Can't turn on MacBook Pro after proper Shutdown
I can't turn on my MacBook Pro after proper shutdown. It's simply does not start at all. If I leave it over night, It boot's up normaly and I can work with it all day, restart, suspend, etc. If I shut it down or turn of with power button, it wouldn't start again. I tried to reset smc, vram, pram and nothing helped.
very indicative of a battery issue or feeding issue from same. Call Apple support for genius bar appt. to see about a repair.
When you say "wont start at all" do you mean utterly dead,....... or "wont reach to desktop",.....big difference beween the two.
If utterly dead, then battery/power issue, ......if the later, and wont reach to desktop, then corrupt OSX or other issue.

Can i return my macbook pro after 5 months
can i return my macbook pro after 5 months
If you bought it direct from Apple, you have 14 days to return it for a full refund or toward the purchase of a different model.
After that time, if it is broken it can be repaired. If it does not suit your needs and cannot be upgraded to suit your needs, you recourse is to convert it to CASH by selling it, and apply the cash toward a computer that better suits your needs. -

CAN I TURN MY MACBOOK PRO INTO A MONITOR?
Help I want to turn my Macbook Pro into a monitor for my Playstation 2 so that way I can record on my screen using quicktime. please help I used a vga adapter from apple a AV to vga converter, and is their any way for me to use an iphone on a mac to play ios games while recording?
I don't think you can without some sort of capture card (very expensive, and because most MacBook Pros don't have a card, you need to use the FW800). MBP's Thunderbolt port only sends video signals out, you can't attach an HDMI to Mini DisplayPort cable from your camera to the MBP and expect to show video.
You could try a utility like Sofortbild. -
How can I turn my Macbook Pro display off instantly?
Hello.
I love having my laptop connected to my TV via HDMI cable to watch TV shows. But I dont like putting it in Clamshell mode because I have a VLC Remote app that lets me put the next film on instantly without touching the laptop.
I like to have the laptop display fully off / black so that i'm not see two images (TV and Laptop), so what I do is hold the brightness key down to turn off the display.
Does anyone know of a menu bar app, or a command to turn the display off instantly with a single click?
Thank YouNo eject key on new Macbook Pros...
I guess it depends on you Macbook Pro. My 15" Macbook Pro (2011) has the eject key to the right of the F12 key far upper right corner of the keyboard.
My wife's 13" Macbook Pro Retina (2013) has a power button there, HOWEVER, Control-Shift-Power does exactly the same as Control-Shift-Eject. That is to say Control-Shift-Power will turn off the screen.
So assuming you have a power button, use
Control-Shift-Power
NOTE: my older 2011 Macbook Pro has a power button in the case, not part of the keyboard, AND Control-Shift-Power also works on my older Macbook Pro to turn off the screen. -
I just opened up my MacBook Pro after a few days of not using it and it was frozen. I turned it off and back on and all I see is a white screen, there was a file with a question mark flashing for a bit but I can't do anything, please help me!!
Jerricayoung,
you have a 13-inch Mid 2012 MacBook Pro. It’s modern enough that it supports booting into Recovery mode. To do so, hold down a Command key and the R key as you start up. It should eventually show a Mac OS X Utilities menu. Select Disk Utility from that menu; when the Disk Utility window appears, select the bootable volume from the left-hand side of the window. (It’s typically called “Macintosh HD”.) When the volume is selected, some buttons will appear on the right-hand side. If it’s not greyed out, press the Verify Disk button; if it is greyed out, or if it reports on errors that it found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu; that will restart your MacBook Pro in its normal mode. With luck, that will be enough to get you to your normal login screen, rather than the white screen. -
Hi, I turned my MacBook Pro off before I went to sleep, and this morning when I awaken. I can't seem to turn up or down my volume. It comes up with all the volume bars and a little circle sign with a diagonal line in the middle, like a stop sign. I have gone to system preferences > Volume > Output BUT all my volume preferences have gone all light grey and wont let me access them.
Anyone help?Hi EmalooneyToons,

Can I run a windows software program that is on a CD on my macbook pro after I install bootcamp and windows xp home?
genepaquin,
the last MacBook Pros that supported installing Windows XP in a Boot Camp partition are the Mid 2010 models. If your MacBook Pro is newer than that, and you don’t have a newer version of Windows to install into a Boot Camp partition on your MacBook Pro, then you might consider an alternative such as running Windows with the help of programs such as VirtualBox or Parallels Desktop rather than through Boot Camp. -
Can I purchase extended warranty for macbook pro after 1 year warranty expired?
Can I purchase extended warranty for macbook pro after 1 year warranty expired? Macbook bought 2011 November?
OK thanks for your replies.
Now if something goes wrong how can my Macbook Pro be fixed cheaply. Two of my friends have bills for $1300 and $1100, one to repair motherboard another is to replace screen. One has extended warranty.
Is there a cheap way to get a macbook repaired.
Thanks. -
iMovie was removed from my macbook pro after I downloaded OS X Yosemite, I had it before and have used it, but now I can only get it through the app store. I can't pay for it so I would really appreciate the help.
Look in your applications folder for the installer - Install OS X Yosemite. Delete it. Then go back to the App Store purchases tab and see if you can download it. You might have to re-index Spotlight.

I can't start my macbook pro because I turned it off when I got a trojan on my mac. When I turn on my mac I get the message that my computer restarted because of a problem. Then it turns off again and turns on again and it starts all over. What can I do?
Boot into your recovery partition (restart, hold down ⌘R until you see the Apple logo), and use Disk Utility to repair your hard drive. Repair permissions too while you're there. OS X: About OS X Recovery

I recently upgraded to a macbook pro after my old pc laptop crashed, is there a way to ensure that I can get all the songs off my iPhone when I sync?
There's some third party applications available. The following article is pretty old (2008) so it would be best to reality-check the capabilities and availability of the various listed items prior to opting for a particular product:

I installed bootcamp but became a pain to use so I unistalled it. Now every time I turn my Macbook pro on it keeps asking me what startup disk to use. I tried using the system preferences to correct this but it hasn't worked. I even restored my mac back to factory settings but it still asks me what startup disk to use. I have looked everywhere for a solution but one anywhere
Delete the System Preference .plist file (preference file) and when rebooting and #2 Reset the PRAM

Then head to System Preferences > Startup Disk and select the OS X volume to boot from.
