Error 4hdd/11/4000000:sata ssd - using Apple diagnostics on a MacBook PRO 15" with 512GB SSD. My trackpad goes berserk.

I have a MacBook PRO early 2013 15" (10,1). 16 GB RAM, 512GB SSD. Running Mac OS X 10.10.
A couple of weeks ago my trackpad started being unresponsive and within a couple of days was not usable. Searched for solutions and have tried them all, (control option shift L power); (Option cmd R P power) (checked for dirt around the trackpad) (Cleaned the trackpad in case there was oil on it from my skin) (shut the screen and leave for a few minutes and try again).
I ran apple diagnostics (twice) and got the error 4hdd/11/4000000:sata ssd.
I have noticed that the computer recently will also randomly reboot.
When I connect the bluetooth mouse it sometimes has problems connecting; i.e. won't pair, but once paired works fine.
Anyone had similar issues. This is my 5th MacBook and the first time I've had a problem.

Ah, here we go. The alert can be safely ignored. Your drive is fine:
Symptoms
When you test your Mac notebook using an SSD or Flash storage drive with Apple Hardware Test (AHT) diagnostics, you may encounter the following message if the test is looped multiple times:
4HDD/11/40000000:SATA
Resolution
The alert is erroneous and generally takes multiple loops of Apple Hardware Test to induce.
Before starting Apple Hardware Test, looping can be enabled or disabled by pressing the L key on the keyboard. If the message appears and there are also other issues with the computer that appear to be related to the solid state drive (SSD) or Flash storage drive, schedule an appointment at an Apple Retail Store or contact an Apple Service Provider.

    I'm looking for a laptop that will last me a couple of years which is why I'm upgrading to SSD without losing performance. I usually game on my Mac so I want a laptop to handle that, handle programs in the background and writing or reading without losing speed, I also need a laptop that has fast boot time.
    I will be using the laptop mainly for school and running programs such as iWork and mircrosoft office as well as websurfing and video streaming thanks for any advice.

    I hope others pipe in with their comments, but the first suggestion is to visit your local Apple Store and try out the units. Trying them out can make a difference in your decision.
    This is how I'd try to make sense of this:
    MBP 13 2012:
    Solid all-purpose portable at a decent price, and even has a 240GB SSD. If you don't load it with tons to videos, this will more than fit your needs as a student and websurfer. A little heavier than the others here, but it's a solid package that's stable. Great if you need to use the CD/DVD.
    MBA 13 2012:
    Also good, similar specs, notably lighter. Notes are easy to take, and easier to carry on long campus treks. If you're not near a power source, the battery life may be a concern. If you need a CD/DVD, you can connect it when you need it - but it's extra. Servicing a MBA is more difficult.
    MBR 15 2012:
    Beautiful display, packed with performance. No DVD/CD drive, NVIDIA performance is unproven, kind of pricey, the first generation of a device; it's going to get better over time. Can't be serviced in any way by the user; the Apple Store is your only option. Now's not the best time to get the MBR.
    MBR 13 2012:
    Same comments.
    I'd say the MBA is a good pick. Few moving parts, therefore more reliability. Low heat. You can always attach a CD/DVD drive via USB. Intel Graphics is solid; no problems there. Plenty of capacity for your needs. And the display is bright. MBA 13 or 11, IMO.

  • Amazon Prime on TV using Apple TV streaming from MacBook Pro?

    I know Apple TV has Netflix natively on it, but I am a member of Amazon Prime.  Can I watch Amazon Prime movies using AppleTV via the streaming ability from my MacBook Pro?

    You would have to use mirroring, which requires a Mac from 2011 (or later) and OSX 10.8 (or later)

  • What brand of 128 Gb SSD did Apple offer for 2009 MacBook Pros?

    Anyone know what brand of 128gb ssd was stock for the mid-2009 MacBook Pro?
    Was it a good one?
    I'm thinking of buying a used MacBook Pro - MC118LL/A which has one in it.

    16 GB of RAM is the best you can do.

  • How to upgrade a MACbook pro 2009 with a SSD?

    Need help installing an SSD into my mid 2009 MACbook pro.

    Yes as Clinton says this is correct.
    I've used a Sata to USB connector which is only a few pounds instead of an enclosure for the clone, but then I wasn't keeping mt old HDD. But that's an option if you don't need it.
    I also use Carbon copy cloner as this will clone your recovery partition as well. Apples disk utility will also clone drives but I'm not sure that it copy's the recovery partition.
    I highly redomend my Samsung 840 pro 256Gb - it's about the fastest drive you'll get (nearly) but is backed by Samsung's unrivaled SSD reliability and 5 year warranty. I've also used an 840 basic model on an older macbook and was equally pleased.
    Crucial's drives are reliable mac friendly drives but are somewhat slower on the write speeds vs the 840 Pro.
    I'd avoid OCZ drives due to so many failures across their range although they do have great reviews and some models just edge the Pro on speed although it's fairly negligible.
    As Clinton says, avoid the Samsung Evo drive. I wanted to buy this drive as it is a great drive - but there are many users that have had compatibility issues with it when installed in a Mac. This may rectified on a future firmware update possibly, but until it's proven I would avoid it for now.

  • Can I use the charger from white MacBook Pro 13'' with 2012 MacBook Pro 13''?

    My friend has a white macbook, 13''. Can I use his charger to charge my MacBook Pro 13'' (mid 2012)?
    Thanks. Giorgio

    Yes it is possible, as long as the wattage is the same.

  • Why is it not possible to use airplay mirroring on earlier macbook pro models with Mountain Lion?

    I know there are questions alike mine, but if anybody knows some new information on this, please let us know.
    I've been looking forward to this release of the OSX, especially the built in AirPlay mirroring function for the Mac Pro, which I've been missing ever since I bought the Apple TV.
    Now finally when I went to download Mountain Lion, I accidentally search google, and find out that AirPlay mirroring is only supported on early 2011 Mac Pro and later?
    What are the earlier users going to do? I have an early 2009 model of the Mac Pro, and I just wan't to know if I'll be able to utilize the new AirPlay mirroring function or not, which determines whether or not I'm going to upgrade my OSX version
    Hope someone's got news on this one.
    Best regards, Thomas

    You get an option to take a SnapShot.
    Quicktime will also be able to access it and record using Quicktime  X in Snow Leopard.
    Check the Menu items for New Recording.
    MSN for Mac can use it (It depend on version and in some cases whether you are connected to the correct type of Windows server)
    Yahoo (This is in Beta 3 and has been for years)
    Results can vary.
    A Web Browser with the Flash Plug-in active can access the camera on certain Web Sites that run video Chat rooms

  • Using an external non-Apple display on a MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion

    On Friday I upgraded to Mountain Lion from Snow Leopard and now I am not able to use my 23" Samsung monitor exclusively as my display. I can mirror the MacBook Pro's display, but then my HD monitor's resolution is downgraded.
    I used to start-up my MacBook Pro pushing the "On" button and then quickly closing the notebook. When it has started and the display was shown on my Samsung monitor, I opened the MacBook and all would be well. I had the benefit of the full HD resolution of my Samsung monitor, with all the menus and the MacBook's screen would be blank. If I follow the same steps now, the moment I open my MacBook, everything shifts back to the MacBook and the external screen only shows the background picture, with no menus.
    I am a photographer and use the large HD-quality screen to see fine detail when I am doing editing. I do not like to work on two screens at the same time, and would prefer it to just keep on working in the same way as previuosly.
    Can someone please give me advice on my problem?

    This may help but then it may not. I tested it with my iMac and non-Apple second display so results may vary.
    With both the MacBook and the second display powered on go to the Apple Menu > System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement
    Drag the Menu Bar to the second display and then drag the display itself to the other side of the second display. This should allow acces to the dock and Menubar on the non-Apple display and achive your desired results.
    Note: If I sleep my iMac the second display stops so you may need to keep your MacBook open to use these settings
    Hope that helps

  • HT3275 My time machine does not back up and giving me this error message: The backup disk image "/Volumes/Data-1/Amiel's MacBook Pro.sparsebundle" is already in use. Pls help.

    My time machine does not back up and giving me this error message: The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data-1/Amiel’s MacBook Pro.sparsebundle” is already in use. Pls help.

    Make sure that there are no other Macs backing up at the present time.
    Pull the power cord from the back of the Time Capsule
    Count to ten
    Plug the power cord back in
    This will "fix" things about 98% of the time. Post back if you are in the unlucky 2% category.

    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the page that opens.
    Select the System keychain in the list of keychains in the sidebar of the window. If you don't see the list, click the down-arrow icon below the sidebar.
    Then select Passwords in the Category list at lower left. Click the Kind heading in the list of keychain items to arrange it by Kind.
    Locate the AirPort Disk Password with the name of your Time Capsule. Double-click the item and check the box marked Show Password in the inspector window that opens. You'll be prompted for the administrator login password. Make a note of the AirPort password, then close the inspector window and delete the item.
    Also delete any other AirPort DIsk Password items for that same Time Capsule, which may have had a different name in the past.
    Quit Keychain Access and try again to back up.

    Look on the right hand side .. more like this.. I am surprised you can have missed it.. we get about 10 requests a day now to fix it.. especially since Mountain Lion has made it 10x worse.

    Can't save my illustrator files. I keep getting "unknown error" message. Using version 6 on a macbook pro. OSX 10.9.5

    42nato,
    You may try the list (skip 5) in this case).
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by issues with opening a file from external media, see below. You may have tried/done some of them already; 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall (ticking the box to delete the preferences), run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.
