The machine picks up the new drive with nothing on it, goes straight to Apple gets the utilities, you can then download OSX. I put in a brand new drive ( with the machine connected on a wired connection to the internet ), pressed 'cmd-R' keys with the power button. I was previously on El Capitain when my disk drive failed. I too am trying to upgrade from 10.7.5 ( OSX Lion to Sierra ).
#Why can't i find a free antivirus for mac 10.7.5 os lion mac os#
I've since gone back to and repeated the 'Reinstall Mac OS X' process dozens of times without success.įailing is bad enough but having to wait several hours for the download to finish before it does is soul destroying. Because of these failures and in desperation I opened 'Disc Utility' and hit every button available, 'verify', 'disc repair' etc, in the hope it would fix things, alas, it didn't. I've repeated that process several times over the last few days and it's failed everytime. After following the instructions and waiting umpteen hours for the process to finish it ultimately ended in failure. I ignored the Time Machine option has I hadn't backed up my files (at least I don't think I did/have) and duly clicked on 'Reinstall Mac OS X'. From that I ended up on 'Mac OS X Utilities' and the four options that come with it. After 2-3 hours the process finished and failed and I was left with a grey screen. I'm not very techie so please bare with me chaps.įirst up I went to the App Store and hit the update button.
