The next major upgrade requires retail OSX 10.6.3 Snow Leopard DVD installation disc:
• Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple (US $19.99) on DVD at retail:
http://www.Apple.com/shop/product/MC573Z/A/Mac-OS-x-106-Snow-Leopard
And the Apple Store online for about $20. With this DVD, you can
upgrading to a new OS X. After installation, download last step Combo update here:
• Mac OS X 10.6.8 Combo Update v1.1 - this update to download full 10.6.
{Those all Snow Leopard OS X 10.6.8.} Then the computer might be
to get in the App Store for some applications; but not the most recent.
{It can could be upgraded to another entirely new OS X as described below...}
Snow Leopard 10.6.8 must be completely installed before considering another
upgrade, that costs but has also no installation disc media. 10.7.5 lion.
This model can not be upgraded to the latest OS X but could not only
OS X 10.7 Lion (by purchase, online at Apple Store: $20) Who will be
then allow you to use a download available from Apple Code
to access the App Store to download the purchased OS X 10.7 Lion.
• OS X Lion (10.7) - Apple Store (US $19.99)
http://www.Apple.com/shop/product/D6106Z/A/OS-x-lion
Once installed over download, you can get download update Combo:
• Download the update of OS X Lion 10.7.5 (customer Combo)
The total capacity of chip RAM or memory can also be upgraded in the
to add performance with a BONE later X, see the specs here:
6.0 (actuals) GB 4.0 GB (Apple) maximum memory
2-200-pin PC2-5300 (667 MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMM memory slots
{This would mean a single chip of 4GB and a 2GB chip for 6 GB total}
The computer you can be also (if not already installed) capable
use an update of the firmware MacBook EFI Firmware Update 1.2
Apple - Support - downloads - EFI firmware updates...
Some older applications will not make the transition to Snow Leopard
for later versions of OS X, as support for some those has been truncated.
Several former MacBook core2duo users, found better Snow Leopard
that Lion 10.7.5. However if you have a new iPhone or other devices
a later iTunes and other applications can allow to sync from Mac to them;
where Snow Leopard 10.6.8 could not. So he invites further research.
Hope this helps a little...
Good luck in this case!

Is it possible to install CS5 or CS5.5 on a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM MacBook Pro 10.6 (Snow Leopard) running?
Before posting my question, I checked the requirements of system/hardware for Creative Suite, as well on Internet Apple and Adobe sites. But however I'm confused about the difference between 'Processor Intel multicore' vs 'Core 2 Duo' and hearing stories CS5 works not properly in similar situations because of hardware problems.
Hi LMDV,
Welcome to the community!
Intel multi-core processor, also known as the Dual core processor is required to run the CS5 or CS5.5, you have the Core 2 Duo which is better then Dual core and enough to run CS5 and CS5.5 applications. You just need to check the other requirements of system that is mentioned here:

Thank you!

I have a MacBook Pro 17 withProcessor - in 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (circa 2007). Running OS 10.7.5 (Lion). System indicates the computer is not compatible with OS later. Hardware can be upgraded to the latest processors and other components to make it compatible with the latest OS. I think that later models of Macbook Pro 17-inch with processors that allow updates. I was wondering if these can be swapped or if alternatives were available.
Only the RAM and storage (HD, SSD) can be changed. Everything is welded to the map logical and selected specially for the system configuration.
I'm sorry.

My I Mac computer is older than 6 years and became slower and slower. I added the memory once in the past which has contributed to the speed. He was clocked at 2.66 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo for a processor and memory is 4 GB 800 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM. I wonder if I it is better to buy more memory or if the computer needs to be replaced, it still works very well for email and working on small documents, but it is really slow and crashes when working with images and large files. Any advice is welcome.
I have a similar computer. It will accept 6 GB of memory. It is far from slow and Etrecheck reports he cited as excellent. I think you have some unnecessary baggage in tow. Why not download and do a report for us Etrecheck. Publish it as an answer, here, and maybe we'll find the reasons...

Install Snow Leopard on iMac 2.8 GHz Quad Core i5
I just bought a refurbished 21.5 in iMac 2.8 GHz Quad Core Intel Core i5 on the Apple Store to replace an aging 21.5 in iMac 3.06 GHz Intel Core i3. The new iMac has 10 El Capitan 10.11.6 OS and the old iMac OS Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
I have old versions of Quark Xpress, Photoshop, Illustrator and Filemaker Pro on the old iMac running SL and I want to continue to use these. I am now retired and can no longer pay to upgrade.
I partitioned the HD on the new iMac and had hope install SL and migrate all my old files from the old computer. I tried to recover from a Time Machine backup since the iMac old and installation of the system from a bootable USB stick SL. None of them has allowed me to move forward.
Has anyone else tried this and succeeded? Will I have to completely erase the HD in the new computer, partition the drive, install SL on a partition and, on the other?
I've seen similar issues but no response to my problem. Real help would be appreciated.
Your mac is not designed to work in 10.6 and the operating system will prevent installation of 10.6 using the API. While this is possible through virtualization, but you will be using a 3rd party solution to do something your mac was not intended to do and any instability could be traced back to this.

5 Lightroom with 2 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo processor?
I just bought and installed LR5 and it is not important or even open the folders of images on my hard drive. I have a MacBook with Intel Core 2 Duo 2 GHz processor and I see on the packaging that the software requires a multi-core Intel with support 64-bit processor. I don't know if that's the problem. Otherwise, I meet all the requirements.
Can anyone help?
I think you're right about the minimum specifications... but you should still be able to oprate even at a slow speed.

I keep says my browser needs updating and it does not work on some Web sites. I had bad experiences in the past trying to update to Apple's OS and Firefox due to compatibility issues. I guess I could go to Safari, but I have been using Firefox for many years and prefer to stick to what I know.
Firefox 16.0.2 was the last to work on the old Mac OSX 10.5.x as Firefox 17.0 abreast demanded that OSX 10.6 +.

Can I replace the memory and not to lose what's on the memory of the former? I have a Mid 2007, 20 "desktop Mac, Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GHz processor, 1 CPU, 4 MB L2 cache, 4 GB of memory, 800 MHz bus speed. I have a backup device. A RAM slot is damaged.
You are confused of RAM and disk space available.
RAM stores information temporarily while the Mac is enabled and the application is reached. RAM replacement has no effect on the long term of your information storage.
The hard drive is where your information is stored in the long term. If you replace your hard drive, you need restore the information from a backup.
FYI, for your iMac, the maximum RAM is only 6 GB.
