My Macbook Pro Wont start up as expected!
Today I tried to reset my macbook to factory settings because the hard drive was nearly full. I reset it by going into disk utility and erasing the hard drive. After that it rebooted back to disk utility, so i clicked on reinstall OS X. When I did that I got a message saying "To download and restore OS X, your computer's eligibility will be verified with Apple." I pressed continue and a little swirly loading icon showed up. Then after about 2 seconds a message came up saying that "An Error occurred while preparing the installation. Try running this application again. I tried many times and it of course didnt work. Ive tried verifying/repairing my disks and that didnt work (note: something peculiar i noticed was that the verify permssions options were unavailable). I took to the web and looked at every post i could find relating to my problem and none of the fixes have worked. It'd be great if anyone could help, i need this computer for class in a couple days when I start. Also i was using Yosemite before the restart if that helps.
