Received a message that installation of new software incomplete - damaged or corrupted during download. How do I re-download Lion?
I was told to purchase Lion and download/install so that I could upload the latest iTunes and backup my iPhone 5S. However, when trying to install Lion on my MacBook (Mac OSX, Version 10.6.8, 2.4 gHz) I received a message that the software had been damaged or corrupted during download and could not be installed. QUESTION: How do I re-download? When I attempt to do so through App store and click on Download button in Purchases, nothing happens. Thanks!
I would have to presume the 2006 Mac was used, and came with Office 2008 on it from the seller. Apple has never offered Office as a bundled purchase, and it is not pre-installed with any Mac.
Since you have the disk for Office 2004, the activation key should be on a sticker on the CD/DVD sleeve. As I recall, anyway. I no longer have my 2004 copy to check. If you have the key, it doesn't matter who it originally belonged to. You can still enter it and activate the software.
Once you have that installed, you can install the XML converter for Office 2004. That will allow you to open from all newer Windows and Mac versions of Office. The only things that won't necessarily convert are features that don't exist in Office 2004, and so can't be translated correctly, or at all.
Microsoft is saying Office 2016 for Mac and Windows should be available for the official release sometime either late summer, or early fall. So hold off purchasing a new version if you can. MS offers to reduced upgrade price for Office. You'd pay full price for Office 2011, and then again for Office 2016.
And just to note. Office 2008 and Office 2011 work fine in Snow Leopard.

I downloaded the new version of pages about a month ago. Today I tried to open documents that I created and saved with the new version and received a message that I needed to download the new version. The app store shows the download. HUH?!?
I'm not sure what you mean by it making accessing files more complicated. I have both Pages 4.3 & Pages 5.1 icons in my Dock as well as Numbers 2.3 & Numbers 3.1. I continue to use the iWork '09 versions for my everyday needs. As long as the new versions are in your Applications folder & the '09 versions in the iWork '09 folder, Software Update will not have a problem updating them even if Apple should come out with a new update for the '09 versions.
Because I have moved the new versions to an external drive & renamed the apps because I want '09 to be the default apps, I do have to remember to move them back to my applications folder & restore the original names before updating. But since you like the new versions this "complication" doesn't apply to you. -
Even though I have the Pages 5.0.1 installed as the default software, I still receive the message “You need a newer version of pages to open this document.” HELP!
Please clarify....

In Final Cut Pro I was trying to move an Event Library from one hard drive to another as explained in the Help section. After doing so, I received a message that my event is already open with the same identifier as the new one I just created on the new disk. It says the second document cannot be opened and to move one of these documents out of your Final Cut Events folder. It also says to avoid this problem, copy events from within Final Cut Pro, but that is what I did in the first place. What should I do to avoid the double opening conflict?
What exactly are you doing and what version are you using with OS X 10.8?

I HAVE BEEN USING AN IPHONE 4 AND I JUST TRANSFERRED ALL MY DATA TO A NEW IPHONES.
IN THE OLD IPHONE I HAD 2 YAHOO AVVOUNTS RECEIVING MAILS.
IN THE NEW IPHONE I CANNOT REGISTER MY SECOND YAHOO ADDRESS ,I KEEP RECEIVING THE MESSAGE THAT YAHOO SERVER CANNOT BE FOUND.
CAN ANYBODY HELP?The reason, I included the annotation that I'd upgraded my Itunes, (On my Computer) is B/C in many forums - the very first question, *HELPERS* ask, is. "Do you have the latest version of Itunes downloaded on your computer." I wanted to knock out any obvious replies.
Now- "DO YOU have any idea,"... how your UNHELPFUL remarks, do absolutely nothing but hurt others that might not have the EXPERIENCE you have? How do you expect people to know things without asking questions? Whew! RUDE!!

will I lose my photos in recovery mode? I tried to update to latest software and I received a message that iphone needs to be updated to factory settings. Please help. I cannot use iphone.
I would "guess", since you were in the middle of backing up, your backup is corrupt & most likely unusable. Only one way to find out though, & that's by trying to restore from that backup. If your pics are not there, they are gone.

Got message that installer was misconfigured when trying to install new Inspiration Browser on my Ma
Tried to install an upgrade to my Elements 9 Inspiration Browser on my Mac and got message that installer was misconfigured-- what can I do?
Well, the first thing to do is to decide whether it's worth hassling with it at all, since the video tutorials are now available at tv.adobe.com.

weI am getting occasional Safari is out of date messages but checking for new software says "up to date". Initially we subscribed to Support but did not realize that it has expired. We have upgraded the OS once but have not received any notices of additional upgrades. So far I have not come across a way to update on my own.
I suspect this is the issue but wonder whether it is wise to upgrade my model:
Model Identifier: iMac11,2
Processor Name: Intel Core i3
Processor Speed: 3.06 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
Will it run it? -
When I turn my computer on (Windows 7) I receive a message that Apple wants to make a change to the hardware. I click on yes but nothing happens. The change has something to do with Apple "push". I recently had a problem with"push" on iTunes when I tried to sync my iPod Touch. I have latest software for iTunes and iPod. Can anyone tell me what to do to get this change to install?

Since hardware cannot be changed with software, perhaps you would be so kind as to post the exact wording of the message? -

Trying to discard an app into TRASH and I receive a message that "app cannot be removed because it is locked." How can I unlock an app???
Something may have corrupted your User account permissions. Whatever it was that did that is likely to do it again, and will require further investigation.
To reset your User account permissions perform the following. It may not fix the problem but it will not make it any worse:
Boot OS X Recovery by holding ⌘ and r (two fingers) while you start your Mac.
When the Mac OS X Utilities screen appears, select Utilities > Terminal.
In the Terminal window type resetpassword and press Enter. A window will open behind Terminal that looks like this:
Do not enter a new password.
Select your startup volume at the top. From the dropdown below it, select the user account with the problem.
At the bottom of the window, you will see Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs.
Click the Reset button.
Quit Reset Password
Quit Terminal
Quit OS X Utilities and restart your Mac.
Back up your system before doing anything else because disk corruption is another possibility that has to be considered. -
Hello. Since accepting the upgrade to the current version of I Tunes (11.4) I have been unable to get the application to boot. I receive the message that I Tunes was not installed correctly and Error 7 (Windows Error 193). I have uninstalled/reinstalled I Tunes several times and this has not resolved the issue. I also uninstalled/reinstalled Microsoft.net Framework 4 since this was suggested by Apple support. This also has not resolved the issue.
When I reinstall I Tunes, I get a message that the “Service ‘apple mobile device’ failed to start.” Verify you have sufficient privileges to start system services. I attempted to manually start the Apple Mobile Device service but get a pop up stating, “Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.”Unsure what I should try next.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 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 section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if one component, such as Apple Mobile Device Support, won't install normally.
In your case I suggest you start with a clean download of the setup file using the direct link. If reinstalling AMDS alone doesn't work try tearing everything down again.
