macOS Recovery

hi everyone

My new MacAir is recovering for last few hours. What I can do with it.

By mistake I forced turned computer off by holding Start/Stop button and it went to recovery mode.

I can only click to wi-fi and language options, rest of the screen is locked.

Please help me

MacBook Air 13″, 11.1

Hi Zaur_A,


If your Mac is still in the state shown in the screenshot, try these steps:


  1. Press and hold the power button until your Mac powers off.
  2. Press and release the power button to start up your Mac normally.
  3. If it boots to Recovery Mode again instead of macOS, please let me know.
