My MacBookPro uses. OSX 10.6.8. When upgrading to Maverick, what problems can I encounter?

I have been using Snow Leopard for years.  Now I feel the need to install Maverick.  What are the procedures and problems I may confront?
Thank you.

Are you sure your model can be upgraded to Mavericks?
Upgrading to Mavericks
You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Mavericks
To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks 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.
      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?

    I was using osx 10.5.8 and upgraded to mavericks 10.9.4,after that ..when restoring all my data from time machine ,the new mavericks os was replaced by the old OS 10.5.8 ...any solution to get back to the upgraded mavericks OS????

    Hi, how did you get MavX from 10.5.8, since it requires 10.6.8 to get MavX from Apple's App Store?

  • I bought a used computer and I am currently upgrading to Mavericks.  How can I erase the current password from the seller?

    I just bought a used computer and i am currently updating this computer to Mavericks upgrade for free.  How can I wipe it clean, and also how can I reset the password from the sellers password?

    You really have to start with the MBP as it came out of the box.  Read these directions;

    You then will have to create your own password and account.

  • Using Logic Express 9.1.8 - Upgraded to Mavericks and now can't open Logic Express. Why please?

    As soon as I try and open the LE application the icon starts bouncing up and down in the bottom tray and that's it. There is no more. I have to right click and force quit.
    Became fed up and dragged it to the trash with the intention of reinstalling form original Logic Expres 9.0.0 disc. Couldn't install though as the installer crashes.
    Don't know if this because of the "upgrade" to Mavericks but it a real coincidence.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks

    Well, the first thing I would have done is launch Disk Utility and run Repair Disk Permissions. It sounds like your problem may have been a permissions error and this may have resolved it. If that didn't help I would have next gone to my user>Libary>Preferences folder and deleted "com.apple.logic.express.plist."
    Next step would have been to reboot the computer in Safe Mode or create a new user account to see if LE9 would launch.
    Even though you trashed LE9 I would still suggest repairing permissions at this point. Also, do a Spotlight search for Logic Express to find any remaining LE files that you might want to delete . . . primarily preference files like the .plist mentioned above. Now restart your computer and try running the installer again.
    Just an FYI, LE9 will indeed work in Mavericks. I used it briefly until I decided to get rid of Mavericks and go back to 10.8.5.

    Try resetting your phone, hold the home and sleep/wake button down until the apple symbol comes up, then release. If that doesnt work, you may have damaged your phone and need to take it to an apple genius bar.

  • I am freeing up some space and am using osx lion, but i have 12gb of back ups, how can i delete these and what are they?

    I am freeing up some space and am using osx lion, but i have 12gb of back ups, how can i delete these and what are they?

    Gotcha.
    Back-ups are what they are: a safety copy. If you feel you don't need them, you can trash them. They could be of a previous System if you upgraded, or something else. You wont get the full picture from looking at system profiler.
    You may want to look into getting an external drive and offloading some stuff to it.

  • Will a DIY fusion drive work when upgraded to Mavericks?

    Mavericks was exciting for all it's power, but I have noticed that a ton of pp are experiencing problems with their home-brew fusion drives when upgraded to Mavericks, is that true? And if it is, is there any fix?
    Thanks!

    The link is for installing 10.9 on a DIY fusiondrive (though explained for a DP). It works just fine on the final release. I just had it done and is as smooth as whistle.....

  • What problems will I encounter when I upgrade to leopard?

    Hi,
    I'm going to purchase a Leopard upgrade for my MacBook Pro, but i've read alot of problems that users are encountering on this forum (Saying that, I've been on the MacBook Pro forum and there's alot of posts concerning issues/problems with this Laptop, but I have not ever had any).
    So is there any initial problems that I WILL encounter when upgrading my MacBook Pro 1GB 2.16GHz Intel Duo Core from 10.4.11 to 10.5.1?
    Regards,

    I'm still awaiting delivery of OSX Leopard, but I think what I might do once it arrives is to just upgrade with no backup of my current 10.4.11 on an external Hard Drive. What could possibly go wrong? nothing really has with any apple product i've bought so far.
    That's just plain foolish. Never ever upgrade without a backup. We get "this operating system ate my hard drive posts" here all the time. Why? Not because the operating system is flawed, but because people don't take proper precautions. No operating system can handle:
    1. Corrupt system data files.
    2. Third party drivers and firmware that aren't updated.
    3. Lack of disc space.
    4. Directory damage.
    5. RAM that hasn't been completely tested.
    With every update, a different angle on the problems above appears to happen, because each update accesses data files slightly differently, whether to match newer specs for information, or to better manage memory for other types of applications which need better memory management. Unfortunately unless you are using a vanilla system, which most people aren't, your chances of success diminish with each new addon you put in. See my upgrade FAQ*:
    http://www.macmaps.com/upgradefaq.html
    And NEVER EVER upgrade without at least two backups.

  • Files that used to be visible are now hidden in Mavericks. How can I change the setting to view the same files as before? I do not need the hidden files that are typically invisible.

    Files that used to be visible are now hidden in Mavericks 10.9.1. How can I change the setting to view the same files as before? I do not need the hidden files that are typically invisible.
    I am having trouble locating such files as PDF's INDD, AI etc. When I view all hidden files and try to open it in the program..it looks like it is really not on the drive. Has anyone come across a solution?

    You may need to rebuild permissions on your user account. To do this,boot to your Recovery partition (holding down the Command and R keys while booting) and open Terminal from the Utilities menu. In Terminal, type:  ‘resetpassword’ (without the ’s), hit return, and select the admin user. You are not going to reset your password. Click on the icon for your Macs hard drive at the top. From the drop down below it select the user account which is having issues. At the bottom of the window, you'll see an area labeled Restore Home Directory Permissions and ACLs. Click the reset button there. The process takes a few minutes. When complete, restart.

    How to manage a failed OS X Mavericks installation | MacFixIt - CNET Reviews.
    Try these in order:
    1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
        b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
         Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
         COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities 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.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    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 click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Buffer overflow when upgrading to Mavericks from Snow Leopard

    I haven't been able to install the upgrade to Mavericks and am unsure of what is wrong on my Intel Core Duo iMac. I recently upgraded to 4 gig memory.
    This is the section of the error log I think is pertinent.

    Ideas??

    Normally what happens is that each of the software vendors are testing their products on Lion already.  If they find some problem running under Lion they have the time make the fixes before Lion goes to the public. 
    You can check the vendor sites to see if they have updates for Lion when the public release is closer.  You'll probably find that most software is ok as is.
    Upgrades will leave your software and data intact.

  • TS3977 Issue with extended display using Displaylink USB to DVI since upgrading to Mavericks.

    I have an issue now since upgrading to Mavericks with my extended display monitor using a displaylink DVI to USB adapter. After awhile, the monitor goes blank. I can unplug the connection from the USB port and plug it back in and the display comes back, only to go out again a short time later.
    It worked fine for months prior to the upgrade.
    Apple say it's Dispalylink's problem and Displaylink says it's Apple's problem. Anyone else having this or a similar isssue?

    Someone opened a bug report with Apple in another thread - about a different product that used DisplayLink drivers, and Apple blamed the vendor.
    I have many issues too. Crashing Window Manager, and once it crashed my Mac.
    I also have many issues... one is corrupt display. The icons are missing in the menubar on my laptop, and squished together on my external monitor:
    They are there if I mouse over, but invisible.
    I can't click on the squished ones, they are to close.
