Q: I have Mac OS X 10.5.8 right now, how do I update to Mac OS X 10.6.8 in order to download iTunes 10.7?
Basically my question is in my title. I have Mac OS X 10.5.8 right now and I have one of the old really white macbook laptops and I am wondering step by step how do I update all the way to Mac OS X 10.6.8 in order to download iTunes 10.7? (Ps. I already clicked on the Apple symbol on the top left part of my screen and clicked "Software Update'' but it says I am up to date, which clearly is not right)
Thank You
MacBook, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

It is Correct for your Current OS = Leopard = 10.5.8
The first step in Upgrading... is to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x
It is Not available as a download...
Do this first...
Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
Snow Leopard Tech Specs

If so Contact Apple in your Country to Purchase a Snow Leopard Disc...

In the US...
1-800-MY-APPLE or 1-800-676-2775
After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...
