  • How can I find out if my mac mini running snow leopard can be upgraded to mountain lion?

    I have a mac mini with sufficient ram for the mountain lion OS however, I am unable to determine if the machine was created in early 2009.  Is there a way to make sure my machine will take the upgrade without purchasing the operating system first?

    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
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?

    What version of iLife works with Snow Leopard 10.6.8, and where can I buy it?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You can install the latest version, iLife '11. It's available at the Mac App Store, but the versions available there aren't compatible with Mac OS X Snow Leopard, so you have to get iLife '11 on a DVD at eBay or Amazon > http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MC623Z-A-iLife-VERSION/dp/B003XKRZES
    After installing it, open  > Software Update, and install the most recent version for Snow Leopard

  • Opengl error...how do I find what version I'm running?

    Hi all.  I play games and downloaded a new one today.  It crashed immediately saying that my version of OpenGL was not 2.1.  I saw somewhere that OpenGL is included in the Xcode files.  Where can I find them to see what I'm actually running?  I'm at a loss here.  I want to upgrade to OSX Maverick but I don't have enough memory...my current specs are:
    OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard
    2.0 GHz
    2.0 GB hard disk space
    I can't find a code in Terminal to identify Xcode at all.  Forum messages say it's on my installation disk and I'm pretty sure I downloaded it, but how can I find it??  Thanks!

  • How can I tell what version of mac pro I'm buying?

    So I want to buy a quad core Mac Pro used, But the benchmark is hard for me to understand.
    It says that mac pro quad 4x 2.66 first gen got about 25 tracks
    and the quad 2.66 2009 got almost 60!
    How do I tell the difference between the two when buying used?
    I want a 2009
    Thank You!

    Yes, it sounds like 1st gen 2006. MacPro 1,1.
    Check Apple support Mac Pro specs.
    You'll have 1333MHz fsb / 667MHz FBDIMM

  • How do I find what version of Firefox beta 5 I'm running on Mac OS X?

    Firefox Beta 5 on Mac OS X offers to update itself from time-to-time. The auto-update message does not indicate either the current or new version (e.g., 5.0b3). And "About Firefox" simply says "5.0".
    How can I tell precisely which release of Firefox Beta 5 is running?
    -- Ward

    The developers have made that very hard to find. I hope that they go back to showing in Help > About Firefox so that users can more easily find that information.
    Courtesy of '''''the-edmeister''''', here is what you need to do:
    #Help > Troubleshooting Information
    #under Application Basics, on the line Build configuration, click the link shown
    #on the "about:buildconfig" page, click the link next to "built from"
    #near the top of the next display you will see something similar to: FIREFOX_5_0b'''#'''_RELEASE FIREFOX_5_0b'''#'''_BUILD1

  • HT4061 How do i find What version iPad i have

    Received iPad as Christmas gift. Was told it has 3G but I don't see anything in setup that would indicate that, I.e., just setup for wireless.
    Is there somewhere that shows if this is iPad, ipad2, ipad3 ... Whatever?

    Start by creating yourself a Profile with Apple.  You can add all your devices serial numbers, and it will give you more info on they device when you do this.

    To find out the software version of your iPad, start at the home screen, then tap "settings / general / about", and you will see the serial number, and the version of your iPad software. 

  • How do I find what version of Firefox I am running

    No details should be necessary

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

  • Will an original iSight camera (peripheral) work with newer versions of Mac OS X (Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion)?

    Hi there,
    I'm thinking about purchasin a used iSight camera so I can skype using my TV (which I now use as a monitor). Will this older legacy product work with my MacBook Pro (2011)?
    Thanks,
    Alex

    It can work, but I'd recommend a new compatible USB cam instead.

  • How cane i find a stolling apple mac book pro

    how cane i find a stolling apple mac book pro 15"
    i just have the serial nubber

    Report your stolen computer to local law enforcement. You will need the serial number to make a complete report. Contact your insurance to see if they will pay a claim based on the theft. Also if it was purchased with a credit card, contact them and see if they will cover replacement - some cards do within a certain period.
    Best of luck.
