My powerbook wont update over a 4.7 update I know how but it wont update

my powerbook G4 wont update i know how but it wont my version is 10.4.11

You are currently at the last version 10.4.11 of Tiger. There are no more UPDATES (free). To go to a higher OS, like OS 10.5, is an UPGRADE, which you must buy.
Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard installation system requirements
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24950
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

  • G4 powerbook wont boot up after safari update

    Hi,
    my G4 powerbook wont boot up after a safari update lastnight. Everything was fine untill this morning when i booted it up and it gets stuck on the grey screen with a white apple.
    Any ideas would be much appreciated.

    See my reply to your other post in this forum.

  • Airport, WPA2 and Titanium PowerBook wont connect

    I have a friend who visits my place occasionally with a Titanium PowerBook. I have an airport network running WPA2 encryption, but the Titanium PowerBook wont connect to my network.
    If I downgrade my network to WPA it will connect fine. This is despite the fact that I have set the airport to allow connections with either WPA or WPA2.
    Does anybody have any suggestions on what I should do?
    Thanks
    Charlie

    But you need to make sure your friend has the latest AirPort 4.2 update on the Titanium to get WPA support."
    I replied to the wrong person, but...
    The statement above is not true... WPA Support is available in AirPort 3.2/3.3 and later (depending on whether you have an Extreme or non-Extreme card respectively according to a quick Internet search). WPA2 Support requires AirPort 4.2. If you set the base station to support both WPA and WPA2 then any wireless client that supports WPA or WPA2 should be able to access the network. Your mileage may vary.

  • How long does the newest update take? My Mac has been installing for over an hour. Don't know what to do?

    Installing the newest update for mavericks. Has been installing for over an hour. Don't know what to do. How long should it take?

    I went to Apple Chat and they lead me through a power down and start up with Recovery Disc Utility (Hold down  Apple and R keys when powering up).
    Then was instructed to run Disk Recovery and it showed HD was error free. Then a reboot started up fine to desktop and showed update to 10.9.2 had been installed. I am guessing the internet connection my have been interrupted during the install.
    Apple Chat folks are awesome and a short wait too.

  • I updated to Yosemite and now I can't open my YNAB finance app. There is a question mark in the Dock where the App should be and when I hover over the question mark it does say YNAB but I can't open it.

    I updated to Yosemite and now I can't open my YNAB finance app. There is a question mark in the Dock where the App should be and when I hover over the question mark it does say YNAB but I can't open it. When I double click on the question mark nothing happens. Has the link to YNAB been broken with the update? Has this happened to anyone else?

    Check the Application folder.
    If it is not there, contact YNAB Finance for a OS X Yosemite compatible version of the application.

  • Powerbook wont boot, and im depressed about it....

    Well,
    I tried to update my powerbook with one of apple's security updates and left the comp alone for a wile and when i came back the update window was gone so i figured that it, for some reason, restarted itself so i tried to open safari and the stupid icon just sat there and bounced but never opened so i used force quit and tried it again to another app and the samething happened so i resetrted the comp and got the apple with the spinning gear, it normally takes about 5 mins before i get the login wondow so i waited and ten minutes later listened to see if the HDD was doing anything and it wasn't so i used a force restart and the same thing happend. So i go onto the internet with another comp and look up some possible reasons.....i got into single user and verbose modes and see some possible reasons that this may be happening such as something in verbose mode saying malformed library and an error number in single user "errno=55"
    Any help will be appriciated!

    BladeMaster:
    Here is what I found for error code -55:
    +-55 volOnLinErr drive volume already on-line at MountVol+
    Apart from booting into single user mode, I am not sure what else you have done in attempting to fix your computer's problem. Here is what I suggest:
    Begin with Repair Disk
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report if it says anything but Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need to use a utility like Tech Tool Pro or Disk Warrior
    Please post back and let me know how it went. If it does not work for you, please describe exactly what responses you got.
    Good luck.
    cornelius
    PS: Just looked at your earlier thread and note that you do not have an install disk. I suggest that you get disks appropriate to your OS, or purchase new Tiger disks. In addition, please update us on how the trouble-shooting procedures recommended in that thread worked out for you so that we will have a fuller picture.

  • PowerBook wont turn on unless I turn it upside down!!!

    Ahhhh ok this is annoying!! My powerbook wont work unless I turn it upside down!! When it is right side up..I turn it on and it just comes up with a blank screen. However, if I turn it upside down it works just fine! Once its working ok upside down, I turn it right side up again and it freezes!!!! Any suggestions?? You think something might be loose inside?

    Well, I just purchased Linksys wifi and hooked it up. It's running fine. When I go to my IPhone settings to see is I'm connected to a wifi, it shows that I am not connected. When I hit my wifi to see or to connect, it takes me to the wifi networks and it's showing my secured wifi as being locked and my guess wifi as not locked. How do I sign in to my own wifi network.
