How can I identify what OS my Macbook pro is running?

Can't get this computer to tell me what the heck I'm running.

As stated, you are on Snow Leopard, you can upgrade to Lion (10.7.xx) if your intention is to use iCloud on your phone, you can also use iCloud without upgrading to Lion but it will (a) be a more complex setup procedure and (b) more expensive as you will have to purchase additional software if intending to use contacts and calendars as well as Mail.
If you do intend on upgrading to Lion please note the minimum requirements (Core 2 Duo processor and 2G of Ram) the real world requirement (4G of Ram) and you should verify that your software will continue to run after Lion (Office 2004 does not work but 2008 and 2011 do) any PPC program that you have will not work so check first.
Finally
Backup

Backup
Just in case.

  • HT2397 How can I check what region my Macbook pro has been set at.

    How can I check what region my Macbook pro has been set at?

    It will have been set for the region in which it was purchased.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2397
    Once you have set the region in DVD Player five times it cannot be changed. However see tis also:

    Instead, use VLC to view videos from different regions:

  • How can I improve the speed my macbook pro is running at without upgrading hardware?

    Okay, I have a standard macbook pro, software is all fully up to date as is my OS, however over the past month or so it seems the mac often takes a fair few seconds to carry out certain functions, and comes up with the multi-coloured loading cursor thing often. It's not a case of memory as I have over 2/3rds of my disk space clear and I don't think my CPU is over-burdened as the monitor shows (if any of these processes are suspect please let me know):
    I've ran a malware scan, and it came back with nothing bar a few tracking cookies but I doubt they're responsible. The mac is from 2011, but ran as good as new until about a month ago. 
    Any ideas how I can improve it's performance? Just a heads up, I have some vague technical awareness, but it's probably best to treat me like I know nothing. Thanks.

  • How can i determine what year my macbook pro is from?

    i want to see if upgrading to mountain lion for the Airplar Mirroring feature will work with my Mackbook Pro.  I believe it is a Core 2 Duo so I know it is not very new but I purchased it off ebay so i am not entirely sure the build year.

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

    I have very little space left on the hard drive on my macbook, on my storage report it says "other" is taking up more than two thirds of the space on the hardrive. How can I identify what these files are?

    Hello,
    There is free software you can download that gives you a graphical image of what files are used on your hard drive. http://www.derlien.com/
    This may help you clean down your hard drive for more space.
    Best of luck

    get the package name from here ie VA
    note the package(VA) and get back to main screen
    goto SMOD tcode  and click on find button in the package spec giv the package name ie VA and execute it
    you will find list of exits available
    check out the exit that suits ur requirement

  • How can I play music on my macbook pro (OSX Lion) through a Pioneer receiver. I've connected them with a mini display port to HDMI cable with audio support bought at the Apple Store, but there's no sound coming through. thanks

    How can I play music on my macbook pro (OSX Lion) through a Pioneer receiver? I've connected them with a mini display port to HDMI cable with audio support bought at the Apple Store, but there's no sound coming through. There are 4 HDMI-in ports on the receiver - BD, DVD, DVR/BDR and audio. In my system preferences for sound, the receiver doesn't show up as an output option. Can anyone please advise. (ps, this is my first time posting a question, so I hope I can find your answers!) thanks, JP downunder

    For sound, try the audio output port and connecting to the RCA  audio input ports on your Pioneer receiver.  Use something like this:

  • How can I transfer pictures from my MacBook Pro to my iPad mini please?

    How can I transfer pictures from my MacBook Pro to my iPad mini please?

    If you are on iTunes 11 on your Mac then you may want to re-enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar, which might make it easier to navigate and may instructions may make more sense.
    To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you've enabled the sidebar), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
    If you haven't enabled the sidebar, then from your library click 'iPad' at the top right of the screen and you should get a series of buttons along the top of the screen, including one for Photos

  • How can I get Minecraft onto my Macbook Pro?

    How can I get Minecraft onto my Macbook Pro? It is 15 inch Retina display, and it is Version 10.9.1 . I download the game, log in and press play, but as soon as it finishes loading, the blue bar goes away and nothing else happens!
    It goes from this:
    To this:
    And on the development console it says this:

    Hello EpicEmma,
    I just had this problem today!, but i have a SOLUTION ,
    right click the finder icon and click "go to folder"
    type : "~Library/ Application Support
    Find the minecraft folder, Backup your Saves, (drag the saves folder onto the desktop) *OPTIONAL*
    delete the minecraft folder, not the application.
    Open the minecraft Launcher (it will take a while to start up)
    Put in login info and when its loaded up, press "play"
    The blue bar will take a minute or two...
    And then... it should start normally
    U dont need to repeat the steps every time u open Minecraft. You can later replace the saves folder with the new one back to where it was whenever you want at the same place where it used to be before. Hope this helped!
