No problems asking. I don't recall whether pre-installed Lion on machines came with DVD installers or not. Did your machine come with some disks? If not, I think there are recipes for downloading the installer using the recovery process. CB On 4/28/13 8:38 PM, Des Delgadillo wrote: Thanks, C

Thanks, Chris: I can grab that other external pretty easily. Would there be a way to come by a Lion installer? My Macbook came with Lion pre-installed so I wouldn't know where to get a hold of the installer. Is that a kosher question? Best, --Des -- You received this message because you are su

Dunno if it's worth the effort. You can get an external firewire 500GB drive for about $80 these days so if you're dropping the cash on Protools you might want to just set up lion on another drive when the time comes or flip flop internal and external at that point in time (backup internal to e

Hi, all: This might be a very basic question, but I've never done this before. I want to install Mountain Lion on another partition of my internal hard drive. I'll try my best to detail my situation. What I want to do is install Mountain Lion, but have lion around in case I ever decide to get Pr

If I upgrade from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion, without doing a reformat of my whole hard drive, will it wipe all my data, and I have to migrate it all back from a backup, or will all my stuff still be there? I'm still mired in old-school thinking I'm afraid. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AI
