Selling MBPR, erased drive and cannot install OSX

Ok, so I am selling my early 2013 MBPR so have backed it up, erased the hard drive, but now cannot even reinstall OSX on it.
The MBPR came with Mountain Lion, but I have upgraded to Mavericks. I think this is what was causing the issue maybe?
I get an error message on a grey screen saying: Apple.com/support -3001F (see image)
How can I reinstall this software? I am now having to load from an old backup which is a pain in the ***, just so I can reinstall OSX.
I followed these instructions:

Follow these instructions step by step to prepare a Mac for sale:
Step One - Back up your data:
       A. If you have any Virtual PCs shut them down. They cannot be in their "fast saved" state. They must be shut down from inside Windows.
       B. Clone to an external drive using using Carbon Copy Cloner.
          1. Open Carbon Copy Cloner.
          2. Select the Source volume from the Select a source drop down menu on the left side.
          3. Select the Destination volume from the Select a destination drop down menu on the right
              side.
          4. Click on the Clone button. If you are prompted about creating a clone of the Recovery HD be
              sure to opt for that.
               Destination means a freshly erased external backup drive. Source means the internal
               startup drive.
Step Two - Prepare the machine for the new buyer:
          1. De-authorize the computer in iTunes! De-authorize both iTunes and Audible accounts.
          2, Remove any Open Firmware passwords or Firmware passwords.
          3. Turn the brightness full up and volume nearly so.
          4. Turn off File Vault, if enabled.
          5. Use Boot Camp Assistant to remove a Windows partition, if there be one.
          6. Disable iCloud, if enabled: See.What to do with iCloud before selling your computer
Step Three - Install a fresh OS:
     B. Lion and Mountain Lion (if pre-installed on the computer at purchase*)
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because
                   it is three times faster than wireless.
          1. Restart the computer while holding down the COMMAND and R keys until the Mac OS X
              Utilities window appears.
          2. Select Disk Utility from the Mac OS X Utilities window and click on the Continue button.
          3. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list. Click
              on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
          4. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on the Security button
              and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
          5. Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
          6. Quit DU and return to the Mac OS X Utilities window.
          7. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
          8. Upon completion shutdown the computer.
     C. See What to do before selling or giving away your Mac
*If your computer came with Lion or Mountain Lion pre-installed then you are entitled to transfer your license once. You must remove the computer from your list of registered hardware. If you purchased Lion or Mountain Lion from the App Store then you cannot transfer your license to another party. In this case you should install the original version of OS X that came with your computer. You need to repartition the hard drive as well as reformat it; this will assure that the Recovery HD partition is removed. See Step Three above. You may verify these requirements by reviewing your OS X Software License. See Terms and Conditions if you need to transfer an Extended Warranty that is still in effect (Transfer of Plan.)

Thanks LowLuster.
So after restarting while pushing Command + Option/alt + r, I get the globe on the screen for Internet Recovery.
Next step is to erase the hard drive (Macintosh HD)
Then reinstall OSX?
I'll give this a go, but I can't see the option for 'Disk Utility to Repartition the drive as One Partition to Remove the Mavericks Built In Recovery HD partition from the internal drive' - all there is is the usual disc utility to erase it?
EDIT: It's now letting me reinstall Mountain Lion after erasing the hard drive, excellent

  • My iMac is getting really slow.  It used to boot in about 30 seconds, now it's over 3 minutes.  I am thinking I may backup photo's Videos and such and format the hard drives and re-install OSX.  Any thoughts on this?

    This computer used to boot up in about 30 seconds, now it's minutes, programs are starting to freeze, or take a long time to boot.  I suspect it's bits and fragments from programs that I have used and deleted over the years, but are still floating around inside my iMac.  I really don't want to re-format and re-install OSX  but the lack of performance is finally starting to irritate me.  (Haveing switched from windows in 2009, I can tell you, I used to reformat and re-install windows about every 3 months because I liked that fresh fast boot up feel.)  Any advice is welcome.  Here's a printout from a program that lists everything using my system.
    Thanks.

    In addition to Mike's suggestions,  you only have 4GB of RAM and Mavericks does use more RAM than other versions. You may also want to look at the apps that startup on login and the possiblity of upgrading RAM.

  • Is there a way to recover iPhoto library after erasing drive and clean install of Mavericks?

    Is there a way to recover the photos in my iphoto library after erasing my SSD drive and reinstalling mavericks? My time capsule backed everything up except iphoto, and I had 3 years worth of important photots in there. Is there any way to recover them?

    In addition to using a Time Capsule drive and using Time Machine, with this painful lesson learned, in the near future, purchase another high quality, high speed (USB 3.0, Thundetbolt OR FireWIre 800 depending what connections are on your Mac) external hard drive, formatted for Mac, and use a data cloning app such as CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper to make bootable clones/copies of your Mac's entire internal hard drive.
    Bootable clones and data cloning apps are the best and most reliable way of creating reliable backups of your important data in the future.
    Also, my other advise stands, too! If you have data the is like "gold" to you copy this data manually to other media such as CDs/DVDs and/or high capacity USB flash drives.
    Sorry you have lost your precious photos.
    Painful lesson, but good info to prevent this all from happening,again.
    WIth computers, having many copies and redundancies of data is key to never losing important computer data.
    Again, sorry.

  • Just installed a new SSD C: drive.  The old C: drive is now H: drive. I am unable to uninstal from the old C: (H:) drive and cannot install on the new C:drive.  How do I get around this issue ?

    When I attempt to start up Photoshop CS5, I get an error code 6.  Is there a way to uninstall the Adobe Suite from the old C: drive.

    That is what I ended up doing.  It was a chore but it worked.

  • I have a white Macbook 2009 on OSX Lion. It came with the OSX Snow Leopard CD, I erased the HDD and am trying to install the OSX from disc but am getting "cannot install OSX from disc" message. What can I do?

    I have a white Macbook 2009 on OSX Lion. It came with the OSX Snow Leopard CD, I erased the HDD and am trying to install the OSX from disc but am getting "cannot install OSX from disc" message. What can I do?
    I got the macbook from a friend a few years ago and it already had OSX Lion installed. Whenever it boots from the Snow Leopard disc it says it cannot install from disc. Is there anythingI can do or should I take it to an Apple store to get them to boot OSX Lion for me?

    Insert your Snow Leopard disc and restart, press and hold the C key as soon as you hearthe startup chime, hold C until you see the Apple Logo. When your computer starts up you'll be at the first install screen, choose your language and click the arrow to go to the next screen. This screen has a menu bar, from the Utilities menu select Disk Utility, select your hard drive, this is the one with the manufacturers name or numbers, click the partition tab and then delete any existing partitions by selecting them and clicking the minus. In the drop down box select one partition and click apply. Name your hard drive and click erase. When it's done quit DU and go back to the installer, install Snow Leopard. When the installer is done and the computer is back up and running run Software Update to get to 10.6.8

  • New Internal Hard Drive and Clean Install: Errors, Frustration and Hopelessness

    First Off:
    Macbook 13" (late 2009) ... It was running Mountain Lion 10.8.5 with 2 gigs of memory and 160gig stock hard drive.
    I started this process almost a week ago and despite numerous attempts every night I have had no luck. I appologize if the details here are fuzzy, my head is spinning after reading dozens of threads and attempting multiple solutions to each error I've received and i cant remember everything I've tried so far...
    I got my new memory in the mail first, upgraded to 4 gigs and everything works fine with that..
    Next came my new Seagate Momentus 750 gb 7200 rpm SATA 3gb/s 16Mb Internal Hard Drive.
    Using this guide: http://osxdaily.com/2012/02/17/make-bootable-os-x-10-8-mountain-lion-usb-install -drive/ (and cross checking other guides) I ended up creating a bootable external drive using my 160gb External Firewire drive for my clean install to my new hard drive. So far so good.
    I then shut down the computer, removed the old internal hard drive, installed the new, restarted the computer holding option key and booted up using the External Hard Drive, and the install software started fine. Note: I have attempted to re-erase the drive so many times without luck that I cant remember if I actually successfully erased the drive originally to begin with the installation, but either way I started the OSX reinstall and it got almost all the way finished before it gave me the error message:
    "Install failed. Mac OS X Lion couldn’t be installed, because the disk (volume name) is damaged and can’t be repaired. Click restart to restart your computer and try installing again."
    restarting of course did nothing, it repeatedly gave me error messages and made me quit installation...
    Disk Utility isnt getting me anywhere, im either getting errors like:
    "POSIX reports: the operation couldnt be completed. device no configured"
    it wont allow me to erase the drive or partition the drive
    "Disk Erase failed with the error: File System Formatter Failed"
    and everytime the drive fails to erase or partition, it disappears from the list of drives on the left of the disk utility screen and i have to restart the computer for it to reappear for a second try. Typically the volume under the drive is greyed out and says that it is unmounted.
    Ive zapped the PRAM.... and Ive done other things that I cant quite remember right now because my brain is boiling from reading too many **** threads on multiple devices....
    halp.
    halp me plase.

    So funny story...
    While writing this discussion I had to come to the computer and try to erase the drive so I could see the error code for reference. The erase didnt work as usual but I wrote the error code down here.
    I also could not remember the error code for partitioning the drive so I attempted that as well so I could write down the code, and this time it magically partitioned successfully! The only thing I did differently was that I didn't rename the partition because i figured it wouldn't matter anyway. Since the partition was successful, I attempted the Reinstall of ML and it magically worked!!
    I dont know what the **** happened but ive been attempting this install every night for like 3 hours since Monday and this is the first time it went through... for no apparent reason?
    Ghosts? Magic? Full Moon?
    we may never know...
    Thanks anyways guys!

  • Erase HD and re install OS X

    My powrbook's hard drive became corrupted and Disk Utility and Drive Genius utilty both said to erase the drive.
    I have tried repeatedly to turn off file vault and to do a backup but even with dragging almost everything from my users folder to a fire wire backup drive. And then deleting the files, I can't turn off file vault. I have repaired the drive and disk permissions many times. I am not getting the erase drive message any more but the computer is not working well at all and is very slow. Something is corrupted.
    I'd like to quit wating time trying to turn off file vault and just erase the drive and start over.
    A If I manually drag everything to the backup drive from my users folder is that sufficient to backup? Will it be encrypted if done this way?
    B Then which OSX disk do I want to use to erase the drive and re install OS X 10.4? Do I have to re install 10.3 first? Or just use the 10.4 dvd? Is there a tutorial somewhere on backup and restore?
    File vault is wasting tons of my time and not turning off.

    If I manually drag everything to the backup drive from my users folder is that sufficient to backup?
    That will only preserve your settings and data, not your 3rd-party applications.
    Will it be encrypted if done this way?
    No.
    Then which OSX disk do I want to use to erase the drive and re install OS X 10.4? Do I have to re install 10.3 first? Or just use the 10.4 dvd?
    Depends. Is your Tiger install disk a full retail version or an updater? If the former, then use it. If not, the use the Panther restore disk.
    Is there a tutorial somewhere on backup and restore?
    See the articles at http://index-site.master.com/texis/master/search/?q=backup&xsubmit=Search&s=SS and http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/backuprecovery.html. Note that Carbon Copy Cloner, SuperDuper!, and SilverKeeper are alternative backup programs to Retrospect. I've used Carbon Copy Cloner for over three years without any problems.

  • Cannot install OSX on This Computer

    I intend to sell my iMac as i have already bought a new one.
    In order to erase all my private data I have tried to reinstall Leopard on my old iMac. This is not as easy as i thought.
    After inserting the Install DVD disk into the iMac en starting up pressing down the letter C, I select the language to be installed, after that all i get is the error message :
    *Cannot install OSX on This Computer*
    I have no idea what i do wrong. I even tried to format the disk using the disk utility, dough with little succes. The error still come up.
    I could really use some help.
    By the way, I have of course searched through other topics for a similar problem, I could not find anything that helped me solve my problem.

    this error is typical when you are trying to use a wrong leopard install disk. are you using an install disk that came with a different computer? if so that won't work as such disks are hardware specific and will produce the kind of error you are seeing. you need to use a retail copy of leopard or the install disk that originally came with this computer (if the computer came with leopard).

  • How do I uninstall snow leopard and re-install OSX leopard?

    How do I uninstall snow leopard and re-install OSX leopard?

    Sorry to hear that, Snow Leopard runs as fast or faster than either Tiger and Leopard did on my Jan 2006 Early Intel iMac on 2GB of RAM?
    Before you blame Snow Leopard, run the Extended Apple Hardware Test and check the SMART status of your Hard Drive to make sure that you do not have another problem.

  • HT4848 Hello- My laptop needs the OS X recovery run. Can I download the software directly to a thumb drive without affecting my desktop unit? The Geek Squad said they need to wipe my hard drive and re-install the operating system. Thanks.

    Hello- My laptop needs the OS X recovery run. Can I download the software directly to a thumb drive without affecting my desktop unit? The Geek Squad said they need to wipe my hard drive and re-install the operating system. Thanks.

    They already damaged you Mac by fooling with the BootCamp partition without knowing what they were doing. I wouldn't suggest haveing them help you do anything.
    Here is the article that describes the Recovery HD: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    First, see if you can boot into the Recovery HD. Restart and hold down cmd-r until you see the gray screen. It should boot into Recovery. If your Mac shipped with Lion or Mountain Lion, it will boot into Internet Recovery if it cannot boot into the Recovery HD on the hard drive.
    They should have tried this at the store.

  • Cannot install osx

    Having  followed Apple supports guidance s to how to begin to restore my early 2008 iMac in readiness to sell, I am now unable to install Snow Leopard OS from the original Apple DVD.. I select install from Disk Utility and then select the language which then immediately tells me that I cannot install OSX on this computer.
    any suggestions please ?

    Are you using a retail version of OS X or a machine-specific one? If you are using a Tiger disc for an iBook, and eMac, etc, it will not work.
