Hi, Im trying to factory reset one of my macbook pros because it's been acting very strange, i.e. kicking me off wifi, hiding open applications and it just feels like it needs a fresh start. So i went on youtube for the tutorials and its asking me to shut it down. 2nd step is to hold down the power button along with the option key and 2 hard drives are supposed to pop up 1.the recovery HD and 2. the regular macintosh HD problem is I'm only getting the regular macintosh HD and the one i need is the recovery one. my 2011 macbook pulls up both but im having nonstop trouble with the 2010. any tips on how to either reset it a different way or recover the recovering HD? please and thanks!
