OSX updates

I want to improve Mavericks in Yosemite.  I'm going to lose apps and Microsoft office, I installed on my gift

System? All my documents are backed up, music, etc.  It seems I remember that I had to reinstall some apps and Office

after another upgrade in the past.  I just want to avoid extra hassle.  CC I guess I asking all will remain the same after the upgrade?

I am afraid that you cannot spend in Yosemite right now unless you have an installer on a USB key.

Only, you can upgrade to the latest version of the operating system available. At the moment it's OS X El Capitan. The data should remain intact.

  • iMac restarts after the osx update

    Hi my son has an iMac (mid-2011 Office), and there is an OSX update it will update, but then goes to a screen gray white and just sat there. I've left overnight and does not finish the installation and come back to life.

    I tried to reinstall the operating system via CMD R and I tried first aid on the hard drive.

    If I reinstall the iMac from the time machine backup recovers OK, but I can't get the updates of the OS on the machine.

    So my question is that someone has an idea what could be the cause?

    I contemplate wiping the HD and basically start again, but I have to reinstall MS Office and his Steam account

    Any advice would be welcome

  • OSX Update 10.11.3 iMacs causes gray screen of death Mid 2011

    Hello everyone,

    I'm new to the forums of apple, so I don't know exactly if it was to go to the right place. This isn't any question that it's a PUBLIC service announcement.

    Basically, a summary of my post is that OSX update 10.11.3 causes both 27 "& 21.5" mid 2011 iMacs is not start properly. After the update installs and the iMac restarts, the startup sequence seems fine, showing the Apple logo, then the progress bar. However, when you expect your login screen to appear, instead you are greeted with a dark gray screen and movable mouse... and he the system is still a little sensitive. If you press the keys on the keyboard you hear the sound of "bum" as if you had to press a key when you weren't supposed to, and if you press the power button (do not want) the system will switch to standby (and wakes up if you press it again). So this isn't really frozen, it's just nice... it.

    Puzzled, I went to Google, hoping to find someone with a similar problem. I have not found much. I found some people with similar problems (gray screen is a bit more general), but I have found others with 27 "mid 2011 iMacs have this problem (links below :))

    Cannot install the update of El Capitan 10.11.3 (Stuck in gray screen)

    iMac mid 2011, gray screen of death!

    gray screen with the pointer to the login screen

    What I read, some iMacs have been recalled for the failures of graphics card, and that's what some people have responded to in the positions as a possible cause. (This is also what comes mainly from back when you search for "27" iMac screen gray) But this doesn't seem to be the issue here. The above posts are fairly recent and seem to coincide with the update 10.11.3 put in place, and they are the same symptoms that I have experience, but with no working solution.

    Once I have restore my backup time machine last before updating 10.11.3 is installed, the system works perfectly. Unfortunately, if you have not a backup time machine to restore, it seems that reinstall OS x is your only solution (until you reinstall the update)

    I'm not an expert of OSX, but I tried everything under the Sun to try to get the system to boot properly again, like resetting the PRAM & SMC , single-user mode, safe mode, none of this works. The system does not just start.

    I don't know if this has affected everyone with mid 2011 iMacs, but I just thought I'd let people with iMacs 2011 who are having problems with this update that you are not alone, and I hope that someone at apple can be seen. If you have an iMac 2011 that has not been updated to 10.11.3 again, I will not do.

    Thank you

    It is not material, it's software.

    My keyboard came with my Imac aluminum had a problem that I thought was material, but order the update of the post 10.11.2 v works again.

You click on read more and I tried all the solutions. Always error. Uninstalled and reinstalled - always error.  Cannot set up a new admin on Gov't computer user. Help

    Please make sure that you gave permission for the folders listed in the article, follow these steps.

    1 - give read and write permissions for the Application Support folder and preferably on User Library and the secret library.

    2 - Add user and admin both permissions.

    When you open the Get Info option for specific folder.

    Make sure you click on '+' symbol, it will open the list of user accounts. Add currently logged in user account and Director of user account, if it is not added.

    Both must have read and write to prevent access these some questions in the future.

    Important:

    Once you added as currently logged on user account and administrator user accounts and provided access for reading and writing.

    Make sure you click on the gear icon and select apply to closed.

    Lock dialog box and close the Get Info .

    So that all the folders in the folder Adobe will get read and write access.

  • trying to update to safari without OSX update

    I have a 2007 IMac and (10.6.8) running snow leopard and Safari (5.1.10). Many programs and applications that I try to tell me that my browser is obsolete. I'm maxed out on 3 GB of RAM and when I tried to upgrade to El Capitan, I've been invited could not be installed on my computer (maybe because I don't have enough RAM). Is it possible to update Safari without updating my operating system upgrade from GOLD to one other than El Capitan OSX?

    It is not possible. Safari is updated only when you upgrade to OS X. I doubt that your model can run anything higher than the Lion, but see below:

    Upgrade to El Capitan

    You can pass the Lion El Capitan or directly from Snow Leopard. El Capitan can be downloaded for FREE from the Mac App Store.

    Upgrade to El Capitan

    To upgrade to El Capitan, you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or installed Lion. Download El Capitan from the App Store. Sign in with your Apple ID. El Capitan is free. The file is big enough, more than 5 GB, allow it some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.

    Mac that can be upgraded to OS X El Capitan

    1 iMac (mid-2007 or newer) - model identifier 7.1 or later

    2 MacBook (late 2008 or early 2009 or newer aluminium) - model identifier 5.1 or later

    3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)- model identifier 3.1 or later version

    4 MacBook Air (late 2008 or newer)- model identifier 2.1 or later

    5 mac mini (early 2009 or newer)- model identifier 3.1 or later version

    6 mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)- model identifier 3.1 or later version

    7 Xserve (early 2009) - model identifier 3.1 or later version

    To find the identifier of the model open system information in the Utilities folder. It is displayed in the Panel on the right.

    My applications are compatible?

    See table of application - RoaringApps compatibility

    Upgrade to Lion

    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install the Mavericks, it can still meet the specifications to install Lion.

    You can buy Lion to the Apple store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus taxes.  It's a download. You will receive an email with a redemption code that you then use on the Mac App Store for download Lion. Save a copy of this installer to your download folder because Setup deletes itself at the end of the installation.

    Lion system requirements

    1 mac with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,

    or Xeon processor

    2. 2 GB of memory

    3 OS X 10.6.6 or later (10.6.8) recommended

    4. 7 GB of available space

    5. certain features require an Apple ID; conditions apply.

  • OSX update problem

    I ran the last updated yesterday and my Mac hangs after reboot. I have the apple logo and progress bar was clinging to about 75% since yesterday morning. Appreciate any advice on what to do next. Sorry, but I can't patch that was installed, but I keep my mac to update so it should be the last. Perhaps 12.4.3?  Thank you.

    At this point, you can it turn off and on again. It should complete the update or return to the previous state. Worst case, it does not start and you need to start to repair and recovery or reinstall OS X. If it's been sitting that long, however, it isn't really all that you can do to kick start it short of a reboot.

  • Messages.app and Facetime.app do not open after OSx updated 10.11.5 Mountain Lion

    Last night, I've updated my Macbook Pro in early 2011 at the El Capitan 10.11.5 Cougar (Yes, the leap). Open all apps to check out them, and Facetime.app and Messages.app are not open.

    FaceTime.app gives the message "an internal FaceTime error has occurred. There was a problem with Facetime. You must exit and reopen Facetime. "A few times. No change.

    Messages.app: Last night after update, I opened it and gives the message "Messages is updated... The database of Messages is in the process of modernization, please wait until it is finished or Messages Quit and restart it later. "Allowed to do that during the night (about 7 hours). App reopened this morning and nothing went up, no new window, no error message, no light 'walk' on the dock; but, if you click on it showed the "Application does not message." After a few re-openings, it's the message even 'Messages is updated"as above.

    I have not tried anything other than a restart.

    Any ideas on what to try? Thank you in advance!

    create a new administrative account, start to this account and see if open programs.

    otherwise, open the Console.app (from projector to type "console" without the quotation marks)

    clear the console log (clear view)

    Launch the application

    Paste the result to the console in this thread for analysis.

  • 10.11.4 OSX update itunes library is broken

    After the last update of El Capitan, iTunes can not find more my library. It is located on an external hard drive, it is still there but it seems that the file format changed in the latest version of itunes so that it can not find the library more. Anyone has the same problem, and there is no work around?

    Open iTunes preferences and make sure the path to the location of media is correct. Quit iTunes and re - open while pressing the option key. Choose the location of the file library on the external hard drive.
