Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.

If it's a PowerPC Mac, switch to a product such as TenFourFox.

If it's a Core Duo Mac, clickhere, install the DVD, and run Software Update; if you stay on 10.6.8, you'll probably need to use a different web browser.

If it's a Core 2 Duo or better Mac, upgrade it as if it was a Core Duo Mac, and once done, if desired, open the Mac App Store and try downloading Yosemite. If you get told it's incompatible, go to the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.

Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC software such as Microsoft Office 2004. If you upgrade the OS, back up the computer first.
