How can i upgrade OSX 10.5.8 to OSX 10.6.8?

Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x
It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
Do this first...
Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
Snow Leopard Tech Specs

If so Contact Apple in your Country to Purchase a Snow Leopard Disc...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
In the US...
1-800-MY-APPLE or 1-800-676-2775
After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...

HT1725 I have a song that didnt completly download, but when I check for available downloads it says all songs are downloaded but they are not. What should I do

I have a song that didnt completly download, but when I checked for available downloads it says all songs are downloaded. When I close Itunes and reopen it still dosent complete the download what should I do

Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting that track from your iTunes library (if it's still in there then iTunes won't let you re-download it) and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

Everyone seems to be talking about the Jelly Bean update, however when I check for an update, it says my phone is up to date. Why is this?

It seems like every other RAZR Maxx has an update but mine. What the heck? lol

Same with mine - got in May. Says it is Factory Certified - factory tested
but never used. Claimed not a full charge yet it was 95% charged...what can
you do - other models were lesser in quality and features..interesting
that you had option to take update - I did not. My email accounts were not
receiving. Didn't try nav doc...Hope this one will be better.

My touch shows the connect to itunes with usb on screen however when i try to do so it says it cannot connect because it is locked with a passcode. It will not let me enter the code on the ipod or computer. so i cant do anything. Any ideas?

I have tried rebooting it. nothing seems to help. it always ends up with the same screen a picture prompting me to hook up via usb to itunes.Then without fail i get an error message. itunes connpt connect to the ipod touch because it is locked with a passcode. you need to enter the passcode on the ipod touch first. unfortunately the touch will not show any other screen but the connect to itunes.

Connect the iPod touch to your iTunes library in Recovery Mode and restore it to factory setting. See this article for instructions on getting your device into Recovery Mode.

I downloaded a song yesterday and when i go to play it i only get the first four or five seconds, then it quits. When I check for available downloads, Apple says all songs have been downloaded to this computer.This last purchase didn't download.

I downloaded a song yesterday, April 6th. It didn't download successfully, but Apple or i-tunes said it has been downloadd to my computer. Well it hasn't. I only get the first 4 or 5 seconds when i try to play it. i don't want to pay for it again. What should I do?

Launch iTunes on your computer.
From the menu bar click iTunes > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
Click Reset warnings and Reset cache
Click OK.
Restart your computer, launch iTunes.
Click Store > Check for Available Downloads...

When I check for software updates only itunes and random other updates show up but not security updates or safari update. When i check installed updates I realized my last security update was 2011-004 and I still have safari 5.0.6. Can anyone help me?

Don't panic. OS X 10.5.8 is the most popular PowerPC OS out there. People run it everyday without security breaches, including myself. It isn't Windows!
If you're really that worried, I highly recommend Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition. Supports PowerPC & Intel and Mac OS X 10.4-10.7.

HT201232 My operating system is Mac OS X 10.6.8 and when I'm surfing the web, it tells me I need to update my browser however when I check for updates, nothing comes up. What do I need to do to get Mac OS X Lion v10.7?

My operating system is Mac OS X 10.6.8 and when I'm surfing the web, it tells me I need to update my browser however when I check for updates, nothing comes up. What do I need to do to get Mac OS X Lion v10.7?

Software update will only bring you up to the current level of the system you are using - you are at the maximum for Snow Leopard. To get Lion or higher you will have to go to the Mac App Store in Applications and purchase it there (Yosemite is free). You will need to check that your Mac meets the requirements and you should particularly note that PPC programs such as AppleWorks will not run in Lion or above.
The requirements for Lion are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). Mountain Lion (10.8.x) is also available there at the same price (though it's reported to have been removed from sale in some countries so may well cease to be available generally) but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Yosemite (10.10.x) - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
The requirements for Mountain Lion and Yosemite are:
OS X v10.6.8 or later
2GB of memory
8GB of available space
and the supported models are:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
Yosemite is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications). Mountain Lion can be obtained the Online Apple Store. (Mavericks is no longer available.)
If the problem is only with Safari and you are otherwise happy with Snow Leopard you could switch to FireFox (free) - the latest version of that will run in Snow Leopard.

Quit iTunes, restart your Mac and then restart the iPad and see if the iPad is recognized after that. If not, you can look through these articles.

You need to call your service provider, and ask them if your SIM card is activated.

It is, but only when installed from an iWork 09 DVD(places such as Amazon and eBay may sell these) and not from the Mac App Store.

Episodes do not auto-download even though I receive email confirmation they are ready. 'Check For Avail. Downloads' says all available are already downloaded. Signed in properly on an authorized machine.

Thank you for the reply. These are not, however, past purchases; these are fresh episodes of purchased seasons. For instance, I receive an email that a new episode of Elementary is ready for me to download. When I check for available downloads, though, I am told there are none. So these are not previous purchases that I am trying to re-view or download again. These are fresh items for which I have paid but which I appear unable to access unless, perhaps, I were to re-purchase them. Grrrrrr.

HT4623 My I pad has iOS 5.1.1 installed. When i check for an update it says that 5.1.1 is the up to date version and will not allow me to install a later version.

I am not able to update the iOS on my i pad.

Hi,
The original iPad is limited to iOS 5.1.1 - where you are right now. This means you cannot get any further version of iOS. This is due to this not having enough power or memory. All other iPads and iPad Minis can get up to the current iOS 7.0.4.
Hope this helps!

I have bought a new Iphone 4S and also own a Mac pro, also IPad. I did not install find my phone on the IPad, my IPad has either been misplaced (have tore the house up looking for it) or it has been stolen is there any way I can find where it is at

I resently purchased the New IPhone 4S, and I have a mac Pro, plus a IPad. I have misplaced my IPad or it has been stolen is there any way by using Find My phone it can be located Thanks Look for My IPad

Unless you set up MobileMe / Find My iPad on it before it was lost/stolen, then no, there isn't any way to locate it. If you did set up MobileMe on it then you could try locating it either via me.com on a computer or Find My iPhone / Find My iPad on a another device - but that will only work if it's connected to a network and the device hasn't already been wiped and/or MobileMe disabled on it.
If you think that it was stolen then you should report it to the police. As a safety precaution you should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

I have a fifth gen Ipod and have changed computers. I was not able to transfer all the music over when I created an itunes account on the new computer. How can I save all the songs on my ipod and upload new ones? It wants to sync with my new account.

I have a fifth gen ipod classic. I switched computers and was not able to transfer the songs and pictures over. When I connect my ipod to the computer it wants to sync with it which would delete all my songs and music. Is there a way around this?

See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.
