Q: Inherited a Mac with OS 10.5.. how to bring it up to date?

Hey everybody,

 

I recently got a Mac desktop from my Aunt, which is great.  The only thing is, is that she has not updated it in years.  It is currently using OS 10.5.  I need to find a way to run all the updates to bring it up to date.  I have my own MacBook that is totally up to date, and I know that there are a lot of updates to run in order to do this.  Can anybody point me in the right direction in terms of bringing this up to date/ let me know if this is possible?  I tried to do this myself but I have had zero luck.. I keep downloading Mac OS 10.6, but when I open the file it tells me that the computer needs Mac OS 10.6 to run the update.. Weird.

 

Any help is appreciated, of course.

 

Thank you!
