn't have taken place despite being suggested by the software update notice. At that point it wouldn't open. I then upgraded to Mavericks, but it still doesn't start despite clicking.
I had been using an old iTunes program. This was with Snow Leopard. I bought a Nano 7, but it wouldn't work with the old iTunes. I upgraded to the newest edition, but then iTunes wouldn't open. I was told by Apple that the computer shouldn't have downloaded the latest iTunes (but it did). I was told I needed to upgrade to Mavericks.
So I di. iTunes still won't open, whether from the doc or the Application file. I tried to delete it and reinstall, but the computer won't let me. So how can I get iTunes to work?
Thanks!
Version 11.1.5.5 of iTunes was just released today. If you update to that, does that help with the recognition troubles?

Hi, I am trying upgrade to Snow leopard 10.6.8 from 6.3(trying to install Lion). After downloading the software i m getting a message "can not install on the HD, install 6.5 before proceeding further. I coud not understand. Any suggestions, I appreciate.
install 6.5 before proceeding further. I coud not understand.
Just what it says - install os 10.6.5 before proceeding further. You can either do so through Software Update or use the Combo update from Apple's download site.
You should repair permissions and restart your computer prior to updating and upgrading. -
Hi, I have Mac with Snow Leopard and was trying to purchase Lion , so I can move to I cloud, when trying to buy the app I get a message that a minimum 2gb of memory is required. I went check the hard disck info and it says available memory 20gb :-(
Apple Logo, left hand side of the menu bar, About this Mac. It should be right there. If not then More Info, Sys Info.
But it would seem you don't have 2GBs installed and more then likely both RAM slots are already filed. So you just need to buy more RAM in a pair. That could be 2 1GBs chips or if your Mac can have more then that then 2 2 GB chips or 2 4GB chips.
Get your model # and go to Crucial.com and use their memory search to find out how much your Mac can have installed and the price for it. I suggest you install as much as it can take. Cost is very low on RAM these days. -
Worth upgrading to Mountain Lion or stick with Snow Leopard?
A few weeks ago some of you helped me navigate the pros/cons of buying a spanking new Imac vs a mid 2011 (I decided the 2011 was plenty worthy). I thank you for that, and now I want to ask: if I were to get a mid 2011 Imac, is it worth to upgrade to the latest OS, or is sticking with Snow Leopard (my current OS) fine?
I'm using some older software like FCP 6 and its associated suite of programs, and probably plenty of other applications I'm not thinking of at the moment, that I got back in '08 or so when I got the Imac I have now. I think I've heard that Lion/Mountain is a total overhaul of the OS compared to Snow Leopard, and that makes me wonder if there are compatibility issues/problems associated with trying to use these older pieces of software with the new OS. What are the super amazing benefits of Lion or Mountain Lion vs Snow Leopard? Are they worth it? Do the aforementioned issues exist? Thanks.Someone else will need to answer your Time Machine question because I do not use it. It may work because it should port over all the applications, settings, etc. I was going on the assumption that you would be reinstalling your apps from scratch (I guess I thought that because that is what I did - I wanted as clean an install as possible). Anyway, TM should just transfer things - just remember, if any of those transferred apps have PPC installers and you get rid of your Snow Leopard machine, you'll never be able to reinstall them.

iPhone User Guide (For iOS 4.2 and 4.3 Software) -
THis is now the 5 th time I have written this !!!
I have a iPhone 4s i did the software update ages ago and lost the camera roll .....then I did the update and all my photos returned ...now on Christmas eve they all dissapeared
I now just albums .... All Photos but that only has 77 photos , and that's it over 1000 photos have just gone ??
PLease help me !!Why should we care how many times you've written this? Are you making multiple threads? Are they being deleted by the Hosts?
Did you make a backup of your iPhone before you updated the iOS?
Did you import the photos to your computer?
Were the photos in the Camera Roll, Photo Stream or synced iTunes albums? -
Plese Help. Me have FAT 32 USB, ISO, Boot cam say can't install windows support software because the software update server "(null)" can't be found.
I know there are many other threads, but I guess I couldn't find clear answer to this problem. Is that the Apple's server problem or just me?
I'm trying to install Windows7 via Bootcamp, with FAT 32 formated USB with ISO, on Macbook air 2012.
Thanks!The problem is the encryption and how your notebook handles it rather than a Time Capsule problem. I had similar problems until I updated the WLAN drivers on my IBM T41.
The way I convinced myself it wasn't an Apple problem was to connect my IBM T41, via ethernet, to my AEBSn. I was able to connect to internet so I knew it was a conflict between my wireless card and the AEBSn.
I am now using the WPA2 encryption for the AEBS without issue and connecting many different types of hardware; three iPod Touches, two MSI Wind Netbooks (Win XP SP3), one IBM T41 (Win XP SP2) wirelessly and both my 20" iMac and Dell 8250 Win XP (SP2) by ethernet
The MSI Winds are brand new and they would connect to the AEBSn but couldn't get an IP address from the internet (Limited or No Connectivity error message). The AEBSn was using WEP encryption. After doing a little research I found that WEP was a very common cause of this error message so I switched the AEBSn to WPA2 and everything works fine now.
Don't assume that because you can't connect via OPEN it isn't a encryption issue because my Winds wouldn't connect that way either...it wasn't until I changed to the WPA2 Personal that they connected.
You may also need to change the program that handles the WLAN connection, sometimes Windows handles it better but for the newest addition to our household, the MSI Winds, I am using the Realtek utility that matches the WLAN card and everything is hunky dory...
Finally sometimes firewalls will prevent getting the IP address...doesn't happen often but it has happened to me so I would double-check that by turning off the Windows Firewall and just verify that it isn't the firewall (that's never been a problem with my Apple AEBSn but it was a problem with an older Dlink g model). -
As stated above, I've been at it all day "Turning my phone on and off, resetting my wifi (did it nine times), held the power button and home button (did that three times), made space (got 1.2GB left, and it's like around 600 or 500 Mb to install it. I already downloaded it by the way, I just can't install it cause I get "Not connected to wifi" over and over). I've looked at this forum up and down till I got sick and tired of seeing the synonymous thing. All I want is to update it, I have wifi but it just tells me "not connected to wifi) and lets me try again, and I did like legit 25times, I even went to a different sites and all came up to be non-conclusive. I did see that connecting to iTunes on the pc would work but my pc is rather slow and I don't have iTunes downloaded at all either on it; so you could imagine why I'm trying to do this on my iPhone. Is there any other method? Or something else I can do? I've been turning my phone off all day to no effect..help would be greatly appreciated, and like I said: "I read all the forum post on here and tried all (except the iTunes pc one).
Hi FerretMouser,
No matter how slow your PC is, you would have had this resolved hours ago had you taken that route. It is the only option you have left at this point.
Best of luck,

After upgrade to mountain lion a hd with snow leopard will not boot and run the MBP
Upgraded MacBook Pro to 10.8.2. Works fine. Swapped out the internal hard drive with 10.8.2 on it, put in the old hard drive with 10.6.8 and booted up as per usual. Mac fires up but dos not finish the boot process and it leaves me with an on and off pulsating gray folder that has a question mark on it. I have tried a brand new drive with a new 10.6.8 installed and it misbehaves the same way.
Does the Apple store upgrade process alter the internal MacBook Pro or its software in any way? I was not, am not aware of such software. I want to be able to carry along two hard drives, swappable, with different OSX and applications when I go out to help people out of their problems. Something I have done successfully for the past 15 years - free of charge, I might add.
This is the first time that I am stumped. I am not a programmer btw.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Meanwhile I shall keep on muckng about.Your problem is that your old HD is no longer blessed. if you can, connect both drives at the smae time, then
First, open the “Startup Disk” preference pane and select “Mac OS X” as the operating system to boot. This will re-bless your Mac OS X volume on the older install.
No need to delete or zero the drive at all.

I updated my iPhone 4s to the iOS 5.1 last Friday. I noticed the next day that the pictures that I had taken with only this phone were gone from my photos. I still have over 1600 pictures on my phone that are there, only the ones taken from this device are missing. Where did they go when I syned my phone? I can't find them in my iTunes.
You should be importing all pics taken with iphone to your computer regularly, particularly before any update, restore, etc.
If for some reason you have failed to do this, tehn they are very likely gone.
You can try restoring from backup. -
How can I get iLife for an older macbook with Snow Leopard?
I have a 2008 macbook. I just got Snow Leopard and was told I don't have the specs to upgrade to Mountain Lion. When I upgraded, I lost my whole iLife suite (I think because it was actually just a trial or sample), but I can't buy the latest version of iLife because it requires Mountain Lion.
I feel like Apple is trying to force me into buying a new computer, which really *****! They should offer support to all of their users, not just the most up-to-date ones....The whole reason I originally switched to mac was so that I wouldn't have to buy a new computer every few years!
And before anyone suggests anything with disks, I don't have my original install disks. I'm living abroad and it was 5 years ago...
Any suggestions?If you are unsuccessful in obtaining replacement disks for your Macbook you can purchase an iLife 09 disk for a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: iLife 09

When I try to open the iphoto it keeps on asking for the software update, but when I click on the software update it says that all the software in the computer are up to date. I still cant open the iphoto, what should I do?
How old is your Mac? If it's very recent you need to update via the App Store
If you purchased at the App Store you need to update via the App Store
Otherwise you update via Softare Update
If you have moved iPhoto from the default location (i.e. into a Folder) then the updater won't find it. Move it back.
If you have renamed iPhoto, the updater won't find it. Change it back.

We upgraded or computer from os x to Snow Leopard 10.6.3 now our icons for safari and mail won't open
Drag the icons from the Dock, go to the Applications folder and drag Safari and Mail (one at a time) to the Dock. Don't release the mouse button until the adjaxent icons move out of the way for the one you're adding.
That should compensate for the updates to Mail and Safari introduced with SL.
