Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

If you're using a PowerPC Mac, you can't.
If you're using an Intel Mac, phone the Apple Store and order Mac OS X 10.6.

If your Mac meets these requirements:
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
then you can order a Snow Leopard disk and install it.

I have Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 ,I want to buy the updated operating system that puts iMessage and Facetime on my Macbook Pro. What should I search for, and then purchase, in the App Store?

FaceTime can run in the version of OS X that you currently have. To get Messageyou need Mountain Lion. The protocol used by Messages is iMeassage.
The question is does your MBP meet the specs for Mountain Lion.
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
8 GB or more of available space

If you call Apple at 1 800 MY APPLE, you can get a set of retail replacement discs of OS X 10.5 Leopard.
Apple is supplying these on white DVDs for less than $20.
You'll need to give them your Mac's serial number.
See this link here.

These were reported to work on any PowerMac G4 or G5.

Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
If it's a G3, no further upgrades are available.
If it's a G4 or G5, buy a retail Mac OS X 10.5 DVD from a source such as Amazon or eBay; Apple still might have copies in stock if you phone them.
If it's an Intel Mac, buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store.

I have Adobe Premier Pro version 1.5.1 and want to upgrade to the latest version.

I have A dobe Premier Pro version 1.5.1 and want to upgrade to the latest version. Can you please tell me how I can do this without paying for a whole new version as i have already payed once for the version I have?

Premiere Pro 1.5.1 was released in March 2005. It's far too old to qualify for an upgrade.
There have been 5 major upgrades and 8 years of development since then.
The current version is CS6 and only those who own CS5 or CS5.5 are eligible to upgrade.

Everyone else must pay full price or join the Creative Cloud and pay a monthly fee.

I have version 3.5.11 and want to update to the most current firefox. I download but when I try to put it in my Mac applications, it says I dont have permission to access some of the items.

I have a Mac with snow leopard. I am using firefox 3.5.11 and want to install the most current version. I downloaded it and when I try to drop it on my applications it says I don't have permission to access some of the items.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I treid to update

Hello Curly59,
''"do you want to replace the newer version that is already installed with this older one?" ''
it is correct
1. Download a copy of the latest firefox from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
2. '''Trash''' the current Firefox application to do a clean install.
3. Install the version that you have downloaded.
Do not select to remove your personal data, your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks or other personal data.

I have mac OS X version 10.4.11 and just downloaded Firefox 4 and when I open it I get and error window stating that I cant use this application with this version of Firefox.

i used the old one fine for years. How do i make the new one open or how do I get the old one back

Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5. You can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

I have Mac OS X version 10.7.5 and I need to open a secure website to look at DA forms and army regulations but every time I try and open the page it says safari cannot open the page. What do I need to do to open the page?

Cannot open some sites. Need help!!!

Have you tried Firefox? That usually is an alternative to Internet Explorer (some web sites are still Windows-centric).
I've also had success with Opera to access some sites where other browsers have had issues.
