Disk Utility User Guide
You can restore a disk image to a disk. To do this, you first need to erase the disk. If the disk image has multiple partitions, you must restore each partition individually.
Restore a disk image with a single volume to a disk
In the Disk Utility app on your Mac, select the volume that you want to restore in the sidebar, then click the Restore button .
This is the volume that is erased and becomes the exact copy.
Click the Restore pop-up menu, then choose the volume you want to copy.
If you’re restoring from a disk image, click the Image button, then navigate to that disk image.
Click Restore.
Restore a disk image with multiple volumes to a disk
To restore a disk image with multiple volumes to a disk, you must partition the destination disk, then restore each volume individually.
In the Finder on your Mac, double-click the disk image to open it.
The disk image’s volumes appear as disks in the Finder.
In the Disk Utility app, select the disk in the sidebar, click the Partition button , then partition the destination disk.
The destination disk must have as many partitions as the disk image, and each of the disk’s partitions must be at least as large as the corresponding partition in the disk image. See Partition a physical disk in Disk Utility on Mac.
In the sidebar, select the volume that you want to restore, then click the Restore button .
This is the volume that is erased and becomes the exact copy.
Do one of the following:
Restore from a volume: Click the “Restore from” pop-up menu, then choose the volume you want to copy.
Restore from a disk image: Click Image, choose the disk image you want to copy, then click Open.
Click Restore.
Repeat steps 3–5 for each remaining partition.
These advanced steps are primarily for system administrators and others who are familiar with the command line. You don't need a bootable installer to upgrade macOS or reinstall macOS, but it can be useful when you want to install on multiple computers without downloading the installer each time.
What you need to create a bootable installer
- A USB flash drive or other secondary volume, formatted as Mac OS Extended, with at least 12GB of available storage
- A downloaded installer for macOS Big Sur, Catalina, Mojave, High Sierra, or El Capitan
Download macOS
- Download: macOS Big Sur, macOS Catalina, macOS Mojave, or macOS High Sierra
These download to your Applications folder as an app named Install macOS [version name]. If the installer opens after downloading, quit it without continuing installation. To get the correct installer, download from a Mac that is using macOS Sierra 10.12.5 or later, or El Capitan 10.11.6. Enterprise administrators, please download from Apple, not a locally hosted software-update server. - Download: OS X El Capitan
This downloads as a disk image named InstallMacOSX.dmg. On a Mac that is compatible with El Capitan, open the disk image and run the installer within, named InstallMacOSX.pkg. It installs an app named Install OS X El Capitan into your Applications folder. You will create the bootable installer from this app, not from the disk image or .pkg installer.
Use the 'createinstallmedia' command in Terminal
- Connect the USB flash drive or other volume that you're using for the bootable installer.
- Open Terminal, which is in the Utilities folder of your Applications folder.
- Type or paste one of the following commands in Terminal. These assume that the installer is in your Applications folder, and MyVolume is the name of the USB flash drive or other volume you're using. If it has a different name, replace
MyVolume
in these commands with the name of your volume.
Big Sur:*
Catalina:*
Mojave:*
High Sierra:*
El Capitan:
* If your Mac is using macOS Sierra or earlier, include the --applicationpath
argument and installer path, similar to the way this is done in the command for El Capitan.
After typing the command:
- Press Return to enter the command.
- When prompted, type your administrator password and press Return again. Terminal doesn't show any characters as you type your password.
- When prompted, type
Y
to confirm that you want to erase the volume, then press Return. Terminal shows the progress as the volume is erased. - After the volume is erased, you may see an alert that Terminal would like to access files on a removable volume. Click OK to allow the copy to proceed.
- When Terminal says that it's done, the volume will have the same name as the installer you downloaded, such as Install macOS Big Sur. You can now quit Terminal and eject the volume.
Use the bootable installer
Determine whether you're using a Mac with Apple silicon, then follow the appropriate steps:
