Hi,

I'm currently using a MBP mid 2010. Looking to do a clean instal to el capitan as current iTunes on Yosemite can't support iOS 12.

I've tried downloading it via the App Store, however, for some reasons, they would not allow me to download it.

I've downloaded the El Capitan file in pkg package, however I need help in transferring it to a bootable drive.

Is anyone here would be kind enough to assist me? Tried Googling but can't really find any solutions at the moment.

Thanks.

Did you kept your El Capitan.app some where?
