Things to do before installing OS X 10.8

Users should wait at least a week for developers to fix the remaining errors on OS X 10.8 and perform data backup before upgrading.

After OS X 10.8 was officially released, the Zdnet site gave some advice to users before upgrading the operating system. This source said, because OS X Mountain Lion changes the entire system, not small updates, so it greatly affects users.

Should not update OS X 10.8 at this time, the most common and troublesome user problem when upgrading an operating system is software failure. After upgrading to the latest operating system version, some applications in the computer often fail, cannot boot, connect to the Internet or lose data.

In addition, OS X 10.8 version was released only after 16 days of Golden Master. This means that developers only have two weeks to test the application running on it and will continue to fix the error after OS X Mountain Lion is released. Therefore, users should wait at least one week to download OS X 10.8 to the computer. In addition, customers should also refer to common mistakes and incompatible applications when updating the OS on Apple's website.

Before upgrading, users should back up data on the device. Data backup operations can be performed via Time Machine or external hard drive with some other software. Then, check to see if the backed up data can be used.
