RE: Where to download a copy of MacOS Catalina
Hi Greg, You can do it that way but the key is to cancel the installation at the point it starts after the download has finished. -Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Greg Wocher Sent: Thursday, 19 December 2019 9:35 AM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Where to download a copy of MacOS Catalina Hello all, I am trying to find out where I can download a copy of MacOS Catalina. I need it so I can create a bootable USB drive to make it easier to do a clean install on my Mac. I tried getting it from the app store but when I try and get it, it just takes me to the software update section in system preferences.

Re: Where to download a copy of MacOS Catalina
Bu the way, the upgrade will proceed after download but when the download is complete, you can close out of Software Update then create the USB installer.

Re: Where to download a copy of MacOS Catalina
Mac App store, Utilities category. Make sure you do not have any copies of the installer on your drive. Usually the installer goes poof after installation but make sure. I store mine on an external drive so I can create those USB installers. From E.T.'s Keyboard... ancient.ali...@icloud.com Many believe that we have been visited in the past. What if it were true?
