Trying to upgade to 10.9.2 i get the error this upgrade requires OS X 10.9

Hi I have a 11 inch Macbook Air that we bought in 2011. It runs OS 10.7.5. I am trying to upgrade to Mavericks for which i understand 10.9.2 is the latest available version on the App store. I downloaded the .pkg however when i try to install it i get an error saying This update requires OS X version 10.9.
I am stumped. Any ideas?

As far as I know, CCC now requires a purchase or do you have other info?
I know that SuperDuper is free for an "Erase & Install" but to get the full features you have to purchase. You can do an "Erase & Install" as many times as you like without paying.
I thought that CCC was also free for the first clone as well, but it seems you have to give your credit card first to use their trial version then request a refund.
Since a clone is an important step before upgrading to Mavericks, having a free option might get users to clone their old drive first.
That said, personally, I prefer CCC - for one thing, they will create or update a recovery partition which SD will not.
Since I have the recovery drive by default on my main drive, it's not a big issue for me to have one on my external drive that holds my clone. Good thing we have choices.

I am using itunes 10 and trying to consolidate my files. I keep getting the error "Copying files failed. The file name was invalid or too long". How can I indentify what file is causing this problem or resolve this issue?

BUMP
Yes, I just get that message. I don't see how I could investigate this problem.
I didn't mention that this happened when I was consolidating my library, not copying files to another computer.
In other words, I'm using a "normal" itunes procedure, itunes won't complete it, and won't tell me exactly why or how to figure out how to fix it...
Is there at least some easy way to tell which files were successfully copied to my itunes music folder so I can work on moving the uncopied files?
Can anybody help me?

I have a new device. When selecting the language and country I am trying to connect to a wifi connection and getting the error 'Your Iphone could not be activated because the activation server cannot be reached. Try connecting to your Iphone to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a few minutes.

Where exactly did you get this phone?
Do you have a SIM in the phone?
There are 2 primary causes for this.
Either you don't have a SIM in the phone, which is REQUIRED to activate it, or the phone was hacked to unlock it.

I am trying to copy a document and I keep getting the error "Can't paste the objects. The requested transformation would make some objects fall completely off the drawing area."

I am trying to make duplicate documents with minor adjustments to each and when I try to copy the artwork from one document and paste it into the new document I keep getting the error "Can't paste the objects. The requested transformation would make some objects fall completely off the drawing area." Both documents are exactly the same size, res, color format etc. I even tried to drag and drop and get the same error message. Anyone know what I can do to resolve this issue?

Try scaling the view size down to 6% or so and then do a Select All. See if there are objects off the artboard which may be causing this error. Most often you will see this if there were guides dragged from a ruler which were selected by dragging the white arrow and then deleted. This leaves the anchor points at the edge of the work area.

While trying to back up my iPhone i keep getting the error message that it cannot read the contents of my phone... It then directs me to restore it back to factory settings. Anyone know why this is happening?

I've used this same iTunes account multiple times to back up phones and restore them when I've gotten new devices. I have restored this device as well once before, but i want it as up to date as possible becuase I am getting the iPhone 6 tomorrow. I've run a diagnostics test and under the connectivity test its saying there is no iPhone found, as well as under the sync test. I've gone through all the steps and what the possible problem could be (un-installing and re-installing, making sure all the software is active and up to date on my computer and making sure everything is installed correctly and running properly) and I'm still getting the same error message. I'm out of options and idea. Please help!

Hey avitz99,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the iPhone is not recognized in iTunes. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

I am trying to sign up for Sync and I get the error "Incorrect Words, Try Again" does anyone know what this means and how to fix it?

No matter what I change email or passwords it continuously gives me this error.

Hi,
Please also try changing the typed words in the Captcha text field below the Captcha image that has a pair of words. If the existing pair is not clear, you can also try clicking on the refresh button (the top button among the three on the right of the image) to get a new image with another pair of words.

When trying to link paypal I am getting the following: 'This recipient requires that you have a valid funding source from United States in order to complete this transaction'...thoughts?

Thanks!

And what if i have money on my paypal account, like $100, and i want to buy a .99 app?
The paypal acc dont have linked any bank account or debit/credit card.
Is that a valid source?
I dont live in the US, of course.

im trying to restore my iphone but i keep getting the error 3014 and im at a loss at what to do

1. Connect your iPhone to the computer and start iTunes.
2. Turn off your iPhone by holding down the Sleep button and slide to power off.
3. Press and hold down the Sleep button and Home button simultaneously.
4. After 10 seconds release the Sleep button but continue to hold the Home button down.
5. iTunes will pop up a window that says it has "detected an iPhone in recovery mode."
Your device is now in DFU mode and can be restored using iTunes. The iPhone screen will remain black until iTunes restores the iPhone.
