If you have problems running your computer or have been attacked by a virus, you may want to know HOW TO RESET your MacBook Air<\/a> factory, which is a good way to do it.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/p>\n

Restoring factory settings can often make our computers as good as brand new; everything has a brand-new look, so you can choose to restore factory settings at special times to ensure that your sense of use can be upgraded.<\/p>\n

If you want to achieve your MacBook Air factory reset<\/strong>, then you can refer to the following steps:<\/p>\n

1.Ensure that your data has been backed up; you can use Time Machine to back up and synchronize your data.<\/p>\n

2.Quit your Apple service; you can choose iCloud in the settings to choose to quit; you can also choose iTunes and App Store to achieve the account to quit the cancellation of authorization and choose iMessage in the settings to choose to quit.<\/p>\n

3.Prepare to restart your computer; at the moment of restart, press Win+R until the Apple logo appears, or turn off your Mac and hold down the power button until it appears to be loading; select \u2018Options\u2019 and \u2018Continue.\u2019.<\/p>\n

4.Select Erase Disk, OK page in the recovery interface, select \u2018Disk Utility,\u2019 and click Continue; select your primary drive, generally the default here is Macintosh HD, click Erase Data, select APFS or Mac OS Extended, and click Erase.<\/p>\n

5.Return to the recovery menu, reinstall macOS again, and click Continue. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the system step by step; you will get a brand new Mac computer after it is finished.<\/p>\n

6.In Settings, you can follow Time Machine to recover your computer data.<\/p>\n

How do I factory reset my MacBook Air without an Apple ID?<\/h3>\n

If you no longer remember your Apple ID but need to restore factory settings, it seems to be a bit troublesome, but you can try the following methods:<\/p>\n

1. First of all, you need to make sure that you have enabled the activation lock on your computer; otherwise, it will be very difficult for you to bypass the password verification on Apple computers, so if you don’t have the activation lock on, then just see the steps above to try the factory settings.<\/p>\n

2. In My Settings, you can open iCloud to check the status of the activation lock.<\/p>\n

3. Assuming you have forgotten your password but you are the owner of the laptop you purchased, you can contact Apple after sales using your proof of purchase, and they will help you to re-verify the laptop.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
