  • OWC 120GB Mercury Extreme Pro 6G SSD Solid State Drive Best SSD for a Mac?

    ive read that OWC is the best for mac. Is this true. what is your recommendations for a SSD for an 08' Macbook

    Yes. Your model has a SATA II bus that only supports up to 3 Gb/s drive interfaces. Thus, there is no point in spending more for a SATA III drive. If you expect you will soon want to move the SSD into a new model that does support the faster interface, then be sure the 6G model is downward compatible with the 3G bus. Most, but not all 6G SSDs are, so it's best to ask first.

  • Why the OWC 960GB Mercury Accelsior_E2 does not show in Disk Utilty ?

    i try to mac pro 3.1 and 4.1
    and both of them can not show in Disk Utilty, but i can seen in report

    Have you tried using Disk Utlitiy to format it as Mac OS Journaled. I have an OWC SSD (260 gig) installed and it  showed up fine once I formatted it. I had to use it for a while as my startup disk because I was transferring stuff from my older Mac Pro. Once I did that, I changed startup disks and erased the SSD
    so, in a sense it's there, but not being used now.  you may want to enable TRIM as well-which might be helpful
    http://www.mactrast.com/2013/11/enable-trim-ssds-os-x-mavericks/
    I think there's a setting to show hard discs and internal disks, cd's and dvd's and connected servers, which I'm guessing is turned on
    sorry I can't help you much more

  • Can I use the power charger(85W T Connector) with MBP(17 inch 2010 mid)?

    Hi I have a MBP (17 inch 2010 mid). It uses a 85W L Connector. But today, it is not working anymore.  And I found a older charger 85W T Connector is work with it. But I want to make sure it will not break my batter when a long time usage. Does anyone know it?
    Thanks in advance.
    TO APPLE GUYS,
    Why the material of your cable has so bad quality? It seem easy to aging. Not only the Power charger, also with your earphone cable and other USB cable.

    Thanks. It can work. But the Apple serivce guys told me it make harm my battery. I don't know why. So I want to make sure at here.
    I just wish the apple guys could read it in their free time.

  • How do I enable the backlit keyboard on my mid 2010 13" MBP?

    How do I enable the backlit keyboard on my mid 2010 13" MBP? running Windows 8.1? I DO have the latest Apple Support Files downloaded and installed. Everything works except for the illumination of the keyboard and the brightness controls. OS X version is Mavericks.

    windows8.1 dont have official support so if it works with win8 then likely it will again when official support for win8.1 comes

  • Mid 2010 17" MBP video problems

    I have a mid 2010 17" MBP that has been having the same video issues as the 2011 MBP But, I guess im out of luck getting mine repaired?

    As I said any brand will work just as well as any other brand, so the brand is irrelevant which you buy. All types of RAM are known to work. None any better than any other. This includes whatever brands Apple uses. As long as the RAM has a lifetime warranty and you buy from a vendor with a good return policy then you are in good shape.
    If you look for the research you will find that tests of different brands of RAM demonstrated that the brand is unimportant when choosing a product.
    I've never purchased brand name RAM in over 20 years for more than 30 Macs I've owned, and I've never had a problem. I happen to purchase mine from Data Mem.

  • Replacement of the logic board of mbp 15" 2010 mid

    Recently, I replaced the logic board of my mbp 15" (2010 mid ver.).
    By the way, since then, I can't recover my mbp via internet recovery.
    I found a message "Apple can't recognize my computer ~~" blah blah~.
    Is this ordinary ?
    Anyway, I found a software update (maybe EFI Firmware) that makes possible the internet recovery.
    (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4904?viewlocale=en_US)
    But, the software is not installed.
    It says my system doesn't support the update.
    Is this ordinary ?
    After the replacement, I have observed several weird phenomena even though I can't say them clearly.
    very long delay of app launch.. or finally fail to lanuch an app. fail to install Mavericks.. and so on.
    But, AHT doesn't find any hardware error.

    Here.. the problem is... I can't do clean install Mavericks.
    I have tried to install Mavericks cleanly several times, but I failed.
    In the last step of the installation (usually user configuration step), my mbp stops. not working.
    I don't know why..
    My current OS is mountain lion.. the installation of this was also very tough work.
    In the middle of the installation, mbp suddenly stops (so I reboot 2~3 times by force).
    I guess all problems are caused by the replacement of logic board.
    But, as I mentioned before, the result of AHT is there is no hardware problem.
    Can an engineer of apple repair center find out any hardware failure even if the result of AHT is no hardware error ?

  • Air play mirroring doesn't work mac pro desktop 2010 mid 27" display

    mac pro desktop 2010 mid '27" display'
    I have turn on the " show mirroring options in the menu bar " it does not show up
    I also have Imac workes just fine ,Iphone , Ipad , same workes just fine
    so it is in the mac pro is there a down load fix or do I need to buy graphics card or what
    I have had nothing but but troble out of this 27" display no microphone the misplay will stop working
    when avery thing was new you told me that a fix would be out soon but 2 years later not a thing

    be sure you are not confusing "AirPlay Mirroring" and Display Mirroring.
    AirPlay Mirroring is not supported in that Model Mac, only in Macs with Intel integrated graphics:
    About AirPlay Mirroring in OS X
    Your Mac does support Mirroring of displays, and always has. The settings for this are in:
    System Preferences > Displays  ...
    ... [√] Mirror displays

  • Imac 2010 mid as a display

    Can I use a third-party keyboard or older Apple keyboard to enable TDM?
    Some older Apple keyboards and keyboards not made by Apple may not allow Command-F2 to toggle display modes. You should use an aluminum wired or wireless Apple keyboard to toggle TDM on and off.

  • 2010 i5 MBP USB Ports Not The Same?  Griffin iMic Issue

    I have a 2010 15" i5 MBP. I got one of the white iMics and it works fine on the port thats closest to the screen. However, when I plug it in to the port that's closer to the SD slot, it doesn't work. Under the audio settings screen, I see the iMic under Input, and the slider is to the right, but the VU meter doesn't register anything. However, when it's in the USB port by the power adapter, it works as it should.
    I have read that certain model MBPs have USB ports that are not the same, and some people have problems with programs like Serato when it's plugged into the front port. Traktor and Serato have even mentioned that on the MBP there is one "good" port and one "bad" port.
    Curious if anyone else noticed this. Again, it seems to only affect 2010 i5 MBPs.

    Hi WebBrowser2,
    As I understand your query its not a single doubt you are having at all, actually it’s a bunch of multiple doubt you are carrying here in your mind allied to Mac Book Pro (USB Ports are not working).  There might be various reasons behind- not working of USB ports in Mac Book Pro, as you already had searched out various ways to fix all your issues. A few months ago, I faced the same issue as my USB port was suddenly stopped to respond, then I also tried to find various ways to get rid of this issue, and I found an informative blog link which has fixed this issue and make me tension free.
    For more information visit at- http://www.olmtopsts.com/blogs/when-macbook-pro-usb-ports-not-working.html
    And I am hoping- it will assist you in the same way as it assists me.

  • Macbook pro 2010 (mid) not working

    Hey everyone,
    My macbook pro 2010 mid does not turn on anymore because I spilled a drink all over the keyboard and I do not want to pay to repair it. In addition, it also had display problems as well like white and black screens. I tried using the "Power On" program for apple and it says that my laptop is not worth anything but I am able to recycle it for free... I was wondering if my macbook pro is still worth something since I have the battery and memory in it still

    Looks like that the speaker may be blown.
    Have you checked the Audio MIDI setup?
        Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup
        Audio Devices window
        Side Bar
        Click the Built-in Output.
        Under Mute any of the boxes checked? If so, uncheck it.
