That qualifies as an "issue".

The installer verifies the integrity of your HD before upgrading OS X. If it has defects that cannot be repaired then it requires replacement. You would be understandably disappointed if it were to upgrade your system, then be unable to start because its hard disk is corrupt.
Try starting your Mac from its original System Install DVD. Insert the disc and restart while holding the c key. Choose your startup volume from the left column and select "Repair Disk". Make note of any errors it finds. Even if it repairs successfully, it is likely to fail again.
Hard disk drives can be replaced. Expect to pay nearly $400 for an Apple Store repair.
You will not have to pay for Mountain Lion again. It's yours forever and can be downloaded again, as often as you require.

  • Will Mac Drivers From A Macbook Pro Work For A Macbook?

    Hello everyone, been looking for an answer for this for awhile.
    Im installing windows xp sp3 on many of our computers - an early 2008 Macbook pro, a 2009 Macbook, and a Brand New Imac 21.5 inch.
    Unfortunately, i cannon find the box of the 2009 macbook - which means no install cd for drivers.
    Will i be able to us any other of the driver cds (from the macbook pro or the imac) for the macbook (aluminum) or are each special for that computer? thanks!!!

    Yes. Windows XP is not choosy. It will use any MacOS installer DVD that has the Boot Camp driver installer.
    But for later versions of Windows like Vista and Windows 7, use the drivers on the Snow Leopard installer DVD. At only $29, Snow Leopard is a cheap solution as far as the drivers go but even better, SL should be on all recent Macs.

  • I have CS2 and am interested in buying CS4,or CS5, or CS5.5 used. Will my serial number from my CS2 work for an upgrade version?

    Like to own hard copy CS at the cheapest possible price.
    CS2 will not work with Lion.
    I'm looking at used CS4 upgrade discs that are for sale.
    Will my serial number from my CS2 work for the upgrade?

    There are no upgrade paths from CS2.
    If you purchased used software you're pretty much on your own. Much of what is sold on places like eBay or Craigs List doesn't have valid licenses. Caveat emptor.

  • How can I get the 23 July update to load onto my iPad. I haven't been able to access my documents or work for weeks and need to use it. Has anyone else had similar problems?

    How can I get the 23 July update to load onto my iPad. I haven't been able to access my documents or work for weeks and need to use it. Has anyone else had similar problems?

    Hello Arthur,
    Thank you for the reply.
    You were correct that deleting the app and reinstalling it was the only thing to make it work but unfortunately I lost all the documents I made, even though they were backed up to iCloud before i deleted the app. At the same time as deleting pages I had to delete keynote and numbers too, so I've lost all the documents in them too.
    The mb of data which was assigned to each programme in iCloud has reduced, so. I guess they are gone for good. Is there any other way to reaccess them?
    Not your fault but I am a bit fed up the the iPad. I have lost work that I've done and have no other copy apart from what was in iCloud, as I don't have a printer and couldn't email them too myself as I couldn't get into the programme and  i've also got episodes of tv series I purchased that I can't download and albums that are half downloaded with songs missing, so I feel a bit swindled out of time and money and am going back to DVD ,  pen and paper and CDs .
    Instead of using iCloud I guess the only way to make sure I don't loose any more documents it to email them to myself each time I save them on the iPad. Is there anything else you could suggest please?
    I don't have any other apple products apart from iPods, so I can't access the iCloud on anything else can I?
    Thanks

  • Will Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard work for my macbook?

    To get iLife and iWork. If you only want iPhoto or other single apps from iLife '11 you can get them from the App Store after you've upgraded to 10.6.6. iPhoto, iMovie or Garage Band for $15 each and Pages, Keynote or Numbers from iWork '09 for $20 each.
    Once you are at 10.6.8 you can buy Lion for $29 from the App Store. 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.

    Hi ChuckN,
    I have installed the update at home on an older 27" iMac, a new retina macbook pro 15", an older macbook air  and a recent 21" iMac and on none of them does the redeem by camera option show up.
    I would say to our north American friends this is something that has been working for you for a while and has only been announced as available in AU with the latest update for our region this week. Sadly updates don't always work straight up.
    I am hopeful there is something I have not turned on but think I may need to wait for another update.
    good luck Chuck!

  • Is Adobe CC working for you-beyond Snow Leopard?

    I use Mac & Adobe for my my business. I can't charge for the work-arounds. Work-around's are what I get from support.  Like -do a "save-as to the desk top cause the folder is corrupt." Why after 20 years does a folder become corrupt. Or maybe it has only been 10 years? I've put off Lion because I heard from others about all the problems over the past 5 years. There is something wrong here. They are trashing what works for "what can we turn it into". I have to get work done, I do not have time to not play. Maybe they have a playpen and sep from the workers.

  • Will Mac OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard work for a windows Computer....???

    hi. i am wondering if i could buy MAC OSX 10.6 SNOW LEOPARD and put it into my windows Computer and erase windows and put MAC on it? i just bought an. HP Pavilion Slimline about 1-2 weeks ago. and it has. AMD Athlon II X2. With NVIDIA Graphics With Cuda.... Will it work??? please let em know....

    Snow Leopard requires an Apple Macintosh with an Intel CPU. I doubt that even with extensive, license-breaking hacks you could get it to run on an AMD CPU.

  • Mac Pro 2014 USB Keyboard not working for log-in.

    I have a Mac Pro 2014 with two thunderbolt displays and an apple USB keyboard.  Whenever I boot up the computer the keyboard doesn't seem to work at first.  Often I get hung up on the log-in screen pushing keys to no effect until the bluetooth keyboard dialog comes up.  Then after that sits fruitlessly looking for a non-existent keyboard for about 30sec the USB keyboard will start to work.  In total I'd say this delays logging in by about a minute.  During this whole time the USB mouse and Wacom tablet work.  After logging in everything works fine.
    Also this might be related, if the computer goes to sleep it can take several attempts to wake it up before I'll get a login screen.

    Mine was also fresh out of the box. My reseller in Iceland could verify this and this was the solution. I first thought it was the Icelandic keyboard. Reported it as bug.

  • My new PC runs WIn.8.1 plus,..Will the latest version of Quick Time work for me?

    Hi robertfromsalt spring island,
    Happy Holidays!
    The resource below will explain how to uninstall and re-install Quicktime for Windows if you are having issues with the software.
    iTunes 10.5 or later for Windows: Older media files may require QuickTime - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-is/HT203459
    With iTunes 10.5 or later, QuickTime isn't included when you install iTunes. Although media content purchased or rented from the iTunes Store doesn't need QuickTime to play, you may have older media files that require QuickTime. 
    Install QuickTime
    If you already have QuickTime installed, you may have to uninstall and reinstall QuickTime.
    Download QuickTime.
    Double-click the downloaded file.
    Follow the directions in the QuickTime Installer to complete the installation.
    Uninstall QuickTime on Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8
    Quit QuickTime if it's open.
    From the Start menu, click Control Panel.
    In Control Panel, click "Uninstall a program." The Programs and Features Control Panel will open.
    If you don't see the "Uninstall a program" link, click Programs and Features.
    Select QuickTime from the list of currently installed programs and click Uninstall.
    When asked if you would like to remove QuickTime, click Yes.
    Restart your computer.
    I hope this information helps ....

    You could try installing again over your existing install. And, if you want to go back to Leopard, then you will need to do an erase and install. I would first try the Leopard (i.e., 10.5) DVD. But, you may have to use the Snow Leopard (i.e., 10.6) DVD for the erase part. Let's assume the first for now. Startup from the DVD by holding down c when starting up. Next, when able, choose your language and stop. Then, using the menus at the top, select Disk Utility and erase you drive. Next, quit Disk Utility and continue the install. After the install is complete, insert your Leopard applications disk and install the programs you want. Now, you are done.
    In the other case, you will have to exit the installer after exiting Disk Utility. Next, you would startup with your Leopard DVD again by holding c down during startup. Now, after selecting your language again, just click install. After the installer is finished, install your applications as above.
