MacMini caught in an OS update fail loop
I Decided to finally upgrade my OS to the Yosemite 10.8 only to be informed after downloading the free upgrade and starting the install that os x cannot be installed on my machine.....so ok fine..next step says to quit the installer to restart my machine and try again...which just brings me back to the upgrade failled window...sigh
so this time instead of goin through the loop again i go to the start up disk option...which seems to be the only other option at this point, it asks me to select the system i want to use to start up the machine and i only have one choice listed...click restart and i get "you cant change the startup disk to the selected disk"
please help im panicking and i need my machine back urgently.
any advice would be appreciated....except anything that would loose my files.
Thanks,
Stacey
