Safari out of date but can't get update.

Every time I visit a website it tells me my browser is out of date (Safari 5). But I use auto update and when I manually go to software updates, it searches then tells me everything is up to date. How do I get latest version of safari?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

You need to upgrade the computer's OS. Open the Mac App Store and try downloading Yosemite. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.

Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility before upgrading. In particular, Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.
