Help - how can i un-install Yosemite

Yosemite is causing me all sorts of problems and I wish to re-instate something like SnowLeopard - think this what I had up till last week when I foolsihly changed it...I don't use Time machine so cannot do it from there. Help!!

Sorry to barge in like this but is it because you found it to have it's own way of doing stuff without your control? As i was thinking of doing the same thing because i found Mountain Lion much more user friendly.I know you came for an answer just was searching and came accross your question.
Hope you find the answer. good luck.

    Hi Buterem,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your MacBook Pro since your recent Yosemite update. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you are having intermittent but persistent responsiveness issues with your mouse or trackpad, you may want to try using Activity Monitor to see if these incidents correspond to occupied system resources, especially system memory or CPU. You may find the following article helpful:

    How can I install flash player plugin (version 8) in browser
    without
    downloading setup or redirecting to macromedia site if flash

    Thanks

    Via Javascripting. Look for Flash detection kits at the
    Adobe/Maromedia web
    site and also at Internet search engines.
    As well this forum focuses on database access issues and you
    might find more
    takers for this type of question in the Flash General forum.

  • How can I re-install Snow leopard having installed Lion? The disk supplied states that I cannot use the version of 'Install Mac OS X'...HELP!

    How can I re-install Snow leopard having installed Lion? The disk supplied states that I cannot use the version of 'Install Mac OS X'...HELP!

    None of the instructions usually given for downgrading seems to mention the fact that you will lose some data in built-in applications, including at least Mail. When you installed Lion, your Mail database was converted from the format used by Snow Leopard's Mail to that used by Lion's Mail. There is no way to reverse that conversion. Therefore, you will lose your entire Mail database. If your messages are all stored on a remote server, that may not be an insurmountable problem, but otherwise you'll have to restore from the last backup you made before the upgrade, and then you'll still lose all changes to the database made since that time.
    Another fact not often mentioned is that downgrading is usually the worst possible solution to a problem with Lion. But that's the answer to a question you didn't ask.

  • I inadvertently deleted and emptied the trash bin on Firefox. I have a MAC OSX-VERSION 10.4.11. How can I re-install the latest version of Firefox that is COMPUTER FRIENDLY for the MAC OSX Version 10.4.11? I appreciate any help.

    I inadvertently deleted Firefox and emptied the trash bin. I believe it was version 3.5. I have a MAC OSX 10.4.11. After several futile attemps how can I re-install the latest version of Firefox compatible to my MAC system? Thanks!

    As of Firefox 4.0 and newer the Firefox builds from Mozilla requires both Mac OSX 10.'''5'''+ and a Intel.
    Either you can use 3.6.19 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    Though for you 3.6.18 will be safe also as 3.6.19 was to workaround a font crashing issue on 10.7 Lion that was not fixed in time on Lion before release. http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.6.18/mac/ and pick your language and download the Firefox 3.6.18.dmg

  • How can I re-install the last version of iPhoto, I hate this new version.

    How can I re-install the last version of iPhoto. I hate this new version "Photos 1.0" which installed yesterday on my iMac. Please help. My operating system is OS X YOSEMITE 10.10.3. THANKS.

    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • I have hp 430 laptop,how can i re install the windows 7, if i not have original window on my laptop

    I have hp 430 laptop,how can i re install the windows 7, if i not have original windows on my laptop. i have oem number,
    But i have troubol to finishing installation of window.

    Originally the Notebook will have the Recovery Partition and that would give you an option to create a set of Recovery Disk. If you have not created those Recovery Disks when the Notebook was in working condition we cannot do that right now
    As of now if you need to recover your Notebook with the new Operating System you can check if the Recovery Partition is in a working condition or not, If yes you can easily recover/restore your Notebook
    If Recovery Partition is corrupted
    You need to call HP Technical Support and request for a set of Recovery Disks , So you can recover/restore your Notebook at the earliest
    OR
    You need call up Microsoft and purchase an Operating System with the License Key, So you can recover/restore your Notebook at the earliest
    I strongly recommend you to Contact HP Technical Support over the Phone for further assistance without any delay
    Hope this helps, for any further queries reply to the post and feel free to join us again

    Since Windows 2003 Services ending we moving Sharepoint Services 3.0 to Windows 2008R2,
    Any help how can this be done ?
    We have 1 Server and single Farm.
    I have build New 2008 R2 Server and planning to restore Backup taken from Old server to this new server. Will this work ?
    Which version of Sharepoint should i install on Windows 2008 R2 server , i run sharepoint.exe downloaded but it throws error

    Sorry for late reply.
    Your next step is, create a new web application and deattach the content DB from new web application. You need to attach existing CDB to that web app.
    Here is some links for your ref (unfortunately this is for 2010 but it same steps should work in WSS as well)

  • How Can I re-Install Bootcamp? I deleted it from my applications somehow.

    I have recently purchased an i7 core processor MacBook Pro and I am trying to install BootCamp so I can run a Windows program. I have 2 other MacBooks running BootCamp (one Windows XP and the other Windows 7).When I tried to run the Windows XP install DVD the MacBook wouldn't read it (I have an update DVD to upgrade to Windows 7 once XP is installed). Appearently XP is no longer supported by BootCamp, so I will get a Windows 7 install disk.
    I have somehow merged BootCamp and it is no longer in my applications list in Finder. How can I re-install BootCamp? Is there a way to do this without wiping the disk clean and re-installing the Snow Leopard OS?
    I also have a Parallels 6 DVD. Should I just use it and forget running BootCamp? I'm running Mac OS X 10.6.8 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7 with 4 GB 1067MHz DDR3.
    Thank You For Your Help,
    Curt

    If the computer came with 10.7 Lion installed NEW then you cannot install XP or Vista now. If it's an older one then you can still use XP and upgrade to Lion and it will still work.
    You do not have to install XP in order to Upgrade to W7. It will just erase and install over XP anyway. You cannot merge the OS together like you would with VIsta and W7. That's the only way you can install W7 over XP is a clean install. You already have the legal XP disk so you can just skip that step and just go to installing the Upgrade version of W7 as it is mentioned by Microsoft. There are a few ways of installing with the Upgrade version the easiest way is to just install W7 normally then without updating or authorizing it reinstall over the new install and then you can authorize it and update it normally and all is good.
    I'm not sure what you mean by merged Boot Camp?
    Have you done a search in Spotlight for "Boot Camp Assistant" and see what it says? Worst case scenario you can just re-install (Restore?) 10.6 over itself and it will just reinstall the core OS without deleting anything else. Click on your empty desktop and at the top of the Apple Menu click on Help and type in Reinstalling Mac OS X and follow the instructions.
    Also you do have an Application Disk along with the OS disk to restore applications with, Boot Camp Assistant should be on there, you will just have to make sure to use the Apple Software Updater to make sure it gets updated before you need it.
    As far as using VMWare/Parallels, if you have a heavy duty program that is processor heavy or needs a lot of ram then you may need to use Boot Camp for the native use of the hardware. If you don't need the full Proc or lot's of ram then a Virtual disk is fine. Myself I use both, I can boot into Windows for the heavy programs and stay in the Mac side and use Parallels for the lighter applications. I'm still using 10.6 so I don't have it installed on my Lion HD yet so I don't know how Version 6.x works in Lion.

  • How can I successfully install a newly purchased Adobe Photoshop CS6? Step by step ....

    How can I successfully install a newly purhcased Adobe Photoshop CS 6? I've tried many, many times but always run into something which seems not to work the way it's supposed to. I can't tell you what I've done, it's been too many things. I want to start at the beginning. I need a step by step, preferable over the phone, talk through the process.

    There's not enough information here or in your other post http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1105936 to help you at the moment.
    Which operating system? Cloud or disk version or download version?
    Any error messages? what do they say?
    Download or disk: It should be a case of double click the installer, enter your serial and let the installer finish.

    Hi MarcoMazzone,
    Please open finder and then go to  Applications/utilities/Adobe Installers/
    You might find the uninstallers for CS6 ( design prem/stndard or master collection) or Photoshop CS6.
    If you see any of them just double click on the uninstaller and follow the prompts on the screen to uninstall the product.
    Close Adobe application manager and reopen it, You will see the photoshop as available.
    Thanks

  • How Can i Remove installed program on my MacBook

    Sombody tell me How can i remove installed Programm on my MacBook

    Depends entirely on the application.
    If it was installed in the first place by dragging it's icon to the Applications folder, then dragging to the trash should be all that's needed. It may leave a .plist file, but that's not going to do any harm.
    If it was installed using an Installer, then it usually means there will be support files in various places, and an uninstaller is best used to remove all the files. Often the Installer will have an uninstall option (so keep the .dmg downloads), but some apps will need you to go to the vendor's website for one (several Adobe apps fall in this category).
    If no uninstaller is available, there are third-party programmes to help you find all the various files associated with an app.
    AppDelete and AppZapper are two that spring to mind. These can have variable success depending on how the individual files are named, but in general do a reasonable job.
