bro after searching and searching, i came across your video and i could finally change to an ssd with new OS, this worked thanks 🙏🏻

[godfreyjones]

nice educational tutorial video bro. you really made my day bright as the sunshine🌞 and really appreciate the knowledge given out to the viewers👌

Great video brother!Worked like a charm. Now I am able to try out different versions of MacOS, without committing to the change on my main drive, and the need to use time machine to roll it back if I don’t like it.
The original purpose for doing this is to use TurboTax 2022 that will not install on Catalina, but will run on Big Sur or higher. I have yet to install TurboTax 22 on the external flash drive on which I have installed Big Sur, but I don’t imagine it’s going to be a problem. Again, thank you, as this really helped!

This is perfect. Im attempting to make my old macbook headless, but alas, i ripped the guts years ago as a filter burnt out and now was unusable. I have a macos VM on my server so i can do this

I've tried this over and over now and every time I go to boot from the external drive it just loads back up through the internal? How do I fix this?

[derekmcmurtry]

Nice Video, When you boot to the external drive, do you have access to the internal drives? ( user folders?) also, do you have any direct links to older MAC OS?

I remember now ... I did this back in 2013 on a i5 2011 Macbook Pro .. Good This Video Is Still Around ... Big Help To Remember .. OPTION lol .. totally forgot

[MrSeube]

Thanks for this tuto. Once MacOSx is on the external drive, is bootable and usable, is it possible to install this external drive as internal drive (into a minimac) ?

[eliofeghali]

Thanks for this vid! But can you please make a video for laptops that have windows and want to dualboot it with mac?

[glockcallme]

hi I have a problem when I can't boot the mac os from external drive because it say it's locked

[Qwestionmark]

Thanks for this. A question: if I upgrade the MacOS installed on the external SSD, would it still work on an unsupported device? e.g. Can Big Sur run on a 2013 iMac from an external SSD?

[bsf]

Thanks for the video. I did the same steps, but using the internet. Everything is fine, but when it boots, the download stops on the apple logo, then it restarts automatically and stops again on the apple logo.

Hey there, I installed the Update on my external but now I would like to remove it from my external and revert it back to a standard external hard drive with no update or start-up disk, how do I do this? Thanks so much!

[jamessullivan]

Can i partion a hard drive with with one side bootcamp windows filesystem on it - and the other osx operating system at the same drive? (i.e two different OS, in one system?)

Hello, I installed MacOS Monterey on an external USB and formatted an external HDD 1tb to Guid scheme and MacOS extended. When I boot into the USB, I can’t select the the HDD. It says “The operation couldn’t be completed” and it’s grayed out. what could be the issue?

[jennitsu]

SCHEME option not showing in my early 2015

Hi iMat.. I have a question.My current Mac does not go beyond Catalina 10.15.7. I cannot use MS Office 365 below version 11.0.0. So, the option here is to find MS Office 2010 for Mac or can I install Mohave with version 11 on external hard drive and use keep using my current laptop.

Hello, I have a Macbook Pro 2019 with 250 GB internal, but I can't even install the software I need, I work on something that requires more. I would like to use my external solid drive as primary and I'm confirming whether to select AFPS or Extended Journaled. It would be to install OS X on that 1 TB SSD external device and also use it, not only to create the installation image. Do you know if I select Mac OS X Extended (journaled) again in that case?
