As an IT Professional and having tried hundreds if not thousands of online KZbin tutorials, I must say this is by far the best presentation, not only did this solution work but the way you presented it and clearly explained each step without fluff and confusion of many others you deserve to be ranked much higher in the KZbin algorithm, thanks!

My frustration was immense prior to coming across this video, and you flawlessly guided me through the step-by-step troubleshooting process. THANK YOU!

I almost gave up out of frustration watching several videos for almost 3 hours and this is the only method that worked!!! It will take a little computer know-how using the log and terminal but he instructions were clear and you can pause the video at any point to make sure you’re doing the right thing. Before you do the nvram mehod make sure you’re connected to the internet and that the dae an time of your Mac is correct. You’re a lifesaver, Mr. Macintosh!!! Thank you so muchh!!! ❤😊

Dude - you are a GENIUS!! My 2011 iMac was failing miserably with reinstall OS after erasing the hard drive. I was freaking out, I have a buyer waiting for this because he needs specifically Garage Band on High Sierra to work with his recording equipment. I tried every other “fix” I could find on the internet, nothing worked. Called Apple Support which was a COMPLETE waste of time. 🙄 Then came you. And even tho the installer error I was having was different from yours, I had nothing to lose so I copied your URL and followed your instructions. I was very excited when I got farther than before (agreed to terms, etc) which I couldn’t have done without you…..but was sadly unable to finish the install. I think I may have performed some fatal error when erasing the hard drive, as I got this error: “Could not create a reboot volume for APFS install.” No idea what that means. Almost got there! 😢

I won an old iMac at auction and did a wipe of it because I didn't have the passwords and wanted it to have a completely fresh start, only then to realize that the OS wasn't going to be easy to reinstall... After worrying that I now had a giant paperweight, I finally came upon this video which saved it and made it useful once again! Thank you so much for posting this video!

I bought a refurbished 2011 iMac and need to return it for other reasons, but I had already downloaded my information on it. I thought that I had messed it up beyond repair. Thank you for this video and for the clear instructions. High Sierra is being installed right now.

I was getting so frustrated doing Fix #3 when I should have read what you said and did Fix #1. I really appreciate this. You saved me from having to buy a new system because Apple couldn't help. Again. thank you.

Mr. Machintos, sir you are genius. Im over reactive but its worth it for this issue. That you have mange to fixed. It has helped me mentally. I bought new ssd and ram after changing them. I could not mange to have High Sierra and started regrating that I spent money. Same error over and over. I tried every possible way. Watched panty of videos none was able to help me but you. Now at this moment its exact 48 hours that I have been trying to fix and now I finally did with your help, through this video. So thank you very much for doing this. I will share this video to those who need help. I agree with some other guy who wrote. Apple company should pay you. Again, thank you sir.

Unbelievable, I run into this often at work, and the answer is wipe the drive and start over...... absolutely incredible it's the URL. I was so skeptical. Hats off sir, you should get a Kofi so people who find this so many years up and down the road can buy you a cup of coffee.

Important note!…. If your like me trying to update from High Sierra to Mojave inside of Mac OS, and getting the same error for Mojave. Do all the same steps, but add “Sudo” on the terminal line before typing “nvram IASUc….” So it will look like this “sudo nvram IASUCatalogURL=…..”
