Hi,
You obviously have OS X 10.9.2 as the latest version arrives when you Upgrade.
What were you using before ?
If you were using an OS X prior to OS X 10.8.2 (Mountain Lion's second update) then check the Serial Number is present.
Use the Apple (Icon) Menu top left.
Select About this Mac.
Click twice on the OS X version.
It will show you the Build Number and then the Serial Number (if it is present)
If it is not you will need to visit and Apple Store or an Apple Authorised Service Provider to have it replaced.

    Hi stanlaw,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The information below should help you with this.
    Associating and verifying email addresses with your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HE68
    How to verify the primary email address for your Apple ID
    When you first create an Apple ID (using your email address) a verification email will be sent to that address. If you sign in to your Apple ID from the link in that email, the email address will be verified as the primary email address for your Apple ID. You can also resend the email verification if the email address is not verified:
    1. Sign in to My Apple ID to manage your account information.
    2. Click Resend under Primary Email Address.
    3. Verify your changes by following the link in the email you will receive from Apple and signing back in to your account.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Happy Holidays!

    My iPod was restored after being disabled.  I am trying to sign into iCloud to load my back-up on the iPod.  I can't sign in because the sign-in request always times out.  Why is this?

    If you do not have access to the primary email of the Apple ID then the only other option to reset the Apple ID password is by the security questions.
    - go to https://appleid.apple.com
    - select Reset your password
    - enter the Apple ID email and press next
    - select Answer Security Questions

    You need iWeb's Domain file from the other computer (your old MacBook Pro) — here's a diagram of where it usually resides:
    ...But since it "died" and presumably inaccessible, see this Apple doc on How to back up MobileMe data. It says:
    “Any websites you have published with iWeb should still be available within iWeb. iWeb stores everything in a Domain file, normally located in the ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder (although it can be moved). If you no longer have this file, you can view your currently published pages and manually recreate them within iWeb, but *there is no way to import published pages back into iWeb*. You can manually back up the Domain file, or use Backup to back it up.”
    By the way, here's the normal procedure when your old computer has not died:
    _iWeb: Modifying your site from another computer_

  • Why does it say server error when trying to sign into icloud on my microsoft

    I downloaded i cloud for my windows computer and when i try signing into it it says server error. what does this mean. i am trying to set up icloud so i can save photos
    Please help

    Have you tried this with any player and does this happens with all browsers or some specific browser ?
    Its possible that correct MIME is not rendered ,browsers rely on the MIME type sent in the server headers.
    Can you test out with different files and new pages , try to use original format of mp4 for testing.
    Thanks,

  • How do help my students log into their persona accounts when they receive the error message "Internal Server Error?"

    2 students received this error message when they are trying to connect their forallbadges.com accounts to their openbadges accounts. After receiving this error message during our class time, I wasn't even able to log in to their persona accounts. When I enter their email and password info, I then click Sign In but nothing happens. I'm kept on the same page.
    We are using MacBooks running Lion. This is the case in Chrome, Firefox, and Safari. Thanks for any help you can provide. Debbie Blair

    Hi there. I just tried connecting to open badges backpack through forallbadges using a student account that was receiving an internal error message. There was no change. The student account is still receiving the same error message. I've attached a screen shot of the error message.
    There were also a few students that never received a verification email from persona after they created an account through forallbadges. It looks like the accounts are receiving an email that weren't receiving them before. I tried to create a persona account with a student that hadn't received a verification email and now she did! Everything then worked perfectly! I guess the programming update fixed that problem.

  • Am trying to sign into iTunes store only access half way then blank that's it anyone help please

    Hi anyone can help with my iTunes am trying to sign in but only goes half way then blank white nothing happens

    Here's a possible fix for Error 11503 and for error 50.
    It worked for me and hopefully it will work for you.
    I believe this error is caused by the incomplete downloading of either an update to an app, or perhaps a big music file. In my case it was caused by closing the lid on my laptop when I was downloading app updates on a very slow internet connection in a hotel.
    Anyway, here is what I did that fixed it completely.
    Close iTunes.
    Go to this folder : /iTunes/Mobile Applications/Downloads
    You'll find tmp files there. Drag them out of this folder to a temporary folder on your desktop. The Downloads folder should now be empty.
    Restart iTunes.
    All should be fine.
    If it's not, then I can't help further, but that's what worked for me.
