MacBook Pro 15" Late 2011 Problems with iMac 27" Late 2009 TDM

Hi,
I just got problems with my iMac 27" Late 2009 (Mini-DisplayPort) and my MacBook Pro 15" Late 2011 (Thunderbolt).
When I try to use my iMac as external monitor for my MacBook, there are massive glitches and graphical bugs on my second screen.
I bought a MDP-to-MDP wire from Belkin which works perfect on other computers.
I tried these things:
- Disconnected MagSafe from MacBook + unplugged all USB devices + switched graphics to discrete.
- Shut down all computers ... then booted MBP, iMac and triggered CMD+F2
- SMC, PRAM reset on both devices
The cable works, because:
17" MacBook Pro Late 2011 works perfectly on my iMac screen with my Belkin wire!
I connected my MacBook Pro 15" to a 27" Cinema Display and it works flawless.
After that I plugged it out and tested it again with my iMac screen -> suddenly it works.
Retriggering CMD+F2 or replugging breaks it again with massive bugs.
The MacBook Pro 17" is on 10.7.2, 15" is on 10.7.3, but I also tried to trigger dual screen in 10.7.0 setup with the same issue.
Maybe its a problem with the internal 6750M of my MacBook Pro 15"?
The 6770M of the 17" is working well.

All updates/firmware updates of iMac and MacBook Pro are installed.
Any solutions?

  • Problem installing Windows 8 via Bootcamp on MacBook Pro 13 (late 2009).

    Hello,
    I've installed Windows 8 Pro on my MacBook Pro 13 (Late 2009) which does not support Windows 8. I've started installing Windows 7 via Bootcamp, then interupted the installation and pluged-in the Windows 8 Disk, and after formating the partition, I've installed Windows 8 64-Bit.
    Here is the problem. The Windows works fine, BUT after restart when I hold 'Alt' and choose EFI Boot (Windows 8's partition), Windows 8 starts loading but then suddenly there is a white flash and it restarts again. So after shut down or restart I cannot boot it.
    Do you think that this is because I do not have Bootcamp installed on the Windows 8?
    I've downloaded the supported software for Windows 8, but when I click setup.exe, it is giving me the following error:
    This version of Bootcamp is not intended for this computer model. I've been trying to install it for more than 78 hours, so I'll be extremely gratefull to whoever help me. Thank you in advance.
    P.S. Mac OS X partition boots fine.

    If it is really not possible, I get it. But there are plenty of people that are running Windows 8 on the same model, that is powerfull enough to run Win 8. I'm actually running it, but until shut down or restart . Can't I edit Info.plst file alternative for Windows 8 like I did to allow BootCamp to image burn my USB on my model? I mean my model is same as the next one. I can't see why the drivers for mid 2010, won''t work on mine...

    Since updating my iPhones, iPad and MacBook Pro I'm having problems with Calendars - I keep all the details of my work schedule on Calendars but since updating everything I am notified at 9 a.m. before each of my days off. Can someone please tell me how I can stop this? Also, how can I change that time (9a.m.) if I do want to be notified about something?
    Thanks.

    Do you have MMS turn on in Settings?
    Are you provisioned by your carrier to use MMS?
    Lastly, give your phone carrier a call, as MMS is a carrier feature.

  • How to reset the SMC on macbook pro 15" late 2009

    Does anyone know how to reset the SMC on the macbook pro 15" late 2009?
    The instructions listed at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1411 does not work.
    There are alot of posts in here about it, but I cant find any solutions on who to do this on the late 2009 model that have the build-in battery.

    Turn it off, connect the power supply then hold down shift/control/option while holding down the power button for 5 seconds - the power supply light will go off and on to show it's done.

    I AM NOT AN EXPERT.  I AM MAKING ASSUMPTIONS.  My issue, tech spec's and assumptions are listed below.
    MY ISSUE:
    My Rocketfish headphones work perfectly with my iMac but not with my Macbook Pro Retina.
    The Macbook Pro does recognize the device but when I try to connect, it gives me the following error message:
    "The device does not have the necessary services".
    TECH SPEC
    iMac has OS X 10.7.5
    Macbook Pro Retina has OS X 10.8.2
    MY ASSUMPTION
    If I upgrade to 10.8.2 I will not be able to use the headphones.
    Or
    The new Macbook Pro's are only functional with bluetooth headphones that have certain specs.

  • External superdrive  is not working on  macbook pro 15 inch(2011 model) with  mountain lion

    Hi,
    I try to install windows in my macbook pro via  bootcamp, but since I installed latest osx mountain lion on it, the external superdrive doesn't work anymore( even if on the startup mode, hardware can't detect it). superdrive works on my 2009-2010 mac mini server. help!

    The USB SuperDrive only works on Macs without SuperDrive, so it's not compatible with your Mac. You have to use your internal SuperDrive to install Windows

  • Why is my new Macbook Pro retina overheating? problems with new update

    Hello everyone i know this question has been asked but with the new updates and all i bought a brand new macbook pro 13 inch retina and i had it only for 3 days and its over heating like crazy i just do google searches and youtube thats it! and i feel the top of my keyboard so hot! and sometimes safari lags a whole bunch it usually freezes or doesnt load or the the page freezes when try to swip back on the pad.
    everything esle works fine its just safari
    is it the latest update or is it my mac?
    any advice or tips please

    Watching YouTube videos can really heat up your computer - that's just a given that everyone experiences. If I do nothing but watch YouTube videos, my MacBook Pro really heats up and the fans go up almost beyond the supposed 'high' of the fans (6202rpms).
    You have 14 days in which you can return the machine you purchased for another machine or a full refund. Since you've some time left, I would first download and install iStat Menus 4 for the trial period so you can let us know what your actual temps are and how fast your fan is running. Post that information and we'll be able to tell you if you're in 'normal' operating range.
    Call back,

  • MacBook Pro and Airport connectivty problems with 10.4.8

    Like others I have been having problems with Airport drop-outs since updating to 10.4.8. Using the shareware program (free trial) "Airport Monitor Utility" which displays various parameters from an Airport Base Station, it seems that although the signal level from the MBP is good, the AEBS is reporting high levels of errors being received. The same problem is not evident with either an old Pismo with a Motorola 54g card or my MDD (again with an add-in 54g card).
    Both the PC machines have no trouble conecting to the Airport network and they are also both running 10.4.8.
    The only way it seems I can run a reliable connection with the MBP at the moment is to run the AEBS without encryption but just using MAC address filtering and SSID disabled for security - far from ideal
    I am wondering if the high error rate may be a cause for the drop-outs when using encryption.
    Could others with MBPs, whether suffering this problem or not, please post the results of error rates if possible then we may be able to at least eliminate one potential cause for this problem.
    I've tried all the other suggested 'cures' and had no success....

    Despite the title of the article, the included solution may rid you of AirPort wavering in and out of contact with the base station. It did that for me.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304482
    However, I was then left with the situation that is the title of the article! Ironic:) My preferences for a particular network would no longer stick, and AirPort was self-assigning an unusable IP address.

  • MacBook Pro 17" late 2009 - Black screen on boot, not even a grey screen

    Got a monstrous problem.
    Started up my MacBook Pro (bought in Feb. This year, core 2 duo 2.88GHz/4 Gb RAM - basically the top specced model.)
    Booted up today, no grey start-up screen. No screen at all. Yet I can still log into Snow Leopard, but again no screen. Rebooted into boot camp, heard windows start. Managed to log in again no screen. Volume controls, keyboard illumination work. Just a black screen.
    I have tried resetting PRAM, etc. with no success. Cannot use hardware test as the screen simply does not start.
    Any ideas before I throw the effing thing from a 5th floor window in frustration?
    Is this the Nvidia problem other folk have experienced?
    I am tempted to ask for a new machine spending 2 months on and off with my previous MacBook Pro in and out of repair if this is a hardware problem that has been fixed in recent Macs.
    Regards,
    J

    I had the same problem just now. My 15" MBP (6.2). I followed the following steps and it worked for me. I used another Mac in my house to use screen sharing to accomplish these things:
    1) access the /private/var/vm/ directory on the nonworking computer from the working computer. This is invisble so you will have to press cmdshiftg in the finder and go to /volumes/YOURHARDDISKNAME/private/var/vm to get there or use an application that lets you view invisble folders like PathFinder.
    2) delete the sleepimage file
    3) delete the /system/library/extensions.mkext file
    4) eject the drive (drag to the trash)
    5) press the power button to turn off the non working computer
    6) turn the nonworking computer back on normally(cross your fingers) then if it works,
    7) open up the the terminal.app in /applications/utilities
    8) type sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0
    9) make sure there is no sleepimage file again
    That worked for me...hope it helps for you!

  • Recently upgraded my macbook pro 13 late 2009 to an ssd but only getting a quarter of the speed

    Hi, i recently upgraded my macbook pro 13 inch to a OCZ VERTEX 3 240gb ssd. The drive is supposed to be able to have write speeds of 500mb/s and read speeds of up to 550 mb/s but when i run a speed test on the disk im only getting a max write speed of around 105 mb/s, and read speed of 137mb/s ish, now the negotiated speed is only 1.5gb/s I have trim enabled, and i have tried changing the link speed but with no luck. The drive is rated for 6gb/s also. The drive is not in the hard drive bay because my hard drive cable is broken, i have it in the optical bay right now, could someone please help me or tell me how to make the drive at least go up to sata 3 speeds,

    The 2009 MBPs were built with a very cheaply made HDD to LB cable. So I bet if you change that cable you will see more speed from that SSD.

  • MacBook Pro "13 2010 several problems with functionality.

    I've had my computer for about a year now and I've been having many problems since about 3 months after I upgraded to Mavericks. The machine would completely freeze, glitch, make crackling sounds that would persist until I forcefully shut the machine down by holding the power button for several seconds. This is one of the many problems I have with it. When I am typing a paper, or I'm watching a video, the machine's display will change to a solid color at random. After this, I reboot the machine and it gives me cpu caller 0 panic errors. It also will turn itself off and beep several times until I hold the power button down. I've done research and know that these are kernel panics, but I have no idea what causes this. I took it in to the genius bar at my local Apple Store, the guy named Tucker ran the diagnostics on my machine and he told me that the tests came back negative for issues and he then went to check the logs and saw that I had several kernel panic errors. He began to tell me that the 0 in the panics meant that they were software related and insisted that they wipe the cache to see if would help, and then if that didn't work then they offered to wipe it completely and reinstall Mavericks. They did so, and not even a day later the machine began to do the same things again with the solid screen colors, beeping, cpu caller 0's, and the crackling sound and screen rainbows. Even after updating to Yosemite, the problems still persist.
    Can anyone please help me? I don't know what more I can do.

    Here is the most up to date panic report.

  • MacBook Pro 13" Early 2011 - External display issues

    I have an early 2011 MacBook Pro 13" (2.7GHz version) that I am using with an external non-Apple display.  I am having issues when MBP goes to sleep or trys to sleep the display.  The external display exibits one of a number of problems:  goes dark but does not power off the backlight or freezes up and requires being powered off then back on.  My display is an ASUS VW266H but it seems like this problem, or other similar problems, are happening with other non-Apple displays.
    In calling Apple tech support of 5/27/11 they indicated that this is a known bug and they are working on a fix.  There was software update released 5/4/11 to  "improve graphics stability, address issues with external display" named MacBook Pro Software Update 1.4 (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1382).  I downloaded this and applied it but it made no difference.
    I experienced these problems with three different video adapters:  Apple's own mini DP to DVI, Belkin mini DP to HDMI and another brand of mini DP to HDMI also sold by the Apple store.
    So the questions are:
    1) Will Apple release another updated to address this incompatability or are they done with the issue given that they released the update mentioned above?
    2) Has anyone compiled a list of monitors that are know to work with these most recent MacBook Pros (the early 2011 versions with the Thunderbolt/mini DP combined ports)?
    If you have used the MacBook Pro 13" early 2011 with an external monitor please respond to this post with your experiences so we can all know what works.

    With my new 2011 13" MBP I'm having no latency issues using my '08 Samsung SyncMaster 2253BW DVI (digital) monitor. Sleep function awakens fine, goes to sleep 3-4 sec.
    I'm using a cheapie model Syba MDP to DVI connector; here on Amazon:
