Hi,
Since i downloaded and tried to install 10.11.1 on my late 2011 MacBook Pro I have been unable to boot my laptop. I therefor wish to reinstall 10.11.0 via a USB drive as other options don't work. Does anybody know where i can find the installer as i can't find it in the App Store on my other laptop.
Kind regards,
Pim
MacBook Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11), trying to update to 10.11.1 i think
That's a very useful page; unfortunately 10.11. is not on there 😟
Earliest version available is 10.11.1, which when I try to install, tells me I need 10.11. first. Any ideas?
I'd be happy to install Sierra, but my machine is apparently not compatible with it. I have software that I can't use on my current OS, so trying to get to 10.11 or later.
You can try to download it at the link below. If it won't let you, then your only options are to upgrade to Sierra or find an older computer where you can download it using your Apple ID.
As of now, anything other than the basic download doesn't formally exist. There may be an unauthorised version on Amazon but I would advise against buying it, not least because the Apple version is free. Try again.
Unless you downloaded the initial release of El Capitan (10.11) and saved the Install OS X El Capitan.app file, you won't be able to download it from Apple. All that is available is the current version 10.11.1.
App store will only have the latest iteration of 10.11.x avaialbe form the App store
unless you have an archive with 10.11.0 in your possession there is not a way to get it from Apple.
in the mean time you can try to remedy the issues you are having by performing the following:
Reset the SMC

reset the NVRM

restart in Safe mode
OS X Yosemite: Start up in safe mode
and turn off file vault if it is on
OS X Yosemite: Turn off FileVault encryption
if the system does not boot try to restore using system recovery
There is no official way to download 10.11.0.
Anyway, I would advise against it.
I suggest you boot to the recovery partition and do a repair of your drive with disk utility.
Hi all,
Unfortunatly i have tried all the suggested options already however they do not work. It seems like the update bricked my macbook. I read that people with similar problems were able to solve them by reinstalling os x 10.11.0 which is why I am looking for that specific version.
There is no reason why 10.11.1 per se would render your computer inoperable. It just so happens that something went awry during the installation.
You need to do a clean install. I would start from the recovery partition, erase the volume, and then reinstall, either from the network or an installer created on a usb drive.
I suspect the issue might be caused by my MacBook Pro's GPU, I am unable to launch in recovery mode whatsoever and before i turned of my computer for the restore my screen was distorted. Also before the screen goes to infinite grey mode it get's distorted for about a second.
I will go to the Apple store tomorrow to see if that's the issue and keep you posted.
The actual answer for the Gold Star and the teacher's pet award goes to ME:
Try this link as it has every freaking download you are unable to find to every app Apple does such a great job of burying and if Apple wants to up their game a notch they should push this link more and bury it less.
Good luck to any who find this in their quest.
God Bless you all.
No. There is no 10.11.0 anywhere at Apple, seems like everything else tho
Is it in the App Store Purchases tab?
Where to download os x 10.11.0
