Some people can get confused about update and upgrade when it comes to Mac OSX.
10.6.(any #) is still Snow Leopard. 10.7.(any #) is Lion. Are you wanting to upgrade to Lion or simply update Snow Leopard? If it's just a matter of updating to the latest version of SL (10.6.8), you'll want to back everything up as a precaution and then run Software Update on your Mac. It's free and won't have any affect on your current installed apps.
hi, my mac is on 10.6.6 and i want to update to 10.6.8 so i can later upgrade to later versions, however when i select the software update, it tells me that there are no new updates available. We've been stuck on 10.6.6 for years now since we werent able to utilize this mac completely. We've attempted updating before but it never really worked since it keeps on freezing. thank you. i hope we will be able to fix this. from my research it seems my mac is still compatible with the newer softwares
