I have a 2007 Mac Pro running 10.7.4. Will I be able to upgrade to mountain Lion? I have a 2007 Mac Pro running 10.7.4. Will I be able to upgrade to Mountain Lion? I have a 2007 Mac Pro running 10.7.4. Will I be able to upgrade to Mountain Lion?
I'm running 10.6.5 on my Mid 2010 15" MBP. I was also a MobileMe user.
Now I'm thinking about upgrading to Mountain Lion upon it's release, and have questions to help me decide if I want to use iCloud or not.
1) I have zero interest in Lion and want to skip it, going directly to Mountain Lion. Can this be done?
2) If I choose to use iCloud, during setup, one is given a list of checkboxes for the items they want to sync. One checkbox is labeled "documents & data".
Once this box is checked and a sycn is executed, what specific files are uploaded from my MacBook Pro?
Do I have control over what goes up into iCloud? Initially my iCloud usage would be mostly data files, I would want to choose which files go to the cloud and which files remain on my hard drive. Is this possible?
The amount of control over what goes into the cloud is my main concern. If I have total control, then iCloud will be great. If not then I will use another solution.
I would like to use a perfectly good Canon Pixma ip4200 printer with OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.5 and Yosemite 10.10.1 on my 2013 model iMac but Canon say they do not do a driver for these more recent versions of OSX later than 10.7. Is there any way to get this to work?
My macbook is so slow after upgrading to yosemite.
Here are the specs and the Etrecheck results. MacBook (13-inch, Mid 2010)processor2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 DuoMemory2 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 320M 256 MB And also here is the Etrecheck results, Problem description:My macbook is running very slow EtreCheck.
After upgrading my MacBook Pro 13-inch (mid-2010) with 8 GB of RAM to Yosemite (10.10.1), the monitor streaks on and off (almost like it's an old dot matrix printer). I've repaired the permissions and the disk, but that didn't work. how I can get the monitor to stop flashing?
After upgrading to OS 10.10.1 I keep getting the following error message: "Initialization Failure CrossOver is unable to initialize a critical component. Failed to import cxutils module int Python. See console for errors. The program will now exit."

optimising my iMac? I've upgraded to Yosemite (what a mistake!) and now the videos on the net are endlessly charging, my track pad is not that responsive and my iMac is soo slow!
I have bought MBA last month only. I could see the battery back up will be for 13 hours if I charge completely. Few days back I have updated OS to 10.10.1. Battery back up has been fallen down to just 3 hours after complete charging. I will either use safari to browse or see some videos. I have checked the condition of the Battery. Its showing Normal. No apps are using significant energy as well. Also it significantly increases the heat which I have never seen while using Mavericks. What should I do to get back my 13 hours battery back up.
Upgraded my iMac (2010) from Mavericks to Yosemite yesterday. Since when, anything I try to print to my Kodak printer grinds to a halt after there first few seconds of starting to print. The printer will print fine from another laptop. It will print test pages and direct photocopies all without a problem. Doesn't matter whether am connected via wireless or USB, the same thing happens. Am thinking I should possibly try to 'downgrade' back to Mavericks - if that is possible.
I have lost all my pictures stored in iPhoto in my mac after upgrading to os x yosemite. how to revert back to old version and get all my pictures back?
just recieved my refurbished macbook air (2011) 2 weeks ago.Does it qualify for free upgrade to mountain lion ? The website only talked about "qualifying new mac system set..."
I was about to buy Lion so I can start using the extra space I purchased on Iclouds but I noticed that Mountain Lion is coming later this summer.Can I wait and simply install Mountain Lion without ever getting Lion?
when mountain lion will release this year if I upgrade my Lion OS to new Apple's new Mac OS what will happen to recovery HD partition? They said my Lion OS will be gone and everything will be Mountain Lion. I bought this Macbook pro late 2011 and its running Lion OS with recovery HD.
if it is possible to upgrade the USB 2.0s on the MacBook Pro (2010) to USB 3.0s? I know the new Macbooks are dropping soon with 3.0s on em, and Instead of swapping out computers entirely, I am interested in upgrading my internals as far as I can, just to keep up with the curve and to increase my Macs performance. (2) will the new hardware work with Lion? Im not sure if there would be any type of hardware-recognition issues associated with the upgrade. (3) If not, would it likely work with Mountian Lion?
And Lastly (4), How is it done? Im sure its pretty straitforward after popping off the base plate and getting a look inside the Notebook, but Im actually going to purchace new RAM to increase the speed at which my Mac runs, and new USBs, and possibly even a boosted HDD to throw inside and Instead of taking the back off so many times, I kindof wanna do it all at once.I cant be the only one who wants to boost the USBs.
