Looking for a great laptop but don't want to spend a fortune on it? Need a deal on one of the most popular laptops in history? Look no further than this APPLE MACBOOK AIR 9,1 A2179 13" RETINA 2020 GOLD DUAL-CORE LAPTOP (NO OS - READ)!!!
This is a used APPLE MACBOOK AIR 9,1 A2179 13" RETINA 2020 GOLD DUAL-CORE LAPTOP (NO OS - READ) and this one is a real find!!! In great physical shape!!! Just some minor cosmetic wear on this beauty!!! Laptop has been tested and the hardware all looks to be working perfectly but we've run into a problem that doesn't allow us to install an OS to the device. We purchased this laptop from a walk-in customer at our pawn shop and it appeared to be full reset upon receipt and had a fresh install of macOS Big Sur running. We were able to setup a user account and gather all of the specs, everything seemed fine until we attempted to install macOS Monterey from an external drive. We received a security prompt stating that we couldn't boot from our external disk until we've changed security parameters in the Recovery Partition (T2 security chip settings). We booted into the recovery mode, selected Disk Utility and formatted the internal disk as were about to install a fresh copy of Monterey but when we tried to adjust the security settings, we were met with an error that stated there were no Administrator accounts present so it would not allows us to change security setting (we should have changed that setting BEFORE formatting as we had the local login credentials before wiping the disk). This typically wouldn't be a problem as we just re-booted the machine and being that there was no OS present it went straight to Internet Recovery but after that process was finished, we found that the machine was still tied to the previous owner's iCloud account and we could not proceed with an OS install without their iCloud password, which we don't have. Again, this typically wouldn't be too big of an issue as you usually have the option to use the "device password" to install the OS and wipe out the previous owner's iCloud account but because we had already wiped the drive, the "device password" does not work. We've tried everything to bypass internet recovery and at least get the machine into Target Disk mode to install from another Mac but all start-up commands are ignored and the machine just continually boots into an Internet Recovery loop. We contacted Apple Support and they confirmed that there is no way to install the OS without the original owner's iCloud password at this point. Although if someone out there has a better handle on this problem than we do, this could be an excellent opportunity for a great deal on their part!!! This amazing computer comes equipped with the powerful Intel i3-1000NG4 10th generation dual core processor and a whopping 8GB of RAM to give you the speed you need!!! Whether a professional, gamer or anyone that just wants to browse the web, this laptop has got you covered!!! The 13.3" Retina Display LED screen is perfect for creative work and sports a native resolution of 2560x1600 pixels!!! This beauty in a Rose Gold finish also features a blazing fast 256GB PCIe-based flash storage, Bluetooth 5.0 as well as Wi-Fi adapter to get you online in a flash!!! Wanna plug into your TV or monitor? The two innovative Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C connections) ports let you transmit video or operate all of your USB-C/Thunderbolt enabled devices with lightning fast speeds!!! The built-in FaceTime HD camera makes using Apple's amazing video chatting platform or Skyping a breeze!!! This one does it all!!! Made by Apple, by far the most popular name in quality electronics on the planet!!! You won't be disappointed with this one!!! PLEASE NOTE: This laptop is being sold as a "for parts" item because it currently has no OS installed and we can't seem to find a way to install one. The buyer should understand that this laptop is going to most likely only going to be useable for spare parts unless someone with a greater understanding of Apple software than we have will be able to find a way to bypass the Internet Recovery boot loop that it is currently in.
