Also which Mac?


Apple discontinued "true" MacBooks in 2019. The current Mac laptops are, in increasing order tof cost and capability:


  • MacBook Neo
  • Macbook Air
  • Macbook Pro


As we, your fellow end users, can neither see nor remotely access your computer, we cannot work without equipment details only you can provide. To help us better help you, please tell us:


— the model (one of the three above)

— the sub-model, from "About this Mac.."

— the macOS version you are trying to set up, also from "About this Mac..."


Also, did you buy this new or used/refurbished?


If the computer will not start, the model and sub-model info may be on a sticker on the box it came in.
