I have a Macbook Pro Early 2011 from the USA.  After installing Mavericks, Adobe CS6 crashes whenever it is plugged into a 27inch cinema display I purchased from the apple store in China (We moved to China). It works when not plugged into 27inch display.

I have a Macbook Pro Early 2011 from the USA. It is now running Mavericks.  I connect it to a 27" Cinema Display that I bought in China after we moved to China.  Before I installed Mavericks, I could run all of the Adobe CS6 and Adobe CS5.5 applications on my Macbook Pro while connected to the cinema display. Now that I have Mavericks installed, whenever I am connected to my 27" CInema display my Adobe applications crash upon opening.  I know this is a rare scenario, but does anyone have any ideas how to fix this problem? Is there a new driver that needs installed?  I'd appreciate any help.

I am also having a similar issue. I used Adobe Lightroom and my whole display goes black. Even my laptop screen and the lights on the keyboard go black. I can still hear the fan running, so I assume it is just the display. This is my first Mac and I have had nothing but issues. I think I am going back to Windows after this.

    I changed my wireless broadband to a landline-base DSL wifi and it works like a charm. Sun was the culprit even you fiddle with its router and disable firewall, it won't work.
    try changing yours too and let me know how it goes.

    Hi All,
    I need your expert advice to proceed. I bought apple TV and it works fine with my iPad and iPhones also fine with itune of my Mac Book Pro BUT I am not seeing setting which says "Airplay Mirroring" in system preference -> Display at all.
    I checked my mac serial number and it shows the model as below. As far as I understood this feature should be there from 2011 onwards.
    MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2011)
    Software  Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63b)
    Please suggest!!
    Thanks and Regards

    About AirPlay and Airplay Mirroring
    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). For non-qualifying Macs you can try using Air Parrot.

  • Macbook pro (early 2011) won't boot after sleep. Black screen with chime

    I put my macbook pro early 2011 (Quad, 8 Gb RAM, 2 x SSD-disks, external 27" LED-screen) into sleep mode a couple of days ago. Everything was fine then.
    However, the morning after it wouldn't wake up - this is the bootup process:
    - Black screen
    - Chime
    - Still black screen, nothing happens.
    So I've tried resetting NVRAM, SMC etc - no luck. Even tried the "Powerbutton" + "S" + Enter but to no avail.So I immediately began dd:ing my SSD-disk before trying anything else, figured it might be some preboot-corruption of some sort since I'm running FileVault2 with full AES-encryption.
    Now, the problem (after some troubleshooting) doesn't seem to be disk-oriented. Remember the black screen? I've tried pulling the SATA-cables one by one on the motherboard of the Macbook pro and discovered that when I pulled the cable which reaches over the optical device (just above the SATA-cable for the optical device) then I get a white screen and I'm able to get as far as boot-option, or even disk repair (if I run my SSD-disk over USB and without any cables (three of them) attacked to the motherboard).
    So since nothing works when I have disks connected or that third cable (some kind of logic board bridge? Reaches through the screen over to the other side of the mother board).
    Also worth noting is that I was running out of free disk-space on my system disk. The disk is 250 Gb and free space was about 5-10 Gb (less than 5%). I also make the macbook pro dump contents of memory to disk (since my disk is encrypted it resides safely there).
    So, my fear is that Apple hasn't used A-grade controllers for the disk drives (I've had drive corruption before, a Crucial 6 GB/s drive trashed less than a week before a presentation) and doesn't handle "unexpected events" nor signal/noise ratio very well. Maybe free space on disk was less than the 8 Gb needed to dump RAM (shouldn't have needed the full 8 Gb though) and this caused some kind of panic overwrite which trashed the controller?
    Anyways, I've attached an image of the motherboard and I am wondering - what does the top cable which reaches over the optical drive do? Is it connected to the logic-board?

    Looks to me like a fatal error on the hard disk. IMHO, the only solution is to boot from an external device, reformat the hard drive, and restore from backup. If you don't have a backup, you're in trouble. Boot from the external device, try to mount the int'l drive, and, if successful, back up as much as possible. Also, try running Disk Utility—it may be possible to fix it while booted from a different device, thought I wouldn't bank on it. At any rate, make sure to run an AHT afterwards, to check for possible hardware issues with the drive.
    If the machine is still covered by AppleCare, take it to the store by all means. But they won't try to recover anything from the int'l drive, just check it, erase it if they don't find hardware issues, and re-install a fresh copy of the OS.
    That's why you should always have at least 1 up-to-date backup (2, with one kept off-site, is better).

  • I have a Macbook Pro Early 2011, with 10.7.5 that recently started freezing.

    I have run disk verification and repair.  I have tried resetting the SMS with that- hold down cmd, opt, shift and power at start up trick.  I have deleted tons of files that were a waste of space.  The problem started after trying to run time machine to reaccess my internet history. I deleted the history and then realized that I wanted it again and I used time machine to recover it. That was around the time it started freezing up.  Also, another culprit could be my email... I accedentally set my email account to active on my school profile and recieved tons of emails at once. I tried deleting them, but many of them gave me an error message and wouldn't let me delete.  Then my computer started freezing up... I don't know what was the culprit, but maybe these clues help?
    Also, I am wondering if I upgrade to the free Maverick OS if this has a chance at fixing the problem.  ?
    Please help! It's been several days now and I am trying to get my school work done.  If all else fails I will take it to the Apple Store.

  • MacBook Pro (Early 2008) battery health drop after installing Snow Leopard?

    I installed Snow Leopard last Friday, when after the installation, I clicked my battery icon as I was looking through the new OS- and noticed that it said "Service Battery" which I hadn't seen before. So I looked in System Profiler and noticed that the maximum charge was around 3400mAh, quite a bit lower than the 5400mAh that it started with 14 months ago. So thinking that it might just be displaying incorrectly, I did a battery calibration (it was about that time anyway) as per the instructions on http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1490 and when I plugged it back in after letting it sit in sleep for five hours, it shows 2848mAh as the maximum charge. There is no way that it would have lost ~600mAh worth of charge capacity through one calibration. The battery only has 198 cycles on it, and it states on http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html that the battery is designed to have 80% charge capacity at 300 cycles. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there any way to improve battery health, short of buying a new one? Or does Apple cover batteries in cases like this?
    edit- I just noticed I posted this in the wrong MBP battery forum, but can't find a way to move it or delete it- sorry about that!
    Message was edited by: david.moore

    I installed Snow Leopard as well (made a clean install) and got the same message "check the battery". I followed the procedure on http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1490, since I had the same problem (my battery capacity was significantly low compared to the cycles, I had ~2800 mAh (60%) for only 60 cycles) and when I rebooted the computer, it even dropped down to ~2095 mAh (40%) !! *So the good advice is to _NOT follow HT1490_ advice...*
    I tried as well http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1411 but it didn't helped...
    I guess I'll have to take a meeting at Genius Bar to the closest Apple store... Did anyone got his battery replaced ? I think this is one serious issue where Apple should either :
    1. Remove this bad advice's page and warn users against it
    2. Upgrade the battery's firmware (is there any?) or OS battery life detection
    Anyway it's very annoying that when doing a "recommended" manipulation, it even makes the problem worse !!

  • Instant Hotspot not working on MacBook Pro Early 2011?

    Hi and tnxs for reading.
    I have a MacBook Pro Early 2011, and I cannot figure out how to use Instant Hotspot.
    It is regularly working as standard hotspot by activating it on my iPhone and checking the iPhone WiFi Hotspot from WiFi menu, but otherwise is not available after the iPhone goes on stby...exactly as before.
    Is this a limitation like the major part of Continuity?

  • Thunderbolt 2 external hard drive not working with Macbook Pro (early 2011)

    Hi,
    I'm new to this forum and I hope you guys can help me with this:
    I've recently bought an external hard drive that works on Thunderbolt 2 (LaCie d2 3TB). When I connect the new drive to my Macbook Pro through the thunderbolt port, the drive isn't recognized. However, the drive works fine through a USB connection.
    I thought that Thunderbolt and Thunderbolt 2 are compatible, however this doesn't seem to be the case. Maybe it's because the OS X / driver / firmware version that I'm working on that is not updated? I work on an early 2011 Macbook Pro: OS X Version 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard).
    Thank you very much for your help!

    Hi danielsh6,
    I recently bought the new Lacie Thunderbolt 2 D2 3TB and I had the same problem as you, i have a macbook pro early 2011, those support thunderbolt but many times there is a bug that doesn't let you connect any thunderbolt drives to your computer. The solution I found was installing this update:
    Thunderbolt Firmware Update v1.0
    Before doing this I would recommend you updating to mountain lion (not yosemite yet as there is still some glitches and more on preview's macbook pro's).
    Hope this helped!

  • Hard drive replacement (MacBook Pro Early 2011)

    I have a MacBook Pro Early 2011 - OS X Version 10.9.3
    Processor - 2.7 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory - 10GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Macintosh HD - Start up Disk
    I am looking to replace my hard drive (500GB) with a 4TB Hard Drive ( I have tons of digital copies of movies and home videos/pictures)
    I have looked around the Intrawebzors and can't really find a hard drive that is definitively compatible.
    With that being said, I am very aware that replacing a hard drive is easy (the actual labor) BUT - what is the process of transferring the data???? I have ALOT of stuff (500GB HD COMPLETELY FULL) and it would be horrible to lose any of it !! , Is it
    Now is it cost effective to just have apple do this for me at one of the local locations??? Or is it easy like the labor of actually installing the Hard Drive...Very Confused can't get straight answers without asking the questions I have..
    Thank you in Advance for your responses! Much Appreciated!

    There are no internal 4TB drives that would fit in your machine. The largest spinning drives that I am aware that would fit into your machine are 1.5TB. Cost would be right at $100 or slightly above I think.
    Installing the drive is very straight-forward and there are many videos on line that walk you through the process.
    If you actually need 4TB of space, I would suggest purchasing a 4TB external drive.
    Good luck,

    However, I saw some site selling upgrade to 16GB to my model.
    My question - is it possible to perform upgrade to 16GB like those site suggested, or only 8GB ?
