Upgraded from SL to ML apps still on SL version

After upgrading from SL 10.6.8 to ML 10.8.4, many of the apps and utilities are inaccessible. Disk utility, activity monitor, messages, calendar, address book, dictionary, mail, QuickTime, and so on have a grey circle with a back slash over them. Some apps do work about 12 are in the condition described. When I click on an app with a grey circle and slash a message pops up stating that this version of the app can't be used with this version of OSX. Have a time machine backup so rollback to SL is possible. Thanks for the help.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You don't need to go back to Snow Leopard but you have to reinstall Mountain Lion. To do this, hold Command and R keys while your computer is starting and follow the steps to reinstall Mountain Lion.
Lion and Mountain Lion include OS X Recovery to reinstall Mac OS X and do other operations. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718 You won't lose anything after reinstalling Mountain Lion

    Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You must purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    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. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the 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.
           6. Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    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.
         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
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 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 Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           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)
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
             7. Xserve (Early 2009)
         Are my applications compatible?

  • It´s possible to upgrade from the latest mavericks beta to the final version?

    Hi all. I´m thinking in becoming a developper because  I want to install mavericks beta on my macbook pro (I can´t wait for the battery and ram upgrades). But i have a question before that. It´s posible to upgrade from the latest mavericks beta to the final version? , or Ihave to restore to mavericks final version and then use a time machine Backup?
    Thanks in advance.
    Sorry for english

    No one who knows can say, because Mavericks is not released yet.
    To get a Free copy that can be updated, you need to have a paid developer membership, at a minimum cost of at least US$100/ annually. (This may also include one Developer Tech Support incident and other benefits.)
    Apple has lowered the cost of new versions of Mac OS X to about US$20. If Mavericks is released at about that price, buying a legitimate copy instead of depending on a quirky developer version that cannot be updated should not be a difficult decision.

  • Unity Connection Upgrade from 8.6.2 to 9.1 latest version

    Hi,
    Am planning to Upgrade my CUC(Unity Connection) from 8.6.2 to 9.1 latest version, having my Call manager in the same version 8.6.2. I will upgrade my Call Manager from 8.6.2 to 9.X later.
    Hope i can upgrade my CUC first.
    I need some info like,
    1) Am not getting the image to download which can upgrade from 8.6.2 to 9.1 latest version directly. Should i have to move to 9.0 first and then to 9.1 ??
    2) Is their any pre cautions need to be taken care/ well known issues during the upgrade.
    3) Also, hope licensing get migrated automatically (no need to have extra efforts)
    4) Advantages of Moving to 9.x wrt to features compared to 8.6.
    Pls suggest.
    Thanks

  • Upgrading from cisco LMS 3.0 to a latest version

    Hello,
    Upgrading from cisco LMS 3.0 to a higher version.
    Whatdoes it require?.
    What is the current version?
    What do we need for upgrading?
    Are there specific codes or new need to buy new products?
    In case of buying new products, which are the configurations?

    H Malik,
    You are correct! Latest version is Cisco prime LMS 4.2. There is no direct upgrade from LMS 3.x to LMS 4.x.
    The procedure is simple:
    Take backup orf old LMS --> Un-install (if same machine)--> Install new LMS --> Restore backup to get old data.
    You would need to purchase new license for it.Cisco Prime LMS is now part of the Cisco Prime Infrastructure bundle and is not orderable separately. Cisco Prime Infrastructure bundle follows a size-based incremental licensing model. Device licenses can be combined and added when applied to a single server installation instance. Customers have the option of adding incremental licenses for additional devices as their network grows.Refer to the Cisco Prime Infrastructure Ordering Guide located at http://www.cisco.com/go/primeinfrastructure for the exact part number that matches your requirement and placing the order.
    Currently even SmartNet or SAS contracts does not cover major upgrades from LMS 2.x and 3.x; an upgrade part number will need to be purchased to move to Cisco Prime LMS 4.2. These upgrade part numbers reflect a significant discount to protect customers' investment in the Cisco Prime product line.
    The data migration process will vary depending on the LMS version from which the data need to be migrated. Migrating data to LMS 4.2:
    • LMS 4.2 supports local upgrade or direct inline upgrade only from LMS 4.0.1 and LMS 4.1.
    • LMS 4.0 customers are encouraged to install LMS 4.0.1 before doing inline upgrade to LMS 4.2.
    • LMS 3.2 and LMS 3.2 Service Pack 1 customers can do a remote upgrade through the LMS backup and restore mechanism.
    • LMS 3.1, LMS 3.0, LMS 3.0 December 2007 Update, LMS 2.6, and LMS 2.6 Service Pack 1 customers need to do a remote upgrade to LMS 4.0.1 and then upgrade to LMS 4.2.

  • Upgrading from cd install to app store for iwork

    I'm currently at snow leopard, but preparing to updated to Mavericks (which I still have waiting to update on my MBP). I have the cd installed version of iwork, but software update, after a certain version, stopped offering updates. I know iwork went to the app store instead. Will my 3 iwork apps be recognized by the app store update process after I update to Mavericks, or will I have to delete and repurchase through the Mac App store? Just trying to get a heads up

    If you previously downloaded Mavericks from the OS X App Store, you will be able to download it again. If not, it is gone, and no longer available — and you will either need to upgrade to Yosemite, or purchase Mountain Lion from the Apple Online Store. If you choose Yosemite, it is advisable on older hardware that you strongly consider 8GB of RAM. Do a total system backup before you update the OS.
    You could also install the newer OS X alongside Snow Leopard in its own partition, and give yourself a dual-boot machine.
    Since the iWork '09 DVD installs application dependent Frameworks (libraries) into the operating system, you should assume that these may get purged during any operating system update. I would recommend reinstallation from the iWork '09 DVD, followed by this Apple iWork 9.3 updater, which brings these applications to their last revision. If you install Mountain Lion, the OS X App Store will tell you that new versions of Pages, Numbers, and Keynote are available, but not compatible with Mountain Lion, it may then offer to update your iWork '09 applications. If not, then the preceding advice.
    The iWork '09 applications (well Pages anyway) sees the iCloud Drive in Yosemite. The Share menu item, Send via Mail, is now inoperable.

  • I've tried upgrading from FCP 10.0.1 to the newest version and I cannot do it. It does not pop up on the App Store. Is this an upgrade or do I have to buy it again?

    I've been trying to export my videos after installing the Mavericks upgrade and FCP does not let me. On one of the forums I was told to upgrade to FCP 10.6.
    Is this a free upgrade or do I have to buy the newest version again?

    The current version is 10.0.9. The update to 10.0.9 from 10.0.1 is free. Log in to the App Store *with the same Apple ID used to buy the application* and click on "Updates".

  • If I upgrade from 3.6, can I still use Skype?

    I have had reminders to upgrade from 3.6 but understand from a recent article in Computeractive magazine that I cannot continue to use Skype with later upgrades. Will you please let me have your comments. I am using Vista 32 system.
    Thank you

    My opinion is to get more RAM. I found 512MB to be too little for Firefox '''3''', and I rarely have multiple windows open and rarely more that 10 tabs open.
    Try Firefox Portable first, and then if the Portable works to your satisfaction think about about upgrading to 8.0. Firefox Portable won't mess with your current Firefox installation, it installs completely separate. <br />

    As far as Firefox 3.6 goes, it will probably be around for another 5 months or so as a currently supported version, as far as security updates are concerned.

  • CUE Upgrade from 8.6.1 to 8.6.7 version

    Hi,
    I am currenty running CUE (NME-CUE) version 8.6.1 on router 2851, I want to upgrade to version 8.6.7 (provide support CUCM 9.1).
    can somebody tell me In what case is used command "software install clean" and in what case is used command "software install upgrade"?
    Apprecaite your help.
    Best regards,
    Tan

    Hi Tan,
    can somebody tell me In what case is used command "software install   clean" and in what case is used command "software install upgrade"?
    A "software install  clean" is used when you would need to do a fresh install, while the
    "software install upgrade" would be used for upgrading from 8.6.1 to 8.6.7
    As per document and command reference:
    Several processes are available for upgrading Cisco Unity Express  software. Choosing a process depends on the type of upgrade required.
    •Upgrade installation—Upgrade using the online installer with the software install upgrade command. This process is available for upgrading from the previous  software release to the current one, such as upgrading from 2.1.3 to  2.2.
    Using this process, the system remains operational while the new  software files are downloaded in the background. Only an FTP server is  required. See "Upgrading the Previous Software Image" for more details.
    •Clean installation—Upgrade using the online installer with the software install clean command. This installation process is available for upgrading licenses  and for upgrading software releases later than 2.0 to the current one.
    Using this process, the system remains operational while the new  software files are downloaded in the background. For a new license, you  must back up and restore configuration files; for a new software image,  you must back up and restore both configuration and data files. Only an  FTP server is required. See "Upgrading to a New License" or "Installing a New Software Image" for more details.
    •Clean installation with the boot helper—Upgrade using the boot helper with the software install clean command. This clean installation process is available for upgrading  licenses, upgrading software releases prior to 2.0.1 to the current  release, and when the other upgrade processes are unsuccessful.
    Using this process, the system must be offline while the new software  files are downloaded. This installation erases and repartitions the disk  before loading the new files on the disk. You must back up and restore  your configuration and data files. Both an FTP and a TFTP server are  required. See "Installing a Software Image Using Boot Helper".
    Kindly rate the post accordingly.
    Regards,
    Kevin

  • Upgrade from premiere elements11 and photoshop elements 11 to version 12

    Hello i think I buy te upgrade from the packket premiere elements 11 and photoshop elements 11 to version 12 of this to produkts, when I do that create the upgrade then  new icons on your desctop screen or overwright the upgrade the version 11 total, must I remove version 11 before or can I do that after the upgrade to version 12.
    Thanks

    Vanelli014
    I do not believe that you mentioned what computer operating system you are using for your Premiere Elements 11 and 12.
    Although Photoshop Elements 12 may be lacking some of your Photoshop Elements 11 features, Premiere Elements 11 and 12 are essentially the same,  but 12 does give a few additional features which may or may not be necessary for your present or planned workflows.
    Photoshop Elements/Premiere Elements 11 and 12 perform the same and well for me on Windows 7 64 bit. I cannot say the same specifically for Premiere Elements 12 on Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit. Premiere Elements 11 is performing fine on this same Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit where Premiere Elements 12 is not.
    Just beware of any intergration perks that you might lose if you decide to pick and choose the best by mixing the combos, that is Photoshop Elements 11 with Premiere Elements 12 or Photoshop Elements 12 with Premiere Elements 11.
    Bottom line: I would ask you to consider leaving the both versions installed until you decide what programming is in the best interest of your workflows. Key...use one Premiere Elements program at a time.
    We will be looking forward to learning of your progress.

  • UPGRADING FROM OS 3.0, BETA 5, TO FULL VERSION GS 3.0 SEED

    The phone I am going to sell when my new on arrives in the mail, currently has OS 3.0, Beta version 5, installed on it. Can anyone tell me how to upgrade from Beta version 5, to the full version of 3.0 GS seed right now today? I saw it on here I think but can't refind it. Thanks! J

    Why not just wait until Wednesday and do the 3.0 update when it is released in iTunes?
    If you can't wait til then, log in to developer.apple.com and download the GM.

  • Can I upgrade from IOS 5 to 6 still? Or have to go to 7?

    I have a 4S with IOS 5.x on it still.  Can I upgrade to 6.1.3 (have the IPSW downloaded in Itunes)?  Or will Apple refuse it and force me to 7?

    Just as a data point, I just upgraded my 4s to IOS7. The principle problem I had was that the Podcast app on IOS7 is really shakey. For me it killed itself after 10 seconds. They troubleshot it for me over the phone and it works now, but it's not hard to crash. Otherwise, it works well with good speed. Just in case you have to go to 7.
    If you do, I would uninstall the podcast app, turn automatic update of podcasts from iTunes off, and if you're not already, use over the air podcast update. Then do the upgrade and then reinstall the Podcast App. Should work then. If not call Apple.

  • Upgrade from CS6 to CC apps?

    I have been a Creative Cloud member for some time and curently have 32-bit and 64-bit installations of many of the CS6 apps. Should I upgrade these to the CC versions? Is there any harm in removing the old CS6 versions? Are the CC apps all 64-bit or will I once again be installing both 32-bit and 64-bit versions when I select to install CC apps.

    According to the FAQ:
    Which desktop applications in Creative Cloud require 64-bit operating systems? 
    With the new CC apps, most of the pro video and audio applications now require 64-bit operating systems to run. These native 64-bit applications include Adobe Premiere® Pro CC, Adobe Audition® CC, After Effects® CC, Prelude® CC, and SpeedGrade® CC. Flash Professional CC, Photoshop CC and Lightroom® also require 64-bit on Mac OS.
    More in: http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html
    Photoshop CC still has 32 and 64 bits versions. Since I use a 64bits OS, I usually just ignore this requirement.
    With a Cloud subscription you still have access to the CS6 versions, if needed.
