Apple is just throttling computers so as to sell another computer you cannot win on the Apple OS or MSFT system.

Os X Mavericks Dmg Download The Prior

This is typically something only advanced users would want to do, perhaps for making a bootable installer for the older OS X version, for upgrading a different Mac, or even to downgrade (more on that in a moment), but unless you have a compelling reason to download the prior OS X release installer there is little other reason to do this.

Users who wish to accomplish that could either use an old Time Machine backup, use internet recovery, perform a clean Mavericks install, or follow this to make a bootable installer drive for OS X Mavericks, all of which are much more technical processes that are not going to be covered here.

Do not attempt to install OS X Mavericks over an existing OS X Yosemite installation, it will not work and you will almost certainly break something which could result in file loss or worse.

If you never previously downloaded it or installed it on a Mac, you will not find the installer available on that account.

The button in the list of the Purchases tab in your App Store app will then be live and not dimmed.

If you try to redownload on any other Mac, all you get will be a dimmed downloaded button.

In purchased, it says Downloaded for the Mavericks installer and is greyed out.

But, for some reason, every copy I have of the Mavericks installer says that there is something wrong with the file.

So very confused I have a flash drive that is a Mavericks boot disk and then that stopped working without warning.

The trick is to set your clock back in time to before the certificate problem occurred, this can mean setting the clock back a year or more sometimes, aim for when the installer was released.

Os X Mavericks Dmg Upgrade Maybe Ruin

Rather than upgrade maybe ruin it, I bought another wYosemite.

I certainly agree with If it aint broke, dont fix it but now the Apple GeniusBar Guru is recommending that I upgrade it to Maverick to stay current with.

He says I wont see much difference they can help wthe Install.

Any comments from here re SL vs.

Mav. and the wisdom of doing the upgrade on my older, back-up Laptop Thanks.

If it works for you as is, there is little reason to update it.

OS X Mavericks is somewhere between OK and decent, Mavericks is way better than Mountain Lion or the disaster that was Lion.

Like somebody said their are people out their who are loyal Apple Users and will never say bad things about Apple.

Apple has made the perfect system of making people continually buying another computer.

Which do you really need a computer if you have a pencil Wait till your wifi car wont start and its snowing out will Apple offer a discount at some expensive hotel nearby or did you remember to bring your -50 degree sleeping bag your tent.

Ever hear of Broadband thru the electrical system Electric companies use to read your meter by sending a guy out, nowdays their device uses the broadband over the electrical system which few know about mainly ham operators as the radios nowdays are computers and all sorts of weird things happen to the radio govt spying probably.

Which is why Apple has stopped all forms of fixing their systems.

If a mega computer system is just going to create more problems (we are told hackers, but wonder if the Chinese have Mac problems ).

Hence, look at all the apps for n the app center which are worthless.

Steve Job knew this was going to happen, hence is why Cook doesnt give a oot either.
