• How to uninstall El Capitan and replaces it with clone of Snow Leopard?

  I had a chance terrible execution El Capitan, including in connection with CS5. It takes (literally) 10 x more time to save a .tiff file in El Capitan, than that of Snow Leopard. I suspect much too many processes running in the background, which most is probably not necessary, but I don't know that for sure. Something is not.

  I have a clone perfect my Snow Leopard former plant and wonder if that can just be installed right on El Capitan, as when we do an update of the operating system, or do I have to erase the whole score first, then install clone?

  (I know, I'll then have browser problems, but...)

  Hi CFS88,

  Thanks for joining the communities Support from Apple. I see your message you need to restore your operating system Snow Leopard of El Capitan. I'm happy to help you!

  To install Snow Leopard on your system, you will need to use a snow leopard install DVD or disc of original installation if your Mac comes with Snow Leopard originally. Once you insert the disc, press and hold the C button it restarts and restart your Mac. This will allow you to boot from the installation disc. From there, you can use disk utility to wipe your drive and reinstall OS X. Once installation is complete, you can choose your preferred option to migrate your data to your Mac using the installation wizard.

  If you use Time Machine, you can restore from a backup Time Machine with installed thus 10.6:

  See you soon!

• I need some advice on how to upgrade my MBP mid 2010 HDD to SDS without using clone software

  Unfortunately, I had resisted the upgrade of the OS and kept my Snow Leopard running for a few weeks when the incompatibility of the various things became a nuisance I took the plunge and upgraded to OS El Capitan. That pretty much killed my hard drive. It kept failing good start and eventually when it did, no matter what function took forever to action. I took it to the Genius Bar and after a few tests it came with hard drive failure. In accordance with the notice given to me - I was told I should buy a Samsung EVO 850 and it would take me 10 minutes to install and simply use time machine to move my data.

  I can happily work on people, but the machines seem to much more complex.

  I decided to do a little reading and now am a little stuck and confused as clearly this is not so simple.

  I have a SATA cable / USB. I think I know how to mount the SSD with the SATA connection format and then fresh install OS El Capitan.

  The thing to note is that my MBP has been an erratic behavior of 2-3 years with gel and episodes of kernel errors and downtime. I thought previously, it had something to do with an external application - google chrome and got rid of this to use Opera instead. He made much less frequent mistakes but nevertheless still occurred.

  For this reason, it does not seem logical to use clone apps (although much would have made life easier) and I need to somehow this the long way round... or so I think, but please correct me if wrong.

  I have a Time Machine backup before I upgraded my OS, and before you try anything, I'll do another then its judgment the new OS.

  My questions are:

  1. after formatting my SSD, I should make a partition?

  2. is it acceptable for then simply drag a copy of the OS El Cap to the SSD and run hopefully leading to installation?

  3. What is the best way to migrate my data?

  Note that I'm not a tech savvy person, have never done anything like this before and its taken me weeks to reach these conclusions to date.

  With step by step instructions all tips are welcome.

  Thank you.

  Create partitions first, then format each partition.

  I think you need to create a USB flash drive install and then boot from the flash drive and go launched the installation process.

• Clone HD on SSD (Imac mid-2011)

  Hi, I have an iMac mid-2011 with 1 TB of hard drive and I'll install a SSD 1 TB as a second drive. I think I will clone the HD on the SSD with Carbon Copy Cloner. My question is: can do the clone operation after installing the SSD inside the iMac to speed up the process or I clone the HD before the opening of the iMac with the SSD connected via USB? I have only USB 2.0, I think is going to be very slow in this way... Thank you, Francesco

  Install the internal SSD if that's your plan. Start the computer from the HARD disk, and then use disk utility to partition and format the SSD drive as follows:

  Clone El Capitan on a new disc

  1. Restart the computer. Immediately after the chime, press Command - R until the Apple logo and progress bar appear.
  2. When the Utility Menu appears, select disk utility and click on the continue button.
  3. When disk utility loads select the SSD (generally, the entry Out-bumpy) in the list aside.
  4. Click the Partition tab in the main window of disk utility. A panel will fall.
  5. Set the GUID partition scheme.
  6. Define the type of Format Mac OS extended (journaled).
  7. Click on the apply button, then click the fact when it is active.
  8. Select the new SSD, then select restore in the menu editing of disk utility.
  9. In the drop-down menu select the volume that you want to clone - your HARD drive.
  10. Click the apply button to start the process.

  This can take some time depending on the amount of data is transferred. Disk utility also automatically clones Recovery HD from the HDD to the SSD.

• How to clone hard drive in a new ssd

  Looking to clone a Crucial SSD before removing the original internal HD.  What is the most effective way to clone and what equipment is required?

  You will need an external enclosure to put it and plug it in and you can use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone. It's free for 30 days. It is advisable to change the internal connecting cable while you have the HARD drive on but until you fit the SSD.

• best way to clone my boot drive?

  just survived a crash of my Mac Pro desktop computer.  Waiting for a GeForce GTX 680 replacement graphics card.  I need to create a sustainable clone, course of my boot drive. I'd rather NOT have to duplicate everything, just apps, library, system, music, and photos.  Time Machine seems unable to separate parts of the startup disk.

  Carbon Copy Cloner has a very nice interface for the selection of the trees of subdirectory to copy.  Of course if you do not include the operating system, it will not be a bootable clone.

  CCC has a fully active 1 month demo mode.  The saved data is good forever after the demo expires.

  Personally, I just do a full 100% clone and then choose what to restore later.  For this

  Carbon Copy clone

  SuperDuper (a full clone is always free; updated to incremental update of a clone and backup schedule pay you for)

  Disk utility-> Restore, unless restore you the disk with your data backup on a backup drive

• Clone of old mac to new mac

  Can someone give me instructions step by step to clone my old mac to my new mac so it automatically recognizes all the devices (printer, Time Capsule, NAS, etc.) that made my old mac. In other words, I want my new Mac to work exactly like my old - except, of course that the new will be better and faster.

  Thank you.

  the best way to approach the connection with 3 devices, is using the drivers for your new OS machines by developers. both systems can have differences between them and simply force the old system to the new system settings is a guarantee that they will work as you would like that.

  Migration/time Machine Assistant can work for some of this, but if if fails, you will need to get the correct software for your new OS systems.

• Question for users of Carbon Copy clone or Super Duper!

  If you use SuperDuper or CCC! to make clones of your system drive, you can run a little experiment for me?

  With the clone disk connected, place your FCP in the trash. Do NOT drain.

  Try to re download the app on the App Store. You get a warning that the application is already installed?

  If you do not, stop downloading and backward the app from the trash to the Applications.

  Thank you very much.

  I moved from FCP - X in the basket, with the clone (s) to the reader of the CCC system mounted.

  Went to the app store and FCP - X showed with an install button. Clicked on install and download started.

  My clone (s) have different volume names, don't know if that makes a difference.

• Cannot find files on clone super duper, I can restore from Time Machine backup?

  First of all, my apologies for cross posting.

  I hope I can explain my situation with enough clarity so that someone can help out me. I feel a little bit of panic.

  I've had a Mac mini that I sold so need to wipe. I first backed up using Time Machine on an external hard drive. Then, I used Super Duper to clone on a second hard drive. I didn't need a bootable copy of the training, but need access to data, applications, etc. on it from time to time. My intension was to access the data I cloned and stored on the hard drive of my current Macbook Pro. Well, that day came and I went to access my cloned copy of the mini and only see a list of users. I'm not able to find files, documents, and etc.even if I use spotlight to search for. So my questions are:

  1. Can I view the contents of the double machine differently to see more than a list of users? (that is WHERE IS MY THING?)
     1. I have error somehow in my approach?
     2. If I made the mistake with the super duper close, can I restore my time machine to the top of an external drive on another external drive? I want to restore my MacBook hard drive.

  Thank you!!

  I was running just an another SuperDuper! Clone.

• How to clone a tab?

  How to clone a tab in Firefox 25.0.1 for Ubuntu? Can't seem to do it and there is little or no info to do so. Is a simple right-click in the opera.

  There are two possible ways to clone a tab of firefox under ubuntu:

  With the help of history:

  (1) right click on the back/forward buttons of the browser that opens to the history of the page. (You can also do the next step directly on the arrows, but if you have opened the history you can choose which page to open from history, rather than directly open the previous or the next).

  (2) press on (and continue to hold on) the CTRL and click on one of the pages of history.
  Click on one of the pages with the middle mouse button.

  (3) now, after doing one of the steps in the second point, it will open a new tab with the history of the old tab and the starting page will be the page you chose in the history.

  Wihout using history

  If you attempt to drag and drop the tab as if you were re - arrange it, keep the Ctrl key before releasing the mouse button while dragging the tab.
  This will do the same as above, except that you get to choose a place clone tab in the tab bar, and the first page of the cloned tab is the same as the original.

  Hope this has been helpful.
  Thank you.

• Erase the macbook drive and clone in the drive of the iMac.

  Get a Macbook pro. Have an iMac. I mess up whatever it is on the book if I erase his SSD and clone in my iMac clone existing (it will fit). Never had a laptop and do not know if something unique is the reader, i.e. the trackpad software, etc..

  If you duplicate the operating system is at least as new as the original of the MacBook Pro, a commercial software can refuse to carry, and a very small number of parameters, such as the ones energy saver, will not be postponed. You may also need to run the update of combo for the OS version installed.

  If it is, it won't start the computer.

• How to clone my disk to a new SSD

  Hi, communities,

  My hardware: Apple Mac Book Pro (mid-2009), El Capitan running and an airport Time Capsule 3 TB (with Active Time Machine).

  I want to replace my HARD drive. It's easy to find out how to replace it in your Mac Book Pro, but it is much more difficult to find the best way to clone my new SSD HARD drive.

  So my question is: what is the best way and the easiest to clone my disk for my new SSD.

  Hope you can help out me. Most of the information I found was really old.

  Thank you and best regards

  Jacco

  Install the SSD in a closed enclosure and connect it to your MBP via USB.

  Open disk utility > delete and format the SSD to Mac OS extended (journaled).

  You need a third party application cloning.  I recommend Carbon Copy Cloner:

  
  

  https://Bombich.com/

  
  

  Run the application of cloning.  It will ask you if you want to copy the recovery partition.  Do.

  
  

  When you have finished the transfer of data/OSX, start the MBP with the OPTION key down.  Select the SSD drive and if it starts the MBP, make the transition with the HARD drive internal.  (You can install the HARD drive in case you used for cloning)

  Ciao.

• Clone of Time machine backup to a new drive?

  I'm trying to help out a new Mac. Before, I had two back ups of all my data: on the hard drive of my old iMac and my external time machine backup disk. Long story, but during the process of troubleshooting using AppleCare support, my iMac has been cleared. Now, I have only the Time Machine external backup.

  I bought a new drive for Time Machine external backup on my new Mac. I am very very afraid of something bad happens to my old Time Machine backup during the troubleshooting process. My question is, is there a way to clone back to the top of my old drive time machine to the new, so I once more two copies?  If something happens to my old time machine up during this process of troubleshooting, I won't lose all my files.

  I'm not familiar with the Time Machine backups, and even if they need to be cloned since that they are not bootable backups.  The following link is dated but maybe having the relevant documents:

• I want to reset iPad photos so it clones my iMac Photo Album via a cable. Get weird iPad 1/2 albums I don't want. How?

  Something weird is going on my iPad 2 aerial, with the remains and partial albums. I have always used a direct connection cable USB-lightning to synchronize. My iMac photo album is perfectly formed, sorted, etc. I want to have pictures of my iPad to wipe all the photos, and then clone that I have on my pictures to the iMac. No muss, no fuss.

  Then go ahead, I want both of them to sync.

  I've tried enabling iPad iTunes > Photos > synchronize Photos (both TOGETHER and SELECTED (with all selected).) I end up getting half of the albums, they aren't right key group, bad photo, etc.

  I already copied all the pictures I want from my iPad to my iMac, so I'm fine with losing everything that my iPad Photos has, as long as it takes all my iMac photos and on the copy material.

  Best way to do this?

  Latest versions of iOS and El Capitan.

  Bonus question. iPad Photos wants to import many (many) photos to Photos of the iMac. These images already exist. If I select all import them, is smart enough to go, synchronization "is a dup so I don't bother. Or I'm going w / duplicates ruin my iMac Photos? Having several hundred pictures showing whenever I have connect my iPad and then view it on my iMac annoys Photos app.

  Thank you very much!

  I'm sure that you know--he put the photos in iTunes and then sync them to iPad - not sure from Photos - Mac directly, works

  That said, I think I know that photos are stored with a specific tag, and if you import the same image twice, it will be stored again with another tag creates a duplicate

  If possible try with just an image and see what happens

  Also, if you don't want pictures opens automatically as soon as the connection of the iPad - there is a box at the top left which you can uncheck

• Implement the bootable disk clone

  I have a basic model last iMac 21.5 "2013. It was slow so I bought a 120 GB external SSD that I use as the startup disk and now, it's great. I would now like to divide the internal drive to be a clone of 120 GB SSD (just in case) and 880 GB external for documents, etc.

  What is the best way to create the clone of the SSD so that he clones per week and is bootable? I'm not comfortable using Terminal Server.

  Any help would be much appreciated. I already have Carbon Copy Cloner and a billing to buy other software such as Super Duper.

  Thank you.

  CCC will work for external cloning internally. However the destination for the CCC drive really needs to be large and small not as the source drive.

  Personally, I have a dual boot system and use CCC to back up both of my drives start at several different external drives larger.

  FWIW personally I try to erase the internees, clone back to it from the outside, then try again starting and running from the inside.
