Q: updated to 10.6.8 and now safari, system preferences, address book say "can't use this version"

Got a new harddrive in my 2010 macbook pro and rebooted it with time machine back up from a older mac running 10.5.8.  I loaded snow leopard 10.6 from disc then updated to 10.6.8 on new computer after restore from back up.  Now the Safari icon, system preferences and address book won't open and a box opens saying you can't use this version of the application system preferences with this version of mac os X      You have sytem preferences 5.2.  or safari says you have safari 5.0.6 etc.  How do i update the apps so i can make them actually open.  I can get them open in a round about way but not from the icons on my sidebar.
