Can't update my MacBook Pro

Hello. I am trying to update my MacBook Pro and it doesn't seem to work. I'm using OS X 10.6.8. I follow all the logic steps: search for updates and restart the computer. But everytime I restart it, nothing's changed. Still have the same old version of all programs that I wanted to update. Could anyone help me?

If your system is at 10.6.8, then that's the last version of Snow Leopard that was released and there are no more updates for it.
As for applications, you can set most current apps to automatically check at start up (or whenever you choose) for updates. Again, if there are no updates available, you won't be notified.
What types of updates, or which applications, are you looking for updates to?

  • HT4134 can I update my MacBook Pro which has Safari 5.1.10 to OS X?  If I can, how do I do it?

    Can I update my MacBook Pro (4yrs old) which has Safari 5.1.10 to OS X?  If yes, how do I do it?  I need to use iCloud but don't know how to load it.  I think it takes OS7 and I guess I still have 5.1.10.  All help is appreciated. Thanks

    It is not really clear just what you need to do to update:
    Go to the apple at the left side of the menu bar, About This Mac and what does it show for the Mac OS X version, under the Apple logo?
    Also, what else does it say about the processor and memory?

  • How can I update my Macbook Pro 13inch 10.5.8 to 10.6

    I have bought Lion and Mountain Lion came out yesterday. But I wanted to restore my Macbook Pro and put in my Install DVD that came with my Mac. I bought my Macbook Pro in late 2009. When I restored my mac, it gave me tons of updates and the last update ended on 10.5.8. I want to have Lion but I can't update to 10.6 because it says my Mac is already up to date. How can I update it to 10.6 ???

    Where can I buy it? I have the disk that came with my Macbook when I bought it..

  • Can I update my macbook pro late 2011 to use bluetooth 4.0

    I got  a late 2011 Mac book pro currently running on Mac OS 10.9.5. I wish to update to Yosmite only if I have continuity and Handoff features are supported.
    Please do provide me with series of steps to update the Late Mac book pro to support the Handsoff and continuity in Yosmite.

    Is it a 21.5 or 27" ? Try to look at ifixit : https://fr.ifixit.com/Guide/iMac+Intel+21.5-Inch+EMC+2428+Bluetooth+Board+Replac ement/5948
    It seems the board doesn't match macbook pro's at all.
    Look at iMac 2012 : https://fr.ifixit.com/Guide/iMac+Intel+21.5-Inch+EMC+2544+AirPort-Bluetooth+Card +Replacement/16607.
    Look at what a member wrote :
    I successfully upgraded the Wi-Fi Bluetooth card in my late 2012 iMac to 802.11ac following this guide! The new card is now the same as what´s in the new 2013 iMacs, I used the 2013 iMac teardown to find the right part:)

    So, 2012 can be upgraded to 2013 wifi ac/bluetooth but 2011 is a totally different story, my 2 cents ? forget about it, or hope i'm wrong.

  • I can't update my MacBook Pro Late 2011 NSURLErrorDomain error - 1012.)( - 1012)

    This is what I get whenever I try to update my OS X to 10.8.5
    I have MacBook Pro 15" With OS X 10.7
    I bought OS X 10.8 from day one and I was updating everything were normal
    until today ?
    what should I do ?
    How to fix this ?

    You might try this:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    Then download and install: OS X Mountain Lion Update v10.8.5 (Combo).

  • Can't update my MacBook Pro 13

    I'm using the late 2011/early 2012 MacBook Pro 13"
    It's neved been updated since we got it, i've tried the Software Update, and it keeps coming up with the same error message, even when i try download them one by one.
    "The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during dowloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs."
    I've had luck with a few downloads been able to download them straight from the apple website.
    Updates that are currently on the Software Update tool are:
    Safari
    AirPort Utility
    MacBook Pro EFI Firmware Update
    iTunes
    Remote Desktop Client Update
    I'm not sure what the problem is, i have suffecient internet and have tried multiple times with the same error occuring over and over again.
    Thanks,

    Google is your friend. Don't know why your updates aren't automatically downloading and installing, though.

  • I can't update my macbook pro because my app store won't switch user id. how do i fix this

    how can i switch my apple id on my app store i tried to sign out and sign back in and i can't get it to change

    If you're running Mac OS X 10.9, it's in the Mac App Store. If your computer's incapable of running Mac OS X 10.9, install it from the computer's original disks.
    If you don't want to upgrade to 10.9 for some reason and you got 10.7 or newer with the Mac, go to the Mac App Store main page, click on Support under Quick Links, contact Apple, and see what they say.

  • HT1338 I updated my MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion and now it is starting slow and opening with some of the programs. How can I fix the problem?

    I updated my MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion and now it is slow in starting up and loads a number of probrams. How can I fix the problem?

    Have you tried starting in Safe Mode and see if the slowness still occurs?
    Restart holding the "shift" key.
    (Expect it to take longer to start this way because it runs a directory check first.)
    If this works look in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login items and delete any third party login items (-), you can always add them back with the (+). Also look in /Library/Startup Items. Nothing is put in that folder by default, so anything in there is yours.
    Reboot normally and test.

  • After updating my MacBook Pro to yeosemite I want my old screen saver picture back. I did a full back up before the install. I found the "Settings" folder in Time machine but when I try to open it I get an error message saying "You can not open this

    After updating my MacBook Pro to yeosemite I want my old desktop picture back. I did a full back up before the install. I found the "Settings" folder in Time machine but when I try to open it I get an error message saying "You can not open this folder. It is in TimeMachine".

    Can you browse the Time Machine drive from Finder?
    If you can and you know where the picture was stored ie on your desktop you can browse through the folder structure to the picture copy it and paste it somewhere on your new install before right clicking it and 'set as desktop background'

    While updating my MacBook Pro to the newest software, it froze with a grayish screen with a Apple logo and a frozen pinwheel right below it. What can I do to finish updating or to fix this problem?

    We can't help you if you don't even know what you are installing.  Never install anything if you do not know what it is.  Installings through Software Update always have explanations which you should be reading to see if you actually need and/or want them.
    That being said, it appears you attempted to upgrade to Mavarick.  Although I am not positive. 
    Sorry, I am going to back out of this because I nor you know what it was you installed.  Hopefully, someone else will chime in here. 
    GOOD LUCK!
