Jolly Giant gave good advice re. ITunes and unable to download the latest version on my older Mac Mini.  I downloaded ITunes 9.2 as he suggested but came to a standstill at the place where we "agree" with terms. Couldn't open  this without Iwork which I don't have.  Help!  Carolyn

Hello, no way you should need iWork to "Agree"!?
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
And if you're really at 10.4.2, then get this and apply it...
The combo update for PowerPC-based Macs...

  • Anyone know when Apple will bring out a patch to fix the volume problem you get on mac mini after downloading OS 10.8.5

    Anyone know when Apple will bring out a patch to fix the volume problem you get on mac mini after downloading OS 10.8.5?

    Only Apple knows the answer to whether or not there is a verified problem and if so when will a fix be released.  As is their custom, Apple does not talk about these things and the rules of these communities prohibit speculation about future udates or upgrades. It is probably safe to say if a fix is deemed necessary it will be called OS X 10.8.6.

  • What's the best system upgrade for 'older' Mac Mini?

    My MacMini is about five years old:
    Model Name:    Mac mini
    Model Identifier:    Macmini4,1
    Processor Name:    Intel Core 2 Duo
    Processor Speed:    2.4 GHz
    Number Of Processors:    1
    Total Number Of Cores:    2
    L2 Cache:    3 MB
    Memory:    2 GB
    Bus Speed:    1.07 GHz
    Boot ROM Version:    MM41.0042.B00
    SMC Version (system):    1.65f2
    This mini is still running  System 10.6.8, with the 'latest' version of Safari being version 5.1.10.
    Lately, Safari fails to perform certain features correctly on certain websites, and I have to switch to Firefox to make the websites work.
    Is it time for a system upgrade, so I can run a newer version of Safari?  If so, which newer OSX system version would be the best for me to upgrade to?

    A few other things to consider if you want to upgrade your OS.
    If you are using any apps that are still PowerPC apps, they will not run on
    any newer Mac OS.  So you will need to find replacements ($$$$).
    Also, in terms of apps, you need to make sure the apps you are currently
    using are compatible with the newer MacOS.  You may need to upgrade ($$$$)
    or find alternatives.
    Also, you will need to make sure any external hardware that you use with
    your Mac is also compatible with the newer MacOS.  You may simply need to
    update drivers or the hardware may no longer be supported ($$$$).
    So, upgrading your MacOS could end up costing more than just adding RAM!!!

  • Error 7 (Windows error1114) have uninstalled iTunes and am having problems reinstalling latest version

    When trying to download latest version of iTunes, it failed to down load and I got an error message which read
    Runtime Error!
    Program: C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.exc
    R6034
    An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.  Please contact the applications support team for more information.
    iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes.  Error 7 (Windows error 1114)
    Tried reinstall, repair as have done this before this did not work, so I uninstalled iTunes then downloaded latest version only to have this not work either.
    I had my ipod attached at the time as I was charging it anf now find I can't turn it off?
    What is going on with this.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • How is it possible to upgrade to the latest Version of Elements coming from Elements 10 downloaded in the Mac App Store?

    Hi,
    two years ago I bought PSE10 in the Mac App Store. Is it possible to upgrade to PSE12 or do I have to buy the new Version in the App Store again?
    Thank you and kind regards
    Thomas

    You can often find the full products on-line cheaper than the upgrade prices from Adobe. For example PSE12 is $69 from Amazon and the combo PSE12+PRE12 is $115. I would suggest shopping around to get the cheapest deal. Also if you buy the boxed product it will be multi-platform and can be used on both Windows and Mac. The download versions tend to be platform specific.

  • Is 31.0 the latest version for Firefox for mac?

    On my Mac, I click on Firefox and then About Firefox and find that I am running Firefox 31.0.
    There is no indication whether this is last version or not.
    Previously, I got some indication that I was not running the current version.
    And I got a pop up box which showed that the computer was trying to connect to the Firefox
    facility - I can 't remember the exact name - which would have - I believe - started the update
    process.
    This pop up box ran for sometime and didn't seem to complete before it disappeared unretrievably
    from the screen after I took some extraneous computer action.
    So... now I am wondering:
    Do I have the latest Firefox installation or not?

    Thanks Tyler for your helpful response.
    I now have the current 37.0.1 version of Firefox.
    What was happening - before - is that my computer was hanging at the step
    of "connecting to the update server".
    Even when I clicked on your link and then closed Firefox as I was directed.
    What I had to do... and what worked... was not just closing Firefox but restarting my computer.
    Thanks once again.
