Q: Need a copy of osx mavericks
Hi,
i'm in a little bit of trouble.
i have had a problem with my macbook hard drive and been forced to buy a new one.
i need to install mavericks over yosemite because the dj software i use for work currently does not support it.
How can i get my hands on mavericks as it is no longer in the app store?
Regards
Gareth

If it was installed on the new computer, then you should be able to sign in to the app store and either hit your Purchases or Updates sections - it should show up.
Was it the original OS on that computer? If so, you can also try internet recovery: hold Command + Option + R keys during bootup; once connected to Apple's servers, you use Disk Utility to wipe your drive. When done, choose to reinstall OS X - if Mavericks was the original OS, it should reinstall exactly that.
