Apple OSX INSTALLATION ERROR "AN ERROR OCCURRED WHILE PREPARING THE INSTALLATION. TRY RUNNING THIS APPLICATION AGAIN"
so you've tried to install a version of Apple OSX and you've hit a speed bump, yep you've gone through each of the steps and then suddenly you've got the error
"An error occurred while preparing the installation. Try running again"
What does this error Mean?
all it basically means is that the current system time and date is incorrect, therefore when your installation of Apple OSX, attempts to download information from the apple servers, it then discovered that the Current time is incorrect and therefore cant proceed to installation
How do we FIX this error
Simple, all we need to do is chance the current date and time your apple product
How to Change the date and time
First of all we need to open terminal within the OSX installer utilities. then enter the command below to confirm that the date is incorrect.
date
The result of this command will be the date that the system currently has been set to. For some reason, it might have been reset to 2001, in which case we need to set it to the right date. To do this, we enter a new command. This command will be entered as follows:
date {month}{day}{hour}{minute}{year}
Every bracket should be replaced with a two-digit number. For example, March 18th 2000 12:00 would become the following command:
date 0318120000
Enter the command and hit return. You can then check if it was set correctly by running the first command again. If the date was wrong, it was likely that which caused the error, and after you quit the terminal it should be able to install OS X just fine.
