Hi gmscmills,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you you are trying to install your HP Deskjet 2540 to your MacBookPro running the 10.5.8 Operating system, you are right in saying that you need to have atleast 10.6 to install the software and drivers for your DJ 2540.
Take a look here: What if I Don't See My Operating System?
I would also suggest contacting Apple or checking out their support options for the Operating systems to see what is available for you:
Mac OS X Support
I hope this helps!
Thanks,
HevnLgh

    Try the Firefox SafeMode. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    # You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    # Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    You should be able to uninstall that AOL toolbar extension while running in the Firefox SafeMode.

  • Wanted to use Icloud to back up pictures and Itunes  - it is running os 10.6.4.  I have an original IPAD, nothing syncs without connecting.  Do I need to purchase operating system updates?  Wasn't sure what 10.6 Leopard is?

    Snow Leopard, Mac OS X 10.6, is not iCloud compatible.  You need to upgrade to Lion, Mac OS X 10.7, via a download from the app store...$29 (US), provided you had at least 10.6.6.  You can upgrade to 10.6.8 for free as part of the software updated function, then go to the app store and purchase the Lion download.
    When you do that, before installing Lion, make a copy of the Lion Installer from the Applications folder where it downloads to some other location, such as your Documents folder, so you have a backup copy.
    For Lion you must have at least an Intel Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7, or Xenon processor, 2 GB memory though 4 GB is better and 7 GB free space on the hard drive.
    As part of 10.7.2 you end up with the iCloud connection.

  • 2008 Macbook Pro - need to update operating system!

    Hello Apple friends! I have a late 2008 Macbook Pro which is operating on OS X Version 10.5.8. I would like to update my computer to the most current possible operating system, and I need to know the steps I should take and software I'll need to get to do so!
    Any help will be much appreciated.

    Hello,
    You first need to update to Snow Leopard. You can order the disk here:
    Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.)
    Depending on your system's configuration you can subsequently update your OS X  further:

    You will need to upgrade to Snow Leopard first - if your Mac can run it:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $30.  You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number.
    If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.

    how can i format my macbook 10.5.8 to snow leopord i am doing first time  format how its process and do i need to formet or upgrade and i have a snow leopard DVD???

    First, I'd advise you to make a backup. Time Machine is fine, but I recommend making a bootable backup with Carbon Copy Cloner if possible.
    Then, insert the Snow Leopard DVD (it's a retail version, right? Not a grey disk meant for another machine?) and run the installer on the disk. Should be automatic from that point in. You don't need to reformat your drive.

    I  have a iphone 3gs that needs to be backed up and I have a new computer

    You can backup only your settings, messages, recent calls, apps and Camera Roll in your new iTunes.
    Your photo albums and music has to be on your computer to sync them back to your iPhone.

  • I want to install CyberLink PowerDirector on my Macbook Pro but I need Windows software operating system to be install ? I need help!

    I  downloaded PowwerDirector 12 trial and when I try to open it,  I got a message that "CyberLink PowerDirector was not compatible to Mac". After some inquiries, I found that I need Winows software operating system to be install in Mac! Can sombody help me?

    For Windows on a Mac you'd have to own a Windows retail system installer with keycode, and use BootCamp utility in the Mac OS X to set up a partition on the computer hard disk drive (issues? if you have Apple Fusion Drive where a SSD + HDD are automatically co-joined) and then install the Windows system there.
    Or get & use Parallels, or VMFusion software and use it along with Windows to run applications written for a Windows OS. And would need to have a large internal hard disk drive with plenty of room since the space for Windows takes away space for Mac OS X and its applications to run; and also you'd need plenty of chip RAM installed to run this other System plus software... and for Windows, its own anti-virual software not needed at all in a Mac.
    Not sure about this, http://www.wondershare.com/video-editor/mac/ suggests in their advert to be something to use if you can't use the cyberlink product.
    Or don't want to buy the upscale or pro Apple image software that does a fine job at a cost. I'd try & avoid running Windows in a Mac even though it can run three or more different OS, including linux/unix builds.
    Never heard of either one: wondershare or cyberlink powerdirector.
    (the latter looked 'more pro' for windows)
    {But check for any hint of some odd effects before you get and install any software from a marginal or unknown source, since adware can follow, and really odd things can start to happen then, like search engine redirects.}
    Anyway, helpful information about your computer and its current configuration, OS X version, RAM installed, hard disk drive specs (free vs used capacity) are numbers that can make a difference going into a new thing. Even Mavericks alone is not an upgrade, often that requires a bunch of extra chip RAM capacity.
    Not sure if this helps, another may offer more direct ideas...
    Good luck & happy computing!

    MacBook Pro is a notebook.  It is not a laptop
    You can get replacement System Discs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and serial number of your Mac available.
    If you're not in the US, you may need to go through the regional Apple Store that serves your location to find the contact number. Here's a list of links to all of those -

    thanks for that, but having tried the various options, still not managed to organize a refund, or anything for that matter, been on hold now for 25 minutes, first time was for 17 minutes, spoke to someone who was putting me thorough, to then have automated message saying issue could not be dealt with and it then hung up! been on to live chat and this was posted: -
    Chat
    24 hours a day, 7 days a week
    Chat is currently closed
    Which would be funny if i havent already spent 3 1/2 hours trying to sort this. I am really not enjoying my adobe experience, never known such a difficult company to speak to a 'live' person. Now on hold for 29 minutes and need to go out so nothing to be done now until tomorrow. If there is a real person from Adobe reading this, i would appreciate a call/direct email to get this resolved. now 31 minutes and I have to hang up as need to go!!! aarrgghhh!!!
