Install Yosemite on MBP, not El Capitan

Hello,

wheni buy MBP Retina 13 2015 I've installed Yosemite. Now when I reinstall OS using recovery mode, the MBP downloads from the Internet OS X El Captian, not Mavericks.


Why? Have I to removerecovery partition(how)?


Thank you.

Hi there, HubertNodzak!


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you are needing to install Mavericks on your computer. That is a great question! You can install Mavericks as long as you downloaded it with your Apple ID when it was available. You can find it in your App Store on the computer by going to the Purchases section. Once you have found it, check out this article for steps to Use the version of OS X that came with your Mac, or a compatible newer version.


Have a great day!
