Hello all…hoping someone has run into the same issues, I have used Apple Configurator before successfully with a Mac mini 2018. I have followed the instruction on how to do it with the MacBook Air and actually completed successfully the second time I ran it"Restore", but still the MacBook Air did not came back to life. Since then every time I run it I get the same error messages and then the fans turn on at high speed for about 1 minute and then stops, then Apple Configurator 2 shows “Recovery” on the screen. It doesn’t matter now what I do ( switched computers, cables, etc} I get the same results, so I know the MacBook Air it is not completely dead because of the fans and following the steps it goes into DFU mode. Can be placed into DFU modeI have run both “Revive” and “Restore”….Restored worked only once but MacBook Air did not came back to lifeI get the error message, once I click stop, it switches into recovery modeOnly way to stop recovery mode is to hold down the power button for about 5 seconds, I am assuming it is doing some sort of shutdown,I can bring it back into DFU mode again following the proper steps, and the same thing happens over and over. Any help would be great…thanks
@imac6comma1 - Lets backup here, why did you need to run the Configurator tool? Lets get the basics worked out first. Did you try internet recovery or even run the onboard diagnostics? Reference: Mac startup key combinations
