[QUOTE="rustyk123, post: 1486151, member: 99923"] Here is a tip about OS, Usually you are safe upgrade up 1 version of the OS after purchasing software. What usually happens is people are a few versions back on software and OS and they try to do an OS upgrade. Also, you should check compatibility before upgrading. I had the same issue with Lion, I upgraded while on vacation and found out a few minutes after that Parallels Desktop was not supported, I have to find a patch to make it work, I had no option to roll back because I was not at home. Also, tip for installing a new hard drive, the best method I have found to image the hard drive from one to another when installing a new one is using disc utility, if you go to the backup section, just choose the source and destination and go. It sometimes is faster, but it always makes a better copy and will get the recovery partition, also it comes free on every mac os x installer disc and recovery partition. [/QUOTE]
