Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I'm using an apple mac with lion 10.7.5 loaded. I need to load snow leopard to use a film editing program. Can I load snow leopard without removing Lion?
If so are there any problems doing it?
MacBook, Mac OS X (10.7.5)
You would need to divide your internal HDD into two partitions and install Snow on one and Lion on the other or install a bootable version of Snow on a FireWire or USB external drive. Then you would have to reboot from Snow to Lion as needed.

Thanks Dah*veed. How do I go about dividing my HDD into two partitions?
You need and external drive to make a clone of your current installation of OS X. Then you can use DIsk Utility (Apps/Utilities) to divide the internal drive into two partitions. Doing so will erase the drive, which is why you need the clone so you don't loose everything. Then copy the clone to one partition to restore everything and use a Snow DVD to install it on the 2nd partition.
Muchas Gracias, amigo.
De nada chavo.
