MacBookOS/Startup/ I need help please…. I have a 2010 MacBook Pro—been using that until just recently when I tried to install windows 11 on it using Bootcamp. I started the process in MacOS and at a stage in the installation process,the bootcamp took me into windows specifically where I was suppose select the version of windows I.e windows 10 Home or Education those stuffs. Just after I did,it said I couldn’t install windows 11 on the Mac. I thought it would have gone back into Mac OS. Honestly since then I haven’t been able to boot back into MacOS. Funny enough when I press the power button what appears on the screen is “No bootable Device—insert boot disk and press any key”. I have changed the HDD with the view that I could do internet Recovery but even with the internet recovery it loads and what appears in the screen is a circle with a line crossed in. Command R also isn’t working Please help me.

What is the year/model of your Mac (do not post the serial number)?

What is the current macOS version?
