If ONLY the original Dev Beta is installed, will GM Candidate install over this without intervening betas?

I have an odd problem.
I installed the Yosemite dev beta back in August, and have all the intervening beta patches AND the GM Patch. My 7 1/2 year old iMac is failing, so I ordered a new one. It's supposed to be in today, and want to get it up to the Yosemite GM release.
So - is it possible to download and update JUST the original Yosemite beta, and then when I go to App Store, I will download and install ONLY the GM Candidate, and skip betas 2-8? It just takes my internet connection forever to download all the betas (due to size), and I'd basically just like to "cut to the chase" as they say.
Is that possible, or am I doomed to download and install each beta (fighting the debacles of beta 2 all over again)?

this is not possible. Snow leopard Mail will not work with any other version of OS X. you need to install Snow leopard if you want to run it.

Using iPhoto, I want to move photo from one event to another I export it to desktop and then reimport. Titles and other info vanish; only the original jpg number comes thru. How do I avoid this?

Don't do that - flag the photo and go to the target event and use the add flagged photo to selected event command to move it intact within iPhoto

Yes, whenever you cannot find something you want at the iBookstore, you simply need to try the other free ereader apps like Kindle, Nook, Kobo, and Googlebooks and see if one of them has it.

How to repair disc on second partition iMac 27? 10.6.8, but second is still 10.6.3. Can I use the original 10.6.3 install disc to start, and then go to the side needing repair?

Partitioned iMac 27, Sept. 2010. Verify disc on HD2 says "corrupted, needs repair," unspecified. "Use install disc to repair." HD2 is isolated from Internet since birth. HD 10.6.8, but HD2 is still 10.6.3. Can I use the original 10.6.3 install disc to start, and then go to the side needing repair, without a problem?
Part 2: After 4 years, suddenly when HD2 is revived from sleep, it makes an Internet connection, all settings are the same, Network shows Ethernet is unplugged, but the indicator from modem shows connection. Maybe connected to first part of my question, but maybe not.
Thank you.

Have you seen this type of problem before? I think it could be a serious issue for anyone in a similar position.
No; but then, I've not had occasion to use TDM. I've been using firerwire drives for over 10 years, both FW400 and FW800, with no issues except a bit of instability using a B&W G3 machine.
TDM should be safe. Using cautious, manual copying of files from the Target machine to the Host machine should not result in unexpected loss of files or damage to the Target drive's directories. It should behave exactly the same as if it were an external (to the Host) firewire drive.
• I don't suppose there is anything I can do to 'put back' lost items from a separate Time Machine drive which has an up to date backup on it.
There is probably a way to do that - seems to me that's one of the reasons for a Time Machine volume.
On the other hand, if the Time Machine volume is rigidly linked to the now-absent OS on the original drive, there may be no way to effectively access the files in the TM archive.
I know that using a cloned drive would work well in this instance.
I have no experience with Time Machine, so perhaps someone who has will chime in with suggestions.
With the machine in TDM with the other machine, have you tried running Disk Utility to see if you can effect repairs to the drive?

Try recovery mode. I think this should work. You can read the instructions here.

Before I install snow leopard, I tried to move tiger into the external harddrive. My mac says it can't do because it is the OS X. So I installed snow leopard without removing tiger. After that, my computer often freezes. How can I remove tiger?

When you installed Snow Leopard, Tiger was replaced, leaving your programs and files intact.
What is causing your freezing problem is unknown, you can take Kappy's advice and remove everything, but you lose your files and free iLife programs that came with Tiger/new machine.
The 10.6.3 disk you "upgraded" with has the full 10.6.3 on it, but no free iLife suit, so a erase and install will remove what you already have installed.
You can try to locate your problem without the erase and install method by running through this list of fixes.
Step by Step to fix your Mac
But before you do anything, backup your personal data off the machine to a extenal drive and disconnect.
Most commonly used backup methods
Because if you have to follow Kappy's advice and wipe and install 10.6 fresh, it will cure your problem in nearly 99% of cases, but you have to rebuild everything. All programs and files.
How to erase and install Snow Leopard 10.6
If this is all too much for you, then STOP and call a local PC/Mac service or competant friend to assist you.
Yuo might need to install more RAM into the machine to make 10.6 run better as well.

When I share a pages document as a PDF (via e-mail) all the pictures change from the original document, most are missing with just a few of them repeated in the spots where others had been. How do I do this without the document changing?

I need to be able to send it to a PC in order to print it.

Hard to say what is happening without examining the file.
If you like click on my blue name and email me both the .pages file and the the .pdf you have made from it.

ps It would help to say what version of Pages you are using and on what you are running it. iOS or Mac and what version.

HT4972 I replaced the computer I originally used to synch my iPhone. I get the message stating that my content will be erased, even though this is the computer I now synch with. Is there a way to make the update recognize the new computer?

I replaced the computer I originally used to synch my iPhone. When trying to update to iOS5.0, I get the message stating that my content will be erased, even though this is the computer I now synch my phone with. Is there a way to make the update recognize the new computer so that my content will be kept?

The best option is to copy your entire iTunes folder from your old computer to your new one using one of the methods described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527. This will allow iTunes on your new computer to recognize and sync with your phone without deleting content. You will also need to copy over any other synced data not in your iTunes library such as photos synced to your phone, calendars and contacts.
If you can't do this, these articles will help you start syncing with your new computer with minimal or no data loss:

Yes, that appears how Mavericks works right now. However, you can open the Address Panel, select all your contacts, then click the To (or CC, or Bcc) buttons to move the selection to the address field.
If it is not already in the Toolbar, right-click on the Toolbar and select Customize Toolbar…
Then, drag the address panel up to wherever you want it.
You may also want to add it to the New Message window in the same way.

I have the same question. This is also made more difficult as apple has taken away the handy full screen icon on the upper right hand corner.

Not something I've ever done, but I found a 9-year-old article from MacWorld -> http://www.macworld.com/article/1041790/tapetocd.html - that explains it a bit. Apparently the only software that you need is GarageBand and a hardware interface. Just Google "copy audio cassette to mac" and you'll get tons of hits.
Good luck,

To select consecutive images click and drag the cursor over multiple thumbnails to select all at once.
To select multiple images that are randomly located hold down the Command(⌘) key and click on those images you want to select.
Or to select consecutive images from a list of images that are together hold down the Shift key and and click on the first photo you want to select and the on the last photo you want in the list.

After playing the song I selected in iTunes 11 it jumps to the another album rather than playing the next song on the original album I selected. ***? How do I fix this?!?!?

After playing the song I selected in iTunes 11 it jumps to the another album rather than playing the next song on the original album I selected. ***? How do I fix this?!?!?

I found that clearing the "Up Next" list fixes the problem. But I have to clear that list everytime I just want to hear just that one album. Each time I select on song on the album, the "Up Next" list builds it's own list rather than just play through the album. I think this has something to do with the issue. How can I fix this?!?!

If ONLY the original Dev Beta is installed, will GM Candidate install over this without intervening betas?
