Need Pages or Word for MacBook Pro w/ SL OS 10.6.x

I am a new Mac user and purchased a used macbook for my daughter. It has SL 10.6.x. I want to load Pages but the OS is too old for the version that is available to buy. How can I upgrade the OS? Or is there an older version of Pages (or Word) I can use?

No, they're not, and not all Intel Macs can be upgraded.
Mac OS X 10.7 requires a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and at least 2GB of RAM. It's available by phoning the online Apple Store and ordering a download code for it.
Mac OS X 10.8 is available from the Mac App Store, which will check the system for compatibility and not allow it to be purchased on an incompatible configuration.

  • Do I need internet security software for macbook pro

    When I purchase my new MacBook Pro from Bestbuy, it came with free internet security software that is Mac compatible.  Do I need it?

    I would not download and install any additional software if it was me...with a firewall in place, and good computing practices, the Mac OS X system does a great job of self-protection.  The info in Thomas's site is also a big help.
    Also, keep in mind that the worst of the worst are Norton and McAfee for Mac OS X systems, and MacKeeper is generally considered to be malware in itself...almost impossible to remove once installed because of the way it hides files that keep popping up on you.

  • Do i need additional virus protection for macbook pro

    I have a MacBook Pro - GH2 Intel with 4 GB of memory.  Upon login I have a blank screen except for 2 silhouettes. One silhouette is my name, the other silhouette is "guest user"  When I put in my password which is necessary each time, I then get a screen "Do you want the application "open exec" to accept incoming network connections?" (I press "allow") and next screen is "Do you want the application "openinfo" to accept incoing network connections? (I press "allow"). Next screen is SKYPE and each time I need to manually go in and "quit" Skype.
    Prior to this happening, I was getting the whirly bird all of the time and everything extremely slow.  I have an appointment at genius bar in 5 days but am concerned about a virus,etc.
    How can I protect myself so I can do banking, etc., prior to genius bar appointment? Should I purchase one of Apples anit virus programs from the app store?
    Thank you!!!!

    Could be malware/adware.

  • Need Canon MP600 Driver for Macbook Pro Retina running OS10.9.1 Mavericks, Any Suggestions?

    The Canon website says the MP600 printer is not supported after OS10.7 but they do not offer any advice on alternatives.  I really need the basic print functions to print things such as web pages and documents and being able to use the scanner too would be nice. Other features I can live without. The printer is connected directly to the Macbook using USB.  Any suggestions on using drivers already loaded as standard on my Mac or generics that I can find online would be appreciated.

  • I need help to decide which macbook pro is best for photo editing, editing movies and doing all the rest too like excel, word etc. 13"

    I need help to decide which macbook pro is best for photo editing, editing movies and doing all the rest too like  microsoft office products ...excel, word etc.  I am new to the apple world and have liked the idea of the MAC Book Pro 13" but really dont know if this is good enough or if the computer will soon crash?
    13-inch: 2.6GHz
    with Retina display
    Specifications
    2.6GHz dual-core Intel Core i5
    Turbo Boost up to 3.1GHz
    8GB 1600MHz memory
    512GB PCIe-based flash storage1
    Intel Iris Graphics
    Built-in battery (9 hours)2

    That's a fine machine and, with 8GB of RAM and 512GB flash storage should serve you well for light video/photo editing as well as for 'normal' usage. And it should last you for years to come.
    Good luck in making your decision!!

  • I bought the wrong version as I need it for macbook pro but somehow bought windows...help

    I guess I will have to wait until normal office hours.  I have no idea why it bought the window version as I did not realize that is what was selected.  I hope I can get it exchanged for the photoshop elements 13 for macbook pro retina display.     Anyone know if this is an easy switch and one they will do?

    When buying HD versions of shows, only the HD copy will automatically download now (probably due to requests from people who don't need/want the SD version and complained about it being forced on them). The SD copy can be downloaded from your purchases area in iTunes, though. On the main iTunes Store page, go to Purchases under the Quick Links and then select TV shows. Click the "Not On This Computer" button. Uncheck the "Download HD when available" box and you should then see the SD copies of the shows and be able to download them.
    Regards.

  • HT201364 is there pages for macbook pro version 10.7.5 ?

    is there pages for macbook pro version 10.7.5 ?

    You need to either phone AppleCare and order replacement disks or buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store; the retail DVDs don't contain iLife. Once you've gotten a disk, insert it, restart the computer with the C key held down, use the Disk Utility to erase the internal drive, install a fresh OS, and include the disk with it.

  • What cables do I need to connect my 2013 macbook pro to my HD tv? I know I need mini display to HDMI, but male? female HDMI??? and also, do I need a separate cable for sound?

    what cables do I need to connect my 2013 macbook pro to my HD tv? I know I need mini display to HDMI, but male? female HDMI??? and also, do I need a separate cable for sound?

    Actually you need a Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter. It will carry both audio and video.
    This one will work: Mini DisplayPort | Thunderbolt® to HDMI® Adapter w/ Audio Support

  • What replacement Airport Extreme Card do I need for Macbook Pro 8.2?

    It looks like my Airport Extreme Card has failed, although the Blue Tooth  is fine. I'm assuming that I need to buy a replacement but am struggling to find what I need. I have a Macbook Pro 15" early 2011 i7 2.2ghz so just need to know what cards are compatable.
    It's been a slow failiure, over a couple of months but now it is not even recognised in the System profiler. I am happy to open the case and install a new card, I just need t know what will work. Is there a better card than the original out there, or even an upgrade? I've upgraded the Ram and had to change the HHD already, so as a machine it's starting to resemble the Philosopher's Axe...
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi Ralph,
    Thanks for the speedy response!
    I"ve had the case open when I changed the HHD and Ram, and can seen where the card slots in. It's held by a supporting arm which lifts up when disconected from the Logic Board. it's weird looking inside, as you can see there are many of the same componants I've seen in other laptops. It is a tidier build though. I'm confident that if I detach the 3 antener conectors and remove the retainer screws a new card will fit back in.
    The Genius Bars here in London are highly over subscribed, and I don't think I have the time or budget for that.
    I'll keep plugging away, and see what happens. I'm almost getting used to being tethered to the Ethernet cable. I've only tripped over it 20 times a day!
    Take it easy.

  • Need to download drivers for canon MP 280 for macbook pro

    I need to download drivers for canon MP 280 for macbook pro how do i go ...

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    As you can see, that printer is compatible > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3669
    To get the drivers for that printer, you just have to add the printer to OS X, following these steps > http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11145 OS X will download automatically the driver for your printer after adding it to the printer list. Or you can download the Canon drivers from the Apple website > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL899
    You don't need to get drivers from the Canon website. The Apple drivers are sufficient to make the printer work, although you may find software in the Canon website that you may want
