    Downgrade Big Sur from 11.1b1 to 11.01 on another disk or volume

    I need to do some comparison testing of an app on 11.1b1 (installed on my MacBook Pro M1) vs 11.0.1 release. Alas I upgraded before installing another partition or disk with the release version.

    How to get OS X El Capitan on a MacBookAir1,1?

    Hey guys! So I've tried searching for ways to do this but they haven't worked out. For example, every time I use MacPostFactor, it just gives me an error.

    Automatic App Updates Reliable Yet?

    Like a lot of people, my parents never think to open the App Store to update their apps, and with the recent redesign to the way app updates are accessed, I'm sure they wouldn't even know where to look for them.

    HELP! Mojave install has screwed up my Mac!

    Just installed Mojave on an older system that had been running El Capitan. So many problems now: 1) Every time I restart the computer it goes through the Mojave "Setting Up Your Mac" screens that normally only appear right after an install and therefore a lot of changes I've made get reset. 2)...
