Need to download Snow Leopard, Need to download Snow Leopard
Where can I find Snow Leopard as an online download. Need it as I have previous OS, and cannot upgrade to Mountain Lion without first upgrading to Snow Leopard??
I called the italian support centre. Snow Leopard DVD costs € 15.90 (including the delivery to Italy).
They couldn't process the order because of a technical issue from their part, so they should sort it out tomorrow.
Concerning the maltese support centre, I went personnally to the only Apple Store in Malta yesterday and they told me I have to take my computer there and they would install the upgrade themselves for € 53.00, without giving me a disc!!!!!!!
Since I have 2 computers which need to be upgraded, the final cost would be € 106.00 !!!!
And the cherry on the cake is that if you need to format or similar operations, you need to take the computer again and pay a second time!!!!!
Since I realized it's a rip off, I joined this forum to solve my problem
Thanks to all!!!

I gave my 2010 iMac to my father but it has a nonfunctioning disc drive (cannot read any type of disc). It's operating on OS X 10.5 Leopard. We need to upgrade him to at least OS X 10.7 Lion, but judging by what I've read so far, we cannot do that without first installing OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. I cannot find a way to download OS X 10.6, and having the disc shipped is not an ideal option. Does anyone know of a way I can download a legit copy? Another option — though I'm not sure it'll work — is to order the OS X 10.6 disc, transfer the files from the disc to a USB key on my newer Macbook Pro, then bring it over to my dad and install it on his iMac from the USB key. Does anyone have experience with this who knows if it will work or not? Thank you!
1. No.

I am running Leopard OS X 10.5.8. I want to upgrade to Lion. Do I need to download Snoe Leopard first?
ThanksI cannot make that determination for you. Snow Leopard is not available as a download. You have to purchase it at an Apple Store or order it online. Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later is required to purchase and download Lion from the App Store. Total cost would be $59.00 exclusive of tax and shipping (if any.)
Sometime this month Apple plans to make available a USB flash drive containing the full standalone Lion installe for $69.00. If you did not want Snow Leopard then you may want to wait for this to be available. -

I have paid and downloaded LION and want to update my IMAC, can i just run install and it keep photos settings etc from Snow Leopard or is a full reinstall with wiped hard drive, anyone have any experience of this and do i need to run a backup beforehand?
Always backup your important data before upgrading to a new Mac OS X.
Lion doesn't erase the drive but better to be safe than sorry.
And run Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities). Verify and if necessary repair the startup disk before upgrading.
Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks
Before upgrading read here > Lion upgrade questions and answers: Apple Support Communities
And here > What applications are not compatible with Mac OS X 10.7 "Lion"? What upgrade or substitute options are available for common incompatible applications? @ EveryMac.com -
i have a Mac i5 and need to download the application 'Numbers' but everytime I try to do so, it says can't do as the ver 2.2 for the app needs new software 'Snow Leopard'. I don't want to upgrade but dont know what to do??
If your profile is correct you're already on the final version of Snow Leopard (10.6.8). Sure it wasn't Lion it was asking for?
If that's the only version available on the app store, you'll need to source a copy of the iWork '09 DVD - not cheap now - only available via Amazon or eBay etc. -
I have a Mac OSX Version 10.5.8 When I put in my disc to upgrade to snow leopard version 10.6.3 it tells me I need atleast 1gb of ram memory to download. what can I do
Your iMac can take a total of 2 GBs of RAM Max.
Maximum Memory
2.0 GB
Memory Slots
2 - 200-pin PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMM
You will be able to install OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and it will run, but you may not be happy with the performance overall.
OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and later OS X versions use more and more CPU, GPU and RAM resources.
OS X 10.6, by itself, will use between 2-4 GBs of RAM to run quickly, smoothly and efficiently.
Start running additonal applications and your iMac is going to struggle.
Just fair warning if you notice that your iMac is running slower after installing OS X 10.6.
Good Luck! -
Do i need to download snow leopard to Buy a program from the apps store?
There is a image editing program that I am trying to purchase, but in order to, I have to purchase it now from the Mac Apps Store. It seems I don't have the Apps store And I heard that I needed Snow leopard (10.6.6?) in order to have access to the Apps Store. I currently have 10.5.8..So is this the problem? Would I need to buy Snow leopard? And when I do, Does it just download onto my computer or do I actually have to send out for a disc ? Any feedback would be appreciated.. THANKS!!
Would I need to buy Snow leopard?
You need it to get the Mac App Store. If you haven't already, check the manufacturer's website or the online Apple Store from the link above for that program.
And when I do, Does it just download onto my computer or do I actually have to send out for a disc ?
You need to get it on DVD.

I am trying to upgrade to Snow Leopard but I cannot figure out how to do it online. Do I actually need to purchase the disc and install it that way? Is there no way to download the update?

I just downloaded Snow Leopard to my Mac Book, now my ICalendar says I cant use this version of iCal with this version of Mac OS X, i currently have ICal 3.0.8.....what do i need to do?
Your profile shows you are running Snow Leopard. Put the Safari version you now have into the Trash. You need to reinstall Snow Leopard.
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.

HT4759 I need Snow Leopard download
I currently have Mac OX X Version 10.5.8 Mac Book 4 and need to upgrade to Lion software but need snow leopard first apparently. I am unable to find any download for it. I have read that Apple was offering a free download for snow Leopard so we then could purchase and download Lion. Does anyone know how I can download snow Leopard? Thanks in advance.
I think the general route now is to find a copy for sale on ebay. But be prepared to pay handsomely for it.
