how can i upgrade from 10.5.8 to 10.8

Answer
Not directly.
You'll first have to update from 10.5.8 to 10.6.8 in order to have the App Store feature. It's the only way to download 10.8 Mountain Lion.
Next, you need to make sure your system supports the minimum requirements. Look at this document for default (remove the spaces): http: //www. apple. com/ osx/ specs/- Answered by Bernard D from Rosemere

Best Answer
Yes, of course!
If you are using the USB-to-Lightning cable that came with your new iPad Mini, you will have no problem syncing photos from your PC (or Mac). Just make sure you install iTunes on your computer first, it's free, and secure.
Feel free to ask if you need detailed instructions!

Answer
Well... Since the Macbook Pro's and the New iMac's do not have a CD-ROM drive you have to purchase one... I would suggest getting the Apple Superdrive... Brand does not matter though.. any one would work

macbook air or macbook pro
Hi,
I'm a developer, right now I've a macbook pro 13" 2009 (C2C 2,53GHz 4Go of RAM). And I want to replace my computer. I really fall in love with the 13" macbook air.
The question is: should I buy a Macbook pro 13" or a Macbook air 13"?
Basically I just do a lot of terminal, xcode and eclipse. Also a bit of Photoshop..
I don't know if the macbook air could handle that.. ( even if my MBP 2009 do that).
And the next question is: Is there a difference between 4Go of Ram and 8Go?
Thanks!- Asked by Guillaume L

Hi there,
If you're worried about portability and a lightweight Apple laptop, definitely go for the MacBook Air, it is still a very powerful computer. I'm pretty sure the Air is more than capable of running Terminal and Xcode, and if you're only running Photoshop sometimes, the Air will be fine for you. But if you're heavily using Photoshop, I think the Pro might be better, it gives me the impression it is a little bit more robust machine than the Air. My recommendation is to go to an Apple Store or a reseller's store and try out the two computers.
For the RAM, I don't think 4GB of extra memory will make much of a difference. I'm pretty sure the 4GB should be okay for you.
I hope this helps!- Answered by Walter K from Ottawa

13 inch Air vs 13 inch Retina - Daily use and Gaming
Hey everyone,
Currently in the market for my first Mac, and having the internal debate about which laptop to pull the trigger on.
Debating between the 13 inch Air w 8Gb ram(maybe upgrade the processor) and the base MacBook Retina 13.
I'm looking for portability, daily surfing, gaming specifically Blizzard products (Diablo 3, StarCraft 3, and WoW), maybe the occasional video/photo edit to take advantage of the features of a Mac.
Reading all the different forums, some say the gaming aspects will be fine on the air(on low graphics), some say it won't... Same can be said of the Retina 13... I can't personally justify the 15 Retina although its SO nice...
Just wanted to get some feedback from some of the experts out there :)
Appreciate the help!- Asked by Scott M from Oakville

I have a mid 2009 13" MacBook Pro running a 2.53 Intel Core 2 Duo with 8 GB of ram, and it is my daily use computer (by choice over a Dell workstation). I am in the Printing industry and I use both the current Adobe CS6 (Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, etc...) as well as CAD software.
On my off time, I also Play WOW (Mists of Pandaria) and Diablo 3. Both have to have their resolution turned way down to be playable.
If I were in the market today, I would pay the little extra and get the
15-inch: 2.6GHz, MacBook Pro. It's only $200 more than the retna display 13" MacBook Pro, but it has a 1GB dedicated video card + the 256 shared card. The retna display is nice, but there are only a handful of programs that can take advantage of if at this time. Just my $0.02, so take it as you will.- Answered by Travis L from Fairbanks

256gb vs 512gb for student and gamer
I'm a high school student looking to buy a 15" rMBP for use throughout the last half of high school and all of college. I would use the laptop to play video games occasionally but I don't plan on having too many downloaded at once. Also I download a little music, but I never download movies or tv shows. I still can't decide whether 256gb will be a large enough hard drive or if I should upgrade it to 512gb. Please help?
