Where can I buy the snow leopard software disc?

I'm trying to upgrade my MacBook Pro but in order to do that I have to install the Snow Leopard version. Now when I asked a worker at the Apple store where do I get this from, he told me to look online for the installation disc.. I can't find a the installatio disc. Please help me!

Not stupid.
5-license disk can be installed (and stay installed) on 5 separate systems at the same time.
1-user disk can be used to upgrade for the purpose of going to Lion or ML, then used to upgrade another because it is no longer actually installed on the system that is Lion or ML.
If you think you will ever need installed on two systems at the same time, remeber that Apple will eventually stop selling it for $19/$29 and your only source will be Amazon at $100+.
I bought a spare 5-user disk for the very "$100+ through Amazon" reason.

  • HT3258 where can I buy/ download Snow Leopard OS for my Macbook Pro so I can run PowerPC?

    I need help.
    where can I get/ buy/ download snow leopard os so I can run PowerPC..

    If you are outside of the USA & Canada, the Apple Store will not ship you Snow Leopard Server.  You must have someone in the USA or Canada purchase it for you and then trans-ship it to you, which, of course, will increase the shipping costs. 
    Snow Leopard Server for $19.99 + sales tax & shipping costs at 1.800.MYAPPLE (1.800.692.7753) - Apple Part Number: MC588Z/A (telephone orders only).
    Another alternative is to purchase Snow Leopard client and install that into Parallels 8:

    This will give you an environment where you can run your PowerPC CDs.

  • Where can I find the snow leopard upgrade.  I am currently running leopard 10.5.8

    I have been searching through the apple store to upgrade my current os - 10.5.8? To upgrade to lion, it appears I need to have snow leopard 10.6. However, I cannot find the upgrade in the apple store.

    Start by checking if you cn run Snow Leopard:

    Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs.  You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

    If you need to purchase Snow Leopard you can still purchase a copy from Apple's online store's telesales agents.[1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775.] Ask for a Sales Representative.
    Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
    Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
    Snow Leopard from eBay
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.

  • I want to upgrade leopard os 10.5.8 to snow leopard and then maybe to lion. Where can I buy a sow leopard disk?

    Help,
    I have a MacBook Pro and would like to upgrade the OS.
    My system is 2-3 years old and came with Leopard -
    It is up to date with Version 10.5.8 and has a 2.5 GHZ Intel Core 2 duo processor
    I have 4GB  667MHZ DDR2 SDRAM memory.
    I want to update to Snow Leopard and then maybe Lion.....
    It appears my systems is to old to update online. So where can I buy a Snow Leopard disk/s. My local Best Buy does not carry the disk update anymore. Where can I get the disk?
    Not to happy with my MAC right now ............. It seems to be poorly supported by APPLE.  Am I missing something   ?
    Jimmy

    You apparently missed my response.
    It can also be found by entering "Store" under the Apple home page, and typing "snow leopard" in the search window.

  • HT201364 I have added the Snow Leopard software, so how do I download OS X

    From my understanding, Adding the Snow Leopard Software would enable my computer to download OS X.  Where/how can I do that?

    First, you need to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 using Software Update.
    Once that is done, you will have the App Store in the Apple Menu. Go there and download Mavericks.
    However, you might want to check to see if your Mac is capable of running Mavericks. If it didn't have Snow Leopard already installed, it has a slim chance of being capable of running Mavericks.
    In the Apple Menu, select About this Mac, then click More Info button.
    In the Hardware section, look for "Model Identifier"
    Yours needs to be at least MacbookPro3,1 or higher.

    The Snow Leopard license that Apple sells only allows you to upgrade one Mac. If you want to upgrade more than one computer, you have to buy the Mac OS X Snow Leopard family pack > http://www.amazon.com/Snow-Leopard-Family-Pack-5-User/dp/B001AMPP0W

    Yes if your already on OS X Snow Leopard 10.6
    See #8 Reinstall Just OS X + Software Update
    ..Step by Step to fix your Mac
    However you should backup files REGARDLESS as anything can happen at anytime.
    Most commonly used backup methods
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/notebooks/macbook_pro?view=documents
    Yes if your upgrading 10.4/10.5 to Snow Leopard 10.6
    However if your hard drive is more than 50% full, then it might be slow. Move just your users files temporarily to a external storage drive (not TimeMachine) and reboot, check in Activity Monitor than you have reclaimed drive space, then upgrade to 10.6, then reboot and Software Update to 10.6.8, then return your users files into their respective Music, Pictures, Documents etc., folders.

    Optional:  For Snow Leopard Speed Freaks
    I do NOT advise you upgrade to 10.7 or later on 10.4/10.5 issued hardware due to risks and performance issues, your PPC based programs will not work and require replacement.

  • I am trying to install windows 7 on my macbook pro 13", when i run bootcamp it tells me that there is not a windows support software available for my computer. Where can i get the windows support software for my macbook?

    I am trying to install windows 7 on my macbook pro 13", when i run bootcamp it tells me that there is not a windows support software available for my computer. Where can i get the windows support software for my macbook?

    Apple only supports Windows on certain hardware.
    http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
    Apple provides their framework for Windows to run on a Mac, a piece of software called a Hybrid MBR that bridges the gap between how Windows reads the drive partition table (MBR) and EFI/GUID partition table that Mac's use.
    It doesn't mean Windows can't run on your Mac, a third party solution called rEFIt will also bridge the gap and allow booting of more that just Windows, Linux as well for a triple booting computer.
    Your hardware has to meet the other requirements the second and third operating system needs as as being able to install drivers that will work for your hardware, especially the fans or they will run loud and fast by default.
    http://refit.sourceforge.net/
    This above is a advanced procedure which requires knowledge how computers and various operating systems, drive formats and so forth work.
    I even admit I don't know everything myself, but I experiment on a separate piece of Mac hardware (out of warranty/AppleCare) designed for this purpose so in case something screws up I'm not taking down my only machine and can use the other to get online and find solutions.
    There is a very high potential for losing your data if your using advanced/non-Apple methods to install Windows on your only Mac where Apple doesn't support it. Also one shouldn't be doing this on Mac hardware that is under AppleCare or warranty as it might be voided. Proceed at your own risk and education.

  • Where can i download the oracle applications software for DBA

    Hi,
    I want to know few things regarding oracle applications.
    1) What exactly is oracle applications
    2) Where can i download the oracle applications software
    3) I am currently working as oracle DBA, so i want to enhance the dba skills to oracle application, so where can i find further help,documentation related to oracle applications and dba related to that.

    Oracle Applications is an integrated ERP solution, with Finance, Manufacturing and CRM modules. Please visit appsnet for further information.
    Unlike other Oracle products, Oracle doesnot give free software downloads for Oracle Applications. They were once giving trial versions for about 40 USD. Now I am not sure, please check up Oracle website www.oracle.com. Look for link on "e-business suite" under the 'products' directory.
    If you can get hold of documentation on 11i, you can check out System Administration and Application Object Library (AOL) modules, these fall in your area. You can find this on oracle website or metalink.
    Be aware that general Oracle DBA on 8i or 9i is a different ballgame than managing 11i. Lot of websites are available for these harried people, and for more information, you can visit the websites www.appsdba.com, www.oncalldba.com or do a general google search.
    If you can get hold of a book "OCP for Oracle Financials 11.0" by Christopher Allen and Vivian Chow, this has good documentation on above two modules. But this is in 11.0, not 11i.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I revert to Snow Leopard from Mountain Lion? I do not have the setup disk that came with my MacBook but I do have the Snow Leopard software.

    I upgraded to Mountain Lion and very much regret this move.  I cannot use Parallels or Bootcamp for Windows XP which I need for some of my 'older' accessories.  How do I revert from Mountain Lion back to Snow Leopard?  I have the Snow Leopard software but I do not have the original setup software disk that came with the MacBook (leant to a friend and never seen again).

    If you do revert to Snow Leopard, be aware of this "feature" I used with my 2009 MacBook Pro:
    When it had the original OS (Leopard, I believe) I set up Bootcamp with Windows XP.  I also installed Parallels and use the Bootcamp partition for Windows XP within Parallels.
    I then upgraded to Snow Leopard and all was fine.
    I then upgraded to Lion and still my Bootcamp partition works for Windows XP and also for Parallels.
    I have not upgraded to Mountain Lion so I cannot speak to whether or not the Bootcamp paritition of Windows XP will continue to work.  If you do and it works, LET US KNOW!
