WELCOME………….

Pre-Requisite:

Windows OS:10/8.1/8/7 [Only and ONLY 64 Bit OS is supported]

RAM: 4 GB+ [Please do not try installing MAC OS X if you have less than 4 GB RAM. The Virtual OS will simply crawl.

CPU: Intel Pentium Dual Core/i3/i5/i7/Celeron [AMD ATHLON PROCESSOR IS NOT SUPPORTED NORMALLY, THERE ARE WAYS, HOWEVER THOSE ARE ONLY FOR GEEKS]

Free Hard Disk: 40 GB for MAC OS X and another 2 GB for needful software. YOU DO NOT NEED TO HAVE 40 GB IN C:/ DRIVE.

Note:

Download Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended trial for Mac to create powerful images and discover new dimensions in digital imaging.

1. Actually later you will understand that the location you will choose for the virtual machines virtual RAM will need maximum 8 GB space. [THOUGH THIS DEPENDS UPON HOW MUCH RAM YOU ALLOCATE FOR MAC OS X – HERE I ASSUME YOU WILL MAX ALLOCATE 4 GB RAM TO MAC OS X]

Download El Capitan Installer

2. Also the OS X 10.11 El Capitan Retail (VMWare virtual disk file with .vmdk extension) file size is 9.64 GB. THIS IS YOUR MAC OS X HARD DISK. WITH TIME WHEN YOU WILL UPDATE YOUR MAC OS X FROM VERSION 10.11 TO 10.11.5 (Latest as of June 2016) THIS FILE SIZE WILL INCREASE.ALSO WITH TIME IF YOU PLAN TO INSTALL MAC SOFTWARES THIS WILL GET LARGER AND LARGER UP TO 83 GB (MAXIMUM LIMIT).

So in brief:

MAC OS Hard Disk without update to 10.11.5 & 4 GB virtual MAC RAM=25 GB will do.

MAC OS Hard Disk with update to 10.11.5 & 4 GB virtual MAC RAM=30 GB will do.

MAC OS Hard Disk with update to 10.11.5 & 4 GB virtual MAC RAM + Software > 40 GB needed.

HOWEVER, THE MAC HARD DISKS LIMITATION IS 80 GB.

IF YOU ARE NEWBIE TO MAC OS X THEN IT IS SAFER FOR YOU TO CHOOSE ONE OF YOUR WINDOWS PARTITION WHERE YOU CAN CREATE FOLDER/S OF ATLEAST 40 GB SIZE.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE CHOOSEN WINDOWS PARTITION WILL NOT BE DELETED OR FORMATED.

NOTE THAT WE HAVE INCLUDED BOTH VMWARE WORKSATION 12 PRO & VMWARE WORKSTATION 12 PLAYER – THE NON-COMMERCIAL FREE VERSION OF VMWARE WORKSTATION PRO.

THOUGH THE PRO VERSION IS MUCH MORE POWERFUL THAN THE PLAYER VERSION, IF YOUR OBJECTIVE IS ONLY TO VIRTUALIZE THE MAC OS X OPERATING SYSTEM – IT IS RECOMMENDED TO USE VMWARE WORKSTATION 12 PLAYER WHICH CONSUMES LESS SYSTEM MEMORY BUT YIELDS THE SAME RESULT FOR VIRTUALIZING MAC OS X – EL CAPITAN.

VMWARE WORKSTATION 12 PRO IS REALLY A RAM CONSUMING SOFTWARE. UNLESS YOU HAVE PLENTY OF RAM FOR YOUR WINDOWS AND VIRTUAL MAC OS X IT IS RECOMMENDED TO GO FOR VMWARE WORKSTATION 12 PLAYER.

THE CONFIGURATION IS SAME FOR BOTH THE PRO AND FREE VERSION.

Step One:

Start or Restart your Computer.

Now go to UEFI or Bios setup.

Find for ‘INTEL VIRTUALIZATION TECHNOLOGY’ and Enable the option.

Reviewer: Beau Tibbs - favorite favorite favorite favorite - February 6, 2021 Subject: El Capitan installer - be patient I used this installer to put back an apple OS on my mid 2009 MacBook Pro. The progress indicator was nicely counting down until it said 'about one second remaining'. Macbook Pro 13' 2015 with OS X Yosemite on board. I've been trying to install OS X El Capitan, but always get the following message: 'This copy of the Install OS X El Capitan application can't be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading.' By the way this is not a date time issue, date is correct on my computer. Compared to versions of Mac OS X released after El Capitan, such as Sierra, El Capitan generally is not faster. Mac computers dating from 2012 and later will generally run more smoothly when upgraded from El Capitan, per Apple's optimizations in Sierra and later. On the other hand, Macs from 2008 to 2010 may run faster with El Capitan.

Download macOS El Capitan 10.11.1 latest version free DMG image installer for Macintosh by clicking the below button. You can also download Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.6

These advanced steps are primarily for system administrators and others who are familiar with the command line. You don't need a bootable installer to upgrade macOS or reinstall macOS, but it can be useful when you want to install on multiple computers without downloading the installer each time.

What you need to create a bootable installer

  • A USB flash drive or other secondary volume formatted as Mac OS Extended, with at least 14GB of available storage
  • A downloaded installer for macOS Big Sur, Catalina, Mojave, High Sierra, or El Capitan

Download macOS

  • Download: macOS Big Sur, macOS Catalina, macOS Mojave, or macOS High Sierra
    These download to your Applications folder as an app named Install macOS [version name]. If the installer opens after downloading, quit it without continuing installation. To get the correct installer, download from a Mac that is using macOS Sierra 10.12.5 or later, or El Capitan 10.11.6. Enterprise administrators, please download from Apple, not a locally hosted software-update server.
  • Download: OS X El Capitan
    This downloads as a disk image named InstallMacOSX.dmg. On a Mac that is compatible with El Capitan, open the disk image and run the installer within, named InstallMacOSX.pkg. It installs an app named Install OS X El Capitan into your Applications folder. You will create the bootable installer from this app, not from the disk image or .pkg installer.
