Someone noted:
"Yep, just bought my copy, for old time's sake.
Unfortunately, it's w
10.6.3 and no later; Apple stopped making the discs
available for retail after that, and the only way to get the latest
version is if it came with a particular Mac. (Insert rant about Apple
locking its media to specific Macs here.)"
Me.
If in the top menu it no longer has a software update choice do this. In
terminal run this command:
softwareupdate -l
It takes a few seconds and then lists all those software applications
available for update based on your current installation.
In times past in sl this would include sl updates.
I run sl 10.6.8 I think it is, whatever the last one was. I just checked,
the command still produces applications I can update. That is how
starting with an older version I gradually got each sl update as it was
available.
Do the command again with a -h in place of the -l. This will list those
which will allow installing the applications of choice or all of them.
Do the man for this command for more detail.
