To update PHP on OSX you can get the PHP executable through a number of Mac [package managers][mac-package-managers] or [compile it yourself][mac-compile] (if compiling, be sure to have installed either Xcode or Apple's substitute ["Command Line Tools for Xcode" downloadable from Apple's Mac Developer Center][apple-developer]).
