Installing Mac OS X v10.7.1

I'm in the process of upgrading to Lion and will be running Avid Media Composer on it.  The version of Avid supports OS X 10.7.1, but the App Store only let me download 10.7.4.  Can I install 10.7.4 and then revert back with the 10.7.1 update that's available on the support site?

Welcome to Apple Communities
You can't do this. You can only install the latest version, but Avid should work with 10.7.4

    It's to do with licensing. If you read the EULA that comes with OSX it tells you about those restrictions.

  • Installed Mac OS X v10.6.4 Update (Combo). Can't Open Mail 4.2

    I installed Mac OS X v10.6.4 Update (Combo) and when I rebooted I can no longer open Mail 4.2. I get a message saying the this version is not compatible with the OS. Any thoughts?
    Thanks for your help.
    Kyle

    I didn't use the combo update, but when I went to 10.6.4 it automatically upgraded my Mail to version 4.3.
    Why not try doing an upgrade of Mail?

  • How do i install mac os x v10.6 so I can update itunes for my iphone 5

    So I have an older white macbook.  I am using mac os x v10.5.8.  I need to update my os version to 10.6 so I can install the newer version of itunes in order to plug my iphone 5 into itunes.  I can't seem to find the 10.6 download.  Please help.

    To sync an iPhone 5 you need iTunes 10.7 or later.
    To use iTunes 10.7 or later on a Mac, you must be running OS X 10.6.8 or later.
    To upgrade from OS X 10.5.8, you must first buy Snow Leopard on DVD.
    Snow Leopard is not available to download from any legitimate source.
    Online (US): http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Online (UK): http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Elsewhere: call the phone number in the Apple Online Store
    Apple's price is $19.99 or £14.00.
    Make sure your system meets Snow Leopard's requirements:
    Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" System Requirements
    To install Snow Leopard for the first time, you must have a Mac with:
    An Intel processor
    An internal or external DVD drive, or DVD or CD Sharing
    At least 1 GB of memory (RAM) (additional RAM is recommended)
    A built-in display or a display connected to an Apple-supplied video card supported by your computer
    At least 5 GB of disk space available, or 7 GB of disk space if you install the developer tools
    After you install Snow Leopard you can decide if you want to upgrade OS X to the latest version, Mountain Lion. Mountain Lion is available in the Mac App Store, which is available to you after upgrading to Snow Leopard.

  • Installing Mac OS X v10.7 not possible.

    Hello.
    First off, I've a MacBook Pro 15", Intel Core Duo 2, 4GB Ram using the latest version of Snow Leopard.
    So, I downloaded Mac OS X v10.7 from the App Store and run the .dmg file. Everything worked fine and my MacBook restarted and showed the Mac OS X Installer.
    I chose the "HD" Volume.
    It started installing.
    It was written something like "36 Minutes remain".
    After ten minutes: "35 Minutes remain"
    And then something appeared that said it's not possible to install Mac OS X Lion because the volume was broken and could not have been repaired.
    So I clicked the Restart button. Once again I tried to install it: Same story…
    What should I do now?
    Is there a way to restart my MacBook without booting on Mac OS X Lion?

    I'm sorry to say that it failed :-(  (and I must admit that I would have been surprised if it had worked)
    The verify disk permissions run on the Mac found numerous minor errors, but never stopped reporting on some of them. Tried to run it multiple times. Chkdsk /f never reported anything bad at all. That also run multiple times.
    After restart (and install to begin):
    From the process window
    33 minutes left
    32 minutes left
    30 minutes left (and "crash"...)
    In the end: It all stops on "Cannot create Recovery partition"
    Jul 21 16:22:59 localhost OSInstaller[344]: Recovery system creation failed with error -69728 (This partition map modification would make a Windows partition unbootable)
    Jul 21 16:22:59 localhost OSInstaller[344]: Install failed: Mac OS X kan ikke installeres på disken Macintosh HD, fordi det ikke kan opprettes et gjenopprettingssystem. Finn ut mer på www.apple.com/no/support/no-recovery.
    Jul 21 16:23:00 localhost OSInstaller[344]: Reverted bless to disk Macintosh HD
    And a warning to you all: If you have Magic Mouse, you will not manage to press the "Restart button" or save the install log. Luckily I found myself a direct USB connected mouse.
    teruhiko: No references to boot.ini at all in the install.log, so I doubt we have the same problem. But thanks for your attempt!
    Best regards,

    The answer is simple: It is illegal. There is no discussion beyond that.

  • Installed Mac OS X v10.7 Lion yesterday, computer is running very slowly as is my WiFi.  Any suggestions?

    Since installing Mac OS Lion, my iMac is running slowly as is my WiFi, any suggestions?

    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Lion Recovery HD. When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Restart.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    To boot from the Recovery HD restart the computer. After the chime hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button. Or restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys.

  • Installing Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard on an eMac problems

    I'm trying to install Mac OS X 10.5 on an eMac. When I first bought the Mac Box Set, it said the Leopard disc was damaged so I called up Apple and got a replacement. Now when I try to install it says:
    "The Installer could not validate the contents of the 'BaseSystem' package."
    BTW, I'm installing on a 500 GB Western Digital External FireWire HD, as my internal hard drive died. How can I get the installation to work?

    After much investigating and asking around, turned out my eMac's SuperDrive was not recent enough to read dual-layer discs. It's just that simple.
    FWIW, essentially every DVD drive including those in every Mac can read dual layer disks. Almost all commercial DVD movie releases are DL, so a drive that could not read them would be nearly useless. Your eMac's DVD drive cannot write ("burn") DL disks, which is an entirely different capability.

  • How do i install mac os X v10.6 onto a disk partition?

    I would like to install snow leopard onto a 160 gb partion that iv'e carved out of the 1T hard drive. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Did that iMac in your signature originally come with 10.6.7 install disks or 10.7?
    Because if it was upgraded to 10.7, then the firmware will allow booting from the 10.6.7 machine specific disks, and if you don't have them you can call Apple for replacements.
    If the machine originally came with 10.7, then it's a bit harder, you need another Mac capable of boot from the 10.6.7 disk to Firewire Target Disk mode it onto the 160GB partition.
    If you can't get the 10.6.7 disks, there is a way to take the 10.6.3 disk + combo update and make a disk, also there is a way to take a 10.6.7 machine specific disk from any other Mac, alter it and then use image that to Firewire Target Disk mode onto the iMac 160GB drive.
    There is also a way to run 10.6 in a virtual machine program in 10.7 and later, but the performance isn't as good for games etc.,

  • IMac crashes after installing MAC OS X v10.6.5 update

    After installing the latest Snow Leopard update, my iMac worked fine. Restarts again and everything seems to be fine. But then after using for a certain period of time like 10 minutes or so, it shuts off without any notice. Then i rebooted again, it seemed fine but then the same thing occurred again. Now this problem has repeated for 5 times. Not sure what's the problem. Any suggestions on what i should do?

    Have you tried starting up with your install disk and doing a disk repair?
    Put the install disk that came with the Mac in the DVD/CD drive and restart holding down the 'C' key. You can take your finger off once you hear it making noises from the DVD/CD drive. You'll be presented with a screen where you choose your language. At the next screen on the menu bar select Utilities>Disk Utility you then select your Macintosh HD on the left and click on 'repair disk'. If it makes any changes click on 'repair disk' again and repeat the process until you get a clean pass. Once done select restart from the Apple menu and hopefully the Mac will boot normally.

  • Mac OS X v10.4 installed on one drive & Mac OS X v10.5 installed on another

    In my Power Mac G4 (MDD) I now have 4 drives installed: 2 x 250GB & 2 x 80GB with Mac OS X v10.4 installed on one of the 250GB drives. I would now like to install Mac OS X v10.5 on the second 250GB drive.
    Is this possible? I think so, but I am not sure and can find no relevant reference.
    The reason, of course, is to be able to continue to run some of my old Mac OS 9 software using "Classic" inside Mac OS X v10.4; this is NOT possible with Mac OS X v10.5 or later. And, of course, lots of new software requires Mac OS X v10.5, so I would like to maintain BOTH operating systems.
    My Power Mac (MDD) has a single 1.25 GHz G4 processor 2GB of RAM, and obviously lots of free disc space.
    Any suggestions or recommendations?
    Thanks
    <Email Edited by Host>

    I have the same G4 MDD with 4 HDs installed. I have Leopard, Tiger & OS 9.2.2 installed. I can boot into Leopard, Tiger & OS 9, and run classic apps while booted in Tiger. No temp problems. What you want to do is OK.
