I need to upgrade higer than Mac OS X 10.5.8.

Does anyone know how? I just got the iphone 5 and I cant use the cloud and sync my stuff because the version of mac os x I have is too old. Help!

No, you need to order the 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD from the online Apple Store.
The Early 2006 model 1,1 Core Duo can only run a maximum of 10.6 Snow Leopard.
The models Late 2006 Core 2 Duos 2,1 through Early 2008 4,1 can only run a maximum of 10.7 Lion.
The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody through the Mid 2010 White Unibody model 7,1 can run 10.8 Mountain Lion.
You will need to be running 10.6.8 to access the App Store to order Lion or Mountain Lion.
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Once you are at 10.6.8 Lion is still available from Apple. Lion will allow you to access iCloud. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store. The price is $19.99.
You must have at least a Late 2006 model 2,1 MacBook. Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

Bought Aperture 3.3 upgrade on Mac and need to upgrade my other mac

I purchased aperture 3.3 upgrade on my Mac and have another mac with an older version of Aperture. How can I upgrade on my other mac.
Appreciate the help.

ah yes that would change it a little
copy the DMG (if you downloaded it) to your other system and install it there
or download the demo on the other system (the one running AP2) and put the serial number in there

What do I need to upgrade my (2005) Mac Mini to run OS 10.6?

Looking to upgade to run 10.6 but my mac currently runs OS 10.4.
The specs:
Processor, 1.5 GHZ power G4
Memory, 512 MB DDR SDRAM
All feedback is appreciated.

If you mean technically, yes, you can upgrade to 10.5, as long as you get a retail copy of the Mac OS X 10.5 installer. The system disk from another Mac won't work and isn't legal.
If you are asking if you can still purchase Mac OS X 10.5, if you call the online Apple Store, they may still have copies available. They did until recently, at least, even though they no longer show 10.5 on the web site. If they don't, you'll have to look to private sellers; dealers who handle discontinued software, eBay, etc.
You may want to consider just replacing the mini, though. As a PowerPC system, there's going to be more and more software that won't run on it. Intel-based minis turn up regularly on eBay; try to get one with a Core 2 Duo processor if possible.
Regards.

Upgrading higher than mac os x 10.6.8

Hi
I have recently bought a second hand iMac (white one) with Mac OS X 10.6.8 on it - but am unable to upgrade to any higher software or change the mobileme icon to icoud.
Does anyone have any ideas?
With thanks
Jo

Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu.
If the processor is listed as Core Duo, it can't be upgraded further.
If the processor is listed as Core 2 Duo or better, purchase Mountain Lion from the Mac App Store. If this produces a message that the computer is incompatible, phone the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion.
Getting the iCloud icon requires upgrading to at least 10.7.2.

Need to upgrade memory in ppc mac mini

Does anyone know of a step by step guide with pictures to installing memory in a ppc mac mini? Need to upgrade to a gig to use some graphics software. Thanks,
Steve

In sleep mode (STR) the RAM has to be refreshed to
keep the memory content, so the more you got the more
power will be consumed on this.
Having less ram will therefore benefit battery life
in sleep mode.
This is only of concern to portable users of course, and the additional RAM has barely any impact on power demand whether from mains-power or battery. Some admittedly, but not much. Nor would it be all that easy to tell what drain it caused since there are other variables involved with battery drain rates too, such as ambient temperature.
There is still room for improvement in whatever
algorithm it is that determines when "inactive"
memory is released. Paging frequently happens after
copying large files since all memory is in use and
"recently" so, even if this use is one where the
content is NOT likely to be needed again.
The much hyped idea that "old" inactive memory is
being released when more is needed I find it
difficult to confirm, or paging would not be needed.
Simply caching EVERYTHING does not in my mind count
as an "intelligent" algorithm..
As much as this may be valid, there is no way the user is able to change the algorithm - it's part of the operating system. As such, the user can really only take such steps as may be possible to improve the working of the system - one significant such step being adding RAM.
This can be cleared up by running "repair
permissions" in DU, since it seems to release much of
the inactive RAM. It would be much better to have a
small utility to do this, though, if making the OS
more intelligent is not an option.
Running disk utility may be an effective method of resolving memory allocations etc, but it then places the onus on the user to monitor the system and manually activate a process. Part of the appeal of MacOS to many people is that it removes much of the onus users of other operating systems feel is placed on them to keep tuning the system - activities which detract from the use of the system.
Ultimately, I have to say that I have never found the need to do anything of that sort. I do use MenuMeters (a very neat little app to place system monitoring tools in the menu bar and which uses barely any CPU overhead to do so) to watch the status of my system, but only as an occasional troubleshooting aid when I'm testing software or experimenting with the system. That is about as far as I go with anything other than using the system. Certainly, I've not found any need to perform the sort of tasks that are often being recommended, and even the systems I run 24/7 remain efficient in operation.
I can say that while my G4 was running off a 5400rpm drive, increasing RAM from 768Mb to 1.5Gb quite dramatically improved performance of both 10.4 and 10.2 but had little benefit in OS9 (all booting from separate drives). The effects were rather less noticeable after swapping out to 7200 drives instead.

IMac w Mac Os 10.5.8 needs to upgrade. HOW?

iMac w Mac Os 10.5.8 needs to upgrade. HOW?
My Time Warner account for email just stopped allowing my MACMAIL program to send mail out. We tried to change settings but that just stopped
email in AND out. Put it back to the original settings. No answer as to why. I assume the OS system is too archaic, and will soon be bounced out.
How do I upgrade? Never have before. My old PowerMac is still OS9, and has thousands of dollars of working software with NO EMAILS
or INTERNET available. Chose to leave System 9. Can I upgrade from 10.5.8 to the newer ones, and HOW???? HELP PLEASE!
Thanks!

To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.

I have a G5 mac using ver 10.4.11 and a newer mac using ver 10.8.4 these are networked. using the new mac i looked up my my photo on the old mac. It then said you need to upgrade your library which it did. Now the old mac can not open the photos

I have a G5 mac using ver 10.4.11 and a newer mac using ver 10.8.4 these are networked. using the new mac i looked up my my photo on the old mac. It then said you need to upgrade your library which it did. Now the old mac can not open the photos and say that I need to upgrade my I photo to a newer version. The old mac has no more support from apple in software update so I am not sure where I should go from here. can I use new soft ware with the old mac

The other part of the upgrade message was a warning that once you upgraded you would no longer be able to open the library with the old version which is exaclty what you did and what happened when you choose to continue
The iphoto library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto. Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iphoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process may take several minutes depending on the number of photos in the library. Cancel or upgrade.
So now your choices are to not use iPhoto with the previous version using it onky with the newer version, restore your backup from before you did this upgrade or purchase iPhoto Library Manager and use it to rebuild the library using the older version of iPhoto (instructions are on their web site) thereby downgrading it (without projects)
