Os X Install Disk Download
Whenever Apple releases a new version of macOS, I like to create a bootable USB installation drive. I test different Macs, and when I need to upgrade those machines, it’s a lot more efficient to plug in the USB installer drive and run the installer, than to log into the App Store, download the 6GB OS installer, and then run it.
How to install Mac OS X TIGER. Since, we have been through the technical properties, here is an easy way to install it on your system: Download the OS X 10.4 ISO/DMG files. Convert the DMG files to ISO files. Now burn the ISO files in bootable DVD. Now you have the boot disk. Now go to the boot menu and install the Mac OS X TIGER ISO on your PC. DiskMaker X (formerly Lion DiskMaker) is an application built with AppleScript that you can use with many versions of OS X/macOS to build a bootable drive from OS X/macOS installer program (the one you download from the App Store).
Because it’s so easy to create an external installation drive, it’s my preferred means of installing the OS. I keep it around for those time when I would rather use the drive than rely on booting in Recovery mode.
In this article I’ll go over the different ways you can create a bootable macOS Mojave installation drive. But before I give instructions on how to create the drive, I’ll go over the items you’ll need and how to get them.
Macworld also has bootable-install-drive instructions for:
Get an external drive and maybe an adapter
The macOS Mojave installer software is just over 6GB, so you need a USB external drive that can hold that much data. The drive can be a thumb drive, hard drive, or SSD.
If you want to use a thumb drive, an 8GB drive works perfectly. I used an 8GB Kingston Data Traveler G4 ($11 on Amazon); it’s cheap and it supports USB 3.1, so it’s fast. I’ve also used a VisionTek 120GB USB 3.0 Pocket Solid State Drive (Amazon link) and older USB thumb drives that support USB 2, which is slower, but works.
If you have a 2015 or newer MacBook or a 2016 or newer MacBook Pro, you may need Apple’s $19 USB to USB-C adapter. This will allow you to connect a storage device that uses a USB type-A connector. If you don’t have an external drive and you have a USB-C Mac laptop, you could buy the SanDisk Ultra USB Type-C Flash Drive, which has a USB-C connector. You can get a SDCZ450-016G-G46.
When creating the boot drive, the storage device is reformatted, so there’s no need to format the drive beforehand.
Get the macOS Mojave installer software
The macOS Mojave installer is available in the App Store. If you launch the App Store app, do a search for 'Mojave.' Or, if you click this Mojave App Store link, it will take you to the Mojave App Store webpage, then click on the 'View in the Mac App Store' button.
You can read the information to learn more about Mojave. When you’re ready to download the software, click the Download button under the icon on the upper left. (If you’ve already downloaded the installer, the button will say Open instead of Download.)
Once the download is complete, the installer will launch automatically. But don’t continue with the installation. Instead, press Command-Q on your keyboard to quit the installer.
The Mojave installer app will be in your Applications folder, so you can go there and launch it later to upgrade your Mac to the new operating system.
Make a bootable installer drive: The quick way
I used a free app called Install Disk Creator to make the installation drive. There’s another app called Diskmaker X, but the instructions below are for Install Disk Creator.
Download Install Disk Creator by clicking on the link above. When the download is done, you can move it over to your Applications folder. Then follow these steps to create your bootable macOS Mojave drive.
1. Connect your drive to your Mac.
2. Launch Install Disk Creator.
3. In the main window, you’ll see a pop-up menu under Select the volume to become the installer. Click on the menu and select your drive.
The error occurs when the object (Scanner, Cam etc) you are trying to connect to is not WIA compatible. Very little USB Cam’s etc are not WIA/Twain compatible, most of the non-compatible types are Non Branded versions and so fore.You could suggest to the user to download updated drivers for the USB Device, and check is there a WIA/Twain version available.Or you could simple offer them a new USB Cam (at a discount price of course) of which will work correctly with your software ( a WIA/Twain).Check outThis is a great example on how to use WIA in VB.net. This error will occur if the following conditions are met:1: No WIA Devices connect (You have no USB scanners etc connected)2: 1 or more of the connected Devices are not WIA Compatible (If you have a scanner, camera connected and anyone of them is not WIA compatible then the error occurs3: The windows operating system is NOT higher than Win XP SP1 (Windows 2000 inc SP4, Win 98 and so fore)Even if your USB device states it is WIA/Twain compatible. 260ci wia driver usb code 10 fix. Allot of them are not why they state it is still beyond me.So how to fix it using VB:Even using C+ will still cause the same error, unless as shown above you use a different DLL and write all the handles etc for itYou can’t fix it as there is nothing to fix, the device is simply not compatible, but that’s not the end all of all’s, you can insist that users use devices that are both WIA and Twain compatible. HiThe problem you are having is with your hardware not with the WIA dll.
4. Under the pop-up menu, you’ll see Select the OS X installer. (macOS used to be called OS X.) If you have only the Mojave installer on your Mac, Install Disk Creator will automatically select it. If you have other macOS installers, you need to click on Select the OS X installer and select the Mojave installer.
5. When you’re ready, click Create installer. Your Mac may tell you that Install Disk Creator wants to make changes, and you need to enter your user name and password. After you do this, the app will take a few minutes to create the boot drive. A progress bar. appears at the bottom of the Install Disk Create window.
If you try to start the process and you get a failure message saying that the drive couldn't be unmounted, try reformatting the drive first as ExFAT using Disk Utility. Then start the process over again.
