Trying to install turbo tax. It says I need os x 10.6 or newer. I have 10.4

I need some assistance. I am trying to install turbo tax 2012. I have been using it for years. It says I need OS X 10.6 or newer. I currently have 10.4.11. There are not updates available. do I have to upgrade? or what other suggestions do you have?

What year, screen size, CPU speed is your iMac?
To run the H & R Block software, you need to upgrade your OS X to 10.5 Leopard.
Unfortunately, this is a pay upgrade.
We need your iMac specs to determine whether or not you can install OS X 10.5.
You need to find a source for the original black retail install DVD disc.
Unfortunately, these are hard to come by and will be more expensive than Apple's original $129 U.S.D. price.
Try Amazon.com
Here's another site I am familiar with.
Fastmac
This may be your only option if this version of OS X can run on your iMac.
If not, then you'll have to consider the option of a new or "newer" Intel iMac for the future.

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?
         See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
     For a complete How-To introduction from Apple see Upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion.

I'm not familiar with MAC's. Trying to insert turbo tax cd into my Dad's Mac OS X version 10.5.8 but it won't go in/stay. Help please!

I am not familiar with MAC's. I am trying to insert Turbo Tax CD into my Dad's Mac. But, the CD will not go in/stay in. Need some help with this, anyone have an answer? I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!

Confused: You say nothing will "catch" in the slot, which I take to mean the optical drive won't accept anything. Just spits it out. Then you say you thought there was an eject button to push, which would imply there's a stuck disc inside.
If it's the latter, try holding down the mouse while booting.

I am trying to run a CDrom on my Mac, and I get the following message: bdf.classic or bdf.osx not supportebdf.classic or bdf.osx not supported d anymore. How can I fix this.

i am trying to run a CDrom on my MAC and I get the following message: bdf.classic or bdf.osx not supported anymore. How can I fix this and run my CDrom?

I don't think you can fix it. Those messages imply the programs on the CD are older ones for PowerPC Mac (discontinued in early 2006) and does not have the code a current Intel-based Mac requires.

Chain saw type noise while trying to load Turbo Tax.

I was preparing to do my taxes and when the Turbo Tax disc was being installed some strange noises I liken to a chain saw was going on. After the installation was done done the noise stopped but the application could not be opened. I used this same program last year and had no problem. It sounds like some hardware problem has developed. Everything else works O.K., except for the computer running on the slow side. Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks

Well, first run [Whatsize|http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/13006] to see how big your individual files are, then look at what you have used i the last couple of months, and move what you don't use to en external drive, so it will be available in case you have made a mistake and moved something you don't need.
You can also speed up your computer by emptying the caches (particularly your browser cache) using OnyX and remember to empty your trash in all your identities. Doing all this should speed up your machine.
Remember, before you install Leopard, remove all peripherals (other than keyboard and mouse) and repair permissions before and after installing.
Hope this helps, and please post back with results,

Trying to run a windows program on mac. Any ideas?

Hey guys-
Thanks for all your help and all that stuff. What I've been trying to do is run a couple .exe files that are (obviously) designed to work on windows. I have tried wine and playonmac with no success- do you guys have any free ideas? Also, winebottler does not support running a single exe file. Plz help me out here, because i really could use this for work purposes! Also, here are my computer specs: Mac air 13in 128gb hdd 8gb ram i7 proccessor.

What software are you trying to run? That's the key question. "Free" Windows emulators like WINE and all the programs built on top of them (including proprietary ones like Crossover) usually provide an emulated WinXP environment as the most up to date environment they support. And usually Windows95 as the oldest one they support, if I remember correctly. Anything outside of those limits, or requiring specialty drivers not available in the OS installation, often cannot be made to work (or at least made to work properly).
Therefore, if the program you want to run requires an environment any newer than WinXP, you are going to be SOL for a free solution. You can still get a free virtual machine program (a la VirtualBox) but you will need to pay for a Windows license.

Will the new Lion software run turbo tax?

With Lion not supportng things like Quicken 2007 or Word, will it support Turbo Tax?

Yes, TT is Universal, not PowerPC:
Also, Lion supports Word 2008 and 2011, it's Microsoft that does not Support it's 7 year-old product, Word 2004, on Lion

Trying to install Turbo Tax (not the first year) and it says I have zero KB available. I have 8GB of memory installed.

How can I be out of application memory? What can I do to fix this? TIA

Ok, I think we have been talking past each other or not really understanding what each other is talking about.
When you say you have 8 GB installed and 5.93 GB free, you must be referring to the memory, and I was interpreting this as hard drive storage space.
My copy of TT (Premier) says it needs 1 GB memory and 360 MB storage space...so yours should be similar depending the edition you are using.
The hard drive storage space should not be an issue unless you have your hard drive completely full so we will ignore that.
Now TT wants to see 1 GB of memory available, but for some reason is not recognizing the 5.93 GB you report as available. So, go to Finder > Applications > Utilities (may be Other on some systems) > Activity Monitor and double click to open. Click the button top center of the window for memory and see what the numbers are in the lower portion of the window. The Wired, Active and Inactive should add up to the Used amount. Which then leaves the Free number (mine says 5.85 GB at the moment) using only Safari and Activity Monitor and the Mac OS X stuff.
Keep Activity Monitor open and reinsert the TT DVD and try to install, since that is what you said was not working. As a sanity check: do you have Mac OS X 10.6.8 as your equipment says you have? TT has to see at least that Mac OS X version.

I am trying to open Turbo tax from my bank site (I already have it done, just need to submit) says it isn't compatible with this version of FF and I need latest - already have.

Hi,
I just tried to open TT from my bank site - had to do an extension - just need to file. It gives me the error -
The browser you are using is incompatible with TurboTax. TurboTax supports the latest versions of Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari, which can be downloaded from each company's respective website. Please access TurboTax from one of these supported browsers.
I have FF version 4. Windows 7 - 32 bit.
