If you want a new computer with the absolute latest operating system preinstalled, you may want to hold off on buying a new one unless you want to update it yourself. Code-named Mavericks (after a popular surfing area in California), OS X 10.9 could arrive within the month. Mountain Lion is Apple’s latest version of the Mac operating system, but the company plans to release a new one soon. If you try to use a program in this folder, the Mac usually refuses to open it and presents a system alert advising you to go get a compatible version. Programs that will not run on the newer system are automatically moved to a folder labeled Incompatible Software. As long as your programs are compatible with the newer version of Mac OS X, they should run fine, but you may want to look for any free software updates that may be available.Ĭhecking the system requirements for your most-used programs before you do the transfer can help you plan for any new versions you may have to buy.
#MICROSOFT WORD FOR MAC OS X 10.8 MAC OS X#
The Migration Assistant program included over the last few years with Mac OS X moves pretty much all personal information - user accounts, settings, Keychain password, files, folders and programs - on the old computer over to the new one. Will I be able to readily move these to the new Mac?Ī.
I have accumulated a large number of files over the years in various applications (notably Microsoft Word and Excel, Pages, Keynote and Keychain) on my current machine. I have a MacBook Air running Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6.8) and I am considering buying a new MacBook Air with the Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8) operating system.
