Update past 10.6?

I'm trying to update my Mac Book Pro 2009 and it will not go past update 10.6 for some reason any ideas?

software update will go as high as 10.6.8.  Anything after that requires the purchase of one of the newer versions of OS X from the app store.

  • 1st gen iPod Touch will not update past 1.1.5

    I am sure this question has been asked before and probably answered but I have tried just about everything I can think of and I cannot get an update past 1.1.5. I have restored my unit and downloaded firmware files for 2.2 and 3.1 but both give me an error trying to update. I know I have to purchase the update but I cannot find a way to do it through iTunes. It says my device is fully updated.

    You can purchase the update here:

  • G3 imac can't update past 10.4.6 "errors found during update"

    I'm issues with a slot-loading g3 imac updating past 10.4.6 (the version i installed from the dvd). the boot rom number is 4.9.f1. I tried to format after the first incident to no avail. It runs pretty good as is but I need to get Ilife 08 on it(which claims to need 10.4.10 i believe). The first go at this I ran software update, it updated everything but the 10.4.11 combined, which rendered my Itunes unusable because it needs 10.4.9 or later. I even went as far as just downloading the 10.4.7 combined update with the same outcome. Instalation on the os x update runs normal and the just stops, saying there were errors found try updating again.
    Please help!!!
    Thanks in advance,
    Dan

    A G3 won't see more than 128 GB of a drive. You can put in a larger drive but the computer won't see anything beyond the first 128GB, not even if you partition. I know with G4s you can put in ATA PCI cards which will allow you to use bigger drives, and there's a utility called [SpeedTools|http://www.speedtools2.com> which is a software solution (read carefully before using as there are drawbacks vs. hardware).
    A hard drive is one place where I am hesitant about buying used, especially if it is one that is the same vintage as your computer with who knows how many hours on it. I am saying this because I don't think if you buy new that you will find anything less than 7200, 8MB, 160 GB, etc. I also see people asking $30 for used 120GB drives, and you can get a new 160GB drive for not much more if you hunt around and fill out your rebate coupons.
    You can get a bigger drive, use the first 128 GB with this computer, then when you get a new computer move the drive into it and use the whole thing (assuming you get a computer that supports big drives as just about any computer made in the past 4 years will do).
    Personally I like Seagate drives, but you'll get all kinds of responses on this.
    Since this is moving more into the hardware realm you might consider reposting the issue in the imac and/or G3 forum.
    Oh, one more thing, I wouldn't necessarily kiss the drive goodbye. If you have given up on directory repair why not try reformatting it with the erase option (to do a scan for bad blocks) and see if it still has some life left in it? I am still running two 120GB drives in this computer, at least one of which is 5 years old.

  • Macbook won't update past 10.5.5

    I have a Mac OS X Version 10.5.8, (Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, Memory: 2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM) I cannot get it to update past 10.5.5. When I go to update it, it says "Software Update doesn’t have any new software for your computer at this time." However, my itunes it on 10.6.3 which my computer says is the current version?? But itunes is on 11.3.... Please help! I want to not only update my computer but update my iTunes as well. My iphone will not sync with my Macbook or iTunes.

    I think they told us everything except the Mac model:
    (Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, Memory: 2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM)
    That's sufficient to know they can upgrade to 10.7.5.  
    It could be MacBook, MacBook Air, or MacBook Pro.
    Also depending on the age it may or may not be able to upgrade to 10.8 or later.
    Regardless, this tip should help determine if to go to 10.6.8, 10.7.5, or 10.8 or later:
    Upgrading to 10.7 and above, don't forget Rosetta!

  • My iPod 3rd gen won't update past 4.2.1

    As stated, my 3rd gen iPod won't update past 4.2.1, is this the cap for iOS on 3rd gen, or can it go higher?

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
    Identifying iPod models
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

  • Will not update past VS910ZV7

    My Revo will not update past sw version VS910ZV7.  Checking for software updates manually does nothing.  It appears the latest version out is VS910ZV9.  How can I get my phone to update??

        Magicshews,
    Jeepers! Software updates are created to make sure yoru device has the best user experience, so lets get this fixed!  I would recommend powering off the phone>removing the battery from the device for 2 min> place the battery back in the device>power on the device. The device will power back on with original software and will prompt you once again to install the system update. Hope this helps!
    Thanks,

  • IPod Touch Won't Update Past iOS 4.2.1

    I have a 16gb, 3rd generation iPod Touch (purchased September, 2009) that will not update past iOS 4.2.1.  I know that the 16gb 3rd gen model didn't get all of the iOS 4 features that the rest of the 3rd gen models did, but I can't find anything on the Apple page about 4.3 that would indicate that some subset of the 3rd gen iTouches would be unable to get the update.  I'm running Windows 7 64-bit and iTunes version 10.2.2.12.  Any ideas what's going on?

    It just says that it has the most up-to-date software.  From what I can tell, when they originally released the 3rd generation iPod Touch, the 16 gb one still used the 2nd generation hardware.  At the time, it was still called 3rd generation.  As recently as last summer when iOS 4 was released, it was still refered to as 3rd generation (the iOS 4 release information had asterisks on the 3rd gen iPod Touch to say that various features like multitasking wouldn't work with the 16 gb model).  Now Apple seems to have retroactively decided to just call it 2nd generation.  I'm not very happy since it was sold to me as 3rd generation...

    My IPad 1 will not update past iOS 5.1.1, however many apps require iOS 6.0 or later what can I do?
    Also, since updating to 5.1.1 Safari frequently crashes.  Help!!!!!!

    5.1.1. is the end of the line for the original iPad. You can't go beyond that. As for the safari crashes, is it tied to specific websites? Have you tried clearing the cache and history?

  • Will ipad 2 update past ios7?

    I want to upgrade to the ipad 2 from my ipad 1st generation. My question is will the ipad 2 continue to update past iOS 7 I don't want to buy it then in 2 years it won't update and be super obsolete. Thanks

    There has been no announcement about any update after iOS 7 so no one will know what the compatibility will be.
    The iPad 2 is the oldest compatible device with iOS 7, and usually every year one device gets dropped compatibility.
