    I hardly ever comment on anything online, BUT I love the way you explain everything with as many details as someone dumb like me needs not to make anything wrong. In addition to that, you're also funny, which makes watching a 17-minute video enjoyable. Last thing: it's very important when you say that something is going to take a long time, so one won't get too anxious with the thought that he/she must've broken the computer during the process just because it's taking forever for something to get done. Keep up the good work!

    This is the best tutorial for clean install Sierra I have come across. Being a "don't know computers" person it's wonderful that you took the time to show every step. Am now in the process of downloading Sierra and boy is it taking a long time. Once done, I will return to follow through.

    I had to download Sierra from another Mac onto the USB, because I was locked out of my itunes account. Then copy the Sierra File from the USB into the Applications folder on the Mac I wanted to do the clean install on. You must put the file in the correct location for the Terminal command to locate the file. If you just leave the Sierra file on the USB without copying it to the Applications folder, Terminal will tell you it does not recognize the command. Just trying to save you guys some time, I learned the long, stressed right out, pissed right off way. Thanks for the video. Appreciate the time you spent on this tutorial.

    I really like your way to talk, it's easy to listen to your voice. Reinstalling and repairing a pc is a common thing for me, but now I have to fix a MacPro, so I'm happy about your video. The steps seems pretty similar to clean install win10, there are only some differences.

    Refrence time stamp in this video: 11:20
    NOTE: If you run get an error directly after trying to delete your drive and it doesn't format. Simply go back and repeat the action to delete and type in the name as suggested "Macintosh HD" and it should work the second time. It did for me. Possibly the drive was dismounted in the delete process and reconnected the second time I did the action it formatted as intended.
    Thanks for the step by step vid bro, and your recording of your laptop in the second half of this video was sharp and clear like you used an iPhone to record that part, it was much better quality than expected! You saved me a trip to the Mac Store genius bar!

    If for whatever reason the OS fails to install properly or you find it is slow on your computer and you don't have any recovery discs or USB drives with older versions of OS X you can use Internet recovery to restore your mac. Keep in mind that if you choose this option to restore you will restore your computer back to the OS it came with so if your MacBook came with Mavericks like mine, internet recovery will re-install mavericks and you can upgrade from there. Just make sure you check to see if your computer supports Internet Recovery before you try it. Check Here: apple.co/2r8ffvO

      When I erase and reinstall the system all I get is OSX 10.9.5
      I can not update it to anything above this and I have to as for example Microsoft Office or Final Cut or even bloody chrome says I need 10.10 or higher. I can’t choose Apple File System files neither when I erase everything form the disk. Can anyone help, please?

    @jamesmabry2261 7 лет назад +1

    Thanks for the video. What is advantage to doing a clean install? I understand that a mac can get slower and a clean install will help that situation. But is the reason for the slower mac cluttered operating system or other apps and files causing the problem? If I do a clean install, what about bringing back in all the files and apps? Will that just slow it down again?

    • @FilmsRuiz
      @FilmsRuiz  7 лет назад +1

      well, over the years your hard drive gathers a bunch of unwanted clutter that takes up space. A clean install wipes the hard drive of all the unwanted clutter and the stuff you do want you back up to a memory card or USB and transfer it over when the process is done. Apps downloaded from the App store can be re-downloaded for free but other apps that were not downloaded from the app store may be re-downloaded from their websites but may require a product key. You don't have to wipe your hard drive and just install macOS sierra from the installer you download from the app store.

    Immediately after install of second Sierra Beta install, no external USB devices are being recognised. Late 2012 MacBook Pro with two USB3.0 ports.
    Seems the devices are found in under System Report/Information through 'About this Mac' and are shown as receiving power output from the MacBook (also device power LEDs are lit, but do not show in Finder and are not accessible in anyway. Non-powered USB devices are also not being recognised.
    Have tried an SMC Reset and also a NVRAM reset as suggested in various forum threads but still nothing working. MacBook also has an SD Card port and this works fine when a card is inserted. Also tried basic system restarts and shut downs with and without devices plugged in.
    All help much appreciated as this bug makes it difficult to do quite a lot of things...

    You are a wonderful instructor, well spoken. Question...I bought a refurbished iMac 2011 and the store did wipe the computer. It has 10.12.3 Sierra but the ID and password were set up by the store tech. Do I need to start over and do my own clean install addressing the ID and password issue along with apple ID or can i set up this iMac without redoing a clean install? Thanks for your awesome presentation.

    • @FilmsRuiz
      @FilmsRuiz  7 лет назад

      If you know the password and user ID, just go into the settings and look for accounts and change it there. Im not at my mac right now so I can't name the exact setting off the top of my head. you can clean install the OS if you like though but thats a bit much in my opinion

    Everything was going well up until I was copying Sierra to the Flash drive. I keep getting 'command not found' after copying the Terminal line, and pasting into the window. The pwd is still asked for, but after that goes in, I get the error.
    Backups have been done, TimeMachine, so I am really looking to do a clean install of Sierra.

      Guys, I really am doing a clean install of my Mac and have done the backup:)!
      Hopefully others will see this from the other strings, but once you get High Sierra onto your HD and done your backup, make the installer by going to macdaddy.io/install-disk-creator/ and take things from there (refer to this vid from Everything Tech to get the image going). Good luck.

      Forgot to mention, when you copy Sierra to the Flash Drive, it takes a long time, so be patient. At the end, you will get a confirmation when all is done.
