I was hoping I could make a bootable USB and get the Lion or El Capitan or High Sierra install files on there and load from that but I've had no success.
This is the only Mac I have, my other computers are Windows 10 machines. which gets me to exactly the same point as above, with the same out: "can't download the additional components". I've tried several times, on different Wifis just in case.Īt some point I found out about the Cmd-R or Cmd-Alt-R shortcut when booting, which seemed to start "Internet Recovery" or something. "Can't download the additional components needed to install Max OS X." a few seemingly random numbers underneath appear: "About -2,147,323,123 hours and 11 minutes remaining" and then after maybe 30 seconds, this message: The progress bar appears, almost fully blue immediately. Do the Continues and Yeses and Agrees, choose my Macintosh HD as the install location (120.47 GB total, 120.25 GB available).
DOWNLOAD MAC OS FOR MACBOOK AIR 2010 MAC OS X
The current situation is this: I have wiped my Macbook Air 2011, and get to the Mac OS X Utilities page after booting, with four options:Īs I want a fresh install, I go to Resintall Mac OS X. I moved all my old files off it and wanted to wipe it to start again with the highest OS X that it will take (which I'm sure isn't Catalina 10.15, but I think somewhere online said High Sierra 10.13 was the highest this age of Macbook Air could take)Īnyway.
It hasn't been used for years but I wanted to try to resurrect it. I have an old Macbook Air from 2011 which is running Max OS X Lion 10.7.
