Hello everyone, I have a macmini m1 that doesn't start, the orange Led flashes, I tried to enter dfu and reset it with another Mac but it freezes during the installation of the os. For the Apple centre near my house it should be thrown away, but they haven't even looked at it, does anyone have any advice or knows if changing any component can be saved?
thanks
In fact, what I did was follow Google's advice, put the Mac in DFU connected to the USBC port indicated to another Mac and with Apple software try a restore.
Step 1, system download completed
Step 2 sending the system to the machine completed
Step 3 sending the system to the machine completed
Step 4 system installation error in the attached photo and impossible to continue
I tried to be the manager by connecting the Mac mini to two but different and with various USBC cables but the result does not change
That normally means it is trying to do a firmware update,when you get these issues (blinking colored light that you don’t understand for example) Google it and see what you find. If the issue doesn’t fix itself in the next 2 days,, make an appointment at your local Apple Authorized Service Provider.
Well we are end users like yourself so if you want to discuss with an Apple Tech I’d suggest calling AppleCare. As we have zero idea where you are located we cannot provide the correct number. I don’t get that you are in the US but if you are it’s 800-275-2273.
Take the M1 Mac mini to a different Apple Authorize Service Provider.
To find another location, go to > Find Locations
My hope is that some technician can check if there are damaged components of the board and try to change them with little expense
MacMini M1 don’t boot, blinking orange
