Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether further updates are required.
You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:

To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:

You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

    You mean for an iPhone 4S?  You can't.  Yo can only update an iPhone 4S to iOS 8.1.3.
    The only iPhone that can currently download iOS 6 is an iPhone 3GS.

    how to deactivate my iphone if it was stolen ? and i dont have the serial number.

    If you have an iCloud account the you can go to www.iCloud.com and sign in with your Appleid.  Click on Find my iPhone and Find it's location, deactivate or Wipe it.
    I would also call your Mobile service provider and have them cancel the service for that unit.

    Well when you download the update with iTunes it will always download the whole new version (in your case 7.0.2) even if its just an bug fix. If you already have 7.0 download the update over-the-air.
    You already wrote that the update is only 21 MB, so its not the whole firmware package of 7.0.2 you get with iTunes.

  • How to update software of nokia 6680??please help ...

    software

    Hi ZaffarKhan,
    Welcome to Nokia discussions board!
    Thank you for your post. To update your Nokia 6680, you need to download Nokia PC Suite on your PC and install it. After the installation, open it and plug in your device to your PC with the USB cable, once it recognises your device it should search automatically for the latest update.

  • How can i get an ex boyfriends icloud of my phone i dont have the password

    Remove an ex's icloud off my iphone6 with no passwordl

    It depends on what he setup…
    If he added Find my iPhone you need him to enter the password to remove it from the account, he can track & erase the device via that. It will remain on that account after a factory reset too (it's an anti theft tool).
    If he simply used iCloud for the app store or iTunes the account should not be 'locked' to the device, you can perform a factory reset to delete all data & remove the account. You lose the everything & need to reinstall & setup all the apps you use.
    Settings > iCloud should show which features are active.

    The article below will assist with finding things and help increase the hard drive space for your computer. The best way is to have an external hard drive to copy things to if you do not want to delete and loose things.

  • HT1338 Need help locating where and how to update Mac OS-X 10.6.5 to the latest Mountain Lion Software...thanx John

    I need help locating where and how to update Mac OS-X to Mountain Lion.....Thanx....Jay

    First update your 10.6 version to 10.6.8 from the software update under the Apple Menu.
    This will add direct access to the Mac App store via a new application.
    Now launch the App Store from your Applications folder - Its the new icon a letter A formed from a ruler pencil and pen on a blue circle !
    Once launched you need to add your iTunes account details or create an account add payment details etc...
    Sign in purchase download and follow install processes to upgrade to 10.8 Mountain Lion.
    OH and to be safe BEFORE you install backup your current system to an external drive !

    Nope.
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2455 explains how to get 10.6.6 to get the App Store.
    Only upgrade to 10.7 or later if you are prepared:
