I need to update from 10.5.8 on iBookG4.how do I do that?

I have an iBookG4, using Mac osx 10.5.8. I need to upgrade this to 10.6 snow leopard. Can this be done just by
purchasing the 10.6 dvd from apple ?

Sorry, Snow Leopard (10.6) requires an Intel processor. 10.5.8 is the highest possible for that model.

Yes! If your Mac meets the requirements:

I manage 60 ipads for a school using Apple Configurator. Need to update to iOS7 and AC1.4.3...Is it best to use Mountain Lion or Mavericks, as I also need to update from Lion 10.7 for the new AC and iOS to work properly.

I always run a Time Machine backup before updating anything and recommend you run a backup as well. Paid apps should migrate over without any problem. If you have problems with VPP codes not transfering over properly, you can talk to your Apple SE or contact VPP for Education support and they can help you. While I haven't experienced any problems with updating, its never a guarantee that others will have the same experience.
Good luck!

I need to update from 10.6.3

I need to update from 10.6.3. Do I need to update slowly from 10.6.4, 10.6.5 etc or can I update directly to 10.6.8?

No. Just download Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 and install it.

Will I need to update from Mountain Lion (10.8.4) to Mavericks prior to the Yosemite rollout this fall?

I am running Mountain Lion (10.8.4) currently. I rolled back to Mountain Lion from Mavericks back in October 2013 because I was having problems with it. However, I've heard there are improvements to Maverick since my initial install. My question is will I need to update from Mountain Lion to Maverick in order to update to Yosemite this fall? Thanks in advance.

If your goal is to install Yosemite upon its release, I doubt you will need to do it from Mavericks.
If Mountain Lion does not have features you need and Yosemite will, then, as WZZZ suggest, give Yosemite a chance to have any bugs worked out first.
If your concern is security, Mavericks is the current OS but Apple is still providing Security Updates for Lion, so Mountain Lion should still be good to go for a while yet.

You need to purchase a retail Leopard install disk or Snow Leopard upgrade disk(if your computer meets requirements for SL). Then update iTunes to 10.1 or greater. Check eBay or Amazon for retail Leopard Disks. You can also try calling AppleCare.

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:

I need to move 1000 photos from one library to another. How do I do that and keep the ratings and dates they were created?

I need to move 1000 photos from one library to another. How do I do that and keep the ratings and dates they were created? I tried exporting them, but it loses all info. Also, how do I move the quicktime movies from one iphoto library to another? They were exported as jpgs

Add both libraries to iPhoto Library Manager. Then select the events or albums that you want to copy from library A and drag them to library B in iPLM.

What model iPod do you have? A 2G only can go to 4.2.1. The 3G and 4G can go to the latest. 4.3.3. Identify your iPod here:

Apps are permanently tied to the ID used to purchase them.
Go to https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/ and re-set th password for the old one.
Then, log into the app store with it and update the apps purchased with that ID.

HT1544 I'm trying to install the latest version of iTunes and the pop up tells me that I need to install Mac OS X 10.5. How do I do that?

I'm trying to install the latest version of iTunes and the pop up tells me that I need to install Mac OS X 10.5. How do I do that?

OS 10.5.x is the max OS for Macs with a PowerPC processor. If your iMac has an Intel processor you can upgrade to Snow Leopard OS 10.6.x and possibly Lion OS 10.7

Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753).
If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:
MB427Z/A Leopard 10.5.1 install DVD
MB576Z/A Leopard 10.5.4 install DVD
MB021Z/A Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (single user)
MB022Z/A Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (5-user family pack)

After you install the base 10.5, download & install the 10.5.8 combo update at http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_8_Combo_Update
The DVD should look like this
Caution - Leopard does not support classic mode. So, if you currently open OS 9 apps in classic mode, you won't be able to do this if you upgrade to Leopard.

Hello! I'm out of the country and all my iWeb information is on my computer at home. Now I need to make changes on the webpage... how can i do that without using the computer i made the page on? Thank you!!

Hello! I'm out of the country and all my iWeb information is on my computer at home. Now I need to make changes on the webpage... how can i do that without using the computer i made the page on? Thank you!!

iWeb uses the domain.sites2 files to store its assets.
You'll find it here :
~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/
where ~ is your Home directory.
If you take a computer with you, you have to store that file in the same location.
It's not different from taking documents with you if you want to edit them.
A solution is to remotely control your computer at home.
TeamViewer, LogMeIn, Apple Remote Desktop or any VNC application you can use, like "Chicken of the VNC".
