I know if I want to update my 0S x.5 to Mountain Lion, I have to update to Snow Leopard and Lion first. Where do I find the Snow Leopard download?

I'm trying to upgrade my daughter's computer for college. She currently has OS 10.5.8. She needs to upgrade to Mountain Lion. I know I have to upgrade to Snow Leopard and Lion first. I can't find the download for either. Please help!  I was in the site the other day and thought I saw a link, but now I can't find it.
Thanks.

There is no download for Snow Leopard and never was for the general public. Phone the Apple Store and buy it.
Purchasing Lion isn't necessary to get Mountain Lion, but you will need to run the Mac OS X 10.6.8 combo updater.

    You cannot download OS X.
    If you need Snow Leopard contact Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service. The price is $29.00 plus tax. You will receive physical media - DVD - by mail.
    Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
    Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
    Snow Leopard from eBay
    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.

  • I have a MacBook and want to download Bonjour so I can use Dragon Dictate.  Where do I find the download app to do this?

    I have a Mac Book and just purchased Dragaon Dictate.  I need to download Bonjour to allow the microphone to work.  But where do I find the application to download Bonjour?

    Sue321,
    It's a waste of a very expensive Mac to use it as a simple Netflix/TV streamer when less expensive and more capable devices exist. The Mac will get dirty from being exposed, overheat and just be a pain hooking cables whenever you want to watch TV and trying to fiddle with a remote.
    A better low cost option is to get either a $60 Roku or a AppleTV, or if you want to play BlueRay and regular movie DVD's and have a few video games around for the kids, then a Playstation. Buy a HDMI cable online, they are only about $10.
    All three options have a remote control, and every thing is designed to work on the screen, no need for the computer.
    With the Mac, your going to have problems with copy protection, sound and other accessibility problems as computers are not really designed to be used as entertainment devices, or to power a big screen, but rather versatile tools, and along with that versatility comes some sacrifice.
    You can use the same Netflix account for both the Mac AND the Roku etc., at the same time, in fact both are very much integrated, watch one show on the Mac while having another on the TV.
    Also if you so happen to burn out or have a electrical accident with the less expensive device, it's only $60, instead of a few thousand $$ with the Mac. Not to mention once you set it up, the Roku, AppleTV etc is pretty much done, sits there ready to be used as intended for anyone to use who can push a button.

    If this involves downloading Adobe software then it is probably your computer's security password, nothing to do with Adobe.

    I have a monthly subscription for PS and Lightroom.
    When I opened Lightroom this morning, it told me an upgrade was available through CC. I probably did something wrong, butI couldn't get it to download.
    I came on the forum and read a couple of discussions on your pages and found a reply that posted links to the pages where Lightroom 5.7 could be downloaded.
    I clicked the link and downloaded the update fine.
    However, now when Lightroom opens, it is asking whether I want to BUY or have a free 30 day trial and won't progress any further into the app.
    My CC icon reveals that my software is up to date but I can't get past this register screen, without selecting BUY or FREE 30 TRIAL .
    can anyone help please?

  • Where can I find the a downloaded file by Software update?

    Where can I find the a downloaded file by Software update?
    For example is there any way to find a package which is downloaded but is not installed(because the installation failed) (in this case 10.5.5) and I don't want to download it once again neither manually nor with software update.

    For example is there any way to find a package which is downloaded but is not installed(because the installation failed) (in this case 10.5.5)
    Failed installs usually remove the package, just as a proper install removes the package
    All that remains for a proper installation is a Receipt in on of the following directories:
    ~/Library/Receipts (for user-specific installs)
    Macintosh HD/Library/Receipts
    for system-wide installations, including OS-X updates.
    and I don't want to download it once again neither manually nor with software update.
    If it did not install, there is no Receipt and the downloaded file is not on your system
    If you don't want to see it again in automatic updates, put it on ignore.

  • HT5766 Where can I find the size of a download for a software update now?

    Hello,
    Where can I find the size of a download for a software update now?
    Since I upgraded to Mountain Lion (Mac OSX 10.8.3) this information is no longer available in software updates listing you get if you click on the Software Update menu item from the Apple menu.
    I found the download size (often hundreds of megabytes for an individual update and sometimes a set of updates might amount to a few gigabytes) to be very helpful, and now that it seems no longer available (I can't even see it on the web page I came to for more information, thinking the download size would surely be specified there), it is frustrating. My current example is iTunes 11.0.3
    I would greatly appreicate having this information back in the software updates listing, but since it is no longer available there, and I don't know where else to find it, if anybody can enlighten me to its whereabouts, I'd be grateful.
    Thanks and cheers!

  • I have a 10.5.8 MacBook Pro that I want to upgrade to Snow Leopard.  Where do I find the upgrade code

    I have a MacBook Pro from September 2007 that I want to upgrade to the latest OS.  I have 10.5.8 on it now, but can't seem to find the code or files any where to upgrade it to 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) so I can then step it up to Mountain Lion.  Anyone have a link to where I can find this code.

    It is no longer available from Apple. You will need to purchase a (lack) Leopard retail install disk from Amazon or eBay and then update via Software Update to the final version, 10.5.8.
