Hi All, I figured I would run the Apple hardware Test on my 2012 12core 3.06 gig Mac Pro running 10.10.4, and it simply won't go into that mode. When I hold down the "D" key it pauses for a long while on a white screen, but eventually goes to my desktop. Tried "Option D" as well, same thing. Any ideas?
Got a tip for us?

Cant Use AHT Diagnostic Mode

Its because your OSX 10.10.4 is not upgraded from the stock OSX (10.7 or 10.8?).
If you did a clean install, the AHT will not avail anymore, unless you have the original installation disc or you manually put the AHT system flie back into the place (https://github.com/upekkha/AppleHardwareTest).

Thanks. This worked perfect! Just had to unhide files so I could move the diagnostic folder into Coreservices. Thanks. I'll hang onto this.
Okay, I can't seem to get the terminal command down pat. How do I copy the expanded file from my download directory to the target.

Yeah, no problem showing the files, it's just that the System Folder permissions don't allow copying anything so I can't do it with finder.
It has to be in the terminal as in;
sudo cp ~/source file /target file
I just can't make it happen today. I need a senior nap I think...
