This fixed the intial error and I was able to proceed to the next couple of steps. However when trying to sign in with my Apple ID I get the error “Forbidden 403” is it not possible to reinstall the OS X El Capitan?
Hi I have an error code right before the installing is complete and says it could not be completed. I checked my utilities and the time stamp and dates are correct. How can I finish installing this?
OMG... I was gifted a 2010 Mac mini to work on as project and your video has helped me get off to a great start as I need to wipe it and start from scratch 🤟
I need a part two Once I get past that screen it prompts me to enter Apple ID but it then says App Store is temporarily unavailable Any help would be appreciated
Thanks, I just set my date and time using this video, and then the thing is when I enter my Apple ID it does not go through, it popping the error saying "this apple id has not yet been used with app Store"when I click review it just goes back to the page where I choose where to install my operating system, please help me out with this
I was trying this with my 2008 MacBook, but it didn't work. I was trying to reinstall mac os 10.8 mountain lion, so there could be something that was different which caused it to not work.
Hi, thanks for the nfo, it was the first time i could go so far in the re installation of El Capitan, after a complete installation it reboot and say that it can not continue because of components missing ?!?! I have a complete installation of El capitan in an external hard disk from my old imac 2008, the mac mini 2009 can start from this and works but i would like to have it on the main HD wh is completely erased where i try to install el capitan and now block at the end, do you have a solution ?
Life saver I couldn’t for the love of god reinstall the maoc and I tried from utilities and from a back up disk and nothing To believe that something like the date stops everything CRAZY ! Thank you so much
Thank you soo much! Very big help. I have an old MacBook Air Model which I last used back in 2019 and I remember mucking around with it and deleted everything/restored everything and I was stuck with this exact issue. I’ve left my MacBook collecting dust until I randomly thought of it and stumbled across this video which FIXED THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE I HAD!
This worked, but now I get to the actual install part, and it's saying it's temporarily unavailable. The os x I'm trying to install is os x mavericks, this is a mid 2012 macbook pro A1278, and it's a macbook my aunt gave to me to fix from her work. Any suggestions?
@@asarah181 unfortunately, I felt like I tried everything and eventually gave up on this. I ended up looking for macs at local repair shops and computer stores and found a great MacBook.
I need help with install saying that i have a missing required download os x el capitan install i did the time thing like this video said but i'm stuck still
Thank you very much brother. So far so good. It’s reinstalling as we speak. So hopefully it works. I have gotten further than before so it’s looking good. Thanks again. Blessings 🙏🏾👊🏾
Thanks for the video. What really worked for me was resetting the NVRAM. At first I didn’t try and even had Apple support with me for hours. Now it’s working fine 😉
Hi would U mind help me I tried this on my Mac Pro it's downloaded but the problem I can't download and sign in my email or play TH-cam I don't used my Mac pro now
Same I experienced that error and was able to solve it. You can’t simply just type the date when the macOS was released. The main issue here is the codesigning in which it has expiration over certain period of time. Best remedy if you forgot when did you create the bootable installer and if you have another device is to re-install the installer app to the applications folder. Get the app info by right clicking the icon and use that date WHEN IT WAS CREATED Trust me, it works like a charm
Hey I did everything you told me to but it worked but after it won't show me any disks to install the Mac OS X. So does anyone have a solution for this I've been trying to work on my MacBook pro for about 2 hours now.
Let's see if it works for me. My issue is, I'm getting this error message at the very end of the reinstall process, when there's just 3 seconds left to finish. EDIT - unfortunately for me the date is already correct, so dunno what to do now.
Thank you for this video! But now I’m stumped with having to verify my Apple ID. My ex set all this up so I have no access to this. Is there any way to bypass?
Hi can someone help, imac 2007 erased drive from Disc Utility in Recovery mode, tried reinstalling OSX El Capitan, not getting any error message, seems to download fine.
