    I don't understand your question.
    You can update itunes to the most recent available version for leopard without updating to Lion.

  • My MacBookPro is currently running on 10.6.8.  What should I update to?

    I am currently running 10.6.8 on my 2008 MacBook Pro.  Processor speed:2.66 GH, memory 4GB.  What operating system should I update to?

    You might try Yosemite first, since it is free.
    One option is to create a new partition (~30- 50 GB), install the new OS, and ‘test drive’ it. If you like/don’t like it it, you can then remove the partition. Do a backup before you do anything. By doing this, if you don’t like it you won't have to go though the revert process.
    If you don't like that, then Mountain Lion.

  • Should I update my Mac Mini to Mavericks???

    Hi,
    I have a late 2012 Mac Mini which I purchased mid 2013. It is running OS X 10.8.5 (12F45) (Mountain Lion I believe) and I am able to upgrade for free to OS X 10.9.5 Mavericks. I have read many review comments for Mavericks and they seem to be very mixed as to if it is good or bad.
    I want to update my Mac Mini but I can not find any specific information on if the upgrade will work fine for a Mac Mini as most questions and answers are more specific for a Mac Book or iMac.
    I am very much a noob at all this so your help (and understanding) would be very much appreciated .
    Cheers.

    Based in my experience with a very newly acquired new late 2012 mac mini, I would not update.  I already had an older mac mini that ran perfectly under Snow Leopard.  And indeed it still does run perfectly under 10.6.8 and indeed Windows 7.
    But there have been continuing annoying issues with Mavericks.  E.g. the dock disappears without reason  As for email, the new mail program is dire - keeps reverting to conversation mode, and when BT changed me over to the new servers in the UK this week - used by millions here in UK) - the IMAP account parameters are so automated that Apple just default to the old servers that don't work.  There is no obvious way to define the new servers.
    OK there may be a workaround but it's a farce.  The web is awash with complaints about mail - some suggesting using Thunderbird.
    I have 50 years IT experience - a real geek - so how do less experienced users get on.
    So I am running my new mac mini permanently on Windows 7 under boot camp 5.  It just works - unlike Mavericks.
    Incidentally the new mac mini hardware is great - a lovely balance of design, portability and power.
    Both Apple and MS have surrendered their product development to marketing.
    I wish I could put Snow leopard on my second mac mini but there seems no sensible way.

  • What should I upgrade my mac x 10.5.8 software to?

    In order to do many thing including installing programs, syncing my iphone ect, I need to upgrade my software.
    I have a very old mac with X 10.5.8 and am not a technological genius to say the least.
    I know I need to upgrade my software to at least 10.6 (I think it's Snow Leopard) but I don't want to do this just to find out I was able to skip that and download the latest software as I don't have money to burn.
    Also what are the pro's and con's of upgrading past 10.6 if I do so?
    Thanks,
    Mac Novice

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
    If it's a PowerPC Mac, it's already running the newest OS it can.
    If it's a Core Duo Mac, click here, install the DVD, and run Software Update. If you're running Mac OS X Server, you'll need to phone the online Apple Store instead of using the link.
    If it's a Core 2 Duo or better Mac, upgrade it as if it was a Core Duo Mac, and if desired, open the Mac App Store, and try downloading 10.9. If you get told it's incompatible, go to the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
    Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC software such as Microsoft Office 2004. If you upgrade the OS, back up the computer first.

  • VPN - What should we see? | Mac to mac VPN

    So now that I have my VPN working properly, should I be able to see the remote Macs in my Finder Network browser?
    At the moment I have to Apple-K and put in their IP number to access them them.
    Same for Printers, should I be able to see the remote printers in my Printer Setup Utility?

    you can't browse the network over a VPN link.
    You need to know the IP addresses and/or use DNS host names (using an internal DNS server which points hostname -> private IP address).
    With dns, you could connect to:
    hp500.domain.com
    jeff.domain.com
    server.domain.com
    or if you add domain.com to you search domains in the client, you would just enter:
    hp500
    jeff
    server

  • Plugin check says that Java 1.6.0_29 is vulnerable and should bl updated on Mac when 1.6.0_29 is current and is already on the machine. Glitch?

    Mozilla Plugin Check gives a vulnerable warning for Java, even though its up to date on the page it sends you to.

    We have just upgraded the JRE to 1.6.0_29 which has added additional security and caused our part of our application fail.
    Try going to 1.6.0.27
    See release note for .29
    RMI Registry Issue
    A bug in the rmiregistry command included in this release may cause unintended exceptions to be thrown when an RMI server attempts to bind an exported object which includes codebase annotations using the "file:" URL scheme. The RMI servers most likely to be effected are those which are invoked only by RMI clients executing on the same host as the server.
    RMI annotates codebase information as part of the serialized state of a remote object reference to assist RMI clients in loading the required classes and interfaces associated with the object at runtime. Exported objects which are looked up in the RMI registry and invoked by RMI clients running on hosts other than the server are usually annotated with codebase URL schemes, such as "http:" or "ftp:" and these should continue to work correctly.
    As a workaround, RMI servers can set the java.rmi.server.codebase property to use codebase URLs other than the "file:" scheme for the objects they export.

  • What should I get? Mac Pro? Mac Book Pro? iMAc 24"?

    Hello, I had a Power Mac G5 and the mother board with the two CPU's broke down, so now I have to get a new system or repair it by myself. The money that the inssurace company gives to me is enough for a new "Mac one quad" and even an upgrade to logic 8 and an mLan card for my 01v96. I also have a MOTU 828 mkII.
    I also have a Mac book pro for my Job (I sell storage solutions like NetApp and EMC on a company in spain)
    The questiion is that I never used the G5 at a 100% and the only card I had was a RME DIGI 96/8 PAD.
    I use my studio for composing (personal and sometimes for theatre)
    I think that with a Mac Pro I can always grow on configurations and I have enough CPU resources for the future.
    About using a Mac book Pro seems to me that it is a temporary solution??
    With an iMac I found that it gets very hot after a while. Does it affect to the performance?
    Rerpair the G5= 700$ but I think it is a short time solution??
    Please let me know your opinions.
    Thanks

  • What do I update to after Mac OSX 10.5?

    My mac book is still running on the OSX 10.5.8, but I've been having problems with safari shutting down when I watch t.v or movies. What should I update to next?

    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    It's been pulled from the online store, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard, but quick, call before it's gone!
    Call Apple 1-800-MY-APPLE
    You have to get 10.6.8 first to go even higher to 10.7 or 10.8

  • I have already paid the licence and I still get the notice "We can't verify your subscription" whenever I open the program, and the expiration date is tomorrow. What should I do?

    I have the following problem. Yesterday I paid the licence for Illustrator with my credit card and I correctly received in my e-mail, the payment confirmation. However, whenever I try to open the program I get the following message "We can't verify your subscription". You are offline or there's a problem with your invoicing account. Sign in to manage your account and verify invoicing data. If you have any further problem or question, contact the "Customer service". So, what should I do?

    maca,
    You may try to restart the Creative Cloud application by quitting and relaunching it.
    Failing that you may try Creative Cloud support (all Creative Cloud customer service issues),
