Sep 11, 2015 8:54 PM in response to tmckee95by Niel,Click here and follow the instructions. If the computer originally shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, when you reach step 5, insert its original disk, restart with the C or Option key held down, use the Disk Utility to erase the internal drive, and install a fresh OS.

Sep 11, 2015 9:20 PM in response to ilovelylizby Niel,Connect an external hard drive. If desired, create a disk image on it instead of erasing any existing data; if you're able to successfully copy over your data, you can then erase the internal drive and restore it. Note that if you restore to a disk image, you won't be able to use the Migration Assistant to restore it.

Sep 12, 2015 3:01 AM in response to ilovelylizby lllaass,Folder with a question mark
If you see a folder with a question mark appear instead of the Apple logo, it means your Mac couldn't find a local or network-based startup disk. This can happen if the disk selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences isn't available. Wait a few seconds to see if your Mac is able to locate the startup disk you specified.
If you still see a question mark after waiting a few moments, use Startup Manager to start up your Mac, then re-select your startup disk from System Preferences.
If a question mark appears after you install a software update, re-select your startup disk using OS X Recovery.
