Unable to install Yosemite - The disk is used for Time Machine backups
I have a Macbook Pro laptop running on OS X Lion (10.7.5)
I had no issues downloading the Yosemite installer completely. I would click on "Install OS X Yosemite" from Applications and click agree.
This is where the problem begins. I am unable to choose my hard drive (HD) because the message says "The disk is used for Time Machine backups." Here's the thing. I don't use the hard drive for Time Machine use as I have an external hard drive for that. I would also try it with my Time Machine external hard drive connected, and it would show the same message ("The disk is used for Time Machine backups.") when I point it on either drives.
Please help.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.5)
