I just bought a mac: Will they offer a free upgrade for those who recently purchased a machine?

Apple has in the past offered a free upgrade for a new OS if the new system was purchased up to 3 months prior. Counting the months...July, August, September...nope, I would say you are probably out of luck for a free upgrade.

No, at least when you buy it. I haven't had to update it yet so there could be a fee.

I would think that the next iMac shipment from Apple to all of it's re-sellers would include Leopard installed since they are available that way now at the Apple Store (and have been so awhile I believe). I've got a 24 incher on order too and am more concerned about that $100 rebate from Amazon which apparently expires next Monday 12/3. Amazon says it may be 3-5 weeks until this this model ships. I'm hoping they will show up a little early...like this week, before this rebate expires. Otherwise I may cancel and wait until after the first of the year to re-order.

As far as I know Mac books can not be upgraded with after market products. You pretty much have to buy a new Mac book or Apple services to upgrade if you computer is out of date.

You need to look this up on Apple's site. Just search "2010 macbook pro upgrades"

Not if you intend to use Windows 8. If you intend to use 8 or 8.1, this machine is now pre-loaded with 8. Upgrade to 8.1 is free and only takes a couple hours on a normal internet connection. If you intend to use Windows 7 however, you will have to purchase it separately and do a trick or two to install properly.

Microsoft has stated that there is no plan to release MS Office 2013 for Mac, only an update that would enable Microsoft's cloud storage option. Your free upgrade would presumably apply to the next Mac version, when it ultimately is delivered.

Absolutely !!! and it is generally a free upgrade. I am running OSX10.9.5 and my iMac is a 2009

It did upgrade some of my functions but it also has caused a bunch of problems. I would suggest that you take your MAC to an expert instead of doing it yourself, unless you are very good at computers.

No. It's a notebook so that generally means no upgrades. This goes for all notebook PCs, not just Apple notebooks; generally you're stuck with what you get when you bought the notebook.

Yes. My new Mac didn't even come with a disc drive. I downloaded everything from the website. Forewarned, it's a bit confusing as to what to download.

Make sure you're online and click the Apple menu (upper-left of screen the screen in the menu bar) and click "Software Update...". Then it will check for updates and you can click "Install". It will update you to version 10.4.11 for free.

I did it. It is free. If you don't get an upgrade offer came up when 1st initiating and Registering Windows after you start the machine the 1st time, you can Google "Windows 8.1 Upgrade" and select the download from the MS website. You can also check the list of updates in the Windows Update app in Control Panel. It takes a while to download and install.

Don't understand your question. Are you asking me how the computer works with the upgrade? I'm a little confuse.

Not familiar with Mac availability. Only know that it's worth about $9.95 at the most.

It's already been upgraded to Yosemite, but I still have the original disks that came with it so if you want you can start from scratch

I haven't had any problems at all. Are you doing your Mac upgrades as soon as requested? I just wish the Mac version was as large and as easy to use as the PC version
