After updating to 10.6.8 and Thunderbolt Firmware June 27

I am having problems running in clamshell mode with the Macbook Pro 2011 with i7 proc since updating os and firmware. I updated the OS a few days ago, but didn't hook up to monitor until today after updating the firmware. Shouldve disconnected mac external monitor and run firmware not in clamshell mode but I didn't. Can I roll back my system and intall the firmware again?
The problem is that finder keeps crashing over and over again. But only in clamshell mode. Gonna try different connection techniques and such, but this seems to not be "fixing" itself.
Or is this an issue with the firmware? I use an apple bluetooth keyboard, and a wired usb keyboard (the magic mouse would lag - hard to use, so disconnected.)
Sorry, this pro has been in the shop too many times, and replaced once already. Getting frustrating. They just replaced the bluetooth radio because of the major mouse lag - did not repair the issue.

Sorry guys for worthless topic, found bunch of same! So, I will try to down combo update and try than, should be fine they said.

  • HT1420 After updating to 11 for itunes and ios 7 for phone - I lost over 3500 songs from my itunes.  My ipod still has 4100 songs on it less the most recent ones I have purchased.  Can't my ipod be used to recreate the library in itunes?

    After updating itunes to 11.1 and phone to ios7, I lost more than 3500 songs from my library. My ipod has 4185 songs less the most recent I purchased.
    Is there no way an ipod can be used to restore the lost music?  Yes, some of it was from cds but were done a long time ago.  Obviously it was acceptable for me to compile this music then, now they want to say since it all wasn't purchased, I can't have what was already mine?  Plus I do not use nor want to use the cloud, but it keeps creeping up even though I don't want or use it.  HELP!

  • Some words are not highlighting on my read-aloud epubs after updating IOS 6.0.1 and iBooks 3.0.1

    Some words are not highlighting on my read-aloud epubs after updating IOS 6.0.1 and iBooks 3.0.1 on both my iPad 2 and iPad 3. They are working absolutely fine earlier. I even updated the latest version of iBooks 3.0.2 but nothing is working. Can anybody help?

    Hi spati,
    I ran into this problem as well.  Seems like something funky going on with iBooks 3.  Anyways, I had to tweak my read-aloud clip starts in the smil.  Where the word was not highlighting, I added a few milliseconds to the timing until the word started highlighting again.  Not the most ideal solution, and not sure what exactly causes it because 90% of the words were just fine, but it seemed to fix the problem.  Note prior to the problem happening, I had all my clip start timings = clip end timings for the previous word, so there were no gaps.

  • My iphone 5c crashed after updating to IOS 8.02 and now i don't have anything from the last 3 months. What do I do?

    My iphone 5c crashed after updating to IOS 8.02 and now i don't have anything from the last 3 months. What do I do?

    Don't worry about that. iPhone stuck in recovery mode always happens when you update the iOS on your iPhone. There are two ways to solve it.
    First is is to put your iPhone in DFU mode.
    Step 1. Turn off iPhone
    Step 2. Hold down the Power and Home button.
    Step 3. When you see the Apple logo, release the power button but continue holding the Home button down.
    Step 4. Open iTunes and wait for it to tell you that it’s in restore mode.
    If DFU mode can't solve the problem, I'm afraid the only solution is to try some 3rd party software, like iPhone data recovery or something like that. You may simply try the tutorial here: How to Fix iPhone that is Stuck in Recovery Mode.

    Hello alicelan,
    After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help with device errors. You may want to consider restoring your device to factory settings to resolve the issues you've described:
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
    Restoring iOS software deletes all your data and content from your device, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar info.
    Before you restore your device
    Make sure you’re using the latest version of iTunes.
    Use iTunes to back up your device. Transfer and sync any additional content to your computer.
    Turn off Find My iPhone in Settings > iCloud on your device to disable Activation Lock.
    Restore your iOS device
    Connect your iOS device to your computer using the cable that came with it.
    Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes. In the Summary panel, click Restore.
    Click Restore again to confirm that you want to restore your device to factory settings and delete all data and content. iTunes will download the iOS software file and restore your iOS device.
    After your iOS device is restored to factory settings, it will restart. Once it does, you’ll see the "Slide to set up” welcome screen. Follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. You can set up your device as new or using a previous backup. If your iOS device has cellular service, it will activate after you restore.
    Learn more
    If you get an error message, find out how to fix most update and restore errors.
    If your iOS device with cellular service doesn’t activate after restoring, find out how to fix activation issues.
    If your iOS device restarts repeatedly or isn’t responding, for example if you see a stopped progress bar or no progress bar, put the device into recovery mode and restore it again.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • After updating to iOS8 my iPhone and iPads no longer autofill name and passwords

    After updating to iOS8 my iPhone and iPads no longer autofill name and passwords
    It worked fine in iOS7, it still works fine on an older iPhone 4 running 7 and an iPad Air also running 7. Also my Macs, an old MacPro 10.7.5 and a MacBook Air 10.9.5 work great, autofilling every time.
    This is what Safari settings look like:
    All the password info is still there under Saved Passwords.
    I have tried turning Names and passwords off and on but no luck
    What should I do?

    I can get autofill to work but it will only remember my last username and password used for the site rather then letting me start typing a username and then suggesting one and its password being automatically filled in if I hit space while the suggested username was showing or when i finished typing the username (how it worked in iOS 7). I'm having zero issues using iCloud keychain on my MacBook pro running Yosemite so I'm not sure if apple accidentally removed this functionality or if there is something I can do to get it back? I have keychain turned on as well as autofill passwords and when I go into the settings I can see all the accounts and passwords for this particular site so I know they're saved..very odd behavior. If no fix I'll just start adding them all to one password but this seems cumbersome considering safari has this feature built in.

  • My MBP doesnt boot after update / Prohibition sign flashes twice and then goes straight to OX Utilities

    Hello all,
    I thought I would never be here, but I am.
    After updating iTunes and Memory Clean in App Store (nothing unusual) my MAC stopped booting properly.
    MBP / early 2011 / Mountain Lion
    It shows the Apple logo flashing twice the prohibiting sign (cancel circle), after that it goes straight to the OS X Utilities.
    Note:
    - It recognizes the HD and the Recovery partition.
    - Verify permission shows a lot of /Applications/iTunes issues, but I have repaired like 5 times and still showing issues.
    - Hardware test passed OK.
    - Repair disk, no issues.
    - Shift (safe mode) doesn't work (lot of flashing ? folder, apple logo, etc).
    - PRAM restarted, twice.
    I can't reinstall or launch the ML installer, when I go trough the install process which mandatory requires Internet connection and AppStore login, it states: This item is temporarily unavailable. Try again later.
    Please help me, I'm desperate this is my production machine and I'm travelling.
    What I'm missing?

    You cannot reinstall Mountain Lion from the App Store, but you can install Mavericks which is free and will run on your computer. Here's what you do:
    Install or Reinstall Mavericks or Mountain Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    OS X Mavericks- Erase and reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Erase and reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Erase and reinstall Mac OS X
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Problem syncing after updateing to iSync 2.2 and OS 10.4.6

    I can't sync my Nokia 6620 after updating iSync 2.2! I get an error massage "The phone address book is full. Please delete some contacts on your phone or change filtering options and syncronize again."
    I tried deleteing all the contact on my phone and syncronize without any luck! Tried to reseting the device and syncronize; no luck! I have even deleted the pairing and re-paired — nothing worked!!

    I doubt that the problem is related to having more that one copy of AppleWorks on your hard drive, although there is no need to have more than one copy of the same version & language, i.e. US/North American English 6.2.9 (which also contains 6.2.8 if you purchased the retail box) or French 6.2.4/6.2.3.
    Personally, I don't use the assistant to prepare an envelope as I set up my own template/stationary in ClarisWorks long before there were assistants. Others also have problems with the various assistants. Since it crashes when you go to Page Setup, the problem could be in AppleWorks (more likely) or in your printer driver (less likely). The first thing to do is delete the AppleWorks preferences. Deleting AppleWorks & reinstalling does not touch the preference files, they must be moved manually. It also is necessary to delete these preferences after every AppleWorks crash. See my user tip, AppleWorks has stopped working correctly, for more information. If this doesn't work, please post back, especially with the make & model of printer you are using.

  • Mavericks upgrade and Thunderbolt firmware update?

    Hi Guys,
    last week I installed mavericks to an external hard drive and am currently using my early 2011 MBP as a dual boot using Lion and Mavericks. The main reason is because my audio software is no longer being updated in Lion.
    My next purchase once I start using Mav full time, will either be a belkin thunderbolt dock or the akitio thunder dock. So I can run my hard drives, tv etc from the thunderbolt port.
    Problem is, I'm unsure if I can update my thunderbolt port in my machine, and both docks will only run on thunderbolt two.
    in about this mac my information is this:
    Model Identifier:     MacBookPro8,2
    Boot ROM Version:     MBP81.0047.B27
    SMC Version (system):     1.69f4
    If I install the firmware updates here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237
    will I be able to update the firmware for my thunderbolt port from
    Firmware Version:     22.1
    Port Micro Firmware Version:     2.0.7
    to whatever the latest one is, because I saw a post saying the latest frimware version is 25.1
    any advice/ideas?
    Cheers Iain.

    I emailed Akitio and got this reply.
    "The AKiTiO Thunder Dock is using Thunderbolt 1 but it's compatible with  both Thunderbolt 1 and Thunderbolt 2, so you can use it on earlier  machines as well as the latest Thunderbolt 2 machines. However, the  minimum system requirement is Mac OS X 10.9, so you will need to use  Mavericks.
    Regarding the EFI and SMC firmware, it's good to use the latest version  and we usually recommend to update it as part of our troubleshooting  process. The page you provided is the one I would have suggested too, so  you can follow the links there and update your machine.
    Keep in mind that this will not upgrade your Thunderbolt port as you put it, it only updates the firmware of your system."

  • After update plugins are re-installed and setting are lost

    Hi, after last 2 updated I experienced same problem.
    I have changed some setting (like ask to save tabs before exit etc...) and after update all settings are reverted to original ones + all addons (and addon settings) are also lost. Actually I think that ALL ADDONS were actually re-installed and hence I got default settings with every addon so last 2 updates I had to optimize each and every plugin.... annoying....
    Will this be the case with every future update ? If so, what can I do to save my settings and addons

    Hi,
    Please see [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Preferences%20are%20not%20saved this].
    If you have security software (antivirus, firewall etc.) installed, you can try deleting all existing instances of Firefox and its related processes/files in all the different configuration modules/areas of the security software like process monitoring, sub/spawned process control, virtualization, HIPS etc., in addition to the security software's main configuration panel. Instead create new fully allowed/trusted rules for Firefox + its related processes in all the different modules/panels - a genuine/original Firefox installer as well as all the installed EXEs (Application) and DLLs (Application extension) are digitally signed by Mozilla Corporation (right-click > Properties > Digital Signatures). Even otherwise, some security software may also ask again when Firefox and/or its sub processes are started, and you may be able to allow/trust at that time.

  • After updating to yosemite, start up and recovery mode freeze

    I recently got a 2010 Macbook Pro off of ebay and it was on 10.6 so I decided to update to 10.10. After updating it told me to restart so I did. Well after restarting the spinning wheel froze so I restarted it again. It does the same thing. I googled around to see if anyone had the same problem as me, plenty of people did, they said that they found the recovery partition and the Mac started working again, so I tried finding the recovery partition by pressing shift, option, and r (or something like that) and it turns out I don't have one. Then I tried Internet Recovery and that was a bust too, so now in stuck with a $700 paperweight. I'll post the sspecs on my Macbook below -

    Do you have a back up? What version of iPhoto do you have? Assuming 09 or later:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Iphone 4 keeps on hanging after updating to iOS 5.0 and later to iOS 5.1

    My iphone 4 keeps on hanging after updating to iOS 5.0.  I can no longer make and receive calls.  If I am successful in making a call, it will never end even after pressing stop.  The problem still persists even after updating to iOS 5.1.  How do I resolve this problem?

    Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
