I just had a new hard drive installed and want to upgrade from the 10.5.8 operating system What do I need to purchase?

What do I need to purchase to update my IMac with the OS X 10.5.8 operating system?

All Intel iMac's can run 10.6 Snow Leopard.
To get it, go to > Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.)
If you want Mountain Lion, you wiil need to check and see if it meets the requirements.
see > Upgrade your Mac to OS X Mountain Lion.

Had a new hard drive installed and want to move book marks to new drive

I had a new hard drive installed and want to move my book marks from the old HD to the new HD
Not sure how to access the FireFox book marks on the old HD and how to install them in the FireFox on the new drive

See [[recovering important data from an old profile]] in particular the section "Copying files between profile folders" and the one below it that describes the files in the profile folder.
The article shows how to find your current profile folder, you will need to find the equivalent folder on the old drive, the path to the current profile folder should show you where to look on the old HD for the old profile folder. The actual folder name for the profile folder will be different, but the path to it should be the same.

I just had a new hard drive installed and now my pages and numbers are missing... do I have to purchase those?

My hard drive died on my MacBook Pro. So the Apple store installed a new hard drive for me yesterday. Now I can't find Pages or Numbers at all. Do I have to purchase these? Thanks for the feedback!

Did you purchase them or did they come with your Mac?

i just had a new hard drive installed on my iMac (due to the Seagate replacement program) i was able to migrate my back up(i think) but its now acting like a new computer and i can't get past the registration screen. I filled everything out but the "continue" button won't highlight and let me cxontinue.

Ah the mac wants to play games..
Ok, You should be able to click on continue twice so to skip it.
What version is the OS you restored? Or did you just perform Migration Assistant on it?

Maybe. What kind of other computer are you talking about? What operating system is it running? What kind of wireless router are you using?
Your best bet may be to just reset the router and set it up again.
Just so you know, WEP is a very old security system for wireless and is considered insecure. If you have it available, use WPA2.

You need to reinstall the printer driver, and set up the printer on the new hard drive.
The Canon site should have the driver. Download it and install.
Then go to Apple menu / System Preferences / Print & Fax and click the + (plus sign) and follow the directions.

I've had a new hard drive installed and reloaded all my stuff via time capsule and now can't connect to the internet although it say Airport is connected. How can I fix this problem ?

Just had a new hard drive for my iMac and reloaded all my stuff via time capsule, all works fine apart from Safari which won't connect to internet. Airport is connected but each time Safari comes back saying there is no connection....any help gratefully recieved.

So you have the apple rotuer called a time capsule and you have complete the frist time machine back up? but there is not internet access ?
If so.
Opem airport utiltiy on your Comptuer :
What is the IP ? > if its 169.254.xx.xx > its a self assigned
Try power cycling the Internet source for up to 1 mintue and make sure all the lights turn off.
In Airport Utility Version 5.5.3 / 5.6.1

In airport Utility version 6.0/6.1
Edit > network > rotuer mode : Should be DHCP and NAT unless you use PPPoE to conecnt to the internet then this is automatically invoked.

HT201250 I just had a new hard drive installed in my iMac. Migration manager cannot see my external Time Machine hard drive to restore the files and applications. The drive is operational in Finder

I cannot seem to migrate the full time machine backup from an external hard drive back to the new hard drive. Finder sees the drive and files. When I use Migration managers, it only sees the computer hard drive after I select the time machine option to restore the files.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
With what OS X version did you make the backup? If it was the same as the version you are using now, you don't have to use Migration Assistant to restore the backup. Instead, there's a safer and better method, but you will lose all the changes you have made since the last time you made the backup.
Just hold Command and R keys while your Mac is starting to start into OS X Recovery. Then, select the option to restore a Time Machine backup, and follow its steps. Also, you will be able to select the backup you want to restore

I just had a new hard drive put in at the AppleStore. When I looked at the icon, I noticed that it was named snow08. Is that normal - or do I have someone else's hard drive?

I just had a new hard drive installed at the Apple Store. When I looked at it, the hard drive was named snow08
Is that odd? Do I have someone else's hard drive?

I think apple named your drive snow08. I really don't think they would replace your drive without the new one completly erased, that would be pretty sloppy of them. I guess they could have, i just do not think they would have!

Can't imaging something not being covered there.

Do you have the original hard drive?
If you purchased the music and books from the Apple iTunes store you can redownload (most of) them again.

Had a new hard drive installed last month. now iphoto won't start up, popup says "you can't open the application iphoto because it may be damaged or incomplete. can this be repaired without going to the repair shop?

What installed iPhoto there in the first place? Was it the same version of iPhoto that came with the Mac? Was iLife added at a later time from a Mac Box Set? You can selectively install iPhoto, and then apply the appropriate iLife update without taking it to the shop, after removing the application, or recover it from your backup.
