[QUOTE="Appleboy, post: 843397, member: 84135"] Hi, I have just recently started to use my eMac again after a few years and need some advice about upgrading things. My current system is OSX 10.3.9 (panther? i think?) and I am also using Safari 1.3.2. Anyway I have run into a few problems doing things online, as I have an old operating system and browser. I have been told that I should upgrade to Tiger (10.4.11) or Leopard (10.5.5) and also at least Safari 2.0 or later (3.2.1). I am wondering if anyone can tell me: a) How to upgrade these things and b) If there would be any problems doing so? For example will all the stuff I currently have on my hard drive still be ok, during/after the upgrade? The only constraints I have are that I am very rusty with using all this stuff (hence asking in here) and I'm broke (so need to do whatever works out to be cheapest/best at the current time). Thanks in advance ;) [/QUOTE]
