How to access MacOS Recovery on an Apple Silicon MacĬlick on the Apple Icon and Shut Down your Mac. The new recovery mode looks similar to previous versions, but you get to it in a different way. (Side note: The easiest way to tell if you have an Apple Silicon Mac is to click on the Apple icon on the far left of the menu bar, followed by About This Mac and look at the Chip section.)
I'll walk you through how to get to Recovery Mode and use all of the options as well as provide a couple of workarounds to problems I've encountered. More specifically, the steps to access Recovery Mode, the tool you need to use to reset your Mac, have changed. However, when it comes time to reset the new Mac, either because you're selling it, handing it down or troubleshooting it, there are completely new steps to completely wipe the M1 and M2-based models.
In your day-to-day use, you likely won't notice any operational difference, and that's a good thing. If you've bought a new MacBook Air, MacBook Pro iMac, Mac Studio or Mac Mini within the past couple of years, it almost certainly uses Apple's own processor, either the Apple Silicon M1 or Apple Silicon M2, instead of an Intel chip.
