Installation of El Capitan on default of new SSD

Similar Questions

• A procedure has been asked to do a new installation of El Capitan on a newly installed ssd.

  Where do you download El Capitan and Diskmaker-X, to make a bootable USB and install El Capitan? Do download you both in your downloads folder, insert a blank USB key and run diskmaker and this puts a bootable copy of El Capitan on the USB key? Or you copy both on the USB and run diskmaker-X.  I need some details please?

  You download DiskMaker X in your file downloads, the full installer of El Capitan in the Applications folder and you run DiskMaker X.

• New SSD - windows 8 or 10 on el Capitan (iMac 2010)

  Dear people of Apple support!

  I may be one little different from others going on here and I hope that you guys can talk me through it. After days of trying, I'm a bit lost to be honest.

  About 5 days ago I received my iMac 27 "(mid-2010) updated with a new SSD (originally there was just the 1 TB HD)." The new SSD (which is 512 gb) has been in the position where the cd/dvd drive used to be (that I now can't use more). I now have the 1 TB and the new SSD upward and running with el Capitan installed on the new SSD. Works great!

  The main reason to go with the SSD is obviously to speed things up, but also because I wanted to have (8 or 10, I guess) installed Windows with Bootcamp on this SSD.

  The things I have tried/made up to now:

  -Have both iso of windows 8 and 10 loan

  -Edited my info.plist file where I remove the "Pre" just before USBBootSupportedModels to activate the option in BCA where you can create a bootable USB key

  -After trying the same mistakes with several usb occurs after BCA to restart first, which is "no boot device - insert boot disk and press any key".

  -J' stopped the iMac and power on it pressing the option key where I found the bootable usb key (which showed boot EFI)

  -A from there, I walked into the perfect installation of windows. ;-)

  -However, that's where I really got stuck. I couldn't select my partition. Error on show details: 'Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk is a MBR partition table. On EFI systems, Windows cannot be installed to GPT disks.

  -After formatting, I had the same error as above (error of GPT disks).

  -J' found this error a lot, especially on this forum. So I tried to fix it with gdisk (http://macriot.com/mcrt/?p=2362). Unfortunately no luck, I got the error to the step where you type 'w '. Error: Could not open device ' / dev/disk0 ' for writing! Errno is 1! Abandonment of writing!

  -J' discovered that it has something to do with SIP and that I should turn off safe mode, but when I restart my iMac I can't get into recovery by using CMD + r. Mode I tried to use it immediately after her, short, long, etc, but all I get is a white screen.

  Some things aside that I tried:

  -Creation of a windows partition manually with disk utility (remove the fact first by BCA)

  -Tried the two structures MS - DOT (FAT), and ExFAT

  -J' tried editting the info.plist still more by entering a string below DARequiredROMversion (IM112.0057.B03) and USBBootSupportedModels (iMac11, 3)

  Where I am at this time:

  -Ready with Windows 8 ISO bootable USB

  -Removal of all partitions in windows

  -Reset my hd and SDS info.plist file (I guess there are 2)

  --A STROLLER full reset (with cmd + option + p r to reboot) 3 times

  -Said a MSC (I think it's called) reset where I disconnected my cable for 15 seconds

  Trully I thinks I tried most of the things that I could find online, which led me to this post.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated. If any additional info is requirement please let me know.

  Thank you!

  Best regards.

  Your iMac 2010 will not be installed Windows using without the optical drive boot camp.

  You should try this option, but it requires you to buy Winclone.

  You can also temporarily re - install the optical drive and make sure you install Windows on the main Bay drive (not in the optical drive Bay) and then put your second drive (the one without Windows on it) in the Optibay slot.

  Since the installation of El Capitan, my streaming to my Audioengine DAC D2 cut after 12 minutes (the default duration of sleep). It will restart by pressing the space bar. When I change the duration of sleep, the cut outs are becoming more frequent and intermittent. Help?

  I checked the wifi and changed frequency (new modem, frequency change made no difference). The Board battery seems fine - all updates well. My computer is an iMac (2011), 3.1 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3, with a new AMD Radeon graphics card. I recently installed a State strong 1 TB SATA drive and fitted with a LaCie Porsche 4 to USB for backup and a 4TB disk storage RAID LaCie drive.

  I'm frustrated, having to come in my computer since my living room every 12 minutes to continue to listen to Spotify on my stereo system.

  My guess is there a bug in the software of sleep in El Capitan, which disrupts his (I've tried different USB ports connect the Audioengine sender and same thing).

  Should I go back to Yosemite?

• Modem remains on after the installation of El Capitan

  Hi all

  Since the installation of El Capitan, my modem seeing 'Link' continues to blink (yellow) after that my mac is asleep or off. It flashes green when my mac is active and has been turned off when it is idle. Is this a new normal and is it bad for the modem?

  I don't know what kind of modem you have.

  I suggest do you a hard restart of the modem - see if the old behavior back.

• Do not click then that would start in a player flash for a clean installation of El Capitan.

  Bootable media created on a flash drive to do a clean installation of El Capitan on my MBP to Mid 2009. Once I'm booted up in the newly created disk, I can't click on anything in the public services. Chaotic strikes me disk utility, but clicking on does not. I can arrow up to my HD, but unable to select erase. To be clear, I CAN click around in disk utility when I'm booted up 'normally' in my HD. But when I restart, press the alt/option key and select the flash drive, I created for the new facility, click on in order to continue this process is not an option.

  First aid post ever. Hope that plays by the rules. Thank you very much!

  It's very strange behavier. Have you tried to clean your trackpad? Have you tried a wired mouse?

  Before you click to install flash player, the mouse was sensitive to other options?

• How to do a clean install of El Capitan on new ssd?

  I bought a new SSD to replace the SATA drive in my Macbook Pro for mid-2010. I am running Yosemite. What I want to do, is to do a clean install of El Capitan on the SSD. I also bought a pregnant and plan on the use of the old drive as an external backup.

  I need some advice: after installing the ssd in the MBP and the old drive in the box, I intend to plug the old drive for the MBP, format the SSD drive and then use a reader flash which I did the Setup file of El Capitan to a clean of El Capitan for the SSD install and then use the Migration Wizard to migrate applications and files from the old drive.

  Is there a better way? Maybe install the SSD in the enclosure first, connect to the MBP, then shaped and do cleaning installation of El Capitan?

  All advice is appreciated.

  installing the SSD in the pregnant first, connect to the MBP, then shaped and do clean install of El Capitan?

  It's better. Some of these Macs experience problems after surgery. The new installation using the outside doing will give you confidence that it works before surgery, and no problem introduced by surgery can be separated from issues of installation and update. It will install and run in an external, just may be a little slow.

• My 2 TB TC is full and will not back up. Yet, I have only 1 TB of data on my laptop. Note that I've reformatted the laptop since the last backup with a clean installation of El Capitan.

  My 2 TB Time Capsule is full and will not save. Yet, I have only 1 TB of data on my laptop. Note that I've reformatted the laptop since the last backup with a clean installation of El Capitan.

  I bought a 2 TB external hard and have used Time Machine to back up. But I also use my time Capsule, which I save wireless.

  Any suggestions on getting my TC back up?

  One suggestion would be to copy all existing backups that are now on the Time Capsule 2 TB hard disk. Then, clear the TC and start over again with new backups.

  A more expensive option... assuming you want to keep all old backups on the TC... would be to add a new TC and start backups goes in this direction.

  Another option... If you do not need to keep all old backups now on the TC... would be to erase the TC and start over again with new backups. The benefit of doing this would be that no new material will be necessary, but the downside would be that you lose your old backup history.

• I can not proceed with the installation of EL Capitan after downloaded because my same unaccepted Apple ID if the correct password overlay

  Salvation;

  I tried to upgrade my macbook pro OS Yosemite to El Capitan, but I can not proceed with the installation of EL Capitan after downloaded because my ID Administration Apple not accepted even if correct password entry.

  By navigating through ' assistance from Apple is in charge to retrieve the Apple ID, I deleted the keychain, now the problem is I can't add the new keychain.

  Please help as I am now hung the message not found "Login" keychain... then reappear.

  Thank you

  Mel

  Okay, so you didn't get very far in the installation.

  Here's how to reset a forgotten password.

  Do you have a backup before the upgrade, such as a time Machine backup?   (Keychain is not containing the administrative password, unfortunately.)   You remove the login keychain, all stored passwords in Safari and in fact be lost.)   If you have, I would recover the set of connection from there.

  If you don't have a current backup, it's the first think you get.

  There could be a problem with the disk or of protection structure, or with the disc itself.    Creating a new keychain cannot be blocked, short error permissions or a drive problem.    Disk utility and check the drive and see if there is something to do.   (Unfortunately, some of these steps require an administrative password.)   You can try the repairs or a backup to disk by booting from the recovery partition - that won't require no administrative privileges - and attempt a repair or recovery from here, or save the entire drive disk external work.

  You have another Mac around, where certain tools can be generated and can then be used here?

• I accidentally deleted iPhotos after installation of El Capitan and were not able to download or reinstall.

  I accidentally deleted the iPhoto app on my new mac after installation of El Capitan and are not available for download, except the updates, which obviously doesn't work. How can I get that back?

  You can probably not - most likely, you will need to switch to Photos (what would happen sooner or later anyway)

  Have you looked under purchases in the app store?  Can't update iPhoto because it is not available in the App Store

  If it is not there you can try reinstalling iPhoto 11 of the original source and the upgrade to 9.6.1 but I doubt it will work

  Or you can try to restore your backup from just before you shape did this error

  Good luck

• Photo library lost after installation of El Capitan

  After the installation of El Capitan in Yosemite, my MacBookPro doesn´t recover the existing photo of i-photo library. It only shows what created under El Capitan. They went or is it just the link who is gone? Does anyone know?

  Look in your pictures folder, in your user name folder, this is the default location for the library of Photos and the iPhoto library.

  Now the option/ALT key when starting iPhoto or Photos will bring up a dialog for you to choose library.

  You can also put libraries in iPhoto. Go to the folder / switch to library.

• Problem creating bootable installation for El Capitan

  Hello

  When I try to create an installation program for El Capitan bootable on a new MacBook Pro (A1278) in November 2015 using the string SUDO included in

  HT201372: Create a bootable OS x Installer, I get an immediate failure with the answer "sudo: failed to initialize the PAM: no such file or directory." Diskmaker X loops on it and runs into the same answer of the problem.  Is there a solution or the solution to this problem?

  If you do not already have a current backup, please backup all data, and then reinstall the OS. * you don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need the backup unless something is wrong. If the system has been upgraded an earlier version of Mac OS X, you may need to the Apple ID and password to use.

  There are ways to back up a computer that is not fully functional. Ask if you need advice.

  If you installed the runtime Java distributed by Apple, and still need, you will need to reinstall it. It goes the same for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.

  Related support article refers to OS X 10.11 ("El Capitan"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later versions.
