How do i update macbook pro 10.5.8

as above

Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
If it's a Core Duo Mac, click here, install the DVD, and run Software Update.
If it's a Core 2 Duo or better Mac, follow the Core Duo instructions, and if desired, open the Mac App Store, and try downloading 10.9. If you get told it's incompatible, go to the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC software such as Microsoft Office 2004. If you upgrade the OS, back up the computer first.

  • How do I update MacBook Pro 10.4 to latest version?

    I bought my Macbook Pro on ebay. Its 2007 running OSX 10.4.11 and want to upgrade to latest version  (at least 10.5 ) to get Itunes and sync my Iphone 3g etc

    First you need to check that your current Mac meets the System Requirements for Both Snow Leopard and Lion...
    Snow Leopard Specs:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    Lion Specs:
    http://www.apple.com/macosx/specs.html
    If it does... then you need to Purchase and Install Snow Leopard
    Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard
    And then Purchase and Install Lion...

  • How to Correctly update Macbook Pro's video chip drivers

    I am currently using Boot Camp with Windows 7 64 Bit on my MBP Early 2011. My question is how can you successfully update the video chip drivers when using windows 7? When I try to install drivers the AMD updater can not recognize my video card. But my games have made it clear that I am not running the most recent drivers

    fmurry925, unfortunately, the "normal" way of updating video drivers doesn't apply to Boot Camp installations. For some reason, Apple uses a slightly customized video chip in MBP (ie mine is an nVidia 320M, which doesn't exist in any non-Apple computer. Well, there's one.)
    This means that the standard nVidia driver set doesn't recognize this chip. And I suspect it's the same for your computer. So you're stuck with using the drivers available from Apple, which are updated much less frequently than the generic drivers.
    There are workarounds for this, consisting of "modding" your INF to allow the generic drivers to work for you. But I did some searching, and it seems that your particular chip, which is "switchable" between the Radeon and the Intel graphics, doesn't have a modded INF available. Yet. So, unless someone else knows of a solution, you might be stuck with the Apple-supplied drivers for a while.

  • How to update MacBook Pro system10.6.8 to 10.7.5

    I Need to update MacBook Pro 1.1 Intel Core Duo, Memory 2 GB, speed 2 GHZ 667  MHZ Boot Ram Version.  I would like to use Turbo Tax but it apparently does not support 10.6.8.  And the printer also supports only from10.7.5 x-10.8x,10.9. I have copied all my Microsoft doc from Version 2004.  I appreciate any help you can give me.

    Sorry, but your model cannot run Lion or later. A Mac Pro 1,1 can run Lion. Maybe that's what you have confused with your MacBook Pro. Your's is an obsolete model with a Core Duo processor. Running any version of OS X requires a Core 2 Duo processor. See these following requirements.
    Upgrading to Lion
    You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. 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 to connect my macbook pro to a computer-to-computer network?

    how to connect my macbook pro to a computer-to-computer network?  My home computer is a Window 8 OS.  Thx.

    The easiest way, and it may work from scratch, is to share the folders/drives you want access to on your pc, noticing what are the default parameters (eg "workgroup" etc.).
    Then, you can connect your mac directly by ethernet, for instance, and, in Finder, go to > Network, you should see the folders/drives. You may be asked to provide user/password.
    Don't get confused by regular/crossed ethernet cable, as mac can cross by software, so a regular cable will be ok.
    Anyway, either you isd modem has the ability to connect several devices (multiple ethernet sockets, or wifi), or you can buy a router, which isn't expansive.

  • How to know my macbook pro supports usb2 or usb3?

    How to know my macbook pro supports usb2 or usb3 ?
    And if it is USB 2, will external hardisk which support usb 2 would be compatible with & vice-versa?
    What would be the cons?

    USB 3.0 ports were only added to those MacBook Pros that were released in mid 2012 and later.
    So you would have USB 2.0 ports on your machine.
    But USB 3.0 and 2.0 are 'compaitble,' somewhat - you just won't be able to get the throughput of a USB 3.0 to USB 3.0 connection.
