I have Mac OSX 10.5.5 what upgrade should I have/need

I am currently using Mac 10.5.5, what upgrade should I have/need?

Hi Wade,
First there's a 10.5.9 update...
Repair Permissions twice in a row afterwords, reboot.
1058 Combo Update, 10.5.8...
http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_8_Combo_Update
Then to go any higher you need 10.6 DVD.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
   * Mac computer with an Intel processor
    * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * 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.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...

Call Apple Sales...in the US: 1-800-MY-APPLE. Or Support... 1-800-275-2273
Other countries...

    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.

  • I have Mac OSX, version 10.4.11; I loaded Firefox 4, lost 3.6.16, and now I found out I can't run Firefox 4. Can I get 3.6.16 back?

    I have Mac OSX, version 10.4.11; I loaded Firefox 4, lost 3.6.16, and now I found out I can't run Firefox 4. Can I get 3.6.16 back? I am not sure what to do. I dragged my old firefox icon to the desktop and it disappeared. The new icon has a white circle with a slash, and won't open because I have an older version Mac

    You can get Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox

  • What software can I update with on my powerpc g5.  Running Mac osx 10.4.11, What software can I update with on my powerpc g5?  Running Mac osx 10.4.11

    What software can I update with on my powerpc g5.  Running Mac osx 10.4.11, What software can I update with on my powerpc g5.  Running Mac osx 10.4.11.  Since it doesn't have Intel dual core processor, can't do Snow Leopard right?  Is there anyway to upgrade the software?

    Snow is Intel only.  You could get Leopard 10.5 by purchasing a Retail (black) Disk off eBay or calling Apple Service and ordering one from them.  That would allow you to run Safai 5 and iTunes 10, I believe, but would lose Classic support in the process.

  • I have Mac OSX Lion 10.7.4, Quickbooks Pro 2010, Parallels Desktop 7 for Mac, Operating in Windows 7.  Are there any recommendations for running Quickbooks Pro 2010?

    I have Mac OSX Lion 10.7.4, Quickbooks Pro 2010, Parallels Desktop 7 for Mac, Operating in Windows 7.  Quicbooks Pro 2010 is not responding or opening currently. Quickbooks does not support Parallels anymore.  I hear Apple Bootcamp is an opton.  Are there any recommendations for running Quickbooks Pro 2010 on Mac?

    QuickBooks Pro 2010 for Mac is not supported in Lion. QB Pro 2011 will work, but I just got an email today that 2011 will not be updated to work in Mountain Lion. QB Pro 2012 will be updated for ML.
    Be aware that the Mac version of QuickBooks is shamefully lacking in features compared to the Windows version. I do use the Mac version, but it has more features than I need for a small business, so it doesn't affect me. No one knows why Intuit seems to hate Mac users, but they show it every day.
    If QB Pro 2012 for Mac can be downloaded as a demo, I would strongly suggest testing with it before making a final decision. You will be able to import the Windows data, but possibly not all of it, depending on the Windows version features you use.
    Boot Camp allows you to install Windows on its own, bootable partition. When you boot to it, you are of course running Windows in every sense of the word. Just on Mac hardware rather than typical PC gear. Your Windows version of QB will work there without issue. The problem is having to boot back and forth between Windows and OS X, depending on what software it is you need to use at the time.

  • HT5225 I have Mac OSX snow leopard , which I think is OSX10.6.8. I did as I was told and migrated to icloud having advised that not all devices were up to the Lion. I now find that the mobile phone receives the emails and so does the ipad, but not my desk

    I have Mac OSX snow leopard , which I think is OSX10.6.8. I did as I was told and migrated to icloud having advised that not all devices were up to the Lion. I now find that the mobile phone receives the emails and so does the ipad, but not my desktoptop. I have received an email from apple saying I would be able to receive the emails. Why cant I?  What do I have to do ? Surely it is not necessary to buy another upgrade???

    10.7.2 is required for full iCloud facilities, but you can still use your email. In theory you should be able to access your email in Mail at the same server settings, but this hasn't worked for everyone: you can set Mail up manually to access your iCloud email:
    Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard
    Once migrated, your mail will also be available at http://icloud.com

  • Firefox 4.0 will not download at all, I get the circle with a slash. I have mac osx.

    I had firefox 3.6, downloaded free upgrade, which totally replaced the old one, it's gone.
    But the new icon has a circle and slash on it and is not viable. Doesn't work, doesn't open, messages says: You cannot open the application Firefox.app because it is not supported on this system.
    I have Mac OSX 10.4.11.

    Same problem, but I'm on OSX 10.5.8 - non Intel mac.
    Wording is actually "... because it is not supported on this architecture."
    Ironic that I have to use Safari to post this. :)

  • I have MAC OSX 10.5.8 and need to install adobe illustrator. I checked the compatibility and found that CS5 will work.Can any one help where i can find it. The trail version is fine with me.

    I have MAC OSX 10.5.8 and need to install adobe illustrator. I checked the compatibility and found that CS5 will work.Can any one help where i can find it. The trail version is fine with me as i just have to use it for couple of days till i get my mac book back from service. Can any one help me on this.

    You are welcome, ameronweb.
    To elaborate a bit, you may come across offers of a new/unopened/unregistered version, which is the simplest case (you would need a guarantee). Other cases require much detailed information (and a guarantee).
    If upgrading to 10.6.8 or higher is an option, you could use CS6.

    Instead of getting a wireless card for the Mac Pro, you might want to consider getting an 802.11ac wireless bridge device that would enable you to connect more than one device to it by Ethernet cable and to eventually take advantage of the faster 802.11ac wireless standard.
