Error -2006F on startup Solved

Question

Hello, good evening
I’m reaching out to you today because my MacBook Air has a serious problem. After a reset operation, I’m trying to turn it back on, but when it does, I see a folder with a flashing question mark endlessly.
So I decided to perform the following operation: cmd+r at startup.
Everything goes well until it asks me to connect to the internet. I enter the password, it connects, and then disconnects!
Frustrated, I turn off and on the PC to redo the manipulation, and a message appears: Apple.com/support. -2006F

Please help me; I need to use the PC for my baccalaureate (I'm taking it on April 2).

Using a bootable USB drive is certainly possible, but you need a properly created drive for that. I've written several methods depending on the version of Mac OS, and even Apple has created a page for this. What you need is to have another Mac to create this drive. It is theoretically not possible from a PC running Windows without workarounds, since Windows cannot natively write to Mac OS format or APFS format, and does not understand Terminal commands.

For example, see:

https://www.commentcamarche.net/faq/47030-creer-une-cle-usb-d-installation-de-macos-sierra

And Apple’s support:

If creating this USB drive is not possible, the best option would be to get the appropriate adapter cable for this Mac model: https://support.apple.com/fr-fr/HT201862

Hello,

Indeed, after performing a reset, I'm trying to turn it back on, but when it powers on, I see a folder with a flashing question mark constantly.

A reset? So maybe you deleted the OS, and now you only have the recovery partition left on the Mac. In that case, it prompts you to connect to the internet to reinstall the OS. But I imagine you are trying to make this connection via Wi-Fi, which, moreover, is a Wi-Fi with a password, hence the inability to connect or to establish a reliable connection to reach Apple's servers. Hence this error message.

You need to redo the process, but by connecting the Mac to the internet via an Ethernet cable directly to the router. Depending on the age and model of the MacBook Air, you may not have an Ethernet port on this Mac, so you will need a USB or Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter. It depends on the exact model of the Mac.

Best regards.
