Their code names will be referred to when the info apply to all versions of those systems

As of last writing of this tip, the only available upgrades to 10.6.6 are 10.6.7, 10.6.8, 10.7, and you can take 10.7 up to 10.7.5 Combo, Supplemental update, and 10.7.5 Security Update 2014-004 followed by 10.7.5 Bash update.

The only Snow Leopard compatible Mac that is compatible also with Mojave is the Mac Pro 5,1 with specific graphics cards. Look at the Mojave tip for more information. There are no Catalina (Mac OS 10.15) compatible Macs also compatible with Snow Leopard.

While you may need 10.7.5 to upgrade to Sierra, and 10.8 to High Sierra, a few Macs which shipped new with 10.6.1 or later, may be updated to 10.7, then 10.7.5 to get to Sierra, or 10.8 to High Sierra. This tip below discusses how to upgrade from 10.4.4 through 10.6.8 to 10.7 or later.

10.8 can be taken up to 10.8.5. 10.9, and 10.10 are not available anymore from the App Store unless you previously purchased it or your Mac shipped with it, however their free updates are still available.10.9 can be taken to 10.9.5, 10.10 to 10.10.5, and 10.11 to 10.11.6.

10.6.8 can be taken to 10.11, but not without following the guidelines below to assure compatibility.

If you find you are compatible only with those operating systems, you may be able to discuss with App Store or AppleCare to get those available for you. First though continue reading this tip as you may not be able to get past 10.6.8 without jumping through many hoops. Note if you update to 10.11, iPhoto and certain printer and scanner drivers may no longer be available.

Rosetta, the application you never knew you had, is gone starting with Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, Yosemite, El Capitan, and Sierra all lack it).

It is not in any shape or form related to the language translation teaching tool by the same name.

It is the background program that lets Intel Macs run applications written for Mac OS X at a timewhen PowerPC Macs were the only thing around (before 2006). It is no longer there to enable their ability to run when you upgrade to the newer systems.It also means that programs with older installer programs may need updating as well, so verify the system requirements do not lackMac OS X 10.7 or later, or drag their installer program into the Applications folder to verify they aren't for PowerPC only.

You'll see later how to determine that with the System Profiler program.

Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac to determine exactly what you have. Alternatively:See https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6413 to identify your Mac.See https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2295 if migrating data from a PowerPC Mac to an Intel Mac.

G3 without USB is maxed at 10.2.8, except for the Powerbook G3 250 original Powerbook G3 (also known as Kanga), which could onlybe updated to Mac OS 9.1 (not to be confused with Mac OS X 10.9.1, which is 13 years newer).G3 without Firewire, but with USB are maxed at 10.3.9, except the Powerbook G3 Lombard (Bronze Keyboard) which may have CPU specific issues that limitits upgradeability at all.G3 or G4 of 800 Mhz or less with Firewire are maxed at 10.4.11.PowerPC Macs G4 867 Mhz (on single processor) and above (1 Ghz or higher included), and G5s can upgrade only to Mac OS X 10.5.8, and only support for syncing with iOS 5.x devices and earlier.Intel CoreSolo and Intel CoreDuo can upgrade only to Mac OS X 10.6.8 if they have at least 1 GB of RAM (768 MB is less). This does offer for anyone in the position compatibility with PowerPC applications that don't require drivers, and the latest Adobe Flash support as of May 14, 2014, and support for syncing with iOS 7 devices. For more on iOS support and Mac OS X syncing, see this tip:iTunes/Mac OS/iOS compatibility

Intel Core2Duo and XEON and later (Core i3, i5, i7 are all later models) may be able to go 10.4.4 to 10.6 to 10.6.8 to 10.9 to 10.9.2, or even up to 10.10 and 10.11 (skipping 10.5 to 10.5.8 altogether, and 10.7 to 1
