Upgrading and changing operating system

Hi,
I want to make a change to a Apple Mac in a few months. I also want to upgrade my Lightroom 2.7 to 3.0. What is the best I can do:
First upgrade Lightroom in my Windows systeem and then change my operating system.
First change operating system and then upgrade.
Can someone tell me which option is most save? I don't want the import of my image catalog to go wrong.
Thanks for your replies.
Regards,
Ron

Probably, simply check the supported models below:
Supported
Models
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
and if you have one the these machines open the Mac App store and for $20.00 you can upgrade to Mountain Lion.

Changed operating system mid project in Final Cut Pro

I was working on a Final Cut project and changed operating systems from Snow leopard to Mavericks in mid project. I have since changed to Mountain Lion as many of my programs were not comparable to run with Mavericks. My FCP project takes ages to render and auto saves every minute even though I have set it to save less often. Are these problems the result of changing systems. I only had a sense this was so after opening an old project and working on it and it running smoothly with fast render etc.
any help appreciated
Catherine.

Do a test. With the range tool make a very short range selection of your project and Share>DVD. In the export dialoge >Settings, choose Hard Drive for Output Device. Click on the Add button for menu background. When the next window appears, hit cancel. See if it exports and burns a disk image, If it does, try the complete project.
BTW, is your project length 79 minutes or 79 seconds?

After upgrading the new operating system on my Droid Razr M it seems some useful features no longer work such as when typing a message the text anticipates the next word and when trying to delete individual messages from a contact, you can no longer tap and hold to select multiple message you have to delete them individually or the entire thread. Is there a way to get these back?

Well, that's kind of embarrassing. And I honestly thought I paid attention to that... It works perfectly now, thank you so much!
As expected, cdm-git also works fine since DMs only work in the root mode as of now.
Just for the record, both type commands output "/usr/bin/startx" and pacman -Q gives "systemd 215-4".

I have Adobe Photoshop CS4 and have just upgraded my Mac operating system to Yosemite with the newest version of Java 2014 running. When I try to access Photoshop from Bridge or directly open it asks for a Legacy Version of Java 6. As I am a pensioner I cannot afford an upgrade does anyone know of a work-around for this problem?

Hi Daddyfred,
CS4 Photoshop has not been tested on Yosemite. But still you can try the Java 6 update using the below link.

I upgrades my mac operating system to OSX 10.9.4 and now my Dreamweaver CS5 won't work, it just quits unexpectedly. please help.

Remove preferences on Mac OS
Quit Dreamweaver.
In the Finder, navigate to /Users/Your User Name/Library/Application Support/Adobe.
Rename the Dreamweaver preferences folder:
Dreamweaver CS5: Rename the Dreamweaver CS5 folder to, for example, Old Dreamweaver CS5.
Navigate to /Users/Your User Name/Library/Preferences.
Rename the Dreamweaver preferences file:
Dreamweaver CS5: Rename the Adobe Dreamweaver CS5 Prefs file to, for example, Old Adobe Dreamweaver CS5 Prefs.
Try to re-create problem
After you have removed your existing preferences, restart Dreamweaver. The application creates new preferences files, folders, and registry entries, as applicable, using the default settings.
Then try to re-create the problem that you had before.
If the problem was resolved, then damaged preferences was the cause.
If the problem persists, then the preferences are not the cause and you can replace the original preferences.
To replace the original preferences:
Quit dreamweaver.
Delete the new preferences folder and restore the original name of the previous folder.

Will i lose all my information if i change operating systems

Will I lose all my personal information, documents, music, movies, and apps, if I change operating systems?

Normally no. But you should always have a backup just in case disaster strikes or a meteor.

My machine had originally been a clone of another Mac. Not it looks like a brand new computer.
Possibly there is something in system preferences to change? I turned off Firewall and allow downloads from all parties.
Thank You for you help!

150:30 means the licensing failed. Photoshop can't be moved like other programs from another drive or from backup.
I would suggest a reinstall to fix it. Anytime you move Photoshop from from drive to another, it breaks licensing. A install is the quickest way. to fix it.
When you are done with the install, apply all CS4 updates. Product updates

Changed operating systems

I changed operating systems from WIndows 2000 to Windows XP. I redownloaded and installed the drivers for my webcam. When iopen it, it says that the camera may be used by something else. Why won't it work?

Which webcam do you have? Perhaps you can check out the download pages and download the latest driver for your webcam.

I backed up my iphone 4 and did an upgrade and changed my Apple ID and password but my phone has not recognised the new ID to upgrade my apps via the iphone. How do I get rid of the old Apple ID when it comes to upgrading apps.
I have been into setting>store and signed out and signed back in and it still asks for old ID and password.

Everything you've had up to now has been tied to your old Apple ID. You cannot switch it over to a new Apple ID. You should contact iTunes support to help you with this:

Is there any way that I can get back my iPhoto? After having hard disk replaced (no backup) and the operating system has been updated to Lion (no disc) I am wondering if iPhoto can be reinstalled with my Leopard discs?

As Niel pointed out, yes. The disk probably will look like the MBP disk (4) in this screenshot;

HT4623 i have 4s and the operating system is iOS 5.1.1 got the update message of iOS 6. if update the iOS 6, other functions will work unchanging?

I have apple 4s and the operating system is iOS 5.1.1 got the update message of iOS 6. if update the iOS 6, other functions will work unchanging?

What other functions?
There have been some wifi related issues reported with the 4S being updated to IOS 6. There is no turning back once you update so keep that in mind.
I recommend updating via iTunes so that you make a backup of all your data. You may want to make an iCloud backup as well.
Other than that, I don't understand what other functions you are concerned about?

I am unable to sync my iPad after upgrading to latest operating system. iTunes can't see my iPad when attached to PC. Anyone else having this problem?

Hi Drbobdog, there shouldn't be a compatibility with Android OS 2.2.3. There may be a compatability with the device itself.
Here are the system requirements:

I hope this helps.

That's because apps are DRM protected & tied to the account used to originally obtain them. They cannot be transferred to another iTunes account. You can contact iTunes support, explain the situation, and request they add these apps to the download queue of your new account:
