Want to update my 10.6.8 to 10.7

Can I update my 10.6.8 to a 10.7 without purchasing an app?

That's not possible:
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?

  • My iPod isn't recognized by iTunes and I want to update it but I can't. What do I do?

    I plug in my iPod and it will charge but I have tried everything to get iTunes to recognize it and it won't. I want to update it to IOS 5 but I need the iTunes to connect with it.

  • I have Win7Pro64, tried to Un-Install Firefox control panel, no luck, tried running helper.exe from Uninstall folder and it says "Not a Valid Win-32 Application" What gives?? Just want to update to 3.6.4 and that didn't work either so I'm trying to remove

    Running Win7Pro64. Tried to update to 3.6.4 and it failed. It said to download the whole program so I did. Tried to install and says that the "License File" is missing. SO I go to un-install 3.6.3 myslef with Control Panel. All that did was remove Firefox as a listed program in control panel, all of it is still there in Explorer and it runs fine. So I go to use Helper.Exe under the Uninstall folder of Mozilla Firefox and when I click that, it says "Not a Valid Win-32 Application" What's up with that?? All I want to do is remove 3.6.3 so that I can clean install 3.6.4. I tried installing 3.6.4 two different ways with failures both times. I tried to remove 3.6.3 using two different ways, and that also failed both times.
    == This happened ==
    Just once or twice
    == I tried updating to 3.6.4. It failed both with the update and the full download, so tried to un-install 3.6.3 in control panel, then helper.exe with no luck.

    You don't want to update to 3.6.4, trust me. Stay with 3.6.3. If you need to download it again you can find it here:

  • Want to update data in a view based on multiple tables

    Hi
    I am facing a problem i want to update data in tables using a view. As that view is based on multiple tables so i am unable to update data. i came to know we can update table from view only if view is based on single table. so if anyone knows any alternative please let me know.
    Thanx
    Devinder

    Devinder,
    The table can be updated through a view based on multiple tables, if and only if the table is a "key preserved" table. Rather than explaining myself, i avoided the burden of typing by finding the material in Oracle Docs and pasting it for you :-)
    If you want a join view to be updatable, all of the following conditions must be
    true:
    1. The DML statement must affect only one table underlying the join.
    2. For an INSERT statement, the view must not be created WITH CHECK
    OPTION, and all columns into which values are inserted must come from a
    key-preserved table. A key-preserved table in one for which every primary
    key or unique key value in the base table is also unique in the join view.
    3. For an UPDATE statement, all columns updated must be extracted from a
    key-preserved table. If the view was created WITH CHECK OPTION, join
    columns and columns taken from tables that are referenced more than once
    in the view must be shielded from UPDATE.
    4. For a DELETE statement, the join can have one and only one key-preserved
    table. That table can appear more than once in the join, unless the view was
    created WITH CHECK OPTION.

  • I want to update to LION,on my Macbook Pro duo core, (october 2006) because Adobe CC needs at least that. I know my computer is old, but works perfect to me and I do not want to stay in Adobe CS6 since I have access to Adobe Cloud CC. Please help.

    I want to update to LION,on my Macbook Pro CORE 2 DUO, (october 2006) because Adobe CC needs at least that. I know my computer is old, but works perfect to me and I do not want to stay in Adobe CS6 since I have access to Adobe Cloud CC. Please help.
    I probably dont want to go to Mountain Lion either because I've heard that it will slow down my computer, So, Lion 10.7 will be the perfect OS X for me.
    I have ne newest release of Snow Leopard installed and works great.
    Thank you ALL for your help.

    you will be ok updating to the new software but there will be some trade off. i have 3 macbooks 2006 that are all running the latest versions.
    some of the trade off are
    1-2 less of battery life
    slow wake ups from sleep
    slower start up time about 30-40 seconds longer then what you have now
    the operating system will use high % of your processer while idealing
    these are not the things you want to hear about a new os compared to the old one but this is how it is even with a new macbook pro. but it's not the end of the world. just make sure you have at least more then 2GB of ram and have a good harddrive and you will be ok.

  • Why is my app in the app store is all need to purchase with visa and such other things? As a example i wanted to update the clash of clan apps, but it keep saying that i have to do a billing thing. Please help me.

    Im currently new to this iphone. Im using iphone 5s with a version iOS 7.1.1. My problem is what is wrong with my app store? It keep telling me to update my billing method. Was all apps in the app store is need to be purchase. Such as i wanted to update my clash of clan game. It keep telling me to fill in my billing method. I already fill in the billing method, but it say that "There is a billing problem with a previous purchase. Please update you payment method. " i don't know why he keep telling me this even though in my visa card got money. Please help me with this problem

    This is incorrect. "There is a billing problem with a previous purchase. Please update you payment method. " means you have made a purchase and iTunes/Apple hasn't received the finds for it yet. hence the "There is a billing problem with a previous purchase. Please update you payment method. ". This means you would need to either use an iTunes gift card to pay it off or another debit or credit card that is currently on the account.

    I would suggust:
    1 to create a big camera for i pads and ipods and iphones so we can put it in another ipad or ipod or iphone and it has a zoom lens
    2 when i downloaded photos and music from a computer to my ipad , i cant delete them now plese do the itunes like samsung becuz samsung have an easier way to download thing from computer
    I hope to help me with my poblome and fix it please !!??
    And i hope to take my suggusts and make me happy becouse apple it is cooler from samsung
    Apple the best
    H.M

    The iPad 1 can't run the newer operating systems. It'd be like trying to play a bluray disc in your 6 year old dvd player....it simply lacks the hardware to make the software run.
    No suggestion about the camera, but given that Apple's attitude seems to be to focus more on the more mobile devices for photography (the iPhone and Touch cameras got features, the iPad and mini didn't), that is highly unlikely. You can tell Apple what you want, but you'd probably be money ahead to get a digital camera.
    as to the photos, anything put on via iTunes has to come off via iTunes.Your main alternative would be to look for photo apps that offer file exchange that may give you more functionality.

  • I want to update my phone, but i purchased many apps and music on the phone. it won't let me authorize my computer so i cannot update. i don't want to deauthorize all my computers. how can i find out which 5 computers i have authorized?

    i want to update my phone, but i purchased many apps and music on the phone. it won't let me authorize my computer so i cannot update. i don't want to deauthorize all my computers. how can i find out which 5 computers i have authorized? also how can i update the software?

    This is a tedious solution, which is stupid!  And some users report an inability to reauthorize a computer after an "en masse” deauthorization.  I can’t believe Apple doesn’t provide a list or menu to find out which computers you’ve authorized! Obviously, APPLE knows (or else they couldn’t tell us how many computers we have authorized)--so why can’t they give us access to that information about our own computers??!!!
    And for an already-authorized computer with a hard drive that’s since been replaced and upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite, would it be recognized as a “new computer” and require authorization? Would its previous incarnation (i.e., with the old hard drive and OS) be considered a separate computer? Some users report they can’t authorize a computer after an OS upgrade because of that. Can’t believe we have to do such a bass-ackwards kludge!

  • When I want to update my app a different account comes up now.  Wierd.  It's the family plan owners id...why is this happening and how do I fix it?

    Upon  wanting to update some of my apps, I now get prompted to login with the owner of the family plans login.
    I have my own account attached to this phone.  Why is this now happening and how do I return it to update my apps with my login ID?

    Did you by chance accidentally purchase these app with the different account? 
    Because all apps are tied to the apple id that was used to purchase it.
    You can also check settings - appstore - apple id - if it isn't your id, log out and log in with your id.

  • My friend's apple ID shows up when I want to update my Apps. How can I get rid of it and see my own instead?

    On my iPhone I see my friend's Apple ID when I want to update my Apps and can't seem to login with my own. What's wrong? How can I get rid off my friend's ID and login with my own when I want to update or download apps? I went to Itunes Store in Setting and checked if my ID was still there, and it is so I have no idea what's wrong.

    Just used her MacBook to unlock my iPhone as I was away from home. So she backuped my phone and restored it to allow the unlock to work. That's all.
    I'm still not clear about what you mean about unlocking your phone. Normally, "unlocking" means entering the password if the phone is locked, which you should be able to do from the phone itself. If you want more help with this, you really need to take the time to furnish all the relevant details.
    I have a MacBook Pro, and yes when I connect my iPhone on it it shows up in the devices list.
    When you do that & click on the iPhone in the list, then click on the "Apps" tab at the top, do you see the apps you can't update listed there? If you click on the "Store" menu item does it show near the bottom that you are logged in with your own Apple ID?
    As wjosten said, it sounds like one way or another, the apps you cannot update were obtained using your friend's Apple ID. You need to delete them from your phone & try buying them again. If they were in fact paid for with your own Apple ID you won't have to pay again; otherwise you will.

  • I want to update my ios in ipad 2, message tells me to back up or lose. I don't have icloud and I can't get it without the newer version of ios. How can I backup without icloud?

    I want to update from ios 4.3 on my ipad 2. When I connect to itunes(newest version is installed) on pc, and attempt the update, I get a message to backup , or l will lose items purchased on the ipad. I don't have icloud yet, because when I try to add it to my ipad, I am told I need the newest version of ios. So it's a vicious cycle! I tried to buy itunes match, and I wasn't able to do that either! I have downloaded books, and songs on ipod that aren't able to be in my itunes library from CDs. What should I do and in which order, to protect my stuff from getting lost with the update?

    Backup with iTunes. If iTunes is asking you if you want to backup, say yes to that and it will backup your iPad. Have you ever synced with this computer before?
    My boilerplate response for anyone that wants to update the iOS.
    What you should do anytime that you update the device is to transfer purchases from the iPad into iTunes - File>Transfer Purchases - and you should backup the iPad as well. When you update the update the device, if something goes wrong, you can restore from the backup.
    However, iTunes should ask if you want to backup before you update, but just in case create the backup yourself before you update. The backup contains your app data and settings - along with other items - so make sure you backup first.
    If you have any other important files, you may want to transfer them to your computer as well, prior to the update.

  • After clicking "yes" to the question "do you want to update itunes now", i waited 2 hours and 15 minutes and it was still "loading".  i turned computer off thinking something was wrong.  now itunes won't open at all.  do i need to download itunes again?

    after clicking "yes" to the question "do you want to update itunes now", i waited 2 hours and 15 minutes and it was still "loading".  i turned computer off thinking something was wrong.  now itunes won't open at all.  do i need to download itunes again?

    Did you actually download the installer from Apple or did you use Software Update.  You can download the installer http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Maybe I'm old fashioned but I would consider repairing permissions first using Disk Utility because something caused this to go wrong the first time.  And of course make a backup of your whole library first.  It shouldn't happen but some have complained about their libraries being wiped out by iTunes updates.  Better safe...

  • HT4972 i want to update my software version to 6.1.3. but my c drive runs out of memory and i cannot upgrade it at the end, but having to delete the files and gain  more space for the computer to operate... plz help me :(

    i want to update my software version to 6.1.3.. but i have never updated this before and this is my first time.. im having 20 GB apps and music in my ipod. so when i click 'update and download' tab it starts downloading the new version and upgrading,... but afetr some time it says im having a very low memory in c drive and i would have to stop the upgrading...
    can i use my external hard to save this download and upgrading files without using my c drive? plz give me a solution as im only having only 7GB of space left in the C drive

    I would rather you delete/move other files to the external HD rather than downloading the update file to the external HD.
    First try going here and delete any update files to regain C drive space.
    IPSW file location for Mac and Windows
    Also, make sure that you have emptied your computer's recycle bin
    You can try the manual update/restore method included here and download the file to the external HD
