I keep getting my browser is no longer supported. how can I upgrade from mac os x 10.6.8 . Any help would be appreciated

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.

Can I upgrade from mac OSX 10.6.8 to 10.8?

Can I upgrade from mac OSX 10.6.8 to 10.8?

Same list as stedman1, but uses model numbers which is slightly more accurate.
Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion.
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
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) model number 2,1 or higher
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
Xserve (Early 2009) model number 3,1 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)
8 GB or more of available space
Check to make sure your applications are compatible. Application Compatibility
If you have applications that you want to use that aren’t compatible, you can retain Snow Leopard and create a new partition to install Mountain Lion on or you can run Snow Leopard server in a virtual mode.
If your computer isn't compatible, you might be able to upgrade to Lion. Computer Compatibility - Lion
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.

If your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard you do not need leopard.
Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x
It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
Do this first...

Can I upgrade from MAC OS 10.4.11 to 10.5?

I just bought a new printer that only has drivers for MAC OS 10.5 and above. My MacBook Pro is currently using MAC OS X 10.4.11. Can I upgrade to 10.5 or 10.6 from 10.4.11 and if so, how?

Hello, yes you can, assuming it meets these requirements, the $29 Snow Leopard/10.6 the cheapest...
Leopard requirements/10.5.x...
    * Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 (867MHz or faster) processor
minimum system requirements
    * 512MB of memory (I say 1.5GB for PPC at least, 2-3GB minimum for IntelMacs)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * 9GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
You have to call Apple & likely ask for a Product Specialist to get it, if they still have it!
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
   * Mac computer with an Intel processor
    * 1GB of memory (I say 2GB at least)
    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...

It looks like they might still have it...

If it's a core Duo & not a Core2Duo, then it'll only run in 32 bit mode.

Can I upgrade from Mac OS X 10.0 directly to 10.4 on my iMac G3?

can i go from 10.0 directly to 10.4 on my G3, and will the install affect the 9.2 that coexists currently w/10.0? i have a hp inkjet working under 9.2 that i don't know will work w/10.4 and i would like to continue to have it available(i do have the mac install disc from hp which i believe will work w/osx).

You will need at least 256mb of RAM to run Mac OS X 10.4 (512mb or more is better). You'll also need sufficient free space on the hard drive. Be sure to install any required firmware before doing the update; I don't know your specific G3 iMac model, but here's a list.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86117
Going from 10.0 to 10.4, it may be better to use the "archive and install" option rather than upgrading the existing installation. This gives you a fresh Mac OS X 10.4 System, rather than updating the existing System. Existing data, including the 9.2 System Folder will be preserved. It should not affect your ability to restart from that Mac OS 9.2 System Folder.
As a precaution, you should do the following. Back up your critical data. When you start up from the 10.4 Installation Disk, at the first Installer screen, go up to the menu and run Disk Utility. Use both the Repair Permissions and Repair routines (First Aid tab) on the internal drive.

Can i upgrade from Mac OS X 10.4.11

Is it possible to upgrade my Mac OS X 10.4.11

What is the model of your iMac? If it is a G4 or a G5, the last OS that you can upgrade to is Leopard, OS X 10.5, Snow Leopard will only work on intel iMacs.

Can I upgrade from Mac OS X Server 10.6.8 to Lion?

I am currenty running a Mac mini with Mac OS X Server 10.6.8 and would like to upgrade to plain Lion OS X, can I do this or will their be problems going from a server OS to the normal OS?

Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, click on More Info, and check the model identifier against the following, which are the earliest Macs of each type that can run Mountain Lion:
iMac7,1
MacBook5,1
MacBookPro3,1
MacBookAir2,1
Macmini3,1
MacPro3,1
Xserve3,1
If your system's compatible, buy it from the Mac App Store. A computer incapable of running Mountain Lion which has a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) or better CPU and at least 2GB of RAM can run Lion 10.7, which is available by phoning the online Apple Store and ordering a download code for it.

Can I upgrade from Mac OS X 10.4 directly to 10.6?

This is my first Apple system and it is all rather new and strange compared to Microsoft PCs.

Fist, what kind of iMac do you have? iMacs cover over a decade of models which translates into a hundred people years! Go to the Apple in the upper left corner, then "About This Mac", then "More..." and copy and paste the basic information there into a reply (omit the serial number).
If you have an Intel Mac then you can upgrade to 10.6 directly. If you have a PPC Mac then 10.5 is the farthest you can go. In either case you need black, retail version discs, not grey discs that will onyl work in a specific Mac model. It is common to see grey ones for sales on the used market, so beware.
The information in this post will help with any version of OSX: Texas Mac Man, Leopard disc sources - https://discussions.apple.com/message/16207246

Backup your computer.

Boot from Snow Leopard DVD.
Erase the hard drive.
Install Snow Leopard.
To get Snow Leopard:
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
           terms apply.
To upgrade further see:
Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mountain Lion to Mavericks
To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Lion, or Mountain Lion installed. Purchase and download Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
             Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

How can I upgrade from OSX 10.7 to 10.9 on my 2012 mac mini? (2.3 GHz, 4 GB, 500 GB SATA disk) I don't want OSX Yosemite.

How can I upgrade from OSX 10.7 to 10.9 on my 2012 mac mini? (2.3 GHz, 4 GB, 500 GB SATA disk) I don't want OSX Yosemite.

If your Mini shipped with OS X 10.7 Lion, then it was considered a 2011 build model, or before.
The Mini 2012 model, is considered a Late 2012, & the last one where RAM could be upgraded.
And it shipped with Mountain Lion 10.8, which is a fairly OK system if one had older software.
(However mine shipped in Dec 2014, with Mavericks 10.9.0, and was built in January 2014.)
There were a few different build versions of Late 2012 Mac Mini, the i5 or i7 processor,
in dual-core or quad-core, and some CTO or built-to-order versions with other specs.
You can buy Mountain Lion from online Apple Store, & use a download code emailed to you to
get the Mt. Lion 10.8 from Apple Servers; this would be about it, since Mavericks isn't available.
So hopefully that is an option you can exercise; in addition the computer may prefer more RAM.
Good luck & happy computing!
