• OS for mid 2009 MacBook Pro update

  I work for a non-profit on a laptop given to us by a local research laboratory. So the first thing to understand is that I have to find "the best way to make things work" even though it is not as advanced or great power that may be desirable in an ideal situation. Who says:

  I've been running OS 10.6.8 on a MacBookPro mid-2009. From now on, the software companies are all pulling the versions of software that I can use on 10.6.8 so I have no choice but to update my operating system.

  My concern: two years ago I updated a MacBookPro 2007 10.6.8 to 10.7 (Lion) and he died 3 weeks later. The technology at the Mac Genius Bar told me that it was because the real hardware - hard drive of the machine - was so old that the upgrade has been too hard on it and it burned. I understand that, even if the hard drive is not burning after an upgrade, the computer may run very slowly and for the same reason (physical constraints). It would also be a problem.

  Given all this, what is the best suggestion for the safest possible and achievable OS upgrade, that I can put on my machine so I can stay in business? Can probably manage 10.7, even if the material is nearly 7 years old? What 10.8.5 10.8 or same?

  I realize that system specs say it can work even in Yosemite. But I don't want to take the risk that go well, given my recent disasters.

  Thanks for any advice you can provide.

  You never mentioned the amount of RAM the machine has-

  You can always switch to Mountain Lion 10.8 - here

  There is a cost, but I don't know if you call or otherwise contact Apple with your situation - you can get a redemption code - well no harm in trying

• 24-inch iMac (mid-2007). How to upgrade?

  I have an iMac 24 inch (mid-2007) with Mac OS installed 10.6.8. I just installed a new HD, I have to reinstal of Mac OS X. I am to the 10.5.8 level using my cdrom. How can I upgrade?

  Thank you.

  The upgrade to 10.5.8 requires using a disc; It is generally a retail DVD of Snow Leopard. It can be purchased on the Apple Online Store.

  Update since 10.6.8 is possible by downloading El Capitan, or redownloading a BONE you obtained previously from the Mac App Store or by purchasing a download code for Lion or Lion of the mountains on the Apple Store online.

• Mid 2007 iMac

  Hello! I have an iMac mid 2007, and, of course, it only is not supported (officially) for macOS Sierra. I read that an upgrade of the CPU can support, but no one knows if this is true? Thank you!!

  3MJB

  No, this is not correct.

  There is no official updates. Even if you have replaced the entire mother (at great expense), the installer would probably not recognize and not to install Sierra, anyway.

  If you have a spare monitor, you might want to consider buying a Mac mini from recent.

• How long the mid 2007 iMac, running El Capitan 10.11.6 rely on Apple?

  Hi all

  I was dreading the day where it would happen, but with the release of the Sierra of the OS, I see that my iMac mid 2007 is no longer able to update for Sierra. I am El Capitan 10.11.6 running without any problems and always up-to-date security, etc. I would like to know how long my iMac will be supported by Apple and for how long it will be safe to use.

  Thank you!

  It is usually 7-8 years for the material, if you are already past. I don't know what's calendar from Apple for the OS, but you're on the latest version of El Capitan and I guess they will award updates security for a little; However, since Sierra was published, the focus has shifted to who and I expect updates to security for a past OS for over a year about.

• Cannot install OS (10.6.3) on 2007 MacBook Pro.

  Hello world!

  Since my Macbook Air drowned, I bought a MacBook Pro opportunity. The previous owner completely wiped off everything so there is no operating system when booting it shows only the folder with the question mark.

  We are talking MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo 2.4 15 "Mid / late 2007, A1226.

  As far as I understand and my extensive research, this machine should run Snow Leopard and even the latest Mac OS. So, I bought a Snow Leopard 10.6.3 DVD installation online. When I start the MacBook Pro and insert the DVD, nothing happens. I tried all combinations of button Option button C, command + R etc. It seems he's trying to play the DVD but it spits out once again, then I get the folder with question mark agaon.

  Am I missing something here? Am I pressing the wrong keys? I didn't have the DVD with the original MacBook Pro to install and hope to get a recent OS installed.

  Any help is very appreciated! Thank you!

  Richard

  The Snow Leopard disc should be white.  If it is gray, it won't work.

  If the DVD is white, it may be damaged or DVD drive is malfunctioning.

  You can test the DVD on a MBP it's 2009 or older.  Also test with an external DVD drive.

  Ciao.

  You try boot in safe boot mode? SHIFT key is pressed after chime

  Start, and if you hold the key in the correct way and timely, you may need to

  to provide your admin user password to continue in safe mode.

  May have removed the essential parts of the system while it was trying to

  delete the troublesome app; Thus it is likely a reinstall of the OS X.

  In addition to the troubleshooting & using Find to locate all parts of this application

  who could survive, could be performed. Also, you might try it and see that the
  Console logs suggest, according to the exact time/Date of broadcast. --

  You might see if Disk Utility could repair permissions on the hard drive. This

  is different from that of an attempt to repair the hard drive.

  You may need to start the computer from the DVD Snow Leopard system to

  see if you can then use disk utility in the options menu of the installer, then

  See If you can repair the hard disk using this version of disk utility.

  Otherwise, you need to maybe reinstall from DVD and then upgrade the system to 10.6.8

  This shouldn't erase your user account. However, applications that are

  in your user account that might have been part of this problem, can be activated.

  Applications from websites can be problematic. Some of them may contain odd

  bad software tips; According to the reputation of the source, adware, malware or elements

  No wanted or expected can upload with results very unexpected.

  It may be better methods to solve problems or solve this problem. To find out what

  current may require looking at the system logs, among other things.

  The application did not have an uninstall program? If you provide your user password

  during installation, it may request a detailed correct uninstall in order to not

  damage to the other sections of the system. The applications folder is a place to look, if included.

  Good luck!
