Unable to reinstall Mac OS Lion or any other Mac OS
I have an old iMac which I had to erase the hard drive. Now that I am trying to either reinstall Lion OS or any other OS is not letting me.
When booting up the iMac with the following key combinations I always end up with the same "Mac OS X Utilities" screen.
Cmd Option R
Cmd R
Option
Option (this shows the installation drives for Mavericks but when I select it it sends me to the Mac OS X Utilities instead of installing Mavericks
The "Mac OS X Utilities" screen as seen on the screenshot included, only shows "Reinstall Mac OS X" Lion. The problem with this is that no matter how many times I try, I get the following message
This item is temporarily unavailable. Try again later.
I've seen other posts talking about Internet Recovery using Cmd Opt R (which never works)
Resetting the NVRAM booting up with Cmd Opt P R (still it doesn't work)
Using ethernet instead of WiFi (also doesn't work)
It seems nothing I've read online can fix this issue. Anyone from Apple has a real solution for this problem that doesn't require me shipping the iMac anywhere since all Apple Stores around me are closed because of Covid?
