Dear Friends,
I lost my Mac OSX Installer DVD disks. I have 13" Mac Book computer with intel chip inside. I already searched the forum but I couldn't find a similar thread. My OS is 10.5.1 Tiger dated 2008. So, here are my questions:
1 - How can I exactly figure out my OS (10.5 or 10.5.1 etc . . .)?
2 - Can I reformat my Mac Book without installer DVD disks?
3 - With the PCs (Particularly with window$ OS) you can create restore disk and then you can use that disk to reformat your PC. Can I create those installer DVD disks by using disk utility or any other application(s)?
I will be grateful if you could help me, please. I eventually will buy those installer disks, but I need to reformat my Mac Book these days.
Another thing I would like to ask is why we can not buy such OS disks from Apple Stores, instead order online? I find it a bit inconvenient.
Again, thanks for your valuable helps in advance, and wish all of you happy new year.
