OS X Yosemite as a new install?

I have to do a fresh install on a new hard drive for my laptop, and was hoping to use Mavericks as a new install.  I know it's reported as an upgrade, but has anyone used a new OS X as a new install for a new system?

Thanks Niel.  as a side note, I am planning on 2 partitions, OS X on about a 65-70% partition, and Ubuntu on the remainder...
Thanks again!

  • I have a licensing Problem reinstaling Acrobat 9 now under new installed OSX Yosemite.

    Troubleshooting incl. deleting directories etc. doesn't help. Any idea?
    The repair tool doesn't seem to work (Adobe - Adobe Licensing Repair Tool), the launcher comes up with the error message, it's not longer supporting Power PC
    I have a late 2011 MB Pro with a new Install of OX Yosemite

    Here is the compatibility statement for Acrobat Pro on a MAC:
    Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro (English, French, German) on Mac OS
    PowerPC G4, G5, or Intel processors
    Mac OS X v. 10.4.11 or 10.5
    256 MB of RAM (512 MB recommended)
    1.42 GB of available hard-disk space
    1,024 x 768 screen resolution
    DVD drive
    I am not sure how to interpret the OS for a MAC, but it is what is stated. I don't think that Adobe certifies AA 9 for Yosemite, but that does not mean it will not work.

  • I downloaded yosemite as the new operating system but I can't find iphotos since then

    I restored my mac to factory settings and downloaded yosemite as the new operating system but I can't find iphotos since then. When I go into Icloud it takes me to apple page. PLease help!
    <Re-Titled By Host>

    1 - you need to update your profile as you state that you have OS X 10.6.3 in it
    2 - for Yosemite you need to backup your iPhoto library and install iPhoto 9.6 from the App store - if you are upgrading from iPhoto '08 or earlier you need to also run the iPhoto Library upgrader prior to launching iPhoto 9.6
    3 - Your photos are NOT in iCloud - it is not a place to store photos - it is only to move photos between devices (MyPhotoStream) or people (shared PhotoStreams) - they are (by default) in the iphoto library in your pictures folder - if you did not backup your iphoto library prior to erasing you disk then they are gone

  • New install, old time machine backup?

    I have a 2009 Mac Pro, original HD still inside, Mavericks installed. I just installed Yosemite on a new internal drive. The Mavs time machine backup is on a 3rd internal drive.
    My question: how can I get the new Yosemite installation to utilize my estalbished Time Machine backup, and carry forward?
    thank you!
    ray

    There is a way to force the backup history to be inherited, but I consider it too complicated for most users to carry out, and it won't do any good if you've already started using Time Machine with the new setup. If you're familiar with the shell and want to try it, search the tmutil(8) manual page for the terms "inheritbackup" and "associatedisk."
    Otherwise I suggest you set the backup drive aside and stop using it until you're sure you'll no longer need the data. Then erase it and start over. Meanwhile, start a new backup on another drive. You need more than one backup to be safe anyway.

    First: It's pointless to first install a full system and then try to overwrite the database with another one.
    I would INSTALL the system using the database copy.
    This procedure is call "homogeneous system copy" and there's a guide for that available at http://service.sap.com/instguides and also in "Note 151603 - Copying an SQL Server database".
    The error message is coming because the database has not the proper users, you'd need to run the STM tool to adapt the users and the environment. Those steps are all described in detail in the guide.

  • How to log in to the new installed SAP ABAP instance ?

    Dear Experts,

    Could you please tell me,  how to log in to the new installed SAP ABAP instance and do the post installation?
    Regards,
    Madhavan K

    Hi,
    Check the list of post installation steps:
    http://www.saptechies.com/post-installation-steps-for-ecc-60/
    From my point of view basic post installation steps are:
    - Installing SAP License (from http://service.sap.com/licensekeys)
    - Setup TMS  (STMS)
    - Import profiles (RZ10)
    - Client Copy (SCC*)
    - Create users (SU01)
    However further many steps are required as per your requirements. Cehck the link for more detailed steps.

  • Every time I close FF it reverts to new install settings and doesn't retain any settings, I have uninstalled & reinstalled but no change - help

    I installed FF and used it without issue, but on loading it for me next session and every subsequent session it reverts to the state it was as a new install including not retaining any settings for loaded extensions. This is a total pain and is likely to lead me to uninstalling if I cannot find a fix soon. I have uninstalled and re-installed and tried re-set but neither has made any difference.

    You can check for problems with preferences and try to rename or delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js files and a possible user.js file to reset all prefs to the default values.

  • Team Foundation Server 2013 update 4 New Install - Error 503 Service Unavailable for Sharepoint Central Admin

    Hello,
    I ran a new install of Team Foundation Server and let it install the built in SharePoint pieces on a single server setup. After the install i'm able to access the
    http://teamfoundation:8080/tfs/ address without issue but am unable to create a project. When I attempt to create a project I get the following error:
    TF30172: You do not have permission to create a new team project (when checking security i'm a member of the project collection administrators and Team Foundation Administrators)
    This led me to look at the sharepoint central administration site where I receive the following error:
    Error 503 Service Unavailable
    I've gone through and validated the identity is set correctly in IIS for the following services:
    SharePoint Central Admin v4
    SharePoint15AppPool
    The SharePoint Web Services Root is set as LocalService instead of the domain user.
    The identity domain user is setup as local administrator on the Team Foundation Server. They are all set to use .net v4.0.30319 with integrated Pipeline mode.
    Any help would be great!
    Thanks!

    Hi Eric,      
    Thanks for your post.
    Please share your detailed team project creation log here.
    In your TFS Admin Console>>Extensions for SharePoint Products tab, ensure SharePoint Web Application shows correctly in the right panel. And go to TFS Admin Console>>Application Tier>>SharePoint Web Applications tab, ensure your SharePoint
    web application displays in the right panel, then select your SharePoint web application and click Repair Connection, ensure can repair successfully.
    In your IIS Manager, select your SharePoint Central Administration V4 site and click Browser:17012(http) in the right panel, check if your SharePoint Central site can be opened successfully or not. If your SharePoint Central site cannot be accessed, I think
    this issue relate to your SharePoint site, you should contact SharePoint experts to resolve this issue first. After you resolved this issue and your SharePoint Central Admin site can be accessed correctly, then try to create your team project(within SharePoint
    site) again, if there still has issue when creating team project, please share the detailed error message here, we will try to resolve it.

  • New install not accessing existing library on D: drive.

    My iTunes library is much larger than my entire SSD I use as a boot volume, so of course I keep it on a second internal hard drive labeled D:.
    I just had my system corrupted and all backcup images not read by restore discs, so I had to wipe my C: SSD and re-install my Windows 7, 64-bit OEM from scratch.  Now, with a new install of iTunes, I can't seem to get it to recognize my existing library on my D: drive.  I've pointed it there in preferences both to the iTunes folder and the iTunes Library folder inside it on the drive.  I can open any individual item with iTunes separately and add that to my library separately, but no matter what, this thing just seems to ignore my existing content completely.  Nothing shows in my library within the program but the few nonsense songs that came with some software somewhere.
    I at first thought it was finding my TV shows, but it turns out that was only on the cloud.  I don't want to depend on some cloud server for my content I've bought and paid for when I have it stored in redundant hard drives of my own.  I need this to access my content on the drive I've selected for it, including my existing content already there.

    OK, I got the menu  bar open and found an article in "help" that said to drag the existing library folder into the iTunes window and that got my stuff into the software, but how can I be sure that new purchases go into the proper folder on my D: drive rather than into some C; drive location.  I have a terrabyte D: drive that is already red in Windows Explorer and still has more space left than this SSD I'm using as a C: drive had blank.

  • V6.01, Windows 7, click on icon, "firefox is already running but not responding" Task manager doesn't know about it. I can't quit it or get it to load. Brand new install. What to do?

    Brand new Lenovo computer, Windows 7 Home. New install of Firefox 6.0.1, set as default browser, don't launch when I click done. Icon appears in tray. I click the icon, and a message says "firefox is running but not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing process, or reboot". It's not obviously running. I can't find a way to make it quit. Task manager doesn't list it as a current application. Uninstall using the control panel uninstall function and then reinstalling gives the same message. Rebooting doesn't fix the problem and gives the same message. Firefox had been working until I tried to update my bookmarks.

    No can do. I can delete the current profile and install Firefox, which should create a new blank profile. The message still says "Firefox is already running." I can place my old profile in the proper folder, and Firefox will still be already running. I can't actually use Firefox, because even though the message says it is running, there is nothing on the screen I can access.
    After uninstalling Firefox, deleting the two items left in the Programs folder, and deleting the profile again, it still didn't work. I then got frisky and from the Roaming folder I deleted the Mozilla folder which contains the Firefox folder which contains the now empty Profiles folder. That worked, and a new set of folders with a new blank profile were created. So apparently it was the empty folders that never got deleted that were causing the issue.
    Thanks for your suggestion. It got me thinking.

    In addition to checklists provided by Josh; I would suggest you to perform a repository scan of the system to identify whether any objects were not installed properly and there might be a possible corruption. Use the link mentioned below to perform repository scanning.
    How to use Repository Diagnostic Tool - Business Intelligence (BusinessObjects) - SCN Wiki
    You can try to repair the install. Also as this is a new install you can directly go for re-installing the software.
    PS: Try to re-download the software from the service market place rather than copying the installer from existing one.

  • Oracle Upgrade vs New Install

    I have a client who wants to 'merge' 2 separate instances into a single instance in 11.5.10. The 2 separate instances are at different application and database levels, but do have commonalities, such as the COA structure. Part of the single instance project requires that the current CoA structure be changed from the current model. My impression and experience has told me this is a new install with a data migration from the 2 instances. Would that be the consensus of this group as well? Would there be any benefit to upgrading the 'newer' instance, creating a new SOB with the new structure, and then migrating data from the 'older' instance into the 'newer'/upgraded instance, which then serves as the single instance. Part of the migrations however, would BOTH require data conversion and mapping from the old COA to the new COA...

  • IPhoto won't open after new install and restore of back-up

    Hi guys
    My hard drive just died (for the second time in 6 months!) so I have just gotten the computer back with a new drive. I did a new install of Tiger from my original install CDs, did the download thing to get all the updates, and ran a "restore" from my external drive using iBackup (http://www.grapefruit.ch/iBackup//index.html) to restore all my previous system settings, documents, etc. So far this seems to have worked well, a couple of 3rd party applications didn't re-install - specifically Neo Office and WiFind - but I was able to manually install those and everything seems to be working fine.
    Except iPhoto. It won't open. When I click the dock icon it bounces once and does nothing. No little arrow under it or anything. Nothing at all happens when I click the icon in Finder (in the Applications folder). When I searched it in spotlight it told me there was a file called iphoto.crash.log, so I went and had a look at that hoping it would tell me the problem, but I don't understand it. I'm not particularly good at the behind the scenes stuff with computers.
    Wondering what I should do now - if someone can perhaps interpret the log file and find the issue if that would help, or if I should uninstall and re-install iPhoto by itself (and if so, how?), or if there is something else that may be causing the issue. I noticed there are a few files relating to it when I search with spotlight but I don't know which of them might be relevant. I could post a screenshot if that is allowed, or post the log file if it would help?
    Thanks in advance for any advice or help!
    Regards,
    Chloë

    400 Updates???
    Did you Repair Permissions before & after each one?
    The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, or things don't load/run, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
    Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
    If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!
    If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates again, or even do an A&I if you have enough free disk space.

    The combo update for Intel-based Macs...
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx10411comboupdateintel.html
    Repair Permissions before & after re-install, then reboot again each time.
    If all the above do not resolve the problem, then it's time for an Archive & Install, which gives you a new OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space...

    I only use Software Update to see what is needed, then get them for real via...
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/
    That way I can wait a week or so, check the forums for potential problems, and get Permissions & such in order before installing.

    Slow performance after installing Yosemite on an older Mac is often caused by inadequate memory. Although you can install the upgrade on a Mac with 2 GB of memory, experience has shown that at least 4 GB is needed for full performance.
    Select About This Mac from the Apple menu. If you have less than 4 GB of memory, and your model has upgradable memory, install as much as it can take, or at least that much. Any reputable RAM vendor will have a web form in which you can select the Mac model and be directed to compatible parts.
    Memory in the MacBook Air is not upgradable. If that's what you have, you should restore the previous system from a backup, or replace the machine. Ask if you need guidance.
    The Etrecheck report clearly shows that SylvieRose has a Macbook Pro, not a Macbook Air and that there are only 2 GB  RAM installed.  The Etrecheck report can be very informative if one takes the time to examine it. 
    Ciao.

  • How do I sync my old library with a new install of iTunes on a seperate drive?

    I just recently installed an SSD on my PC and I want to run iTunes off of the SSD. My library currently resides on my old HDD witch also has the most current version of iTunes on as well. How can I sync the library that resides on my old HDD to the new install of iTunes on my SSD?

    can't if you do not have access to the old library (the usual workaround is to backup the old library and import it to the new itunes)
    for important data...
    sync your existing contacts with icloud, your text messages will not be disrupted, music will sync with whatever music you have on your new itunes, photos shoud still be in the camera roll (I would sync them to photostream before you sync, just in case).   Any photos on your phone that are not in camera roll or photostream... if you lost those pictures with the computer crash I would take screen shots (lock button + home button at the same time) of each photo so they show up in the camera roll.  App data may or may not be lost.  In my experience, it depends on the app.  Some of the apps recognize your apple ID and sync data over the internet with servers, some do not.  I would take note of important data (such as passwords in a password keeper if you have such an app) just in case if you lose that data.
