What is the newest OS I can use on a 15-inch 2008 MacBook Pro (Early/Aluminum)

I've read some of the other posts about this, but there seems to be a bit of confusion.

And there are old rusty car fans whose collection
may include the 70s Maverick and Comet twins...!
A neighbor found an old car installed as a septic upgrade.
Not sure that affected the operating system in a good way
& it took an 'expert product specialist' not a genius, to fix.
Not sure about surfing, maybe names of internet cafés?

  • I'm running 10.5.8 PPC Mac. What is the newest version I can use?

    Answewed below.

    For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4.0 & 5.0, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />

    I am using os x 10.4.11 on a 2.4 ghz intel core 2 duo.  I don't believe I can install lion on this system but was wondering what is the highest version I can use?

    Here are the requirements for Lion:
    http://osxdaily.com/2011/06/07/mac-os-x-10-7-lion-system-requirements/
    In order to install Lion you have to have Snow Leopard and then update to 10.6.8:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Personally I suggest that you stop at Snow Leopard.  It still is the most efficient OS that Apple has devised and it still works great.  Go to the Lions only if there are feature that you really need.  There may be a price to pay in slower performance though.

  • What is the latest OS I can use with a mac G5 with a dual 2.3 Ghz PowerPC G5 processor?

    What is the latest OS I can use with a mac G5 with a dual 2.3 Ghz PowerPC G5 processor? Everything on my computer has been running so slowly in the last few weeks. Have I finally outgrown OS 10.4.11? Would there be some other problem that would sudden make all my speed take a nose dive? I have 8.5 gigs of RAM...  Please advise!
    Thanks!  Matthew

    Everything on my computer has been running so slowly in the last few weeks.
    First open Console in Applications>Utilities, see if you have reapeating messages.
    How much Free Space do you have on the Hard Drive?
    At this point I think you should get Applejack...
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
    After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
    At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
    The 6 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
    Trash old Log files.
    First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
    Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.

  • What version of LR should I choose to run it on a 2008 macbook pro OS 10.5 (updated with 8GB RAM)

    As it says in the title: I want to run LR on my 2008 macbook pro OS 10.5 (updated with 8GB RAM). Adobe support told me that it would not be a problem, yet i'm confronted with a com.apple.installer.pagecontroller error -1. I have no idea what it is or how to solve it.
    Can you please help me? Thank you.

    You will not be able to use a LR 5 key on an older LR. While an intermediate version of OS X may be easier on your system and may allow a newer version of LR than LR3, if it is not current you still have to get that old version of LR from an alternate channel.
    If you have an easy way to clone your system I would try upgrade you Yosemite and putting LR 5 on it since you have a key. If it doesn't perform to your satisfaction you can always clone back to 10.5 and seek an alternate solution.
    However, was the LR 5 key owned by your previous job along with that other laptop? If so, it violates the license for you to use it.

  • I have an I phone 3G -what is the latest software I can use ,which is still workable?

    I have an I phone 3 G - what is the last software version still workbale to use on it?

    You would definitely want to get more RAM as you only have 2 GB - although that is stated as a minimum for Yosemite, the reality is that you want at least 4 GB or you won't be happy with its performance. If this is yours:
    http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/imac/specs/imac-core-2-duo-2.8-24-inch-alu minum-early-2008-penryn-specs.html
    you could either get 2 x 2 GB RAM or 1 X 2 GB plus 1 x 4 GB:

  • What's the solution to a frozen iTunes movie rental on a current Macbook Pro with current software? I think perhaps no one knows.

    I rented Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Extended Version) tonight, because I'm taking my family to Universal's Wizarding World of Harry Potter tomorrow. This is the kind of event that can't happen just any ol' day; it's expensive, a big deal for everyone, and we were very excited to watch the first HP movie tonight to help set the tone for our getaway. 44 minutes into the movie, it froze, just before the "sorting hat" comes to life. Boy were the kids dissappointed. And the parents. Ugh.
    I have a 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5 13" Macbook Pro with 8GB of memory, running OS X vs.10.6.8 with iTunes 10.5.2. I have rented movies many times from the iTunes Store without issue on this computer and also another. Once upon a time, I rented the HD version of a movie and it wouldn't play. I recieved a refund, and rented the non-HD version and it played without flaw, although it wasn't until the following day. In this case, tomorrow is too late, Apple.
    Many thanks to anyone who can shed some light on this!
    And is this the end of the world? No. However, I must say how dissappointed and irritated I am about this, and here is why: I can't believe that SO MANY people have this same exact problem--it's posted all over the internet--yet every thread I've seen has NO SOLUTION, and no responses from Apple employees. If the answer is out there somewhere, which I certainly don't doubt, how about making it a little EASIER TO FIND? From what I have read, this is a problem that has been occuring for years now.
    We have been devout Apple customers--computers, iphones, ipods, ipads, itunes purchases out the wazoo--I'm a big supporter of the whole kit and kaboodle. I really regret not having simply rented this movie from Comcast on demand tonight, though. It was the same price. In fact, I would do that right now, however it's well past the kids bedtime. I wrongly assumed I would find a solution with a little searching after I saw how many people have had this same problem. My bad... I guess...
    Honestly, I'm seeing myself using the iTunes Store as a last resort to rent a movie from now on. After you've gotten involved in a movie, it kind of ruins the mood when it stops playing, even if you do have the time to fiddle around troubleshooting or wait a day or two for a response.

    If your HDTV is HDCP compliant, you probably will have no problems. But you might want to read this information which while written a while back still, to the best of my knowledge, applies:
    http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/16488
    HDCP compliance is, from what I've read, rather a "rubber ruler" so even if your TV lists as being HDCP, it might or might not work correctly with your Mac. Testing with one movie first might avoid an expensive surprise.
    As to your complaint to Apple, it probably wasn't up to Apple but instead was forced on them as part of the conditions by the content owners for licensing movies and shows to the iTunes Store. But feel free to comment to Apple via their feedback pages:

  • What are the Windows Experience Index numbers for Windows 7 running on a MacBook Pro 13 Retina Display?

    I am curious to know what speed those running Windows 7 on a MacBook Pro 13" Retina Display are obtaining.  I am interested in purchasing a MacBook Pro 13" Retina (i7) and will be running Windows 7 frequently since some of my business software only runs under Windows.  I have heard that the best PC is a Mac.  Just wanted to confirm the Windows Experience Index values are for those MacBook Pro users are seeing when running Windows 7.  The Windows 7 Experience Index numbers include one for Processor speed, Memory (RAM) speed, Graphics speed, Gaming graphics speed, and Primary Disk speed.

    Hi - I connected my superdrive but it does not seem to be working - now all I get is a black screen with the prompt - no bootable device; insert boot disk and press any key.
    Any thoughts on this? I put an ISO image on my desktop and also created an image on a USB drive - however it has encryption software on it which did not get overwritten so Im not sure if this is why that won't boot.
    Does anyone know if the Superdrive can't be used?

  • What is a SSD and can I install one into my 2008 Macbook Pro?

    I searched through some older threads about this and have obtained some basic information. Mainly that I should install a SSD but I'm not 100% what that is. I'm not super tech savy though so any help would be most appreciated. when I took my MBP to the Apple store the genius there called my computer vintage and said I should just buy a new one because there wasn't anything I could do it to make it faster. was he right?
    here's my macbooks specs.
    MacBook Pro (15-inch Early 2008)
    2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT 256 MB
    thoughts? thanks!!!!

    Replacing a HD with an SSD can give a remarkable boost in performance though you'd still have a vintage Mac. You can check out OWC as a reliable source for SSD's and look at their installation videos to see what the job is like.

  • What is the best way to download pictures from 5D Mark II to MacBook Pro

    when i transfer my pictures from 5D Mark II camera to MacBook Pro IPhoto, the older photos that are already on computer are put on again even though I on click selected photos

    Do you delete the pictures from the SD card after you copy them to the Mac?
    I use Aperture (and not iPhoto), and the default there is to import everything that is on the SD card, so you'd have to pick individual pictures instead of the entire card/folder. I would assume the iPhoto would exhibit the same behavior.
