Clean Install Mavericks

2014-09-28 Thread The Believer
I thought I had saved all information regarding this topic but cannot locate my notes. Before I do any more installations of apps and tweaks, I should do this clean install. I created the bootable USB thumb drive using Diskmaker X and updated that to 10.9.5 so that is out of the way

Listers, I've just been on the phone to my bank to let them know that I can't find the "download statement" link which I normally used to use. They were very courteous and suggested a few tweaks in Safari like resetting it etc. While they were discussing the problem with their colleagues, I a
