- Dec 03 iMac, 1.25GHz G4 proccessor, 120GB Hard Drive, 1Gb DDR SDRAM, OSX 10.3.9 Panther
Hi Everybody,
I have an iMac, purchased in December 2003, with a 1.25GHz G4 proccessor and a 120GB Hard Drive; it also now has 1Gb DDR SDRAM, it was supplied with OSX Panther and I have applied all the on line updates to get me to version 10.3.9.
I want to upgrade to the latest version of iTunes but now apparently need to upgrade my operating system to support this.
I understand that OSX has moved up from 10.3 Panther through 10.4 Tiger and 10.5 Leopard and is now at 10.6 Snow Leopard.
When I asked about upgrading last year on the forum (when 10.5 Leopard was the latest thing) I was told I could just buy the newest software and it would allow me to upgrade right through.
I have recently bought Snow Leopard (10.6) but the install programme fails to run on my 10.3.9 machine; does anybody know what I need to do to fix this; I will buy the earlier versions (10.4 and 10.5) if I must; but before I do that I really need to know if that is the correct technical solution.
If there is anybody out there who knows the answer to this/has experienced this I would be very pleased to hear about it
Regards
