Can I upgrade to Mountain Lion with this Mac?

No, you cannot upgrade this to ML. ML requires a 2009 MB or newer. This one does not meet those requirements.

yes you can but.... it'll take some effort on your part. you'll need to upgrade the RAM to a minimum of 2GB. once that's done it will install. getting the installer for ML might be a bit tough but it will do it.

Technically, the previous poster is correct. If you try to download and install Mountain Lion from the App Store, it will not run, as this model is unsupported. With a bit of work, however, you can run Mountain Lion on these models. I had given a detailed answer to someone who received an error when trying to install Mountain Lion earlier; please read that for more details, or leave a comment, and I'll explain how to upgrade for you as well.

Snow Leopard and Mountain Lion require an Intel processor. You can get details at the Apple website.

Yes, just make sure that you update to OSX Lion. This specific laptop may be slow,but here are the requirements Mac Systems Computer: Avid-qualified Apple computer (see details) System Software (32 or 64-bit) Mac OS X 10.6.7 (Snow Leopard) through 10.7.4 (Lion) Total System RAM: 4GB minimum, 8GB (or more) recommended

You can update the hard drive but unfortunately you will be locked on the leopard OS 10.5 because everything from snow leopard on is intel processor only and you can't update the processor. I hope that helps.

I do not know. I stopped using it when it refused to work with Apple's "Mountain Lion".

Yes. Free upgrade installation video walkthroughs and cheap tools are available on macsales.com link to my resource: "http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/iMac/Intel_Core_2_Duo_PC2-6400"

As long if your applications will run in OS/X Mountain Lion. Make sure you have all the inputs needed.

Lion was introduced in 2011, Mountain Lion 2012, Mavericks 2013, and this year Yosemite. but the upgrade to Mavericks is completely free if the laptop hasn't already been upgraded

I'm not sure either, because the system requirements are Windows XP, Vista Service Pack 2, and Windows 7. Doesn't mention anything about Mac OSx. You could try.

I don't know, I'm still using Mountain Lion, but I would assume it would work for your Mac regardless of which operating system you use.

As far as I know Mac books can not be upgraded with after market products. You pretty much have to buy a new Mac book or Apple services to upgrade if you computer is out of date.

I do not believe so. I have been told by one of the owners at Studio Center Miami not to upgrade to Yosemite. He said it would screw things up. I am running Mountain Lion with PT-10.

Bought mine at Best Buy two weeks ago and it also had Snow Leopard. Updated all software and contacted apple for the free upgrade that they all are eligible for. They sent me a code a day later and was able to download off the app store in 3 hrs and another half to install. It's up and running now with Lion.A different keyboard would be nice but its a great machine, why wait?

If Snow Leopard comes as 10.6.3 it will automatically upgrade to 10.6.8. It's very cheap, even from Apple (only $20): http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard. Snow Leopard is a very stable system and you will enjoy using it (as long as you have enough RAM -- at least 2GB, but preferably 4GB.

You are welcome! My advice: buy $29 disk of Snow Leopard OSX 10.6, and go online and keep upgrading the system software to 10.6.8. Stop there. OS 10.6.8 is the most stable OS Apple ever created. Mavericks and Yosemite are awful. MB404LL/A loves OS 10.6.8.

Yes, you can load Snow Leopard or just about any Mac OS. On Oct. 29 I upgraded my Mac Mini to Mavericks
