Will I be charged for upgrade from OSX 10.7.4 version to 10.7.6 version?

Will I be charged for upgrade from OSX 10.7.4 version to 10.7.6 version?
When I check for the software upgrade on my Mac-book Air, it is showing that the above upgrade is available. Will it be charged? I am not asked the ‘ Apple ID’ before start of up gradation process , does that mean that such upgrades are free?
If yes, How much are the chargers for such upgrades?
Thanks for your inputs.

10.7.6 does not exist.
The next one will be Mountain Lion 10.8 and will cost a little amount.
The Mountain Lion is not an "update", but an "upgrade": a different OS: before installing you should check the compatibilty of your hardware and software.

Options for Upgrade from OSX 10.4 to Leopard

Hi all, I started this question over here:
http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2592383&tstart=0
and BDAqua recommended I start a new thread, so here goes:
My computer has been crazy slow for the last year or two. I have a MacBook with Mac OS X (10.4.11). We've think we want to reinstall the OS, I don't have the original install disks.
BAqua recommended paying the $29 for the Leopard upgrade, but I noticed here http://www.apple.com/macosx/specs.html that it says I need to get the full product since I'm on OSX 10.4 - is that true?. Here's what it says on the bottom right:
Upgrading from Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger.
If your Intel-based Mac is running Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger, purchase the Mac Box Set, which is a single, affordable package that includes Mac OS X v10.6.3 Snow Leopard; iLife, with the latest versions of iPhoto, iMovie, GarageBand, iWeb, and iDVD; and iWork, Apple’s productivity suite for home and office including Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.
I'm not sure it's worth $169 to upgrade the OS - especially considering we don't even know if it's a hardware problem.
Also, can I do a complete reinstall with the upgrade disk anyways? My husband has worked on PCs for a long time, but wasn't sure what to do about a Mac that has what appears to be a lot of corrupted settings. He tried to create a new user and copy the setting over (seems like common advice on these forums), but my computer hangs forever when trying to create a new user. He figures it's faster to just reinstall than try and fix it one problem at a time. Thoughts?
Thanks so much!

There have been reports from users who have bought the $29. package
and used it to install a newer Snow Leopard 10.6.x system in a supported
Mac computer model that was capable of using that version.
Snow Leopard 10.6 is the current production version; Leopard 10.5 is not.
With enough free space (capacity, unused) on the computer's hard disk
drive, a new system could be installed; an Upgrade & Install, if you had
a newer retail install DVD. But too full of a hard disk drive, and it won't
work; neither would an Archive & Install, where you choose to have the
new system save and use the old user account & setup info. If the Mac
has too much stuff on the hard disk drive, it has to be dealt with first.
And the computer system itself is separate from the user acct issues.
The 10.6 upgrade is a full installer, according to those who have used it;
but the better deal would be to get the large 'complete package deal' due
to the addition of the other software, each in a retail package version, to
add those other apps that the upgrade installer by itself won't include.
And the older Tiger-level versions are fairly outdated to try and use in the
Mac once you've upgraded the OS from 10.4.11 to Snow Leopard 10.6.x.
Usual issues as you describe that are affecting your computer use, tend
to be related to a few factors; issues contributing to slowness and sluggish
performance, include: a too-full hard disk drive, in adequate RAM installed
to run certain Apps. And a combination of a fuller than desired hard disk
drive plus inadequate available RAM installed, can make a system slow.
RAM is on-chip random access memory; HDD capacity is storage space.
Not to confuse these; however the computer will use larger sections of free
hard disk drive space. Unused capacity, used as Virtual Memory helps the
Mac OS X system and Apps you may be using, handle the workload and
temp files, swap space, Virtual Memory and other workings, are comprom-
ised by a lack of sufficient free or unused hard disk drive capacity.
Also, in addition to the above, certain cache files in the system, and other
items addressed by routine and preventative maintenance, can grow to a
point where they can slow the system. So, trying to install an upgrade over
a problem not directly related to the system, only will layer the first problem.
The symptoms you describe indicate the problem is probably due to the
hard drive being near full capacity; or perhaps it has bad sectors and a
part of the hard disk drive is not longer accessible to the Mac OS X, so the
computer is working around the lack of space needed as Virtual Memory;
and has gotten way slow in trying to find temporary work space, under load.
IF the internal drive in the computer is more than 75 to 85% full, it likely is
overdue for some clearing out; image files, music files, libraries of these
can use up plenty of hard disk drive storage capacity. So much, the Mac
may start to work very hard, and then the usual thing is hard drive failure.
So, you should consider using an external drive enclosure that can boot
the computer model you have (some can't.) If your Mac has USB 2.0
ports, and FireWire400/800, then an external enclosure sporting both
kinds of ports (FW + USB2.0) with its own power supply; and making a
complete computer drive clone, on the external drive.
Once a suitable and boot-capable copy/clone is created on an external
hard disk drive, and it is tested to see it can start and run the Mac, you
could choose to use Disk Utility from the clone's utility folder, and have
it 'repair disk permissions' on the booted clone. Then, it may be OK to
secure erase (one-pass) the hard disk drive, using Disk Utility's optional
tools, and choose a partition map (GUID-type) and reformat to HFS+.
Then, the system which was cloned to the external drive could be re-
cloned back to the internal hard disk drive. The same Clone utility can
be used to move or copy an OS X system back & forth. One that I use
is a free-running donationware/download, named Carbon Copy Cloner.
Since the computer have/had shipped with a special version of Tiger
10.4, (Intel-based Macs with Tiger) this would not be able to use a
retail copy of the Tiger DVD to do a re-install. You could call Apple
Sales/Support, and tell them the Serial Number of your Mac, and ask
about getting a replacement original software packet for your computer.
This would cost a nominal fee; or go for the $29. Snow Leopard one.
The product specialist you'd talk to about this, at 1-800-MY-APPLE
may be able to direct you somewhat, if the original Tiger 10.4 replace-
ment disc set is no longer available for your computer.
A concern, would be if you were somehow able to install an upgrade to
a later system into your computer, as it is now (with issues) the problem
could be worse, since a too-full hard disk drive can be damaged or be
a cause of software/data loss once you over-fill the drive.
Also, a portable computer, among others that see a lot of use, may need
a new/replacement hard disk drive by now; after three to five years run-
time. They do wear out, and the more they have to work to do read/write
cycles of use, such as when inadequate chip RAM is installed, to swap
files and use HDD free space as Virtual Memory, things wear out faster.
So, the system itself isn't likely the cause of the problem; but is a symptom.
And you need to have some system discs. The replacement of original discs
would give you the correct Apple Hardware Test it shipped with; this is not
on any other version OS X install disc. And the original disc set should be
included with a computer when it is sold, traded, or gifted away. Plus, any
other OS X version it may have been upgraded with. To cover all bases.
Perhaps someone else has a shorter version of this line of thinking, with a
few good web links to helpful sites? I have fielded three local interruptions
not related to computers while trying to write what I thought was a simple
reply to a question; but find it is easier to know the answer than get it out.
Some general ideas:
• OS X Maintenance and Troubleshooting:

• Maintaining Mac OS X:

• Download Titanium Software's OnyX (note system version)

There always are more questions, hopefully someone will help
match answers up correctly, and pair them off successfully.
Good luck & happy computing!

I've encountered 4HDD/11/40000000 SATA(0,0). AFTER SOME RESEARCH IN APPLE COMMUNITY, I LEARNT THAT IT'S A HARDWARE ISSUE. SO I WILL BE TAKING MY MACBOOK PRO TO NEAREST APPLE STORE. MY QUE IS, WILL IT BE FIXED IF I UPGRADE FROM OSX 10.8.5 TO MAVERICKS? What other options do I have? What can be an approximate cost for fixing this problem?

Of course not. It's a hardware problem, so it can't be fixed by upgrading software. The only option you have got is to take the MacBook to an Apple Store or reseller.
That error indicates a problem with the hard drive. What you have to do is to make a backup of your files and take the MacBook to an Apple Store or reseller, so they can confirm that the problem is the hard drive and not the SATA connector, which could be worse.
If it's a hard drive issue, it's not expensive (about $100-200, depending on the hard drive). If it's a SATA connector issue, the whole logic board may have to be replaced.
Note that you can replace the hard drive yourself if you want, but the cost between doing it yourself and taking the MacBook to an Apple Store or reseller is similar

Can I upgrade from osx tiger v10.4.11 to osx Snow Leopard v10.6 for 29$ ??

I was wondering if I could upgrade from osx tiger v10.4.11 to osx Snow Leopard v10.6 for 29$ or at a lower cost than full price. I do not need to upgrade that much because 10.4.11 is so great and I hate to leave it. Paying the full price of an operating system does not make sense to me. Can I do it cheaply because I am upgrading?

No.
The $29 upgrade is from leopard to Snow Leopard.

I got an app on my iphone that was promotionally free. I borrowed an ipad from a friend and needed the app but it was not free anymore so i logged into my apple account and downloaded the app from there. Will i be charged for downloading it?

Will i be charged for downloading it from my account which had the app while it was still free?

Some apps are written for the iPhone. Some are written for the iPad. Some are universal and will run on both.
That app is NOT universal. That means you must purchase a separate version of the app for iPhone and iPad. The iPad version will NOT run on the iPhone.
In these cases, the iPhone version of the app usually WILL run on the iPad, but it will be window-boxed when running (or expanded and unable to take advantage of the iPad display).
Pay attention when making a purchase if you want it to run on both. If it does not have a + in the price box, it is not universal.

Upgrading from OSX 10.4.9 to OSX 10.6.8 on old Mac Book Pro (2nd computer)

Greetings
I was wondering what the steps and cautions are to upgrade from OSX 10.4.11 on an old Mac Book Pro (2nd computer for shared use in household for emails, etc.) 2.33 Inel Core 2 Duo to OSX 10.6.8 or highest that I can?

You will need to get a 10.6 Snow Leopard retail disk which I don't think are still available from Apple.
Google "buy mac 10.6 snow leopard" to get an idea of current pricing. You'll need updates to10.6.8 in order to upgrade to 10.7 (the early core duo MBPros can not do this) or possibly 10.8 but check the exclusion list to be sure.
MacTracker can give you all the details. http://mactracker.ca/

How do I upgrade from OSX 10.7.5 to OSX 10.8.5

I need to upgrade from OSX 10.7.5 to OSX 10.8.5 in order to use Avid Pro Tools 10 and 11 on the same iMac.
My iMac is 2.5GHz Core i5. Pro Tools 10 will not work on OSX 10.9 and Pro Tools 11 needs 10.8.5 or 10.9.4. Not certified for Yosemite.

Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase a redemption code at the Online Apple Store: OS X Mountain Lion. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax.

Cancellation charge for upgrading ?

Hello, I recently got a rather unplesant surprise with my latest bill when I recieved a £76.51 charge for upgrading my broadband from option 1 to the option 3. Now having read the terms I was under the belief that the only actions chargeable were downgrading or cancellation so can somebody please enlighten me as to where this has come from? Thanks

Seems to happen a lot maybe you mentioned cancel in the same sentence as upgrade that would probably be enough
I would contact the forum mods it may take a day or two for them to reply but will be the best and in the long run quickest way to sort it

Upgrading from osx 10.2.8 to osx 10.4

I bought a set of 16 install disk for an emac ( they are grey ) and it came with one disk that is black with a grey x and say's xcode 2 on it. I cant get the disks to work. I put in the first disk and it tells me to click the restart button and then the computer restart and stays on the grey screen with the dark grey spinning wheel. Can some one please help?

Hi, i also have a question but it falls in the same category so didn't want to post another question.
I will be buying 512RAM so i can upgrade from OSX 10.2.8 to Tiger OSX 10.4 then I will be buying the install disks. When i go install Tiger, what will happen to all my files/music/work that i have on my emac at the moment? Will it still be on there when i fully install Tiger or will it be written over/wiped?
Seems a silly question but i want to know exactly what i am doing before i do it! Don't want to lose anything in the process.
Thanks in advance.

Can I use an OSX 10.6.3 install disk to upgrade from OSX 10.5.8

Yes. And, see below:
Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard — Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements

This is not true. Content can and is removed from the iTunes Store by copyright holders, for various reasons, at any time. When this happens the purchased items are no longer available in the purchase history. This is why it is a good idea to always download all purchases and back them up locally.
