A few months back I inherited my sister's old MacBook. It's a MacBook 4,1, which she bought at least four years ago, maybe 5. When she upgraded a year ago she gave it to my daughter, who then upgraded to brand new Windows laptop this summer. As mom, I get the hand-me-downs, and since my other box is a netbook, this was nice.
And then yesterday Chrome updated to v22, and no longer supports OS X 10.5. Which is what I'm running. We also discovered yesterday that my daughter's new iPod, which my mother had won online and given to her since she didn't need it, won't talk to Leopard either.
So it's off the Apple support sites and stuff to see what to do. Thankfully, I am by no means the only person running Leopard right now, so there were lots of questions, and even more important, lots of answers.
I have a copy of Snow Leopard on order for a whopping $19.99 + tax. The problem a lot of folks had been having is that you can't get it in the online store, but thankfully one commenter said it was available by phone.
So here's hoping that within the week my box will be running better, and my daughter can get stuff onto her iPod.
