Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
When attempting to install Mac OS X Lion on my iMac, it shows a really huge negative number and glitches out to 0 seconds and then back to the huge negative number. And then when waiting for about a minute, it says "Can't download the additional components needed to install Mac OS X." I've tried setting the date back to 2018 and it did not work. I am also on WiFi.
Sorry I may have messed you up,did you replace <path to> with the actual path, like..
hdiutil attach /Volumes/USB1/InstallMacOSX.dmg
or...
hdiutil attach /Volumes/YUH1/InstallMacOSX.dmg
Alright, I believe it's done. What do I do after?
I wouldn't think so, do they still not mount?
Highlight the DMG in Disk Utility, can you mount it... or chose Restore to YUH1 ?
1. It is already mounted
2. I can, indeed, restore it to YUH1.
Ok restart & hold Option key, see if the Installer is a boot choice... 🤞
Unfortunately, the only thing that shows upon reboot and holding down Option key is Internet Recovery and to connect to WiFi, still no bootable USB to show up.
I'm mulling, but hopefully we get more help in here.
Oh, when booting into restore Mode what exactly shows on the drives?
What do you mean? Anything specific or just the information at the bottom of Disk Utility?
If it shows any files on either. or any info you can provide.
Possible, but I don't consider it all that likely, since it Mounted.
Long shot... see if can you mount it again & try this in Terminal...
Open /Volumes/YUH1/InstallMacOSX.app
I tried the command line and it says, "Open: command not found". Though, I got the InstallMacOSX.dmg to mount again.
Yeah, I don't know. The 'open' command just doesn't work. I have no idea if it hasn't been a command during MacOS X Lion, or it's just broken.
Cannot Install Mac OS X Lion
