Restore macOS Firmware on an Apple Silicon Mac + Boot to DFU Mode
Main Article
mrmacintosh.co...
I will go over how to restore macOS on your new Apple Silicon Mac. Your first line of defense for installing macOS on Apple Silicon should be macOS Recovery. But if for some reason you are having problems with that you can boot your Apple Silicon Mac with a Big Sur USB installer drive. I wrote an article covering all the changes to macOS Recovery here.
mrmacintosh.com/how-to-reinstall-macos-on-your-apple-silicon-mac-everything-you-need-to-know/
Order of that you should follow for reinstalling macOS on Apple Silicon.
1. macOS Recovery
2. System Recovery - (Will boot automatically if macOS Recovery is unavailable)
3. macOS Big Sur USB Installer Drive - (External boot for macOS Installers is enabled by default on Apple Silicon)
4. Apple Configurator 2 REVIVE option - This option will reinstall macOS Recovery (retains user data on the SSD hard drive)
5. Apple Configurator 2 RESTORE option - This option will Reinstall macOS Recovery, ERASE your SSD hard drive and reinstall macOS
Apple has just posted a new articles on macOS recovery, booting to DFU mode and how to restore macOS Firmware.

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 :)

@kosonamam4397 8 месяцев назад

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?

@ramshadurrani7921 3 года назад

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❤️

@Mr.Macintosh 3 года назад

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 👍

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!

@geoffreyguttmann584 2 года назад

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".

@Mr.Macintosh 2 года назад

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! 👍

@JettingChen 3 года назад

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.

@Mr.Macintosh 3 года назад

Glad it was helpful Jetting!! Apple is super secret even about their support & problems. This is where I come in to help :)

@InspoAlley 3 года назад

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.

@Mr.Macintosh 3 года назад

@markmccormick924 3 года назад

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.

@Mr.Macintosh 3 года назад

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!!

@doer6002 Год назад

have you fixed it? yes it will sometime not work, but when you try it few times, it will work

@TheMaxwilder 3 года назад

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!

@Mr.Macintosh 3 года назад

Awesome Dakota! I'm glad you are back up and running again.

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)

@Justinallenmarsh 3 года назад

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.

@edisonsmejoff 6 месяцев назад

Your video it's just great. Really helpful. However in my Macbook Air m1 2020 it happens something I didn't see at your or any video. During initial 10 seconds to try to reach DFU mode on the Mac running Apple Configurator 2, at exactly 8 seconds (all the times I tried), it appear in a flash DFU mode and immediately appear "Connect Devices" message, and the screen becames black on problematic Mac. Eventhough, I keep counting and after 10 seconds only pressed Power button (for more 8, or 10 seconds) and nothign happens. Any other "magic" idea you may have for my case?

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.

I keep getting "step 2 of 4 down loading documents" after I tried the down load method of the IPSW, I think it only downloaded the link, it's nowhere near the speed of yours. I am between a MacBook Pro 2012 to M1 air. The problem started when I tried to migrate the two. The new computer asked for password but would not take the one I set. So I restarted M1 and ended up here. If I cannot reboot the system how do I get the password off the new computer T2?
