Make sure your Mac is compatible. If you are on 10.3, it should be. These should get you to 10.7 iTunes.
Mac OS X v10.6.6 Update

There is no download; you need to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD.

Does it meet the 10.6 requirements?
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...

* 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. -
I have version Mac OS 10.4.11 (2007) - how do I upgrade to the current version?
Will the upgrade process affect my data?Data will not be affected but you should always make a backup just in case.
Start by upgrading to Snow Leopard: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
You might be able to upgrade to Lion if you wanted to. Doubt a Mac old enough to run 10.4 is new enough to run the latest (10.8 Mountain Lion).

I have OS X 10.4.11 and want to upgrade to the current and new OS. Except I need OS X 10.5 to upgrade. Unfortunately, 10.5 doesn't show as available. Help!
No, you don't need Leopard. You can to directly to Snow Leopard then to Mountain Lion. Or yhou can stop at Lion.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
If you need to purchase Snow Leopard contact Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service. The price is $29.00 plus tax. You will receive physical media - DVD - by mail.
Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
Snow Leopard from eBay
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.
If you need to purchase Lion contact Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download.
Be sure your computer meets the minimum requirements:
Apple - OS X Mountain Lion - Read the technical specifications.

HT1443 how to uppgrade my Mac OS 10.5.8 to better level?
I have Mac OS X version 10.5.8, how kan I upgrade the ssystem?
To upgrade from OS X 10.5.8, you must first buy Snow Leopard by calling the phone number in the Apple Online Store: 800-MY-APPLE (in the US). Snow Leopard costs $20, or $30 for a five user license. Do not obtain Snow Leopard from any source other than Apple.
Make sure your system meets Snow Leopard's requirements:
Mac OS X 10.6 "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 memory (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
After you install Snow Leopard you can decide if you want to upgrade OS X to the latest version, Mountain Lion. Mountain Lion is available in the Mac App Store, which is available to you after upgrading to Snow Leopard.
Make sure your system meets the requirements for Mountain Lion:
Mac OS X 10.8 "Mountain Lion" System Requirements
To install Mountain Lion, you need one of these Macs:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)
Your Mac needs:
OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
2 GB or more of memory (RAM)
8 GB or more of available hard disk space
a brody's Mountain Lion upgrade summary, which contains more detail than the above:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3761
If your system does not support Mountain Lion's requirements, you may be able to upgrade to Lion. To do that you must call Apple again to order a download code. Redeem the download code in the App Store to download Lion.
Make sure your system meets the requirements for Lion:
Mac OS X 10.7 "Lion" System Requirements
Mac with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon CPU
Core Duo CPUs are not sufficient for Lion
2GB of memory (RAM)
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
To determine which Mac you have, what kind of CPU it uses, and how much memory is installed: > About this Mac
The specified 2 GB minimum is barely adequate for either Lion or ML. They will run in 2 GB but you may not like its performance. 4 GB is a more realistic minimum. -
HT1443 how can we pass from os 10.5.8 to 10.6?
I need to pass from mac os 10.5.8 to at least 10.6... How could it be done?
Before buying anything you should first make sure your machine will accept the upgrade you have in mind.
Minimum specs for Snow Leopard. Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard -Read the Technical Specifications
Note. You can now buy Snow Leopard from the Apple store on line again.
In the USA. Go to Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.)
In Europe or otherwise … call your National Apple Helpline. Find it at … http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
In the UK … Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (UK) Where the last known price was £14.
Before you start upgrading, back up your files.
Once you have upgraded to Snow Leopard you will need to apply the Combo updater. Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 and follow with a software update to pick up any later improvements. -
HT1443 can os 10.4 be upgraded to 10.6
Can OS 10.4.11 be upgraded to 10.6.3?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Of course. Snow Leopard is only compatible with Intel-based Macs, so open > About this Mac, and check that your Mac has got an Intel processor. If so, buy Mac OS X Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Make a backup of your files with Carbon Copy Cloner (or manually), insert the DVD and upgrade to Mac OS X Snow Leopard. After upgrading, open > Software Update, and install the latest Mac OS X version -

HT1443 Can I install or purchase a new OS system?
I am looking to upgrade my OS is that possible? Can I purchase a newer version because it wont let me download one?
Go to the menu/About this Mac and it will show you the memory installed.
Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported.
Application Compatibility
You can also check which applications are PowerPC by going to the menu, select About this Mac, click on More info…, then click System Report and select Software/Applications.
If you have applications that you want to use that aren’t compatible, you can retain Snow Leopard and create a new partition to install Mountain Lion on or you can run Snow Leopard server in a virtual mode.
There are updates for iWork and iLife progams which are compatible.
If you can/do upgrade, I recommend you make a copy of the installer and move it out of your Applications folder. The installer self-destructs. The copy will keep you from having to download the installer again. You can make a bootable DVD/USB stick to install using this free program.
Bootable USB Flash Drive – Diskmaker X
If you need/want more RAM, the 2 places I’ve seen recommended most to buy reliable RAM are below. I have purchased RAM serveral times from Other World Computing and have always been very satisfied with the product and service.

HT1443 pay for the 10.6 or how high can i go in an upgraded version?
My MacBook is about 4 years old now- Mac OS X 10.5.8. I want to install Google Drive but it requires Mac OS X 10.6 or higher. Do i pay for a 10.6 version or do i buy a higher version and how high can i go?
You pay for Mac OS X 10.6 unless you're a paid MobileMe member, in which case Apple will ship it to you for free. A Core Solo or Core Duo Mac can go to 10.6.8, while a Core 2 Duo or better can go to Mac OS X 10.7.4.

Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
Snow Leopard General Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
2. 1GB of memory
3. 5GB of available disk space
4. DVD drive for installation
5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
fees may apply.
6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
terms apply.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
Lion System Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
or Xeon processor
2. 2GB of memory
3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
4. 7GB of available space
5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later

I am currently running OS X 10.4.11 on my MacBook Pro and would like to upgrade to the latest version of Lion. When I check for updates, I receive a message that says no updates are available. When i tried to purchase a Lion upgrade, it says I need to be running OS X10.6 or later. What do I need to do in order to upgrade to Lion? Thanks!
Buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store, install it, run Software Update, and if the computer has a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU, phone the Apple Store and order a download code for Lion.
