how do I upgrade from 10.6.8 to 10.7

Hi. There is no need to upgrade to Lion (10.7) to get Mountain Lion. You can upgrade directly from Snow Leopard (10.6.8) see the link below for details.

sadly, you have to pay for lion

You're quite welcome. Be sure to check the link I provided for information regarding compatible Macs.

im having trouble upgrading from 10.6.8 to 10.7.0 i cannot upgrade to mountain lion but i would like help on upgrading to lion

Please sorry for any inconvinience

I really need to know if I can upgrade directly to Mountain Lion without going throught Lion 10.7.0 because Apple states:

"Upgrading from OS X Snow Leopard

If you’re running Snow Leopard (10.6.x), update to the latest version of Snow Leopard before you download OS X Mavericks from the Mac App Store. Click the Apple icon and choose Software Update to install OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8, the latest version."

in the link provided ! I do not know what to think !

As stated in the Apple article, yes you can upgrade directly from snow Leopard to Mavericks, assuming your computer meets the requirements.

Thank you ! stedman1 🙂

You are quite welcome.

I just hope that when I upgrade I won't have aditional problems like changed configurations and stuff like that !

Most of the times, perhaps it's a bit stupid, I don't upgrade because I am afraid things go wrog somehow and I do not know how to go back.

What if I have a Mac Book Pro from late 2006? Can I upgrade it somehow?

hi,I am also facing the same prob. Are u through

Dear Stedman,

Doesn't work. When trying to update the following message comes up in the app store. 'This update requires OS X version 10.7 or later.'. My Mac should be compatible, I am currently on 10.6.8, but I can't find a way to update to 10.7. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

what is the fix? I need help!
