  1. Turn device on. If the device has been wiped/reset, the first thing you will see is the Activate Mac screen.  This should happen automatically once you have connected to a network. Once activated click Exit to Recovery and the computer will restart and prompt you to reinstall the latest OS. Installation of the OS can take 1-2 hours depending on the speed of your device and network. Once the OS is installed your device will automatically restart and you can begin the setup and enrollment process.
