The first step in Upgrading... is to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x

Do this first...
Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...

If so Contact Apple in your Country to Purchase a Snow Leopard Disc...

After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...
