How do I install a Mavericks partition when running Yosemite?

Hi I have Yosemite running on my Macbook 2009 and need to run a program called MAPP PRO by  Meyer Sound which will only run in Mavericks or older.
I have erased a 16gb USB stick in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and have a download link for Mavericks still in the App Store. There is a lot of info on installing Yosemite as a partition on an existing Mavericks systems but not the other way round. How do I best proceed as there seem to be different techniques on each page I look at!
PS For some reason there is no option to post in a Yosemite specific community, so it's here. ???
Regards
Gareth

I'll ask the hosts to move your post.
Creating a partition isn't hard. Restart with command - R held down and open Disk Utility. Step 3 - grab the //// to slide the partition up to make room for a new partition. Step 4 - select the vacant space and hit the + sign.  Step 5- Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and add a name. Step 5a, click and select GUID.

    You aren't losing any time in that mode, but I believe it is a 10 second fade out/fade in.

  • How can I install virtualized mavericks on Mac? Parallels or VMWare?

    I need to use safari(mac) to test my website, However safari is also my default browser.
    It will cause some problems while debugging, because safari is also my default browser, I need to ignore a lot of non-development http requests/responses data.
    Also, sometimes, I need to empty the cache to ensure I got a fresh installed safari to test, that would be very inconvenient if safari is my default browser.
    Usually, I use Virtualbox to install Windows/Linux on my Mac to test different browsers.
    For safari, I hope I can do it in similar way. That said, to have a virtualized Mac vm on my mac, so I can have an independent safari browser for test.
    I don't want to spend a lot of time to investigate how to do it on Virtualbox, and I don't know if Virtualbox figure out a way to do it now or not.
    It seems Parallels and VMWare provides easier way to install mac mavericks vm on mac.
    for example, I can see this
    http://kb.parallels.com/118806
    I am wondering if Apple suggests an official or easier way for developer to test safari. To buy Parallels or VMWare?

    I've attempted to install Mavericks as a VM in BOTH.
    Fusions was so "choppy" and slow, it was impossible to use, and it wouldn't run bigger than 1024X768, or go "Full Screen". Pretty useless with dual 1920X1080 monitors.
    Parallels was slightly more manageable, but I still had performance and resolution problems. While I could go bigger than 1024X768, the resolutions it would allow were 1600X1200 and 1920X1400, with No "Full Screen" option available either. Those sizes left me unable to access my dock or the bottom 120 to 320 pixels of my desktop or any open window.
    Installing was no problem. I used my 10.8 installer, and once I had the VM up & running, either the AppStore or a previously downloaded Mavericks installer will do.
    Note: BOTH VMS were set up with 2 cores and 4Gb RAM so, it wasn't a matter of resources. Mavericks just doesn't perform that well as a VM yet. I'm pretty sure VMWare and Parallels need to make app updates to handle it better.

  • How do I install LION and partition SL 10.6.8 run on same imac?

    Hello If one could tell me step by step instructions:
    I would like to install LION ( because icloud), but can I install LION and partition the OS so that my imac can run both SL 10.6.8 and LION?
    SL 10.6.8 still runs some applications that LION will never be able to run.
    So I really need LION installed,but also have SL 10.6.8 partitioned so I can run imovie HD6 with plug ins with SL 10.6.8.
    Please if this can be done so I can run Lion and SL 10.6.8 on same computer
    thank you so much in advance
    please advise
    scott

    Wow, thank you Niel.  I have looked on this site and have found many different ways listed on partitioning and using 2 OS on a computer.  But there steps seemed very long and tedious- but of  course if that is what is needed then i would do it that way. Again i was seeing a lot of different ways. But yours seemed direct.
    I went thru the steps up until using the thumb drive for LION to install. I went in to  disk utilities, i selected mydrive, clicked on the partition tab, and then i saw i had 96.7 GB available--without changing SL10.6.8 HD size.
    it looks like you can drag and increase/decrease the partitions with the mouse control.
    I really need LION for icloud, and if so all other applications EXCEPT imovieHD6
    So i need to run SL for imovieHD6 the other applications like word, adobe creative suite, excel, etc ican use LION.
    do you recommend having the partitions equal in GB?
    I have a 250gb hard drive
    should I split the partitions evenly between the two OS?
    or should one OS get more GB than another?

  • How can i install my hp printer when there is no cd port on my 2011 macbook air

    How can I install a printer to my macbook air which has no cd port?  I have a basic hp printer.

    You won't need to. As long as the computer "sees" the printer it will automatically download any needed software for it. I have one of the HP wireless printers and as soon as my Air saw it on my wirelss network it told me there was software available for it and asked if I wanted to download it which I did. No cd/DVD needed.

  • How to change report displayname at runtime when run from the report server?

    hi all,
    with the reportviewer widget in a winforms app, i'm able to change report displayname at runtime by handling thesubmittingparametervalues event like so:
            private void reportViewer1_SubmittingParameterValues(object sender, ReportParametersEventArgs e)
                string po = e.Parameters["Order"].Values[0];
                this.reportViewer1.ServerReport.DisplayName = "Load Out - " + po + " - " + DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString();
    question: how do i achieve the same thing when the report is run via the ssrs reportserver website?
    thanks for any tips,
    sff

    Hi sherifffruitfly2,
    According to your description, you want to change the display name of report in Report Manager. Right?
    In Reporting Services, we can't make the report file name dynamically. But we have Build-in Fields to show report name and execution time in a report. We can add a textbox and put in the expression below:
    ="Load on- "+Globals!ReportName+" "+Globals!ExecutionTime
    It will show the report name with execution time when we run the report:
    Reference:
    Built-in Collections in Expressions (Report Builder and SSRS)
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
    Best Regards,
    Simon Hou

  • How to invoke the shutdown event tracker when running restart-computer

    In Windows command shell, it is possible to run shutdown /d to specify a reason code and /c to enter a comment into the shutdown event tracker to log why a shutdown was being performed.
    I'm not seeing an equivalent parameter for the restart-computer cmdlet in PowerShell.  Is it possible to invoke the shutdown event tracker when running restart-computer?

    help restart-computer 
    says no.  There's nothing wrong with using native commands, in a number of cases they are better than what PS provides.

  • How to download / install ARD 3.7.2 for Yosemite?

    I was running Yosemite Beta. I had 10.10 beta 6 installed on my MacPro tower (aka the shiny black trashcan). Downloaded and installed the 10.10 final version, and all appeared well. ARD was - and is - working. To be clear : ARD Admin 3.7.2 (372a19) was already installed and working before upgrading to 10.10 final.
    Software update now bugs me that I have a few updates to do, so I thought no biggie : download and install them via Update All. Partway through the process the following error message pops up in the Software Update window of the App Store :
    "We could not complete your purchase.
    Remote Desktop is already installed on this computer. Choose Software Update from the Apple menu to check for available updates."
    Oooook. I have already purchased ARD. I am already in Software Update. It should be trying to run an update only. So I tried quitting out of Software Update completely, and re-starting the whole software update process over (via the GUI). Same result. So off to the command line we go...
    softwareupdate -l
    Finding available software
    No new software available.
    W.T.H?!?
    Ok, delete the com.apple.Softwareupdate.plist. Check again. Same result. Ok... crack open the .plist and here is the URL generated by the OS replacing the file I deleted : https://swscan.apple.com/content/catalogs/others/index-10.10beta-10.10-10.9-moun tainlion-lion-snowleopard-leopard.merged…
    According to what I know of the default URL on SU, that's looking correct to me. So at this point I am officially stumped. It would appear the problem is on Apple's end, as I cannot find anything on this end which would account for that behavior. It's really weirding me out that the command line says there are no updates available, while the GUI says there is. If anyone can toss me a bone, it would be appreciated very, very much.

    Here is the fix for ARD showing in the App store and not letting you update.
    1. Download the 3.7.2 ARD update from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1733
    2. Mount the ARD disk image that downloads.
    3. Run the following commands in the Terminal
          sudo pkgutil --expand /Volumes/Apple\ Remote\ Desktop\ 3.7.2\ Admin\ Update/RemoteDesktopAdmin372.pkg ~/Desktop/ARD
          sudo pkgutil --flatten ~/Desktop/ARD/RemoteDesktopAdmin372.pkg ~/Desktop/RemoteDesktopAdmin.pkg
    4. Run the RemoteDesktopAdmin.pkg now located on your Desktop
    5. Restart your Mac
    6. Launch ARD, and enter in the serial number if requested.
