Updating my Mac Book pro

I am trying to update my Mac Book Pro and every time I try and update it and sign in my apple ID it says that its the wrong password, I had reset my apple ID and everything. It still won't work and I want to update my computer, Thank You

When you say update, do you mean upgrade to newer OS X, or update the currently installed OS X?
Which OS X is installled now?
Click the Apple  top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click: About this Mac.
Which version does it say?

how to update my mac book pro from 10.5.8 to the leatest version

Upgrading to Snow Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will receive physical media - DVD - by mail.
Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
Snow Leopard from eBay
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.
Before upgrading check that you computer meets the minimum requirements:
Snow Leopard General requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
2. 1GB of memory
3. 5GB of available disk space
4. DVD drive for installation
5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may
apply.

Upgrading to Lion
First, you need to upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 as stated above.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
Before upgrading check that you computer meets the minimum requirements:
Lion System Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or
Xeon processor
2. 2GB of memory

4. 7GB of available space
5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
Be sure your computer meets the minimum requirements:
Apple - OS X Mountain Lion - Read the technical specifications.
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Since updating my Mac Book Pro from Mountain Lion to Maverick the computer is running slowly. Its slow to open and slow to download

Hi since updating my Mac Book Pro from Mountain Lion to Maverick the computer is running slow

When you have the problem, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above. Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first. Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of it useless for solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough. It is never necessary or helpful to post more than about 100 lines. "The more, the better" is not the rule here.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Connecting your MacBook Pro and your MacBook Air will be the fastest way, but you have to spend money on cables and adapters (also, your MacBook Pro doesn't support Thunderbolt).
As you have a Time Capsule, one thing you can do is to start your MacBook Pro and make a Time Machine backup. Then, turn on your MacBook Air and set it up. Setup Assistant will ask you to restore a backup, so select the option to restore the backup from the Time Capsule and be patient. This can take a lot of time if you have to migrate a lot of files

Updated my mac book pro today

Updated my mac book pro today and now my home page is blank. Went in to Safari preferences and reset it and it is still is a blank page when I open Safari. Please help.

I have it working now.
I had to go in the finder, home, library, caches, com.apple.safari.plist. Then drag com.apple.safari.plist to trash. Then just reset your home page. It worked great.

IWork won't update on Mac Book Pro

Hi,
I am using 10.7.2. on my mac book pro. I have iWork installed and Pages is currently on '09 version 4.0.5. Whenever I open pages it says there is a new update available and there is a link to the software update. When I go to update it using the software update it says my computer is up to date with no mention of the iWork update. I've also tried the Mac App Store but I didn't but my iWork off it and there is also no mention of anything needing an update. I'm confused as to why my computer can't find the upgrade. Any ideas?

I've had exactly the same problem - very odd! - I tried making sure everything was in the iWork folder, but it still told me all my software was up to date, even though my Pages for example is version 4.05 and the current Pages in the App Store is 4.1.
Peter - will try your download though to see if that works.

Trouble installing the latest update on Mac book pro.

My Mac book pro seems to have froze while installing latest update. Bar is not moving and it has said about 2 minutes for over a half hour. Internet is working, I sent this off my ipad on wifi. I can not bring up the task manager. Not sure what to do.

Hi K.fioretti
Look I'm not sure if this can damage your laptop but many a times it happens with me while gaming my MacBook Pro freezes and then i just press and hold the power button for ten seconds and restart it and it just works fine for me.
In the process of updating, it never happened to freeze so it's upto you.

Firmware update causes mac book pro to not respond

Hi all. I was hoping someone could help me out please? I just ran the latest firmware update for my 2011 mac book pro and after it installed it now won't start up, only getting to the gray screen before freezing there.
I've tried all the on line solutions I can find on Apple's site, but no luck. Can anyone please tell me how I can fix this??
Thanks heaps.

See gray screen

Hold the shift key down upon boot, this will perform checks and disable any third party kext files installed into OSX and called a Safe Boot.
(Kext files can also be installed by software itself and if you have it auto-launcing at log-in that could cause a freeze.)
Once in, copy your personal data off the machine to a external storage drive (in addition to TimeMachine if your using it) and disconnect.
Go around and update all your third party software, or remove some that don't have a update and do have kext files in the System/Library/Extensions folder (use the devleopers uninstaller preferred)
If that fails then hold c boot off the 10.6 disk (or command r boot into 10.7 recovery) and simply reinstall OS X, this will replace OS X only with a fresh copy, then software update.
If that fails, then you likely have a failed firmware install, you can install it manually
https://support.apple.com/kb/HT2213
https://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237
If that fails, you'll have to take your machine in for service and get the logicboard replaced.
If OS X boots, but you can't log in or have a problem after logging in, it's likely a third party program or user account issue, create another user account and test again when your problem occurs. If you can't log in, there is a trick to create a new admin account at the command s boot.

I recently updated my mac book pro and some of the apps like itunes, and Mail have stop responding. Itunes will work fine till I connect my iphone 4. The moment I connect my Iphone it stops responding.

I recently updated my Mac book and Itunes and Mail have stop responding.
iTunes work fine till I connect my Iphone. The moment I connect my iphone it stops responding. I have reset my phone couple of times already and have re-install iTunes few times. Does anyone have any other suggestion on it?
Mail will never Quit. It will get my new mails or send them when I start it but after five mins or so it will stop responding at all.
Please let me know if anyone is facing similar problem.

You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.
