Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You must 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 MobileMe service; fees and
           terms apply.

    Unfortunately there is little you can do, Lion will not run on your machine.
    However it is possible to access some features of iClould while staying with SL. If you go to iCloud you will see the web interface for the cloud.
    Some but not all functionality is here. Check it out and see if it meets your needs.

    I am running MS Office for Mac 2008 on my MacBook Pro.  I do not have the Standard and Formatting toolbar fixed into position, as I would expect and would like.  I can access them via the View menu, where I have to select and de-select them before I can get them to display, but lose them when I log off.

  • Hi, I'm a new Mac user and I want 10.8.2 but i can't get that unless I have i have 10.8.1 and I cant get that unless I have 10.8. Now I was wondering if anyone could provide me with a link that would allow me to download this version?

    Hi, I'm a new Mac user and I want 10.8.2 but i can't get that unless I have i have 10.8.1 and I cant get that unless I have 10.8. Now I was wondering if anyone could provide me with a link that would allow me to download this version?

    Again, that's not a problem - if you purchase Mountain Lion through the App Store, it's been updated to 10.8.2 - and when there are other updates available, you can just download and install them as well.
    Just go to the App Store and purchase and install ML. Then run Software Update (Apple menu) to see if there are any updates available for your machine. I keep my System Preferences>Software Update prefs set to check automatically -
    Some people would rather check manually. No big deal, just buy it and install it.

  • Hi, I am having trouble MacBook Air crashing since Yosemite upgrade. I ran an Etresoft check but I don't know what it means... my system runs slowly and crashes. I have to force shutdown. Sometimes screen is black for a split second b/w webmail pages

    Hello,
    I am having trouble with my MacBook Air 13 inch June 2012 MacBook Air5, 2 4GB RAM  details below in Etresoft report. I recently upgraded to Yosemite and am having system trouble. My computer crashes and I have to force quit to restart. When using webmail there is a black screen for a split second between pages. This did not happen before. I am worried that it is not running properly and perhaps I need to revert to the previous operating system. I only have a MacBook Air and no need to share images between a tablet or phone so I did not need the new photo sharing software of Yosemite. I wonder if I don't have enough RAM to run it? I did not run time machine before I made the upgrade as I did not realise the significance of an upgrade as not very Mac literate. Any advice on whether my system is in danger... most appreciated! I am writing a book and making a back up but this machine is my lifeline and my work is conducted through it. It ran perfectly before... the Yosemite upgrade has perhaps highlighted some problems and it has unnerved me!
    Thanks ever so much for your advice!

    When you have kernel panics, the pertinent information is in the panic report.
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent one. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.

  • When i try to download itunes and other things it says my ios is out of date how do i update i have updated all updates but still will not let me dowload some application this is an old  mac book and firt time i have used it please help

    i have got an old mac book from a relative but i dont know how to upgrade to a later operating system.
    i have installed the updates but it keeps coming up i need a more up to date operating sytem ios6??
    pleasehelp

    Your old MacBook series, built between 2006 and 2010, had several
    different verions within those years and they do not all accept a later
    upgrade to the most newest OS X versions...
    These shipped with (early) intel-version Tiger OS X 10.4.x through
    Leopard 10.5.x, and early models can use Snow Leopard 10.6.8,
    & some can run as late as Lion 10.7.5; or maybe Mavericks 10.9.2.
    Hardware limits and system configuration specs determine this.
    A supported computer may also need hardware upgrade (RAM)
    to run a later OS X system version along with newer software.
    •How to identify MacBook models:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1635
    •Apple MacBook Specs (ALL MacBook Technical Specs) - everymac.com:
    http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook/index-macbook.html
    The base system upgrade for earliest MacBook 1.1 & MB2.1 past
    the original as-shipped Leopard 10.5.x, would be Snow Leopard
    10.6 (w/ Combo update to 10.6.8 v.1.1) for Snow Leopard download.
    So your MacBook likely has either Leopard or Snow Leopard. If it has
    Snow Leopard 10.6.8 installed/updated to last step, then it may be
    able to go to the online Mac App Store, App Store, iTunes Store, etc.
    You can see if an applicable upgrade past the current OS X system
    is available from the Mac App Store. If yours is MacBook1.1 (early)
    then highest it may go is Snow Leopard 10.6.8. The later MB2.1
    has limited upgrade, and could use Lion OS X 10.7.5 at most.
    More recent builds of MacBook, toward the last model year 2010,
    can take as new an upgrade as Mavericks OS X 10.9.2. This is
    based on build version specs, hardware limitation, and so on.
    •Mac OS X - Upgrade - Apple Support:
    http://www.apple.com/support/osx/upgrade/
    In order to know more about the possibilities, you'd have to supply
    more information on your exact MacBook model build year etc.
    The "About this Mac" as found under the Apple menu icon  is of
    some help. Additional info from "More Info" in the next window can
    help when System Profiler appears. The hardware specs are there.

  • I have a MBPro mid 2013 with 1 Thunderbolt port. Just bought a Mac monitor and want to daisy chain a PC monitor to it. Use a Mini DVI to VGA adapter from MBP to PC monitor. How do I daisy chain the 2 monitors?

    Hall Palm Desert,
    if your Mac monitor has Thunderbolt ports, and the PC monitor is on the end of the daisy chain, then you might be able to do it by connecting your PC monitor’s VGA cable to a Mini DisplayPort-to-VGA adapter (e.g. Apple, NewerTech), connecting that cable’s Mini DisplayPort end to one of the Mac monitor’s Thunderbolt ports, and then connecting a Thunderbolt cable between the other port on the Mac monitor and your MacBook Pro.

    You need to transfer your domain.sites file from your MacBook to your iMac.  This is the file where iWeb stores all info and can be found under User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites.
    Transfer this file from your MacBook to the same place on your iMac and double click the domain.sites file and iWeb will open it on your iMac and you can update your site from there too.

  • Hello, I have a macbook pro late 2011 15 inch with 4 gb ram. My macbook runs extremely slow when logging in after waking up from sleep, locking up and I am unable to use the keyboard. Is there a fix?

    My macbook runs extremely slow when logging in after waking up from sleep, locking up and I am unable to use the keyboard. Furthermore, when just using safari to watch streaming television, my computer gets really slow, and locks up, and the dock appears blank and I sit here frustrated. Anytime i wake up my computer, my keys don't respond and I've waited at most 3 minutes untill i can type in my password. Even sometimes when i type in my password and hit enter, it takes forever to open up my mac. I have barely used any storage in my macbook, since i only use it for college, and I have run clamscan wiht no viruses showing... Any ideas?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output andWi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt or damaged. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    Perhaps the PDF files are corrupted.
    Hit the command key and spacebar, a blue Spotlight in the upper right hand corner appears, now type Preview and press return on the Preview program.
    Now you can try opening the PDF's from the file menu and see what's going on.
    If they are corrupted, perhaps they are trojans from your Windows PC or gotten from a bad location online.
    Download the free ClamXav and run a scan on the possibly infected folder.

  • I cannot get Mavericks to download, even when connected directly through ethernet.  Anybody know why? I am running OS Lion, the most recent version and my Mac ws from late 2011

    I asked this question before, and was told to connect directly to the internet via ethernet, rather than attempting to download wirelessly.  Three times I have attempted the download, and the most I get is a small blue dot on the launchpad icon. I click on the Mac store and while it says "Downloading" nothing seems to be happening.  All apps are updated and closed and yet...nothing. 
    I am really frustrated with this whole thing!  I am wondering, is Mavericks really worth all this hassle as an upgrade from Lion?  And of course, you cannot get help from Apple without paying $20 unless Mavericks downloaded successfully and you are just having trouble.
    If anyone out there can help me with potential problems I can remedy myself, I would greatly appreciate it.  Thank you in advance!

    The download speed all depends on the speed of your internet connection. Mavericks is a 5+ GB download and it will take a while even with a fairly fast internet connection.
    The progress bar will barely move in the first few minute and it may take several hours to complete. If the App store is saying it is downloading then I would think it is downloading. Just let it run and set you mac not to go to sleep.

  • I transferred data from my Macbook Pro to my Mac mini but it forced me to make a new user for my old data.  How do I transfer my music, pics, and docs from the "old" user to the new user (so that I only have one user instead of 2?)

    I transferred data from my Macbook Pro to my Mac mini but it forced me to make a new user for my old data.  How do I transfer my music, pics, and docs from the "old" user to the new user (so that I only have one user instead of 2?)

    Unless you transfer the files from Setup Assistant, Migration Assistant creates a new user with the data.
    To transfer the files to your first user, you have to log on this new user, and copy all your files to /Users/Shard folder. This is a folder where you can put the files you want to share between two or more users, and all users can read and write in it.
    After copying the files, go to your first user, open /Users/Shared folder, and copy the files to your user folders. If you migrated applications, you must know that they are stored in a common folder (/Applications), so you don't have to transfer them. To open /Users/Shared folder, open Go menu (in the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type the folder

    I have Adobe Photoshop CS4 and have just upgraded my Mac operating system to Yosemite with the newest version of Java 2014 running. When I try to access Photoshop from Bridge or directly open it asks for a Legacy Version of Java 6. As I am a pensioner I cannot afford an upgrade does anyone know of a work-around for this problem?

    Hi Daddyfred,
    CS4 Photoshop has not been tested on Yosemite. But still you can try the Java 6 update using the below link.

  • Is there a free version of an Mac Word that I can download. My previous computer was an HP and it was installed for free. I tried downloading it but halfway through the process, a message popped saying it is currently running in one of my programs.

    I googled and downloaded a free version in my mac but halfway of it being downloaded, I was informed it cannot be properly installed as it is running in my program? Is there a built in Word for Mac. I have never been a Mac user so everything is new to me.

    NeoOffice is not totally free. You can download it for free, but I had to switch my mom away from NeoOffice to LibreOffice because NeoOffice started nagging for payments to be able to download updates.
    In fact NeoOffice is now in the Mac App Store for $9.99.
