  • How do I reinstall mac os 10.7, if I don't have a backup?

    I had to reinstall mac os 10.6 to my macbook, which was running mac os 10.7 before, coz, all of a sudden,  it could not be booted. Now I would like to know, how I can reinstall mac os 10.7. which I bought in the app store. It doesn't work from my backup medium. Do I have to buy it again on a DVD?

    The Mac App Store was released with 10.6.6. It is most certainly on 10.6.8.
    The Mac App Store has nothing to do with iTunes. You access the Mac App Store from the Apple menu:
    You don't need an install disk inserted for the Recovery HD or Internet Recovery.
    If your Mac came with Snow Leopard installed, then it likely doesn't have internet recovery. There were EFI firmware updates that enabled the recent ones to have internet recovery. So, if that is working (ie you get to the internet recovery screen holding down cmd-R), but your wireless password doesn't work, then disable you wireless password for the moment.
    Or, is it your AppleID password that doesn't work?

  • How do I reinstall mac OSX 10.6.4?

    how do I reinstall mac OSX 10.6.4?

    Reinstall 10.6.4? exactly?
    Only if you have 10.6.4 on machine specific disks that came with your computer (or you can call Apple for the disks)
    However if you Software Update, Apple will bring your machine up to 10.6.8 automatically, with all the security and bug fixes. No choice to stop at 10.6.4 exactly.
    10.6 is the Snow Leoaprd operating system, 10.6.3 or 10.6.4 or 10.6.8 is the updates to 10.6 that also occur when you run Software Update under the Apple menu.
    So if your machine originally came with 10.5.x something and you upgraded via the 10.6.3 white retail disk, if you Software Update, you can't get to 10.6.4, it will just bring you to 10.6.8.
    So if you want to reinstall 10.6.4 specifically, it would have to be the machine specific disks if your Mac orignally came with 10.6.4, else you will be force upgraded to 10.6.8 from any 10.6 version.
    Now there are two ways to resinstall OS X, one way is to write say 10.6.8 over with 10.6.3 or 10.6.4 via the disks, and only 10.6 is overwritten, not your third party programs (most) and not your files. However you will need to Software Update, because your Apple related support files have been changed.
    See #8 Reinstall Just OS X for that then Software Update to 10.6.8
    Step by Step to fix your Mac
    Another method is to wipe the entire drive or boot partition, then install 10.6 from the disk, then you don't have too Software update to 10.6.8 to get all the bug/security fixes if you don't want too.
    I don't know what you want exactly, but I'll give you the links.

  • How much does reinstalling Mac 10.4.11 cost at the Apple Store?

    My iBook freezes at startup. No matter how many online tutorials I have used, it just will not work. How much does reinstalling Mac 10.4.11 cost at the Apple Store in the Danbury Fair Mall?

    If you already have the Tiger re-installation media, dont pay to have it installed. There are many excellent sources on the web  that have tutorials that you could print out and have handy, or you could view the tutorials on another computer nearby. Also many cities and towns have local computer clubs that meet up to exchange ideas and chat, some specifically apple. I would ask around. Many of these clubs are free, and the members help each other at no charge
    If you dont own a Copy of Tiger, Craiglist or eBay might be your best bet. Just dont overpay. People like to charge exhorbitant amounts of money for older copies of OS X.

  • I am running 10.7.5 on an imac and I want to upgrade to Yosemite but I have no app store on my computer. Is there a way I can get the app store on my imac?

    I am running 10.7.5 on an imac and I want to upgrade to Yosemite but I have no app store on my computer. Is there a way I can get the app store on my imac?

    If you don't have it then you will have to reinstall Lion:
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks or Yosemite without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, or Yosemite
    OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                     if possible because it isthree times faster than wireless.
    Then you can download and install Yosemite if your computer meets the system requirements:
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
        OS X Mavericks/Yosemite - System Requirements
          Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
             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?

  • TS3276 I just upgraded to 10.8.2 and Mail is having a problem. It won't remember my password for getting mail; but it does remember the password for sending mail, i.e., smtp. Does anyone know of a fix?

    I just upgraded to 10.8.2 and Mail is having a problem. It won't remember my password for getting mail; but it does remember the password for sending mail, i.e., smtp. Does anyone know of a fix?

    The solution surprised even me, and we've been using Macs since 1984 (still have an original 128K).
    I contacted Apple support, and because we had just upgraded yesterday, clicked on the "exception" button as opposed to paying the $19.99 one-time support fee. An Apple tech called and the problem was solved in two minutes.
    Somehow during the installation of OS 10.8.2 (over 10.6.x) the key chain data for my email ISP login password got corrupted. The solution was to delete both the POP mail and SMTP entries in my keychain.
    Back to Mail, it asked for the POP password, I entered it and bingo, mail got busy downloading. Interestingly, the password was also entered into the SMTP panel.
    So, that's it. Thanks for you response, Mr. Hoffman, and regards.

    Since you have to consciously click and enter a password, the normal terms on the store are all sales are final.
    All you can do is go to the support link above, follow to the Express Lane support for the iTunes store and plead your case for a refund.  Just don't get your expections too high though.

  • How do I reinstall mac os x 10.5.8 without a full install dvd?

    I am needing to reinstall Mac OSX 10.5.8 but don't have the original disk the macbook came with. I have tried using a Snow Leopard full install DVD but I keep getting the error message of "OS X cannot be install on this macbook" (paraphrased). I have tried resetting the PRAM and NVRAM but still nothing.
    Any one know how to do this?

    Using a Snow Leopard install package will not re-install Leopard.
    If you tried using a Snow Leopard install package to install Snow Leopard that shipped with a new Mac purchase, the OS X install package that ships with a new Mac purchase is model specific.
    Contact Apple or AppleCare to request a replacement Leopard install package that shipped with your Mac when new.

    I have MacBook Pro, i7
    have a nice day
    Suleyman

    Infact, I didn't deleted any partition, I created a new partition, in windows, using Computer Manager, then I formated this new partition, after that, it seems that windows changed the other partitions !!
    I boot my MacBookPro using a snow leopard Mac DVD, and click on Disk Utility.
    There is 3 partitions:
    Disk0S1 440 GB
    Disk0S2 60GB
    Disk0S3 2MB !!
    partition type for three of them is Wondows_LDM, not Mounted, and no more info about other parameteres.
    When I click on repair disk, or verify disk, it says: "reparing volume failed: Unrecognized file system"
    Note: when I purchased my macbook pro A1278, The Original osx was Lion.

  • I deleted the app store app - how do i reinstall it

    I have a 2006 MBP. I deleted the app store a while back (it was part of update 10.6.6). I have since updated my OS. When I try to download 10.6.6 again I am not allowed to do so because I am using a more recent version. I'd like to find a way to get the app store re-installed on my computer. Any ideas?

    go to...

    and you should be able to re-download the application

  • HT4061 my ipad automatically shut down and now i lost al savings and in-app purchases the battery was on 50% what happened and can i get my purchases back

    my ipad automatically shut down and now i lost al savings and in-app purchases the battery was on 50% what happened and can i get my purchases back

    Hi there,
    This seems very frustrating. An iPad can shut down randomally for many reasons, just like a computer can crash. If it begins to happen regularly, then do contact Apple, but there are no signs that your iPad is malfunctioning from just one shut down like this.
    But, you should be able to get all your in-app purchases back. In some apps, there is a 'restore purchases' button, which will download all the purchases you made for free.
    In some cases, you can tap to make the purchase again, and it will be downloaded at no charge, however this does not happen with consumable items such as coins and credits.
    I reccomend contacting iTunes Store Support at the link below, they will take a closer look at your purchases and give you further steps on redeeming them. They may also refund you if they have been lost.
    iTunes Store Support
    You can also contact the developer of the app, and report the crash and missing purchases. If you tell me the app, I'll give you the relevent contact in the developers.
    Other than that, sorry for the problems, and have a great day,
    Nathan
