hi, my mac book pro, spotlight indexing process not compleate last 1 week. what should i do.. my machine speed are very poor. pls help

System Preference/Spotlight/Privacy
drag your disk into the list, excluding it temproraily from the indexing procedure.
Restart your mac, and open the Privacy page again, click the disk and the minus button to re-incorporate it into the procedure and restart the indexing.
Or just try your luck in Disk Utility/First Aid/Repair Disk Permission first.
See if these help

    i just bought a mac book pro and seem to need a flash player. what should i do?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Flash Player isn't installed in OS X by default, so you have to install it manually from Adobe wesbite, if you need it > http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer

  • Time machine starts making new back up every time, and previous back up disappears. Mac Book Pro and all newest equipment and OS. What should I do?

    System seems to have done it since beginning (actually first time the day that I moved to Mountain Lion) but it is now every other day. This defeats the purpose of having a back up. I did see more comments on this but no silutions. No red i displayed in time machine. Has Apple fooled me with this time capsule or is it just broken and they should replace it?

    Check Time Machine Troubleshooting to see if it offers you any help.

  • Hi, I am using my icloud on my iphone but am unable to find it on my mac book pro. It's not under my system preferences like it shows under the setup. Can I download it again? Or something. I just need to backup some files on my computer and am unable.

    Hi, I am using my icloud on my iphone but am unable to find it on my mac book pro. It's not under my system preferences like it shows under the setup. Can I download it again? Or something. I just need to backup some files on my computer and am unable.

    The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.5 (Mavericks preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is now non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.
    To make use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mavericks, provided it meets the requirements.
    The requirements for Lion are:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). Mountain Lion (10.8.x) is also available there at the same price but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Mavericks (10.9.x) - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
    The requirements for Mountain Lion and Mavericks are:
    OS X v10.6.8 or later
    2GB of memory
    8GB of available space
      and the supported models are:
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
      You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

    Can you open Applications by navigating to the Applications folder via the Finder? When you write that your computer doesn't show icons, do you mean your Dock icons? Can you see the Dock as all?

    Ah the devil is in the details
    Adding the shift key to the command places the screen shot in the clipboard as Hiroto pointed out.
    To get the file on the Desktop just remove the shift key.
    Or as Mark Twain said

  • On Mac Book Pro start button does not turn it on.

    On Mac Book Pro start button does not turn it on.
    After some attempts of pressing it finally it turns on.
    (Meantime keayboard can be highlighted,but screen is black and I hear noise of shutting down it when I press it).
    What can be the cause of this problem? Actually MacBook is new,only 9 months.
    Please give me some suggestion what should I do.

    It will be complicated to take it to the Apple store as in Georgia (Caucasus)there is not official Apple stores and in addition Mac Book was purchased in UK. I have red some staff here about start button pressing hard for turning it on, I have feeling that now it needs to be pressed hard to turn on. If it would be from the beginning I might think that it's normal,may be,for Mac Book,but initially it needed to be slightly pressed.
    Thank you for suggestion.

  • Can I track my stolen mac book pro if I did not have an i cloud account activated on it before stolen.

    Can I track my stolen mac book pro if I did not have an i cloud account activated on it before stolen.?

    You needed to have Find my Phone set up and activated/on (which is in iCloud).
    PS: Since your profile shows you're running iOS - which iDevice do you have? Iphone, iPad, or ? Do you have it set up there? (iOS is the OS for iDevices; your MBP would be on Mac OS).

    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.
