Need information on how to upgrade from 10.5.8 to make computer compatable to iphone upgrade of 11.5.1

hi everyone: I require some information on how to upgrade from 10.5.8 to make my mackbook pro compatable
with the iphone upgrade. Please note that I have gone thru the upgrades on this computer and it tells me there are
no new ones available...... I need to get my upgrade past the 11.5.1 level.....so do I need to purchase a new
upgrade program....and if so which one...as I have been thru the apple store and so far as i can tell
the ones that are listed such as maverik, lion and snow lepard are not high enough.
To anyone who replies, thankyou so much for taking the time to help me. It is truely appreciated.

11.1.5 is likely to be the version of iTunes you are being asked to run, not the version of Mac OS X.
To get a higher version of iTunes, you likely have to upgrade Mac OS X. All Roads lead through the 10.6 Upgrade, available as a physical DVD only, from the Apple Online store for about US$20:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
This is one of the most benign Upgrades Apple has ever issued. The size of the Operating System gets smaller, performance is slightly faster, and very few Applications are left behind. If you have some older PowerPC Applications, you may need to ask to install the Optional Rosetta emulator for PowerPC code when you install.
Once your 10.6 install is fully Updated to 10.6.8 using Software Update, the Mac App Store will appear, and future upgrades (if needed) will be handled through variations of online purchases.

Just a bit confused in regards to upgrading from Logic 5 - to Logic 7

Hey all...
So I was an avid Logic 5 user on an iBook G3... (or I had the "big box' of plat/gold - see how confused I am/was/is...?? HELP!!)
SOmething happened and I had to wipe my hard drive on the iBook, and the new system I put on was OSX 10.3.9, and then when I re-installed Logic(x?) it just plain wouldn't run.... crashed all the time and sometimes never launch the app. When I bought it, I got it at Guitar Center and this was when emagic owned it. I have an XSKey and all the registration for it. So right when I thought I was getting somewhere, emagic sells it to Apple... blessing, but bittersweet, because I can't get anyone at Apple to help me out, other than saying I have to get the new one - and they will not run on my current computer.
SO HERE IT IS; I have finally decided to ditch the iBook G3 and trump up to the basic G5 Tower, load it with at least 2GB's of RAM - and then I figured I could just buy the; Logic Pro 7 Upgrade from Logic Pro 6 or Logic Plat/Gold 5, 6 for $299.00 (and from what I have been reading on here also get the Logic Pro 7.2 Crossgrade for $49.00...)
IS THIS WHAT I NEED...? Like I said before I have all the stuff from the Logic (emagic) and know its one of the above mentioned needed for the upgrade!...? And will this then bump me to Logic 7 Pro - Not Logic Express.....?? And is this a good thing or......
I apologize for being so confused - but I'm so willing to get back into Logic that I'm actually buying new hardware, just to get back into producing!!
The guys at the Apple store are helpful - but all look cross-eyed when I begin asking Logic (or any Pro application) questions.......
Thanks in advance all!!
*jeffrey

The Big Box was Logic Silver (not Gold or Plat). That's a steeper upgrade.
If what you bought was the 'Production Kit' that included an a/62m interface, then you have Gold.
If what you truly have is Gold 5, you will get Logic PRO 7 for the $299. I don't know if that now includes 7.2 or if that's still an extra $49 (being that they're going to charge Shake users who paid 3k on it $49 while they drop the price to $500, I'd expect 7.2 to still cost ya).

License key question with regards to upgrading from 7/8.1 to 10

Hi, I hope I've posted my question in the right area of the forum:
I understand that Windows 10 will be a free upgrade for Win7/Win8 users.
That's really wonderful but I was wondering what the exact mechanism with regards to our 7/8 license keys. Here's a couple examples to clarify my question:
first, example: I have Windows 7 Pro license and say I upgrade to 10 within the first year. Let's say I need to reinstall Windows after that first year is finished will I still be able to use that same license key I used to upgrade 7 to 10 to install a fresh
copy of Windows 10 or will I need to purchase a new license because the year is elapsed?
Here's another scenario. I upgrade to Windows 10 from 7 and after trying Windows 10 for while, I decide to uninstall 10 and go back to 7... because I'm crazy like that.... Will I be able to use my original Key for Windows 7 or is the upgrade a one way road:
where the 7 key turns into a Windows 10 key and can no longer be used to activate Windows 7?
Thanks for the feedback!

Hi Momashi
Here's another scenario. I upgrade to Windows 10 from 7 and after trying Windows 10 for while, I decide to uninstall 10 and go back to 7...
because I'm crazy like that.... Will I be able to use my original Key for Windows 7 or is the upgrade a one way road: where the 7 key turns into a Windows 10 key and can no longer be used to activate Windows 7?
If you Upgrade to Windows 10 and do not like it, for whatever reason.
Before you upgrade to Windows 10.
Create an image of windows 7 to an external HD and a recovery CD, using windows 7 Backup and Restore.
You can re-install windows 7 in the SAME SYSTEM using the recovery CD without using a key.
Hope it helps
Where did you get your outlandish information about a Windows 7 key turning into a Windows 10 key? Nothing in the past has ever happened like this before, so what makes you think it will happen with Windows 10?
My Windows ME did not turn into a Windows XP key!
My Windows XP key did not turn into a Windows Vista key!
My Windows Vista key did not turn into a Windows 7 key!
And so on!

If that's the scenario, why we are using same identifier for different scripts.
e.g:

S99FJSVwarnWhy not? So they all run after most of the rest of the system is up.
Here '99' is the identifier utilized by various startup scripts.Yup. I do that as well.
Is there any other reason by having this identifier to identify the scripts?Yes, it makes sure it runs after the ones with 98 (and 97, and 96, ...)

Upgrading from 6.0.2 to 6.5 or 6.7

I have a process running on Windows XP using version 6.0.2. It uses various methods of communication including dial up, serial radios, and ethernet (internet) for data transfer. This data is logged in the citadel 5 database which we currently access using hypertrends within Lookout, the MAX interface, and queries using Microsoft Excel.
I am looking to upgrade the version as the computer is running XP and I need to at get to at least Windows 7. As well, I am going to need to set up a web server to allow for remote viewing of screens.
While investigating, I came across a posting regarding this very upgrade. The user had told me that it failed completly and I would have to rebuild the entire process file. I had initially thought that this would be it for Lookout and time to move on to another platform. I am running a copy of 6.5 on my laptop which is a Windows 7 professional 64 bit version machine. I use this for troubleshooting and testing.
I have several HMI panels using Window XP and Lookout 6.0 for local use. I copied the process file from one of these machines on to my laptop and opened the process file with Lookout 6.5 and expected some sort of fatal error. It opened, and as this particular process is able to connect to the stations PLC using ethernet, I was able to have full access to the data stream.
Has anyone gone through this type of upgrade as I have outlined? Any feedback is greatly appreciated. I would like to stay with the Lookout program as I find it( after a huge learning curve- Thanks Bob) easier to make changes to and modify. The thought of going to something else gives me the willies.
About the only hardware issue I can think of in regards to upgrading from XP to WIndows 7, is the "octopus" serial cable. It is a special card that allows for 8 seperate DB9 serial ports. If it isn't supported in a Windows 7 machine, I can always go to a USB hub and multiple USB to serial converters.
I am confused as to why the the user I talked to had told me the process would have to be rebuilt. Any other upgrade stories out there with these versions? I know there are issues with old pre-6.0 versions, but I am interested in 6.0.

I have had no major issues (from Lookout 5.1, 6.0.2, 6.1 and 6.2) going to 6.7.1
It sounds like you have the idea, test it on another machine running Windows 7/8.
Check with the hardware manufacturer for driver updates. We have many PCI, PCIe, USB and Ethernet serial devices running in places.
Good luck.

Why upgrade from Compliance Calibrator to GRC?

Hello Experts- My company has yet to implement GRC 5.3. We already utilize SAP Compliance Calibrator by Virsa Systems 4.0, which works fine, so what would be the benefit of upgrading to GRC? Is it really necessary? Is it just to stay current? Also, is it true that GRC will be moving from Java back to an ABAP stack? If so, when is the new ABAP version of GRC set to be available?
Thanks for your advice and opinions.

Regarding the upgrade from 4.0 to 5.3 I concur with Alpesh and Varun.
Regarding the upgrade to 10.0, current plans are for Ramp-up to be available in December 2010 with general release scheduled for mid 2011.
According to the latest material from SAP, they are only supporting a migration path as follows:
4.0 -->5.3 --> 10.0
There is no supported upgrade path from 4.0 directly to 10.0.
It should be noted that it is a significant change in architecture and therefore not a simple migration path. SAP are recommending an upgrade to 5.3 followed by a migration to 10.0 for the technical side of things.
5.3 does still have some significant advantages over 4.0 and therefore is still an option. owever, if you wish to register your interest, SAP are seeking ramp up customers so I would suggest you contact your Consultants or account management within SAP to discuss the options if you are considering it.
