First, download the installer from the app store. There is an application called diskmaker x If you do a google search for it, it should be the first result. Once you have that, run it and follow the instructions. It will create a bootable install using a partition on a drive, or you can dedicate an 8 GB flash drive or memory card to it. Depending on the speed of the drive, it may take a little while, but once it's done, you can boot the mac using it and have an install disk that you can use on any mac.

Hi:
How did you transfer Maverics to make a bootable disk?

Hey everyone, well, on one of my macs, it refused to boot off of the internal drive, though all of the files were there. Not sure what happened, but, I decided this might be the time to install 10.9.1 on it. So far so good. It's actually much more responsive, and the mail program works fine, at least in the classic mode. I don't use conversation mode. I think one important key is doing a clean install. INstalling a new operating system over the top of another one is trouble waiting to happen, even if the software allows you to do it. Assuming I don't run in to other problems, will probably upgrade my other 2 macs as well.
