How can I Download and use ibooks?

Hi All, I have iMac 10.6.8 Snow Leopard iMac. I want to create and upload a book to ipad using iBook but I need 10.7 or higher.
I have read some of the Forum answers but I am still a bit confused.
If I install Mavericks will that be happy on my iMac and will that enable me to download and use this iBook App please?
Any other clear and simple solutions gratefully received.
I do not want to buy a new computer just for iBook!  
Thank You.

Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks.
To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) model number 7,1 or higher
Your Mac needs:
OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
8 GB or more of available space
Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported after 10.6.      
Application Compatibility
Applications Compatibility (2)
If you can/do upgrade, I recommend you make a copy of the installer and move it out of your Applications folder. The installer self-destructs. The copy will keep you from having to download the installer again.  You can make a bootable USB stick to install using this free program.

  • I travel - a lot. I have apple accounts in Canada, US and Brazil. I want to consolidate and listen to my music and movies on one device. Right now there is a 90 day limit per account on each device. How can I download and use all my purchases?

    There must be a way for people who live in several countries or speak several languages to purchase music and movies in various national Apple IDs and then consolidate and listen to the media they own on just one device. How can I do that?

    There must be a way to get all the music and movies into one place. Maybe on Laptop rather than iPhone or iPad. I can get one set to one ID and the other to another, then switch to the third ID since I have not changed the two in 90 days. But I would need to download all media during the time each device is on each ID. Must be possible, but I don't know how.

    Hello Allan,
    thank you for your promt message. I have download the installer like many times before and install the flashplayer like many times before, too. But it does not work ... only getting the black screen ... but then, after checking some settings and defaults i realize that i have to switch in Safari > Security > Plug in to status activated !!!
    Shame on me and sorry for wasting your time, but i started with Mac 3 weeks before and have to leave windows-thinking !!! But i am convinced that mac is the better way ...

  • I need to use an earlier version 3.5 for testing something. I have 3.6. How can I download and install 3.5?

    I need to test a new learning management system used by my university in Firefox 3.5. This browser is certified for Blackboard 9.1 wheras 3.6 is not. I already upgraded to 3.6. How can I download and install 3.5?

    My advice is to install the Firefox Portable version that you need for Blackboard on your computer, and use that installation only for Blackboard. Continue to use 3.6 for all other web browsing. <br />
    FP 3.5.x is here: <br />

  • How can I download and view a pdf with iphone?

    How can I download and view a pdf with iphone?

    If the PDF is an email attachment, you can view it by tapping on the attachment icon while you are viewing the email message. Another option is to set up a dropbox account and then use a computer to drop the PDF into your account. Install the iOS dropbox app and you can view PDFs there that way.

  • Does my macbook air have a built in virus scan?  how can I access and use it? also any recommendations of what software if this is not avail ?

    does my macbook air have a built in virus scan?  how can I access and use it? also any recommendations of what software if this is not avail ?

    Contrary to what Geeks on Hugs is telling you, Mac OS X does indeed have a basic malware scanner. It is not a feature that is directly accessible to the user, and works a bit differently than every other malware scanner out there. Gatekeeper, which has been mentioned here, is entirely separate, and provides a different method for helping to protect you against malware.
    The anti-malware scanner in Mac OS X is called XProtect. When you download an application (or any other kind of executable code), it is automatically "quarantined," so that when you open it you're asked if you really want to do that. I'm sure you're very familiar with this aspect of Mac OS X if you have ever downloaded any apps from outside the App Store. What you don't know, though, is that each time you try to open a new app, that app is checked by XProtect. If it is identified as malware, you will not be allowed to open it, and will be warned that it's malware.
    At this time, there is no known malware that can infect a properly up-to-date Mac. All current malware will be blocked by one or more methods.
    For more information, see my Mac Malware Guide.

  • Can I download and use non-Universal Games like Bookworm and Word Whomp ?

    Can I download and use non-Universal Games like Bookworm and Word Whomp on my Macbook Pro? If I can, will they interfere with the computer's functions in any way? What about non-Universal widgets? Thanks.

    hi Chevaux - Welcome to apple discussions!
    i dont know how resource-intensive those apps are but you can certainly run them. if they are not universal binary they'll operate through an emulation layer called Rosetta. there's a performance penalty there, but if the app is not intensive in the first place, and/or you've maxxed out the RAM, you might very well not notice the penalty at all...
    i assume the same comments apply to non-UB widgets, but as i abhor Dashboard i don't use it at all.......
    cheers

    You need to look at the EULA for each app.
    There is the VPP where you get a discount for some educational app with a minimum purchase.

    You may want to use an MDM.

  • The Safari on my iMac is no longer supported, how can I download   and install a new version?

    The Safari browser on my iMac OSX 10.6.8 is no longer supported. How can I download and install a supported Safari browser?

    If you’re running Safari 5.1.10, you need to either upgrade the computer’s OS or switch browsers.
    To upgrade, open the Mac App Store and try downloading Yosemite. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
    Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility before upgrading. In particular, Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.

    Clarisworks, you need Appleworks, which will only work with Mac OS X10.6.8 or earlier.  See this tip if you must go newer.  Mac Pros with newer hardware configuration than July 20, 2011 can't use Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier without this tip and then it would be Mac OS X Server.  I'm not sure if the new black Mac Pro supports that configuration or not.
    iPhoto, there is an iPhoto for all versions of Mac OS X.
    iTunes, there is an iTunes for all versions of Mac OS X.  Note with iTunes versions 11 and later, which are needed for syncing with iOS 7 or or later, you will lose coverflow, if you liked that feature.  Sadly you can't run an older version of iTunes from within Mac OS X 10.9 or later.
    Sketchup: http://help.sketchup.com/en/article/60107 shows the versions that will work with intermediate Mac OS X versions, and this shows the latest version: http://help.sketchup.com/en/article/36208 be sure to click on the operating system you choose to use.
    GIF - Viewing GIFs Apple's Preview can do that.  Editing them, I like http://www.lemkesoft.com/ Graphicconverter.
    DMG is able to be opened by all versions of Mac OS X.  This are just "disk images" which store programs on a virtual disk that will open when double clicked.    Frequently you'll find the installer of the said program inside.  To find out if the program itself is compatible with 10.7 through 10.9, see http://www.roaringapps.com/
    Otherwise see the resources on:

    SWF files are flash files, which are not supported on the iPad : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/
    If you want to play the file then the iSwifter or Skyfire browser apps might work (they don't work on all flash sites) but you won't be able to download it
