I can't get my Mac Mini from Yosemite 10.5.5

I have a Mac Mini running 10.5.5 2011 end quite happy.  I bought a 2 trackpad, but El Capitan need to get full use, so I downloaded 10.11.4 successfully.  But when I try to install I get the message: the attention of this update requires OS X version 10.11.  I could not find 10.11.0, but I downloaded 10.11.2 and had the same alert.  Then I tried to download Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and got: the attention of this update requires OS X version 10.6.  I can't believe that it is necessary to download every single update to get the latest version.  Clearly there is something wrong with my Mini (works perfectly), but I have not a clue about where to look or what to do.  Can someone help me?

It is not possible for a 2011 mini Mac running 10.5.5 outside an emulator. If your computer is compatible with El Capitan, you need to buy a Snow Leopard DVD, update 10.6.8 and then get El Capitan from the Mac App Store.

  • How can I check my Mac mini for spyware and other viruses

    How can I check my Mac mini for software spyware and other forms of virus? Recently, I received an electronic invoice which seems to come from Apple on a purchase that I did not. Unfortunately, I answered by clicking on a link that asked me to cancel or manage this purchase that led me to a site that didn't look like an official Apple site. I am afraid that simply by doing so, I welcomed the spyware on my Mac mini hard drive.

    My Mac was purchased in 2011 and runs on OS X El Capitan (version 10.11.6).

    Receive a fraudulent e-mail for a purchase confirmation, you did not is a very common scam. Remember that you are not misled by providing personal information solicited by this e-mail.

    No harm will come of the fact that you wrote. Fraudulent Web sites that are made to appear as legitimate those who are specially designed to convince you to reveal personal information. If you don't have that, no further action is necessary or justified. Do not install anything, no matter the source or the apparent popularity, in response to one such scam. To do this would be the first step in a path well worn to the misery.

    On the other hand, if you were tricked into providing personal information (like your Apple ID and password) you will need to change your password on Apple ID. Please write back for instructions.

  • Registry files have been deleted via a Norton 360 3.0 registry clean up - can't get an ip address from the router

    I'm running Vista Ultimate, -connection (Ethernet) with Verizon FIOS I ran a Norton registry clean and foolishly trust what he says to remove.

    At first, all of my USB cards have been screwed up (noted in the Device Manager with exclamation next to each one points)
    I did a system restore and that corrects this problem, but now I'm having a problem with my network card.
    , All diagnostic tests, etc. show that the material is very good. My router is also fine the problem is that windows can't get an IP address from the router and then assigns his own
    (a # 169 instead of a # 192)
    In the network connection properties, it says that the device is functioning correctly, and the driver is up-to-date.
    'Connection speed' tab: a window of diagnosstics is: I ran testto test adapters connect to connect to the network.
    Results: connection Test
    Test details:

    I have "this card is configured to obtain an IP address automatically. No DHCP server is present on the network. Windows selected an IP address by using the alternative private IP addressing. »

    X "Ping 0.0.0.0 Gateway: failure.
    !  "No DNS server is available for this connection.
    ! "No WINS server is available for this computer.
    X "Ping 0.0.0.0 network: failure.
    ------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    In this same window of diagnostics under the "LinksTab".
    Link current test status: (what is determine the current connection speed of the adapter and link partner)
    Results:
    ! The adapter is configured to negotiate the speed with the link partner, but 1000 Mbps was chosen as one of the possible speeds.

    The best link options-results of the speed test:
    ! Could not detect way reliable speed and duplex settings. Possible speed/duplex settings are 100 Mbps Full Duplex and Half Duplex 100.
    (Note that these link tests are online and I can't online)

    Also in the Diagnostics window-under the 'Cable' link cable - past-polarity is normal.
    Depending on the tab is the Hardware tab
    Hardware diagnostics check for I/O conflicts...
    Results: all the tests:
    EEPROM test
    FIFO test
    Test register
    Interruption of the tests
    Loopback test

    I also went in the prompt type in IPCONFIG... c which shows:
    Ethernet connection to the Local network card:
    ConnectionSpecific DNS suffix: (it's completely empty here)
    Link-local IPv6 address: fe80::bda9:951 d: 619f:a0dc 9%
    Autoconfiguration IPv4 address: 169.254.160.220
    Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0
    Default Gateway: 0.0.0.0

    I also have a sort of ping command here-cant remember the command, but the results were in the CBS... I didn't know how to reach. He however escape from something on the registry files.

    I went throughD-Link Tech router (router) support is good, Fios Tech support everything set up right, - Norton support(Norton denies that the files were not to be touched-although their report shows these registry files were deleted)-Dell Tech support because my warranty missed 3 weeks ago - although I still have the "your Tech Support team until 2013 - which is valid only if you have a hardware warranty-made no sense sold me the car without. the engine - directed the FTC to bring a complaint about it - after I get this fixed number.

    I hope someone can help... by the way I get perfectly in line with my laptop - I know this isn't my router. I'm sure it's due to some registry files being moved-(j'ai eu deles de messages d'erreur indiquant que les fichiers de Registre ont été endommagées ou manquantes) what do I do now? No system restore to restore this part of the register - I also installed the drivers from the dell drivers and Utilities disc - but maybe I've done that correctly? I put the disc - extract files-(he says they have been unpacked) was a new step for me to do after that? Help, please!
    Thank you!

    Hello
     
    We recommend that you install the router (see its manual) and the pilot of NIC once more and check the difference. In the first post, you mentioned that you decompressed or extracted files. Once the files are extracted, you will be asked to install the driver. However if you do not receive any prompts for the driver, then you will need to locate the destination folder where the files are checked to find the configuration file.

    Open the destination folder where the files are extracted and run the Setup file to complete the installation.
     
    To download and install the latest network card driver, visit the site Web of the manufacturer of the device or system.
     
     
    I hope this helps.
    Kind regards

    Adobe offers only a platform Swap on current software: order product. Platform, language swap

    CS3 is also too old to have a "upgrade path" and is no longer sold or taken in charge by Adobe.

    You, as an owner of CS3, are eligible for a 40% discount on your first year of a subscription to creative cloud well: pricing and membership creative cloud plans | Adobe Creative Cloud

    If you don't want to go with the subscription service, Adobe still offers CS6 (4 versions of current & no longer receive updates) as a perpetual license "a time of payment/download": Creative Suite 6

    William,

    I would use for this collections. A link is good if you need to pass a single value.

    1. create a collection
    2 fill the collection with your result set
    3. go in the page target and uses a method of a query in your link to this page
    4. your target page receives a request and allows you to edit documents.
