Hi Team

applecs,
You haven't provided much information, such as any error messages or the method of downloading Mavericks or anything. So without more of a description it's a little tough to help you out.

HT4759 Is iCloud not available Mac OS X version 10.6.8
Is iCloud not available Mac OS X version 10.6.8? If it is, then where can I find it out? It is not available in my system preferences.
iCloud requires OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher. You will need to upgrade to OS X Lion higher in order to set up iCloud on your Mac. First check to see if your system meets the system requirements to upgrade.
Lion system requirements are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
Mountain Lion and Mavericks requirements are the same, as listed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5842.
If you can run Mavericks, you can download a free upgrade from the Mac App Store. If your system can only run Lion, you can go here to purchase a redemption code to download it from the Mac App Store. If you prefer Mountain Lion for software compatibility reasons, you can go here to purchase a redemption code to download it from the Mac App Store.
After upgrading, you will find iCloud in System Preferences>iCloud on your Mac, and can set it up as explained here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html.
Before upgrading, you may want to check the compatibility of your existing applications by checking here: http://roaringapps.com/apps:table. Also be aware that older PPC programs such as AppleWorks and Office 2004 for Mac will not run on OS X Lion or higher. -
Correct software to upgrade Mac OS X Version 10 5 8
A family member has given my daughter their "old" mac. I would like to purchase the correct software to upgrade it to the highest spec I possibly can. I am very nervous because I am a bit of a technophobe and don't want to buy the wrong thing!
Can you offer some advice please.Hi
Here is required info:
Mac OS X
Version 10.5.8
Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 2 GB 667 MHz DDR2SDRAM
Startup Disk (Not Required)
Graphics etc (Required) Nothing showing - or should I click More Info for that?
etc (Not Required)
Also, just to say that she wants to be able to run Sibelius on it - for Music A Level.
Hope you can help and thank you for your time.
Many thanks

Upgrading Mac OS X version 10.5.8 to get to Mac OS X version 10.6.8
I have a MacBook Pro Intel Core Duo 2.4 Ghz, Mac OS X version 10.5.8 and I need to get to Mac OS X version 10.6.8 so that I can install iTunes 10.7 so that I can use my iPhone 5 – does anybody know the easiest route to get there? Any risk of losing data on the way? Many thanks!
Get SL install disc from Apple's online store's telesales agents: 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775. AFAIK, no data loss risk, since the installer just replaces OS components and basic Apple apps. However, when upgrading, it's always advisable to have a restorable backup. See these for details:

When ARD does not know Mac OS X version of machine, how to search?
I have about 40 servers I am trying to administer with ARD. A bit more than a half dozen are 10.4, a few more than a half dozen and 10.5 and about a dozen are 10.6. And a bunch are listed in ARD as "-" in the "Mac OS Version" column.
I can create a smart list to track the Tiger, Leopard and Snow Leopard machines. How do I create a smart list to track the others?
It would be easier if I could have the Tiger list be all machines with version matching "10.4.*", but I cannot seem to put a wildcard character there. But if I could, I could use (not Tiger and not Leopard and not SnowLeopard). Is there a reason why both (version < 10.4) and (version > 10.6) return nothing. Either the null should sort high or sort low, but it seems to be neither. Any suggestions?I think the problem is slightly more than that. I noticed something. Some of our servers have 2 ethernet cards and, in some cases, we access the machine via different names. So, for example, host1 and host2 point to different IP addresses but are the same machine. What I am noticing is that host1 (arbitrarily chosen) correctly identifies the version, but host2 does not.
Yet, you can see the output below. Looks the same to me.

I cannoy download the latest version of Itunes it will not upgrade from the current version
I cannot upgrade my current version of Itunes to the current version Is there any help available?
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
The error hints at a similar pattern to those discussed in the first and third boxes of the user tip, suggesting that you've got an outdated .dll file that needs replacing. You should find CoreMedia.dll in the one of the following folders:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
Delete it and then repair Apple Mobile Device Support from the Programs and Features control panel. If that doesn't work go for the full tear down and rebuild.

Why is my Garage Band not upgrading to the latest version yet?
I watched the new update keynote today and I cannot wait to play on the new Garage Band... However, my garage band app is not updated yet. What is the problem? iMovie and iPhoto have updated, why not Garage Band?
I'm in Garageband Groundhog Day download loop.
First it didn't update like other iLife Apps.
Then I found it in App Store Featured section, with Update tag attached. I did.
Then after download, I found I had two versions. Opened newest and a further download was needed. (see screen grab)
This further download takes ages and stops (without fail) around the 1 minute mark for no known reason (just disappears from screen).
So then you open Garageband App again and it starts the second download again.
Repeat loop... until Bill Murray helps you to become a better person?
I've deleted both old and new and re-downloaded Garageband from App store.
Nothing seems to help. The download from within Garageband keeps mucking up along the way, and I get kicked back out of it.
Any thoughts? -
Hello,
I want to buy logic pro x and i recieve this message: Logic Pro X can’t be installed on “Macintosh HD” because Mac OS X version 10.8.4 or later is required. what i need to do? thanks!!Given you apparently are looking for a different answer to the completely obvious one....
You can;
1) Undress.. stand on one leg, wear a very silly hat... whistle "Dixie" and pray to the Gods of Apple that they will somehow magically install LPX for you...
2) Spend your days in the studio wondering what "Mac OS X version 10.8.4 or later is required" actually means... and make up a song in your head baed on the resulting thoughts... Of course, you won't be able to actually record it but maybe thats not such a bad thing for the rest of the world..
3) You could run out to the nearest Apple Store.. spend a small fortune on a new Mac that has "Mac OS X version 10.8.4 or later" already installed and use that to install LPX on.. even though your current Mac may be perfectly capable of running LPX.. if only you actually followed the advice given by Blueberry... and did what the error meassage you orginally received, told you to do...
4) You could simply give up on music entirely.... and spend the rsst of your life.. meditating quietly in a corner.... waiting on the world to do everything for you....
Seriously though...............
There comes a point when it's really hard to take such a question seriously when the answer is there, right in front of you...plain as day...
A) Upgrade your OS X version and then install LPX
or...
B) Do not upgrade your OS X version and do not install LPX.. Do not pass Go.. Do not collect/spend $200......
Pretty simple really! -
Can we upgare mac os x version from 10.4.11 to 10.5.6?
can we upgrade mac os x version from 10.4.11 to 10.5.6 or higer version/
All pre-August 28, 2009 MacBooks with 1 GB of RAM support a minimum of 10.6.8, and can be upgraded to 10.6 via this store purchase:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Getting to 10.6.8 is covered by this tip, which should be read before you even install 10.6:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2455
If you are interested in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, read this tip carefully:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6271
You do not need to purchase 10.5 to get to 10.6 or later. -
What can i do?? Mac OS X Version 10.5.8
My wife has a vin macbook (13-inch) late 2007 with Mac OS X Version 10.5.8!!!!
But its really slow and i am trying to find out how i can make it faster?
Can i upgrade Mac OS X Version 10.5.8??
If yes which one should i choose?
Finally can i upgrade any hardware part(RAM), to make her mac faster?
Thank you!First, increase the RAM to not less than 4GB.
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
(NB: PowerPC applications can still be run in Snow Leopard using Rosetta, but they will not work in later versions of OS X.)
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether any further updates are required, particularly to iTunes.
You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
You can now upgrade to Mavericks OS 10.9 for free IF you have one of the following Macs, with not less than 2GB of RAM, and at least 8GB of available space on your hard drive:
iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later), (15-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later), (17-inch, Late 2007 or later)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
Mac Mini (Early 2009 or later)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later)
Xserve (Early 2009)
iCloud system requirements:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4759
If you cannot run Mavericks you can purchase the code to use to download Lion from the App Store (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard):
http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6106Z/A/os-x-lion
or Mountain Lion:

My MacBook Pro is running on a 10.5.8 operating system but has not allowed me to upgrade. It has been fine for the past few years but is now getting to the point where programs are not functioning properly. What operating system should I be trying to upgrade to and what should I do in order for the upgrade to work? I have tried upgrading to Mac OS X Snow Leopard but it says that I need 10.6 in order to upgrade to Snow Leopard. The only upgrade that has begun to work has been a 10.5.6 which is a less updated version of the operating system that I'm already using. Will downloading 10.5.6 allow me to upgrade to a better version? Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
If it's a Core Duo Mac, click here, install the DVD, and run Software Update.
If it's a Core 2 Duo or better Mac, upgrade it as if it was a Core Duo Mac, and if desired, open the Mac App Store, and try downloading 10.9. If you get told it's incompatible, go to the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC software such as Microsoft Office 2004. If you upgrade the OS, back up the computer first.

I have a mac, In"Design CS 5.5, a design gave me a file said it was CS 6, does not open in CS 5.5..Message says "Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest versions, or upgrade to the latest version of Adobe InDesign." I think I need to buy upgrade from 5.5 to 6. I found one on NextTechDirect for $150 to download. they are not a scam according to "scamadvisor.com."
When I drag the InDesign file that that was supplied by another designer who said it was CS 6 onto my desktop it says CS 5.5. Is that because I only have CS 5.5?
Should I buy this
Adobe InDesign CS6 Upgrade from CS5.5 WIN/MAC [Download] from Next tech....it is obviosly higher on the adobe site and alot of other places?No one is likely to recommend where you buy your software from other than Adobe in these forums... not so much because of support for Adobe, but mostly because of lack of support/knowledge of any third party vendors. I only know from experience that when you invest in bargain pricing you usually get what you pay for.

Hi, I just updated my mac from version10.6 to 10.9.3 os mavericks. i went to open iPhoto and it says "Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade." does this mean I have lost all photos i had in there? It does not give me a choice, it just says quit or upgrade? p.s. i didn't realise ther was a way to back up my computer beforehand, which i am guessing this is time machine?
1. No, you haven't.
2. Back up the iPhoto library(this can be done through Time Machine or by dragging it to a drive, partition, or disk image formatted as Mac OS Extended) and then click Upgrade.
3. Aside from Time Machine and drag-copying items from your home folder, programs such as the Disk Utility, Carbon Copy Cloner, and SuperDuper can make backups.
