I watched many many videos on how to do this but it was only up until I came across yours that I went through with it. The way you’re sooo calm, relaxed and reassuring about everything gave me confidence to go ahead with it and I completed the process with ease. YOU’RE AWESOME MAN👏🏾🙂 thanks a million.

Awesome video. I didn’t go through the whole process you listed as I just wanted to carry out a factory restore in order to sell my MacBook Air. It all sounded very daunting when reading “How to” online, but watching your video put me at ease.

Thank you for this very helpful video! I have been procrastinating for weeks about doing a 'clean' install but I know I need it! Your vid is great as I've realised there are some things I need to have on hand that I may not have otherwise had! Good job. :)

This has to be one off the best and neat video I have see on YouTube thanks you

[pandanamin]

Thank you!!! I've been trying to get to recovery mode for hours with my younger brother on the phone...and it all it took was to find out "hold the keys until the screen pops-up"!!!??? everywhere on the web it said to "let go of the keys when you see the apple logo"

sigh....you have no idea how frustrating. thank you subscribed and love the visual and voice.

[grantblanchard]

Agree with other comments. I had drawn a blank on how to do this until I found your YouTube. Thank you very much.
