I purchased an iMac 24" with os 10.5.8(iMac model 6.1).  How high up the OS chain can I go with this model?

I am trying to find out how high up the OS X chain I can take this unit.  I have not been able to find anything solid online.  I know I can't go as high as Mountain Lion(this unit is a late 2006 model 6.1, with core2duo processor).  Thanks for any help.

First you need to research all the problems people are having with it higher OSX versions, & make sure you have a bootable clone of what you have just in case.
then you must get 10.6 if they still have it, install it & update to 10.6.8 so you have the App Store to buy & download the huge 10.8 Installer.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
   * Mac computer with an Intel processor
    * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...

It's been pulled from the online store, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.

  • How high up the OS ladder can I go with a 2007 macbook?

    How high up the OS ladder can I go with a 2007 macbook with 10.6.3 OS?

    If you have the MacBook from 2007, Snow Leopard might be the highest you can go for OS updates.  I believe that 10.6.8 is the last update for Snow Leopard.
    If your system is supported (has a Core 2 Duo processor, and 64 bit EFI, ...) then you can upgrade to Lion, and possibly to Mountain Lion.  I know that the last time I read the specs for Mountain Lion, my old MacBook Pro 3,1 (late 2007) was the oldest machine officially supported by Mountain Lion.

  • How high in itunes new versions can I go with 10.39?

    I have to stay with 10.39 for my primary software. I have itunes 7.3 installed but it won't recognize my Pioneer DVR-110 burner. When I try to burn a CD itunes says "No burner or disc burning software found."
    I noticed in the advanced settings for durning a tiny little caveat about "must have 10.4."
    So, what itunes version must I drop back to in order to burn a CD on my G4 running 10.39? And is it stll avalable at Apple.com?
    Totast works fine with the Pioneer on this computer.
    Thanks,
    [email protected]

    If you are able to burn CD's from itunes, do you know what brand and firmware version of CD burner you have? You should be able to see those numbers in the system profiler.
    Also, what version of itunes are you running?
    Thanks,
    Steve

  • I purchased the Brookstone DLP projector for the iPhone, and all the reviews state the iPhone 4S can be mirrored with it. However, I can't not figure out how to do so. Is there a setting to change? Can't figure it out! ARGGG!

    I purchased the Brookstone DLP projector for the iPhone, and all the reviews state the iPhone 4S can be mirrored with it. However, I can't not figure out how to do so. Is there a setting to change? Can't figure it out! ARGGG!
    It will show pictures and videos if I choose, Start Slideshow, but it won't show anything else, no apps, etc.
    Here's a few examples of the reviews which state it mirrors:

    http://www.gadgetaddict.info/brookstone-pocket-projector-for-iphone-4-and-4s-rev iew/
    I bought this for video analysis presentations with an app on the phone, so this is a key feature for me.
    Any help is appreciated.

    I also have not figured out how to mirrow either.  I ask you both, is the sound via the projector louder than the phone itself when projector is tuerned off?  No matter what I do the max vilume through the projector speakers is lower that the phone itself even with phone remaining installed in projector.  I am think of taking it back to try another one.

  • Okay so I set up my Time Capsule already and is now backing up 2 of my iMacs. Works great. What I want to know is how to use the TC to directly store files? I want to do this to delete some files but still have them on the TC for future reference..

    Okay so I set up my Time Capsule already and is now backing up 2 of my iMacs. Works great. What I want to know is how to use the TC to directly store files? I want to do this to delete some files on iMac 20inch but still have them on the TC for future reference..eg some movies on iTunes. I want to directly save them on the drive so I can delete them from iTunes and gain some storage. (Ps on iMac 20 inch (it's almost full - 320 GB) when I enter time machine, a tab comes up on finder which reads "Time Machine backups" it's able to be ejected like a disc or a connected device. On the iMac 20 inch, I dragged some files onto there as if using it like a hard drive. Is this the correct method? Then I went to my 27inch iMac and saw the "Time Machine Backups" hoping to see the files I dragged from the 20inch iMac. But the files were not there except a folder that said "Backups.backupdb". Can someone help me?

    It's not a good idea to use a network disk for both Time Machine backups and other things.  By design Time Machine will eventually consume all the space on its output disk, which will then cause problem for your other files.  I'd store those other files on an external disk connected to the Time Capsule.  The problem with that is that Time Machine will only back up files that are local to your Mac.  That means that you'll only have one copy of the files on or attached to your Time Capsule.

    Google show that you have to cut what you want to print and then paste it into a new app and print from that app.

    I've just got a new Dell with windows 7.  When I try to download itunes it says the windows installer can't be found

    When your username includes a Charakter like "acson te graf" zhere is a Problem for Windows to find your installiert-Files. Yust Build another Username like "Dummy", give admistration rights, change to this user and install iTunes on this accout. Now you can Return to your Old account an use iTunes.
    I am still surching how to change the username in Windows but still no idea.

  • How to export the Apex web page to PDF with click of a button?

    How to export the Apex web page to PDF with click of a button?
    Am looking at exporting the Form view on APEX to be exported to PDF.

    In order to get a PDF, you need to generate a Report....in PDF format.
    If you are using the APEX Listener, you can initiate the download of the PDF by calling APEX_UTILS.download_print_document()  (I normally place this in a Process)
    BUT -- You have to create the Report (under Shared Components) and a Template (also under Shared Components).
    The white paper in my first post gives you the HOWTO "[Create] Custom PDF Reports with Oracle Application Express and the APEX Listener".
    Start by creating a Report (in Shared Components, bottom right) that uses a simple SQL statement like:
    Select * from emp where empno = :P15_EMPNO
    You may need to hard code the parameter before you hit "Download XML" button.
    The XML that you get from clicking "Download XML" satisfies the "Step 1 - Create an XML Data Source" found on Page 11 of the document.
    The rest of the instructions is in that whitepaper.
