I need to create a USB Boot Up containing the Yosemite Installer. All the methods i have found on the internet insist that i have the Yosemite.app installer, to create the USB before installing the OS. I don't have the installer in my applications folder it's been a while since i installed the Yosemite. How can i create the USB Boot up now since i don't have the Yosemite.app ? I tried to use a third party application like the DiskMAker application but it also needs that i have the installer.. Any Ideas?
It turned out that there is no other way to do it without re-downloading the file once again from the app store. Maybe Apple should take care of that matter
You should be able to redownload the "Install Yosemite.app" from the App Store even on a Mac running 10.10. The App Store will display a warning about Yosemite being already installed, but you can simply click "Continue".
Once downloaded, you can use any guide out there to create a USB Installer, for example this one, which also talks about redownloading the Installer.

Any input will be greatly appreciated
In my case, I had a Steam Streaming Microphone and Steam Streaming Speakers. This answer helped in my case.
I had to go to /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL (use the terminal or press ⌘⇧G in Finder and paste the path there). There I found the two drivers and removed them. Restart afterward for it to take effect.
Please open the “Finder”, then select “Go”->”Go to Folder”.
Fill in “/System/Library/Extensions” if you are using Mac OS X 10.8, or ” /Library/Extensions” for Mac OS X 10.9 and later, and click “Go”, then delete the file Apowersoft_AudioDevice.kext, then reboot your Mac.
If the above-mentioned ways cannot solve your problem, you can go to “Finder”, then select “Go”->”Go to Folder”. Then enter “/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL/Apowersoft Audio Device.driver” and click “Go”. Afterwards, please delete the “Apowersoft Audio Device.driver” folder, and restart your Mac. Then the Apowersoft Audio Device will be removed completely.

Try /Library/Application Support and see if you find any Apowersoft folder(s) there. If so delete them and reboot your Mac. That should resolve your problem ;)

Trying to update from Xcode 11 GM to 11.1 always fail.
I tried moving /Applications/Xcode.app first... nothing works
This is my commerce log:
2019-10-08 12:29:08+01 leviathan installd[556]: PackageKit: Install Failed: Error Domain=PKInstallErrorDomain Code=501 "The package is attempting to install content to the system volume." UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=The package is attempting to install content to the system volume.} {
Manual download
The always working and preferred workaround!
Download directly from Apple:
Latest Release version or
Latest Beta version or
Any version you need and all other downloadable contents
Then extract and move it where you like. This has so many benefits comparing to AppStore updates. (like the ability to resume download, not replacing the old one, not wasting hidden directories and etc.)
Note that you should use safari to download it.
Force App Store to re-download.
Apple suggested this workaround but many developers (including me)prefer manual download to save a lot of network traffic!
Since This is Known Issues
Xcode may fail to update from the Mac App Store after updating to macOS Catalina. (56061273)
Apple suggest this:
To trigger a new download you can delete the existing Xcode.app or temporarily change the file extension so it is no longer visible to the App Store.

I've had my system on the OS X developer beta but have now installed the released version of El Capitan, and I'd like to leave the Beta program now.
Oddly the preferences pane for App Store doesn't have the entire row that this article details, so I can't change this.
I can't find another way to leave the Beta
Edit: I know I'm still signed up because I just got the system update notification for the developer beta 10.11.1
Edit: App Store preferences without the pre-release option
Turn it off in System settings.
EDIT:
If you can't see it there then hit this command
sudo defaults delete /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL
or manually edit
sudo vim /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist

I want to ask, if I format my computer (currently running windows10 genuine) and use some other OS for a while and then again install windows10, will I be able to reactivate my windows with the same key which is working currently on my pc ?
That should work just fine, provided you can install the same version. A key for Home won't work on Pro and vice versa, and there are also OEM versions and Volume License versions, so make sure which exact version you have.
If you have an installation CD or an ISO for the right edition (the one you have the key for) you'll be fine. You can re-install from that CD multiple times.
If Windows came preinstalled, you'd better make an image of the hard drive which you can restore later.

I have two HDs in my Macbook Pro 15 in late 2009. I installed bootcamp and updated to Mavericks. My Windows partition in running Win7 Ultimate. I set the the boot disk in OSX to be my windows partition and now my laptop doesn't recognize me holding down the option key to choose which partition to boot. When windows boots i have to start the on screen keyboard and then close it for my keyboard presses to be recognized. The quote key causes the option and control keys to stick and delete doesn't work at all. I would use the bootcamp panel to switch back but it didn't install. i would really appreciate any help because i'm behind in my web dev projects and don't want to reinstall OSX because i'll lose my data, plus i took out the disc drive for my other HD.
You should try reseting PRAM.
If it not helps than probably some key are stuck and it cause other keys don't work.
Try to find and fix broken key by using this or this manual.
If it not helps, than it probably hardware keyboard problem.
