New operating system is burning up my battery life -- any suggestions!?
New 7.0.3 operating system seems to be burning up my battery. My 4s i-phone doesn't hold the charge at all now and this started when I installed the new OS. Is anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions how to get my battery efficiency back -- at least until I can turn in my 4s for a 5c in March 2014.
HELP!

let your battery completely die out to where your phone shuts off, and then charge it fully without using it.

Battery malfunction after new operating system
The new operating system seems really nice, but it needs a patch because there is something wrong with the battery that charges normally 20% or 30% and then it shows full battery but it doesn't last more than an hour.
I'm really worried about it!!! I'm in Colombia (South America)!!!I can understand, but just before the update was perfect. I'm really sad about thist

Want to upgrade my PowerMac G4 OSX 10.3.9 to newer operating system
I am a new user to Apple Support. I have an older PowerMac G4, Dual 800 MHz, 1.25 GB SDRAM. I am currently running 10.3.9 but am experiencing problems related to having an older operating system, such as syncing my new iPod, and viewing websites. Otherwise, all is working fine and I hate to mess with something that is not broken, but I would like to upgrade the operating system. I only have an internal CD drive, but do have an external DVD. I have never installed a new operating system before. Do I need to reinstall all the software as well? I do not have all of the original disks for the software I use daily. Also, I am told by Apple that they only have OSX 10.4 available on DVD, and I don't think I will be able to install these from my external drive. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I should go about this upgrade? Thank you!
Hello amyw9999,
And welcome to the Apple Forum!
There are a couple of ways to handle this, but I'll suggest one, and others can suggest more.
You might start by replacing your CD drive with a DVD/CD Superdrive. Newegg.com sells the Pioneer DVR-115DBK (the latest model - which will probably burn faster than your QS is capable of) for about $30 + $5 s&h. The Pioneers are good drives and seem to work well with Macs. Installation has always been straightforward and not too difficult, although I just took a look at my newly acquired dual 800 QS and discovered they changed the procedure from the earlier models and I haven't quite figured it out yet.
You can get Tiger on CD if you search a bit, but you really should be up to date, mate, and be able to handle DVDs, and the Pioneer Superdrive is an inexpensive way to go.
You may be able to use your external DVD drive; someone else will know for certain.
To deal with a new OS, the easy way is to get a nice new Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM Hard Drive - 120GB with an 8MB cache - ST3120026A-RK is the old standard; ST31200815A is a slightly newer version which will work standing up, sitting down, or turned on its head. 120GB is considered small these days, and may be a little harder to find than larger sizes, but is the largest size your QS will recognise natively. To be able to run a larger HD, get an ATA-100/133 Acard 6280M (for Mac) controller card which will let you add up to four new larger drives of virtually any size (in case you want to download the uncut version of War and Peace) - only $60 at (you guessed it) Newegg.com.
You can then install your old software onto the new HD at your leisure, remembering that some of it may want an updated version. You can run two Hard Drives at the same time as master and slave, and choose which one you want to boot to. This is also helpful in case you suddenly decide you want another Mac: you can just swap in one of the HDs and you're in business. (this is what I do)
You should also be able just to install Tiger on your existing Hard Drive. I'll let someone else explain, since I might miss something.
Mugged by Progress, I guess; take a deep breath and plunge ahead!

Purchasing new Operating system
Has anyone purchased any new operating system. Leopard or Mountain lion? There appears to be only 2 method through the Apple store which must take a long time to down load and would seem to have a high risk of corruption and Apple provides a USB stick with the Operating system which I am told you must pay for the USB.
No more 10.7 USB's, it's all 10.8 downloads now.
Yes it does take a long time to download and have a high risk of corruption, depending where you are.
Stick with 10.6 like lot of people are doing, make duplicates of your 10.6 install disk, download and burn a couple of copies of the 10.6.8 Combo Update and your set.
Clone your boot drive to a couple of external drives too. Settle in for the next decade on the best OS X version (and the last SJ approved) ever.
Most commonly used backup methods -
Why does the new operating system not delete the moved files from their original locations - it seems like an enormous waste of space, time and effort to clean up every file once you've moved it - also, when transferring large amounts of files it becomes a very large problem remembering which files were transferred and which not.
You're going to need to be more specific, as I'm not quite sure I understand what you're talking about.
If you're referring to copying from an external hard drive or flash drive, and you want to actually move files rather than copy them, you can hold down the option key to force it to do a "move" rather than a "copy." This is not new behavior, though... the Mac OS has worked this way as long as I can recall (and I've been using it since 1984).
If you're having a problem with trying to move files from one place to another on a single drive causing them to be copied instead, that is likely because of some permissions issue preventing you from actually being able to move them. -
How can I restore my iPhone 3Gs after I tried to update to the new operating system.
I tried to upgrade my 3Gs to the new operating system(IOS5) and I got some kind of unknown error. I told iTunes to do the back up before doing the upgrade. The phone is stuck in restore mode with the "connect to iTunes" logo displayed.
I have the latest version of iTunes on my computer. I've restarted my computer. The iTunes doesnt seem to see the iPhone, but when I connect the phone to the computer I hear the recognition jingle by the comoputer, the one you hear when when a piece of equipment is connected to the computer. In addition, when i look at "my computer" I dont see the iPhone in the selections of items connected to the computer.
I have tried all the reset proceducures with turning the phone off and using the home key.
Does anybody have any suggestions?Hi,

My computer has had a new operating system put on (Windows 7) but I did not de-authorise my old computer which was Windows Vista and now I cannot sync my Ipod Classic as it keeps saying I have exceeded my maximum of 5 computers being authororized. I tried doing this via my account in the Itunes Store but it still won't allow me to do this. Can anyone help?
Contact Apple customer support, they can reset your authorizations.

Error message when updating to new operating system
I just bought the iPhone 4 and it did not have the new operating system. When I try to download it my itunes goes through the whole process and then tells me there was an error and to make sure to check my network settings are correct and my network connection is active. Any ideas??
Hi there! I'm new to Apple Discussions but I'm willing to help in anyway I can. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Try turning off your firewall, something could be blocking it. I also suggest a restart of your computer system, it may fix a few of those pesky bugs. It usually works with my other application problems.
Hope I helped.

Since I downloaded the new operating system (6.1.3) to my iPod touch I can no longer update my Apps or download and new Apps. My password is recognized but when touching the update (all) button or download, the screen immediately reverts to the earlier screen and no updating or downloading occurs.
Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of the Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

I have a MacBook which I purchased in 2006. It cannot upgrade to newer operating systems.Since Apple has stopped support to Snow Leopard, how can I keep my MacBook safe? Buying another computer is not an option. Any ideas or suggestions? Many thanks.

Apple still sell, and therefore support, Snow Leopard.
For what it's worth, from my reading of the Snow Leopard EULA (and I would assume that there is similar language in the EULAs for all other operating systems, as well), I'm not seeing any obligation on the part of Apple to provide Security Updates of any kind, period/full stop. The wording appears to be completely "use at your own risk." I have no idea whether this "use at your own risk" would survive a legal challenge, or if such a legal challenge would depend on whether or not Apple is still selling (or even giving away for free) an OS, or whether local law would, according to this, override the EULA. Perhaps this is why Apple never formally announces EOL or discontinuance of support for an OS. They can always claim that they are still supporting an OS, whether or not in any practical sense, they are. There was even a very late Flashback detection and removal script which Apple issued for 10.5 well after it was clear that they had stopped supporting Leopard. This hardly constituted ongoing support, but perhaps it was to deter the threat of legal action, or maybe it was simply out of benevolence. I don't know.
Besides that, even when Apple was still actively "supporting" Snow Leopard, which I don't think it is any longer, "use at your own risk" would still have applied to a case where Apple may have been late with a patch, or a response, or an adequate response, to a zero-day threat, such as Flashback was, which was constantly evolving. Many thousands were affected by that, and, to my knowledge, at least, there was no legal action directed at Apple throughout or after that episode. If there was any, I don't think it succeeded.

I hate the new operating system. Can't connect to wifi in home anymore even after a restore. Rhapsody no longer works on my phone either. Plus the brighth graphics are bothering my eyes even with brightness turned down. Any ideas on why rhapsody doesn't why rhapsody doesn't work anymore?
Contact Rhapsody to see if they have or plan to release an update for the app. Try uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears?

I have a MacBook Air and recently downloaded the new operating system, 10.10 OSX Yosemite. Since that time, I am no longer able to access my personal ITunes library to add music to IPhoto slideshows. I put I tunes library on my desktop, as suggested. How do I drag it to the I Photo slideshow?
That crash appears to be casued by the Facebook plug-in.
Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts or Users & Groups on 10.7 and 10.8), make a new Library in that account, import some shots and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.
