- Do you have a Mac that you want to install macOS High Sierra on? Did an operating system update or an update for another program caused the Mac to run incredibly slow? If so, maybe you want to reinstall macOS High Sierra to speed up the computer.
I will show you all the steps to take on your Windows computer in order to format the flash drive, make the flash drive compatible with Mac, and restore the macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 Installer onto your flash drive, so that you can install or reinstall macOS High Sierra on your Mac. I will also show you that the installer flash drive will boot your Mac into the installer.
If you need a reliable flash drive to make the macOS High Sierra 10.13 USB Installer Flash Drive, then I have included a link for a very good and reliable one at Amazon. amzn.to/3Ngi5bK

I don't know how much I can thank you for this tutorial. I searched through the whole night, gave up and went to sleep, and when I woke up, I found your video. My MacBook is back in working condition now. Thank you so much. You deserve a follow
@IT101 I did everything right. So when I clicked on the drive in the options mode…it should have already downloaded high sierra right? Because it just keeps booting me to the old version I have on my MacBook and say the file is some how damage or interrupted. I don’t know what to do.
The part of converting to dish image the name of my file didn’t change also when I wanted to put into transmac I got a message saying this is not a compressed disk image file it is raw how do I fix ?
Thank you for providing these easy to follow steps. I am now able to get to the utilities screen. when trying to reinstall, after I click continue and I accept the terms and conditions it takes a few minutes to prepare and what I believe is downloading the install. at this point it reboots and I am still getting stuck on the Apple logo loading screen. the loading bar gets to about 60% complete however It does not get past this screen so I am unable to get to the installation setup steps. I have tried "first Aid" and even erased the drive. nothing seems to work for me. do you have any suggestions?
Thanks for this tutorial very great explanation I set up the bootable on the USB, and when I put it in the Mac and chose the USB bootable, it starts Internet Recovery It keeps loading and then fails
I've tried countless videos and software but I do have to say this is one of the best videos for a step by step process. My macbook pro is a 2010 model and for some reason doesn't want to boot or install the software. Thank you so much for these videos, I really appreciate the work and time you put into these!! I'm stuck at the apple logo with progress bar but no progress, at first it said that the file was damaged or something and to restart.
I couldn’t get it in recovery mode or any other mode, all I had is a grey file flashing with a question mark on it. After hours of trying everything I couldn’t get it to go to any recovery mode or nothing, but after I followed all your steps and got the bootable drive, all it took was one little plug of this drive and it started booting up. Bought it from a third party so I finally got it to work.
Thanks brother, really helped out since I was having trouble with the screen with the folder with the X and that it could not connect to the recovery servers. Doing this solved my problem. Thanks again.
By far one of the best tutorials I have ever watched. I was tryin for hours to perform the same process without any luck. Come to find out, I was downloading an incorrect file (.dmg) rather than the .iso file that you showed. Followed your process, worked like a charm. It's been a few years since I've created a bootable usb. Thank you so much! Keep making videos!
life saver!!!!thank you...i would like to ask if you have a video installing mac os to a new HDD or SSD?bec my hdd are already corrupted and i cant use cloner bec my pc didnt recognize the mac hdd anymore
Thanks for the tutorial. I followed your method from A-Z twice but unable to boot from the USB3.0 16Gb thumb drive. I used 3 different ones with same result. Then I watched another tutorial and used diskpart to clean, convert to GPT and set primary the thumb drive. Then I restarted your tutorial with this thumb drive and is a success.
After trying over 8 tutorials all over youtube, only your method works for 2011 imac. Thanks a lot
Gratitude is a must. Been struggling for two weeks trying to install back my Mac iOS but never worked until I found your video and within minutes my Mac iOS is back. Thanks 😊 a lot. Nuff love ❤
Never really been much of a commenter but I got to give you the credit that your due, I have spend 4 entire days dedicated to installing an OS and have had no luck at all, I have watched probably 100s of videos trying to create a install usb using a windows computer because I don’t have or know anybody with another Mac I’ve practically been pulling my hair out trying to get this done and I have finally found a way to do it all thanks to you, thank you
Thank, you for this insane tutorial you safed me from buying a new Macbook for a spesific class at university, i will nerver forget your tutorial!
I followed each and every step you listed. Happy to say I now have a bootable El Capitan installer for my old 2008 Mac Pro. Thanks so much my friend. 👍👍
I have spent so many hours over so many days trying to get my early Macbook Pro to work, this is literally the only video on TH-cam, Google or any forum that actually worked. Thank you so much.
Your super great at explaining,one of the easiest follow through on the internet,thanks a lot I really needed this,bless
THANK YOU SO MUCH! For anyone who's still getting a white screen and cursor and giving up hope - it only worked for me when I plugged in the flash drive AFTER power and option. Been driving me nuts for days and it was as simple as that!
THANK YOU SO MUCH. My son received an old iMac from a family member and I spent an entire week trying to figure out how to do this without any luck and you literally saved the day.
