I have a macbook and I keep pressing software update and my computer version 10.5.8 and it says there are no updates anything I can do?
10.5.8 is the last release for OS X 10.5.
If you want to upgrade your operating system, you have to buy it, and it's not available via download. The next upgrade for you would be to OS X Snow Leopard 10.6. In the US, call the Apple online store at 800-MY-APPLE and order 10.6 from the legacy products list. They will send you a DVD, which you can install, then use Software Update to get to the last release of 10.6.8.
If you want to upgrade further, and your sytsem will support it, you can call the Apple online store again to buy Lion or you can connect to the App Store to buy and download Mountain Lion. If your system will support Lion or ML, you probably should have 4GB of memory for reasonable performance.

I have os x 10.6.8. When I try to update it says there are no updates for my system. I want to get iCloud on my Mac Book Pro and one of the requirements is 10.7.2 how can I get this done?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can purchase Lion from the Mac App Store. You will need to meet the requirements for Lion, but the Mac App Store will tell you whether your Mac is capable of running Lion or not. -
I have iWork 09 and OS 10.7.5 but Software Update says there are no updates. Anyone know why?
Because you need to get Mavericks and then the current iWork applications from the Mac App Store and not Software Update.

When I try opening iPhoto on my iMac (OSX 10.9.2) it says I must first download the update; when I try doing so from the App store, it says there are no updates available. Stuck in a classis Catch-22 - any ideas how I might solve the problem?
Thanks a lot for your swift response. And sorry if it was a bit too hectic to go through my detailed query (which I did because it was misunderstood when I asked previously). As I've mentioned above, I was informed that updating to 5.0.1 would '''require''' me to '''delete''' the current version and then install the new one. And doing so will involve losing all my bookmarks. I guess I should have been more specific and detailed there. By losing, I didn't mean losing them forever. I'm aware that they're secured in some place and deleting and installing the software doesn't harm its existence. What I meant that if I install the new version, I'd have to delete the old one. And after installing the new version, I'd have to transfer them (bookmarks) back from wherever they are. Get it? When it updated from 3.6.9 to 3.6.13, and from 3.6.13 to 3.6.18, I didn't need to follow that process. They were already present on their own.
BTW, I'm having no problems with 3.6.18 but after learning about the existence of version 5.0.1, I'm a bit too eager to lay my hands over it.
Thanks for your help; hope this wasn't extremely long. -
HT4589 After Yosemite Final cut pro will not run and says there are no updates available.

my macknook pro is incredibly behind in updates. however when selecting software update it says there are no updates. i can't do much with it due to nothing running on the software i have currently.
To get to the next release of OS X, which is Snow Leopard 10.6, you must purchase the install DVD for it from Apple.
This is the next required upgrade from 10.5. Once you get there then you can consider upgrading to newer version if your MBP will support them. -
IPhone has 7.0 os and says there are no updates
My iPhone 4S IOS is 7.0. I am told by others that there is a 7.02 yet my phone says there are no updates. What's my problem?
There is indeed an update to iOS 7.0.2
On your iPhone se the Settings app
Settings > General > Software Update
Do you get a notice about an update there? If not the first thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. Then go back to Settings and check for an update again. If you still don't see one and you are sure that your phone is not already updated to 7.0.2 try connecting your phone to the computer you normally sync with. Make sure the computer is running tunes 11.1.1. Use the Check for update feature in iTunes on your computer. -

have iphone 5 - computer says need to update to 10.7 but computer on 10.5 os x & says no updates available
Ah yes, no updates are available for 10.5.8, & 10.5.8 won't handle all the new stuff for iPhone 5s.
You need a Paid Upgrade if your Mac can handle it, though it's cheap... $20.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
* Mac computer with an Intel processor
* 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
* 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
* DVD drive for installation
* Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
* Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
It's been pulled from the online store & Apple Stores, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.
Buy Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Call Apple Sales...in the US: 1-800-MY-APPLE. Or Support... 1-800-275-2273

Hi ,
I am using iphone 3gs and have unlocked it officially from apple. Now when I tried to upgarde to ios6.1 I was able to download the ios software on my iphone successfully, but when it started installing the ios on my iphone it restarted my iphone and now it says " We are unable to countinue, we cannot activate the iphone at this time. The activtation server is currently down please try after sometime or you can also activate it by connecting to iTunes." .
Please anyone can help in either resolving this issue or restoring it back to my original ios5.1.This generally is a sign that the iPhone had previously been jailbroken
or hacked to unlock it from the original wireless provider and the update
has relocked it to that carrier. You must contact the wireless provider it
is locked to and ask if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
Exactly how did you get Apple to unlock your 3gs? Only wireless carriers
unlock iPhones; Apple does not do so. -
In the Mac, the updater icon told me there were many updates. I had them all install and they did, supposedly successfully. However, after I opened PS, it's still the old version and if I go to Help and click updates, it says I have the lastest version, yet it's still 14.2 What's going on? Thanks.

I had the CC Desktop App tell me there were new versions available and got both Indesign (CC 2014) and Photoshop (CC 2014). Went to start Indesign and got an error: 1. Suggesting I uninstall and then reinstall. The uninstaller in the app folder had lost its alias link to the original uninstall file so I had to manually find it and un-install. Then re-did installation using the CC Desktop app, and now its starting. So I am doing the same with Photoshop now and have tried starting Indesign and it is now working ... So Id suggest check your application folder and look for a folder "Adobe Photoshop CC 2014" and if its not there then you may well have just updated the existing CC application. The 2014 is a totally new install ...
