OSX 10.5.8 internet/ websites not working on MacBook Pro a1260
My MacBook is still running on OSX 10.5.8 because I was afraid if I upgraded to a newer OSX I’d lose my entire CS5 Adobe Suite ( I got all 20 programs installed 8 years ago for free & don’t have the money to pay for the online CC) Problem now is that pretty much all internet websites are not loading on MacBook Pro with the exception of google search.
SO.. will upgrading to 10.6 erase my CS5 suite? And is upgrading even possible at this point? It seems I have to upgrade to Snow Leopard first no matter what. Then i’m not sure where to go from there, if I have to pay again for each OS or if the uogrades from there out are free AND if my computer and Adobe programs can even support the newer OS??
thank you!
Esta é uma boa pergunta?

Here's your series specs A1260
El Capitan OS-X 10.11.x is the newest OS-X your system will run.
How are you connecting to the internet? Using a WiFi connection or using Ethernet connection? I would try the Ethernet connection.

Oh interesting to know, well I have to buy 10.6 apparently to even upgrade at all. Then once I have that, I can get upgrade to El Capitan for free right?

Sadly yes, Apple gets you here. If you have a friend they may have it.
Now you do have a wrinkle here! The certificates these older OS installers have long since expired! So you'll need to alter your systems date back to the time point the installer was workable for the certificate check to pass.
Here's a bit more on that If you've got an old macOS install image, it will probably stop working today

@danj FYI Am working on a 2010 iMac and trying g to install High Sierra. Tried several copies of the install and they all told me they were damaged. I turned off my wi-fi, ran the clock back two years and am having no problems with the install (another screw U deal from Apple).

@mayer - Yes! Apple does its best to convince you to upgrade your hardware! And if you're happy with what you have, making dam-hard to even fix your older OS.
