thanks for replying, PRP_53 (i was the driver - and now caregiver for an early morning surgery).


i have the intel imac, and os ventura, 13.7.4 - wasn't aware that the application info i supplied wasn't as definite as it seemed.


this is my second request for assistance, my 2/16 went unnoticed. last night i searched online to see how i could do the uninstall - reinstall, but the "command + R" after activating 'restart' would not work (for me); the computer continued with the restart.


any advice or technique(s) would be most appreciated!


thanks in advance

mike

Shutdown the computer completely.


Pause for may 10 seconds and then start the machine holding down the two keyboard commands.


If using a Bluetooth Keyboard with Rechargeable Battery - Cable the Keyboard to computer for this unique purpose.


The keyboard should act as if it was a Wired Keyboard

the good news is that i now know how to get into recovery mode.


but i still got the error notice when the wall paper finally activated took 4 minutes, 3seconds - i timed it).


i tried twice and it hasn't corrected the issue.


is there anything else you could recommend, keeping in mind my level of experience: 3.1 on a scale of 10.
