15 Macbook pro late 2011 - Mountain Lion - Air Play

I have upgraded to mountain lion on my macbook pro 15 late 2011 that i purchased on November of 2011. i get this error message when I attempt to utilize airplay. An error occurred (-6722) while connecting to the AirPlay device “Apple TV”. Any idea why this is happening?

wow.. I think I have solved my own issue.... I was using my apple tv, watching a movie, when I tried the airplay button on the top menu bar of my mac book; however, when i'm not watching a movie the airplay works just fine.
I was worried because in the ratings of the mountian lion app everyone is up in arms about airplay and mountian lion. maybe my computer is within the range that allows it to work correctly.
i'll leave this post here just in case someone else happens accross that error message.

MacBook Pro (Late 2011) calibration problem

Hi,
I have tried to calibrate the monitor of my MacBook Pro (Late 2011, Mountain Lion OS) with the Spyder4Express, but the monitor has a yellow cast after the calibration. I've verified the yellow cast by comparing my monitor with other calibrated monitors and with some photos printed with calibrated printers. Moreover, I have calibrated the monitor of another MacBook Pro with the same Spyder4Express and the result is different from mine, i.e. the same photo is displayed with different tones on the two monitors of the two MacBooks.
As calibration parameters of the Spyder4Express I have selected
Gamut = Normal Gamut
Backlight = White LED
and set LCD Native flag in the Preferences Panel.
Any suggestions to solve this issue? I suspect that the graphic accelerator (Intel HD 3000) of my MacBook Pro doesn't support the calibration. Someone else had the same problem?
Regards,
Luigi

MacBook Pro 8,2 (Late 2011), Mountain Lion thunderbolt issue

Hi!
Since my upgrade to OS X 10.8.1 (Mountain Lion) yesterday the ports on the back o my 27 " thunderbolt display no longer seems to function?
I can hook up my keyboard directly to my MacBook Pro (Late 2011, 8,2) and it works just fine, and it was working from the thunderbolt display until my update.
So, I'm assuming that this is a problem with Mountain Lion. Is there anything that I can do?
Thanks!

Will OS Mountain Lion slow down my MacBook Pro (Late 2011) running 10.7.5?

I have a Macbook Pro (Late 2011) that is currently running OS Lion 10.7.5. I was just wondering if updating to OS Mountain Lion would slow it down in terms of performance, or if it will have any other bugs on my MacBook?
PS. When updating to a different OS, do I have to back up my files to like a hard drive or something?

When updating to a different OS, do I have to back up my files to like a hard drive or something?
A back up is a precaution that you should always have, not just when installing an update to the OS. Its purpose is no different from the seat belt you wear when you drive. Use it all the time, and hope it will never be really necessary.

Does airplay mirroring work on MacBook Pro late 2011 ( Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5)?

Hi guys,
I would like to use airplay mirroring on apple tv (3rd generation) with my macbook pro late 2011, unfortunately the airplay option does not appear in the display preferences (see screenshot below). Did someone have this problem before? Please advise!
Thank you!

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404 Your computer is compatible with AirPlay Mirroring, but you have to upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion to get AirPlay Mirroring.
Make a Time Machine backup and/or a clone with Carbon Copy Cloner, open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion. When the download finishes, the installer will appear, so follow the steps to upgrade. To turn on AirPlay Mirroring, select the AirPlay icon in the menu bar or open System Preferences > Displays

MacBook pro late 2011 i7 8GB 750GB MAC OSX Lion freezes on wake up

Hi,
My MacBook pro late 2011 i7 8GB 750GB MAC OSX Lion (up to date) 1 week old freezes on wake up.
Plugged on power or not, same issues.
No apps running.
When it goes to sleep itself i wake it up it freezes for few seconds
When i put it to sleep mode same issue.
With the lid same issue...
I already try setting up the sleep mode from 3 to 0 with terminal command it didn't work.
Can it be an hardware issue ?
Any ideas ?

Dear TheSmokeMonster, Dear all MacBook pro 13'' late 2011 users,
Here is the update.
As TheSmokeMonster mentionned (above) they asked me to reinstall MAC OSX Lion by shutting down the computer and holding cmd + R while switching it off. Then you choose the language and you are good to go for a looooonngg 4GB download (it took me 8hours yeah chinese ADSL :-/ )
Lion reinstalled itself automatically and restarted. - it did not solve the issue.
I called Apple Care again and we try to run the hardware diagnostic by restarting the computer and holding D. FYI do not try it as this command does not work on the new version of macbook pro.
Here is the intersting part! As the Apple Care already did everything they could to help me. We booked an appointment the my local Apple Store in Shanghai (a real one )
The Genius remake again the SMC and PRAM reset - same issues and he also tried to boot Lion from his own external hard drive - Same issues. So we started to think that it was a Hardware problem.
We tried another MBP 13'' late 2011 (last hardware update) in the shop to see if it works properly and it DOESN'T!
Yeah you heard me. I have been trying more than 10 MBP 13'' (2.4Ghz 4GB and 2.8Ghz 4GB) put them asleep and they all freeze on wake up!! it also does it on Mac book air 13'' it seems to be a global issue on all the new 13'' machines. A compatibility problem between Lion and the new hardware architecture of the 13'' ? just my guess.
Anyway FYI this issue doesn't occur on MBP 15 and 17"
I was just amazed by this global problem so was the genuis. We could not find any solutions cause even a replacement one will have the same problem. They told me i could change for a 15" but i had to go back to the Apple shop where i bought it which is 2000Kms away not really convenient So i file the cas and i took my MBP 13'' back with me.
They will contact me later for further explanation.
To be continued.

Macbook pro late 2011 is on Mac OS X v10.7 Lion and it is using lot of RAM

Macbook pro late 2011 is on Mac OS X v10.7 Lion and it is using lot of RAM...when I turn on after 2minutes it freezes and do not repond and system prefrences also not working...plz help me....I don,t have mac os disc
I have tried safe mode boot, NVRAM and PRAM reset but no luck...

First, try a Safe Mode boot.
Startup your Mac in Safe Mode
A Safe Mode boot takes a longer than a normal boot so be patient.
Once you are in Safe Mode, click Restart from your Apple () menu.
If that didn't help, reintall OS X..
Restart your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys so you can access the built-in utilities in OS X Recovery

Macbook Pro Late 2011 Intel VT

Hi everybody,
I'm in front of a problem.
I have a macbook pro late 2011 (MacBookPro8,2) , cpu is Intel Core I7 2,2 Ghz.
I've installed the latest parallel desktop 7 and the lastest vmware fusion on OSX Mountain Lion (10.8).
Into a virtual machine, i've installed microsoft windows 2008 R2 in both parallel and vmware, and i would like to add the hyper-v role, but i receive this error message :
The processor on this computer is not compatible with Hyper-V. To install this role, the processor must have a supported version of hardware-assisted virtualization, and this feature must be turned on in the BIOS.
I'm pretty sure that my CPU is Intel VT compatible.
I've restored the laptop via a timemachine with OSX 10.7.4, but it's still the same problems.
My system is fully updated, but i remember that i played some times ago with reefit, but i dn't know if it matters.
Anyone here successfully enabled VT on the macbook pro late 2011 and could help me ?
Thanks in advance.
NB: I've also tried to install Citrix XenServer, and i've also received a warning that my system isn't VT compatible, but i'm sure it's.

Thank you very much for your fast answer
BTW, according to parallel and vmware, VT is implemented and compatible, but on my laptop, it seems not.
I tried only with parallel desktop 7 installed, but same problem, i'm unable to add hyper-v role to my virtual machine.

I have a MacBook Pro 2012 running Mountain Lion 10.7.5 and the mirroring icon isn't showing up to stream to Apple TV

I have a MacBook Pro 2012 running Mountain Lion 10.7.5. I've been trying to get the mirroring icon to show up in the bar but no dice. Any tips? I've gone into System Preferences -> Display and there is no option to turn on mirroring.

Welcome to the Apple Community maricespieces.
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.

Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

MacBook Pro Late 2011 10.7.5 won't detect external monitor

Hello,
I have a Macbook Pro Late 2011 13" Running OSX Lion 10.7.5. It won't flash blue at ALL when connected to an external display. Under system report, it shows that the "Link Status" is 7. The same setup works with another MacBook Pro Mid 2009 15 inch. I am under AppleCare, should I take it in? Weird. All firmware updates are completed, no "Air Display" type programs are installed currently, and gfxcardstatus is also installed and doesn't really help.

Looks like a problem with the GPU (possibly the screen, but it looks more as if it's the GPU). If I were you, I'd take your machine into your local Apple Store or an AASP and have it diagnosed.

Macbook Pro (Late 2011) Won't read game

My Macbook Pro (Late 2011) plays dvds (I used Family guy to test) but will not read the disk for Football Manager 2015 despite it being Mac compatible. THe disk itself runs on PC so isn't faulty. Any thoughts?
Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB
Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63b)

Thanks, OrangeMarlin. Lots to learn about in land of the Macs.
Point taken on the driver. The reason I'm hesitant to assume it's power related is because everything else works. Here is a short list of other devices I've used it for in the week or so I've owned this machine:
iPad (connected fine and charged iPad to full)
Seagate GoFlex (connects fine, but this device also uses wall power)
Samsung Spinpoint HDD (in an aluminum Rosewill enclosure, also uses wall power)
iPod Classic (fifth gen, 30GB), also charges
Samsung Captivate (Android phone), charges
I got this machine from the Apple store last week, when I swapped out my original purchase MBP due to a screen defect. I asked them to run a gamet of tests to ensure everything OK, and they complied (at least claimed to). I assume if I brought it back, with the drive, they would be able to test for a power issue, correct?
Thanks again.

Macbook Pro (Late-2011) Grey Cross during Install

Hello.
MacBook Pro (Late-2011) version. Just installed a new Intel 520 Series 480 GB SSD drive to replace the 750GB drive that was in it.
Created a bootable USB Drive with Mountain Lion from the App Store (8GB SanDisk Ultra). When I try and boot from the drive, after about 45 seconds I get a grey crossout circle and it doesn't move from there.
I've used the same method of creating a bootable install drive before when I did a fresh install on the same computer of Mountain Lion, and on my Mac Mini.
So, is it the SSD that's causing the issue, or do I have a bad image?

This problem is from a faulty restore of the installer to the USB thumb drive. Try fully repartitioning it with Disk Utility and then try the restoration again. To repartition, select the drive device in Disk Utility, and then use the Partition tab and select "1 Partition" from the drop-down menu. Then click "Options" and ensure GUID is the partition scheme. Apply the changes, and try restoring the installer to the drive again.
