I’ll start off with saying I’m a new MacBook user. I purchased this MacBook online for just $20 it needed a charger & battery, so I bought a charger & I’m currently running it with just that. So in order for me to use it, it must be plugged in. But because I know this system is so old I would like to know how I can upgrade to a newer version as iTunes wont allow me to log in for some reason. (I can log in the the App Store) it’s currently running 10.6.8.. I have found a download link to install El Capitan so it’s currently trying to install. I won’t be using it much but it’s nice to know it’s there if I ever needed it. TIA UPDATE Installing El Capitan did not work
Sadly, the highest version of OS you can run is OS-X Lion 10.7.5. Due to the age of the system its very limited. Apple does not offer any security updates for the OS so its risky to use online it’s also so not able to run the newer HTML code most web sites are using today. The older versions of iTunes can still be gotten! iApple Download server - Tunes 10.6.3Take a look here for other files: Apple Downloads You do want to replace the battery if it is unable to hold a charge, iFixit still has a few MacBook Battery these older Li-ION batts are limited to 300 cycles, most don’t even get that far 250 is the best I’ve seen Determine battery cycle count for Mac notebooks.
