Installing Mac Os On Macbook Pro



Macbook

Note

I just bought a used Macbook Pro 17 inch form early 2009. There is Windows 8 installed, but I would like to install the OSX again. If I start with command + r the book is still starting in Windows8. I have a iMac from 2007 with Maverick running, and a old Macbook with 10.7. What is the best way to recover a version of OS X. The manufacture-approved route is to download the firmware and put the drive into a Mac that has an optical drive, download the firmware on a PC, which they have a USB installer support for,. My MacBook Pro was running OS X 10.8.6 on the internal drive. I created a VMware Fusion Virtual Machine and upgraded the virtual OS X 10.8.6 install to macOS 10.13.x. I then on the virtual machine downloaded the full macOS 10.13.4 installer from the App Store and created the USB Installer from it. Installing Anaconda on Mac OS X Anaconda is a package manager, an environment manager, and Python distribution that contains a collection of many open source packages. An installation of Anaconda comes with many packages such as numpy, scikit-learn, scipy, and pandas preinstalled and is also the recommended way to install Jupyter Notebooks.

Use this method if you prefer to use a terminal window.

Installing Macos On Macbook Pro

  1. In your browser, download the command-line version of themacOS installer for your system.

  2. RECOMMENDED: Verify data integrity with SHA-256.For more information on hash verification, see cryptographic hash validation.

    • Open a terminal and run the following:

    Note

    Replace /path/filename with your installation’s path and filename.

  3. Install for Python 3.7 or 2.7:

    • For Python 3.7 enter the following:

    • For Python 2.7, open the Terminal.app or iTerm2 terminal application and then enter the following:

    Note

    Include the bash command regardless of whether or not you are using the Bash shell.

    Note

    Replace ~/Downloads with your actual path and Anaconda3-2020.02-MacOSX-x86_64.sh with actual name of the file you downloaded.

  4. The installer prompts “In order to continue the installation process, please review the license agreement.”Click Enter to view the license terms.

  5. Scroll to the bottom of the license terms and enter yes to agree to them.

  6. The installer prompts you to Press Enter to confirm the location, Press CTRL-C to cancel the installationor specify an alternate installation directory. If you confirm the default location,it will display PREFIX=/home/<user>/anaconda<2or3> and continue the installation.

    Note

    Unlike the graphical install, installing the shell file will place it in ~/anaconda<2 or 3> by default,not ~/opt. This is due to limitations with installing .pkg files on macOS Catalina.

    Installation may take a few minutes to complete.

    Note

    We recommend you accept the default install location. Do not choose the path as /usr for theAnaconda/Miniconda installation.

  7. The installer prompts “Do you wish the installer to initialize Anaconda3by running conda init?” We recommend “yes”.

    Note

    If you enter “no”, then conda will not modify your shell scripts at all.In order to initialize after the installation process is done, first runsource<pathtoconda>/bin/activate and then run condainit.

    Note

    If you are on macOS Catalina, the new default shell is zsh.You will instead need to run source<pathtoconda>/bin/activatefollowed by condainitzsh.

  8. The installer displays “Thank you for installing Anaconda!”

  9. Optional: The installer describes the partnership between Anaconda and JetBrains andprovides a link to install PyCharm for Anaconda athttps://www.anaconda.com/pycharm.

  10. Close and open your terminal window for the Anaconda installation to take effect.

  11. To control whether or not each shell session has the base environmentactivated or not, run condaconfig--setauto_activate_baseFalseorTrue. To run conda from anywhere without having the base environmentactivated by default, use condaconfig--setauto_activate_baseFalse.This only works if you have run condainit first.

    Note

    condainit is available in conda versions 4.6.12 and later.

  12. Verify your installation.
