Small upgrade to mac osx 10.5.8

At a recent visit to the Genius Bar, I was given a phone number to call to purchase an small upgrade to my mac osx 10.5.8.  Now I've lost the phone number. Any help?

Was able to leave a message for a callback and they called right away!  Snow Leopard is on it's way to me right now - 10.6.8 for $19.99.  I am so happy!  I will now be able to use this with my new ipad and ipod.
I also found out I can upgrade my old memory for just about $30 at the genius bar. 
Thank you for the help!

    Your Mac is definitely one of the supported models? http://www.apple.com/uk/osx/specs/
    If so, what happens when you try to download? Is it a case of nothing happens? If so, take a look at the suggestions under 'Stalled Download' in this link:
    http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2013/10/mavericks-issues-and-fixes/#slideid-23477 1
    Also, some usrs have found that logging out of the Mac App Store and then back in again and starting over has kick-started the download. It seems that the 5+gb download can take a long time to give any feedback as to what's happening.

  • HT3606 please help me to upgrade my mac osx 10.5.8 to mountain lion

    please help me to upgrade my mac osx 10.5.8 to mountain lion. i am not able to do it.becoz i am not having app store.

    Before you buy anything, first make sure your Mac is compatible.
    Minimum specs for Snow Leopard.  Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard -                 Read the Technical Specifications
    Note.  You can no longer buy Snow Leopard from an Apple retail store, only as follows. 
    If you are in North America ... Last I read, you must call them (1-800-MY-APPLE). It is $29 plus tax for family pack and $19 plus tax for the individual use version.
    In Europe or otherwise … call your National Apple Helpline … http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    Once you have bought and upgraded you will need to apply the Combo updater for Snow Leopard.          Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
    For Mountain Lion the minimum specs are … technical specifications.
    But if your computer meets those specs you can upgrade to Mountain Lion without any intermediate steps.

  • Photoshop CS4 will not open after system upgrade to Mac OSX Yosemite

    I recently upgraded to Mac OSX Yosemite and unfortunately, my Photoshop CS4 will not open. The message says it requires Java SE6. I now have Java 7 update 71. I would appreciate suggestions from anyone who can help to resolve this problem. Thank you.

    Thank you very much, Chris Cox. I followed the link in the error message to Apple's support page, downloaded and installed the Java for Mac OSX.
    I can now open my PS CS4 again. What a relief!
    Many thanks for your fast response and accurate advice.
    Cheers!

    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)

    Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard Installation and Setup Guide
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/leopard_install-setup.pdf
    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
    The DVD should look like this
    Caution - Leopard does not support classic mode. So, if you currently open OS 9 apps in classic mode, you won't be able to do this if you upgrade to Leopard.

  • Can I upgrade a Mac OSX 10.6.8 to Mountain Lion?

    I want to know if It is possible to upgrade my Mac OSX 10.6.8 to mountain Lion..

    I'd suggest you hold off for at least version 10.8.2 to come out. The first two, 10.8.0 and 10.8.1, have proven problematic in terms of battery performance for a significant number of users (see the corresponding thread reaching Biblical proportions in this forum).

  • Can I upgrade from mac OSX 10.6.8 to 10.8?

    Can I upgrade from mac OSX 10.6.8 to 10.8?

    Same list as stedman1, but uses model numbers which is slightly more accurate.
    Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion.
    To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) model number 7,1 or higher
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) model number 2,1 or higher
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    Xserve (Early 2009) model number 3,1 or higher
    Your Mac needs:
    OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
    2 GB or more of memory (More is better)
    8 GB or more of available space
    Check to make sure your applications are compatible.         Application Compatibility
    If you have applications that you want to use that aren’t compatible, you can retain Snow Leopard and create a new partition to install Mountain Lion on or you can run Snow Leopard  server in a virtual mode.
    If your computer isn't compatible, you might be able to upgrade to Lion.        Computer Compatibility - Lion
    If you can/do upgrade, I recommend you make a copy of the installer and move it out of your Applications folder. The installer self-destructs. The copy will keep you from having to download the installer again.

  • Is it possible to upgrade the Mac osx 10.5.11 dual 2.7 Speaking to the issues Such as Mac OS X 10.6

    Is it possible to upgrade the Mac osx 10.5.11
    dual 2.7
    Speaking to the issues
    Such as Mac OS X 10.6

    There isn't a OSX 10.5.11.  It looks like you are asking about how to upgrade from OSX 10.4.11 (as suggested in your profile) to 10.6 (or was this another typographical error and you meant 10.5?) on something with a dual 2.7 processor.  If you are talking about a G5 or any G series Mac then you cannot upgrade further than OSX 10.5 Leopard (the forum in which you posted this question).  Only Intel Macs can run 10.6 and greater.
    It would help to know exactly which computer you are using, which exact operating system version it is using, and which one to which you wish to upgrade.

  • Actually, I upgraded to mac Osx I had iphoto,imovie, the whole work; However. After downloading Osx 10.5.8 it all went away and states that it's not compatible anymore.

    Actually, I upgraded to mac Osx I had iphoto,imovie, the whole work; However. After downloading Osx 10.5.8 Only I photo would word, imovie would not work, my camera was not recognized. itunes was ok, After my system start having a problem I tried to re-download Mac Osx again, then I lost Imovie,iphoto, and itunes, recently I was able to get itunes back by downloading quicktime 7.7, in which i discovered through the support communities. Now I would like to
    get imove, i photo if at all possible. I've read that by installing a hex something, that it works fine. But it seems to be complicated to install. Can I get some advise on this issue foe  iBook G4 10.5.8? Let me know Apples are expensive. maybe it's time for a windows system. I've also heard that the refurbished mac are a piece of trash from some reviews.

    You can't upgrade from Mac OS X 10.4 to Mac OS X 10.5 via a download. You would have to buy the DVD and upgrade that way.
    Any applications that were using Classic emulation (OS 9 applications) in Mac OS X 10.4 would be lost in an upgrade to Mac OS X 10.5.
    I've also heard that the refurbished mac are a piece of trash from some reviews.
    That depends on who does the refurbishing. If you buy a refurbished Mac directly from Apple, it will be as good as a new Mac and will even have the one-year warranty that comes with a new Mac. If you buy a "refurbished" Mac from an eBay seller, all bets are off.

  • I just upgraded to Mac OSX Lion and can't attach documents to my hotmail.  Can anyone help?

    I just upgraded to Mac OSX Lion and can't attach documents to my hotmail.  Can anyone help?

    Hi there,
    Over the last few days, this issue has been driving me up the wall too!
    I downloaded Lion OS a few months ago, but it was only until a few days ago did i attempt to logon to Hotmail to check my account & send an email with an attachment.
    Normally i use the MAC Mail app, which is synchronised to my hotmail account.
    Anyway, I'm not sure whether the Lion OS is the root cause of the issue, however after much digging around on various forums - the issue for me was resolved by downloading the latest version of Microsoft Silverlight 5 (www.microsoft.com/silverlight). Its a free download....

  • How can upgrade my Mac OSX 10.5.8 to the Mac ion 10.7?

    I purchased a new iPod nano and when I tried to plug it in, it tells me to upgrade the itunes software. I did that, now it is telling me to upgrade my Mac OSX software to 10.7. Uggghhh. How tdo i accomplish that?

    You need to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD and then run Software Update. No further OS upgrades are needed.

    Can I upgrade my Mac OSX v. 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard (10.6)?

    Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..."  Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).
    If it's an Intel iMac then yes.
    Compare details of your computer with:

  • Is it worthwhile to upgrade to Mac OSX?

    Dear all,
    Right now, I'm using iMac DV400 slot loading 512RAM 10GB, mac 9.2.2.My intention for using this iMac is just surfing the internet using adsl modem. Will there a speed increase or slow down when upgrade to mac osx in term of surfing the internet. I'm understand that mac osx using a lot of memory when running the application. If I decide to upgrade to mac osx, should I just stick to 10.1, 10.2 or 10.3?

    hw1609:
    Go for it. I loved OS 9 but I haltingly made the change to OS X and love it. I would recommend that if you decide to make the move you go directly to Panther instead of doing it in increments. You can buy it reasonably at eBay or OWC. Be sure you get the Full Retail Version.
    Post back with further questions.
    Good luck.
