Q: Is it possible to change my computer from  OX10.6.8 to 10.7

I tried to download Turbo Tax and can't because I need OX 10.7 and have OX 10.6.8

What can I do to get the 10.7?

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.5.7)

    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.
