How can i get Intel Core 2 Duo?

I have an iMac Mac OS X Version 10.6.8, how can i get Intel Core 2 Duo?

You are in the Snow Leopard forum. Snow Leopard requires an Intel processor. Maybe you think that's what you need in order to run TM. But you don't, you need Leopard. Snow Leopard will not run on your Mac.
I see you are running Tiger. You need to get the Leopard Install DVD. You can't download Leopard. Post back if you want to know how to get the DVD. It may still be available from Apple.
Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard requires:
A Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or Power PC G4 (867 MHz or faster) processor
512 MB memory or more
A DVD drive for installation
9 GB of available disk space or more
Some features require a compatible Internet service provider, fees may apply.
Some features require Apple's MobileMe service; fees apply.
EDIT: And, you don't have to have Time Machine. You can make a very good backup with Tiger, which will be an exact clone of your internal drive, using several programs, one of which is free. Post back if you want more information.

How can I create a start up disk for a old intel core duo running 10.5.8.. Computer works fine, but can't find install disk.

How can I create a start up disk for a old intel core duo running 10.5.8.. Computer works fine, but can't find install disk. Want to use internal disk drive or USD flash drive.

Try calling 1-800-676-2775. Give the serial number and thy *may* still burn you new install disks designed just for the hrdware in your system (for a fee, something like $160 per disk). *May* is only because they may not burn disks for Leopard anymore.
If they do not burn them for you, you can buy Leopard disks off Amazon or eBay for about $200.
Have you considered Snow Leopard?. Those disks only cost $19 (single user) or $29 (5-user license) through Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE.

Have MacBook Pro (ancient) has 2.16 Ghz Intel Core Duo with 1 GB 667 MHz RAM using OS 10.4.11. Can I upgrade OS? If so, how far? And can I add more memory? I realize this is an old laptop but I need to wait to upgrade to new.

I have a MacBook Pro with Intel Core Duo and Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Want to upgrade to Lion to take advantage of icloud. Is there anything I can do without getting a new MacPro?

I have a MacBook Pro with Intel Core Duo and Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Would like to upgrade to Lion but it requires a minimum of Intel Core 2 Duo. Can I get what I need or do I have to buy new MacBok Pro?

I also have a core duo MBP with Snow Leopard and it runs perfectly. There are very few things it cannot do as compared to the faster, newer MBPs, but that is attributable to the CPU, not the OS. There are some who view Lion as downgrade rather than as an improvement. If there are important applications that reqire a fast CPU or Lion features that you find essential, by all means get a new MBP.
I have an aphorism: Obsolescence is more often a perception rather than a reality. Besides the silver keys look much classier than the black ones.
Ciao.

I have a Mac running OS X 10.4.11 with a 1.83 intel core duo what is the highest operating system upgrade that I can get?

You can check to see if yours meets the system requirements for Snow Leopard - that would be the highest; Lion will not run on your machine.
Please note that the minimum 1 GB RAM is a minimum - 2 GB would be better.

You can buy it at the Apple Store, other online resellers, or ebay (but be careful there to only bid on a new retail shrinkwrapped package to you don't get suckered into a used install disk which won't work on other machines).

That's strange...
Resetting PRAM might help: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238
If that doesn't help, I'd recommend contacting AppleCare.
it seem to be lcd problem

My Mac has an 1.86 Intel Core Duo, does that mean I can't get Lion?

My Mac has a 1.86 Intel Core Duo, which is not listed for use with Lion, but I'm wondering how if it would work anyway. Just replaced the harddrive recently, and it otherwise meets our needs, don't want to upgrade, but want to use ICloud. Any thoughts?

It won't work at all. Lion will not allow you to install on a Core Duo because Lion requires a 64-bit processor. Your computer is only 32-bit. You can either sell your computer or give it away and buy a newer model.

Intel Core Duo - can't get USB modems to work

Hi, I have a broadband account with Tiscali who have now provided me with two USB DSL modems (Speedtouch 330 & Sagem 800) but I still can't get either to work. (My system is the 20" Imac Intel Core Duo)
I've installed latest OS X (10.4.6), tried drivers from Tiscali website and modem manufacturer's but still nothing (system says modem is not connected - both green lights stay on on Sagem, one red on speedtouch).
If anyone can offer advice, or if anyone has an alternative that's working for them I'd much appretiate the advice.
Thank you
Lee

Solution is stated as an ADSL Router - will this be compatible with Tiscali my internet broadband supplier?
Thanks
An ADSL router is compatible with all UK ADSL isp's.
Don't use a d-link modem unless you already own a standard router. I would suggest you get an ADSL router. An ADSL router is a modem and router combined.
The netgear box that was already suggested in this thread can be source for about £60 if you shop around and is a doddle to setup.
otherwise you can find cheap adsl routers at http://www.solwise.co.uk from Hull.

Can't force iMovie HD 6 on Intel Core Duo iMac into Rosetta from get info.

I can't get it to force imovie hd 6 into rosetta mode from get info. (doesn't show words and check box "force Rosetta" like other programs. If it can't, how can i get chromakey on imovie?

Last night, I was trying to do this as well. I was attemping to get plugins that worked with iMovie5 and clicking the Rosetta option was supposed to be work-around. I am guessing it no longer works with the latest versions of the Intel systems or iMovie.
