Fix Broken Bricked Mac with Restore Revive

This video will show you to fix a bricked or broken Mac with a revive or restore from Apple Configurator. Guys if you are like me and you have bricked your new Mac M1 or other MacBook's then you can try to do a restore or revive process to get it working again. You might be getting the black screen with exclamation mark and the restore URL on it. This video will show you how to fix it.

Worked great, the cables being in those exact spots are what was the most important. Nicely done.

Thank you sir, you saved my mac. After searching the whole internet for hours, this is the only thing that worked.

SAVED MY LIFE. I was unwise and hadn’t backed up my Mac! The revive option worked for me and all my data was saved 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Thank you, i had an macbook air (intel) and it broke after i tried to restore. i did what you said, though i hooked my air up to an imac and it worked perfectly. Restore option. You are a legend!

It is currently erasing everything on my MacBook Air. I tried everything to restore it but the damn exclamation mark wouldn’t go away. I am glad I came across your video, super easy instructions, thanks a mill!!

No luck. My 2012 Mac Mini never restarted during a Catalina security update. Now it won't power up at all. I tried this reset and the SMC reset from the other video. Nothing happens. No chimes, no light, no signal to the monitor. Nothing. The drives are okay... I've been able to remove then and mount them to another machine externally and the data is intact. It seems like a firmware issue. Is there a way to reset the firmware while connecting it to another machine, like the recent instructions that are out for the T2 chip or silicon macs?

Thank you, i thought my macbook is done for, but your tutorial really helped me 😅

This has happened only 2 times to me. Both were from trying to get into startup options, rebooting (even back into boot picker) worked for me. This probably isn't the same for most people, but if anyone's getting it from a similar way, just try force shutting down and restarting.

[ayse]

both the restore and revive options get stuck at step 2 for me. the loading part never loads and i’ve waited for 5-10 mins, still no progress. have any ideas about this issue?

Hey I have connected it with my second MacBook but I am getting issue I don’t find window in working mac to confirm that it’s connected or not can u help me?

[sufiyawnn]

Alright this doesn’t seem to be my problem but i have a similar one. I bricked my M1 pro after i upgraded to Sonoma. Now every time i open the Lid of my Macbook nothing appears, not even the apple logo, it takes a while and then there’s a really dim logo of Apple that appears then disappears but it doesn’t turns on. Any help’d be appreciated.

[VaderCnone]

Great tutorial mate! Do note you need an original cable from apple (at least for me it was the case)

[alexandrumeta]

Thank you. It happened to me and I spent 10 hours trying to reinstall MacOS on my MBP and I finally found this...I thought I managed to "kill" my SSD or something but it should be fine. I'm taking it to the Apple Store so they can do this for me since I don't have another Mac and my flatmates who got one are not coming back anytime soon. But I am GLAD I wasn't that only one who experinced this problem
