upgrading proessor

Dear all

Please help....I'm new to having a mac and have obtained a second hand iMac 4.1 with an intel core duo and a speed of 1.83GHz

I am struggling getting iCloud onto the computer to be able to look at my calendar and e-mails etc but also to be able to use for messenger and so forth.

Can anyone please advise me what I can do? and how I can get iCloud among many other things on my iMac. I can't even upgrade it to OS X Mountain Lion (I'm running Mac OS X version 10.6.8).

Any help you can give me would be deeply appreciated. I don't know much about Macs so anything in laymans terms would be great.

Many thanks

iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

No worries - thank you for all your help. You have no idea how much I'm struggling with an iMac......iPad and iPhone no worries. iMac seems to be a totally different kettle of fish

It will be as easy as your iPhone and iPad. Just give it time to explore Mac OS X. OS X Lion and Mountain Lion are more similar to the iPhone and the iPad operating system, but Snow Leopard will be easy for you. Enjoy it
