I can't download any apps or upgrades from the app store on my 13.3" macbook pro. I can log on to the app store and look at apps, but when I try to download anything all I get is the spinning wheel. Any suggestions?
MacBook white 2.4 GHz 2 GB RAM 160 GB Hard Drive, Mac OS X (10.5.5)
Apple did not make the Mac App Store available until 10.6.6, and most Apps on there are only available for 10.6.6 and higher. If you are really running 10.5.5, you should seriously consider getting 10.6 and updating to 10.6.8 because of a first virus to ever venture in Mac OS X, which affects anyone browsing with Java. Those with less than 10.6.8 can turn off Java to avoid it, but of course this means many websites won't be accessible. This tip explains how to turn off Java with 10.6.7 or earlier, or update to 10.6.8 and apply the Java patch:

10.6 is still available from many places, but is not necessary for upgrading to 10.7.
Here are your options for 10.6:
