How can you download Yosemite to a location other than Launchpad?

I am trying to make a bootable USB drive of Yosemite. When I download Yosemite from the App Store it goes into Launchpad. I can't make a bootable backup from this application. How do I get the Yosemite installer to download to my Applications folder instead of Launchpad?
Mac Pro Mid-2009
Yosemite
Thank you!

It does not download to Launchpad. Launchpad isn't a location. It downloads to the Applications folder. Copy the installer to your Downloads folder. Follow these instructions for a bootable flash drive:
How to Make an OS X Yosemite Boot Installer USB Drive
Or:
Open the Terminal in your Utilities folder. At the prompt copy and paste this entire command line:
sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite\ Developer\ Preview.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite\ Developer\ Preview.app --nointeraction
You need to have the installer in your Applications folder or change the paths in the above command line. Be sure to label your USB flash drive as, Untitled.

  • How can you download premier pro when the icon doesn't exist in cloud?[was:pr]

    how can you download premier pro when the iucon doesent exist in cloud???

    In order to download the software, your computer must meet the system requirements to run the software.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/system-requirements-premiere-pro.htmlhttp://www.adobe.com/products/premiere/tech-specs.html
    The usual reason for not being able to download is that Premiere Pro (and other video apps such as After Effects) are 64 bit only so they require a 64 bit computer and a 64 bit operating system.
    If you're running a 32 bit computer and operating system then you will not see the Premiere Pro icon since the software will not run on your computer.

    how can i download photos from mac to other hard wear device

    Depends on the actual device.
    If it's an iOS device you can sync via iTunes.
    Other devices: Export from iPhoto to the FInder and send them from there.

    I downloaded a TV show directly to my IPAD, how can I download that TV show to other devices on the same account without paying twice?

    Whether you can re-download them for free depends upon what country that you are in - tv shows can't be re-downloaded in all countries. If they show in the Purchased tab in the iTunes app on your other devices, or the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes then you can re-download them. Otherwise you can copy them from your iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases and then sync them to your other devices.

  • I have Windows7.  HOw can I download shared photostream photos from others' shared photostream

    I use Windows7.  How can I download shared photostream photos from others' shared photosteam photos using ICloud?

    How are you doing the downloading?
    If you download raw files with iPhoto, iPhoto can only edit the JPEG preview that is embedded with each raw file. iPhoto is not a true raw editor, because it's a consumer-level product, not professional-level.
    The files should remain in RAW format if you download any of these ways, by using:
    Apple Image Capture (in your Utilities folder)
    Canon Digital Photo Professional (comes with your camera, but since the 40D is so old, go to the Canon site and upgrade your copy to the latest version for compatibility with the latest Mac OS X)
    Apple Aperture
    Adobe Lightroom
    Any other professional raw organizer/editor like Capture One

    how can i transfer songs from another itunes other than mine

    Purchases made under 1 Apple ID are permanently associated with that Apple ID and CANNOT be transferred to another Apple ID.  So if you want to keep those songs, you'll need to always have access to your dad's account.

    Q: Can you use xm:multiple with Objects other than Strings?
    <br>
    A: You bet. Attached find a text file with some code from the example I showed
    today, a version of the multipleSayHiTo() method that has a parameter of an Array
    of Person objects rather than a parameter of an Array of Strings. The code within
    the text file comes from the Greeting.jws file (the Greeting Web Service).

    So you are saying that the recovery discs I made do include the copy of windows that was originally installed?
    Absolutely! They will restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents. Follow the instructions in the section Restoring from recovery DVDs/media, which begins on p. 73 of the User's Guide.

    maybe i can make a deal with wd to have them swap this drive out for the BEKT instead...
    That would be a good idea in any case.
    As I said, the 10-fc12-045d error would not be due to the drive's being AFT, but more likely the discs are not being read properly. New discs can be obtained from Toshiba. Scroll down to Get Recovery Media here
