MacBook Pro mid 2010 - iMac late 2012 in target mode?

Can I connect a MacBook Pro mid 2010 with Mini Display Port with a late 1012 iMac in target mode? Thanks.

A 2010 MBP does not support Thunderbolt technology so that is not an avenue for you. A Fire wire with one of these adapters should enable you to connect the two devices:

MacBook Pro (Mid 2010) will only boot in safe mode.

I've been unable to boot my MacBook Pro normally. It will boot in safe mode, and, until today, I was able to get a normal startup after resetting both PRAM and SMC. Running "Repair Disk" on the startup disk did not reveal any problems. I have also done a recovery boot to reinstall OS (10.9.1), which did not help either, though I did not wipe the hard disc first (I did back it up).
Had to take it to Apple back in January when the screen started acting funny, i.e. getting static-y and going blank for seconds at a time but then coming back. Their tests showed that there were no hardware problems, and the screen issue was eventually resolved by doing a PRAM reset. About 14 months ago, I had the logic board replaced.
Also, I'm not sure if this is related, but when I have been able to boot normally, if I quit Google Chrome, the machine will freeze completely.
Ran EtreCheck; here's the info from that:

Any ideas are much appreciated!

First try doing a Software Update.
Then restart and see if that works.
If not then I would update Java.
Restart and see if that works.
If not then delete the following plist items.
[invalid] com.oracle.java.Helper-Tool.plist
[invalid] com.oracle.java.Java-Updater.plist
Should find these in:
/Macintosh HD/Library/LaunchAgents
/Macintosh HD/Library/LaunchDaemons
Now restart & see if that works.
If that doesn't work try deleting everything in:
/Macintosh HD/Library/StartupItems
Hope this helps.

TS4088 why is there a limit on 3 years? it should be all the MacBook Pro mid 2010 with symptoms, there should get their logic board changed for free, mine mac is 3 month late and i had this problem for over a year, but i first saw this article today :(

Hey Clintonfrombirmingham
I called Apple technical support in Denmark, but with no positive reply.
She couldn't do anything, and said that They had sent a recall Email about the problem and with their offer to repair the Macbook Pro, but I'd never recieved an Email about the problem. She wasn't in power to make an exception. It can't be true that i paid a lot of money, for a product that can't barely stand on its own feets, Apple didn't tell me that the product I was about to buy, would restart every 5 minute. and now when they know the problem, they wont repair it? it just don't make sense for me. If a car seller discovers that all the brakes in a car he had sold, will crash after some years he will call all the cars back to repair no mater what. i just don't understand how Apple will make good service for their custumers, by extending the warranty from 2 to 3 years, but wont take the computers there is a little bit to old, 4 months will make the difference. i can't believe it.
What can i do now?
best regards Oskar

HT3924 How would this apply if you have a MacBook Pro Retina, 13-inch, Late 2012?

How could I use my iMac 27" Mid 2010 as an external monitor for my MacBook Pro Retina, 13-inch, Late 2012?
I have an HDMI to HDMI but nothing happens.

You use Target Display Mode via Thunderbolt cable.

Target Display Mode 2009 & 2010 iMacs
Target Display Mode 2011 & Later iMacs
iMac (Mid 2011)- Target Display Mode does not work with Mini DisplayPort cable

Does my macbook pro mid 2010 work with handoff?

My macbook pro has airdrop which only worked once with my iPad air, now nether my macbook pro or my iPad air see one another, and handoff does that work with my macbook pro mid 2010?
Thanks

AIrDrop is different. Airdrop between Macs works with older Macs:
System Requirements
To see if your Mac works with AirDrop, make sure you’re in the Finder by clicking the desktop (the background area of your screen), or by clicking the Finder icon in the Dock. Then, check to see if AirDrop is listed as an option in the Go menu. If you don't see AirDrop listed, your Mac doesn't support this feature.
In order to transfer files between a Mac and and an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch
your iOS device needs to include a lightning connector
your iOS device needs iOS 7 or later installed
your Mac needs to be a 2012 or later model with OS X Yosemite installed
Your Mac and iOS device both need bluetooth and Wi-Fi turned on. You do not have to be connected to a specific Wi-Fi network.
To transfer files between two Mac computers, you need the Mac models listed below with Wi-Fi turned on and OS X Lion or later installed.
MacBook Pro (Late 2008 or newer)*
MacBook Air (Late 2010 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 or newer)*
iMac (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Mini (Mid 2010 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2009 with AirPort Extreme card, or Mid 2010)
Mac Basics: AirDrop lets you send files from your Mac to nearby Macs and iOS devices - Apple Support
Handoff/continuity requires:
Handoff and Instant Hotspot
Handoff and Instant Hotspot are supported by the following Mac models, and require OS X Yosemite:
MacBook Air (Mid 2012 and later)
MacBook Pro (Mid 2012 and later)
iMac (Late 2012 and later)
Mac mini (Late 2012 and later)
Mac Pro (Late 2013)
Handoff is supported by the following iOS devices and requires iOS 8. Instant Hotspot requires one of these iPhone or iPad devices with cellular connectivity and iOS 8.1. Instant Hotspot also requires Personal Hotspot service through your carrier.
iPhone 5 or later
iPhone 4s (sharing iPhone calls only)
iPad (4th generation), iPad Air, iPad Air 2
iPad mini, iPad mini with Retina display, iPad mini 3
iPod touch (5th generation)

Just installed Mountain Lion Latest Version on MacBook Pro Mid 2010

I want to make sure, that after i spend so much money on a high end mac book pro in December of 2010, that now i can't even use the feature of apple tv mirror because my lap top has to be early 2011 or later. Please confirm Apple Gurus so that i can be sure that im didn't do anything wrong. I have the latest Apple Tv but my MacBook Pro 17 was purchased in dec. 2010. which makes it a macbook pro mid 2010. If the case is i can't utilize the mirror for my desktop to show in apple tv, then why does it work with itunes and every other device? so weird, plus i need to make sure i've done all the troubleshooting possible so then i go ahead to the next step and buy the USB to HDMI Cable that way i can do it the old way since my mac book pro high end is now considered old. So dissapointed.

Look at this link. It indicates that a third party application will allow you to use it:

What's up with the screw job on the Airplay mirroring? Macbook Pro (mid 2010) too old to have feature included in Mountain upgrade? Bull!

what's up with the screw job on the Airplay mirroring? Macbook Pro (mid 2010) too old to have feature included in Mountain upgrade? Bull!

Please read:
http://arstechnica.com/apple/2012/07/mountain-lion-airplay-mirroring-v-airparrot -fight/
Mountain Lion's integrated AirPlay mirroring support only works with the following Mac models:
iMac—Mid 2011 or newer
Mac mini—Mid 2011 or newer
MacBook Air—Mid 2011 or newer
MacBook Pro—Early 2011 or newer
If your Mac isn't on that list, your won't ever see an AirPlay option in Mountain Lion's menubar.
What separates these Macs from other Mountain Lion-compatible machines is that these are the only models that have support for Intel's QuickSync technology. What confirmed this requirement for me was the fact that my Retina MacBook Pro switched to integrated Intel HD4000 graphics even when otherwise running on the discrete NVIDIA GT 650M GPU. No matter what you are doing or what resolution you are running, AirPlay Mirroring in Mountain Lion requires an integrated Intel HD3000 or HD4000 graphics processor and its QuickSync technology to work, full stop.

HT201335 could my macbook pro mid 2010 could do mirroring

could my macbook pro mid 2010 could do mirroring

Welcome to the Apple Community.
AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better 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). You can see which Mac you have and which operating system you are using by selecting 'About this Mac' from the Apple menu in the top left corner of your Mac and selecting the 'More Info' button.

The update could have exposed this hardware issue
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088
However, I have noticed the same problem on my Mid 2012 Retina MBP when I have it plugged into my external display so it may be a software issue as well.
Anyways you should probably try and get it fixed by Apple first if your laptop was bought within 3 years ago.

Just upgrade my MacBook Pro Mid 2010 to Mountain Lion and tried to connect with Apple TV 3th gen. through Airplay and couldn't mirrorring video on my LG Smart TV screen. Just paid US 99.00 for Apple TV plus US 19.99 to Mountain Lion for nothing @?$%

It is stated that mirroring requires recent hardware (2011 or later)

BootCamp 5.0 error on 13" MacBook Pro Mid-2010: "Installation Error. Boot Camp x64 is unsupported on this computer model"

Installing Boot Camp 5.0.5033 (downloadable at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1638) on Windows 8 x64 on 13” MacBook Pro Mid-2010 using BootCamp\setup.exe, I get the following message: “Installation Error. Boot Camp x64 is unsupported on this computer model”.
According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634, Windows 8 x64 is not supported by Boot Camp 5 on 13” MacBook Pro Mid-2010 .
Previous version, Boot Camp 4.0, causes bluescreens on Windows 8 (https://discussions.apple.com/message/20131524#20131524).
Fortunately, it might be still possible to employ updated Boot Camp by launching “msiexec /i BootCamp.msi” from BootCamp\Drivers\Apple folder using administrative command prompt (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc947813%28v=WS.10%29.aspx).
However, new Boot Camp 5.0.5033 does not contain all the drivers for 13” MacBook Pro Mid-2010. E.g. driver for NVIDIA nForce System Management Controller (labeled Other devices/Coprocessor in Control Panel) and NVIDIA nForce PCI Systems Management (labeled Other devices/SM Bus Controller in Control Panel) must be obtained at Drivers\NVidia\NVidiaChipset64 in older Boot Camp 4.0 (downloadable at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1634)
According to Microsoft (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/system-requirements), the MacBook Pro config (Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 2.4GHz, 4GB RAM) exceeds Windows 8 x64 hardware requirements. Windows Experience Index for this laptop is approx. 5.1 (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/what-windows-experience-index).
Does anybody know, is there any technical reason why Windows 8 x64 is not supported by Boot Camp 5 on 13” MBP Mid-2010?
Is there a specific hardware/firmware deficiency in this MacBook model, incompatible with Win8? Maybe NVIDIA refused to provide Win8-compatible drivers for its chipset components (GeForce 320M graphics card though is still supported by latest notebook drivers available at www.geforce.com)?

Thanks for the detailed explanation! If MacBook supports AHCI/SATA only in native “UEFI mode”, while reverting back to PATA/IDE in legacy “BIOS mode”, then it could make perfect sense to use UEFI to make sure that technology like Native Command Queuing (NCQ) is employed, as it may give noticeable performance improvements for certain operations: www.happysysadm.com/2012/12/intel-g530-nas-performance-part-3.html. I wonder how do you get Windows 8 x64 with EFI bootloader installed on MacBook?
Simply choosing EFI Boot (“Some EFI platforms support both UEFI and BIOS firmware. On some of those systems, it is not always clear if the default DVD boot option is an EFI or BIOS boot option. On these systems, using the EFI shell command may be required. If you do not specifically start Windows Setup by using the EFI boot entry, the default firmware boot entry for BIOS may be used. If Windows Setup starts in BIOS mode on a combined EFI/BIOS system, the ESP and MSR partitions are not created.”) from Win8 x64 DVD when installing on blank HDD would yield “The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error. Windows installation cannot proceed" message. Also, if the hard drive was not in SATA mode during Windows installation, registry tweaking may be required before switching from PATA to SATA. Do you do registry tweaking and EFI bootloader configuration manually after a copy of Windows was installed in its dedicated partition in a regular way?

Need OS disk for macbook pro mid 2010

The hardest part of holding on is letting go. This is how I feel about my MacBook pro mid 2010 edition. I have been having issues with it so I neglected it for some time. I put in a new hard drive and then installed Yosemite. It runs a little slow but works great for Netflix and other non required uses. The problem I am having is that the processor pegs at 100% randomly. I don't see anything under the monitor using the cpu so I am wondering if I have a hardware issue. When I hold down the D key at bootup I thought it would start diagnostics but it doesn't. My research tells me I need to install the original os but I can't find the disk.
Thoughts?

Niel,
See if you can help this person: MacBook Pro late 2011 won't start up.

My MacBook Pro mid 2010 was upgraded to mountain lion os x and then my wifi started saying no hardware installed

Hello Harrisonhcue,
I would be concerned too if I was getting the message "no hardware installed" when trying to use Wi-Fi on my MacBook Pro. For a message like this, I recommend resetting your System Management Controller (SMC) and NVRAM.
Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own
Note: Portable computers that have a battery you should not remove on your own include MacBook Pro (Early 2009) and later, all models of MacBook Air, and MacBook (Late 2009).
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.
You can find the full article here:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

Macbook pro mid 2010 13.3 inch - battery charging

I have a Macbook Pro mid 2010, 13.3 inches.
The battery stopped charging, I see the problem was the dc MagSafe. Replaced it, now only connects the laptop (I've tried with another battery and the problem persists, my battery works and usually carries another laptop) and work with it plugged in but not charging the battery.
What should be the problem? Agurado suggestions ... I've tried the SMC, I tried to put another battery, etc etc, and the problem persists.
I wish I could help.

Open System Profiler>Power and post this from your MBP:
(make certain that your charger is connected?
Also run an Apple Hardware Test:

Apple Unibody 13.3" MacBook Pro (Mid-2010): 4GB vs. 8GB DDR3 1066MHz Memory (RAM).

Apple Unibody 13.3" MacBook Pro (Mid-2010): 4GB vs. 8GB DDR3 1066MHz Memory (RAM).
1. About my Mac.
     Processor: Intel® Core 2 Duo (2.66GHz)
     Memory (RAM): 4.00GB DDR3 1066MHz (2 x 2.00GB)
     Hard Drive: 320GB 5400RPM (Apple Stock HD)
     Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 320M (256MB)
     Operating System: Mac OS X Lion (10.7.1)
2. My concerns/questions
     For quite some time now, I've been planning to upgrade the memory (RAM) of my MacBook Pro from 4.00GB (Apple Stock) to 8.00GB. In terms of "FASTER BOOT TIMES, IMPROVED RESPONSIVENESS (OPENING and CLOSING PROGRAMS, FILES & ETC.), SMOOTHER GRAPHICS, ABILITY TO OPEN MORE PROGRAMS SIMULTANEOUSLY AND OVERALL IMPROVEMENT IN PERFORMANCE", does it really make a BIG difference?
     If ever I am going to pursue this upgrade, should I let Apple do the upgrade or buy the parts and do it myself?
     If I am going to buy the parts and install it myself, what brand do you recommend? Crucial, Kingston, OWC & etc.?
     Why does Apple charge so much for memory (RAM) upgrades? Is the memory module they are using any special compared to the ones we can find in Amazon (Crucial, Kingston, OWC & etc.)?
Thanks for helping me out with my concerns.

I recommend OWC RAM because it's reasonably priced and OWC's support is great if you ever need it. I recommend installing the RAM yourself because it's dead simple. There is no good reason for anyone ever to pay Apple's prices for RAM.
I don't think you will see faster boot times with more RAM, but that shouldn't be a concern, because there's seldom any need to shut down or restart a MBP. Just put it to sleep when you aren't using it, unless you won't use it again for more than two or three days. Opening and closing programs won't benefit significantly from more RAM either, but when running multiple large programs at once, you will see a significant improvement in their performance. It's well worth the small investment ($65) to upgrade from 4GB to 8GB.
