Time to upgrade to Cougar?

I am running OS 10.8.5 that I find to be a problem quite stable and free. However, more and more applications and sites Web is more it support and urged me to go to an OS that is supported. The same situation applies to my main browser, Safari 6.2.8, which is no longer can be improved, unless I have install a new operating system. In other words, they tell me that if I want to use my iMac to its full potential, I have to install El Capitan.

I am very reluctant to upgrade to a new operating system, especially when it came out. It is often full of problems, and it may take some time before these problems are solved. El Capitan has been out for six months and I was wondering how it works for you. Are most, if not all of the original bugs now missing? No serious problems remain?

I know that sooner or later I'll have to upgrade to the latest OS Mountain Lion - in this case El Capitan. Finally, it is a good time to do? Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

to do this anyway. If you go back, you can, if you don't need you still have your data in case there is a problem.

Use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support

You can also connect an external drive you iMac, install OS X 10.11 on it and start it and in case you have a problem start you on the other drive with 10.8

before start you on this you must know if you existing 3rd party software works, or don't have updates for compatilbity. If it is not made by apple, you need to check.

https://roaringapps.com/

is a good site but it is not 100% reliable

If you have printers or external devices, you must verify that the developers of these devices have the right drivers for 10.11

DO NOT assume that if it works for Mac OS 10.8 they are still a working version of 10.11. Many OS framework changed between them and therefore more SW and HW may no longer work. Backup before going any further!

ALSO the suggestion of RAM of 2 GB for 10.11 by Apple is inept. Even with 4 GB of RAM, your system can compete with OS 10.11. What are your system specs? If you can't go to

    I tried a number of times to upgrade to windows 10. I get c1900101 - 4000D as a mistake. Once, my entire hard drive crashed and I had to reinstall Windows 7. I am also having a problem installing Adobe Flash player. It is said that API-MS-Win-Core-Registery-l1-1-0.dll is missing but I don't know what it is. Any suggestions?

    "Configuration settings" is the final phase and fault codes look like c1900101 x400xx. The most common failure here is 40017, which means we could not start. Since this is the first time start us Windows 10 with all the drivers in place, once again, drivers are usually the cause of the accident. These issues tend to be less transient than the 30018 s, then a second test is less likely to solve the problem. Yet, it never hurts to try.

    Try to upgrade manually:

    Task of pre-required

    When you make significant changes to your computer for example updated operating system, you must always back up. See the links to resources on the backup by clicking the link for each version of Windows you are using: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1

    then

    then

    • Turn off (preferably uninstall) your Antivirus utility before you perform the upgrade.
    • Reboot several times, and then try again.
    • Disable the general USB peripherals (for example - smart card reader).
    • If you are using a SCSI drive, make sure you have the drivers available for your storage on a thumdrive device and it is connected. During the installation of Windows 10, click on the advanced custom Option and use the command load driver to load the driver for the SCSI drive. If this does not work and the installer still fails, consider switching to an IDE based hard drive.
    • Perform a clean boot, restart, and then try again.
    • If you upgrade to the. ISO file, disconnect from the Internet during the installation, if you are connected in LAN (Ethernet) or wireless, disable both, then try to install.
    • If you are updated through Windows Update, when download reaches 100% disconnect from the LAN (Ethernet) Internet or Wi - Fi, then proceed with the installation.
    • If this does not work, try using the. ISO file to upgrade if possible.
    • If you are connected to a domain, go to a local account.
    • If you have an external equipment, attached to the machine, unplug them (example, game controllers, USB sticks, external hard drive, printers, peripherals not essential).

    If the problem persists, try the upgrade manually, but choose the option to keep personal files only, you will have to reinstall applications.

  • AppleScript no longer works after upgrade to Cougar in Yosemite

    Hey all,.

    I have an AppleScript that I use for my business that automates a process that I use on a daily basis. This script automatically does the following:

    • Creates a working within a customer folder folder
    • Created employment record is based on the date with an optional description
    • Creates a subfolder in the working folder for the original files from the client to the format of files, final files, etc..
    • Highlights the Client record in the color of the red label
    • Highlights the new folder of work also in the color of the red label
    • Sets a reminder that this new job is in my ToDo list

    This script is great and works like a charm in Mountain Lion.

    However, I upgraded a system test to Yosemite and my script fails.

    I get the following error message:

    "The path variable is not defined.

    I am stuck and don't know what has changed from Cougar in Yosemite that would cause this error.

    I would really appreciate it if someone could review this script and maybe let me know how to fix this error.

  • Safari freezes several times after upgrade of El Capitan

    Hello world

    I've upgraded to El Capitan this afternoon on my MacBook Pro (late 2011 version) and since then have been essentially unable to use Safari as it freezes several times, forcing me to force to leave every time. I noticed that others on the Board had listed their etrecheck results, so mine are below.

    It has been quite frustrating - Safari was my go - to browser and seems today almost no functional for me. (Firefox works fine, no problem, then what is it with Safari?)

    Thanks in advance for any suggestions you may have.

    Hi hussein.

    EBS R12.1.1
    DB 11g (11.1.0.7)
    OEL 5.4

    We are currently implementing EBS R12.1 on our new client. We are 90% complete in our CRP (UAT).

    At this point, the customer asked to upgrade the database 11 g R2. For the reason that they always wanted the
    more later certified release of the database before moving above them.

    Our boss ask me how many days will it take to do the upgrade and what is the impact on the current trial of CRP?
    Are they repeat the testing process?

    My answer was, the upgrade will be maximally 2 days and there will be 'none' impact to the current trial of CRP.

    My answer is correct? or valid? or reasonable? or precise? or near truth?


    Thank you very much

    Hello

    Not sure about your hardware specs, but you manage to do the upgrade in one day (if you have already tested on a TEST instance first). You can ask for two days and take the time to do this upgrade. The upgrade of the database should not affect functionality of the system or test that you do.

    I think that we have already discussed what documents you need to refer to this upgrade is another thread.

    Thank you

  • Time to upgrade from 9i to 11g

    Can anyone suggest me time for the upgrade of approximate (400 GB) 9i to 11g.

    Did you read my post above? If I tell you that one upgrade I did, that you will say anything about the time of the upgrade in your own environment.
    As a general rule, no one can tell you. You even don't tell us your OS/CPU/RAM/upgrade method, but if you're upgrading from the db in place (I mean direct upgrade), the size of the database has no effect, the number of objects might have a since you will all rebuild during the upgrade process.
    You don't want to upgrade a database from test to test your application on the 11g database? If so, this will also give you an estimate period for your upgrade of production.

  • Satellite P100 - every time the upgrade no longer works

    My venerable (4 years and older) P100 finally needed a larger HARD drive and a reload. Not bad because he had 2 new covers and needs another.

    Immediately after purchase, I used the utility to upgrade Express to Ultimate that was billed by Toshiba.
    The only thing I got from Toshiba was the paid invoice.

    I made a note of the license key before work (and I still have the old disk) but the Express upgrade service is no longer supported by Microsoft and the recovery media does not give the possibility to upgrade the license.

    How can I get the version I paid for the school year?

  • GSS108E: time to upgrade the firmware

    Hi all

    I tried to update the firmare of my GSS108E to version 1.0.0.1. The firmware is only about 40%.

    then the 'Prosafe Plus Configuration Utility"indicates a timeout.

    The "PPC utility" shows a look next to the name of the switch and always only will attempt to load the firmware.

    How can I complete the update of the firmware?

    Solution here:

    Enjoy.

  • Music folder missing after upgrade to Cougar in El Capitan

    Well, for the year past (on my Mac, bought in 2011) I've been ignoring the popups that improves OSX lion mountain harassed.  Recently, I was no longer able to view certain pages on the internet, so I've upgraded to the latest version of Mac OS x (El Capitan).  I noticed that my pictures and my music folders were not present in the Finder.  I found my pictures by clicking on the color Rainbow 'flower' at the bottom of the screen, which is "Photos". Now, however, I have not found my music. Does anyone have any suggestions?
