I Have OSX 10.5.8 how can i get OSX 10.6 or can I jump to the next upgrade ?

In order to proceed you have to upgrade to Snow Leopard (10.6.8) first: you can purchase this from the online Apple Store. Note that you must have an Intel Mac in order to install this (and you should check the other requirements, listed in the Technical Specifications on the Store page, before purchasing). As you have Leopard it's possible your Mac is a PPC one: if this is the case you cannot upgrade any further.
Once you have upgraded to Snow Leopard you can obtain Mavericks for free from the App Store in your Applications folder. The requirements for Mavericks are:
OS X v10.6.8 or later
2GB of memory
8GB of available space
and the supported models are:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
If you are unable to install Mavericks (it won't let you if your Mac isn't compliant with the requirements) you may be able to install Lion.
The requirements for Lion are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99).
You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

My e-mail address has changed and i-tunes still recognizes me by the old one. I can't get authorization to move songs from one computer to the next.

When I first got started with Mac, I had a different e-mail address. I have a new e-dress and new passwords, but much of what I bought was with that old e-dress. Now, I'm trying to migrate my i-tunes library to a new computer, and I can't get authorized to move or play songs on the new computer.
Does anyone know what to do? (A once and for all reset of Apple username and password).....
Thnx

Have the tracks become unchecked? iTunes will skip unchecked tracks, so if they're all unchecked, iTunes will play one and then stop. If this is indeed the case, re-checkmark the tracks - Command-click on any checkbox will select or unselect them all - and you should then have continuous playback.
Hope this helps.

I will address your second question.
First, make sure your iPhone and iPad have absolutely identical Apple IDs. If they do, use that Apple ID in Settings > iCloud on your iPhone to select the "Notes" option. Lo and behold, all your iCloud notes should appear on your iPhone.

I have a new Apple TV which is working fine except that I cannot access .mov files which are in my iTunes Library. How can I get to these? I can run them on my computer and select Apple TV on the screen, but the Apple TV goes to a black screen

Mov is a container format, you'd need to look at the codec used by the movie file inside the container to know whether it will work with the Apple TV or not.

How do I get an iPod touch to turn on other than the normal way. It has been dropped and all I can get is a blank screen. Have tried holding the HOME button down for 30 sec. but that didn't work.

How does one get an iPod nano to turn on other than the "normal" way? This one has been dropped and all I can get is a blank screen. I have tried holding down the HOME button to restart it but no go. When I connect it to my computer, I am told to enter the PASSCODE which I cannot do as there is no touchpad.

David ..
Your topic refers to an iPod touch
Then you say: How does one get an iPod nano to turn on ......
If it's an iPod touch, try a reset.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, whether it's an iPod nano or touch, it probably needs service > Apple - Support - Service Answer Center

The easy way is to Purchase an External Enclosure like the Startech USB 3.0 S2510BPU33 with UASP, its a Super Fast connection, SATA 3.1 @ 6 Gb/s.
Just Pop your SSD inside the enclosure and use OS X Disk Utility to clone your existing HDD. This enclosure is So Fast you would not even have to open up your Mini to install the SSD, just Boot Externally you would Never Know the difference and your Warranty won't be affected by opening it up.
What Mini do you have ?

An app I purchased and downloaded directly to my Ipad is missing and not in my app files on my PC. When I go to the app store to re-download it I can not the says I have already downloaded it. How do I get my app back?

An app I purchased and downloaded directly to my Ipad is missing and not in my app files on my PC. When I go to the app store to re-download it I can not and the app says I have already downloaded it. How do I get my app back?

You should be able to copy it from your iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases, or you should be able to re-download it via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes Store home page - if that says that it's already downloaded, then that implies that it's already on your computer

I was charged for a movie that never was downloaded, i asked for it but the conection was too slow and I never was able to have the movie that i asked for...how can i get it without being charged again, who could remove the chage from my Crecit card?

You may not be able to get a refund, since the terms of sale for the iTunes Store state that all sales are final. You can contact the iTunes Store, explain the reason for your request, and ask, though:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html
It's possible they'll make an exception for you, particularly if the problem was on their end preventing the movie from downloading in a reasonable time.
Good luck.

I seem to have deleted Passbook off my iPhone. How can I get it back? I can't see it listed in the appstore anywhere.

I seem to have deleted Passbook off my iPhone. How can I get it back? I can't see it listed in the appstore anywhere.

It is not possible to delete any of the bundled apps. You may have moved it to another home screen or inadvertently dropped it into a folder. If you search for the app or reset the home screen layout - Settings/General/Reset - that should bring it back to the default location. There also may be a setting to turn Passbook off in the General/Restrictions, but not having an iPhone with iOS 6 I'm not sure.

HT204053 my mac book pro does not have icloud . It has mobile me. How do i get icloud so that i can link up my new iphone?

Hello community,
I cannot find the icloud on my macbook pro and I have anew iphone 5. how do i get the icloud on the macbook pro?

If your mac book pro still has mobileme in System Preferences but no icloud icon, then you need to upgrade the OSX to 10.7.2 or higher (Mountain Lion is 10.8.x).
By the way, if you never migrated from mobileme to icloud, then it's now way too late to do that. All your mobileme data has been deleted and you'll need to set up a new icloud account.
