One small for emergencies and being able to run utilities if there are problems,Īnd one large partition for installiong a new os. I then used my 10.8.5 restore usb stick to to install a clean new 10.8.5 on two partitions on the internal disk. I opened the laptop to clean out all the dust, clean the fans and connectors. I mapped out the bad sectors and re-partitioned and formatted the drive using my usb stick with Drive Genius. I have the latest '09 iWork apps on a backup and on a clone of my old 10.8.5 disk.Īfter making the backup and clone of my old disk I reinitialized and ran low level tests because I had disk corruption. Most all people like the GM way of things except for a few penny=pinchers and young iPhone lovers who can't afford new technology every six months.Īnyway, I don't think this is desired on the forums since it isn't really a technical problem and, we shouldn't carry on plain conversation. GM soon surpassed Ford and Americans never went back. GM started selling different colored cars because Ford's cars were only one color - black. People want everything new, and they want it sooner rather than later. Jobs may have learned this from when GM competed with the Ford Model T. This drives higher sales while continuing the old Jobs strategy of frequently upgrading the OS. Apple is following a strategy of forced obsolescence. This same policy has also prevailed for iWork since they started distributing it via the App Store. Not sure there are any in this latter group. It does not apply to Snow Leopard because everyone running Snow Leopard can upgrade either to the last compatible version with the user's hardware or to Mojave if supported by the hardware. I believe this has prevailed since 10.7 or 10.8. As far as I am aware Apple does not allow any upgrade from 10.7 and later except to the current release version - Mojave 10.14.3. I"m afraid that the page in the App Store doesn't say anything about except El Capitan requires 10.6.8 or later.
