You need to upgrade to Snow Leopard first. Contact Apple to buy a Snow Leopard installation DVD.
Make sure your system meets Snow Leopard's requirements:
Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard system requirements
To install Snow Leopard for the first time, you must have a Mac with:
An Intel processor
An internal or external DVD drive, or DVD or CD Sharing
At least 1 GB of RAM (additional RAM is recommended)
A built-in display or a display connected to an Apple-supplied video card supported by your computer
At least 5 GB of disk space available, or 7 GB of disk space if you install the developer tools
Once you have Snow Leopard, you can upgrade to whatever your MacBook will support.
There is no need for sequential upgrades. The reason Snow Leopard is a prerequisite for further upgrades is that it includes the App Store. All OS versions subsequent to Snow Leopard are distributed that way.

  • Is there a limit to how many ipods you can have on one computer?

    We have 5 iPods between myself, my spouse and my kids. I manage all of our music, video and games from my iMac. I am planning to purchase the new 3G iPhone on Friday. Is there a limit to the number of devices that I can have on my iTunes account? I seem to remember getting some kind of message about 5 account authorizations when I first synced my most recently purchased iTouch. Are "accounts" related to the computer or the iPod devices?

    The "five" limit is for +number of computers+ using an iTunes Store account. It has nothing to do with the number of iPods connected to a computer.
    As far as I know, you can have as many iPods as you want connected to a single computer and one iTunes installation. There may be a computer limitation in how may iPods you can connect simultaneously, but there should not be a practical limit in how may iPods can be associated with your iTunes installation.

    Highlight the item.
    Finder>Edit>Copy
    Place the item where you want to
    Finder>Edit>Paste
    There is 3rd party software that makes cut & paste easier with just 1 or 2 steps. 
    Q2 how do I correct a spelling error when it has a red line under it?
    You can find the correct spelling in the Apple dictionary.  Just add the correct spelling & delete the error.
    Care to share which OS you are using and which model iMac you have?

  • How many of you are having these reported problems with the iPhone 5?

    I'm thinking of getting an iPhone 5 after the 11th, when my current iPhone 4 contract expires.
    With my luck with Apple products I'll probably get one with all the problems you read about:
    - light leaks,
    - bubbles on the screen,
    - yellow tints,
    - reversed volume buttons,
    - scratches out-of-the-box...
    How prevelant are these? Did your iPhone 5 have any of the above? Any other common problems?
    I would wait until things "settle down" but I only have a window of one month in which I can switch providers without penalty if I decide to do that (crazy Japan system).
    Thanks,
    doug

    My two new phones will arrive tomorrow, but honestly, I don't expect any issues, like with every other iOS based device I've bought.  Just remember that coming on these forums, is kind of like visiting a hospital and thinking that everyone on the planet must be sick.  The "gruntled" of this world are usually the loudest, while the usually very happy are nowhere to be seen or heard from.
    I have at least a dozen friends who have already gotten their new iPhone 5.  Not one of them has any issues.  None.  No light bleeding.  No scuffs (oh sure, you can scratch the new phone if you try, it is afterall cased in annodized aluminum - so use a case to keep it pristine), no reverse volume buttons (I hadn't even heard that one), no bubbles, well you get the idea.
    I suspect you can buy without fear and I'm sure you'll really be pleased you did.

  • How many ipod on itunes

    Hi!
    I already have 2 ipod nano 4th generation on my itunes. Both have exactly the same music and that's fine for me. I'd like to know how many ipods can I have on itunes and with the same Apple account? I do not think there is a limit, but I'd like to be sure..
    Anyway, thanks a lot!
    Stephanie

    There is no limtiation for the device. I have used my account on more than 10 devices, include ipad, ipod and iphone.

  • How many iPods?

    I have a 20" iMac G5 (ambient light sensor), iPod 5th Gen, iPod 3rd Gen and iPod Shuffle 2nd Gen.
    My question is, how many iPods can I have plugged in AND mounted AND in their docks charging?
    I've noticed that I used to be able to have both the 3rd gen and 5th gen mounted at the same time... however, now that I have the shuffle, as soon as a 3rd iPod gets plugged in, one of the other two will unmount (randomly out of the 3).
    This is kind of annoying as I like to have all of them charging. The unmounted one seems to not charge when this happens. Is this an issue with the iMac or simply a limit in the OS or iPods or iTunes?

    It's more of a convenience factor than anything... To be able to plug into their docks and sink and not worry about if one is not synced, then that is ideal (I do a sync just before leaving my computer so that calendars et al get updated).... but if the only way to do it is one at a time, then I guess I have no other choice. A small price to pay I guess for the great devices

  • How many hours do I have to charge my iphone 5 for the first time?

    i just bought an iphone 5 and I want to know how many hours do i have to charge it in the first charge. Thanks you very much for all your answers.

    You don't need to charge it unless you want to or it needs it.  You can and should charge as often and as long as possible... deep discharges are hard on lithium batteries.  Normal mobile use will result in the one charge cycle/month that Apple recommends.

  • How many Apps can i have on my iPod Touch, is there a limit?

    Is there a limit on how many Apps i can have on my iPod Touch?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks a lot, that was very helpful.
    I am pretty sure that there's 16 Apps per page,
    so...16 X 9 = 144 - 13 pre installed Apps.
    131 total available (slots) for Apps.

  • After my warranty form has arrived in the mail how many days do I have till I have to send my ipod to UPS?

    I called the My Appleid number and registered my Ipod touch with a one time curtesy because I did not have my receipt. My sister stepped on my ipod and cracked the screen, I finally got the form in the mail with the sticker, I am supposed to put on the bow that my ipod goes into. How many days do I have till I have to send my Ipod, form, and packing sticker to the UPS center?

    I would say five days. Note however, that a cracked screen is not covered by warranty since that is accidental damage. Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for:
    - $99 for 16 GB 5G and 8, 16, and 32 GB4G,
    - $149 for 32 and 64 GB 5G
    - $199 for 64 GB 4G

    So I can sync two iPods to my iTunes account and sync the same digital copy movies that come with some o' my DVDs to both ipods? Do movies make a difference really, DRM-Wise? Thanks in advance.

  • How many iPods can sync with One iTunes account?

    How many iPods can one sync with an iTunes account ? I have searched the net and there are many different posts but none conclusive. So was wondering if anyone here had a clear idea on that.

    But how many ipod can I sync with only one iunes store account?
    None.
    iPod don't sync with an iTunes account.
    iPods sync with iTunes on a computer.
    You can have 5 computers authorized to play songs/movies from one iTunes account.
    Each computer can have 5 iTunes accounts authorized.
    An iPod can have music/movies from 5 different iTunes accounts.
    Note that this only applies to iTunes purchases with DRM, which is movies, tv shows and older iTunes music. All music now purcahsed is DRM free.

  • How many iPODS can you download your music library to?

    I've purchased 3 iPODS over time and have downloaded from my iMAC to each.
    Is there a limit to how many iPODS I can download to? On the last one I got a message saying I only had one more left. These are all legal purchases. Why is there a limit?

    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/authorization/
    "* iTunes DRM-protected music includes audio with a bit rate of 128 kbps and allows users to transfer songs and videos to up to five computers, burn seven copies of the same playlist to CD, and sync to an unlimited number of iPods.
    iTunes Plus music refers to songs and music videos available in our highest-quality 256 kbps AAC encoding (twice the current bit rate of 128 kbps), and without digital rights management (DRM). There are no burn limits and iTunes Plus music will play on all iPods, Mac or Windows computers, Apple TVs, and many other digital music players."
