[QUOTE="ring3, post: 1639065, member: 342799"] I am trying to follow advise given starting with making a bootable operating system thumb drive. To accomplish this I have a Cruzer Glide 16GB thumb drive. I downloaded "DiscMaker X4B4" and followed the directions. Problem is the program cannot find my OS installer. It directs me to my application purchases which contains OS Mavericks with a "download button" but nothing for Mountain Lion. As you can see in my signature my system says its running 10.8.5. Shortly (days) after I bought this machine Mavericks apeared for download/upgrade, I have ignored it until now. Obviously I am somewhere below a novice. Just trying to start from what I believe to be the start. I do plan on moving forward with back-ups and OS upgrades. Any suggestions to get me moving forward? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
