Having trouble installing macOS High Sierra on Macbook Pro 2017 Hello, I've decided to reboot and restart my MacBook into recovery mode so that's back to factory settings . I want to reinstall a new copy macOS High Sierra but it keeps saying "the recovery server could not be contacted". I've tried rebooting the mac multiple times, changing the date in terminal, connecting to a wifi network but nothing seems to be working. Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated. -Michael

Reinstalling macOS on 2018 MBA Hi, I have an old MBA from 2018 with the Intel Core i5 (I'll attach an image below)One of my friends gave it to me and he had chromeOS Flex installed on it. I restarted the device while pressing CMD&R so I could reinstall macOS but it keeps saying it cannot connect to recovery server. I have reset the date and my Wi-Fi has no issues. With no success, I have no options but to ask you guys for support. (PS) If I need another computer for the process, the only other device I have is a 2020 M1 MBA.
