Update is an upgrade NOT!!!

So, I just installed version 10.2, and it appears that Blackberry has totally ignored EVERYTHING that people have complained about with OS10!!! I wanted THREE things to be brought back in this update. SIMPLE things!!! First of all, I wanted to be able to create sound/notification profiles. I was disappointed when I was unable to just witch from "Vibrate" to "Normal" (for example), without having to change all of the individual settings. My old Bold allowed this, and it was nice. Basically, we can use only ONE setting now. The second thing I wanted as the ability to delete emails on the device only, while keeping them on the server. And lastly,I wanted the "Auto On/Auto Off" feature brought back. Blackberry is still a good phone, but it is hard to keep defending them when they try to make their devices too much like Apple products. They should go back to their roots. We want Blackberry's for a reason-bring those things back PLEASE!!!

For you it requires an upgrade of OS X. Since you have 10.6.8 installed you can upgrade directly to Yosemite for free provided your hardware meets the requirements:
Upgrading to Yosemite
You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Yosemite
To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
    OS X Mavericks/Yosemite - System Requirements
      Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
     Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
Now there is an issue on Apple's server that seems to keep users with 10.6.8 from downloading Yosemite. Apple is working on the problem, so be patient and keep trying

    Click here, install the DVD, run Software Update, open the Mac App Store, and try purchasing Mountain Lion. If you get told it's incompatible, phone the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion.

    Hi MK,
    You can try few things:
    1. Check to collector standard job like SAP_COLLECTOR_FOR_PERFMONITOR should be running succesfully.
    2.If you can check to data collector collection interval column , you will find it to be Not Schedule.
    Try with Repair all collector.
    To make it work properly you have to perform

    There lies the possible root of the problem. Make sure you keep enough available space for the ipad to update and function properly.

    What particular update are you looking for?  For Creative Suite 5 the only updates we are likely to make at this point will be for important security updates.

  • Unable to connect to companies in current server as algorithm is not update; run common upgrade security algorithm

    Dear,
    I've had problems with the installation of version 9.0 PL04 (base) when trying to enter the base DemoUS, this system message I get: Unable to connect to companies in current server as algorithm is not update; run common upgrade security algorithm.
    Please someone has an idea how to fix (attached image of the message).

    Try this:
    1. Check if the SBO-Common database exist. If you cannot find SBO-Common database you must re-install SBO system on the server.
    2. If the SBO-Common database exists, then SAP Business One application version is higher than the SBO-Common database version. Perform version upgrade.
    Regards,
    JC.

  • "Recently Added" has not updated since I upgraded

    My "Recently Added" playlist hasn't updated since I upgraded Friday afternoon. I cannot find any user setting that allows you to change this or set up your own.
    I find the "Recently Added" section an easy way to play together the most recently downloaded podcasts. Now, nothing updates.

    i've had the exact same problem since i upgraded. Not just the Recently Added not working, but none of the new music I download will import or add to the library.

  • I received an Keynote update notice on my Mac Air. I updated and now can not get into my saved keynote docs. I am being asked to upgrade again and purchase the upgrade. Anyone else having this issue?

    I received an Keynote update notice on my Mac Air. I updated and now can not get into my saved keynote docs. I am being asked to upgrade again and purchase the upgrade. Anyone else having this issue?

    Try this repair, ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
    1  delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, use Appcleaner from Mac Update to           do this, its freeware
    2  restart the Mac;   Apple menu > restart
    3  immediately after the start chime,  press the shift key until you see the Apple symbol.
             let it fully boot up,  it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
    4  when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive  then First Aid tab and           click  repair disc permissions
    5  when complete, restart the Mac normally
    6  install Keynote from the Mac App Store
    Please report back to let us know if this helped.

  • Older versions of Apple Updater and Bonjour can not be deleted

    I sent back my 1st Gen. Nano on recall. I then tried to sync the new 6th Gen. Nano to my iTunes 9.0. iTunes said I had to upgrade to iTunes 10.... When I tried to upgrade I got a message saying older versions of Apple updater and Bonjour could not be deleted. Also said something about Apple Software msi.dll not found.
    Going through the online Apple support procedures I was told to delete iTunes, which I did. It is now gone although I think it is in "My Music" but I don't know how to get it back to where it was.
    I called support and talked to a Asian Lady who spoke poor English and talked VERY fast. As I am 76 and hard of hear, which I told her at the begining, it was hard to talk with her. She told me I had no warrantee service available to me. I told her that the replacement Nano had a 90 day warrantee, which it does. I told her I felt if Apple was providing me with a replacement that required software updates to function in iTunes then their software to download the latest iTunes should contain whatever it needs to do so. SHE HUNGUP on me!!!!!!
    Now my question to you folks, how do I retrieve iTunes from the "My Music" location?
    And how do I do/get whatever I need to upgrade iTunes?
    Please speck like you are talking to an idiot as I am pretty dense on this.
    I did follow Apples on line procedures and this is the mess I'm in.
    Many thanks, Bill

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" 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 Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Next, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple Website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Does it go through properly this time?

  • Software Updates Missing and File Not opening in Final Cut Pro

    Hi Experts,
    I am having trouble with Final Cut Pro. Here goes:-
    I tried to load up a FCP file called "Overview" in Lesson One of the Apple Pro Training Series book called "Color". The file would not open and I got the following message alert in FCP:
    "File's format is too new for this version of the application".
    I am running FCP 6.0.1 and so went to check for software updates. I could not find any listed for FCP. I did a quick internet search to make sure and found there were indeed updates to 6.0.1.
    So I guess I have 2 problems:
    1. Why won't a file from a book that was published before I bought FCP work on my app?
    2. Why can't I see updates for FCP in the Software Update application?
    I am mega stuck with this. I have read of similar problems to mine on the internet but have found no solution. I hope that you will be able to help me out.
    Thank you all,
    Bob

    Hi Nick!
    Thanks for your reply. I feel kinda silly now but I have been continuously checking Software Update for 24hrs and I just got a new addition to the list which was called "Pro Applications Update 2008-05".
    Seeing something new, I installed it and it upgraded my Final Cut Applications including FCP to version 6.0.5.
    The file then opened.
    I am truly sorry to have taken your time up. As when I posted last time Nick, you were very prompt and helpful.
    All the best,
    This problem is solved for me and I hope all the other people having this problem find this update as luckily as I just did.

  • App store won't let me update iphoto since upgrading to yosemite

    i just upgraded to Yosemite, and now my dock shows the iPhoto icon with a slash over it saying that it's not compatible with Yosemite. when i go to the app store to update i get the message as follows -
    Update Unavailable with This Apple ID
    This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled.
    unfortunately i can't even find out what version of iPhoto i'm running because i can't open it.
    anyone have any ideas on what's wrong? thanks in advance!

    You should be able to go the Mac App Store, login with your Apple ID that you have set up and registered, and then since you just bought the iMac New you should find those two Apps to click on listed in the "Purchases" List that is associated with your Apple ID account.  You may or may not need to, for Free, redownload those two Apps from the Purchases List to trigger allowing Free Updates.  I'm not sure, not having done this that way.
    Hope this helps

  • Flash Player 10.2.153.1 upgrade not working on 64bit Intel-Mac in Safari 5.0.4

    I feel robbed! I want to use my Safari.
    The latest upgrade of Flash player does not work.
    I don't even remember downloading it, it must've been an automatic update!
    I can not play youtube videos nor can I play any games on Facebook.
    Who knows what is not working in my Avid!! I have not been working on that lately.
    The flash player still works on FireFox, but i have no intention on switching to that.
    The first aid has been run a few times.
    It will download the free flash player for Intel Mac and it says the install is successful, but it is not there.
    I have CS4 and it never bothered or disrupted the free flash player before.
    I uninstalled it just in case and nearly lost it! When I tried to reinstall Flash, it said my disc to was blank!
    Luckily, a friend in the business of fixing computers was able to get that back! whew.
    The flash player from the CS4 is showing up in a folder and will even open when clicked on, but it does nothing. It is version 10.0 r2.
    When I go to the place where they say to "see what version of flash you have"
    I just get that icon that says to "Get Adobe Flash player".
    It down not show the suggested "missing plug-in" pictures.
    Yes, I read there is compatibility issues with the 64 bit Mac, but it always worked before!!!
    Help!! Please!!

    So the Shockwave Flash plugin in FF is Installed and Enabled. That's why Flash Player is working and why you were able to see the Flash Player logo animation. On the other hand, evidently the Shockwave Flash plugin is either not Installed in Safari or if it is it is Disabled. And that is why it's not working and you can't see the Flash Player logo.
    Yes, I know Flash Player can be Installed in any supported 64bit OS. Also I thot that the 64bit browser in Mac was the "default" browser and the "Compatibility layer" had to be used. Similiar to the PC IE8 or IE9, switching over to the Compatibility feature in the browser.
    Do you need to activate the Compatibility feature?  I have had other Mac users tell me that their problem was they were using the 64bit browser and found out they had to use the 32bit browser, so I thot it was something they had to do. I would think if it was automatic they would not have had to "do" anything. But like I said I don't use Mac so can only relate what they tell me.
    With Safari on either of the test sites, no Flash Player version was displayed?
    Look into the HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins/ directory and see if you have the below two files:
    Flash Player.plugin, flashplayer.xpt
    After that see if this thread is of any help: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2725949#2725949
