The update DVD dosn't ask for the kind of install
it's my first system upgrade, but i read a lot
now that i receaved the DVD once it start the installation it dosn't ask for the kind of install
archive/upgrade/flat
why? am i missing something?
I did not see any install options either.
I was watching very carefully, or so I thought.
The process just went ahead, after the screen that asked which
drive was to get the install, and performed an Upgrade.
Took about 1 hour, 15 minutes and so far everything I've tried
works.
Hope this helps.
Jim

I have bought an iMAC second hand but when updates to purchased (not by me) Apps I cannot download the updates as it is asking for the original owners password. How can I amend this or could I delete the Apps and download new ones in place under my email
If the machine was upgraded to Lion 10.7.x by the original owner then you bought an illegal license of Lion and also of any other applications that the seller said came pre-installed, this assumes the seller did not include original install media. In that case you need to contact the seller for the original install DVDs that came with the machine re-install up to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and then purchase Mountain Lion ($20) and the applications you want or need. If the seller cannot come up with the original install discs then you can buy them from a nominal cost from AppleCare..

I have had to open a new account, however, there were App updates that did not get installed before I opened the new account. Therefore, when I try to do the updates, it's is asking for the sign-in and password for the old account, which I do not have this information.
All apps are tied to the Apple ID they are purchased with and is not transferable.
Delete these apps and download them with the new Apple ID. -
When I try to open the iphoto it keeps on asking for the software update, but when I click on the software update it says that all the software in the computer are up to date. I still cant open the iphoto, what should I do?
How old is your Mac? If it's very recent you need to update via the App Store
If you purchased at the App Store you need to update via the App Store
Otherwise you update via Softare Update
If you have moved iPhoto from the default location (i.e. into a Folder) then the updater won't find it. Move it back.
If you have renamed iPhoto, the updater won't find it. Change it back.

Well I have a new macbook pro and there is a software update available and after i update it, it keeps asking for the same thing to update over and over again! What can be done?
The App Store version sometimes gives problems. As you can't install 10.8.4 from the App Store, download and install the Combo edition > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1659?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US This edition will work and will update OS X to the most recent version, in that case, 10.8.4

In AppStore.app for some reason when I try to update my apps, it asks for the wrong user account than the one that I am logged in with. This makes me unable to update my apps
You would have downloaded those apps with the wrong Apple ID then created a new Apple ID which is the on you are on now. This is acting as normal because all content downloaded from the iTunes and App Store is attached to the Apple ID it was downloaded with. To stop this you would delete the apps and redownload them with your current Apple ID you are signed in with.

I ran this update and now the ipod never shows as connected
and itunes takes forever to load (if it does (50/50 chance).
The update window, looked ok, i clicked on update (realizing
that all my playlist would be wiped out) and waited, and
waited, etc, etc. Finally the update window blanked out
except for the top bar. I assumed that it was done (has
apple core never heard of a working or busy signal?)
So i disconnected the ipod, rebooted and everything was
slowed way down. Itunes still may or may not run. The one
time i got itunes to run, it said the ipod or a folder was
corrupt. The ipod never shows up in itunes but when i try
to disconnect it (via the task bar icon), it says it cant
be disconnected because a program is still using it.
Need help (and BTY apple, get your act togeather!),
thanks,
savagclI still not using the update.

I have restored my i phone 4 and trying to restore from the back, but it is asking for the password, but when I entered the Itunes password it is not accepting it, how can I restore the password?
Hello hskod,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information, take a look at:
iOS: Troubleshooting encrypted backups
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5162
You can keep trying to restore the device from backup until you remember the password. If you're having trouble, try:
Leaving the password field blank
Your Apple ID password
Your computer account password, if you have one
Email passwords you may have used
Your Wi-Fi network password
Website passwords you may have used
A password for hard-disk encryption software, if you use it
Have a nice day,

I used to share one apple ID/account with my ex but made a new one for myself recently and logged out of the old one but when I try to update my iBooks (only happens with this app)it asks for the other account's password(which my ex changed by now). I don't understand why this happens when I'm logged into my account and it only happens with that app. Please help, I need to update. :/
Content (apps, music, ibooks, films etc) is tied to the account that originally downloaded it, so if the iBooks app was downloaded using the account that you used to share with your ex then only that account can download updates to it. As it's a free app you could delete it and re-download it under your own account - and then re-download your ibooks into it (or copy the books to your computer's iTunes first via File > Transfer Purchases and then sync them back to the app).

How do you get a new version of Quicktime when it states that the msi for the old version is no longer available?
Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATION" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up").
In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC. Now try another QuickTime install. Does it go through properly this time? -
My ipod will not connect to the internet it will keep asking for the password
does anyone know how to fix this?
There are some troubleshooting guides/knowledgebase articles that might help and I'm sure someone will chime in and give you the links.
In the mean time I'll offer this:
I had similar problems getting my iPod Touch to connect to a Verizon FiOS wireless router. I tried every thing, and nothing worked.
Then on a hunch I changed the network name (SSID) and the password, and the iPod connected.
My issue was caused by the fact that by default Verizon uses LONG character strings for the SSID and password. They do this to make your wireless connection "more secure," but for some strange reason iPods are picky about SSID and password length.
Try changing your router SSID and password..... -
Does anyone know about the update that just came out for the s3 a few days ago.
does it fix all of the bugs that people like me were having with 4.3 like apps crashing, huge battery drain and phone lagging. I have not heard anything about it and I want to hear more about it before I start to download the update in case it completely messes up my phone. I hope it fixes my problems and does not give me anymore problems.
It simply just allows roaming on the Canadian Telus network. That's all folks,
