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 doesnвЂ™t mean you should make the jump with no preparation, or that there are no important decisions to make along the way.ДЄs we do with every new version of OS X, weвЂ™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 youвЂ™re brave, even Leopard).

When I saw the finishing installation dialog, I thought the other parts of the update went through, but the App Store made it clear that nothing was installed.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.

This, however, prevented the full package from installing, not just the iTunes portion, which by itself did not require a restart. It was indeed the iTunes update that was corrupted, which the dialog informed me. This is why I ultimately needed assistance to get beyond this dialog. Furthermore, since I couldn't bring the keyboard focus into the window, I couldn't hit the Restart button in any fashion, including pressing Return, which usually works with dialogs, but not this time. This was despite the fact that I could very clearly see the window on the screen with my limited vision. Every method I know of to switch windows failed, and VoiceOver kept telling me there were no windows whenever I tried to do anything. When the error happened to me, I could not get VoiceOver to acknowledge there was anything on the screen. Just simply ask and the choice is up to you and yours alone.ДЄpart from this though, loving the update! :) I am by no means forcing or employing people to go and do this. So if most people like the newer compact voices of the three names mentioned well just let them know but if you don't, then of course, you don't have to let them know. I emailed them now, while the newer update is in its early stages just to make them aware of it but I'd suggest to everyone, that if you like the newer compact voices of English Daniel, Samantha, and Karen, that you email them with the above address provided because one email isn't going to be read and acted upon by one person who wants something. Since this update, Apple I believe is to be working on 10.9.4 so I've already emailed mentioning this too them in the hope they can add it into the next up-coming update to Mavericks. I know this is subjective so what I may like will differ from someone else but what do you all think? I was hoping we would of gotten the newer compact voices in this update of the OS and for Voiceover. The one thing I'm only disappointed with and I'd be interested to know what others think about this. This time, it ran flawlessly, without any corrupted download. A minute later, things were back to normal, and I tried to install the update a second time. The computer then restarted, and I was then presented with a dialog indicating that the installation was finishing, which was curious since nothing actually installed. In the end, I needed the helper to press the Restart button in the dialog for me, since I could not activate it in any way with the keyboard.

Since I was logged out, I could not use the zoom tool to view the dialog, so I needed to ask for sighted help, the first time I ever had to do this since learning how to use VoiceOver. Unfortunately, VoiceOver would not recognize this dialog as being on screen and claimed that there were no windows, even though I could tell with my limited vision that one was definitely there. Instead, a single dialog was on screen, which evidently informed me that the download for the update was corrupt and to try again after restarting. When I returned a few hours later, I found that the computer was not back to normal.

After hitting the Restart button, I left the computer and assumed the update would happen as it usually does. I decided to update manually instead of waiting for it to happen automatically. I had a rather unusual experience updating to 10.9.3, and I hope this is the only time I have something like this happen.
