The easiest way to ensure the correct path is used is is by typing the first part of the command and leaving a space. I'm providing a template of the extraction command from memory since I don't have access to a Mac to confirm exact path names. Make sure to first use the Finder to mount the downloaded. Really I am trying to put any OS (likely Yosemite or El Capitan) on an old iMac that was completely wiped and that seems like the only way to do it as downloading directly doesn't seem to be working. It just says it is "not allowed" on my new laptop. I am having the same issue and it won't let me install anything to the Applications folder. If there are no errors in creating the USB installer and it won't boot, then try using another brand of USB stick as Macs can be very picky. There is a chance that the Yosemite installer is different than the more recent ones. If you cannot get the instructions to work, then please post a screenshot of the command used and the output. Compare the command to Sierra to see what I mean.Īssuming Apple keeps the same naming convention for the Yosemite installer found in the Applications folder, the following command should be the Yosemite equivalent to create the USB installer (make sure you USB stick is properly erased as "MyVolume": sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia -volume /Volumes/MyVolume -applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite.app You will need to modify it slightly in two places to account for the different application name for the installer, otherwise the rest of the paths in the command should be the same. Edit: This response was for are the Apple instructions:
