Installing and Setting Up
Mac OS X
It’s easy to install and set up Mac OS X on your computer.
This book describes how to upgrade Mac OS X or install it
for the first time. You’ll also find advice about using
Mac OS X, logging in to your computer, and starting up.
Installing Mac OS X
To install Mac OS X:
1 Insert the Mac OS X Install Disc 1 CD and double-click Install Mac OS X.
2 Follow the onscreen instructions.
3 In the Destination Volume pane, select the volume where you want to install Mac OS X.
Be sure to check how the Installer will install the software.
Click Options if you need to select how Mac OS X is installed. For more information, see
“Selecting Installation Options” on page 4.
4 In the Easy Install pane, click Install to begin installing the software.
This installs all the software you need to use Mac OS X, but does not install some
additional software. If you want to install additional software or you don’t want to
install all the software installed using Easy Install, click Custom Install and select the
items you want to install.
If you have a problem installing Mac OS X, see “Advice About Installing Mac OS X” on
page 8.
Note: If you need to restore your computer’s software, use the Software Restore disc
that came with your computer. For help, see the book that came with your computer.
