Patrick Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Have a issue when trying to install I can boot from usb no problem I get to the installer and it wants to do a time machine backup. I can get to formating the drive etc rebooting but still get stuck at it wanting to do a time machine backup any ideas on what to do? Is have tried this many times with the same issue. Like I say it wants to restore from a backup and seems like everything is going great until that point. But I want to do a clean install I have never installed before so I am really not sure what is going on. Thank You -Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iMick Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 It isn't a retail disc. Only 10.6.0 and 10.6.3 are retail versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted December 3, 2012 Administrators Share Posted December 3, 2012 is it like a model specific disc that came with a computer? those do not work. they are geared twords that specific machine. retail version would be the one you buy at a store for install or upgrade.

Patrick Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 Ok that might make sense... Its a copy of a 10.6.7 and they claim it is from the store... I know its not a torrent burnt one but I am starting to think it might be one that they got with the machine or something else... This is starting to make more sense... I will have to check that out and go get a full retail one.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
