For more info, my MacBook Pro won't start up. It tries, gets halfway through the progress bar, then locks up. I've tried all the "hold these keys while starting" solutions to no avail. I wanted to try starting it from a bootable drive, thinking that a reload of the OS might fix it. My Mac mini is running Big Sur, and the App Store won't let me download High Sierra to make my bootable drive for the laptop. How can I get around this?
Did you try booting your MacBook Pro into Internet Recovery Mode?
You can't download a version of macOS earlier than what your Mac shipped with. So if your mini came installed with Mojave or later, you can't download High Sierra.
Yes, after downloading for hours it tried to start itself and locked up in the same place.
It's possible it needs service. How old is it?
