I now have snow leopard 10.6.3
I upgraded my os to snow leopard 10.6.3 from a recommendation from here to be able to upgrade my safari. Does any one know how I upgrade my safari now?
What I have now
os- snow leopard 10.6.3
safari - 4.0.4 (6531.21.100
Run the Software Update pane of System Preferences twice. If that doesn't update you to a version of Safari new enough, you need to switch browsers, or if your Mac's compatible, upgrade it to Lion, Mountain Lion, or Yosemite.

My Mac Book Pro will be 4 years old in Sept. I now have Snow Leopard and bought an IPhone 4S this week. I know I need Lion to use ICloud. Can I upgrade to Lion with a computer this old?
As long as it meets the minimum requirements:
Lion System Requirements
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
At least 2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space on hard drive
Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply. -
Am running FCP5, but upgraded to iMac a few months ago. Noted that some features of FCP5 like Boris text are no longer available. Was told by local Apple store that new operating system I now have (Snow Leopard) will drop some such elements. Is this true? Noted same thing in LIVE TEXT.

How to eliminate Duplicate photos in I-Photo as I now have Snow Leopard

Can I purchase Mountain Lion and make a flash drive bootable? I do not want to install it on my Macbook Pro. I have Snow Leopard on my Macbook Pro now, and due to my hard drive needing repair, I need to boot off of another source, like my flash drive. I am in Paris and my Snow Leopard DVD is in Texas.
Mac OS X has a built-in disk diagnostic and repair program called fsck or file system consistency check. Here’s how to verify and repair your startup disk with fsck. As soon as you hear the startup tone, press and hold Command-S on the keyboard. Keep holding down those keys until you see a black screen with white lettering. This is called “booting into Single User Mode.” As the Mac boots in this mode, the screen reports each step of the process. The line should end in root#. Right after the root# prompt, enter the following: /sbin/fsck -fy
If repairing the disk in single user mode fails, it means one of two things. Either your hard drive itself is failing (a hardware failure), or the directory damage on your hard drive is beyond the capability of the built-in repair procedures in OS X. -
Can I Upgrade my computer to Lion. I have a 2 GHz Intel Core Duo Processor. My computer is 6 years old. Right now I have Snow Leopard.
I have an old iMac about that age that I upgraded to Lion to test my 3rd party applications for compatibility. It upgraded quite simply. Please backup or save all your info/etc to an external CD/DVD/Hard drive, then try to run the installer. The Lion installer will analize your Mac for compatibility before it does anything, and will alert you to it's decisision. My 17" iMac is also 2 GHZ Intel core duo. Surprisingly for many of the things I use it for it works as good as my multi thousand dollar MacPro workstation. Best of luck. But Lion isn't compatible with many third party applications and drivers for printers; scanners; etc.

I have snow leopard 10.6.8 and want to get on iCloud which requires Lion... should I buy Lion at $29.99 now and upgrade to Mountain Lion when available (I can't see where it is available for download yet) and what is cost of upgrade to Mountain Lion? Or should I simply wait for Mountain Lion?
I would wait for Mountain Lion to be released. According to Apple, Mountain Lion will be released by end of July 2012.
It will cost you only $19.99 to upgrade. You can find all the details at the following link...

I am looking for an alternative to install Lion OS on my Macbook pro running with Leopard... I checked in Stores they dont have Snow Leopard disks anymore... its a zombiee Apple had made me struck... also it dont make sense to buy Snow Leopard for Lion upgrade, which I may not be using..
If apple has to earn they can charge me bit more bucks... but this is total nonsense to make a OS dependent on previous version...I never saw Microsoft, Red Hat, IBM, Sun doing all this for there different environments..
Please suggest an alternative.You can buy the USB Stick version of Lion http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD256?mco=MjQ1MzkyMDY you won't need to update to Snow Leopard with this version.

I'm trying to migrate from mobileMe to iCloud but I have Snow Leopard (the latest version). It looks like Lion is no longer available because Mountain Lion comes out next month (July). The problem is mobileMe ends on June 30th. How can I migrate?
My iphone and my ipad are compatible but when I try to go to icloud on my phone it says to do it on my computer.
I would like to have my calendar, contacts, etc.. all sync like they do now. Is there a way to upgrade before June 30th? If not, will the gap be an issue or will I just be able to buy mountain lion and sync everything?
Any suggestions?
Thank you!You can buy Lion in the App Store now, but move to iCloud now. If you wait to Mountain Lion, you will only have Mail in Snow Leopard, so you will lose syncing unless you use Lion or Mountain Lion. It's up to you

Can't update quicktime or java I have snow leopard
I have a mac mini intel box with snow leopard (used to be leopard). I recently changed from opera to firefox and the plug in checker is complaining about having a outdated version of quicktime and java. I did software update and it says no new software available. I have quicktime 7.5 I guess-whatever came with the lion os update cd disc. Going to sun for java I find they don't support anything older than lion. Must I now buy lion just to stay secure ?. I can't afford a new mac. And don't want to have to rebuy all my programmes again and lose my files. Maybe lion will let me keep my programmes and files like snow leopard did.
Is the plug in checker just being incorrect? I disabled java for the time being. But I can't remove quicktime. I use it a lot. I have a intel core 2 duo processor and 1.5 gig of ram. I guess I could up it to 4 gig if I had to "upgrade" os yet again. There's nothing that really interests me in Lion or Mavericks but I don't want security issues--I'll just try to disable the silly gingerbread in the new os's if possible. I don't use social media, or stream to a tv or media box. And I'm to poor to own a smart phone or ipod or ipad. My computer is my tv. I don't want my internet connection to slow down due to stuff I never use connecting to the internet in the background.You would need to upgrade OS X:
Upgrading to Mavericks
You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Mavericks
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.
OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
Lion System Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
or Xeon processor
2. 2GB of memory
3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
4. 7GB of available space
5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply. -
I curently have Snow Leopard MAC OS X 10.6.8 & want to upgrade to Mountain Lion - would I encounter any problems? If so -- what?

2. OS X Lion and Mountain Lion aren't compatible with PowerPC applications. After upgrading, if you have a PowerPC application (as Office 2004, AppleWorks, old Final Cut Pro editions, etc.), they will be moved to a special folder and they will stop working. Check that your apps are supported > http://www.roaringapps.com
If you are unable or unwilling to update to Intel versions of your PowerPC applications (if you have any), you can install Snow Leopard Server (with Rosetta) into Parallels or VMWare Fusion and continue to use most PowerPC applications concurrently with Lion or Mt. Lion:

i have snow leopard, 10.6.8 on my mac pro. would it make sense to wait for mountain lion in the summer vice upgrading to Lion then mountaion lion?
Nobody can tell you that. We don't yet know what the pricing will be or what kind of compatibility issues may arise. If you don't need anything in Lion right now, you can certainly wait, and if you do find the features of Lion compelling, there's no reason to wait for 6 months. Buy what you need when you need it, and don't worry so much about what's ahead... there's always something new coming soon!

I currently have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and I want to upgrade to Lion 7.4. I see no upgrades available to get there. Can someone help me?

Maybe they've pulled Lion temporarily in order to clear server bandwidth for the expected feeding frenzy over ML?
There's always that possibility but I suspect that any Lion purchases today will be just a drop in the bucket. Still, there really ought to be some provision for those whose Macs can't go beyond Lion to upgrade since continued Snow Leopard support is now in question (the reason I finally moved to Lion).
There are a lot of people complaining that their free upgrade redeem codes for ML aren't working so I bet keeping Lion available is way down on Apple's to-do list. -

I have snow leopard version 10.6.8. How do I get my email now?
Apple states that you can get it through the website iCloud.com
However, you can also use your mail account if you set it up manually.
Delete your mail account from Mail preferences and set it up again using the Mail Server Information.
Some users have apparently encountered issues using this information in pre-Lion set ups (I haven't), Roger Wilmut has kindly provided instructions for those who find themselves with this problem.
Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard -
I currently have Snow Leopard and am thinking of upgrading to Lion but have heard some bad things about it. Should I upgrade or not? What do you like/dislike about Lion?
It is indeed all down to what you need to do with your machine. Snow leopard is an excellent OS and as Baltwo suggests you have to check out your current apps and programs because PPC won't work on any higher OS than the one you have.
Andy's comment is very interesting and, I suspect, insider knowledge based Certainly I would wait for Mavericks now it is on the horizon ... and then add six months or so for the bugs to be ironed out.
Good luck, whatever you do. I'm staying with Snow Leopard.
