How do I upgrade my operating system on OSX 10.2.8
I'm trying to upgrade my computer so I can download and use the new itunes. I have looked in the apple menu for the command "update latest softwear" but on my version it doesn't exist and the only option is Get OS X softwear. This takes me to the Apple website and when I try and download a later version of OSX I am told that there is no "Bill of Quantities". Is this because 10.2.8 is so old that it can't be upgraded to the newer operating systems? Is there anything I can do or do I have to buy a new computer?
Thanks for your help
Muriel

I am not sure what computer you have. My guess is that it is an iMac. If the processor speed is faster than 400 MHz you should be able to run Tiger (OS X 10.4.11), which you will need to use iTunes 9. (To check you processor speed go to Apple Menu > About this Mac). You can also install Panther (Mac OS X 10.3.9) although you will need to run earlier versions of iTunes. If your processor speed is under 400 MHz Panther will be your best bet. To install Tiger your computer will need to meet the minimum system requirements for Tiger. To install Panther your computer will need to meet the minimum system requirements for Panther.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

You can't. Nothing that runs under v10.1.1 can run 10.5.8.
No MacBook Pro can run under v10.1.1.
So something in your post is wrong. -

I have a Mac OS X 10.5.8. How can I upgrade the operating system so I can get i Life 11?
You will need Snow Leopard which is available as a retail disk for $29 from the Apple store or online resellers. Make sure your Mac meets the system requirements; 1 GB RAM is the absolute minimum - 2 GB would be better.

Help - How do I upgrade the operating system
I havea pearl and never done anything with apps. One app I want says I need OS 4.5 as minimum. How can I do this? What is approx cost? If it si my company's phone and htey have it on enterprise, can it still be done?
1. No cost, it's free.
2. If you are on a corporate BES account, as your BES or IT Admin first. You will need a new activation password after the upgrade to get back on the network.
3. Do a complete backup first, of your device, using Desktop Manager > Backup, first.
4. Do you have a Pearl 8100?
Look here for the 81xx latest Operating System files, and simple instructions:

How do I upgrade the operating system from 10.3.9 to 10.5
Hi,
I have an iBook G4 which is running 10.3.9 at the moment and I would like to upgrade it to 10.5.
Where do I get the OS from and how do i install it?
Sorry I am new to MAC so have no real knowledge on how to any of this.
Thanks,
alamb200Unless you find it on eBay, it's likely to cost you more than the iBook is worth.
Apple sold it for $129, and you could try giving them a call to see if they may still have it available via phone sales. You need the full retail version.

Otherwise:

Don't buy any version that came with another Mac; it won't work, neither will an "upgrade" disc. (An upgrade disc requires that you already have Mac OS X 10.4 installed.)
Good luck.
(Unless you can find an exceptional deal on Leopard, the money would probably be better spent on upgrading to a MacBook with Leopard or Snow Leopard already on it.) -
HT1338 How do I upgrade my operating system from 10.5.8 to 10.6 or later
I need the best method to upgrade my Macbook 10.5.8 to 10.8.2 so that I can use Lion. Thanks for your help.
If you want to use Mountain Lion, then Niel's post covers that.
If you want Lion, which preceded Mountain Lion, you'll also buy that through the online Apple store, who can sell you a code to download it. You'll need to be at OS X 10.6.8 for either option.
The online Apple store's number in the US is 800-MY-APPLE. -
I have mac os x 10.6.8 and I want to upgrade my operating system
How do I upgrade my operating system.
First, which OS do you want to upgrade to?
Here are some requirements for the OS X versions after Snow Leopard. See if your MBP qualifies for any of these.
OS X Lion 10.7.5
OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.5
OS X Mavericks 10.9.1
Mavericks is free. OS X Lion and Mountain Lion would need to be purchased and you would have to call Apple Sales (800-MY-APPLE USA) to purchase a redemption code; then redeem it at the App Store. -
HI, I recently upgraded my operating system IOS 5.0.1 on an iphone 3gs. My question is, how do I get the text messaging preview to just pop up so that I can see the name only when the lock screen is on? The conventional ways of doing this, such as using turning off the SMS preview under the "passcode lock", well that option no longer exists, or if it does, I'm somehow missing it.
When I go to the "messages" setting under settings on my phone, I still don't see an option of turning it off.
If I can just get the name of the person sending the message, as I had it before, I'd be happy.
Help!That option still exists in Settings > Notifications > Messages > Show Prview (OFF) and View in Lock Screen (ON). Here's how to configure your Notifications and Notification Center for iOS 5: http://iphone-and-i.blogspot.com/2012/01/how-to-customize-notification-center-in .html

How do I reinstall my operating system (Snow Leopard) after a hard drive upgrade. I did a Time Machine backup before the new hard drive was installed. I put in the Snow Leopard install disc and don't get the icon I'm supposed to double click to install Snow Leopard and then the backup.
HELP PLEASE!!Is the new HHD in the MBP?
Is the new HDD formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)?
Where is the old HDD? In an enclosure? What is on the old HDD, your user data? Is the Snow Leopard System on it?
Do you have a separate Time Machine Disk with your user data?
Answers to these questions should give an exact status of your situation so that one can proceed in the right direction.

I recently upgraded my Mackbook Pro ma operating system from OSX lion to Maverick, but in the process I can not access my iphoto 9.1.5. How do I access it?
Download the Mavericks version from the App Store.
The iWork apps are free with a new iOS device since 1 SEP 2013. They are free with a new Mac since 1 OCT 2013. They are also free with the upgrade to OS X Mavericks 10.9 if you had the previous version installed when you upgraded.
iWork and iLife for Mac come free with every new Mac purchase. Existing users running Mavericks can update their apps for free from the Mac App Store℠. iWork and iLife for iOS are available for free from the App Store℠ for any new device running iOS 7, and are also available as free updates for existing users. GarageBand for Mac and iOS are free for all OS X Mavericks and iOS 7 users. Additional GarageBand instruments and sounds are available for a one-time in-app purchase of $4.99 for each platform. -
I have a 2006 intel imac 4.1 with 2g of ram. I am currently running 10.5.8 and wish to upgrade the operating system. How high can I go as I would like to link it up with my newer imac, iphone and ipad...please advise and 10.5.8 is not cutting it.
You can run up to 10.6.8 on that particular model. That OS version is still available:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
10.6.8 will run on 2GB RAM, the max for that model. -
Do I have to alert adobe if I'm moving my product from one computer to another? or will they recognise my intentions when my product is removed from their database?
Is there a way to export my movie timeline (as in the organisation of my
clips, not just the movie) to a external hard drive. I thought publish
would help but I'm unsure and the export button under file doesn't light
up. I'm using Elements 11 and I'm trying to save it to a hard drive so I
can unistall the program, upgrade my operating system and reinstall.
