      For real one person skip the whole fact that I had to install the download so I dragged it into applications and ran into all type of shit just to find out I had to install it. I hate when people skip the step process you can't just jump from step 2 to 4.

I’ve booted the laptop up through that bootable usb and dowloaded OS X El Capitan onto the laptop. But my issue is, is that the laptop isn’t picking up any internal storage. Another video I was following had the same issue, and said that’s you need to make the bootable usb, boot it up through that usb and then it would just “work out” (but they didn’t go through the process to do that) then they got the storage to show up but I don’t know how he did it. Is there any way you could help me at all?

    Couldn't make this work. Running Monterey (12.1) on a 2017 iMac.

After I click "allow," another window pops up that says "This version of OS X 10.11 cannot be installed on this computer."
    I'm trying to make a bootable disk for an old 2011 MacBook Pro. I had erased the system software expecting a clean reinstall and am not able to reinstall the OS X through the usual manner (command +R) at startup, etc.
    Any advice would be appreciated as the MacBook is currently a paperweight. Great video, BTW!

    Brother, when it’s starting to copy installer files to disk after that starts making disk bootable, during that it says couldn’t mount dmg then coming along with it two lines of that copy paste sentence form the El Capitan and saying error code 109 mount of outer dmg failed. Why is that brother? How can I fix it? Thanks

      Hello paji, Actually you cannot install the highest version of mac os x in your laptop which is mid 2011. Because The last compatible version is macOS 10.13. 6 (17G65), High Sierra
