What is the latest OS that I can use on my 2006 MacBook?

I have a 2006 MacBook 5.1
I recently purchased and upgraded my computer with Snow Leopard. I want to know how high I can upgrade on this specific MacBook.
I also used Adobe CS5 and was curious if any higher update would affect that program
Last question, do I have to pay for the additional updates?
I could've sworn that Apple told me that once I upgraded to Snow Leopard I could upgrade straight to the latest OS with no additional cost.
If anyone could help me out I would really appreciate it.

If it’s a MacBook5,1, it’s a 2008 MacBook, not a 2006 one, and can run Yosemite.
If it’s actually a 2006 MacBook, its maximum OS is 10.6.8(for Core Duo models) or 10.7.5(for Core 2 Duo ones.)

HT1338 I have a Mac Pro Dual Core, 3 Ghz, that I purchased in the Spring of 2007. What is the latest OS that i can upgrade to? And is that OS compatible with Logic 10?

I have a Mac Pro Dual Core, 3 Ghz, that I purchased in the Spring of 2007. What is the latest OS that i can upgrade to? And is that OS compatible with Logic 10?

Logic Pro 10 requires OSX 10.8.4, which is not officially supported on your Mac Pro (must be Early 2008).
There are, however, unofficial workarounds to install 10.8 on those older models that you can search for on Google.

HT4972 What is the latest iOS that you can run on an iPhone 3G?

What's the latest Mac OS I can use with my older G4 Mac?

Hi Everyone,
My oldest Mac, a G4 running at 350 gHz, still has OS 9.2 and I'd like to upgrade the OS to the best version the Mac can handle. I tried calling the Apple CAre hotline and a kind AppleCare specialist asked for my old Mac's serial number, and said I could install OS 10.4.
Well, a good friend of mine happened to have Mac OS 10.4.7, but it won't install. It starts, but goes into basic and states it's hanging.
Apparently, 10.4 is too advanced or, did I do something wrong?
Where on the Apple website can I find which OS would work best on my older Mac?
Thanks.

If that computer has never had an OS X newer than OS X 10.1 installed in it,
you probably should check the Firmware (boot ROM) version noted in the
OS 9.2 running system's "System Profiler" to see what the firmware version is.
And then see if the computer needs to have the Firmware Update applied
before attempting to install an OS X version into the computer. It will need to
have a running OS 9.1/9.2 kind of system booting the computer in order to be
able to install a Firmware Update.
Lack of the proper firmware update can compromise the computer's hardware.
• Available Firmware Updates - Mac OS X:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1395
The installation instructions are should be carefully read & understood.
Also, in older iMacs and other early PPC Macs, you have to be sure the
computer's hard disk drive size capacity is correct, if upgraded to a larger
capacity hard drive; some old models need to have a small (8GB) partition
for the OS installation. Later ones don't require this, but may have a limit
on the total capacity of a drive used in certain older computers.
For general specifications on several different Apple hardware (and OS)
products, you could download a fairly good database of information from:
• MacTracker:
http://mactracker.ca
To see about purchasing an OS X 10.4 full install disc (aka retail) you could
check the auction sites or local Mac user groups, craigslist ads, and other
local dives or recycling centers; or try calling the main Apple sales support
number as shown in the Apple web site, 1-800-MY-APPLE and ask to speak
to a product specialist for Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, if the person you talk to
does not appear to know about the older no longer listed Leopard install discs.
Be prepared to purchase when you call; the phone number is not a retail store.
(You may have to pay significantly more than their asking price for questionable
goods through some auction; and some web resellers of discs sometimes sell
the incorrect discs, in an auction sale, for more than the cost direct from Apple.)
Hopefully you aren't planning on a modern experience in that old a Mac.
Good luck & happy computing!

What are the AME Tables that I can use to get approvers list

Hi
Please provide me any information about the tables by which I can get approvers list.
Thanks
Amit

Tthe application communicates with AME when a transaction is initiated in the application, and then each time an approver responds to the application‟s request for approval of the transaction, until all approvers have approved the transaction. AME records each approval, and recalculates the approver list for a transaction each time an approver responds to a request for approval of the transaction.] As far as AME is concerned it calculates approver list at runtime .

What is the latest version where you can use replace tabs?

I will only use a firefox version that has a replacetabs add-on option - which is the most updated version that can utilize this function?

What do you mean with replace tabs option?
Do you want to open links in the current tab instead of in a new tab or window?
You can look at these extensions:

Can Leopard run on it ?

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)

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.

I have a Power Mac G4 1.25 Ghz 1 GIG Ram, what is the latest OS X I can run?

I have a Power Mac G4 1.25 Ghz 1 GIG Ram, what is the latest OS X I can run? I am currently running Jaquar. Where can you obtain older versions of OS X?

Actually you can run up to Leopard 10.5. It requires a G4 867mHz processor so you are comforatbly over the minimum specs.
That said, I offer two caveats regarding Leopard that may make Tiger 10.4 more appealing:
1) Leopard may want more than 1G RAM. With currently available modules, you can take your Max RAM to 2GB. You can install up to 2GB RAM.
2) If you don't have a video card that supports Core Image, things can be choppy. My 1.25 G4 is a tad sluggish with Leo because I have the original ATI Radeon 9000 64MB VRAM vid card. If you have a Redeon 9600 or higher, you likely have Core Image Support. Use System Profiler to Identify your exact video card. SP is in Applications > Utilities. Select "Graphics/Displays" from SP's "Contents" pane on the left to view the specs of your card in the main pane. It wil tell you if Core Image is supported.
If you can get Leo running fine, it's better in that many programs no longer support 10.4.
Looks like yo uare in the Continental US. Call Apple at 800-MY-APPLE and ask for an operating system specialist. Tell them you need 10.5 to support new hardware. I bought that way in March, and it sounded like they wre going to keep Leo in stock for a whie because of the larger number of olders Macs that can;t run Snow Leopard or Lion.
Be very, very careful of Mac OS software on auction sites. I've seen too many that were improperly described and would not work. Likewise the gray Leopard install disk that came packed with another Mac model won't work.
I just checked--OWC does not list any Apple System software at this time.

I have a early 2008 Macbook Pro, need to up grade the hard drive so that I can add a windows environment what is the largest drive that I can put in this computer? Is the storage size the constraint or the physical size of the drive? Or a combination?

The largest capacity HDD that you can install is the HGST 1.5 TB HDD:

Any 2.5" 9.5mm thick SATA HDD will fit and operate in your MBP, regardless of capacity.

Yes, you can install 16GB in your new macbook pro.
Go here (OWC) and here (Crucial) to give you options on how much you want to spend.
Good luck.

What is the file size that ODI can handle

Hi all,
What is the file size that ODI can handle ?????????
can it handle 1GB files without any issues?????????
Thanks
Phani

Hi Phani,
It also depends on the type of file you are transfering. If have used the XML file around 1GB and the performance is very low. But we used the Database schema to load the XML data and the performance had increased very well.
I never tried the large flat files load around 1GB.
Thanks,

I have a sequence shot on the 550d/rebel T2i, I converted it to prores 422 and edited in fcp. What is the best export that i can do to preserve quality and prevent pixelation.

i have a sequence shot on the 550d/rebel T2i, I converted it to prores 422 in MPEG Streamclip and edited in fcp. What is the best export that i can do to preserve quality and prevent pixelation. Rite now, i have been just clicking on the export to quicktime function, but the quality of the footage is completely reduced and colours look desaturated and there is pixellation compared to the original camera footage. Also is there anyway i can render and export the sequence using the original footage (like an online edit or something). Also is there anyway to upgrade the final quality. I have Compressor, Dvd Studio pro, Motion, Color and Cinema tools, i dnt know if they are of any use to me and have no idea how to use hem or what they are for also.

>What is the best export that i can do to preserve quality and prevent pixelation
The best way to export is entirely dependent on what you plan to do with the exported video. For example, if you plan to go to DVD, the export process is different than if you plan for web delivery or for iPhone viewing. Compressor has presets for most final delivery formats ... start with those.
>is there anyway i can render and export the sequence using the original footage
Yes. In FCP, go to File-Export->QuickTime Movie. Check the box to make the movie Self-Contained and use Current Settings. Do NOT "Recompress All Frames." The resulting self-contained movie will play on any Mac that has the needed audio and video codecs installed.
>is there anyway to upgrade the final quality
No and maybe. While you technically cannot improve quality over the original, you can possibly 'enhance' the aesthetic quality of the video using various filters in FCP or Color.

A PPC G5 cannot run any version of OS X beyond Leopard 10.5.8.
You should be able to find a Leopard retail (black) install disk on eBay. A grey update disk is machine specific and won't work.
