Installation Instructions
Always back up your devive before installing beta software. You can back up your Mac using iCloud, Time Machine, or another storage device.
Prerequisites
- Second Mac: Another Mac of any model using macOS Sonoma 14 or later.
- USB-C Cable: A high-quality USB-C cable to connect the two Macs.
Steps to Restore (and Update)
- Install Apple Configurator on the Second Mac
- Download and install Apple Configurator from the Mac App Store on the second Mac if it’s not already installed.
- Put the Target MacBook into DFU Mode:
- Shut down MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020) you want to restore.
- Connect it to the second Mac using the USB-C cable.
- Enter DFU (Device Firmware Update) mode.
- In Apple Configurator on the second Mac, your MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020) should appear as a device in DFU mode.
- Apply the IPSW File:
- Open Apple Configurator on the second Mac.
- Select your MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020) in DFU mode from the device list.
- Drag UniversalMac_13.5_22G74_Restore.ipsw file onto the device icon in Apple Configurator, or use the menu: Actions > Restore.
- Confirm the action when prompted. This will erase the MacBook and install macOS 13.5 RC.
- Wait for the Process to Complete:
- The restore process will take some time (15-30 minutes or more, depending on the file size and connection speed).
- The MacBook’s screen may show a progress bar or Apple logo during the restore.
- Once complete, your MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020) will restart automatically.
- Set Up the MacBook:
- After the restore, your MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020) will boot into the setup assistant.
- You can set it up as new or restore your data from a backup.
Note: Using an IPSW file with Apple Configurator always performs a full restore, erasing all data. There is no option to "update" macOS (preserving data) using an IPSW file directly.
