Upgrade of the old IMac

What should I do to beef-up my old IMac (short of buying a new one)?

It is a model IMac 6.1 - OS X 10.6.8 version (running snow leopard) with a processor Intel core 2 duo with speed of 2.16 GHz, 1 GB of memory and a L2 Cache 4 MB - system version 1.10f2. Add more memory will allow me to upgrade to the latest version of OS X 10?

  • HP 990 cm print is no longer the color since the upgrade to the new iMac with Mountain Lion

    Have an older CV (990c, m series) which worked fine on my iMac Leopard PPC (X.5.8) running.

    Since the upgrade to the new Intel iMac running Mountain Lion (the most recent software upgrades / w X.8.2) this printer will print only in black and white, despite having new color and cartridges inkjet black installed - even the test pattern that prints automatically when I changed the print cartridges only in B & W.

    The detailed print dialog box that appears when I try to print a color page does not include the usual option to print in color.

    I think that HP is no longer provides this older printer drivers but guess they are in the software updates in Mac OS.

    Someone has an idea how I can fix it, or is it just time to recycle this printer and buy a new one?

    TIA

  • Photography from the old iMac to a new iMac CC

    Hello

    I know this has been asked in many ways yet:

    I have currently a 2011 27 "iMac with the original CC packing photography and I have a new iMac 27" retina - I know that you can not use migration assistant to move the CC but I want to use the wizard migration for everything else. " Could someone give me really clear and easy [I'm not a big geek] not of what I do to permanently remove CC so I can get then install failsafe.

    Because I have a CC start plan there are at least 2 copies of Photoshop and Lightroom 3 copies on my old iMac [including an old copy of "standalone" version 4].

    If I completely uninstall CC what happens to my settings, presets etc.?

    I have a complete set of plug-ins from Nik/Google-how can I migrate these?

    It all seems very daunting - it would be better to contact customer support?

    Thanks for any help in advance

  • Upgrade of the old security after El Capitan logs

    Hey!

    A couple of days, I did an upgrade to Yosemite to El Capitan.

  • Pure install new version (upgrade) at the old version (full) not installed?

    I just had a fleet of hard drive and so I wanted to reinstall Lightroom 6 but I received a message that it could not find lightroom 5 anywhere.

    It's because I had not installed.  Initially, I bought 5, then upgraded to 6.  The new drive I was trying to install the upgrade to 6 without installing 5 first (you know, 'clean' install).

    A clean installation is possible?  How? Or do I have to install 5 first and then proceed to 6?

    So nevermind, read the installation invites more carefully.  Complete when it cannot find the version that you select the one that bought you in a drop-down list, and enter the appropriate serial number.  So here it goes.
