I was told at the Apple store that Apple was now offering Pages, numbers and keynote free with the Mavericks download. I noticed that I got the free when I downloaded the newest operating system on my iPad. True? And if so, how do you do it?

I was told at the Apple Store when Mavericks was introduced that Pages, Numbers and Keynote would be offered at no charge with Mavericks. When I downloaded Mavericks, I could not figure out how to download them without the charges. When I downloaded the most recent OS to my iPad, I got a prompt to download them. Can someone tell me how to download them without the charges?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
It's not correct at all. It is true that Apple is offering Numbers, Keynote and Pages for free, but only for users who have purchased a Mac after October 1st, 2013, and for existing iWork '09 users. If you have not got iWork '09 and you purchased your Mac before October 1st, you need to pay for these apps.
The new iWork version (Numbers, Keynote and Pages) is criticised by its lack of features. Instead, I recommend you to get LibreOffice or, if you need the most complete productivity suite, Office for Mac. Give LibreOffice a try first

It will input your Quicken PPC data file directly if it was Quicken 2005 through 2007. If older you need Quicken 2006 or 2007 PPC first to convert your data file; and this update must be done BEFORE you upgrade to Mavericks:

I downloaded the newest operating system for my iphone 4s and now i cant unlock it, what should i do?

my iphone 4s wont let me unlock it ever since i downloaded the newest operating system (5.1.1) what should i do?

Try connecting to iTunes and see if you can do a restore...first, though, have you tried a soft reset: hold both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts?

Can I upgrade my Macbook Pro to the newest operating systems?

My Macbook Pro is currently running Mac OSX 10.6.8 and never had snow leopard installed. I was wondering if my system would even be able to run the newest operating system.
Second I was wondering if it is even worth upgrading to. I have had a lot of trouble with my system freezing up and didnt know if a software update could help this problem out.

10.6.8 is Snow Leopard.
Depending what model your MBP is, it might not be a wise choice to bloat it with 10.7 or 10.8, especally since it won't run any PPC based software or hardware drivers your using.
Apple Menu > About this Mac > more information should show a model number like "MacBook Pro 4,1"
then download and install MacTracker, punch that in to find your machine and the latest OS X version you can run.
If your machine originally came with 10.5, I serious suggest you stick with 10.6.8
Second I was wondering if it is even worth upgrading to. I have had a lot of trouble wit my system freezing up and didnt know if a software update could help this problem out.
Upgrading to a newer OS X version won't likely cure your problems, just create more.

How do I update my old MacBook to the newest operating system, but want to clean it out thoroughly first (without losing my data). How should I best go about doing this?

Hi everybody. I have a MacBook that's about five years old. I want to buy the newest operating system so that it runs better (because currently it is struggling), however I would like to clean up all the old software before I do that. I want it to be as clean and new as possible before I buy the new operating system, instead of just downloading it ontop of all of the rubbish I must have accumulated. I also want to keep my data (documents, photographs etc). Would anybody be kind enough to provide me with a step-by-step (can be as concise as you like, depending on how much time/effort you have to explain!) guide as to how I might go about doing this myself? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank so much guys.

Step number one - Back up all your important data!
Seriously, it sounds like you are working without backups. Don't ever do this. Hard drives fail, it is a fact of life. Don't be one of those who get caught without a backup. An external hard drive, burning it all to DVDs, or online backup will save you frustration and money.
Two - don't expect a new operating system to improve performance. Get the computer running as best as it can before you upgrade. You may need more RAM or a bigger hard drive.

HT3964 My Mac OX 10.9.2 is unable to read any disk since I updated the new operating system on it a few months ago. How may I resolve this problem?

My Mac OS X 10.9.2 is unable to read any disc since I updated the operating system to Marverick a few months back. How can i resolve this problem because I need to retrieve very important information on my discs. Help! Thank you... paul

Paul,
Your problem has nothign to do with your installation of Mavericks. I assume you are referring to your SuperDrive not being able to read any discs, is that correct? If so then please advise what troubleshooting steps you have taken?

What is the newest operating system I can upgrade to with an IMAC (maximum 4gb memory) purchased in late 2007

I have an IMAC (purchased in late 2007) that has been upgraded to the maximum memory of 4GB. Current operating system is 10.6.8.
How much farther can I upgrade the operating system?

The IMAC was upgraded by a local computer service store because we have dial up. The person who did the upgrade said I couldn't upgrade any further because the IMAC would run to slow. Here is what I have now.
Model Name: iMac
Model Identifier: iMac7,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 4 MB
Memory: 4 GB
Bus Speed: 800 MHz
Boot ROM Version: IM71.007A.B03
SMC Version (system): 1.20f4
Serial Number (system): W87482Y9X88
Hardware UUID: 00000000-0000-1000-8000-001B63BE8AEA
Any thoughts on realistic upgrade potential? I need to do something as my current Safari version (5.1.10) is not working properly on some important web sites.
Thanks!

HT5654 I just upgraded to the latest operating system, but it is hung up, no matter how many times I page through the options and hit agree it won't go past the agree/disagree page.

As the title says, my iTunes just updated. So it asked to update my iPhone operating system. I'm logged in but no matter how many pages I link through or page through it won't accept "agree" and move on. Now I can't do anything with the phone.

It randomly decided to start working after three hours, nevermind.

I have lost iPhoto , was advised if I updated to the newest operating system Maverick that iPhoto would reload but it hasn't worked, any ideas how I can retrieve it without laying?

any idea iron suggestions please?

This screenshot shows which previous versions of iPhoto are compatible with Mavericks. It also indicates which versions qualify for a free upgrade to iPhoto 9.5.1 and which require a purchase:
Note 1: every day more users are reporting problems with iPhoto 8.1.2 so I've included it in the non compatible category.
Note 2: If your previous version of iPhoto was iPhoto 7 (08) or earlier you'll need to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 application on the library before opening it with iPhoto 9.5.1.
If you don't have a backup of your hard drive from before you upgraded to Mavericks where you can restore the previous version of iPhoto (if it's compatible with Mavericks) you'll need to either use the disks that came with the Mac (if there were any) or an iLife 11 disk or purchse from the App Store.

I recently updated my 5th gen ipod touch to the newest operating system release. Since then, I can no longer play back voice recordings I have stored or since recorded in my Voice Memo app. How can I access my stored recordings?

A few days ago, I updated the OS. Since then, I have been unable to access saved recordings on my Voice Memo app. Additionally, recordings I have made since then have been made unavailable to me as well. All of the recordings are listed, but will not play when I select the play option, nor will the app allow me to edit them if I wanted to change their names, or something. There is nothing noticably wrong with the touch screen itself, meaning, there are no dead spots that do not respond to touch. I cannot figure out why the memos will not play.
Is this a glitch with the new update? If so, how do I revert back to the OS setting I had prior? Preferrably, I would like to find a fix for this situation in the condition my device is now without having to adjust the OS settings.

Can you record and play new VMs?
Can you sync them to your computer?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from a back that was made then the VM played back. See:
iOS: How to back up

TS3694 Why is the IPAD not updating to the new Operating System. I get this 3014 error all the time. Help please?

I just updating to the new operating system. My Ipad is having problems updating to the new operatinng system IO6 I think. Anyways I keep getting this 3014 error. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

I am having the same problem. I think I saw something about VPN and not being able to communicate with Apple web site. Do you have your protected company email on your phone?

I just downloaded the new operating system and cannot get angry birds friends from Facebook to load. Any suggestions here?

I just downloaded the latest operating system to my IPad and now cannot access Angry Birds Friends from Facebook. Any solutions?

Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

I have just bought an iPad mini and to transfer my contacts,music etc via iTunes on my PC, the PC crashes - is this because of the different operating systems?

Can anyone please help

Hi Pa23from Argyllshire,
This error: I have just bought an iPad mini and to transfer my contacts, music etc via iTunes on my PC, the PC crashes should not occur.
The best guess is this crash is caused due to an issue with the PC.
Make sure your iPad is updated to the latest operating system: iOS 7.0.4 and make sure iTunes is updated to iTunes 11.
iTunes 11 is optimised for iOS 7, so if you have an iOS 7 device and non iTunes 11 computer, life would be hard.
Try to update iTunes to 11.1.3 from: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Even try uninstalling iTunes and then re-installing. iTunes will not lose any of your iTunes songs when your un-install it as iTunes stores every media item in a folder found in (or around): C:\Users\NAME\Music\iTunes
Obviously iTunes and iDevices work best using Mac iTunes however; iTunes 11 and iOS 7 iPad Mini should work fine.
In summary possible solutions:
1.       Update iPad Mini to iOS 7 or better (iOS 7.0.4)
2.       Update iTunes to iTunes 11.1.3
3.       Restart both PC and iPad
4.       Uninstall iTunes from PC
Many Thanks, Happy New Year and I look forward to hearing from you regarding this crash!

5 days ago I bought a 13" mac book air from an apple store. It does NOT have Maverick on it! I paid full price for it but since it has the old operating system-.I kind of feel like I purchased a "clearance" item but payed full price! any advice?

5 days ago I bought a 13" MacBook Air from an apple store. It does not have Maverick on it! I paid full price for it, but since it has the old operating system I kind of feel like I bought a "clearance" item but payed full price for it! Does anyone have any advice, wisdom etc. This is my first Mac and I'm really bummed that it's not the latest and greatest. I know I can download maverick for free.....but are there other differences? Maybe something else that I thought I was getting but didn't? Thanks.

There is no difference, you didnt get "shorted" Mavericks is a FREE DOWNLOAD
Open the APP store and download Mavericks.
You didnt buy a "clearance" item, you just got an Air that was there at the shop before Mavericks was released.
There is no difference other than a 40 min. download.

I currently have the Mac OS X v10.5.8 and want to get the new operating system but I don't know how to do it. I don't have the Mac App Store and can't get it because of my version. What do I do?

I currently have the Mac OS X v10.5.8 and want to get the new operating system but I don't know how to do it. I don't have the Mac App Store and can't get it because of my version. What do I do?

The Early 2006 model 1,1 Core Duo can only run a maximum of 10.6 Snow Leopard. The models Late 2006 Core 2 Duos 2,1 through Early 2008 4,1 can only run a maximum of 10.7 Lion. The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody through the Mid 2010 White Unibody model 7,1 can run 10.8 Mountain Lion.
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. When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.
The Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD should still be available from Apple for $20. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775 to purchase it. It may still be in the Legacy Products list.
If they no longer have any in stock you will have to buy it from eBay or Apple resellers that still have stock. But you will have to pay a premium since the DVDs are no longer being made. Snow Leopard DVDs are already up to $100 on Amazon.
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=10.6+snow+leopard&_sacat=0&_odkw=mac+os+10.6 &_osacat=0
Once you are at 10.6.8 Lion is still available from Apple. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store. The price is still $29. You must have at least a model 2,1 MacBook.
Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

I was told at the Apple store that Apple was now offering Pages, numbers and keynote free with the Mavericks download. I noticed that I got the free when I downloaded the newest operating system on my iPad. True? And if so, how do you do it?
