I have only ever owned the one Imac and never upgraded the software (only auto updates) and I was just about to pay the $20 to update my operating system from 10.5.8 to whatever the latest version is and then it dawned on me, ive never done this before ... i'm not sure if this would be different from when i upgraded my windows software many moons ago.
Is it necessary to back up every single thing on my imac? Will i lose everything?
I have had to use disk warrior from time to time to fix registry problems and I was about to use it yesterday for the same reason but then I thought, would the software upgrade address this registry problem during the upgrade or should I use diskwarrior first, and then upgrade?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
