How do you format a MacBook Pro?

Answer 1

In order to reformat (restore to factory settings) you need to do a clean install (using an installation disk) However, I would recommend backing up important documents, if you don't own an external hard drive, I suggest this: http://gdisk.sourceforge.net/

Answer 2

That depends. If the hard drive you want to reformat is not your main OSX drive, you goto finder, applications, utilities, and disk utilites, select the drive and format.

if it is the main system drive, you will need an osx install DVD. boot the disc, start setup and run the disc utilities from osx setup.

Answer 3

applications<utilities<disk utility click the disk you want to format and go to the erase tab. there u can select the format and how many times you want it to erase

Answer 4

You want to reformat the hard disk? Use Disk Utility in the Utilities folder which is in the Applications folder.
