If it is a model that came with Mac OS 10.6 (aka Snow Leopard), but was later upgrade to Mountain Lion (aka 10.8.x), then you will need an AppleID that was associated with a purchase of Mountain Lion to be able to re-install Mountain Lion as I understand it. The reason that I ask is that it may impact what your options are.
Which model of the MacBook Pro is it? If you do not know, then you can use this page to find a way to identify it: Thank you all in advance for taking the time to read this. Any help or ideas would be very much appreciated. My friend is really mad at me because her macbook is pretty much useless right now.

See the Apple website How to create a bootable installer for macOS.īoot to Big Sur Internet Recovery. Use your Mac or another Mac to create the USB flash drive Big Sur installer. Is this disk erased enough to creat new volume and proceed with the installation?īelow are the steps to install Big Sur from a flash drive when the Startup Security Utility disallows booting from external media. I don't know if there are any options left than sending it to Apple repair :( Doing Shift-Option-Command-R fails with some error like 1008f or 2008f at the globe stage beginning the process. Installing Catalina from USB fails at the beginning with error 1008f. Installing Bur Sur from USB fails (I think the same way as when installing from internet but fails). I also read many pages describing similar problems but didn't found any real solutions.

Then I followed the reinstallation procedure: I followed the steps from the Apple docs: Buying used mac mini 2018 I decided to do a clean system install to be sure that it is clean.
