[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1773596, member: 46727"] We have found that folks who have problems with an in place upgrade were also very likely to have existing problems before they upgraded. Many folks erroneously believe that installing a new version of macOS is going to cure whatever that was ailing their machine. Sometimes a new version of macOS does cure things that were not right, but the majority of times it does not and in fact can make matters worse. We do recommend that before upgrading you check to see if all your apps will be compatible and especially look for any notices from Apple about the upgrade. Personally, I have been doing in place upgrades on all my machines and have only run into one problem long ago. And that was when I upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard, I had to do a clean install because of kernel panics after the in place upgrade. I never did figure out what was causing it but the clean install of Snow Leopard worked. As the saying goes... your mileage may vary. ;D [/QUOTE]
