Before buying anything you should first make sure your machine will accept the upgrade you have in mind.


Minimum specs for Snow Leopard. Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard -Read the Technical Specifications


Note. You can now buy Snow Leopard from the Apple store on line again.


In the USA. Go to Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.)


In Europe or otherwise … call your National Apple Helpline. Find it at … http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57


In the UK … Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (UK) Where the last known price was £14.


Before you start upgrading, back up your files.


Once you have upgraded to Snow Leopard you will need to apply the Combo updater. Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 and follow with a software update to pick up any later improvements.

Upgrading to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x


It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.


Do this first...


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

If so... Purchase a Snow Leopard Install 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...
