What's the highest OSX I can install?

I just bought a iMac G4.
Year 2003.
Upgraded.
800mhz PPC G4
Velocity Engine.
768 Ram.
Airport Card
60 GB hard disk.
It had a linex system in it and I installed Mac OSX 10.2 but I want to upgrade it. What is the highest OSX it is possible to run on this computer? Can you download operating systems? I see its possible to download some but how would you install it? The system it has now is nowhere near as good as 10.5.8 which I have on my macbook.
Any advise is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

    The iBooks use a PowerPC 7447A (G4), so Mac OS X 10.5.8 is the latest version you can run.

    I am using os x 10.4.11 on a 2.4 ghz intel core 2 duo.  I don't believe I can install lion on this system but was wondering what is the highest version I can use?

    Here are the requirements for Lion:
    http://osxdaily.com/2011/06/07/mac-os-x-10-7-lion-system-requirements/
    In order to install Lion you have to have Snow Leopard and then update to 10.6.8:

    Personally I suggest that you stop at Snow Leopard.  It still is the most efficient OS that Apple has devised and it still works great.  Go to the Lions only if there are feature that you really need.  There may be a price to pay in slower performance though.

    I want to upgrade from Contribute CS3.  What is the highest system I can upgrade to?  I need to install on 2 computers; one is Windows and the other is MAC.  Can I do this?
    Thanks

    Contribute 6.5 is the current version and Adobe only sells current versions.
    Unfortunately Contribute CS3 is too old to qualify for an upgrade. Only CS4 and newer qualify.

    You'll either have to pay full price for CS6.5 or find another software solution.

  • What is the highest memory I can up grade to with macbook pro 4,1?

    What is the highest memory I can up grade to with macbook pro 4,1?  I want to upgrade to Mountain Lion, but only have 2 gb RAM.

    DDR2 - 667Mhz is the RAM for your Macbook.....
    You can upgrade to 6GB if you prefer to do so.......
    But you can get away with 4GB.....
    Check this RAM out for your Macbook

    Unless you have a compatible version of those applications on a computer, sell it and put the money towards a newer device.

    Mac OS X 10.5.8. You'll likely find it more cost-effective to buy a secondhand Intel Mac.

  • What's the highest Powerbook I can drop my hard drive into?

    I have a PowerBook G4 Titanium DVI with a SAMSUNG HM160JC Hard Drive (Connection Bus: ATA, Connection Type: Internal) and it's running OS X 10.4.11 and I'm wondering what is the most powerful PowerBook that I can drop my hard drive into?
    My PowerBook is from 2003, so a PowerBook from 2005-2006 would be a huge upgrade.
    Thanks!

    Hi, Roger. Any later Powerbook G4 model can use it — all Powerbook G4s use Parallel ATA drives like yours. MacBooks and MacBook Pros use Serial ATA (SATA) drives, and yours can't be installed in them, though it could be used as an external drive with a MB or MBP if mounted in an appropriate enclosure.
    It's likely that no other model will be able to use the operating system on the drive now, which was configured appropriately for your PB model at the time of installation. You'll probably have to reinstall the OS to get a suitable configuration for whatever machine you buy.

  • I have a Mac 10.2.8 and Firefox 2.0.0.20. What is the highest upgrade I can get for this Mac because I don't want to have to upgrade my Mac or buy a new one?

    I can't access certain links from sites, especially with a lot of graphics. I get messages to the effect that I need to upgrade my browser. But then the update says I need a 10.3 Mac or higher. Also any site with a lot of graphics takes forever to download. Is there an intermediate update that I could use instead for my Mac?

    For Mac 10.2.8 you need Firefox 2.0.0.20 as Firefox 3 will NOT RUN on your Operating System.
    Download Firefox 2.0.0.20 from HERE.... http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    Follow THESE Instructions to Install... http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installing_Firefox#Mac_OS_X
    BUT This is scheduled to be the LAST release of Firefox 2, so you will need to upgrade youur computer to receive further updates.

  • K7T pro (MS 6330) what is the highest CPU I can use?

          I currently have a Duron 650 and the manual says that I can go up to ~1.3 Ghz. However, the CPU compatibility chart has an N/A beside anything higher than 1.2, even if it has a 100 FSB.
          So my questions are: what is my limit, am I limited by a 250 watt power supply, does Athlon Thunderbird have much over the Duron, and will I see much difference from my 650 Duron?
          I assume that the CPU has to be FSB 100 so Athlon XP or MP are out.
          Thanks for any help.

    An Athlon XP could run in your board but it would only run at about 75% of it's clock speed due to the fact your board doesn't support 266MHz FSB.
    Officially you should only use a Duron1300 or old Athlon 1400/200 if you could still find one.
    A 250w PSU could limit you depending on the rest of your hardware and the exact model/ratings of this PSU.

    Halo,
    The hihgest you can ever rn is 10.5.8, 10.6 & above requires an Intel CPU.

    You can use 2 GB of RAM

    Leopard requirements/10.5.x...
        *  Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 (867MHz or faster) processor
    minimum system requirements
        * 512MB of memory (I say 1.5GB for PPC at least, 2-3GB minimum for IntelMacs)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * 9GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    Trouble is Apple no longer sells it, check eBay & such for the Retail version, not the Gray Discs...

  • IMovie to iPod - what is the highest resolution setting possible?

    I'm creating an iMovie and i want to save it to my 30gb video ipod, and then play it back on a lcd projector to a 12 foot screen (for a presentation in a room full of people). If i use the standard 320x240 resolution, i'm pretty sure it will look very pixelated when shown on a 720p lcd projector on a 12 foot screen.
    What is the highest resolution you can save your iMovie to an iPod, and then playback on a high resolution TV? I've tried several settings, but none are recognized by the ipod.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the info. I do not have a laptop (well, not a Mac laptop - bummer), and dragging my 20" imac will be a pain. I always bring backups, so i will also burn DVD and copy to video camera.
    Just thought it would be cool to walk and plug in my ipod to the projector. Pretty sure no one in my group has seen that before.
    Last question... can i export from imovie with the higher settings, or do i need to save to destop and then export with quicktime?
    Thanks!
