Need upgrade from 10.4.2 - 10.4.5?

I just got my new PBG4 15" 1.67ghz. And I found its OS x version is 10.4.2. and the latest one of OS X is 10.4.5, as I know.
Before set up everything, and install applications, do I better upgrade this OS 10.4.2 to 10.4.5?
I read somewhere 10.4.3 has some bugs(if I read correctly) and how about 10.4.5?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

The bugs with any particular operating system are usually to do with poorly programmed applications being installed on it or poorly programmed drivers for third party devices. This is why I suggest when upgrading to follow this procedure so you don't run into problems:

I've run every release of Mac OS X since beta, and none can I say were significantly buggy.

  • HT204053 Can't get rid of old ID from previous owner when need upgrades from APP Store?

    My son set up his acct when he download most of the APP Store, few months later I downloads few more in his name till his ID doesn't work, so I decide to change into my name in acct, however when the APP show need upgrade those games etc.. Still automatic to his name . I seem can not get it to change to my name. Does that mean I have to download ITune Store reprogramming ?

    You cannot change the iTunes store account from his to yours and continue to use the purchases made from his account. I'm not quite sure why his account no longer works, there is no reason why it shouldn't.

  • Help needed upgrading from Windows 8 to XP for Conexant Sound Driver

    I upgraded from Windows 8 to XP and got everything else working except for the sound. I have scoured the internet and tried many versions of drivers from windows 7 ones to XP ones with no success. I tried older driver´s version as well.  After a reboot there is no sound device loaded in the control panel for sound. I have a C845D-SP4327SL  model laptop. Does anyone have any process to make this work that is proven? Thanks

    hi. if you want to that your sound device was in control panel after a reboot , here is only one solution for that, all you have to do is upgrade first  hdaudio bus controler. Driver must be copied first from computer with Vista os. if your xp is 32bit you have to copy this driver from any Vista x32 if  your xp is 64 bit then Vista must be x64 as well.  driver for forced upgrade through device menager you will find in any vista os  Windows--> System32-->DriverStore-->FileRepository-->hdaudbus​.inf9689af2f
    once copied that file from any computer equiped with Windows Vista , copy it on your desktop, next step go to the device menager  and find in system device tab 2 entries UUA High definition audio and update both by forced update. You have to point exactly where is located your driver copied from vista. after this update your sound device will be in the control panel and device manager always and permanent.
    I had the same problem with my xp instaled on satelite p500 and only this solution solved my problem with disappearing sound device after reboot.
    ps. if this solution help you please tell us about it.

  • Help needed upgrading from 4.1 to 6.2 for transfer to new Pre

    I have a Sony Clie PEG-SJ22 that I sync on two computers using Palm Desktop 4.1.0 on each.  The version on the computer in front of me lives in D:\Program Files\Sony Handheld.  I just bought a Palm Pre and learned that in order to sync my data to it, I would have to first upgrade to Palm Desktop 6.2.  I downloaded the 6.2 installation file and ran it.  It recognized that Palm Desktop was already installed and prompted me to click "Yes" to upgrade it which I did.  However the installation froze with the progress bar about 3/4 of the way through.  I End-Tasked the installation, but now I can't run either the new version or the old one.  (In fact the new version seems to have disappeared from \Program Files.)  When I try to run the old version I get error messages about missing dll files.  Before I try re-installing (or anything else) what should I do to make this go properly?  Is there a problem because my old version of Palm Desktop was a Sony-Clie-branded version?  Or is it something else?
    Thanks

    Thanks WyreNut for your quick reply,
    I'm able to restore my system prior to trying to installing the update so that I don't lose anything with my current Desktop 4.2. I might be in a catch-22 as that, if I do a clean uninstall of v4.1 and install the v6.2, will I be able to hotsync my Sony Clie TH55 since it's not a Palm product but uses the Palm Desktop to sync???
    Any other ideas will be appreciated...
    Thanks
    I did a search of the Forum for "6.2 and Clie" and found several threads.  None were very promising.

  • Do I need upgrade db from 9.2.0.8.0 to 9.2.0.8.1 when applying CPUOct2008?

    I am trying to apply 2008 October CPU to my 9.2.0.8.0 database using opatch. I got the following error
    MISSING_COMPONENT : oracle.rsf.rdbms_rsf, 9.2.0.8.1
    SKIPPING_COMPONENT=oracle.rdbms,9.2.0.8.1
    SKIPPING_COMPONENT=oracle.options.ano.sns,9.2.0.8.0
    SKIPPING_COMPONENT=oracle.rdbms.lbac,9.2.0.8.1
    SKIPPING_COMPONENT=oracle.options.olap.cwmlite,9.2.0.8.0
    It seems that the opatch is looking for the database version of 9.2.0.8.1. But I can not find a patch to upgrade from 9.2.0.8.0 to 9.2.0.8.1.
    Or I need a newer version of opatch?

    Hi autumn,
    as Satish already mentioned you inventory isn't most likely up to date. This can caused for instance by a patch set which didn't get applied correctly (for instance space issues on the disk drive where the OUI inventory is located). Please do an "opatch lsinventory -detail" to check whether your RDBMS and RSFs are 9.2.0.8. If the output shows something like:
    PRODUCT NAME VERSION
    ============ =======
    Oracle9i Database 9.2.0.1.0
    RDBMS Required Support Files 9.2.0.1.0
    then you may apply 9.2.0.8 again and afterwards apply the CPU with opatch. Please don't forget that a valid backup will be your database's insurance ;-)
    Kind regards

  • If i want to use Icloud i HAVE to upgrade from OSX 10.6 to OSX 10.7 and it doesn't seem to work on my mac book. I thought i had managed then it said i needed 10.7 to be able to upgrade to 10.7??? Who can help? In app store i can only upgrade to M.LION?

    Dear Community members,
    the frustration is that Apple decide to go from Mobile me to Icloud, forcing clients to have an upgrade from 10.6 to 10.7, i do this on my iMAc but the agenda and contacts don't get synchronised within Icloud. It only works on iphone and ipad but my IMAC doesn't synchronise although i now have to correct software.
    I also needed to upgrade my mac book pro but by that time mountain lion was launched, i can now no longer find in App store how to upgrade 10.6 to 10.7 since Apple wants to promote Mountain lion. I then decided to upgrade my MAcbook pro to Mountain Lion but ididn't go through, process was each time interupted.
    So searching the internet i found a link to upgrtade to 10.7 and after 40 min of downloading the system said that i requiered 10.7 in order to be able to install 10.7.
    Hello IKafka?
    Can someone help me, since this has taken me now days and days and with zero result, i have to manually input my appointements and contacts twice since the system doesn't recognise. and I bet that afterwards i will need to invest more time to un-double all the data...
    Günther DAuwen

    If you purchased Lion for your iMac, just log into the Mac App Store from your MacBook using the Apple ID under which you purchased Lion and go to the Purchases page. You will be able to download and install Lion there. 
    searching the internet i found a link to upgrtade to 10.7
    The only place you get get Lion is from the Mac App Store. If you found some other site, that was an illegal copy and almost certainly tied to someone else's Apple ID and hence unusable by you. If the link was just to the Mac App Store, see above.
    As to the problem with synchronization to iCloud, that's not a 10.6 question, so I'd suggest you take up that specific issue in either the Lion or iCloud forums, providing full details, and someone there can probably help you sort things out.
    Regards.

  • I have a hdd from late 2009 that I upgraded from leopard to snow leopard to lion to mountain lion.  I want to upgrade the hdd to ssd.  Do I need to buy a new copy of mountain lion to install on the ssd?  If not, then what is the procedure to transfer?

    I have a hdd from a late 2009 mbp.  I upgraded from leopard to snow leopard to lion to mountain lion.  Now I want to upgrade to a ssd.  Do I need to purchase a new copy of mountain lion to go on my new ssd? If I don't, then what is the procedure to transfer mountain lion with my 4 user accounts onto the new ssd from the hdd?
    I'm confused on if I can use the recovery hd on a thumb drive to install mountain lion on my ssd.  Will it be pheasible with so many OS X upgrades?  And then how do I get my user accounts onto the ssd from the hdd.  Do I use migration assistant?  Do I need to make a time machine backup first?  Should I use something called Carbon Clone or something like that?
    Thanks for reading

    If you have a cable that connects and external HDD to the MBP, it will do.  If it is something like this, an  enclosure will not be needed for the swap:
    An enclosure allows you to use your old HDD for storage or backup purposes.  The cable will not. 
    Here are instructions as to how the swap can be performed using DISK UTITY.  Substitute You cable for the enclosure in same:
    INSTALLING A NEW HDD IN A MBP
    1. Make certain that you have backed up all of your important data.
    2. You will need a HDD enclosure.  One with a USB connection will do.  A 9 pin Firewire is better.
    3. Install your new drive in the enclosure and connect it to your MBP.
    4. Open DISK UTILITY>ERASE.  From the left hand column drag the new drive into the 'Name' field.  Make sure that the format is 'Mac OS Extended (Journaled)'.  Click on the 'Erase' button.
    5. Click on the 'Restore' button (on top).  Drag the old drive into the 'Source' field and the new drive into the 'Destination'  field.  Click on the 'Restore' button on the bottom right hand corner.
      Depending upon the amount of data you are transferring, this may take a couple hours or more.  A Firewire will speed up the transfer.  This will result in both drives having identical information on them.
    6. After the data transfer has completed, you may swap the drives.  Start the MBP and you have finished the installation.  The initial boot may take a bit longer than you are accustomed to, but that is normal.
    7. When you are satisfied that the new hard drive if functioning properly, you can erase the old drive and use it for any needs that you may have.
    If there is any confusion on your part, post back.
    Ciao.

  • I upgraded my iBook G4 from 384MBytes to 640Mbytes and upgraded from Tiger to Leopard. After a few weeks the HDD failed. New Leopard install reports: "insufficient memory". I need Tiger install disks so I can install

    I upgraded my iBook G4 from 384MBytes to 640Mbytes and upgraded from Tiger to Leopard.
    After a few weeks the HDD failed. I bought a new disk, installed it and trued to install Leopard, but the  install fails reporting "insufficient memory".
    I assume the installation requires more memory than the OS actually needs to be able to run.
    I need Tiger install CD/DVD so I can install Tiger first and then upgrade to Leopard.

    Call Apple Customer Support 1-800-767-2775, provide the Serial Number and specifications of the Mac, and for a reasonable fee, they will supply a replacement set of system discs (if available).
    The discs will be for the original version of the OS that was pre-installed when the Mac was manufactured.
    You need much more RAM than that.

  • I have recently upgraded from my iphone 5 to a new phone. My iphone 5 's touch screen does not work anymore. I need to backup my phone, but I can't do it on itunes without my password. Everything besides screen is ok. Is there a way around it? :(

    I have recently upgraded from my iphone 5 to a new phone. My iphone 5 's touch screen does not work anymore. I need to backup my phone, but I can't do it on itunes without my password. Everything besides the screen is completely fine-the screen will not recognize my finger anymore. I am not trying to fix the phone, but I need to have my contacts. The pictures have already synced, but I need my password to do a full backup. Unfortunately, I can't type in my password. Is there any way around it? If I take my phone to the apple store, will they be able to help me? I am not willing to replace the screen just to do this, however, so that is out of the question. 

    Someone else may have a workaround, but, as far as I know, if you cannot interact with the screen on the iPhone, there is no way to unlock it so you can get to your contacts.
    Were you saving them to iCloud by chance? If so, you can restore them to your new phone.

  • Upgrading From XP - What you need to know

    Hi,
    As many of you are aware, support for Windows XP ends on April 8th 2014.
    What does it mean?
    End of support means that Microsoft will no longer issue Windows Updates for XP to maintain the security and integrity of the Operating System.
    Do I Need to Upgrade?
    If you are currently using Windows XP for every day activity then it is recommended to upgrade to a supported version of Windows to ensure you are receiving important security updates for your operating system.
    In addition to updates, you may also experience compatibility issues with new hardware such as a new printer, document scanner, webcam etc. Most vendors will also move away from writing XP compatible drivers.
    I subscribe to security and antivirus software, Do I need to upgrade Windows?
    In short, Yes. While these antivirus and security packages do a good job in most cases, they do not unfortunately provide the relevant necessary security updates to maintain the integrity of the operating system. In fact most antivirus packages are reliant
    on the operating system updates to maintain security.
    Must I Upgrade To Windows 8?
    This is a personal choice. Windows 8 is the latest Microsoft operating system, you can also upgrade to any supported operating system such as Windows Vista, Windows 7 or indeed Windows 8. The only obstacle is to find a vendor that still sells licensing for
    the older products.
    How can I check If My Computer Is Ready For Windows 8
    Windows Upgrade Assistant will assist you to check your computers compatibility with Windows 8
    Here is a summary of the system requirements:
    Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster
    RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) (32-bit) or 2 GB (64-bit)
    Free hard drive space: 16 GB (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)
    Graphics card: Microsoft DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM drive
    I don't know if my computer is 32bit or 64bit
    You will be glad to know that Windows 8 comes with both 32 bit and 64 bit versions.
    To see whether a PC running Windows XP is capable of running a 64-bit version of Windows, do the following:
    Click Start.
    Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
    If "x64 Edition" is listed under System, your processor is capable of running a 64-bit version of Windows.
    If "x86 Edition" is listed then its a 32bit installation
    Where can I get Windows 8?
    Your local computer store should be able to assist you with a copy. Windows 8.1 is the current version.
    You can also use the
    Microsoft compare and decide website to determine which version you require and select the buy now option for online purchase.
    How Do I Install Windows 8?
    It is important to note that upgrading from XP to Windows 8 will not retain your files. You should back up your files prior to upgrading either by using an external hard drive, or using
    Sky Drive which is Free
    Microsoft's Put Together An Upgrade Procedure From XP/Visa to Windows 8
    It is also important to note that installing from DVD will require your system to have a DVD drive or if purchasing online you will need a DVD writer drive to write the installation DVD prior to installation.
    Feel free to ask any questions which are not covered above.

    I didn't know that there was a cabal of antenna dealers who have been promulgating a myth (as a writer: nicely done there) about the nature of NTSC and ATSC; I hadn't ever considered that the antenna market was that large. When I received the request to write an article about antennas I was actually surprised; antennas don't have the support of major telecommunications companies and I sincerely doubt that there's going to be a run on them because of this article. I saw this as a bit of a public service opportunity to talk about a technology that a small segment would be interested in. 
    Anyway, I'm not sure we're going to get much farther on this; yes Best Buy sells antennas, but no, they didn't ask for an ad. They asked for an article that focused on how these antennas work and what to look for. Thank you for adding your insight about ATSC - I think that was actually covered in paragraphy three, but it's nice to see it spelled out more directly.
