Installing Mac OS sierra from recovery mode on 2027 MacBook Air
forgot my password on my old MacBook Air so I decided to wipe the computer which also meant I have to redownload sierra os onto my MacBook and I’ve ran into a few problems.
first problem saying bag empty- seemed to rectify this by changing date.
next issue is once it gets to the end of the timer for the download it then says ‘an error occurred while preparing the installation. Try running this application again’ it doesn’t say storage issue but the disk I’m using says 120.99GB total and it says 120.77 GB available, I don’t know how to free up that tiny bit of storage I need as I’m only in recovery mode and erasing things off the discs has done nothing
please help in the simplest terms as I’m not technical at all!
