This video is a deep dive into everything that you might need to know about restoring macOS using DFU mode on a 2nd Mac. I go over the cables that you need, the OS requirements, Apple Configurator 2, ISPW files and where to download them and troubleshooting. Let me know if you have any questions!
Hello there!! I’ve got the latest iMac and I’m trying to bridge from an external USB 3.2 SSD Keep on getting this error Sddomainerror108. I’ve been trying for hours and it seems other people have had the same issue. Any ideas dude? Thx :)
Hello I have tried to use Apple Configurator 2 to solve activation lock but I did not succeed it. When I put my MacBook Pro m1 silicon into DFU mode, it shows me everything I need to do but when I tried to revive or restore, it said that this Mac cannot be restored or revived. Can you help me please?
Sir, you are really a hero!!! I just successfully used the ISPW trick, after many previous tricks did not work. Your ability to explain is very clear and I followed step by step very carefully. Really thank you! warm greetings from Indonesia!
Thank you for showing how differently you entered DFU compared to the Apple Document page AND showing both scenarios of 11.0.1 and 11.0.0 . That helped me solve my issue.
Absolutely God sent. I just bought my apple silicon macbookpro and accidentally deleted all hard drive trying to reboot, i am very blessed to have my sisters macbook pro (intel,2020) AND THIS VIDEO THAT MADE A TECH NAIVE PERSON LIKE ME ACTUALLY RESTORE MY MAC 🥵❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ thankyou so much for this video Sir! Can everyone pls appreciate his calming voice and style of troubleshooting problems. Handsdown the best channel on YT for me❤️
Ramsha, I read hundreds of comments and this is one of the best. I truly appreciate it. I strive to make each one of my videos in a way that everyone can understand and follow along. I have brand new macOS users and advanced users who have been using the OS for 30 years! So I try to aim for the middle for both sets of users. When I see someone who was reluctant to try and fix something jump in and succeed, this makes my day! Thanks again 👍
I want to tell you THANK YOU for creating and sharing your highly informative content/tutorial. I spent half a day with 5 Apple Genius who could not resolve my issue, 3 didn't even listen and try to understand the problem, too busy reading off the script they had in front of them asking me the same question over and over again. In short, if it weren't for this video which helped me resolved the issue myself, my MBPM1 would be a brick right now.
Glad it helped HT, I'm sorry that you had to go through that frustrating experience! I'm glad you found this video and got your Apple Silicon Mac back up and running again!!
This video was very useful to help us get my wife's new MacBook Air up and running when the migration from her MacBook Air 2014 failed. We ended up having to wipe the new MacBook Air and then we had problems reestablishing the MacOS on the new machine. Once we used Mr. Macintosh's connection to the latest ipsw firmware, we were able to quickly get her new MacBook Air up and running. She is now a very happy "camper".
Geoffrey, this exactly the type of comment that I really enjoy seeing. I'm really happy that you were able to get your wifes new Air back up and running! 👍
Thanks so much! I was having issues getting into DFU mode. Had no idea the timing was so specific. Count it out to 10 seconds plus 7 after, that is key!!
Absolutely fantastic info on this site. My wife just got a silicon M1 MacBook Air and after installing her time machine backup with the initial new computer install the WiFi would not work. Even though the network symbol showed full bars, the computer kept saying you are not connected to the internet...therefore no mail, no safari, no siri. So we decided to try an erase and restore and since it is not in Intel machine...we did not know how to proceed. Mr. Macintosh had videos and several options that we could not find on apple sites (at least not that were understandable, thorough and worked. His did and w are back working! Thanks much.
Let me tell you I tip... It´s dic 2024 I DFU my bricked Macbook air M1 and downloaded the last version from your page Sequoia at this moment after a lot of errors I realized that I needed more space in my Mac Mini 2018 HDD for the file to unzip and install from the external disk and after months of trying I finally did it !!! Thank you so much !!!! God bless !!!
Wow can you come teach my college courses?! Computer problems stress me out big time, but you made everything seem so straightforward and easy. Thank you so much.
Just did this. To get to DFU Mode, I found I had to switch from my LG UltraFine 4K Display Thunderbolt 3 to a Belkin Thunderbolt 3 cable ( perhaps a bad cable ) Once I switch the cable, it immediately connected to DFU Mode in the Apple Configurator 2 app. The rest went extremely smooth and was done in about 90 min. Thanks for the video, Sir!
Hi, The installation process on my MacBook starts, but when the installation is almost complete, it turns off and does not turn on. Maybe you know what to do in this situation?
damn,than you so much for such detailed video Managed to brick macbook air on m1 and only with your vid i finally managed to get it to DFU mode and restore OS with configurator😎
anyway to do this without Apple Configurator 2? my only other extra Mac devices are on Catalina or Big Sur, and the app store wont allow me to download Apple Configurator 2 since the minimum OS is Monterey, Tried looking for a legacy link to download older versions of Apple Configurator 2 but no luck... bought a bricked M1 2021 macbook and I have two days to request a refund on OfferUp so hoping to resolve this issue instead of having to return it (i got a great price! smh)
Hey. Thank you very much for this so valuable video. I just could get the Macbook M1 restored with the downloaded ISPW file. Without it, I was getting some error message. Something regarding proxy server... so in case anyone else is having this same issue, try the manual process.
My operation failed. Later, I found a key point. You must keep pressing the power button for 1-2 seconds, and then press other key combinations. I was successful like this. You can try
Hi, I have a problem. When I start the process of installing my MacBook, at about 50 minutes before the end of the installation, it suddenly shuts down and does not turn on.Maybe you know what to do in such a situation?
I think you’ve been meaning to say IPSW File instead of ISPW. No big deal, just wanted to be accurate. Great video by the way and super detailed. Keep them coming. Thanks. You do have IPSW on your site.
Huge thanks for your help :) It was difficult to get my M1 to DFU mode, butt your pieces of advice did solve the problem. I have a hint for you. You can use a virtual machine and MacOs on a Windows machine also. I can tell you more if you want.
If someone has been infected with a BIOS/Firmware level virus, would this method be the ideal manner of removing it since it re-installs the actual Firmware? I am relatively new to MAC OS. On the Windows Side, I am used to just flashing the BIOS.
Thanks man, trick worked for Macbook Pro 2019 and yes, machine was totally bricked, no fan, no light, no sound, black screen, and DFU reset, wake it up. Also DFU work for me, when I connected dead machine with the left 2nd (from the screen) thunderbolt port. Reason for the condition: I tried to update to macOS Monterey , and when it stuck i forecefully restarted it. (maybe it was working, but the update bar is not moving much for around 30 minutes)
Great presentation. I'missing something. When I do a revive or a restore it goes into activation mode, possibly because the disk is encrypted, and I don't know the password. What can I do?
Hey Mr. Macintosh! Thank you for this video! Now Apple Appstore says that Apple Configurator needs MacOS 14 or more... I have Monterey on a late 2016 touchbar 15" Macbook Pro... you made this video on an A1706... how can I get this app running on my Mac?
Hi Mr Mac - I tried it and everything went as per video with one exception. I still had the activation screen. My outcome was not at all per your video. Did I miss a step / a key???
Hi Mr Macintosh, thanks for your video. i encountered an error of the ipsw file can’t be read.. when i tried to drag and drop it on the apple configurator 2.. i downloaded the macos 11.5.1 ipsw file.. how do i solve this issue
the exact error message is ""there was a problem reading the UniversalMac_11.5.1_20G80_Restore.ipsw. the operation couldn’t be completed. operation timed out"
Hello Ifeanyi, to restore a MacOS Montery Beta IPSW you need to have the HOST mac on Monterey or you can use big sur with the latest version of Xcode Beta.
Can you do a write up clarifying if you want to migrate from a usb - c MacBook to the new MacBook M1 laptops, what cable do you need and what is the process. I can imagine that there are a lot of people who are trying to migrate using usb c instead of wifi. The online guide on apple's website isn't very clear if the normal usb c charging cable will work, what ports it needs to be plugged into... It would be very helpful.
Hello I have tried to use Apple Configurator 2 to solve activation lock but I did not succeed it. When I put my MacBook Pro m1 silicon into DFU mode, it shows me everything I need to do but when I tried to revive or restore, it said that this Mac cannot be restored or revived. Can you help me please?
Good Evening, Im not sure if you would be able to assist. I go through these steps but on the host mac and error pops up saying ""Cannot use ThunderBolt Accesory - Connect accessory using thunderbolt enable cable" i am using the charging cable that came with the mac the usb c to usb c. Most of the reviews i have read state that a ThunderBolt 3 cable is not supported to restore a macbook
Hello Drew, you might get that message but the restore process will work just fine. I've tested a thunderbolt 3 cable and it works fine. You can switch to the USB-C white charge cable and that will work fine also.
Please help, my mac is like that. I have mac os mont. on a correctly configured usb. And when i plug it into the mac it still only shows the recovery screen. It wont let me boot into recovery mode for some reason.
Hi I have MacBook Pro8.1,have been installing but require iCloud password to install Mac OS on the machine but when i put my correct password words it failed again and again what should I am stacked

Wait, so if you have that restore icon at boot up do you have to use a second Mac? Or can you just use a Big Sur bootable installer?
Yes! You can use a Big Sur Bootable installer.
Apple has basically shot themselves in the foot here.. They should have kept internet recovery..
