What is the cheapest Mac I can buy, to successfully use SDK to develop iPad apps
Looking for advice on purchasing an inexpensive -- maybe refurbished -- Mac for the primary purpose of developing iPad apps...
What is the cheapest version that would be adequate?
Thx.
If the stock of refurb'd minis is down, a new one is still a tremendous bargain.
LCDs it will support and 3rd party ram are dirt cheap right now...

Keep in mind that you will need a full retail version, not an upgrade version. -
What is the cheapest Mac Laptop I can buy?
I am looking for the cheapest Apple Laptop.
I don't want like the really old models, I want a newer model, like the Macbook Air.
I don't know how many variations there are but how much is the cheapest macbook, brand new condition.You can save quite a bit of money by buying a refurbished MacBook Pro or Air from Apple. They come with the full year warranty and you can buy Apple Care for them. http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals/mac

is iphone5 4g is suitable to use it in egypt
The American Verizon iPhone 5's come unlocked out of the box, you must know someone that has a Verizon account previously in order to purchase the phone full price $649-$700 USD depending which retailer you go to and size (16GB 32GB 64GB). Purchase the phone, transfer it to existing account, then transfer it back to the original phone. If this is too much of a hassle to go through I'd say wait it out until the factory unlocked versions come out. But since I use T-Mobile USA I was fortunate enough to use a buddy of mines account for a couple of hours and working just fine on T-Mobile. Hope this helped!

What is the latest Mac running 10.8
I am planning to buy a new iMac. I understand that the iMacs Apple is selling now will not run 10.8. While I can afford to buy a new iMac I can't affordto buy and relearn all the key software which will not run on Maverics. I recently went through that when updating to 10.8 after waiting years for software to become compatible.
What is the latest iMacs I can buy that will run 10.8?If it can run Mountain Lion then it can run Mavericks, so that is what will be installed unless you buy a used one. The most recent iMac will run a special build of 10.8.5. 10.8.5 retail should work on all eligible iMacs which are the same models that can also run Mavericks.
Upgrading to Mavericks
You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Mavericks
To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free. The file is quite large, over 5 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 Mavericks- System Requirements
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?

What is the latest Mac OS that will run Acrobat 6
What is the latest Mac OS that will run Acrobat 6
Ok, it's a PPC app. That means it needs Rosetta. Rosetta was gone by Mac OS 10.7, so that is out of the question.
Rosetta is an option you can install in 10.6. So it may be possible in that system.
Acrobat 7 listed as its official requirements "10.2.8 or 10.3" but it still runs as of 10.5, from my testing.
Acrobat 6, though is from the early days of Mac OS X. (Acrobat 5 was released for Mac OS 9), In 2003, we were on Mac OS 10.3.
It might run in later systems, I suspect the first thing to fail would be the Adobe PDF printer driver. -

What is the most RAM I can put in mac book pro 15 inch 2.16(2006)?
What is the most RAM I can put in mac book pro 15 inch 2.16(2006)?
Depends. There were two version of the MBP that shipped in 2006 with different max RAM. The quickest way to see which is yours is to use System Profiler to get your Mac's "Model Identifier."
Do "About this Mac" from the Apple menu and, in the resulting window, click "More Info..." That launches System Profler for you.
The answer is in the first screen of Profiler that comes up--"Hardware Overview." Note the second line in this example:
If the Model Identifier says "MacBookPro1,X" you are limited to 2G RAM. Period.
If the Model Identifier says "MacBookPro2,X" you can install two, 2G modules for an installed total of 4G RAM, but the logic board can only access 3.2G of it. That becomes your "max RAM.
Hope this helps,

Whenever I click on iTunes store, it just takes me to this huge add to download the new version of iTunes. I have tried clicking the download box and downloading it, but it still will not let me past the add so I can buy music. What gives
this is a follow up from the profane post earlier....
i have done this twice in two other posts..
here is my problem.. i started off trying to update itunes, it failed twice and said i needed to install manually via tools.
the only place to get to tools is the pop up box that appears when you click check for updates.. if there is an available update then the pop up shows up with the quick time and itunes files to download. so i finally figured that out. i clicked on tools and manual update, four files were saved to a file. Apple mobile device support, another one similar, itunes, and another one i cant remember. I only downloaded the itunes file seeing as though thats all i needed to accomplish in the first place.
so then i restarted my computer bc you need to reboot and then reopen itunes for update to take effect. once i have itunes back open i plugged in my new 5s which i am trying to sync to my computer to get all my stuff back bc i lost my previous phone over the weekend.. once i plugged the phone in an error stating i needed to unistall the apple mobile device support and itunes and then reinstall. well i dont know where those files were originally stored on my computer AND since my itunes was updated, just not the other 3 associated files, when i click check for updates it says its up to date and then pop up containing the quick time and itunes does not pop up thus i cant get back to the tools tab to manually save the 4 files again.
so i was just going to uninstall itunes all together and then i thought well what happens if it erases all my photos apps songs etc... which would defeat the whole purpose in the first place of me trying to sync my new phone to get all my stuff back.
so i literally have no idea what to do at this point.. if you have read this you are probably just as confused as me... -

What is the latest MAC OSX that my Macbook 2,1 can support?
What is the latest MAC OSX that my Macbook 2,1 can support? It came with 10.4.11Lion.
I am upgrading my harddrive and would love to install the most current OS that I possibly can.
I also have a Macbook 3,1 with OSX 10.5.8 Leopard that I want to do the same with. If they can both run the same OSX that would be helpful too.
Thanks a MILLION!Both of those MacBooks can run up to 10.7 Lion. (10.4.11 is Tiger) It's the RAM that you'll need to upgrade.
First you'll need to upgrade to 10.6 Snow Leopard. The 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD is in the Apple online store. You can get it for $19.99. After you’ve installed that then download the 10.6.8 combo updater to finish it off. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399 You will need to be running 10.6.8 to access the App Store to order Lion, http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
System Requirements for 10.6:
Mac computer with an Intel processor
1GB of memory
5GB of available disk space
DVD drive for installation
Some features require a compatible internet service provider: fees may apply.
You can put two 2gb RAM sticks in your model 2,1 but it can only use 3,3gb. This is a hardware limitation and cannot be changed.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3_GB_barrier
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/faq/macbook-pro-core-2-duo-3-g b-memory-limitation-details.html
OWC tests have found that there is a slight speed increase with having two 2gb sticks in rather than one 1gb and one 2gb. Your model is in the gray lines at the bottom of the graph. http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/Memory_Benchmark/Apple_MacBook/
You can upgrade from 10.4 straight to 10.6 with no problems as long as you have at least 1gb of RAM. Any program that runs under 10.4 should run under10.6. See this list for third party programs compatibility with 10.6: http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/ You might have to upgrade some drivers for printers, etc.... And you will have to install Rosetta if you have any Power PC applications
http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/snow_leopard_installing_rosetta/
I recently upgraded an older MacBook (Early 2006 model 1,1) straight from 10.4 to 10.6.
Once you are at 10.6.8 Lion is still available from Apple. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store. Or go to http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6106Z/A/os-x-lion and purchase it there. The price is $19.99.
You must have at least a Late 2006 model 2,1 MacBook.
Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications. -
What is the latest Mac OS X that I can run on my 2.33 GHZ Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro?
My MBP was running the fan almost constantly and otherwise acting odd so I decided to just refresh the installation from scratch. At that time I was running Lion 10.7.5. Before rebuilding everything with that version I want to make sure running Lion on this machine isn't contributing to my issue.
What is the latest Mac OS X that I can run on my 2.33 GHZ Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro?
I have every OS release since the original purchase so I can rebuild on the one that's most stable on this laptop.You can run Mt. Lion if you so wish:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
If you want the most efficient OS, I would suggest Snow Leopard.
However I suggest doing some investigation prior to installing a new OS. First do a SMC reset:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964
Also run an Apple Hardware Test. Use the #2 disk on your original install disk.
If there is no improvement, post back.

What is the latest OS I can use with a mac G5 with a dual 2.3 Ghz PowerPC G5 processor?
What is the latest OS I can use with a mac G5 with a dual 2.3 Ghz PowerPC G5 processor? Everything on my computer has been running so slowly in the last few weeks. Have I finally outgrown OS 10.4.11? Would there be some other problem that would sudden make all my speed take a nose dive? I have 8.5 gigs of RAM... Please advise!
Thanks! MatthewEverything on my computer has been running so slowly in the last few weeks.
First open Console in Applications>Utilities, see if you have reapeating messages.
How much Free Space do you have on the Hard Drive?
At this point I think you should get Applejack...
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 6 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
Trash old Log files.
First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process. -
I just got this used G5 from a friend so I can start introducing myself to the Apple world. I had enough Microsoft PC issues and I think is time for me to start using Apple from now on. I just want to know what's the latest OS I can upgrade this computer without investing too much money or any at all. My next purchase will be a Mac Pro Quad-core. I will like to use this G5 as the means to learn most of the good things Apple has to offer. Any assistance or advice will be appreciated. I will like to know how much I can do to update and upgrade this old system.
Thanks.
CarlosIt's already running the newest OS it can.
