Hey everybody, I need some help !!!! I just got a used Macbook Pro 7.1 and I did not get from the previous owner the discs that come with the computer. Is there any way that I can do a back up o mirror image of the hard drive like it is now (he format it and its like when you turn it on for the first time) Just in case I'll have to re load OS X down the road. Can I do that to a CD ?? and how??
Many thanks in advance guys !!!!
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.0.x)
I did not get from the previous owner the discs that come with the computer.
Not having the original discs drastically lowers the value of the computer. These original master discs cannot be made from your computer you can try to buy them on eBay or telephoning Apple.
Recommend that you backup the entire computer using "Carbon Copy Cloner" as this might be your only way to recover things should your hard drive fail.
Duplicate installation disks can be obtained from Apple Customer Service. You will have to give them the serial number of the MBP, on the bottom, and there is a fee.
Ciao.

Assuming your query is addressing installation disks, what is the source? It has to be an installation disk which you do not have.
