Apple Install El Capitan

Posted on 16-11-2021 by admin

I am uploading Mac OS El Capitan that I downloaded off of in 2021 in January. Im uploading this because of archive. Once you’ve done that, here’s how to install, reinstall, or upgrade to El Capitan, step by step: Boot from your Recovery HD partition by restarting your Mac while holding down the Command+R keys. The OS X Utilities window appears. Select Reinstall OS X, and click Continue. The OS X El Capitan splash screen appears. OS X El Capitan Installer. Official OS X El Capitan Installer from the Mac App Store. Un-archive the zip archive and you will get the app Installer. A bootable ISO or bootable USB can be made from this installer. Instructions on how to do that are on the Internet/Youtube.

I’m sorry to hear about the issue you are having with what I imagine you expected to be a straightforward install; that’s always frustrating. I’m sure we can help you out, but before we dive in it may be good to establish what we are working with:

1. Were you able to successfully copy your files to the external hard drive as you noted? Do you have any other full or incremental backups of your system from prior to the install, like in Time Machine?

2. What are you seeing when you try to reinstall from Recovery? Is it giving you an error, or is it just hanging/failing? If you are seeing an error, what does it say specifically?

3. Similarly, what are you seeing when you try to verify/repair the disk? Is it saying that the disk is fine, is it finding repairable errors, or is it failing because it cannot repair the disk?
