Hi all! I'd like to try Yosemite but I only have 1 main mac. Can someone send me a link on how to partition my hard drive so I can use yosemite separately. Thank you!
Got a tip for us?

So only option is to try other account? Sorry, I'm not going to do so, enough of accounts for me.
whaaaaat did you just tell me NOT to forget while i am already installing it?oo... if it doesn't boot up now, is there a way to get it working?
Thanks!
This only applies after you install Yosemite and try to run TRIM enabler. Nothing will be harmed by installing Yosemite.
Learn your lesson for next time.. Why would you want half finished software.. Do you take a cake out of the oven early as well?..
Somehow I'm not surprised. I guess ppl bombarded them with queries regarding already redeemed codes.
ok, so, people who say sign in or go to app store, purchases tab, there's nothing there...I think you have to go to here: https://appleseed.apple.com/sp/betaprogram/guide (sign in) then click on "get your yosemite redemption code" ...but, I did this and then it said "we'll be back...", now it looks like the whole thing is down.
Apple trying t make it easier, ended up quite the opposite..
Why did Apple go down the Redeem method ? If it's for security, you need to login anyway.
It would have been better just to do what they did with 10.9.4 beta..
download a small app, which then downloads OS from the app store.

Wow, the install itself sure is slow. Started at 22 minutes and is just at 19 minutes 15 minutes later. Hope everything is okay.
Is it possible to then delete the Mavericks partition later, upgrade the beta to full version and continue using that one, or will you need to start from scratch?
Can't even download it, estimated time remaining is 1 day
Apples servers must be being hammered.

Somebody in the iMore forum said you quit the Beta and rejoin to get a new number.
See this video. Be sure to watch the whole thing. Also make sure you are backed up. S* happens. Have fun.
Can anyone help me with a small issue I am having? I partitioned about 65 GB of space on my rMBP to install Yosemite onto, and the install went smoothly and everything booted up fine.
The issue I am having is that when I start the rMBP up and hit the option key while booting it gives me an option to boot into either the Yosemite partition or the recovery partition, but no option to boot into my Mavericks partition, can anyone tell me why this is?
