The failing keyboard and touch bar on our MacBook Pro (purchased 12/2018) was replaced under warranty, wiping out our previous disk contents and OS (Monterey). MacBook Pro unrecoverable error during system restoration The rhetorical question is why did the Apple Store staff not realize this problem before sending us home to figure it out ourselves, when they had advised us to restore our user content from a backup? Has anybody experienced the same problems and found a solution? Is this a warranty case and shall i just return it? The machine is unusable at this point. I have an appointment with the Apple Support but judging by the experience of some other users i doubt, that they will know any solution. I did a new setup of the external drive several times, every time leading to this error. Only to realise that this leads to the error message saying, that the "Installation cannot proceed because the installer is damaged". My next step was loading the installer on an external USB drive and install BigSur from there. Turning off the firewall of the router may have led to finishing the download, only ending in the error message "An error has occured loading the update" without further explanation. I can't change the DNS-settings of my router so that solution falls short for me. So thanks to the middle version I have the ethernet connector in the powerbrick - giving me the same error right off the start. Most of the times it gives me the errormessage "PKDownloadError error 8".ĭoing some research, this seems a problem with the internet connection, especially with WiFi. Since then, the iMac can't download the BigSur and every solution I tried have failed me. So the next step was wiping the SSD and then reinstall MacOS (did it with this method ). After reinstalling, the probems persisted. Using the recoverymode by holding the on/off button, I reinstalled BigSur without wiping the SSD. So I thought it would be a good idea to reinstall MacOs in case of this being a software problem. These include random restarts (a purple light flashes and the iMac restarts, the following messages say kernel panic), not possible to open/close programs, impossible to install/delete programs, safari constantly reloading pages etc. My new M1 iMac (16GB Ram, 256GB storage, middle version) has recently started to get many bugs and crashes. M1 iMac clean install not possible Hello Apple Community, Is there anything else that I can do? Please help!! A call into Apple offered no help since they said I've done pretty much everything that they would have suggested. So I decided to bring back everything from a Time Machine backup from over a month ago (when I believed my system was running okay), but it's back to the same constant "The connection to service named was invalidated" message in Console with Activity Monitor Showing CPU usage at over 120% for 'secd', basically right where I started again. With just High Sierra installed, and nothing else, the computer would work fine, no issues at all. Now run out of ideas I thought I'd do a clean install of High Sierra so I wiped my SSD (which I use for the OS and apps) and my HDD (to store everything else) and reinstalled it using a USB backup. Finally tried a PRAM and SMC reset, in addition to a virus scan, which also came back as clean. I also tried to install the Combo version of the High Sierra, but this also either did not help or update the computer. I also used my original start up disk and ran the extended Apple Hardware Test, and after an hour and half, it came back as okay as well. I then booted into Recovery Mode and ran Disk Utility and ran First Aid on all my volumes and everything came back ok. I noticed that the Security Update 2019-002 10.13.6 was available so I tried to do the update thinking that this might help, and although it would go through the motions of downloading and restarting, the Mac was still in 10.13.4 with the update still in the 'Updates Available' area of the app store. In Console I kept getting the continual message "The connection to service named was invalidated". I checked in Activity Monitor and 'secd' and 'lsd' both took up over 120% of the CPU. Going into Safe mode however and the Mac seemed to be fine. The problem got quickly worse so that every time it would come back up, it would crash after a few minutes. I noticed the problem about a month ago when I would be in normal mode and the computer would crash after attempting to do two things at once, like have the internet open, then open a random app.the pizza wheel would spin and I'd have to press the power button to bring it back up. I have a MacPro Mid 2010 5,1 running 10.13.4, Boot ROM version 00.
