    Help setting up 'new' MacBook Pro (2015)

    I have just purchased a second-hand 2015 MacBook Pro, 13". Although old now, I plan to run Mojave on it for my wife. But I am having trouble getting it set up. It was on running on Monterey so I planned to reinstall the original operating system it shipped with - Yosemite - and then 'upgrade'...

    Monterey crashed my MacBook. How do I recover it back to Catalina?

    After updating to Monterey, my 2015 MBP slowly started getting a little sluggish until it completely collapsed a few days later. Now I have this blinking folder icon every time I boot it up. I tried going through the recovery process, but it defaults to installing the very first macOS that...

    Java 17 for 10.8, 10.9, 10.10, and 10.11 & Java 11 for 10.6-10.11 (JDK)

    Hello everyone, After a lot of trial and error and many patches, I have finally gotten the Java 17 JDK compiling properly for OS X 10.8-10.11 and the Java 11 JDK compiling for OS X 10.6-10.11. These operating systems have not run a modern version of Java for quite a while, so this should be...

    MP 6,1 Monterey + Yosemite Dual Boot on Mac Pro (Late 2013)

    I'm currently running a late 2013 Mac Pro that I've been holding back on upgrading. My 1TB Apple SSD is split into two HFS+ partitions, one Yosemite and one High Sierra. I'd like to reformat the High Sierra partition as APFS and install Monterey on it, while keeping the Yosemite partition intact...

    IMac IOS re-install

    Hi, I have an IMac Model A1224. I'm needing to re-install Yosemite on it. Apparently this model which I believe is 2010 doesn't have the option for the internet restore. I tried booting it from a USB stuck but it's not recognizing the stick. I even put the OS on a DVD but it doesn't want to...

    Upgrading hardware + OS on 2012 13" MBP

    Is this upgrade-able ? My cousin uses it mainly for using Audacity for editing dance songs etc. And then basic photo sharing stuff etc. She would upgrade to M1/M2 if and only if the 2012 model is totally no longer capable for her personal work anymore. 1. 4BG RAM to 16GB RAM ? 2. HDD to SSD ...

    Upgrading old late 2012 iMac to SSD

    I have an old iMac that I never used for quite a while and have recently been using it quite a bit more throughout my countries 'lockdown' period. I wanted to upgrade it to a new OS (Catalina) as it's currently running OSX Yosemite. After reading online about performance (I have an old 5400rpm...

    Anybody running iTunes 10.7 on High Sierra?

    I never gave up on iTunes 10.7 and got it to work on Yosemite, El Capitan, Sierra and High Sierra without losing Mac App Store’s (MAS) functionality. Might also work on Mojave (but I haven’t tested it yet). Here are the steps I follow to revert iTunes 12 to 10.7...

    Yosemite VS El Capitan on mid-2009 Macbook Pro

    Hi! My main computer is a 2017 iMac but as a secondary computer I have an old Macbook Pro 15-inch (Mid-2009) with 8Gb of RAM and 500Gb Samsung SSD. Just replaced the Superdrive with a new one because it broke a year ago. I have this computer still with Yosemite, because I haven't got the need to...

    How to install Mojave on an HFS+ volume

    I searched for this, and couldn't really find a related thread, just a bunch of people having a lot of issues with Mojave that really scare me! I've got an early 2015 MacBook Air running Yosemite. I have not "upgraded" until now because of audio hardware and software compatibility issues. I'm...

    El Capitan/Yosemite on 256MB of VRAM

    Hey, So, I'm thinking of investing in a 3, 1 Mac Pro, with a Radeon 2600 XT. It has 256MB of GDDR4 VRAM, and I was wondering if it would run on Yosemite or El Capitan. I'll definitely upgrade the Graphics Card to something better down the line, like a Quadro 4000, as I'm into video/ graphical...

    MacBook Pro failure or SSD failure?

    Hi, The other day I upgraded my MacBook Pro 2011 (with an SSD) from Yosemite to High Sierra, it rendered it unusable. I attempted to do a clean install but it kept falling or stopping. I've now reinstalled Snow Leopard from the DVD that came with the MacBook (this took 17hrs). Again it's...

    iPhoto broken by iTunes 12.8.1 on Yosemite

    I'm using a mid 2102 MBP with SSD running Yosemite. I learned yesterday that the latest iTunes update 12.8.1 breaks Safari when running Yosemite. This I fixed by removing a framework file as has been recommended on various forums but the same issue occurs with iPhoto. I know I should have...

    Possible to create a dual boot drive with Yosemite and High Sierra?

    I'm running Yosemite and hope to stay with it as long as possible. However, I know at some point I'll have to move forward, and I haven't downloaded any interim versions of macOS, so I'm thinking I'd better get High Sierra before things get too nuts and my hardware isn't supported anymore. I'm...

    What's the easiest way to upgrade my Restore Partition to Yosemite?

    I recently had a major disaster with Clean.app that removed language files and corrupted my system. The Finder, Spotlight, Terminal.app and everything else I needed to do repairs was broken. I had to go guerrilla because all I had was a G5 with a working OS (Leopard), but it couldn't connect to...
