Deleted files now Macbook pro 13 2011 does not boot up

Tried following some instructions to delete search.genieo an safari and deleted some files. Now my Macbook pro 13 does not boot up at all. All I see is the screen with small apple and the running circle below indicating it is thinking. any clues anyone. Thxs

Just for the record, in case someone with the same problem stumbles across this topic later, I'll repeat the advice I gave you on another topic:
You did not follow the instructions precisely, and now you have suffered the fate that the giant red text on that page warned you about.
At this point, you will need to try the recovery instructions posted at the end of that page.

MacBook Pro 2011 does not detect external monitor

I have a MacBook Pro 13'' early 2011 runing Lion 1.7.2.
I have an HP v185ws external monitor connected via an Apple Thunderbolt to VGA connector.
Since last month's Thunderbolt firmware update, my external monitor is no longer detected.
Does anybody has a solution to this problem?
Thanks.

I have a problem connecting external display (Dell U2311H) to my 13" MacBook Pro (Early 2011).
I use Tecklink Mini DasplayPort to HDMI adapter (http://www.techlink.uk.com/products/wires_cables/wiresmedia/wiresmedia_media/wir esmedia_mini_displayport_plug_to_hdmi_plug), but since U2311H doesn't have HDMI input, I also use Manhattan DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter (http://www.manhattan-products.com/en-US/products/8101-displayport-adapter).
And nothing.
The display is not detected, no picture or even external monitor presence at all.
I even reset PRAM, and installed 10.8.2 Supplementary update.
I also plugged and unplugged all I could, with no luck.
As I can see on Apple discussion, it is a common problem with 2011 MacBook Pro's.
It seems like the problem is in Thundebolt port, it somehow does not work properly.

Note - that no internet backup service has been proven to be safe and effective for backing up the iPhoto library - unless you personally have backup uyp an iPhoto library and restored it sucussfuly form one it should not be recommended - a large number of people have lost their photos trying it

You haven't identified the version so I can't tell if offering you contact options for Adobe Support will be of use to you. But they will likely be your only hope of getting resolution unless you just happen to be using the wrong number as the serial number.

Macbook Pro 2011 do not support SATA III?

Macbook Pro 2011 do not support SATA III?

Yes, they do, sort of! It's funny because I was about to complain about my THIRD 2011 MacBook Pro and while SATA III works fine in the main hard drive bay, it will not let me put a second SSD into the optical drive bay for a RAID 0 solution. This affects all 15" and 17" MBP's, but strangely enough, it works just fine on the 2011 13" MBP's. GRRR! This is so infuriating.

Reinstall OS X.
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.
OR
Reinstall Snow Leopard without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. 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 installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

MacBook Pro (Late 2010) not booting up properly

I have a late 2010 MacBook Pro that will not start up properly, when I hit the power button the screen flashes white with the chime but no apple logo. The screen then turns off and the white indicator light starts flashing(at normal sleep speed) a few moments after bootup. During this process the magstrip stays solid green the entire time. While the front indicator is solid I tried making sure my screen brightness was not down or if I could turn up the brightness on my keyboard (which I couldnt) and the green light for the caps lock wouldnt come on either.
I have read through some other posts and have reset the NVRAM and tried to boot into safe mode, however I can not do such a thing with the screen turning off right after bootup.
Any help would be greatly appercaited, it was just working the other day and hasnt been moved so I'm lost as to what is wrong

Kinger2010,
you can try this: boot your MacBook Pro into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as it starts up. Once the OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Does it reach the login screen now?

Macbook Pro 7.1 not booting up after Software update

Hello everyone,
I have a problem, but first some context?
I recently got my mom's old Macbook Pro(7.1) with Intel's 2.4 Ghz C2D and Nvidia 320M graphics. A small upgrade from my 2009 MBP(5.5) but is in much better shape than my old machine. In that unit(5.5) I used a 40 GB SSD as a boot drive and a 640 GB Platter drive for general storage, and removed the optical drive, as I did not use it very often.
Well, now I transplanted both drives into the 7.1 MBP, but the system will get stuck at the grey screen. I then proceeded to backup all my data, and wipe both drives multiple times and tried to installs on a clean system.
I replaced the aftermarket ram I had with the factory sticks, put the factory drive and the Super Drive back in. Loaded up Snow Leopard via DVD on an empty drive.
It boots and runs just fine. So I put in the SSD to try it out. It loads OSX Snow Leopard just fine again. I go do a software update to 10.6.8, and on reboot to finalize, I get stuck again at the grey screen. The progress wheel freezes, and I am stuck until I do a forced shut-down.
Safe mode gets me nowhere, AHT does not work, Verbose mode freezes after 10 seconds or so and I have also reset the SMC and the NV/PRAM multiple times.
I am at a loss. I have a nearly pristine MBP that for some odd reason will not work for me in the slightest, despite my best efforts at attempting to diagnose the problem.
Note that all componenents that I listed,(SSD, Larger HDD, Upgraded Ram etc.) All worked flawlessly in my previous MacBook Pro.
Does one hardware generation make that much of a difference for an OS and for upgrades that clearly work in other Apple devices?

darkrider92,
I have the same model MacBook Pro as the one that you got from your mom. Were you able to install the 10.6.8 update successfully onto the factory drive? Were you using the factory RAM when you tried to install the 10.6.8 update on the SSD?
Have you checked the Web site of the SSD’s manufacturer, to see if there’s a firmware update available for the SSD?
You can download the 10.6.8 update outside of Software Update from Apple here; in case you need to try to install this update several times, running it from your local disk would be more convenient than waiting for it to download again.

MacBook Pro 2011 won't boot

My early 2011 MacBook Pro 15" won't boot. Second time dealing with this this year. Apple Store charged me $300+ to fix it the first time. It worked for a few months, but stopped working again. Took it to the shop again and asked them to fix it for good this time. They wanted to charge me $310. I said NO. why would they charge me twice for a repair I asked them to do before? How widespread is this problem? I know for a fact I'm not the only one dealing with this problem.

What have you done to define your problem? Look at this comprehensive troubleshooting article and perhaps you can find a solution:

Note that Apple repairs are guaranteed for 90 days.
Ciao.
