When Windows 8 comes out, will there be an upgrade option for current TouchSmart owners?

I just read a little bit about Windows 8 and noticed it was a very touch oriented OS. Once HP adapts their TouchSmart line to this new OS, will they offer a way for current owners to upgrade to Windows 8 and the (presumably) new TouchSmart software?

No one here would be privi to Apple's plans on the matter. Submit your feedback to Apple requesting such a feature:

In the interim, there is a reminder program for pretty much every need and taste in the App Store.

  • When Leopard comes out, will Tiger still be available?

    I'm a nincompoop with computers, when Leopard comes out, will Tiger still be available to purchase? I would rather have OS X Leopard, but I don't know if my powerbook will satisfy the requirements to run it. Have they published the requirements for Leopard? I want to make an informed decision but I'm not sure if time will permit.

    Here you can buy previous versions off OSX:
    http://www.macsales.com/
    MacSales does still sell OSX Panther (version before Tiger). So if Leopard is available for sail you can still buy Tiger there. There are also a lott other store's which do sell previous versions off OSX.
    I don't know what model powerbook you have?
    If it is a G4 then you can definitely run Leopard on it. Leopard will probably not support any off the Mac's with a G3 processor.
    Hopefully this is helpfull or solved your problem.

  • When IOS7 comes out, will the current iPhone 5 and iPad mini have the finger scanner option, or is it just the new 5S, because in the release videos, they showed an on screen finger scanner, so I was curious whether older models will have this function?

    Please Answer

    The fingerprint scanner will be a function of new hardware.

  • Usually there is a upgrade path for current users of the software at a reduced price. I dont see anything like that for Lightroom 6. Will I have to pay full price just to upgrade to the new LR6 standalone version???

  • If i update my iphone to os 5 when it comes out will it lock my phone even after i have had it unlocked by the network?, If i update my iphone to os 5 when it comes out will it lock my phone even after i have had it unlocked by the network?

    Hi
    I have an iphone 3gs. It was locked to Vodafone but have got them to unlock thru itunes so i can use my 3 sim card
    I have heard that if you update the iphone software it can lock it back to the network.
    Can you let me know if its just if you jailbreak your iphone or for even if my unlock was autherized.
    As i want to get the new os5 update when it comes out.
    Thanks in advanced
    Jon

    I know I answered you before on this but can't find the thread. Guess you didn't like my answer. Your phone was illegally hacked to unlock it and when you updated the phone it relocked it back to the original carrier. This made the sim you had in the phone useless and therefore it cannot activate the phone. Nothing can be done in these forums to help you fix your problem as it is against the TOS to discuss illegal unlocking or jailbreaking the phone.

  • I have a 27 in. iMac with the latest version of Snow Leopard. When Lion comes out, will it be software I purchase and download online? I am trying to prepare for cost and don't have a point of reference, having been a Windows guy until last summer.

    I want to know what to expect in terms of moving from one OS to another. Having been a Windows guy until last summer, my only experience is going from one version of Windows to another, which is usually a fairly costly purchase. I will want to go to Lion, but as a retired teacher, my income is fixed. I am not looking for a specific price, I am sure that is unknown, but I would just like to know help Apple does these things so I won't be sadly surprised.

    Historically Apple has sold OS X upgrades via DVD media however with the advent of the Mac Apple Store that throws another possibility into the mix. That's about as much as I can say as these forums don't allow us to speculate about future products. As for the cost historically Apple has priced OS X upgrades between $29-$129, the last upgrade (Snow Leopard) was only $29 but that was an exception. Again we cannot speculate on these forums about that. The good news is that Apple is unlike Microsoft which makes OS upgrades expensive and complicated. The choice with OS X is do you want a server version (most users don't need one) or a single computer license. The users that buy server versions tend to have a number of Macs they manage from a server, most consumers don't have this issue.
    Keep reading the news, as you know Apple has announced a Summer release for Lion.
    Upgrades on OS X are usually very simple. I've upgraded from Tiger to Leopard to Snow Leopard and each transition has been very easy. With any major OS upgrade there are some basic rules to follow, for example always, always, always backup prior to any update. When Lion is released to the general public post again for what to do to prepare or even do a Google search on "How to prepare for OS X upgrade" and you will find a number of articles that will provide some suggestions and valuable insight. You can also re-post here and users will be happy to assist.

  • When 3G comes out, will EDGE be faster?

    With all the bandwith being shifted over to the 3G network, will it speed up EDGE since everyone wont be using it as much?

    Do you mind share this info with us? Thank you
    Sure. Check Macsimum News this weekend. I will run an article how to implement the process and use it.
    If you're like me and visit a lot of news sites in a day, this really works well for that--even using WiFi. Pages that normally take me 20 seconds to load, now load in 5 seconds. It will eliminate a lot of graphic ads that slow page loading down. Pages are designed to render on an iPhone also, so you won't miss any content.
    To prove to you that it work, I'll have a link to a network speed test site designed for an iPhone, so you can test the speeds yourself.

  • Will there be another upgrade available for iPod touch1st Generation.

    I would like to use my iPod  for more than just music and instagram. I like to be able to use facebook and twitter and imessage. I don't think it's fair that I can't use some of the everydy apps that everybody else can. we should be able to at least upgrade to an iOS 4.0 if anything else

    It is extremely unlikely that there will ever be another update for it.
    This is completely normal in every way.  ALL computers/devices/TVs/dvd players/phones/etc become unable to run the latest software at some point.  There is nothing unusual about this at all.

  • I would like to install Mountain Lion when it comes out...

    I have a late 2010 MBA 13 with 2GB of RAM and a 128GB SSD running OSX Snow Leopard. I'd like to install Mountain Lion when it comes out. I've heard that I must have OSX Lion first. I've always backed up my Mac using Time Machine to an external HDD, and the backups are current. My question is, I'd like a successful install of Lion, so that when ML comes out, I can buy and install that. My computer has two seperate user accounts, one for my wife and one for myself. We both use this computer and I don't want to mess any of her files, settings, etc up with either upgrade.
    Would I be safe performing a backup, then buying Lion from the Mac App Store and installing it? What problems would I run into? When ML comes out, will that be an easy upgrade also?
    Ryan

    You actually DON'T need to have Lion installed in order to installed Mountain Lion. You can do it right from Snow Leopard.
    But if you want to install Lion beforehand(which at this point I would just say to wait for ML), then yes, backup your Macintosh HD to an external hard drive or just use Time Machine, and that will back up both user accounts.

  • Can I upgrade this OS X to Yosemite when it comes out

    ccan I upgrade OS X Mavericks to Yosemite when it comes out

    Yosemite will be a free upgrade when it is released but older Macs may not be able to run it. For example the first generation MacBook Air cannot run it.
    If you do the following we can check which model you have and tell you whether yours can run it.
    Go to the Apple menu and select "About this Mac" - How much memory does it say, and what is the current OS X version?
    Now twice on the OS X version number, it should then show the serial number, what is it?
    You can now use that serial number at this website - http://www.everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/ it will tell you the model of Mac you have, and if you open the detailed information for that model and scroll down it will tell you what versions of OS X it is capable of running.
    As mentioned the first (original) MacBook Air model the macbookair1,1 cannot run Yosemite, or Mavericks, or Mountain Lion, it can only run up to Lion. Later models including the macbookair2,1 can run Yosemite, Mavericks and Mountain Lion.
    With regards to memory, you cannot upgrade the memory and it will have come with at least 2GB as standard. This is enough to run Yosemite but if you had 4 or even 8 it would be much better. Therefore even if you have a model that is compatible with Yosemite - if it only has 2GB of RAM (which cannot be upgraded on the MacBook Air) you might want to think about selling it and getting a newer one with more memory.

  • If I buy FCPX 10.0.5 will I be able to upgrade to 10.0.6 for free when it comes out?

    If I buy FCPX 10.0.5 will I be able to upgrade to 10.0.6 for free when it comes out? I know 10.0.6 comes out sometime this month or soon....

    I guess you already know the answer to this but yes, you can upgrade for free!!! But there are some issues with 10.0.6 you need to be aware of. Read the associated issues before you upgrade. It may not affect you if you don't already have a bunch of rendered projects though. Good luck!

  • Will the ipad  2 get ios7 when it comes out?

    Hi all,
    I just wondered if my ipad 2 will get updated to ios7 when it comes out, wont they have to bring ios7 to it because they are still selling the ipad 2?
    Thanks

    This is an iPad user to user forum. Apple doesn't read or respond. Us users have no way of knowing what Apple will do. There is currently an update iOS 6.1 beta being tested. When released it will work on your iPad 2.

  • When the unlock iphone 5 come out, will the unlock iphone 4 price drop down?

    when the unlock iphone 5 come out, will the unlock iphone 4 price drop down?

    We can't speak for Apple, but I highly doubt that there will be further price drops to the iPhone 4, not just because of the release of the unlocked iPhone 5, anyway.

  • The unlocked IPhone 4S models will not be available until November, Why is that? Why would Apple do that? I should be able to buy a factory unlocked Apple iPhone 4S when it comes out! Why is my interests being put last and Sprint, Verizon

    The unlocked IPhone 4S models will not be available until November, Why is that? Why would Apple do that? I should be able to buy a factory unlocked Apple iPhone 4S when it comes out! I travel all over the world, and so that is why I need one like that. It is unfair to the consumer, and frankly turning away customers like myself willing to pay high dollar to Apple for their product, who can I speak with to complain about this, because I know their are factory unlocked iPhone 4S' sitting in a warehouse somewhere just waiting to be shipped, and I want one.  I know why, cause Apple signed contracts with each carrier so the carrier could increase their sales making customers sign 2 year contracts, I get it, I own my own business, but the delay of releasing factory unlocked ones is just not right and I should be able to buy one without having to buy it over in the UK where it is unlocked when it comes out right away, I should be able to buy it in my own country!  These business practices we practice in the US need to stop, their is a demand that needs to be met with consumers like myself who don't need subsidized iPhone's with 2 year contracts with carriers and don't mine paying full price for an unlocked one, it is unethical in a sense, forcing the customer to buy it with a carrier contract and NOT giving the customer the option to buy it full price and own it themselves, OR, making the consumer wait a month for that option to be available.  THEY SHOULD BE RELEASED AT THE SAME TIME!!!!!!  THAT IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO!!!!!!
    Apple can contact me and I will proudly pay for one.  But making me wait a month for an unlocked one, puts AT&T, Sprint & Verizon's interests before mine, and that is not right, for it is MY money that keeps you guys in business, so my best interests should come first!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I understand your frustration, but when any form of rationing is required you have to prioritise. The number of unlocked vs packaged phones will be quite small and the number of unlocked buyers wishing to upgrade immediately will be smaller still. Against this you have the corporations sharing $billions between them.
    It would, you're correct, have been fairer to release all at the same time, but fairer doesn't come into it: it's business.
