  • Upgrade to os x mavericks from Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63)

    I have been trying to upgrade to os x mavericks from Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63) and I meet the requirements but it will download and then pop up with the application could not be downloaded Hash mismatch

    Keep trying since that sounds like a server error. Be sure to do the following:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.

  • I have Quicken for mac 2005, can I upgrade to Maverick from OS X 10.6.8?

    I have Quicken for mac 2005, can I upgrade to Maverick from OS X 10.6.8 and not keep all data?

    I am new to the Apple Support community but am hopeful that you can help me!!  I have just bought a MacBook Air, migrated my stuff and found that my Quicken for Mac 2005 is no longer supported. (I still have my Quicken 2005 working on my Mac OS X - Version 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard?)  I saw a thread of communications back in 2012/13 where you helped a lot of people find ways to get their 2005 data into new versions - something about a $15 purchase.  However, I can't find those discussions again.  AND I don't know if they are 'relevant' because I'm now using the latest Yosemite, which someone just told me to upgrade for free....But this same person told me to switch to iBank, which others who have used Quicken for years didn't like.  I'd just as soon stay with Quicken but it seems like they have less support for Mac users.  Do you think I can move my data successfully still?  I live and work overseas and leave the USA on Monday and am trying to leave my older MacBook Air (the one with my 2005 Quicken on it) here....
    Thanks for any advice.

  • How can I deinstall Mavericks from my Mac book OS X Mountain Lion

    I did not expect so many changes  when I was upgrading to Maverick. I even cannot acess my i photo Library ( because it is on external harddisk and in the Mountain lion version?)
    iPhoto must be updated to use in Mavericks. Don't do this as it will update your iPhoto Library to the new version making it unusable on Mountain Lion, but if you start iPhoto while holding down the Option key, you can then tell iPhoto where your Library is located

  • I recently upgraded to Mavericks from Snow Leopard. Does Snow Leopard still exist on my Mac? If so, is it possible to restart under Snow Leopard in order to run PowerPC apps? If not, is there an OS available in 64 bit that supports PowerPC apps? Mav ***.

    I recently upgraded to Mavericks from Snow Leopard. Does Snow Leopard still exist on my Mac? If so, is it possible to restart under Snow Leopard in order to run PowerPC apps? If not, is there an OS available in 64 bit that supports PowerPC apps? Mav ***.

    The only reason I upgraded to Mavericks was because my Snow Leopard OS was 32 bit, which I was told would support only 4GB of RAM.
    That wasn't quite right. You can put in as much RAM as your Mac's hardware supports. The division is in the apps themselves. A 32 bit app can't use more than 4 GB or RAM. A 64 bit app can use much more.
    For example, as a 32 bit only version, Photoshop CS3 can't use more 4GB of RAM, no matter how much you actually have installed. CS4 or later can use all the RAM you want to throw at it.

  • Recently upgraded to Mavericks from 10.6.8. Now I can't access Segoe UI Light when in any Microsoft 2011 Office for Mac app.

    I recently upgraded to Mavericks from 10.6.8. Now I can't access Segoe UI Light when in any Microsoft 2011 Office for Mac app. When I open files using Segoe UI Light created before the OS upgrade, another font shows up on the page, yet checking the ribbon, it lists the font as Segoe UI Light. Only Light ( Regular, SemiLight, Semibold, Bold, etc. are all accessible) and only Microsoft apps (works fine in Adobe suite). The Segoe UI family is enabled in Font Book. This font is used extensively in company presentations and documents, so I absolutely need access to it. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Please tell me where I can download Mavericks 10.9.5....
    I have updated the OSX  on my iMAC (mid 2010 ) to YOSEMITE 10.10.1 and I am not liking it, and want to go back to Mavericks. Foolishly I did not make a backup prior to updating to yosemite.   :-(

  • What has been your experience upgrading from Mac OS X 10.6.0 to 10.7 or 10.8?  I read real horror stories about Maverick.

    What has been your experience upgrading from Mac OS X 10.6.8 ti 10.7 or 10.8?

    my story was indeed a horror story
    Mavericks is not an upgrade of previous OSes, but rather a port of iOS
    If you want your computer to function like an iPad, go for it.
    Snow Leopard on the other hand is a full-featured and stable OS - the best of them in my opinion.
    Mavericks makes it easier to port Pages and Numbers documents back and forth between your computer and your iPad - but this portability comes at the price of many, many lost features in both programs.  Over 100 lost features in Pages.  Don't know how many for Numbers, but because of lost functionality you risk losing data (if you used Footers and Headers, Page View, etc.).
    It is possible to use the older version of iWork under Mavericks, but it is a real pain as Mavericks keeps trying to default you to the newer versions.  Even accidentally opening with the newer version and not saving changes can cause the file identifier to be altered making it no longer open under the older version (I did find a way to force open)  Deleting the newer versions from your system results in Mavericks nagging you on a daily basis to reinstall them.  There is no option to say No, only the option to postpone for one day.
    the OS itself is much less customizable, I found it much harder to use with older eyesight because I couldn't highlight my scroll bars, or change the colour of certain files in a list, etc.  Anywhere I went to Preferences I was struck by how few of them there were - less than half as many as Snow Leopard, in some cases less than 25%.  Again, I had used those missing Preferences.
    Mavericks also takes away many of the abilities of iTunes to sync with your iPad or iPhone and forces you to use iCloud to do much of the synching.  If you don't want to use iCloud, or if you have confidentiality issues that prevent you from using it - you are out of luck. 
    In the end I found Mavericks unusable.  The process of reverting back to Snow Leopard required 5 hours with 2 different geniuses at the Apple Store, 2 deep wipes of my computer and fresh install of Snow Leopard.    And some loss of settings and data.
    If you choose to go for it, then make a bootable backup first.  Some sources suggest making 2 backups.
    There are people who are happy with Mavericks, but I am not one of them.
    Since I had my misadventure they have made some improvements to Mavericks, but not nearly enough of them to tempt me back.  For example, you cannot set your old Pages and Numbers documents to 'always open' with the older version of the software ... or rather you can set them to, but Mavericks will immediately revert it back to the new version.

    Is it wise to update from Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 to Maverick?

    Many millions have but read up on Mavericks and see if it suits you. We have no idea on your work practices, type of computer, etc. it's a personal choice and asking such a general question in a troubleshooting forum will not get you many positive replies. Google Mavericks OSXS and decide for yourself

  • Exchange Archive folder disappears from Mac Mail (Mavericks)

    My Exchange 2013 Archive mailbox folder keeps disappearing from Mac Mail (Mavericks). When it does, the mailbox/folder shows 0 messages and 0 size in the Account info box. To temporarily solve the problem, I disable the account, quit mail, and reenable the account. Then the Archive folder/mailbox reappears. This happens several times per day. By the way, the folder is still visible on Outlook Web Access and through the Outlook client. It is simply invisible to Mac Mail. Does anyone know how to solve that?

    Well, somehow, it disappeared after 10.8.2. and the following fixes which had no numbers.
    Mail startet and told me, that Mailbox is somehow adapted and now everything works fine.
    Strange....

  • Why can't I update to Mavericks from 10.6.8 on a Mac Pro Desktop Early 2008. It meets all requirements listed by Apple.

    Why can't I update to Mavericks from 10.6.8 on a Mac Pro Desktop Early 2008. It meets all requirements listed by Apple.

    I'm having the same issue with same error message "OS X Mavericks cannot be installed on this computer". I click the "INSTALL" button in the app store and I get the message. 
    I have a macbook pro 15 inch, 60 GB of free space, 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 3 GB of Ram (well really 4 but it can't see the 1 extra gig). Mac OS X version 10.7.5.   I read the install description and I meet the requirement.
    I have checked Launchpad for a stalled install (all 3 pages) and have checked if I have a time machine backup file on my root directory. No, I don't.
