Trying to update my mac and the newest version is not being updated

I have been trying to update my mac desktop and it is not updating to the latest IO S version or itunes

A computer cannot run iOS. Do you mean Mac OS?
Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then  "About This Mac".  Write down what it says about "version"and report that here.  Now continue to "More Info..."  Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).  I suspect you are running an older computer in which case it is quite possible you cannot upgrade iTunes unless you can upgrade Mac OS which may not be possible if it is too old.

  • I upgraded to version 5, and I lost google toolbar. I have a mac and the new version will not take it.

    apparently, google toolbar is not compatible with new vesion 5

    Install the following Add-on until Google releases a new version of their toolbar that is compatible with Firefox 5. Google needs to test their toolbar with Firefox 5 and change one line in their code to make it compatilbe. Most Add-ons that worked with Firefox 4 should still work with Firefox 5, but the developers need to update a line in their Add-on's code to indicate with which versions of Firefox the Add-on is compatible. The following Add-on adds a "Compatibility" button in your Add-ons > Extensions that you may need to click after installing it and restarting Firefox.

  • HT4972 I have an iPod touch 3rd generation with IOS 4.2.1 and the newest version of iTunes.  However, when I press "check for updates" it says that IOS 4.2.1 is the current version.  How do I update?

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.

  • Papers2 and the newest version of Pages (5.0.1)

    I have a problem: I'm working with Papers2 (software from mekentosj), and the newest version of pages (5.0.1). But after updating the newest pages version, it doesn't allow me anymore to cite any papers.. It says: this version of pages is not supported.. Anyone has the same problem and knows how to resolve it?!
    Cheers,
    Leonie

    Apple has removed over 90 features from Pages 5.

    Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
    Archive/trash Pages 5 and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • Have a 10.6.8 mac and the icloud icon does not appear on the system preferences

    Hello,
    I have a 10.6.8 mac and the icloud icon does not appear on the system preference, even if I'ved upgraded the software.
    Renee

    The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.5 (Mavericks preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is now non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.
    To make use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mavericks, provided it meets the requirements.
    The requirements for Lion are:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). Mountain Lion (10.8.x) is also available there at the same price (though it's reported to have been removed from sale in some countries so may well cease to be available generally) but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Mavericks (10.9.x) - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
    The requirements for Mountain Lion and Mavericks are:
    OS X v10.6.8 or later
    2GB of memory
    8GB of available space
      and the supported models are:
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
      You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

  • Can't update my Ipod classic's software. My Window's Vista Home Edition will not load the latest version of Itunes, and the older versions will not allow my Ipod to connect to the update server

    I have an Ipod Classic, 80 gig. It's over 3 years old. I have a Samsung SensR410 laptop, also over 3 years old, running Vista Home Premium 32bit but '64bit Compatible'
    I had iTunes 8.
    One day my Ipod stopped working.
    I formatted it.
    I uninstalled iTiunes.
    I re-installed iTunes.
    But the latest version would not be loaded on my PC. I chose English as the language, but because I bought my laptop in Korea, some parts of the installation were in Korea. I uninstalled it, following the steps here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
    I re-installed iTunes 8. It loaded, but when I plugged in my Ipod, it said that the Ipod needed to be updated/restored, 'click to contact updater' but then it could not contact the server. I tried: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1814but it didn't help.
    I tried downloading iTunes 9, it loaded, but the Ipod would not connect.
    Help, please!

    Hi Edward,
    You should still be able to manually manage the music on your iPhone within iTunes. Make sure that when your iPhone is plugged in, look in the Summary tab to see if “Manually manage music and videos” is enabled and you can even you turn off Automatically Sync when this iPhone is connected. Take a look at the first article below to give more information on that. As far as your other questions about calling someone, I have provided two options for you. If it is for feedback on iTunes, you can use the second link to give detailed feedback on what is going on. If you want to actually talk to someone, the last link has a list of numbers for you to call for any support or service that you may need.

  • I just installed Lion and the newest version of Logic express 9 (9.1.5) and every time i playback audio I get this error message:  [Disk is too slow or System Overload. (-10010) . Never had any issues before now...

    I just installed OSX Lion (10.7.2) and updated to the newest version of Logic express (9.1.5) on a macbook and every time I playback audio I get this error message:  [Disk is too slow or System Overload. (-10010) The Sudden Motion Sensor may have parked the hard drive head, or the disk performance is not sufficient to read or write all audio tracks, or the system was not able to process all data in time]
    Never had any issues before now... any ideas?

    Have a look into the Preferences folder (YourUserFolder/Libraries/Preferences/) and trash all Logic preferences.
    You'll have to setup the program again.
    cheers

  • I have Windows 8 and the newest version of Itunes, stops loading.

    I have tried re-installing, Have the newest version, but every time I open Itunes, It will not load. Help?

    Only the commercials would play for me using version 3, so I upgraded to version 11. Still only the commercials would play, but the show or clips would not. I tried using IE7 and that worked fine playing both. I uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Flash. (note: Firefox seems to have some problem. It identifies it as Shockwave Flash Player and Shockwave Director is something else, but the actual player in the window was the lastest version of Flash. ) The reinstall did not help. I then looked at all the Browser Options and noticed that I had disabled 3rd party cookies. I like to run that way. I re-enabled 3rd party cookies and now both the commercials and videos play. I hope this helps.

  • I run Windows 7 and the newest version (10.6) of iTunes will not install. The installer won't even begin, and when I run the Apple Software update, it tells me that iCloud and iTunes have invalid signature.

    When I run the Apple Software update, it tells me that iCloud and iTunes have invalid signature and will not be downloaded. When I DL iTunes64setup.exe, the program will not start (there's a bar that flashes but nothing actually begins). I've done everything short of reinstalling Windows to fix this (system resore, unistalling all Apple products, taking down firewall, running Windows FixIt - which either won't find the problem or gives me an error saying that the troubleshooter cannot be downloaded at this time, going into the security features to allow programs without valid signatures, trying to install earlier versions of iTunes). It all started when I downloaded the Decemberists new album on my iPhone, and it wasn't downloading it properly so I connected it to my Dell, but some songs still wouldn't DL - also, the newest OS for my iPhone still won't install via WiFi - and so I uninstalled iTunes first, but nothing is helping. And I don't have any security issues (Norton has checked). Any ideas? I'm at my wit's end after 3 days of this. Thank you.

    Ok, so after like 4 days of going through all these different issues, I figured out that several programs weren't downloading, and it was an issue with my wireless connectivity messing up the digital signatures, so if you plug in your comp to the modem and delete your temp files, it should start to work!

  • I plugged a usb controller into my mac and the vibrate function is not stopping. Do macs not support plug and play?

    I'm still very new to forums so please excuse anything that may have been previously asked. I purchased a USB controller for my mac to play a couple games and the vibrate function on the controller will not stop. I was wondering if there is a way to access the controller setting or if os x supports plug and play controllers? Any help is greatly apprectiated.

  • The Creative Cloud Update worked for Photoshop.  However, it shows my LR 5.4 as "up to date" and the CC version will not load.  Advice was to uninstall LR using the Adobe Uninstaller but it doesn't exist on my iMac with Mavericks.  What am I suppposed to

    Sorry for the long title.  I thought I was actually asking the question.  Why can't I update my LR 5.4 to LR CC?  I have an iMac 27inch running Mavericks.  I have lots of room on my hard drive and have 16 GB of RAM.

    Long titles seem to be happening a lot since the last forum software update so it's not just you!
    There is no Lightroom CC. You get the latest version (currently 5.4) with Creative Cloud, and so the CC app is correct in stating that your LR is up to date. Unlike Photoshop and most of the other Creative Cloud applications, Lightroom is not branded as "CC" because it's also available separately as a stand-alone perpetual licence product. When 5.5 (or 6.0 - or even a CC-only version) are released in the future, the CC app should prompt you to update and so in the meantime you're good to go.

  • I would like to remove version 4 and go back to 3.5 or 3.6 for my mac because the new version is not supported in my college's uen site; how do i do this?

    this is the webpage that is not supported yet by the new version
    https://online.uen.org/webct/entryPageIns.dowebct

    Trash Firefox 4, then install Firefox 3.6. You can get Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    When you trash Firefox 4 it will not remove your bookmarks, passwords etc, they are stored elsewhere and will be used when you install Firefox 3.6

  • HT5127 I had one day left on my trial version of final cut pro x so decided to purchase the full version.  Now I have both versions and the full version does not have any of the events or projects in it.  What can I do?

    Please help.

    Patricl, please answer Russ's question; and fear not, deleting or installing a version of FCP X does not delete or move any of your media or projects.
    If the trial was from an older version (10.0.x), there is a necessary update procedure. 10.1.x uses libraries to organize your content, and the older stuff must be converted to the new organizational scheme, but it is well worth it.

  • I do not want to upgrade to 7.0, I am attending online college and the upgraded version does not work with my school. How can I stop Firefox from upgrading? I have to keep uninstalling the upgrade and installing the old one.

    How can I stop Firefox from automatically upgrading? My on-line college is not compatible with the upgraded version. I have to keep uninstalling the new one and reinstalling the old one.

    It's not a good idea to allow websites to redirect to another site until you know for sure the original site is trustworthy.
    But if you still want to do it (again not a good idea).
    Tools>Options>Advanced>General - In Accessibility, uncheck "warn me when web sites try to redirect..." option.

  • I have a fingerprint reader on my laptop (HP Pavilion dv6) and the newer version will not let me use it to open my previously saved/bookmarked sites, why?

    I have a Digital Persona Fingerprint Reader on my laptop. This feature allows you to swipe your finger and open up saved sites and log-ins. It worked fine with the previous version of mozilla but when I try to use it now I get a message that says, 'Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (dpql) isn't associated with any program.'

    The company that make the bioscanner for HP have abandoned it. For more details see https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/799388
