Should I downgrade from Yosemite to the Mavericks?

Hello.

I am currently using the retina-no, mid 2012 MacBook Pro with 4 GB of RAM and 500 GB HARD drive. I bought in 2015 so it came with Yosemite (version 10.10.5) preinstalled. I don't plan to upgrade the HARD drive to SSD anytime soon. So should I install the Mavericks on the mac or continue to use the Yosemite. Which of the two will run better and faster?

No Apple Mac can run an operating system earlier than that which he had initially.

    Hello

    Your Mac came with the Mavericks, or earlier? You cannot start a version of Mac OS x earlier than what it came with.

  • From: Return to the Mavericks Yosemite

    Hello!

    How can I downgrade Yosemite 10.10.5 (current operating system) back to the Mavericks? I'd rather have the look and performance of the Mavericks.

    I don't have a Time Machine backup of the Mavericks any longer that I upgraded to Yosemite, about five months ago. Mavericks Time Machine would be to old to use anyway.

    Installed Mavericks 10.9.5 on an external drive for now. I have everything there that I'll copy the external drive on the internal drive.  What are the options I have to get my files from Yosemite to the new installation of Mavericks?

    Thanks in advance!

    AJ

    If you have the Mavericks installed on an external HARD drive, which prevents you to transfer data to the user from the HARD of Yosemite drive disk HARD the Mavericks?  Once you have the drive external HARD (with the Mavericks) set to your satisfaction, wipe the internal HARD drive and clone the HARD the Mavericks for the disk drive HARD internal.

    You can use disk utility > restore or third party software such as Carbon Copy Cloner.  The two will also create the recovery partition.

    Ciao.

  • How can I get the file Library.photoslibrary from Yosemite to open in Mavericks

    Hello!

    I have downgraded from Yosemite to the Mavericks, and I'm moving my files to the Mavericks.

    I have a Library.photoslibrary file opening problem Photo with the Mavericks.

    That's what I tried:

    ILife 11. Installed iPhoto and updated to 9.4.3 worm. Copied from Library.photoslibrary to the Mavericks.

    Could not open the library.

    Suggested a how-to website. Go to the App Store and iPhoto download (from files 'Bought'). The version he was 9.5.1. Tried with the same result, would not open the file Library.photoslibrary of Photos on the Mavericks.

    Would appreciate any help on how I can access/use of the photoslibrary of Yosemite, the Mavericks.

    Thanks for any help!

    AJ

    What version of iPhoto did you use finally to open the library?

    iPhoto cannot downgrade a library, but you can use iPhoto Library Manager to downgrade the library, see this help page: http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/Help/downgrading%20a%20library%20to%20an%20ea rlier%20version%20of%20iphoto.html

  • The Mavericks own downgrade

    I'm looking for downgrade from Yosemite to the Mavericks after hurriedly deciding to upgrade before El Capitan has rolled out. I have had problems with Pro Tools after a recent update of this program and now seems to be the right time to do a clean install of Mavericks and start from scratch. I installed a disc SSD boot about a year ago and I still have the original HARD, Mavericks on this disc and I thought that I would try to do a clean install from that. Are there additional steps I need to take to do a clean install from that drive? It is not 'clean' because I have some programs installed on it.

    Apple does not use the terminology 'clean install', so I would recommend you avoid it scared you wrong interpret what you intend to do. Did you buy Mavericks from the Mac App Store, or was initially installed Mavericks on your MBP when you bought it?

    In both cases, booting OS X Internet recovery will allow you to restore the OS X installed initially supplied with your Mac version. Do that add an option key key ⌘ R rope when you start your Mac: using three fingers hold ⌘ + R option (three fingers) when you start up your Mac with a fourth finger. Keep the three fingers where they are until you see the icon "spinning globe. You can then use disk utility to erase the boot volume, after you reinstall the Mac OS originally installed. If it wasn't no Mavericks, thereafter install Mavericks from the Mac App Store by selecting the tab bought .

    Or, quite simply, you can reinstall the HARD drive that you removed.

  • Can we download and install the Mavericks?

    I'm running the mountain (10.8.5) Lion on my Mac mini and have so far resisted the upgrade of my OS because I have some expensive software that does not run on the latest OS. Now, I discovered that there is work on the Mavericks, but all I can find on Apple's site is an update of the Mavericks, which requires that one has already installed Mavericks. Is it possible that I can go from Cougar to the Mavericks?

    I regularly back up my entire system with Time Machine and also with Carbon Copy Cloner. If Mavericks installation involves deleting everything on my hard drive, a backup performed while I was still running Mountain Lion would allow me to restore the contents of my HD in Mavericks?

    Apple has removed the Mavericks and Yosemite from the App Store.

    Only upgrade your option is El Capitan.

    Hello

    If you want to use the Win XP instead of Vista, then you must do a clean install!
    The downgrade will not work because Vista is newer than XP.

    I put t know what laptop you have, but most of the new laptops support a SATA HDD controller and you must include the SATA drivers to install Win XP.

    In addition SATA drivers are a part of the Intel Storage Manager which should be published on the Toshiba page as well.

    Just a hint; Use the option search advanced this Toshiba forum there are a lot of discussions about this theme!

  • Upgrade of the Mavericks to Yosemite. Still possible?

    Hi, I am aware that El Capitan is the latest software for the iMac. I am running Mavericks and rather than upgrade to El Capitan, I prefer to upgrade to the latest version of Yosemite. Is - this still possible, or am I forced to move to El Capitan instead? Any help would be great. Thank you.

    Model - L300 Satellite PSLB8A-01F004
    Australian model
    Place of residence current UK

    Happy new year to you all. I have a problem with the adapter wireless following a downgrade from Vista to XP Pro home. Device Manager indicates that a network adapter, which is the LAN and it does not work properly.

    I have two points with one exception - Ethernet controller and Modem on Bus High Definition Audio device.

    I find all the major engines of the Toshiba Australia but he lists three (I think) site possible WLAN - Atheros, RealTek, and one of the other manufacturers.

    I tried all three without success but am willing to acknowledge that I can have a mistake, perhaps by installing all three drivers at the same time for example.

    The indicator on the front of the box portable wireless lights on or off with the hard switch setting.

    I am also unable to locate the display of all available wireless netrworks, this can be a symptom of the driver is not installed.

    I tried to locate the wireless card, but it doesn't seem to be accessible through the background panels, including the Panel of RAM module.

    Any ideas please?

    > I have two Articles with one exception - Ethernet controller and Modem on Bus High Definition Audio device.

    The Ethernet controller is the WLAN adapter.
    I guess that the WLan driver is missing and so the wireless network card does not appear under network adapters

  • How can I downgrade from Windows 7 to Windows XP? Where can I get the disks for this?

    No not supplied with the PC recovery CD.  Where to get recovery HP CDs. says buy from Microsoft, Microsoft says contact manufacturer

    original title: Downgrade from windows 7 to XP

    If you have an HP computer with Windows 7 pre-installed,

    (a) you will not be able to find the drivers for your computer hardware for XP (except if you bought your computer, just like Windows 7 was spilled) - even if you could find somehow a copy of XP to install and

    (b) any person at HP who told you to contact Microsoft won't - HP is obliged by its license from Microsoft to provide you with a mechanism (it doesn't have to be physical CDs) to reinstall the operating system that was on the computer when you bought it.

    What is your "product number" HP?  See http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/findModel?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us

    Why would you downgrade to XP anyway?

    This is NOT official HP customer service and I, like most other people on this forum do not work for HP. It is a forum for users of peer-to-peer supported for class for the HP consumer products. HP maintains no official presence on this forum and it is unlikely that HP will respond in an official capacity. No response from an employee of HP represents his own opinion and not that of HP.

    If computers were purchased with Microsoft's Downgrade rights, they would be shipped with Windows 7 Pro 64 bit installed in the factory and restore HP 8/8.1 Pro 64-bit Windows included media. You will need create the restoration of Windows 7 Pro 64 - bit from at least one of these computers support.

    -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    If computers ship with Windows 7 Pro 64-bit installed or if you have media to restore Windows 7 Pro 64-bit computers, you may be able to use the below to install Windows 7 Pro 32-bit.

    (1) download and unzip ABR Beta with Windows 7 Support. This is the homepage of ABR for Windows Vista. Please follow the section "How to use" for information and instructions on how to use it.

Run ABR 'restoration of activation' to 'install' the previously saved until the product key and the certificate.

(It "installs" pre-installed HP OEM factory original key and certificate from your factory installed OS to your new installation of Windows. This HP OEM key and the OEM HP certificate, as well as the BIOS is what allows your computer to HP be factory preactivated.)
