Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard installation system requirements
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24950
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)

Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard Installation and Setup Guide
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/leopard_install-setup.pdf
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.
Tiger install DVDs are in short supply. Do a Google search for MA453Z/A (10.4.6), MA190Z/A (10.4.3) and M9639Z/A (10.4). Also look on eBay. Be sure & buy a retail version (black with silver X)
and not a model specific version (gray) (See http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1976068 Can I use another Mac's system restore disc on my Mac?.
Also check these web stores: http://www.lacomputercompany.com/cgi-bin/rpcart/index.cgi?command=dispitem&type= sku&sku=19521 http://www.allmac.com/shop/index.php?cPath=5_10003
Possible Alternative if you are currently using Panther 10.3 – Do a Google search for Tiger 10.4 Upgrade DVD . It will upgrade your 10.3 to 10.4, but it doesn’t contain the full retail Tiger installer. Should be cheaper than the retail Tiger install DVD.
After you install the base 10.4.x, update to the final Tiger version 10.4.11. Here's the link for the 10.4.11 combo update http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US
Look at this link Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger Installing Software Support Page
http://www.apple.com/support/tiger/install/
You can also download the Tiger Installation and Setup Guide
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/Tiger_Install_Setup_Guide.pdf
When you upgrade the OS, do it via Archive & Install. See About the Archive and Install feature http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1710
Be sure to select Preserve Users & Settings. Also, repair permissions before and after the install.

And, you are sure you have provided the correct username and password for you email account? I'm not familiar with Virgin media, so you might contact their tech support to find out why you are having a problem sending mail but none receiving mail. I assume your mail account has always been POP3 and not IMAP. Typically, the outgoing mail servers are not the same for the different types of account service.

I made a big mistake to change the setting of my Mac book pro to "me only". Now ofcourse It cannot open the login page, for how would the mac know it is me? How can I change the setting back to "everyone"?

So how can I go in and change the setting, It stays ofcourse at the apple screen with wheel. All info is there and the computer works fine, just cannot use it or have been able to log in.

wjosten is spot on. If you really want iCloud, then you will need to acquire a new or second hand MBP that can run Lion.
Ciao.

Simply purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store and it will begin installation after the download is complete. Note that it's a large download, about 4.5GB, so you should have a good Internet connection..
However... if I were you, I would just wait another month or so until Apple releases Mavericks - the 'latest' announced version of OS X -> http://www.apple.com/osx/preview/.
No need to pay for two upgrades in a months (or so) time...

Just downloaded Firefox 6.0 and have restarted 4 plus times, but it continues to hang while launching. I cannot open new windows, change any settings, or do anything but Force Quit. I'm on Mac OSX 10.5.8. How do I get past this hang?

Long story short: Simply get CC for teams. At 500 bucks a year it's a steal and those 5 licenses in the base package (or was it 10 even?) cover all your computers, at least the 3 ones you mentioned. For system requirements refer to the individual product pages.

You will need to purchase the DVD from Apple to upgrade to Snow Leopard. All upgrades after that (if required) will need Snow Leopard be installed first. Check the link below for requirements and ordering info.

HI Mac Folks,
My mac os install cd1 is scratched. how can I get another one?
MY computer won't start again. I have tried several tips (safe mode, single user ...) without success. when I attemp to boot on CD1 while pressing C key to try a repair, the computer won't boot (broken apple displays on my screen). After many actions to sort the issue out, I would like to reinstall my Macbook 2006 but I discovered that my mac os install CD1 is scratched, how can I get another CD?
Thanks for your help.

I am not sure why you can boot into diagnostic OK but not install from the cd. I think it is a dvd not cd. You sure you have the correct cd/dvd?
You can boot in startup manager on your machine by holding down the option key when you poweron. This will give you a little more info. Click on what you want to boot the click on the right arrow.

You're welcome.
Going back to your original post:
5) Tried running Itunes in 'safe mode', running itunes as an administrator..nothing.
Was that iTunes' safe mode as opposed to Windows' safe mode? iTunes safe mode is invoked by holding down CTRL+SHIFT immediately after clicking the icon to launch iTunes and continuing to hold until this message pops up:
Click continue, then close iTunes and reopen. With luck iTunes now opens normally every time.

Before, when I typed an http address in my hotmail account, it would be highlighted; since I got firefox, it is NOT highlighted. How can I get firefox to highlight an http address when I type it?

The above say it all:

Do you mean to create a clickable hyperlink while composing a new mail?
Just above the textarea that you use to enter the message text there is usually a button bar with buttons to add text formatting like Bold and Italic.<br />
That toolbar may also have a button to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button).<br />
You can select the text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink.<br />
If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each.

I need help with my Mac OSX 10.5.8. How can I use and install Flash Player 11.7?

From one to another day it wasn't possible to watch videos from certain TV channels in my browser (Firefox, but I think it doesn't matter).
I have Mac OSX 10.5.8 and don't know how I can use Flashplayer 11.7. Do I have to upgrade to Mac OSX 10.6? Does it really work then?
Or is the technical progress so fast, that if I upgrade to 10.6, they invent a new Flashplayer and I can't use it anymore? Do I have to upgrade maybe even to Mac OSX 10.7 and then OSX 10.8? I am confused...
It is really unfair, that a 5 year old laptop is too old to use normal equipement!
Can someone help me and tell me if my assumption is right?
Thank you very much!

Is this a PowerPC? See

Depending on the total installed RAM, you may wish to upgrade
the chip memory RAM as well as the Mac OS X system, too...
in addition to retail OS X DVD, Niel pointed to in the link.
according to http://mactracker.ca database RAM specs are:
Maximum Memory
8.0 GB (Actual) 4.0 GB (Apple)
Memory Slots
2 - 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM

Good luck

I have a iMac Mid 2011 Mac OSX Lion 10.7.5 How can I update it to 10.8.4? (I purchased 10.8.4 already on the app store)

Hello, I Have a iMac 21.5 inch Mid 2011 running latest version it can (10.7.5) I have purchased 10.8.4 directly from the app store. How can I update the computer to it? Do I simply just double click on on it?
Thanks!

If the installer's on your computer, double-click it and follow the onscreen directions. If not, log into the Mac App Store with the Apple ID used to buy it, click on the Purchases tab, and download it.
