Those of us who use Macs may have need to reinstall an older version of the OS from time to time. At the MacRecycleClinic, we keep thumb drives and external hard drives partitioned with individual installers from Catalina on back – or even Time Machine backups (which are quicker than OS installs).
While it might seem easy to just Google your request, it’s not always that easy. Thus, we offer a list of OS downloads (from the Apple website and beyond) so that you don’t have to go looking for them. Even tho Catalina is available via the App Store, we’ll include it here (as a link).
OS X 10.0: Cheetah – 24 March 2001 OS X 10.1: Puma – 25 September 2001 OS X 10.2: Jaguar – 24 August 2002 OS X 10.3 Panther (Pinot) – 24 October 2003 OS X 10.4 Tiger (Merlot) – 29 April 2005 OS X 10.4.4 Tiger (Chardonnay) OS X 10.5 Leopard (Chablis) – 26 October 2007 OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard – 28 August 2009. Mac OS X 10.1 was designed to address issues found in the initial release. While primarily focused on performance, Puma also introduced improved CD and DVD burning support as well as DVD playback and a new version of AppleScript with much better ties into system functionality.

Note that some of the earlier Mac OS varieties like OS 7 Lion is, for some reason, sold by Apple rather than provided for free (but keep reading – there’s a solution for that!). If you have a need for a really old OS and don’t want to download and install, contact MacRecycleClinic, as we have DVDs with most of the older OS software – including some PowerPC software, and can help you with the install.
If you want to make a bootable installer (to put on an external drive or thumb drive), this is what Apple suggests. Better is this great free (donationware) App – DiskMakerX.

By the way – this is an interesting compilation of all the older Apple/Mac software. It’s a list only as the “links” don’t work.
