Install options to place in El Capitan
I have an iMac 2011 with two partitions. We have Snow Leopard, which is necessary for Final Cut Pro 6. Another has Lion where I want to install El Capitan, I downloaded but it says that I need about 3 GB of space to install. I don't have large files or apps that I downloaded that take up a lot of space.
Can I remove some large applications such as iPhoto (1 GB), iMovie (700 MB), GarageBand (380 MB), etc. and expect just to be re-installed with El Capitan? I have no files or projects in these applications, but I don't want to lose the apps forever. I see that the Mac App Store has these apps but charge for them.
I have an external hard drive with a copy of the scores I've done with Carbon Copy Cloner a bit old. I'd rather not do the project of Re-partitioning to make more space on the Lion, but it may be the only option and not also involved I guess it is.
Thank you!
El Capitan requires about 8-9 GB of free space for the installation of the4. After that, it may take only 3 GB of space. However, it is strongly recommended that a minimum of 10 to 15 GB free spade maintained for optimal system and application run. So reformatting of the hard drive may be necessary depending on how much free space on the partition of Lion. Also, you should have the same amount of free cat in the volume of SL for good performance.
How much space you have in each volume? You could add an external hard drive that is formatted as shown in this screenshot of bulky House (not applications) as your iTunes or iPhoto, libraries etc.

Windows 7 fails to install completely via Bootcamp on El Capitan
Configuration information:
iMac: 27-inch, late 2009, with an internal optical drive
HDD capacity: 1 TB, 593 GB available (after Windows 96 GB)
OS: El Capitan, 10.11.2
Processor: 3.08 GHz, Intel Core 2 Duo
RAM: 8 GB
Boot Camp: 6.0.1
Windows 7 Professional, SP1, 64-bit
My Windows 7 installation does not end, stopping somewhere on the last phase that says "end Installation." I had Windows 7 installed on my Mac before El Capitan has been installed and it worked fine (using the 32-bit version then - I tried too after the installation of El Capitan, but that doesn't work anymore). I did a fresh install of El Capitan that then tried to reinstall Windows 7, but nothing has worked, as shown below.
I use Bootcamp 6.0.1 to install Windows 7 Professional (full version) on a DVD via the internal optical drive. Bootcamp does not offer the ability to select an ISO file. My selection select Bootcamp task shows that these two options:
-Download the latest software from Apple's Windows support
-Install Windows 7
I chose the two options and had the software support installed on a 64 GB USB key. Since the only option after that install the software support is to stop BCA, I did. I've reopened BCA, deselected the option to download the support software and continued to install Windows 7, making the Bootcamp 96 GB partition. I chose Custom installation and formatted the drive Bootcamp. The Windows installer completes the list of things to do (copy files, extension files,...) and then recharge. Start Windows appears, and the window displays "end installation. Now that there where begins the strange behavior, I think. It restarts again. After that the Windows splash screen comes on, the screen goes black for a few minutes and then he recharges. This happens once again, but restarting does not, as if it is hung. I even let it run all night just in case she needed some time, but I found that it is always hanging in the morning. The computer was still on and the screen was black. I rebooted by pressing and holding down the power button, Windows starts showing the splash screen becomes black and crashes. ... I started Windows in safe mode, and he says that he cannot complete the installation in safe mode. So it seems that I am stuck. During all this the USB is plugged.
Is there something I need to do to have it complete the installation?
Note that I tried to install Windows using Bootcamp several times, varying from one thing at a time. as the withdrawal of all external drives, physically disconnected from the internet (I'm using a USB adapter to Ethernet because my Ethernet port was fried during a storm), etc. I also tried different ideas that I found on the internet, but none for those who work.
Thanks in advanced for any help.
1 disconnect all USB/ethernet and storage connections.

This is not to point the finger at you, but it's very intriguing and fascinating as users using a 2009 (or older than 2013) Macs, wants to run W7 (from circa 2009), but running OSX El Capitan (2015). It may be due to the software requirements, ISU, Corporate guidelines, etc. And you're not the only one. I've seen users with Macs 2015 wanted to run W7 (but it is no longer supported).

Good point. Brightness apps are overlays. They don't Sun really onscreen, but put a filter on it dark. These can interfere with applications app. So if you have a screen dimming app then turn it off.

I have placed several orders of Wal-Mart before today using Firefox without any problems. But today, nothing but problems. I tried for more than 4 hours, get this order to cross. I told cat line of Walmart and told me that I have to install Chrome to place an order. They don't answer when I asked if Walmart belonging to Chrome.
I deleted the cookies and cache and restarted but none of this has worked. While Chrome has that Firefox does not work? I tried Chrome before and he hated and had a devil of a time he get off my computer. I don't want to go there again.
I have attached a copy of the message that I get seems to indicate that it is a problem within Wal-Mart, but I said that it was with my browser.
I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit and using Firefox 40.0.3.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Thanks for your reply. I just figured out the problem.
All started when I tried to pay my order at 13:00 this afternoon. I am persistent and don't give up easily. Five hours later, I found an error in their programming, which allowed me to add an item to my shopping cart that was a purchase in store only. But then when I went to pay for it, he became confused and wouldn't let me order but didn't tell me why.
I solved by moving all items in the basket to saved for later and then add one at a time, trying to get to the car after each addition. It took a while because there are 20 items. He had the same problem when I added the item in the store to the cart and tried to pay for it. So I deleted and purchased on Ebay.
Now I know probably as much if not more than any of their populations of the Chat line that can only be read on a book script.
It's a relief that I don't have to use Chrome. I really like Firefox and would not change.

I am trying to install Windows 7 via USB, (El Capitan, Macbook Pro - early 2011), but this mistake "No. BOOTABLE DEVICE - INSERT BOOT DISK AND press ANY KEY ' when bootcamp restart my macbook to begin the installation. Any ideas?
You cannot use a USB on Mac 2011 Installer. Please burn the ISO on a physical DVD Windows (a DVD - R Carbon SL on the rate of burning slower is better) and use it to install Windows. The file Info.plist changes only allowing the creation of USB, but does not fully support a USB Installation.

Adobe Photoshop 5 collide with Windows7
I have an old Adobe Photoshop 5 CD and want to download on my windows7 system, but when I select Install option nothing happens. Adobe worked fine with my old XP Home EditionNo, it is not compatible with Windows 7, and Compatibility Mode will not work either. Read a case similar to yours:
http://www.SevenForums.com/software/83119-Adobe-Photoshop-5-a.html
In addition, if you are running Windows 7 64 bit, it won't work because Photoshop 5 uses a 16-bit installation program.
Photoshop will work in Windows Virtual PC with Windows XP Mode, but you will need to allocate sufficient memory for her.
Tip: How to add more memory to Windows XP Mode ...
Most older programs don't work with Windows 7, in particular some programs for Windows XP, can you need to perhaps upgrade to Windows 7 Professional or ultimate edition if you run not an edition and download the Windows XP Mode free program which will allow you run old programs:

I just installed Mac OS 10.11 (El Capitan) and now can't print from Photoshop CS5. All other software installed, including 4 of Lightroom, has not printing problems. Contacted Apple and they said that it is a problem for Adobe.
Help?
When you reinstall CS5, you start to 12.0 there's a 12.0.4 update that includes bug fixes.
You need to directly download this update and before you install, go into osx security & privacy > general tab and temporarily allow app installs anywhere.

Where is the option to 'Place' in Photoshop CC 2015?
I might be dominant it somewhere, but I can't seem to find the option to 'Place' in Photoshop CC 2015. Earlier versions, at least those I've used; Photoshop CS6 and Photoshop CC, took place under file option.
It is not an option in Photoshop CC 2015?
Sound here. They added a related option so the two choices are placed embedded or linked place
