Hey
I'm having some troubles with erasing my intern harddrive on my MacBook Air 13" early 2015. Hvem I have selected "Erase" and filled in the spaces it says "It didn't succeeded in erasing. Press OK to continue" and then nothing happens...
MacBook Air
Are you booted into the recovery partition at that point (did you press Command & R while booting up)?
I started doing that and then clicked into this page https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201314 and followed the steps there
If the operating system is install on it, the disk drive can not be erase until you boot from someplace else.
Depending on the age of the Mac you either boot from the install DVD to erase the disk drive or boot from Internet Recovery and start up Disk Utility when the Mac starts.
So you are saying that you were booted into recovery when trying to erase your drive?
You should see a screen like this if you have successfully booted into recovery:
You then choose Disk Utility to erase the drive.
I did, but when I came to the part where I could erase the startup disk I couldn't click directly on erase for my Macintosh HD, so I tried for the "APPLE SSD SMO128G Media", but that's when it says I couldn't successfully erase the harddrive
Okay, first I logged out of everything (Itunes, iMessage etc.), then I turned off the computer at started up while pressing command+R. Then that box came up and I first pressed "reinstall Mac OS" and followed that, and then I got the idea that I was meant to go under disk utility from there, but should I turn off the computer and startup with command+R, and press disk utility there?
How do I do that? I want to erase my computer, so I can sell it
I'm sorry, but I'm not sure what you mean by the last thing. My computer is an early 2015
