Whould reinstalling the operating system fix, slowness of the macbook pr

It's best to describe the problem, in as much detail as possible, rather than your conclusions as to what's causing it or how it should be solved.

  • Can anyone offer some advice i am looking to upgrade the OS system on one of my macbook pro's, currently running os10.4.11, I would like to upgrade to OS10.5? how would I go about this, and is there a cost, for what is an old operating system now?

    Since your Mac probably came with 10.4, there is no longer a way to get 10.5 Leopard install media. IF it has the requirements, you may be able to upgrade to 10.6 Snow Leopard by buying the boxed install media at the Apple Store for $30.

  • The Operating System returned Error 27(The drive cannot find the sector requested.)

    On a Windows 2008 R2 server running SQL 2008 Standard on a Raid 5, when performing a backup on the databases via copy to another local drive I receive and The operating system returned error 27(The drive cannot find the sector requested.) to SQL Server during
    a write at offset 0x0000002fd204000 in the file F:\SQLDATA\Email_Images.mdf.   The server is a HP DL380p Gen8.  I've contacted HP thinking this was a Hardware issue but HP ensure me its not and to contract Microsoft support.

    Hi,
    Unfortunately, the available information is not enough to have a clear view of the occurred behavior. Please offer us what backup method you are using, did you want to backup
    the data to the CSV, the origional error you have got.
    1. The best method would be to have separate disk drive for each cluster SQL instance and add the disk to the specific SQL group and add it to the dependency of the SQL resource.
    There would be less overhead with this process other than having to create two disks, one of each instance
    2. You could consider creating a file sharing resource on cluster and add the backup disk to this resource group and use it to back up the databases of both the instances
    to single disk. The down side of this method would be, all the databases backups will fail if the fileshare resource goes down. You cannot use GUI to take the backup, need additional setup/maintenance for the fileshare resource group

    I bought a second hand Macbook Pro and colorful stud
    Only after a few months I decided to reformat it
    Bad movie started here I did not get it with a disc and I come to install the operating system
    And he asks the name of Apple's user ID financed had been bought Lion OS Now
       And who sold me does not answer then I found the phone number of his mother
    She said he lived in USA and paid him more than the lion version of the MacBook and now I can not install Lion
    And I'm not from USA

    Unless you go back to the original owner, yes you need to pay for it again.
    You're entitled to the OS that shipped with the device from Apple, but if you don't have that media there's nothing you can really do.  If the system originally shipped with 10.7 or 10.8 then when you boot it to Internet Recovery, it will automatically offer you that OS version (as the serial # is registered with Apple).  If it shipped with an older OS, then you need to enter the Apple ID that purchased 10.7 or 10.8.  You didn't purchase it so that's not you.
    The options you have are to buy Lion for $29 US (I don't know the price in Palestine), or Mountain Lion for $19 US (don't know the price in Palestine either), and install from scratch.
    And it's a good idea to know you have restore media before you reformat your machine.

  • I am unable to download the programs onto my laptop. I keep getting a message that says the operating system no longer supports the programs.

    I need help, i am not sure what operating system needs to be installed. I have a mac and the operating system is up to date.

    Creative Cloud programs are not spec'd to work with Mac OS X 10.6.8.  You would have to upgrade to at least version 10.7.  You should check the system requirements for all of the programs you wish to install to see what the minimum is that would cover all of them.  Just Google "InDesign system requirements" to find them for InDesign, and repeat for the other programs using their names instead of InDesign.

  • Is the operating system installation specific to the particular machine?

    If I move the os harddrive (which is leopard 10.5.1 + all applications) into a new machine, would it work? Both are intel machines and I'm trying to avoid not only downtime in setting it up but also this setup is very stable....BUT I don't want to do this if the installation is specific to the machine on which it is installed and doing it this way would cause me more headaches than time. Thanks
    Message was edited by: GRS

    It depends. All new Macs come with a set of Software Restore discs. The version of OS X on the discs is often specific to that model - a special build. The retail version sold by Apple may contain a build that does not work on machines made after the retail version was released. For example, the 10.5 version of Leopard released last October will not work on the 2008 models because the new models require a later build (or even a later version.) The Early 2008 Mac Pros are delivered with a version of 10.5.1 that is not the same as the version installed by the 10.5.1 standalone updater.
    It's reasonable to assume that whatever version of the operating system is on the gray labeled discs that come with a Mac, it is not compatible with a different Mac model.
    Furthermore, if you install any version of OS X on one computer you cannot install that same version on another Mac at the same time without violating the license agreement unless you have either a Family Pak 5 machine license or a site license.

  • Changing idioms of the operative system

    Can I change the operative system language running on my macbook pro?If yes, please tell me the steps

    In the language preferences, move your preferred language to the top of the list and logout/login or restart.  If your language is not on the list, use the plus button and then Add to add it to the list and then move it to the top.
    The operative system language is restricted to one of the 33 mentioned in the tech specs:

  • Updating the operating system

    I haven't updated my operating system since I purchased my macbook pro in 2009.  I am now having issues with safari and pages not loading and my mac running slow.  Do you think I just need to buy the next system update?  Would that be snow leopard that I need?

    You can get a Snow Leopard disk from the Apple online store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    It is worth the upgrade.  It has security features that Leopard does not and on the whole is more efficient.
    How ever that is probably not going to be a full cure.  Look at this tip for some guidance:

    Hi Praveen,
    >>Can anyone please give me the operating system command to create the zip file in reciever side.
    Why OS commands and not the PayloadZipModule?
    If you need OS commands check this blog of Michal /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2007/02/08/xipi-command-line-sample-functions
    Update
    You can try this command too
    cmd /C "jar cMf \\<folderpath>test1.zip \\<folderpath>*.*"

  • Why does my computer look the same? I reinstalled the operating system.

    My mid-2012 Macbook Air has been running a bit slow, and I've had problems with other things, too. So I decided to reinstall the operating system and start from scratch.
    But after restarting my computer in rescue mode, everything is the same. I backed up my documents and photos and fully expected my computer to look like it did when it was brand new. So this is very confusing for me.
    I clicked the button for reinstall. Why wasn't everything wiped clean?
    Also, the fan is running loud since the install. It's been maybe seven minutes. Why would that be happening?
    Thanks.

    Thank you for the help. Much appreciated.
    The only confusing part was not quite knowing which option to select for the erase. Three different options appear in the left sidebar. One said something like Mac Hardware, so after some hesitation I chose that one. I wish there was a blurb that helped people understand what these are, in case they end up chosing the wrong one and permanently damaging their computer.
    But it looks like I chose the right one, thank goodness. My computer is noticeably faster now because of the erase and reinstall.
    Cheers.
