Came back home, tried after the time passed, no result.Ĩ. I was not believing him at all at that point!ħ. He told if it did not work after 60 mins, then it could not be fixed anywhere. The fact that it is still showing locked from my iPhone, I was not convinced. And he was hoping i could now login, that didn't happen. came back after some 20mins and told me that the firmware password was unlocked.ĥ. The guy told he is going to unlock firmware lock from backend apple servers.Ĥ. explained him that i could not unlock using my known pin from icloud, he said that "should have worked".ģ.
Showed up at the store nov 7 eve, Had with me my purchase record (lucky, had my email)and photo id for verification. Fixed an appointment with apple genius bar - Nov 6 nightĢ. Option+command+P+R" -> pin window gone to ashes, straight to user account login screen.ġ. "option+command+R" -> because of this i was able to get back my "4 digit pin unlock text box". Nothing worked and finally i saw this message " Wrong password" and no text box to enter pin at all after 1 hr waiting.each time. every wrong try was penalized, i had to wait and restart again. Man, it was frustrating and i was panicked when i could not unlock using the same "4 digit" pin that i had entered while locking the mac from my iPhone. It is a distant, fast, reliable, and straightforward solution you can find in the market today.I did face similar issue on with my existing Mac Book Air 2012 model when I got my new iPhone 6+ and was "testing" iCloud mac locate/lock feature. Only the CheckM8 software can unlock MacBook Pro and Air.
Erasing, reactivating, restoring, recovering, rebooting the macOS device will not solve the problem. You enable this System Lock PIN when you turn on Find My and erase or report your MacBook Air (Pro) as lost through iCloud.Īll these types of MacBook Lock will not go away if you do not know the correct password. Thirdly, users can turn on the iCloud System PIN Lock on MacBook. This type of passcode protects a computer from untrusted firmware loads during startup. Secondly, users can enable EFI or the Extensible Firmware Interface password lock on MacBook with a T2 chip. And the owner can lock the computer in several ways.įirstly, when a user enables the Find My Mac app on MacBook, this tool automatically sets on the Activation Lock screen when someone enters an incorrect Apple ID and password.
The T2 security chip controls the booting process and ensures that the MacBook Air (Pro) owner starts the system. It secures the most critical macOS options, including Activation Lock, storage of encrypted data, secure boot, etc.
A MacBook Pro and MacBook Air, released in 2018 and later, both come with the T2 chip. Some Apple computers have an extra layer of protection, a T2 security chip.
