How do I / Can I install Face Time?

My iMac is running OS X 10.5.8 and when I've tried to install Face Time the installer says I can't because I don't have Security Update 2010-005 although I have successfully installed this and later security updates.

Can anyone help?

Cheers.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

If your iMac has an Intel processor, you can purchase Mac OS 10.6 Snow Leopard. Click on the "Store" tab above or visit any place that sells Mac software. Facetime only works with 10.6.

If your iMac is a G5 or G4, you cannot install Snow Leopard, and you're out of luck on Facetime.

You need to have Mac OSX snow leopard to install Face time. it dosnt work on leapord like a whole list of other apps.

If you dont mind waiting for a while i suggest that u get lion which will be out this summer, rather than snow leopard .
