My MacBook Pro is stuck in internet recovery!

My MacBook Pro is stuck in internet recovery! Everybody tells me to click the apple icon and restart but there is no apple icon. There is a globe which wants me to choose its network. I have tried this process 2 times on a hotspot and once on WiFi. It always shows a globe with an exclamation mark! How to get out of this???

Here are a few things you can try:


...


  • Make sure that your Mac can connect to the internet. If you're not asked to choose a Wi-Fi network during startup, choose a network from the Wi-Fi menu , if available.
  • Press Command-R at startup to try using the built-in Recovery system instead of internet Recovery.
  • Connect to the internet using Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi, or vice versa.
  • Connect to the internet from a different Wi-Fi or Ethernet network. Your network configuration might not allow the internet access that macOS Recovery needs.
  • Try again later, because the issue might be temporary.
  • Start up from another disk or volume, if available, or use a bootable installer to reinstall macOS.

If you see a black screen or some other screen during startup, learn what to do if your Mac doesn't start up all the way.

If you still need help, contact Apple Support.
