How to clean install Maverick

How to clean install maveraick back from Yosemite.

If you reinstall Mavericks, yes; unless you previously downloaded it from your Apple ID, you won't be able to install it.
If you reinstall the computer's original OS, no.

  • How to clean-install Mavericks to a fusion drive?

    Because I cannot find a complete answer here or anywhere else, I seek information about reinstalling Mavericks on a 1TB fusion drive on my late 2013 iMac. I see discussions about reinstalling, backing up data, Boot Camp issues, rebuilding a fusion drive, making a fusion drive from scratch, and the like; but I do not find the level of detail I am seeking about starting over with a fusion drive. I upgraded to Mavericks from Mtn Lion and now see hints that I needed to do something special to take advantage of the properties of this drive.
    That said, here are my questions:
    (1) When I "Command-R" reboot to Recovery and get to the Disk Utility, I see a separate 1TB HD as an extended partition as well as a 125GB drive that is root (/), which I presume is the SSD. To accomplish the clean installation, do I format BOTH? Or will formatting only the 1TB HD suffice? Does formatting only the 1TB HD also take care of formatting the SSD? Maybe it's not advisable to format the SSD ...?
    (2) Does the downloaded Mavericks installer loaded onto a USB stick using DiskMakerX have the capability to do this clean install properly? or is it necessary, in order to take advantage of the fusion drive properties (SSD+HD), to download Mavericks Installer after wiping the HD so that support for the fusion drive is maintained?
    (3) Because I am curious, where does OS X (I mean the OS, not data) reside after the installation is done? on the SSD? on the HD? I ask this because I have read that "the OS remains on the SSD," but, seemingly in conflict, that the SSD is for quick access to frequently used programs and data. Both could be correct.
    Sorry for the length of this. And thanks.

    The screenshot of DU within the booted Mavericks, not Recovery.

    And you know what this is, per your request. It shows the OS on the SSD portion, the Recovery partition on the HD, etc. It's a little confusing because the disk reference numbers do not agree with those in the screenshot below, but that probably is because the shot below results from booting from a USB stick.
    Now to your comments/answers/thoughts:
    (1) Issue of number of drives. This is a fuzzy iPhone screenshot of DU after booting from a USB Mavericks installation stick:
    Looks like I cannot format the SSD directly, if that is what disk5 really is. Below I mention another possibility for getting it formatted (third paragraph from the end).
    (2) Which source for new installation of Mavericks
    I agree that it's probably best not to use the USB stick I have but to use the Recovery method to download a fresh copy. I'm not sure about the reliability of the USB vs downloading, either, but there is some evidence out there (somewhere -- I've seen it but I don't recall where) suggesting it.
    (3) Where OS X is installed -- fusion drive portion or HD portion of the Macintosh HD:
    From the information given with "disk5" in the screen shot just above, it does appear that after a USB boot, DU sees items separately, including the main storage (Macintosh HD), the Recovery partition (disk4-used also for creating the USB stick installer), and OS (disk5). Some of this layout may hold true with a "Command-R" boot from the Recovery partition, and I know I've looked at it but for the moment cannot recall the information.
    Further, it appears the OS is on the SSD. It also appears it cannot be formatted UNLESS such formatting occurs when the target for the formatting process is "Macintosh HD." I am inclined to believe now that when I make this clean reinstallation, the new copy of OS X will be put on the SSD portion, as you state. I am aware that the moving of data back and forth from SSD to HD is outside user control.
    Lowluster, thank you for answering my questions in such an organized fashion (that I can follow!). I feel confident now about proceeding even though not all questions are answered definitively.
    Allan, I'm glad to know about fusing separately an SSD with an HD. It will be useful should I run into another user's desire to create a fusion drive. Thank you again.

  • Clean Install mavericks? CC question

    Hi,
    I know how to clean install mavericks on my mac as that's very simple but:
    I know I should deactivate Creative Cloud on this machine first, But it's not deactivated on my time machine backups so:
    When I reinstall from my time machine backup all my files and apps this isn't going to work with Creative Cloud is it? as
    the Time Machine backup will reinstall a fully activated version of Creative Cloud completely messing up my adobe account and
    making Adobe think I've installed it fraudulently on a third Mac, (copy already installed on another as allowed in the licence agreement).
    It will see this as a third copy I think.
    I hope you can see what I mean from this explanation of what I think will happen if I try a clean install from my time machine backup.
    What is the correct way on a Mac to do a clean install and reactivate Creative Cloud please without using up a licence.
    It's so confusing the possibilities appear to be endless for mess-ups.
    Thanks

    Hi Kuldeep,
    I'm sorry you got me confused for a second there, you started talking about un-installing when I hand't mentioned it and this confused me with my first replly to you. I don't think you read my question, I'm not talking at any time about uninstalling the apps I'm talking about deactivating, completely different with on my web connection about 6 hours difference in time.
    What I don't know is what I asked above:
    I already know about the licence agreement as I'd stated so why did you tell me like I hand't mentioned it?
    Rather than I repeat myself could I ask you to read the first post before replying. I don't mean to be rude but you can't have read it to come back with your answer.
    Thanks
    Bill
    I will repeat is a slightly different way just in case this helps anyone:
    (On a computer that already has a registered copy of CC on it but needs re-formatting):
    1: I can deactivate CC
    2: I re-format and restore my computer from it's time machine backups
    3: The copy of CC on my Time Machine backups is not de-activated is it? I don't know how this would work (this is the crux of the problem that I won't be able to fix afterwards).
    4: If it is deactivated, can't see how, but everything is fine and I carry on and the problem is solved.
    5: If it isn't deactivated Adobe think I've installed CC on a third computer without permission and get very upset and put my account on hold and stop me from earning money.

  • I just clean installed maverick on my computer and I have nothing in my iTunes library, how can I get back all the music I have bought?

    I just clean installed maverick on my computer and I have nothing in my iTunes library, how can I get back all the music I have bought?

    From your backups. By doing a clean install you erased your startup volume. You may have installed OS X, but your personal software was erased. You can restore from backups if your have them. If not, then you've lost it all, permanently.

  • REALLY Clean Install Mavericks

    I have a 13" Late 2012 MBP which I upgraded with a Crucial M500 SSD on which I clean installed Mavericks the day after its launch. The SSD was brand new then, so this was the first thing it was used for, straight out of the box.
    Now, I have a "talent" of messing with system files and I may have done something wrong here and there, because OS X is not as smooth as it was supposed to be (for example, compared with 10.8.5 which I previously had on it). App crashes here and there, Safari being very slow or "forgetting" that I clicked on a link etc.
    I have verified and repaired the startup disk (from Recovery Mode), same with the permissions, I scanned and repaired it with OnyX but still it doesn't perform as expected.
    So I decided to reinstall Mavericks, from scratch. As I would really hate to "inherit" some of these bugs on the new install, I REALLY want to to start fresh. So I need a clean install, free of any doubts, just like if it were brand new again.
    Are there any tips other than the normal clean install? By normal clean install I understand making a bootable USB with 10.9, booting from it, erasing the startup drive with Disk Utility and then installing from the USB. (I prefer the USB method, since it would take a while to download 10.9 from Apple, i.e. using Internet Recovery).
    And by the way, do you recommend a specific method of doing a bootable 10.9 USB? I tend to use the way via Terminal, but I also heard of DiskMakerX as an alternative.
    And last but not least...am I paranoid? Should I worry less and simply do a straight clean install, as this is *really* the *really* good way to go?

    ⌘R on Boot, Utilities->Disk Utility, Erase Disk, exit Disk Utility, Reistall OS X Mavericks.
    (I prefer the USB method, since it would take a while to download 10.9 from Apple, i.e. using Internet Recovery).
    edit: Or that...
    And by the way, do you recommend a specific method of doing a bootable 10.9 USB? I tend to use the way via Terminal, but I also heard of DiskMakerX as an alternative.

  • Clean install Mavericks on partition

    I have searched and read several discussions related to this, but am still uncertain about just what I can and cannot do.  I consider myself an experienced, knowledgeable but casual Mac user.
    I have 10.6.8 on my IMac late 2009, so am able to upgrade to Mavericks.  I have held off ever since it was released because "If it ain't broke, don't fix it".  But now that I have an iPad, I think I need to move up.  But many upgrade horror stories have kept me from doing it.  Comments appreciated on the following:
    I have a 500GB hard drive that has 363GB free.  There are 2 partitions.  One is my working 10.6.8 @ 450GB.  The other is a stripped-down copy of 10.6.8 @ 50GB that I intended to keep should I need to run something that requires Rosetta.  Then I had the brainstorm, which I see has occurred to others: CLEAN INSTALL Mavericks on a new partition [I know how to use Disk Utility to do reduce the 450GB and define a third partition] and leave my working 10.6.8 as is [and delete the copy of 10.6.8 as it would be no longer necessary].  I think I know the answer that, yes, this can be done.  And that, in fact, a clean install is preferable.
    If I do the clean install, will Mavericks ask me if I want to transfer my data files, settings, mail, prefs, etc. from the working 10.6.8, and will I be able to point it to that system to find and transfer?  Or will I be faced with manually finding and moving all that stuff?
    What about the apps?  Same story?
    What about the PowerPC and Classic [yes, I still have some sitting there] apps?  Will Mavericks ignore them rather than move them?
    Several posts suggested using an external HD instead of a new partition for doing something like this.  I don't understand why.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Clean install = YES!  Installing Mavericks over your Snow Leopard environment will destroy it!
    Classic apps - how are you running them now?  The Classic Environment was eliminated when OS X Tiger 10.4 moved to Intel.
    Here are some thoughts about running Classic apps on an Intel Mac, that I previously assembled:
    With the newer Intel Macs, you have to run a Classic emulator such as SheepShaver, which requires you to extract the Mac ROMs from your older Classic Mac and then install Mac OS 9.
    A related program is Chubby Bunny, which comes bundled with all of that included.

    Thanks

    It's going to be impossible to install Mavericks unless you have a working Mavericks-USB-installer or an  "install OS X Mavericks.dmg" that YOU have downloaded from the App Store in the past.
    You should use a Snow Leopard install DVD to install 10.6.8 Snow Leopard on your Mac. From there, you can use your  "install OS X Mavericks.dmg" to install Mavericks. If you don't have that, you can download and install Yosemite from the Mac App Store instead.
    If you don't have either a Snow Leopard install DVD or a custom made Mavericks-installer-USB, you should call Apple and buy a Snow Leopard install DVD from them. They're still for sale.
    The other option is to use another, still functioning, Mac and connect the two using a firewire cable. Then you can use Target Disk Mode to install Mavericks or Yosemite on your Mac http://support.apple.com/nl-nl/ht1661

  • How do I install Mavericks onto a new SSD HD in my late 2008 MacBook Pro?

    How do I install Mavericks onto a new SSD HD in my late 2008 Macbook Pro, and then I  hopefully can reinstall my data from my Time Machine backup?
    I presume the SSD will need some type of formatting, before I can install Mavericks from the internet? Then can I use my Time Machine backup to reinstall all my other software and settings?

    In order to load Mavericks the SSD will have to be formatted Mac OS Extended with GUID partition mapping

  • Trying to clean install Mavericks onto OSX 10.5.8

    I am trying to clean insall an old 2008 MacBook Pro that has OSX 10.5.8 currently installed. I made a mavericks usb installer with another updated MacBook Pro. The clean install was sucessful with the other Mac, but that one was already running Mavericks before I clean installed. Just wondering if my thinkning is correct that I can back up the OSX 10.5.8 Mac using timemachine and then clean install mavericks after. Please just confirm that this can be done.

    you need at least 10.6.8 to install Mavericks as an upgrade.
    A clean install would be doable if you meet all the req.
    To install Mavericks, you need one of these Macs:
    iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
    MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
    MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later),
    MacBook Pro (15-inch or 17-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or later)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    Your Mac also needs:
    OS X Mountain Lion, Lion, or Snow Leopard v10.6.8 already installed
    2 GB or more of memory
    8 GB or more of available space

  • Clean install Mavericks on new hard drive

    Hello,
    I have a Early 2009 Mac Pro that is currently running Mavericks (10.9.1). There are currently three hard drives in it:
    2-1 TB Hitachi HDE721010SLA330 (1 as Boot drive & 1 as secondary storage, both from factory)
    1-3 TB Seagate ST3000DM001-1CH16 (being used as a Time Machine Drive)
    I want to replace the boot 1 TB drive with a second 3 TB Seagate ST3000DM001. I understand the process for clean installing Mavericks. I know that I'll have to reinstall all my apps and such. Will the cleanly installed Mavericks on the new drive be able to recognize the 2nd 1 TB storage drive as-is? Also, will Time Machine restore my iMovie projects back in place as they are now? And also, not exactly a huge issue if it would arise, but would my VirtualBox VMs be restored to where they are (I know I'll have to re-add them back into VB, that's not a big deal.
    I just want to do this as "cleanly" as possible (even though though i know that probably won't be the case, never is with computers).
    If I need to provide any more information I would be glad to. Thank you for any help in advance!

    Make A Bootable OS X Mavericks USB Install Drive With DiskMaker X
    Monday, December 23rd, 2013 | Author: OWC Jarrod and OWC Joseph 
    Last week, Apple released its Mavericks update with the 10.9.1 version of the operating system – which we hope fixes a few bugs that we saw in the first iteration released Oct. 22.
    And if the latest update has you finally looking to upgrade your Mac to the new version of the operating system, it’s worth noting that like its predecessors – beginning with OS X 10.7 – Mavericks is only available for install via download from the Mac App Store.
    This means those who previously relied on DVD installs will be unable to do so with this version. Luckily, DiskMaker X helps fill the void by allowing you to make a bootable OS X 10.9 Mavericks USB install drive.
    What’s really great about this software is like OS X Mavericks, the DiskMaker X software won’t cost you a thing (however, donations are accepted). All you need is an 8 GB (minimum) USB thumb drive, a USB, FireWire, or Thunderbolt drive or an SD-Card, the OS X 10.9 Mavericks Installer from the App Store, and the DiskMaker X application.
    DiskMaker X is fairly straightforward and will guide you through the process of making your install drive. It should be noted that DiskMaker X erases the volume or the drive you chose, according to the options you chose. So don’t forget to backup your data first!

  • Clean install Mavericks & restore 2 users from backup?

    I have an 24" iMac from Early 2008 that has been through numerous OSX upgrades and is currently at the latest 10.9.3.  For the past year or more it has been experiencing random freezing and white, blue, other "screen of death".  I've run Apple hardware diagnostics and nothing wrong has been reported.
    After 6 years of daily use, all the upgrades, etc.  I'm thinking perhaps I should just wipe it clean, reinstall Mavericks and see if that takes care of the issues.  I have an external 1TB drive that is used by Time Machine.  The computer has 2 users, mine and my wife's and both have Time Machine enabled.
    What are the necessary steps to clean install Mavericks and restore the 2 users and data from the backup?
    Thanks!

  • How to clean install Yosemite

    How to clean install Yosemite on imac 10.9.5

    Why?
    Doing an erase and install of OS X is usually just a waste of time.
    I recommend that you just upgrade and test it first.

  • How to completely clean install Mavericks?

    Title sums it up...I want to do a completely clean install of Mavericks, making it as if I just bought the laptop with Mavericks installed. I do not currently have access to a big enough USB so if there is a way to do this without one that would be preferable.

    Mr. Gagné wrote:
    I am still running Mountain Lion. So, I need to install Mavericks, then do a standard hard drive wipe/OS re-install?
    If you're on Mountain Lion and you want to do a clean install, the Recovery Partition is available for you to boot into and run the OS X installer. There is no need to install Mavericks if all you want to do is clean install.

  • How do I install Mavericks without invoking the OSX Server Plugin?

    How do I perfrom a clean install of Mavericks from the Recovery Partition without it automatically installing, and then invoking or executing the OSX Server Plugin that ultimately results in rendering open directory operable as well as the server.  I have ignored this continously, but the other day I went into the terminal and typed ARP -s that lists the shortname for the host of my MacBook Pro and it gave a totally different name than what I had given it in the wi-fi network interface under the WINS tab. More importantly, I do not want to install open directory nor the osx server plugin as it opens up more complexity than I want to deal with.  Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.  BTW, below are the steps I performed for installing Mavericks.
    1. Powered on the MacBook Pro and then hit the Option key.
    2. This took me into the Recovery Partition, whereby I went into the Disk Util and erased or formatted the hard-drive.
    3. I then clicked out of the Disk Utility and went into the Recovery Mode by clicking on reinstall the current OS.
    4. I went through all the prompts and the system downloaded a current version of Mavericks.
    5. After completion, I turned on my Macbook Pro and went through the prompts to install Mavericks.
    6. This is all I did, and I didn't download the OSX plugin nor invoke it in the new version of the Operating System. 
    I just assumed that it was a standalone version until I found the server for osx running with open directory invoked, the server invoked, along
    with other components relative to a new standalone version.
    Again, my question is simple: How can I reinstall Mavericks without it downloading and automatically
    iinvoking the components as described above? 

    Hi. Because both Mavericks and Windows 8 are still new, they may not be free of error. Apple needs more time to perform more tests to ensure that these two different OS's will work properly without getting in conflicts. If it's posdible, I highly recommand you to downgrade back to Lion or Mountain Lion and install Windows 7 (if you have a copy of it). In my experience, all advises from Genius Bar members and computer articles confirm that  Windows 7 will work on Macs with Lion OS. It should also work on Mountain Lion. Besides Boot Camp, you could try to virtualize Windows OS and its applications by using VirtualBox, CrossOver and other VMs. I already have an Oracle VirtualBox but I would like to try Boot Camp since it allows me to enjoy almost all Windows features that may be limited in VMs.
