Since updating my iPhone my Macbook will not sync I believe its because I am on OSX10.5.8 can i download the new OSX software?

You will need to upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 in order to update iTunes to sync with your iPhone.
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
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:

    Hey Oynkus,
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    You state you updated your iMac to OS X 10.8.5.  Did you update iTunes as well?
    If so, you may find the calendar sync options under Info.
    Sync contacts, calendars, and other info with iPod, iPhone, or iPad - iTunes Help
    Sync contacts and other info with iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad
    Connect your device to your computer.
    Click the device button, then click Info.
    Select the items you want to sync.

  • I just updated my macbook pro and now every time i go to youtube it tells me I have to download the new version of adobe flash player so i do and it still wont let me play it ..

    I just updated my macbook pro and now every time i go to youtube it tells me I have to download the new version of adobe flash player so i do and it still wont let me play it ..

    Assuming Allan's advice is not correct, and you do run the installer, I think I've heard of that problem and it involves removing the old Flash plug-ins, then install the new version. I don't use it so I don't know what they are called, but will be the /Library/Internet Plug-ins folder.
    You can go here and enable HTML5 in YouTube so you don't have to use Flash: http://www.youtube.com/html5
    Most(?) of the content is HTML5, but you may run into videos where you still need Flash.

  • Hi, my iPod touch has been unable to sync since downloading the new cloud software.  It says: An error occurred while restoring this iPod (-34)  So my music is not on it.  it doesn't have 3G so the cloud is pointless anyway.  Music is all I use on it.

    Hi, my iPod touch has been unable to sync since downloading the new cloud software.  It says: An error occurred while restoring this iPod (-34)  So my music is not on it.  The apps are still on it.  It doesn't have 3G so the cloud is pointless anyway.  It just said it was a software update, I should have avoided it.  Music is all I use on it so help me please!

    Error 20, 21, 34, 37: These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. If you are using a PC, follow this article to resolve this issue.

  • When I click on the button to download the new IOS software, I get a message saying that all the items on my iTouch will be removed.  Will I have to reload everything after updating the software?

    When I click on the button to download the new IOS software, I get a message saying that all the items on my iTouch will be removed.  Will I have to reload everything after updating the software?  Because I had to have my hard drive wiped a while back, I have items on my iTouch that are not in my iTunes.  Is there a way to copy everything on the iTouch into iTunes, if necessary, before I load the new software?

    It is possible to transfer purchases from your iPod back into iTunes before updating the OS. If you had any CDs from your personal collection, these you have to put back into iTunes manually. Hope this helps you & good luck!

    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?

  • Ipad2 will freezes when downloading the new ios software update

    ipad2 will freezes when downloading the new ios software update.  When i hold the Base Button and Sleep button together it just does the same thing.  Tried to plug it in directly to my iMAC and it says it can't help me b/c I have a passcode lock.  Any solutions?

    We don't know, and no one will know until Apple has announced it. Furthermore, speculation is forbidden here.

  • Why is there still a notification on my iPhone 5s after I already downloaded the new ios8 software? Can anyone help me to get rid of it?

    Aftee downloading the new ios8 software there is still a "1" notification on my settings. Can anyone tell me how to get rid of it? there is nothing that calls for attention once I get into the settings app. So I'm not sure what to do.

    Hi, S_kozun.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I see you have updated your iPhone to iOS 8 and still show an update notification in settings.  Check to see if you have an update to your carrier settings as this could be the issue.  
    iOS: Updating your carrier settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1970
    However, if the issue persists try forcing all applications to close in multitasking and restart the device.  Once this is done test to see if the behavior persists.
    iOS: Force an app to close

    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

  • Recently purchased a Macbook Pro with screen of retina of 13,3 inches. My question is, can I install the new Final Cut Pro X , is capable of withstanding the app? Or that Final Cut is convenient to install?

    Recently purchased a Macbook Pro with screen of retina of 13,3 inches. My question is, can I install the new Final Cut Pro X , is capable of withstanding the app? Or that Final Cut is convenient to install?

    Generally any Mac made since 2009 can handle FCP X.
    Your small screen is not ideal unless you are young and have good vision.
    However, you needn't ask whether or not your computer is suitable as you can find out yourself by downloading the free 30 day trial.

    In addition, to get you up to speed with FCP X, you can also watch 2 hours of free video tutorials here

    Have you checked the Software update page at the App Store?
    And do you have iLife '11 and iWorks '09 installed? Only these versions are eligible to be updated to the new versions.

  • Can't download the new ipod touch update

    when i go to itunes and try to buy the new upgrade it says that i must download the new ipod software 1.1.3 even though my ipod is up to date. What gives

    You must update to itunes 7.6. You must download, and update your ipod to version 1.1.3 verify on the summary tab in itunes when you plug your ipod in. If you have already purchased the update then you should now be able to sync your ipod and the apps appear. If you have yet to successfully purchase the apps yet purchase, and resync. (you can view your purchase history from itunes store account settings, to check whether you have successfully made the purchase already. Also when you sync your ipod the first time to get the apps to show up, you must be set to automatically sync, not manual.
