Quick way to download Catalina 10.15.4 full installer:Thanks Casey,
I have quite a few Nvme drives around so no problem with that.
Your experience here and other members is invaluable to say the least. I was sooo thinking that this upgrade method is just asking for glitches and No Joy lol
Thanks for Verifying the Re-install answer.
I contributed $10.00 here just yesterday and wonder if it shows anywhere in our account? I love final cut and Logic so will do whatever it takes to keep this forum alive and pumping

- Wait for downloads to finish (15-20 minutes).

- Then double-click the file in green: BuildmacOSInstallApp.command.
- You will now see this:
- Now drag-and-drop the blue file from the screenshot above, InstallESDDmg.pkg, into the Terminal window.
