Upgrade and mac store help

i just bought my friends macbook off him and i would like to upgrade to mountain lion and download the Mac App store but i cant figure out either of these, help?

No the processor and graphics card are integrated into the logic board. It's mainly the video card. The Models 2,1 through 4,1 have video cards with non-upgradeable 32bit drivers. The model 5,1 Late 2008 and newer have at least the NVIDIA GeForce 9400M with 64bit drivers. Mountain Lion requires 64bit native drivers. Mountain Lion no longer supports Intel's GMA 950 or GMA X3100 graphics processors.
While Lion used some 32 bit and a lot of 64 bit code, Mountain Lion is pure 64 bit, which excludes more systems than Lion did. It's not something you can add memory to, for example, as it involves the base architecture.

  • Intel Binary and Mac Store codesign

    I have a stub project that consists of a few xtras and the following bit of movie script code:
    on startMovie
      _player.searchPathList = [the applicationPath & the applicationName & ":Contents:Resources:"]
      _player.searchPathList.add(the applicationPath & the applicationName & ":Contents:Resources:Branding:")
      _player.searchPathList.add(the applicationPath & the applicationName & ":Contents:Resources:Zoomups:")
      _movie.go(1, "main")
    end
    This stub is how we've always done our Mac builds, just adding some files to the .app in the Contents/Resources folder, from a windows build, and it's all good.  Then the Mac App Store came about and this recent Director update allowing us to build Intel-only binaries for the store.  The problem arises during the codesign step for the Mac Store.  If I build my stub as Universal Binary, the codesign process is fine, and we can submit the app fine, but of course it's rejected because of the universal binary.  When I build the stub as Intel Binary, the codesign process fails with the error:
    codesign_allocate: the __LINKEDIT segment does not cover the end of the file (can't be processed) in: (*path to the .app*) object file format unrecognized, invalid, or unsuitable  ?
    Has anyone figured a way around this?  I'm stuck at this point.

    Did you figure this out?  I wonder if I can apply the same solution for an AIR project

  • Home sharing not working between mac and pc, but it is fine between mac and mac. Help!!!

    Good Evening Dear Gurus,
    Hi, I am writing this to ask for help regarding home sharing. Yes I do know they are several threads out there that already explains or rather given solution on how to tackle this problem. BUT the my problem is rather different. I am no computer expert myself, so here is the problem, apparently MY MAC can home share with another MAC, but both of this MAC cannot home share with the PC.
    Does anyone encounter this kind of problem before? Can anyone help a poor guy out? Thanks in advance. love to hear from the community soon!
    Thanks!

    Sharing Stopped working again over night.
    I went to Apple Support Artical TS2972
    As soon as I did this Home Sharing started working
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2972
    Firewall Section
    5. Check Firewall Settings
    If you have a firewall enabled in your router or computer, make sure that the firewall is not blocking communication between your computers. Home Sharing uses TCP port 3689 and UDP port 5353 to communicate with shared iTunes libraries.
    In addition, Apple TV and Mac computers will use port 123 to set the time automatically. Incorrect date and time on either the computer or Apple TV can cause errors for Home Sharing and connections in general.
    If you are unsure whether your router has a firewall or the required ports open, test additional devices or another network to help isolate the issue. If the devices tested work on another home network, it is your router or network configuration.
    For Mac OS X, you don't have to edit the port addresses, but make sure the firewall in Apple () menu > System Preferences > Security > Firewall are not set to:
    Block all incoming connections
    Allow only essential services
    If you use another security/firewall software on your computer or router, follow this article or contact the manufacturer or check the documentation on how to open TCP ports 123 and 3689 as well as UDP ports 123 and 5353.
    It made sense to me, but its still puzzling me after restarting a router would (in my first attempt) resolve the issue for a day.  This this time I applied the port forwarding TCP and UDP ports and saved the settings in the DLink DIR-655 and both my iPad2 and iPhone 3GS were now again finding the share. My ATV2 is also now accepting the Share.
    Tommorrow will be the true test.

  • Upgraded and lost store

    ever since i installed new itunes 8 upgrade i cannot access store. any suggestions? have uninstalled and than reinstalled but no go. help please.

    Along these same lines. I cannot connect to the store. When I do a diagnostic through itunes it says "secure link to itunes failed" and then gives me the following to try: 1. Click start and choose Run
    2. Type CMD and click Okay
    3. After the DOS prompt type: ipconfig /flushdns and press ENTER(make sure you leave a single space after "ipconfig")
    I have tried this several times and it does not work. Does anyone have suggestions?

  • Scanner and Mac Pro help, please!

    I can't get my HP officejet 6500 Scanner to work with my Mac Pro

    I don't see why not. My MacBook Pro runs it like a dream, and the hardware in the MacBook is pretty much identical with the exception of the GPU. And Logic certainly doesn't do much 3D rendering.
    Besides, I've seen numerous reports on various Logic forums that it does in fact run great on the MacBook.
    Back to the original question -- the 1.83 should do fine. I've yet to get close to maxing out my 2.0 in Logic. However, in my opinion it would be worth the upgrade to the 2.0ghz model. The one thing that really does matter with Logic is the CPU (and memory, but you already mentioned upgrading that).

  • TS3899 a friend sent me an email from her suddenlink email address and now all of her email is coming to my IPhone and MAC.  Help, how can i stop these unwanted emails from her bank, doctors, catalogs, etc.?

    After the last IOS upgrade, a freind sent me an email from her Suddenlink account.  Now I get a duplicate of everuy email she receives.  This is driving me crazy plus it is an invasion of her privacy for me to be receiving all her facebook responses, banking info, medical info, catalogs, etc.  I don't want the onslaught of all this email.  What do I need to do to correct this?  When I receive the emails, they have her address, not mine.  If I send her a new email at her Suddenlink address, it comes to me and to her.  Please help, this is driving me crazy.
    Thanks

    I'm pretty sure that the solution is in the settings of her email

  • Connecting an imac and mac pro help

    Hi,
    I'm looking to buy an 8 core Mac Pro and an iMac 27", what I'd like to do is connect them so I can use the iMac for the display and also join the processors and ram to run as one computer. I will be using this computer for Logic Pro and Ableton.
    Is this at all possible?
    Thanks Jeff

    The early 27" iMac could be connected to a Mac Pro's Mini DisplayPort for use as an external display
    <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3924#>
    but the iMac's processor and RAM would not be available for any computing.
    The current 27" iMac uses Thunderbolt, so will not work with a Mac Pro.

    That is because that sync ability (for contacts and calendars) has been removed. Use iCloud instead.

    Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard installation system requirements
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24950
    Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753).
    If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:
    MB427Z/A  Leopard 10.5.1 install DVD
    MB576Z/A  Leopard 10.5.4 install DVD
    MB021Z/A  Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (single user)

    The DVD should look like this
    Caution - Leopard does not support classic mode. So, if you currently open OS 9 apps in classic mode, you won't be able to do this if you upgrade to Leopard.

    If you can... you need to Upgrade your OS X to 10.6.8
    It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
    Do this first...
    Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
    Snow Leopard Tech Specs  >  http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    If so... Purchase a Snow Leopard Install Disc...
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard and iTunes.
    Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...

  • Since upgrading my Mac OS 10.9 and Mavericks, I am unable to open App Store and other problems.

    My computer has gone haywire since upgrading to Mac OS 10.9 and adding Mavericks. Mail was a big problem with my not being able to read messages, but now there has been a mail upgrade to solve that. However, still cannot open App Store from my Dock and cannot open Software Update from the apple menu. Lots of other screwy things going on and Apple seems of no help to try and resolve these issues. Anyone with similiar problems or issues?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in 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, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

    You have a 13" Early or Mid 2009 MacBook. Either one can run OS X Mavericks with enough RAM, 2 GB minimum. But first you will need to update to OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8 so that you have the Mac App Store installed on your MacBook
    Buy this from apple;
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Then download and update with this update combo;
    OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8 v1.1 update combo
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    After this you will have the Mac App Store on your MacBook and you should be able to download and install OS X Mavericks for free!
