Store thinks I have latest versions when I don't
Hi. I own Pages 08 and Rapidweaver 4, both of which are not the latest versions. The latest versions, Pages 09 and Rapidweaver 5 are both in the App Store. However, the App Store says that both programs are installed on my Mac, even though, as I said, I have older versions. Because the App Store thinks I have both programs, it won't let me buy them. I don't want to buy the newest versions from the App Store right now but I might in the future. I'm sure this problem must exist with other programs too. Is there a way to let Apple know what's going on? I don't know if Apple employees ever engage in this forums.
Thanks.
If you change/modify the name of the app that is installed, the new version should then become available for purchase in the MAS.
Example; change iPhoto to iPhot. To change the name of a 3rd party app click once on the app's icon to highlight, then click a second time directly over the apps name. To change the name of most Apple apps you will have to change the permissions in the Get Info window for that app first.

Numbers sp sheet is shared. Both user systems on same rev of Numbers.
I have latest version of Numbers (3.1) but when I try to open a Numbers sp. sheet it says I need a newer version. There is no newer version available.
The files get info box says to open it with Numbers 3.1 (default). Other user has no problem opening the file.
What to do next?Hi mwalk,
Try this.
Launchpad (second page) Disk Utility
Or if you can't find it there,
Apple Menu > About This Mac > More Info > Storage > Disc Utility
Select Macintosh HD and Repair Permissions.
Regards,

There are/were three problems:
'''1.''' Why, when I open Firefox 9.01 do I get a message that I do not have the latest version when '''Help>About''' Firefox says I do?
'''2.''' Also, with the 8.xx version, I was unable to open in a new window with a right click until I upgraded to 9.01. (Old problem now, but I am curious.)
'''3.''' When I tried to uninstall the older version the uninstaller told me that I had to close the open version, but it was closed according to my taskbar. I also have this problem with Thunderbird.1. You are using the latest version which is Firefox 9.0.1
From your description it sounds as if you may still have the old http://www.google.com/firefox Firefox start page hosted by Google as your homepage. This old default homepage is no longer used as '''about:home''' has been in use since Firefox 4.0
Either ignore the message, change homepage to '''about:home''', change it to another page or leave blank.

Is this an app bbbc? IF it is I would contact the app developer and see if they can resolve the issue for you.
also take a look at the reviews and see if other users are having the same issue and see if they have a resolution. -

Dear ED3K:
First: I hope you don't work for Apple as you have some poor communication skills in assistance. That said, I would never in a million years pay you 45 dollars to help me. I think I would sleep with Satan first!!
No one here works for Apple. This is a user-to-user technical support forum. Everyone here is a volunteer. You tend to get from this forum what you bring to it. If you come in ranting and raving and saying you're going to throw your iPhone out the window and that Apple is mean, people are not likely to respond to you with sweetness and light and puppies and kittens.
If you really want help, I'd suggest you take a deep breath and then start a new thread in which you explain the problems you're having, the steps you've taken to resolve the problems, any error messages you've gotten. Stick to the facts. Check the attitude and emotion at the door. People will do their best to help you.
Best of luck. -
Do i need to have latest version of imac10.5.8 to connect to iphone5
do i need to have latest version of imac10.5.8 to connect to iphone orother devices of apple and how much it is ?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
To sync the iPhone 5, you need iTunes 10.7, that needs Mac OS X Snow Leopard. You have Leopard, so you have to upgrade OS X.
First, open > About this Mac, and check Processor. If it's Intel, you can upgrade. If not, get a new Mac or PC if you want to sync the iPhone 5.
You can buy Snow Leopard from the Apple Store > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard Then, make a backup of your files with Time Machine or Carbon Copy Cloner, insert the DVD and follow the steps.
After upgrading, open > Software Update, and install 10.6.8. Doing this, you should have iTunes 10.7 or newer, but if not, open > Software Update again. iTunes 11.0.4 will be installed -
Do I have latest versions of Photoshop CC and LR??
I belong to "Photoshop Photography Program" ($10.75/month) and don't remember how to be sure I have latest versions of PS and LR. Thanks.
Thank you the information. Unfortunately I am not very computer literate. I am using a Mac computer. Running Mac OS 10.8.5. My Photoshop CC version is: 14.2.1. My bigger question to you is - I do not understand how the app (Adobe Creative Cloud) works. When I open "Launchpad" on my Mac I see icons for a bunch of Apps. One of them is "Creative Cloud." When I double click this icon nothing happens (at least that I am aware of). On the other hand, when I double click on the "Adobe Photoshop CC" icon - Photoshop opens. I would appreciate your advice about finding the app you mention and then how to open it. May I presume that once the Creative Cloud is open I can click to have latest Photoshop and Lightroom versions installed? Many thanks. Ron

Iphone 5 itunes trouble! itunes on laptop message says i dont have latest version
Hi,I have latest version of itunes on my laptop. I have copied a music CD so i can sync it to my iphone. when i connect my iphone 5 to the laptop i get a message saying 'claire's iphone cannot be used as dont have latest itunes version'. when i check my iphone it says all of my software is up to date. im not very experienced nor technically minded at all so would appreciate help.
Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.) -
Went to open a file in words and got message. "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document." I have latest version. All other files in words open w/o a problem. Please help.
Thank you.
<Email Edited by Host>You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

I am pulling my hair out! I am using adobe indesign and just want to make a text box 'autofit text' as I change fonts a lot and want the font to automatically re-size as I change it.
Is it not possible to create a text box, fill it with dynamic (data driven) text, but make the font size either scale up or down automatically, so that the entire text box is filled? This is a feature in PrintShop Mail Pro called COPY FIT. but no such feature in Indesign??
help help help please - I have latest version of indesign - thanks, DJlol... it seems to work, but I have another huge problem!
Apparently .CSV files cannot contain page breaks in the data! The data I am trying to merge is a 'letter', with paragraphs, line breaks, etc.,
But, after data merging, it ignores page breaks and only merges the first paragraph of each letter. (sigh)
Solution? Hopefully, an EASY solution. lol as we have thousands of records.
Is there a third party indesign plugin that will allow .xml, or .xls data merge import??
Thx,
DJ -

I have latest version of flash but flash doesn't work in safari!
Why do I have latest version of flash but flash doesn't work in safari!I have flash for mac.Your help will be appreciated.
If you're talking about using Flash on your iPod, you can't. There is no version of Flash that will work on any iOS device. If you're talking about using Flash on your computer, you may want to repost in the correct forum.
