On August 2, 2016, Firefox 48.0 was released. It is scheduled to be replaced by Firefox 49.0 on September 13, 2016. At that point, Mac users using OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, 10.7 Lion, and 10.8 Mountain Lion will be left behind by the current versions of Firefox. It will be a sad day, as Firefox is the last major browser to support Mac OS X 10.6 through 10.8.

But it’s not all bad news. Firefox has given us Mac support longer than Google’s Chrome browser, which left us behind in April 2016. And in comparison to Apple’s Safari browser, Chrome and Firefox have been downright generous. Safari 5.1.10 was the last version for OS X 10.6, and that arrived on September 12, 2013. Safari 6.1.6, the final revision for OS X 10.7, was unleashed on August 13, 2014, and 6.2.8, the last version for OS X 10.8, a year later on August 13, 2015.

Because you have OS X 10.5.8 (Leopard) currently, and assuming that you never downgraded your OS X, you can narrow down which iMac model you have. Since 10.6 (Snow Leopard) came out in August 2009, and since Unibody iMac see 1st link in your question was released in October 2009, it can be assumed that you don't have a Unibody iMac.

Chrome gave Snow Leopard users 2-1/2 years more support than Apple did, Lion users 20 months more, and Mountain Lion 8 months. When Firefox 49.0 arrives, Snow Leopard users will have had 3 years more support by Firefox than Safari gave them. Lion users, 25 months, and Mountain Lion holdouts, 13 months.

He has Mac OS X version 10.5.8. When we tried to upgrade it the OS reported that there are no updates available. We googled around to find alternative ways of upgrading the system - 3-4 different clicking paths all leading to the same system update program - but with same outcome.

Outdated Does Not Mean Obsolete

Fear mongers will insist on running the latest version of browser on a fully up-to-date operating system with the belief that anything else puts you at risk. The truth is, there are unknown risks in the latest software. You can never be 100% secure.

However, you can be very productive with older operating systems, applications, and browsers. Just because some new piece of software requires a newer OS version is no reason to upgrade – unless it gives you a feature you really need to have. I have been happily working with OS X 10.6 on my 2007 Mac mini for years. I use Safari, Chrome, and Firefox daily on it, and only one of them is current – and not for much longer.

Then again, OS X Snow Leopard itself is far from current, yet it allows me to run lots of software and be very productive. I don’t find it limiting at all to use outdated software with an outdated operating system on a discontinued computer that will never run OS X 10.8 or newer. It’s good enough for what I need it to do.

Honestly, that’s the whole point of Low End Mac. You can be productive even if you can’t run the latest Mac OS and browser. After all, there was a time when they had nothing newer to use, and they were productive then.

The Real World

Security experts will count out hundreds or thousands of security issues with whatever you’re doing on your computer, and none of it matters until someone targets that issue in a way that reaches your machine. That’s the real world. Theoretical security problems are not real until they become exploits, and even then the problem might never reach your system if you’re not downloading apps from unreliable sources.

ROBLOX puts great effort into developing unified code that runs across multiple platforms — PC, Mac and soon iPad — on a wide variety of hardware and software configurations. This summer, as we ratcheted up development efforts for ROBLOX on mobile devices and tablets, we found the software we use to compile our code was only compatible with either Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) or mobile devices. We were faced with a tough decision: maintain a separate code base for OS X 10.5 or discontinue support for it.

In the interest of unified code, fast updates and future expansion to more platforms, we have opted to discontinue support for OS X 10.5. The change will take effect in the next two weeks.

OS X 10.5 users will still be able to browse Roblox.com and participate in all web-based features. Our analytics show less than 1% of ROBLOX players use OS X 10.5. If this change affects you and you’d like to continue playing and building games, we recommend you update your Mac’s operating system to at least OS X 10.6.

We want to make sure all ROBLOX users on OS X 10.5 have the option of continuing to play and build. We’ve contacted Apple, and the easiest update path is to call and purchase the latest operating system update on physical media. They will also be able to tell you whether your system can handle a more recent version of OS X.

Q. Why is ROBLOX discontinuing support for Mac OS X 10.5?

A. We would have to maintain a separate code base for Mac OS X 10.5 because the software we use to compile code for OS X 10.5 is not compatible with that of mobile devices. At this time, we are prioritizing a unified code base and development of ROBLOX for mobile devices.

It’s worth noting that Apple no longer supports OS X 10.5, nor do many common desktop applications, like Chrome and Firefox.

Q: I have a Mac. How can I tell if I’m running Mac OS X 10.5?

A: Go to the Apple Menu, then click About this Mac. If it says less than “Version 10.6”, you will need to upgrade to keep playing and building in ROBLOX.

Q. How can I update my Mac to keep playing ROBLOX?

A. You can call Apple direct at 1 800 MY APPLE to purchase an OS X update, delivered via physical media. They will tell you whether your system can handle the latest Mac operating system, OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.

Q. Can I still browse Roblox.com on Mac OS X 10.5?

A. Yes. You can continue to browse the website and participate in all our social and economy features.
