We have an older Macbook we are using for a temporary work computer. We need to access a certain website. The website requires that we upgrade Safari. We tried to upgrade Safari. Safari said we have to update our OS X to at least Snow Leopard or Lion, before we can upgrade Safari. We purchased Lion. The email said to go download the file using your redemption code. We opened iTunes, the only want to buy software in OS X 10.5.8 that I am aware. It said 'This code must be redeemed in the MAC app store'. We went to the web page for the Mac App Store. It said we must have OS X 6 or higher to have the Mac Apple Store! %&#$!

To enable the Mac App Store, Snow Leopard users will need to update to Mac OS X 10.6.6, either by using the Mac’s built-in Software Update or via a download from Apple’s Website.
Any ideas? I've considering putting my fist through the monitor but I don't know if that will work.

Apple didn’t introduce the App Store into Mac OS X until Snow Leopard 10.6.6. Here’s what you need to do to get the App Store. You can find out what OS X version you are on by clicking on the Apple icon, then select “About This Mac”. The number under the Apple logo is the version you are on. 10.5.x is Leopard and 10.6.x is Snow Leopard.

3. This will launch the Software Update dialog. Once the dialog completely loads, look for an item called “Mac OS X Update Combined”. That is the OS X update that includes the App Store, so go ahead and install that. It took about 30 minutes for me.
4. After the install is complete click on the Apple icon in the top left corner of your screen. You should now see the “App Store…” menu item. If you don’t then repeat steps 2 and 3 above until you do. If you still don’t see it then just give Apple a call at 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or stop by your nearest Apple store.
If you want to see what version you currently have installed then click the Apple icon then click the “About This Mac” menu item. That will pop up a dialog like the one below. The number below the Apple icon is the version number of the Mac OS X you have installed. Like I mentioned above, it must be 10.6.6 in order to get the App Store.
