A plus-sign button on the right lets you open a new tab, and you can drag and drop tabs just like in a Web browser. The new Finder Tabs work much in the same way the tabs do in Safari. So while there are tons of new and useful features here, the Mac OS remains familiar, friendly, and functioning mostly the way it always has. On top of that, it features new interface elements for Safari, a new tagging system for file management, and much more. What results is a Mac OS that remains familiar to its users, gives apps a cleaner look, brings more iOS apps to your desktop, fixes old bugs, and improves core technologies for power efficiency and responsiveness. Apple, on the other hand, is keeping its mobile and desktop OSes separate, while bringing over iOS apps and features without significantly changing the way you use your computer. Microsoft's stated intent was to break into the mobile space by creating a touch-centric OS that worked on both desktops and mobile devices, and while I like the upgrade for overall performance, I still think changing the way people interact with their computers amounts to more trouble than it's worth (as I wrote in this post last year). We walk you through the actual installation recommend some post-install tasks discuss some upgrade challenges and help you decide if a “clean install”-erasing your drive and starting from scratch-is for you.With Windows 8.1 hitting last week, Apple's Mavericks provides a stark contrast to the vision of Microsoft's operating system. In the articles below, we cover the requirements for running Mavericks the things you should do to get your Mac ready and the download process. But that doesn’t mean you should make the jump with no preparation, or that there are no important decisions to make along the way.Īs we do with every new version of OS X, we’ve installed Mavericks more times than we can count in order to put together a comprehensive guide to installing the latest Mac OS. A few clicks (and some patience) is all it takes to install OS X 10.9 over your existing copy of Mountain Lion, Lion, or Snow Leopard (or, if you’re brave, even Leopard). Mavericks (OS X 10.9) is here! And just as with Lion (OS X 10.7) and Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8) before it, getting Mavericks is as easy as downloading an installer from the Mac App Store.
