How do I upgrade OS 10.4 to a later system

How do I upgrade OS10.4 to a later system

Does this give you enough gen?
Absolutely! So you can get to 10.5 Leopard but no higher. If in N. America, you can phone Applle sales at 1-800-MY-APPLE and ask for an operating system specialist. Tell them you have a new iDevices and need to upgrade to 10.5. If they still have disks, they will sell you a set but at the old retail proce--US$129.
If that fails, you are on your own to search the resellers and auction sites. Be very careful: 10.5 is in high demand and some people take advantage of that fact, selling software that is not really "full retail install." Anyone offering a download of any Mac OS other than Apple is a crook. Run away!
A proper 10.5 retail install DVD looks like this:
You can't use a gray system disk that shipped with another Mac model.
Not sure about iWork. I know the current version on the App store requires 10.7.4. I'd ask in the iWork forum ( iWork ) what version of iWork will run under 10.5. I suspect older versions of that package are easier to find and cheaper than an in-demand OS.
EDIT: this archived Apple article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP516
says iWork 'O9 will run under 10.4.11 and higher.

  • I am running on 10.6.8 how do I upgrade to 10.7.8 or later

    I am running on 10.6.8 how do I upgrade to 10.7.8 or later

    If your system meets the requirements listed here, you can upgrade to OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion through the App Store, which you have access to in OS X 10.6.8.  Note while 2GB  memory is the minimum required, 4GB is recommended.
    If you don't want to upgrade to OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, call the online Apple store, which in the US is at 800-MY-APPLE, and buy the upgrade code for OS X 10.7 Lion. They will email you a code you can use at the App store. Note, you do not need to install OS X 10.7 to upgrade to OS X 10.8. You can go directly from OS X 10.6.8 to OS X 10.8.

  • TA23843 How much memory upgrade can I get on a late 2006 imac

    Looking to purchase GB memory for late 2006 iMac. What do I get and how much will it support? I want to install OS Lion but need 2GB to do that apparently.

    Here are the specs and maximum capacity for your Late 2006 iMac:
        667MHz DDR2 SDRAM (PC2-5300), supports up to 3GB
    I would recommend OWC or Crucial as excellent online vendors in the US.

  • How do I upgrade my MacBook Air with the same IOS as my iMac without paying twice for it?

    Hello! I have a question concerning IOS 7 upgrade for my MacBook Air which I have already on my iMac. Know it must be possible  without paying twice for it, but I have forgotten how? Can anyone help?

    iOS is the operating system for iPhones, iPads, etc.
    Mac OS is the operating system for Mac computers.
    Which version of Mac OS are you running on your iMac? (You're not running iOS6 on it.)
    If you purchased that OS from the app store, then you can download it to as many computers as you own or control (including your Macbook Air). However, if your iMac came preinstalled with the current OS, then the license is only good for that computer and you must buy it for any other computer.

  • How do u upgrade my ipod 2nd generation?

    How do i upgrade my ipod touch 2nd generation as it wont let me download apps ?

    The 2G can only go as high as 4.2.1
    To more easily find compatible apps:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

  • I have 2 iphones using the same apple ID, how do I upgrade without both phones syncing the same data?

    Hi, as it says above, my wife and I have an iphone each with different content on each. How do I upgrade the IOS on my wife's phone without syncing all the content on my phone?
    Do I need a separate apple ID for my phone? If so, how do I set this up without losing all the data and content?

    I am having the same issue.
    There is no possible way Apple didn't think this the whole way thru!
    Why in the world would I want to create an new Apple ID for everyone in my family & over complicate things?!?  "Face Time" and "Messages" can tie several devices to on Apple ID driven by contact email or phone number.  I am hard pressed to believe that Find my Friends can't be set up in a similar format.
    Please help because this is frustrating me to the point of smashing an iPhone or 2!!

  • How do I upgrade my Macbook pro to OS 10.7

    how do I upgrade my Macbook pro to OS 10.7

    You need to buy 10.7 Lion.. it costs you 29.99 . But, 10.8 Mountain Lion is releasing in this month. It costs you 19.99.
    Apple has noted that users can upgrade to 10.8 directly from 10.6.x. So, I would suggest you to wait till 10.8 is released and buy it for 19.99 and do and upgrade
