![NEW Sequoia Macintosh Screen Saver HD [FULL VIDEO LOOP!!!]
Everyone has been asking about the new macOS Sequoia Vintage Macintosh Screen Saver & wallpaper! This new screensaver is NOT a looping video, it is an actual framework/application that can dynamically generate different images AND display the current date and time! I recorded it in 1080p on a M1 MacBook Air. This should be the full loop starting with the Mac Booting icon and looping all the way back. Enjoy!!!

Apple Configurator gives you 2 options
Restore - You can erase & reinstall macOS on your mac in under 10 minutes
Revive - This will retain user data and reinstall macOS recovery if you are having problems booting into macOS recovery.
This mode will also help you if your Mac will not boot or if it is booting to an exclamation point.
I will go over how to restore macOS on your new Apple Silicon Mac. Your first line of defense for installing macOS on Apple Silicon should be macOS Recovery. But if for some reason you are having problems with that you can boot your Apple Silicon Mac with a Big Sur USB installer drive.
