Apple makes the hardware, so there's no need to worry about drivers or anything. If you get a printer or some other peripheral, you'd install the drivers it comes with, but for the actual system there's nothing to worry about. Reinstalling OS X is simply a matter of downloading the OS from the App Store and letting it run. You can create install drives if you like, such as if you have to install on a few machines and you don't want to download over 5GB of OS for each one. Again though, with no drivers to worry about, there's no need for a backup specific to your particular Mac. Of course, you should back up your files, and that's where Time Machine or other backup services come in. > On Aug 9, 2015, at 6:03 PM, Sunshine <sunsh...@abe.midco.net> wrote: > > On windows computers you install the computers hardware, before installing > windows. > Does this work the same way with the mac? > If not Do you get a driver disc plus the operating disc? > Or can you make your own back up copies for reinstall? > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "MacVisionaries" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to macvisionaries+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To post to this group, send email to macvisionaries@googlegroups.com. > Visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout.
