Updates vs Upgrades

I have software Mac OS X 10.5.8 on my IMac with Intel Core, and 10.5.8 on my Mac Book Pro. I can't do any IPad mini or ITunes updates because I am told to download "updates". However, both of my computers tell me I am up to date. Should I buy the upgrade Leopard?

Mac OS X (10.5.8)

The first step in Upgrading... is 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...


Snow Leopard Tech Specs

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...
