Can I upgrade iWorks'08 to iWorks'09 on Mac OS 10.7.5?

I have iWorks'08 (Pages 3.0.3, Numbers 1.0.3 , Keynote 4.0.4) on my MacBook Air using Mac OS 10.7.5. I bought a new iMac (10.10.03) with Pages 5.5.3, Numbers 3.5.3, Keynote 6.5.3). When I try to open a document, it says I need to save them in iWorks 9. Can I upgrade for free on my MacBook Air?

Apple no longer sells the iWork '08, or iWork '09 DVDs, or offers the individual applications through the OS X App Store. If you still have the iWork '08 DVD, you can install it on Yosemite 10.10.3, and then apply the individual iWork '08 application updates. This will get you a free iWork '08 that works on Yosemite. Then you can export your Pages '08 documents as Word documents, and they will open in Pages v5.5.3.
iWork '08 updaters (assume iWork '08 installed):
Pages '08 v3.0.3
Numbers '08 v1.0.3
Keynote '08 v4.0.4
For less than $25USD, you can purchase the iWork '09 DVD and immediately apply the Apple iWork 9.3 updater to it. This too runs on Yosemite, offers improved features over iWork '08, and 100+ feature improvements over Pages v5.5.3. Don't use any of the free Pages, Numbers, or Keynote that came with your iMac.This would be my recommendation, and then look for a longer-term word processor that allows you independence from proprietary Apple documents.

HT1444 can I upgrade Mountain Lion to a Mac 10.5.8

can I upgrade Mountain Lion to a Mac 10.5.8?

It depends upon your Mac. Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About this Mac" and "More Info..." Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).

Incidentally, you posted this in the 10.3 and earlier forum. Nobody is going to see it here so it would be good if you selected the correct forum next time you ask a question.

Can i upgrade to 10.5 on mac mini power pc 1.4ghz

can i upgrade to 10.5 on mac mini power pc 1.4ghz   I'm at 10.4.11 and nothing works anymore ?

Hi James, yes you can.
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)
Classic/OS9 Apps no longer supported.
Trouble is Apple no longer sells it, check eBay & such for the Retail version, not the Gray Discs...
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=mac+os+x+leopard+retail+10.5
But if it's a better Browser you need, then...
TenFourFox is the most up to date browser for our PPCs, they even have G4 & G5 optimized versions...
http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
I'd avoid version 24 though, as it no longer supports plug-ins like Flash.
http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/downloads/list
SeaMonkey seems pretty fast also, with many options...
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/
The last version with Mac OS 10.4 and PPC support was SeaMonkey 2.0.14.
The last version seamonkey-for-ppc - 2.26 RELEASE - Mac OS X 10.5.x - PPC.

Might also look into iCab & OmniWeb versions.

Can I upgrade my PowerBook G4 from Mac OS X Tiger to Snow Leopard?

I am running Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.11 on my PowerBook G4. Can I upgrade to v10.6 Snow Leopard? Just asking because I never upgraded to v10.5 Leopard. Are there any adverse impacts of doing this for my PowerBook G4?

Hi jjhron;
As Stedman says you can't go to Snow Leopard with your G4 PowerBook but if your PB meets the specs for Leopard you can upgrade to that instead.

Can't upgrade because I am running MAC OSX 10.4.11 on a MacMini. Am I still secure?

I am getting alerts that my version of Firefox will not be supported much longer but I can't find an upgrade that works on my Mac Mini running MAC OSX 10.4.11. Shall I use a different browser?

As of Firefox 4.0 and newer one needs both OSX 10.5+ and '''Intel''' hardware. You have PPC. http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/9.0/system-requirements/
Two options since you have PPC: either continue to use Firefox 3.6 (3.6.25 is current, released yesterday) which you have. http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
Or you can use a third-party build from http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/ in order to have Firefox 9.0 though do note http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/PluginsNoLongerSupported

Can i upgrade from elements 2.02 (Mac)?

I have an ancient version of Photoshop Elements 2.02 for the Mac. Can I upgrade to Elements 10 for the Mac or do I have to buy an entirely new version?
Will Elements 10 for the Mac allow me to save in PDF and/or EPS?
Thanks.

You can usually buy the regular version for a lot less than the upgrade if you shop around but yes, any registered version qualifies for the upgrade.
You can create a PDF in any program on a mac, and yes, PSE 10 lets you save as EPS.

I have a Mac Pro 1.1 (2006).....Can I upgrade to ATI 5770 for MAC?

I have a 2006 MAC Pro intel......Need to upgrade my Graphics card to acess all of the effects in my Final Cut Pro 4 Studio. Hoping I can go with an ATI 5770 since it will also work with FCPX "IF" I ever decide to upgrade to LION and FCPX. I have had mixed findings and can't seem to get a straight answer from APPLE. Do I need the 5770 for MAC or do I need the (Upgrade fro MAC) kit? I have 10.6.4 (snow leopard as an OS and don't want to upgrade to Lion yet because I don't want to use FCPX.

you won't get straight answer and yet there are dozens in the comments section of the product page for 5770 from MacPro1,1 owners running 10.6.5+.
Not sure what you mean by "upgrade kit" vs "5770 for Mac" but you want Apple card and possibly power connector.

You are probably going to want to upgrade your memory (RAM). While 2 GB is the stated minimum, realistically 4 GB seems to be the consensus minimum. More is better.
The 2 places I’ve seen recommended most to buy reliable RAM are below. I have purchased RAM several times from Other World Computing and have always been very satisfied with the product and service. They have on-line instructions on how to replace the RAM. OWC has also tested RAM above what Apple states is the maximum. I now have 6GB installed on a machine supposedly limited to 4 GB.

Can I upgrade to snow leopard from mac os 10.4.11?

I have an iMac purchased mid 2006 with operating system 10.4.11. I don't think I have enough memory for the upgrade (only 512 MB) and I can't seem to find it on line? can anyone help?

upgrade (only 512 MB) and I can't seem to find it on line?
Here is a link so you can find out which iMac you have; since there are several different models, here is the link to one (if that's not it, check out the others):
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/imac/stats/imac_cd_1.83_17_ig.html
According to that, you can go to a total of 2 GB which I would recommend (1 GB will not be enough):
IF that is your iMac, here is the RAM you need:

(A matched 2 GB pair is less than $37).
Make sure though I picked the right Mac before proceeding..... That site also has great how-to-install videos.

While it is possible, doing so is in direct violation of Apple's EULA. It is illegal. As others have said, search before posting. Furthermore, Apple has designed OSX for a known set of hardware that they design themselves. If you do manage to get it installed, it likely won't work as advertised.
Given your current setup, I would suggest that you try to sell off your current laptop and get an MacBook Air (or MacBook Pro if you can get enough from your laptop). The MacBook Air currently starts at just under 1k - or just over for the larger screen.
Would you mind providing your working budget?

Can I upgrade to OS Yosemite from Mac OS X 10.6.8?

I have looked at the specification requirements but I don't get it. I thought because my computer is version 10.6.8, I could do the upgrade but it won't let me. Do I need to upgrade to Lion or Snow Leopard first?

1. Check your Mac hardware.
To get details about your Mac model, click the Apple icon at the top left of your screen, choose About This Mac, then choose More Info. These Mac models are compatible with OS X Yosemite:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)

I have CS5 Master Collection for Win. Can I upgrade to 5.5 for Mac?

I currently have Master Collection 4 for Mac, and Master Collection 4 for Win. I upgraded to CS5 for Win using my CS4 for Win license.
Since it costs less to upgrade from CS5 to 5.5 and Adobe doesn't allow one license key to be flip-flopped between platforms , I am consolidating all my software and am choosing OS X.
Is it possible to purchase the 5.5 upgrade to OS X by citing CS5 for Win?
Thx!

The other possibility...and you'd have to act very fast, is to do a platform swap now of CS5. The benefit there would be that you would get to legally have CS5 and CS5.5. If you wait and upgrade to 5.5 using the crossplatform upgrade, you'll need to destroy the old CS5 media and delete the software.
Could come in handy especially for InDesign.

Can I upgrade hard drive on 2007 mac book

I have a white mac book from 2007. Is it possible to upgrade the hard drive to increase storage for my thousands of photos?

Yes, but not easy. Visit OWC for replacement drives and video tutorials for disassembly and toolkits.

CAN'T UPGRADE BECAUSE CAN'T AFFORD FC STUDIO, SO OTHER PROBS ARISE!

This is a problem which is building one step at a time, and it begins with OSX upgrades. I had to stop at 10.4.8 because - as a long-time user (professionally) of Final Cut Pro, upgrading beyond that renders many aspects of my version (4.5 HD) useless along with DVD Studio Pro, Compressor, etc. (those bundled with it). I found out the hard way, and had to downgrade back to 10.4.8.
However, now items such as my Address Book, iCal and Mail - which I use because of the compatability issues we all used to love about Macs, are not sync-able on .mac. The systems says I must have the 'latest version' - which is part of the new operating system (which I can not upgrade to!)
Therefore my .mac account, my ability to access the info I need when at a remote location, all are stuck in the water because Mac will not 'support' Final Cut Pro 4.5HD... I appreciate how good Final Cut Studio is: I have purchased it for school's I work with and used it myself at work locations, but personally, the $699.00 upgrade to FC Studio is not feasible for me at this time. The $199.00 upgrade was offered only until March of this year - and it was not brought to my attention until it was too late and unaffordable.
Does anybody have any ideas? I am looking for solutions.. and appreciate your input.
Respctfully,
Brent Weber
G5 dual 2 ghz ppc 1 gb ddr sdram Mac OS X (10.4.8) FINAL CUT HD, ISYNC 2.3

Thanks for the input; you are all correct - especially Gig - in that FCS is a significant upward change. I have used it, purchased it for some schools and kick myself every day i didn't get the 199 update info in time. i know they offered it for a while, but I was changing residences and missed out. I begged Apple to make an exception, but they refused. It's business. Truthfully, i need to just suck it up and get the FCS and yes - more gigs, Gig!
For now, live with my woes...most of work currently is done through a day job in the business, so my side businesses are not the priority any way. As you said G, I am sure I could make it back fairly quickly...
So quit whining, BH Weber!
Thanks as always guys...

Upgrade to Photoshop CS5 with Mac OS 10.4.11

I am running Tiger 10.4.11 Tigger as I have film scanners that cannot run on the newer 10.5 and 10.6 OS. Can I upgrade to CS5 while running Mac OS 10.4.11. I am using two dual-core intel Xeon processors.

Jeff will creative suite 4 web premium run with Mac os 10.4.11?
Michael
No...
Leopard 10.5.4 (I think it's 10.5.4, might be 10.5.5) is minimum...the
installer won't even run in Tiger...
Time to do a dual boot install...or a new scanner.
