Maxx tried to install my new RAM chips into the iMac today, but he had trouble removing the existing ones, so we managed to pop into the MAC store and they were kind enough to assist, so I now have 4GB RAM, needed to upgrade to Lion or Mountain Lion.
So, when we got home I went ahead and upgraded to Snow Leopard, as I needed to get that installed to be able to upgrade the OS further. Then, I couldn't find Lion on the Mac store page, and when I tried to simply install Mountain Lion, my computer indicated it wasn't compatible (although it wouldn't tell me why).
I got in touch with tech support, to see if we could figure out why, and it turns out although I purchased the computer in June of 2007, iMacs purchased from mid-2007 and more recently could have the new OS installed, so I guess I bought it a couple of months too early, years ago!
Oh, well, I'd really wanted to upgrade so I could get my iTunes upgraded, and could then in turn upgrade my phone. So, got iTunes set up and it's the newest version, no issues. Then trying to synch my phone and there was an issue with the back up, then with re-initializing the phone, which I finally got to work. Thought I lost all my photos but managed to get them restored, but still don't have my music from the computer showing on the phone, and now iTunes isn't offering me an option to synch my phone. At this point, trying to get iMatch to enable so I can get the music to sync through the cloud. We'll see how it goes!
