Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You must 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

  • "This update requires Mac OS X 10.6.7" !? i installed 10.6.8

    hello i have a problem when i install new safari it say ; This update requires Mac OS X 10.6.7" but i have 10.6.8 !!! why ?

    Don't Uninstall Safari. It rarely does any good, and often just creates more of a mess.
    The CT problem is handled this way
    Close Safari.
    Check here for CT Loader
    Locate and delete:
    HD/Library/Application Support/Conduit
    HD/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
    HD/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
    HD/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
    HD/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
    HD/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
    It may not be in every single location, but get it out where ever you find it.
    Restart Safari. Any Better?
    If it's already uninstalled, try the combo update to get SAfari back.
    Or reinstall from your Install Disk.

    You will need to Upgrade to Snow Leopard to get a Compatible version of iTunes to Sync your Device.
    Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x
    It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
    Do this first...
    Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
    Snow Leopard Tech Specs
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    If so... Purchase a Snow Leopard Install Disc...

    After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
    Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...

  • Went to install os mavericks and got this message: MacBook Air Flash Storage Firmware Update 1.1 need. tried that and got: This update requires Mac OS X 10.7.5 or 10.8.5 or later, please advise.

    OK. Now, you say you got this alert through App Store when trying to download Mavericks or after you downloaded it and were trying to install it? Which is the correct case?
    The error you are getting may sometimes occur when the computer has already been updated, but I don't know why you would be getting this message. I can only suggest that you take it in for service to find out why this is happening.

  • TS2310 what does it mean when you're about to install itunes and it says This update requires OS X version 10.6.8 or later.??? i don't understand... Can someone please explain to me what that means...??? And how to fix it.

    1. It means exactly what it says. Apple dropped support for earlier Mac OS X versions in iTunes 10.7.
    2. Update the computer to 10.6.8. If it's running a Mac OS X version prior to 10.6, this requires buying a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store, which requires an Intel Mac with at least 1GB of RAM.

    If you want to solve your problems, unjailbreak. And don't do it again, because jailbreaking causes problems as you read about in that article. You can try Recovery Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • HT3258 why do I keep receiving this messagesoftware requires Mac OS X 10.6.3 or newer.

    why do I keep receiving this messagesoftware requires Mac OS X 10.6.3 or newer.

    It would have helped to provide the context. For what you have provided one can only assume it's because you are trying to run software that requires 10.6.3 or later.

  • Why does my Macbook say, "This software requires Mac OS X 10.6 to be installed"

    I am so confused. Its not letting me use itunes store, or anything. I cant hook up my phone and put songs on my computer or anything. And everytime I try to update it says system is up to date. ???????? What is going on with my computer? I neeed help!

    Your 10.5.8 Leoaprd may be up to date, but your latest gadgets require a new operating system being 10.6 Snow Leopard. This is available on DVD from the online store. Costs approx $20.
    Here is the US example.
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Once installed you then can do further free updates.
    This depends if your computer can handle the upgrade. These are the requirments.
    Snow Leopard General requirements
    Mac computer with an Intel processor
    1GB of memory but 2GB is recommended.
    5GB of available disk space
    DVD drive for installation

  • You cannot install Safari on this volume. This update requires Mac OS X 10.

    This is the problem I run into when trying to install Safari 3.1. Have tried several times with fresh downloads. What's worse is that I deleted the version of Safari I had prior to this, so now I have no Safari whatsoever. Anybody out there know how to go around this? I do have the newest version of Leopard.

    See my answer to your other post.

  • This update requires Mac OS X version 10.7. ?

    Currently have OS X Version 10.6.8 Installed and I cannot download and intall Lion.  Everytime I log in an obtain availability through Itunes Store, Lion Icon Download states it is starting and then Just states "Waiting"  I have downloaded the updates 7.1 and 7.2 but I can not install.  ? ? ? ? ? How can I install Lion on my MacBook Pro ? ? ? ?

    Sounds like you're downloading the updates to Lion 10.7. Follow wjosten's advice. You first need to purchase it from the App store, then install it and then run the updates.

  • Tried updating my apps it keeps saying this update is not available for this apple id either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled
