Check to make sure your applications are compatible.

Also check to make sure there is a compatible driver for your printer.


Do a backup before installing, preferable 2 backups on 2 different drives.


If you can't upgrade your OS version, can you borrow a device/computer that is running a newer IOS/OS version so you can log into the App Store/iTunes and update your payment information?
