Question

my macbook from 2009 wont let me use any of my downloads.

after downloading any application i would try to use( open it) but instead it would just say you can not use this version of this application with your version of mac os x.

and to you guys a heads-up my macbook version is 10.5.8 so does that mean i havet to update the computer to snow leopard 10.6 to fix the downloading problems?

and if you guys still dont understand me clearly i can shoot a video of whats wrong with my computer.

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

Hi, no video needed, it sounds like you've guessed the answer, but a link to the exact application(s) would be helpful, most Apps thses days don't support 10.5

Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...

General requirements

* Mac computer with an Intel processor

* 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)

* 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)

* DVD drive for installation

* Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.

* Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.

Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
