Snowleopard + Yosemite

• Order screen Yosemite?

  On 27 "iMac with Yosemite, I need to go to THE normal screenshot with dock on the left, the normal screen I see you on starting the computer, with the menu bar at the top and showing the Office NORMAL with any software open, sitting in the middle of the screen.

  On another Mac Mini with Snow Leopard, it's normal. It used to be normal on the iMac. But something has changed to where I no longer see the desktop, but instead, I yosemite has now no dock and no desk top, but it's full light gray with communities in support of Apple in the middle and white or a list of bookmarks on the left.

  This open screen takes the entire width of the screen.  Seems to me there's the path to return to the normal desktop showing the desktop of my dock on the left. At 90 years old maybe memory is slippery, but I never liked Yosemite and rarely use it; only for software that does not work on SnowLeopard.

  What is the key that seems to me have forgotten?

  You are using the full screen? Command - command - F to see if that changes it.

• I have problems to restart of Yosemite, after power failure during the new backup, and now HD is also blocked.

  I have problems to restart of Yosemite, after power failure during the new backup, and now HD is also blocked.

  I tried the holding of 'command-r' and 'option' to see if the problem can be resolved or try any boot from a boot disk, my old backup, USB function start - but after a slow long process it all just stops.

  There is software on my HD that I don't want to lose by simply reformatting the computer, because I am now in a different country, far from my house, which is another problem of the Apple Store, to reinstall my OS from Yosemite on the www.

• My inner smartdrive dvd player won't read DVDs more.  I have updated to Snow Leopard in Yosemite.

  I am currently using OS X Yosemite 10.10.5.  I bought in 2009 iMac with Snow Leopard and have to Lion then updated my current operating system.  The internal dvd player has worked with much fussing, (insert the disc - closing - turn after a wait - by pushing the drive when he jumped on reboot).  If I had the chance after a few hours, the video disc show up on my desk.  When this happened, I was opening the dvd player that was in the Finder and the disc would play. I also tried to open the dvd first player and then insert the disc.  That no longer works.  Yesterday, only it just stop working.  The reader still takes dvd and swirls and click as before but then ejects the dvd. Repeatedly stop and restart is no longer works.  I make sure that the dvd be clean before I use it and have tried many different DVDs without success.  I think it's a software issue.  Does anyone have an idea/instructions a nearly dead grandmother brain that can follow to update or redate back to original factory setting to help this poor Smartdrive not so smart?

  I have no TV, only my computer and phone at low prices.  I need to watch that my library borrowed from the dvd.

  Thank you.

  I suspect the optical drive has failed. My 2009 Mac Mini could not shoot with same symptom 4 years ago.

  To confirm a drive failure, insert a Snow Leopard installation DVD and try to start with the C key.

  If this isn't the case, they drive could not be started.

  I would just get an external optical drive, one powered with an AC adapter. The Superdrive Apple USB does not work without a hack.

  I am on a MacBook Pro mid 2012, Yeosmite 10.10.5, I want to switch to Sierra and am nervous to do when I had a terrible experience upgrade to Yosemite, support with gratitude by Apple in charge.  I have everything backed up on Time Machine. Are there steps of preparation I need to do before you download and upgrade to Sierra.  Can you please advise me please?

  N ° so you have a backup if something goes wrong you can return to Yosemite.

  Only concern is that some devices, including USB that may require the updated drivers, but these records are not always available

• I have a 2008 iMac - how do Yosemite or El Capitan.  Sierra will not install.

  I have a 2008 iMac - how do Yosemite or El Capitan.  Sierra will not install (I want either the hack).

  I never 'got' Yosemite or El Capitan when they were available on the Mac App Store.

  The only way I've found is to get it on Apple's developer site, but I'm not a developer.  Apple how to flip the switch to the Mac App Store so that it shows up on top of my list?

  On this iMac, you should still be able to download El Capitan:

• Yosemite bootable install disc only half recognized

  Hello

  I am in the process of upgrading to 10.8.5 Yosemite and created a bootable Yosemite installation on a 100 G SSD drive connected via USB.

  The drive will appear under the "Startup disk" in "system settings" (sorry if these names are not quite correct because I use a Japanese version), and I can choose the drive so I guess that the disk must be blessed, but when I reboot, the Mac restarts on its built-in hard drive.

  I tried to restart while pressing the option key, but this time the installation of Yosemite drive not even will appear.

  Does anyone have an idea of what might happen and how do I fix?

  Thank you!

  You will have to redo the external hard drive, because the operating system on it is not recognised as bootable. How did you create the disk external bootable?

• Upgrade to El Capitan in Yosemite

  I have a fairly new MacBook Pro running Yosemite. I was going to upgrade to El Capitan, but now he me Sierra offers instead. I don't want to do because of the risk that £500 dollars worth of software (File Maker Pro 11, final draft 8, Office 2011) will stop working.

  My office is running El Cap, and applications above all work fine.

  In my view, there is the ease of upgrade to El Cap, but he seems to be reserved for people running older versions. Do you think I can upgrade using this path? Or everything will go horribly wrong?

  Thank you

  There is a link on this site in order to download the installer from El Capitan of App store.

• How can I delete all but 2015 to 2016 nigh (ios10.0.2) iPhone photos to free up space, after synchronizing all photos on my Mac (Yosemite 10.10.5)?

  How can I remove all but 2015 to 2016 photos from my iPhone (ios10.0.2) for free space, after synchronizing all the photos on my mac (Yosemite 10.10.5) computer?

  The fastest way I can think of would be to go to the Albums, go to all the Photos tab, highlight the photo you want to delete and press 'Select' in the upper right corner. Place your finger on the first complete line, you want to remove (if you have pictures that do not have a complete row that you want to remove these institutions, select them individually first), slide your finger on the line so that they are all selected, and then slide up so that it starts automatically at your old photos of scrolling. Once the photos you want to delete are selected, press the trash in the lower right. This will move them to your album "Recently deleted", then they will be always on your phone for 30 days, unless you remove them. If you are sure that you have already backed up these photos and does not accidentally still photos you want, feel free to remove them.

• can I use bootcamp to Yosemite

  Hello

  I don't like El Capitan and want to use Yosemite but to go back is not something I want to do while my Mac is under warranty, so could I run Yosemite with the option of bootcamp

  If your computer comes with Yosemite or earlier version, you can restore your system without voiding the warranty, or use disk utility to partition the drive and install Yosemite on the volume of the vacuum. The Boot Camp Assistant is exclusively for Windows.

• Bug Mail Yosemite El Cap in Sierra

  Mail to Yosemite was a really annoying bug in Mail. If you had an e-mail selected in the message list and changed the sort order, the list changed the view at the top of the sort, instead of sorting 'around' the selected message. You need to scroll the list of messages to find your selected message.

  This made it very difficult to find "not send this person an email about this a month ago or something? ' without having to resort to the search bar.

  It was also in opposition to the way E-mail worked * never * (I use OS X since the first beta) and is completely out of the norm for how all customer email works. If you have a selected message this message should stay in the list see no matter how you sort.

  Fortunately, they have fixed this in El Capitan.

  Its baaaaaack. :-(

  macOS Sierra has reintroduced this bug...
