i am new to mac... on maverick.. so what's the step before going for Yosemite? how to backup things like we did on iphone? is it the same? or just move to external HDD? o.O any guide? XD

nope, nothing similar to backing up iphones at all.

3 options:

1. manually move ur files to external DVD, or upload to some cloud service.

2. clone ur current drive (use SuperDrive or Carbon Copy Cloner app) to a external hard drive. this creates a bootable copy of ur current drive. meaning, u can take this external drive, connect to another mac, boot from the external and it's exactly as how u left it.

3. backup using Time Machine to an external hard drive. this is not a bootable copy, but handy for you to 'go back in time' to retrieve deleted / damaged files n so on.

more info on 2 & 3, just google the bolded keywords tongue.gif

Lion is horrible bro. I managed to switch back to snow leopard after using lion for a week or so.

things changed with mavericks, it ran just as well as snow leopard on my 2008 MBP. yosemite also i dont feel any slowdown at all. so im pretty sure you're good to go smile.gif
