Xerxes Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Hey guys, I am running 10.4.6 on my vaio and I want to upgrade to 10.4.8 so I can use Adobe CS3. Will I have to reformat or can I just pop the 10.4.8 disk in and have it update, but keep my files and settings? Thanks!

dmbpettit Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 I am considering doing the same thing. Any ideas? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/53297-upgrade-from-6-to-8/#findComment-387758 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macshiba Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 I've been wanting to do the same thing, but when I put in the 10.4.8 disk, it wouldn't let me upgrade my volume, I had to reformat it as a Journaled partition and then install the 10.4.8. So, unless it was just my copy, I think you're going to have to lose everything, which really sucks.

Synaesthesia Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Hey Guys Here is a detailed forum discussion. Basically, do you have SSE3 intel? Then you should be able to upgrade to 10.4.8 without too much problem. If you have another type, don't worry, it can be done... Please note that is a manual method. One automatic method you can try that worked well for me, is EGWAN's installer. This definitely works well if you have an intel sse3 system (like mine) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/53297-upgrade-from-6-to-8/#findComment-387864 Share on other sites More sharing options...
