The best way to install Snow Leopard, from my point of view
Although Apple and left us with a fantastic and extensive input on how best to install the new operating system from Apple, I can not pass up the opportunity to discuss some personal experience with this system.
Few months I’ve been installing different versions of Snow Leopard and decided to install each in a different way, was a total test team for what was a bit like what happened. Basically, we can choose three options:
- Installing from scratch. It is the least comfortable of all because it requires “back leaving everything in place” but not you for sharing, if you have time and inclination, is the best ever.
- Update. It’s more comfortable, leave everything in place and you do not have to worry about anything. Curiously, it is the only one that has given me a problem, some software licenses became completely crazy and is by far the worst option of all. I sincerely recommend you.
- Using Time Machine. It is the best one by far because it integrates other improvements into a single option. Installing the system is so simple: make a backup with Time Machine and then install Snow Leopard from scratch. Once installed, simply choose your copy of Time Machine to dump all your user data.
The latter is undoubtedly the best results has given me. The speed is almost the same of a new system, your background is, and above all our documents, programs and preferences are automatically configured just finish installing. That if you be patient is somewhat slow in operation and function of the amount of data can take several hours.
