A appreciate the help. Between one thing and another, I never had time to try this, knowing what could go wrong and how long it would take to recover from any mistake. Now I find myself low on disk space, so I don't think I can install Yosemite on this machine. Can anyone tell me how, or even if,I can recover the gigabytes I somehow managed to deallocate from my startup disk's partition? I have, I think, nine gigs floating around that I could reassign. Thanks. On Jul 27, 2014, at 11:40 AM, Sabahattin Gucukoglu <listse...@me.com> wrote:
