4. 2018 MBP is operating Massive Sur (probably a latest beta model, icr)
5. Have up to date 2011 iMac to Excessive Sierra 10.13.6. It is transferring slowly, nevertheless it’s undoubtedly transferring. It is a 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7, 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3, loads of free disk house – 1.76TB.
6. I’ve most vital stuff on the MBP backed up, however involved attributable to medical causes that very important issues could not have been backed up in latest instances – my eye has been off the ball considerably…
7. I actually need to entry the Knowledge on the MBP if I probably can.

What I’ve Tried Already

9. Up to date iMac to HS, to create bootable installer of Excessive Sierra utilizing Terminal instructions. It is Prolonged Quantity, not AFPS. Could make one other in AFPS if it would remotely assist.
10. MBP didn’t boot to it. Nonetheless brings up Community immediate which in the end appears to trigger the fail every time.
11. MBP seems to course of connecting the MBP to WiFi Community every time, however then produces number of error codes on the finish, even when utilizing bootable installer and Possibility key.
    12 Have even put total Excessive Sierra OS on exterior drive, endeavouring to successfully use exterior drive as a Mac Mini with ailing MBP simply the display screen. Nope. Nonetheless needs to connect with to Community (that is for the Firmware, afaik?)
12. Have at this time linked MBP to iMac utilizing Thunderbolt 3 cable and USB-C to Thunderbolt adaptor.
13. Endeavouring besides utilizing Goal Disk Mode.
14. Can see MBP Macintosh HD – Knowledge in Disk Utility, however can not carry out First Help, nor Mount it. IMAGE BELOW
15. Even have a Drive titled Replace in externals, which appears to point out the Knowledge and ?(Massive Sur beta replace?) perhaps? (I have not known as it Replace, and I am not fairly positive what it’s) IMAGE BELOW
16. Tried Terminal instructions to Confirm Knowledge, getting a wide range of Permission Denied errors. IMAGE BELOW
17. Tried diskutil verifyDisk disk2 which provides:
    Unable to confirm this entire disk: A GUID Partition Desk (GPT) partitioning scheme is required (-69773)
18. Tried diskutil verifyDisk disk2s1 (that is the quantity(?) with the info on) which provides:
    “A complete disk have to be specified”
19. <mutters ‘make your bloody thoughts up…’>
20. Downloaded iBoysoft to try to get well knowledge.
21. It could actually see the Knowledge, however there is a padlock on the Drive and it is asking: “Please enter the password of your encrypted APFS partition” IMAGE BELOW
22. Questioning if it is a FireVault factor? I am undecided if it is switched on, on the MBP or not. Whether it is, I’ve completely no concept what the encrypted partition password is, nor the place I would discover such info.
23. Apparently, I can run iBoysoft Knowledge Restoration in macOS Restoration mode.
24. I am undecided if this can be difficult as a result of I’m additionally utilizing Goal Disk Mode, relatively than operating iBoysoft straight on the affected MBP, as a result of I can not. A search of the iBoysoft FAQs fails to supply a solution to this question.

Subsequent Steps

26. Is there any level in creating one other Bootable Installer, this time as APFS, relatively than Prolonged Quantity?
27. The place can I discover the encrypted APFS password information? (I am not satisfied I’ve one, however it could have switched on by default?) I’m a satan for recording passwords so if I used to be conscious this existed, I completely would have made a notice of it. What wouldn’t it appear like format-wise?
28. And the place would I enter it for the Disk Utility or Terminal to have the ability to entry ‘MBP Macintosh HD – Knowledge’?
29. Would getting into the command immediate sudo Fsck_APFS /dev/disk2s1 do something useful?
30. I’ve a 2019 MBP operating Massive Sur which thoughtfully concurrently fell over. This occurred whereas I used to be awaiting supply of the super-fast Thunderbolt 3 cable to do the info switch. It has refused to modify on since, so I’m just about caught with the 2011 iMac as rescuer for now. (And sure, I’ve tried all the same old suspects NVRAM, SMC on the lifeless second MBP and so forth)

I’m an absolute novice in any respect of this, so please converse ** s l o w l y ** to me in easy phrases. That is my first publish and I am doing my greatest…
