I purchased my Macbook Pro in November 2011 and just installed mountain lion but do not have the power nap option.. anyone know why?

It is for the MacBook with built in flash storage.

4. Power Nap requires a Mac notebook with built-in flash storage. May require a firmware update.

  • My MacBook Pro won't start it just goes beep beep beep when I press the power button

    My MacBook Pro won't start it just goes beep beep beep when I press the power button

    Hi Csound1,
    I haven't added any RAM my daughter was using the computer then it hung so powered it down then the beeping started. Do you know if there is a combination of buttons I can press when powering up that will put me in some kind of  safe mode so that I can find out what's up, I tried pressing D when the beeping started but it didn't make a difference.

  • Macbook pro won't drag and drop using mountain lion

    Since installing mountain lion. I have been unable to drag and drop.selected items just stay stuck to the cursor and when positioned where they need to go the item will not drop. the only way to correct this seems to be by pressing escape command and the trackpad which then returns the item to its original position. this has only happened since I installed mountain lion OS X  it is getting very annoying. My model is a mid 2009 15 inch laptop MacBook Pro which has 8 GB of RAM, I have noticed that other people seem to have the same problem but have been using an installed item called LapLink display I do not this have,so this is not causing the problem. any help to resolve thiswould be much appreciated.

    I now seem to have solved the problem after reading various solutions. The one that works for me is to to put the laptop to sleep and on reawaking the machine works as it should.

  • I have macbook pro 13 early 2011 and just got a lg 21:9 wide monitor, how do i get my mac to use the entire screen with distorting the picture? i already purchased mini dp to display port cable

    I cannot get it too use entire screen. I have 3-4 inches on both sides. I did not buy a 29inch monitor to not use all of it

    MikeD304,
    unless your MacBook Pro’s GPU supports a resolution with a 21:9 proportion, it won’t completely fill the 21:9 monitor without distortion.
    (Here’s a hint: no MacBook Pro GPU supports a resolution with a 21:9 proportion.)

  • My MacBook Pro won't shutdown and can't force it to turn off using the power button.  My computer is few months new and this is the second time that I have problems.... hate it!

    I close my computer and when I open it to wake it up,it didn't no respond.  The screen is black and can turn it off holding the power buttom.  Also, I cannot remove the battery beacuse the stupid thing is sealed... help!!!  I just bought my Mac and this is the secon time I had problems with it.  It already had the motherboard replaced... *****!!!

    I need to work on my computer now... and the store is closed, that is why I am using this site to see if someone has a quick solution.
    Why in the world Mac makes a computer with a battery that is not easy to pull out or rest???. Should I unscrew the bottom cover and try to remove the battery? Is there a reset button?
    I am hating Mac now... I have never has so many problems with a computer and few solutions at hand... it seems that this is a common problem but it has been delete from the forums in the Mac site...
    What is going on???

  • I just installed mountain lion on my early 2011 mac pro i can not get my apple tv 2 to be detected for airplay

    Pretty much the title can not detect my apple tv2 through my early 2001 macbook pro that i just installed mountain lion. Im even have a apple time capsule thats both connected to these two device. My Itunes detects the apple tv and even tested itunes playing the internet radio through the apple tv but not able to mirror my macbook pro is the problem.

    AirPlay Mirroring
    Requires a second-generation Apple TV or later. Supports the following Mac models:
    iMac (Mid 2011 or newer)
    Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer)
    MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer)

  • I have purchased MacBook Pro in November 2011. However, Pages, Numbers and Keynote comes as uninstalled in the App Store. How to correct this anomaly.

    I have purchased MacBook Pro in November 2011. However, Pages, Numbers and Keynote (pre-installed) come as uninstalled in the App Store. How to correct this anomaly?

    If the iWork apps were not originally purchased from the App Store, i.e., you bought them on an iWork installer DVD, then the App Store has no record of the purchase. When updates are available for them, you'll get your updates through the Software Update application rather than through the App Store.

    On my iphone those apps still require me to purchase them.

  • I bought a macbook pro on november 2011 wich had Lion OS installed on it. Playback plug-in in Mainstage 2.1.3 does not play files from the beginning (it leaves out like 50 mSecs or so). Is there a way to revert to Snow Leopard OS?

    ...Is there any way I can install a partition that runs snow leopard on my early 2011 MB pro with what I have (new SSD, New RAM, Current version Lion running, no external drive, lack of original snow leopard disks [I lost them ] and the general 10.6.3 snow leopard boot disks)...
    As the last post suggests, call Apple and order a replacement original disc for about $17.  They will ask you the model and serial numbers.
    Your retail version of Snow Leopard OS 10.6.3 will not work on that Mac as it requires a minimum of OS X 10.6.7 to boot and operate.
    Another alternative is to again borrow another Mac to install your retail Snow Leopard into an external HD or partition, upgrade it to 10.6.8 and then clone it back to a partition on your MBP.

  • How do I partition my MacBook Pro so I can keep Snow Leopard and also install Mountain Lion?

    How do I partition my MacBook Pro so I can keep Snow Leopard and also install Mountain Lion?
    I want to install the latest OS, but I already know that I will lose a lot of my software unless I can partition the hard drive and have two "bootable" drives.
    How do I retain everything I have, partition the drive, then reloa the software I own according to which OS it will work under?

    I do not currently own OS X ML.
    I am currently running OS X (10.6.8 Snow Leopard) on my MacBook Pro. It has a 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor. I want to upgrade to Mountain Lion, but many of my software titles will not operate with ML and I cannot afford to replace some of them (Adobe Creative Suite, for e.g.)
    After I back-up my HD and then partition the HD, how do I use the back-up to reinstall what I want to the SL partition, and then place the rest on the ML partition.
    I have not done what you want to do, so can only offer some general thoughts in support. Take value from the following where you can. No guarantees.
    If it was me, I would use a disk clone utility (e.g. Carbon Copy Cloner) to image the existing Snow Leopard disk to an external drive. Then verify that the external drive would boot and run Snow Leopard normally.
    I would then purchase and download the Mountain Lion upgrade installer, but not run it. Use Lion Diskmaker to make a bootable USB stick, and perform a clean install of Mountain Lion, replacing the Snow Leopard on your MBP. This way, you make absolutely certain that no third-party drivers or other SL cruft remains to make Mountain Lion unstable. Update to latest ML point release. Fix permissions. Let TimeMachine make a full backup of your ML installation to a different external drive. Then turn of Time Machine.
    In Disk Utility, use the + sign at the bottom of the ML partition to add another GUID, HFS+ Journaled partition for Snow Leopard. Resize to taste. Name it differently from your ML partition. Exhale.
    Now ideally, you would like to reverse the external clone and put it back into the new SL partition. Then fix permissions. And demonstrate that you can boot into individually stable OS X installations. This would save you alot of work. Resist copying your home directory into ML just yet.
    If you cannot successfully achieve the preceding paragraph, you will be faced with a full SL and application reinstall.
    The ~/Library contents for SL and ML are sufficiently different that you do not want to mix them. You may want to salvage Safari bookmarks.plist. And, ML created folders in the home directory may have different permissions or ACL settings than in SL. So, my rule of thumb would be to copy folders that you created in SL, and only the contents of matching named OS created folders such as Music, Pictures, Downloads, etc.
    For each operating system, you probably want the Time Machine settings to exclude the opposite OS X partition. If you use the same host name in Sharing prefs, then you will mix SL and ML backups on the same Time Machine back up drive. If you use different host names, they will be distinct folders in the Time Machine backups.backupdb and allow discrete restores per host. You may also want to gag Spotlight from indexing the opposite OS X partition.

  • HT1338 How to upgrade MacBook Pro from OS 10.5 (Leopard) to Mountain Lion?

    How do I upgrade a MacBook Pro from OS 10.5 (Leopard) to Mountain Lion?  Do I need to upgrade in stages, i.e. to Snow Leopard, then to Lion, then to Mountain Lion, or can it be a more direct route?
    R.

    Hi Richard,
    You need at least 10.6.6 installed to get & use the App store for purchase & download, & just read that Lion/10.7 is no longer available!???
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    It looks like they might still have it...

    It's been reported that if you have a MobileMe account, it may be free from Apple. 
    If it's a core Duo & not a Core2Duo, then it'll only run in 32 bit mode.
    Lion/101.7 System requirements
        •    x86-64 processor (Macs with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5, Intel Core i7, or Xeon processor.)
        •    At least 2GB of memory, I say 6 GB
        •    Latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), with the Mac App Store installed
        •    At least 4GB of disk space for downloading, I say 50 GB.
    Like Snow Leopard, Lion does not support PowerPC-based Macs (e.g., Power Macs, PowerBooks, iBooks, iMacs (G3-G5), eMacs).
    Lion also does not support 32-bit Intel Core Duo or Core Solo based Macs. Rosetta is no longer available in Lion, which means Lion no longer supports PowerPC applications.

    What applications are not compatible with Mac OS X 10.7 "Lion"?
    http://ow.ly/5Iz09
    http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    Macs that will support OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion
    As usual, the newer the Mac the better:
    • MacBook Pro – 13″ from mid 2009 or later, 15″ from late 2007 and newer, 17″ from late 2007 and newer
    • MacBook Air – late 2008 and newer
    • iMac – models from mid 2007 and newer
    • MacBook – 13″ aluminum from 2008, 13″ from 2009 and newer
    • Mac Mini – early 2009 and newer
    • Mac Pro – early 2008 models and newer
    • XServe – early 2009 models and newer
    Macs that are NOT expected to support OS X Mountain Lion
    Older Macs and those with weaker GPU’s will likely be left behind:
    • Anything with an Intel GMA 950 or x3100 integrated graphics card
    • Anything with an ATI Radeon X1600
    • MacBook models released prior to 2008
    • Mac Mini released prior to 2007
    • iMac models released prior to 2007
    • Original MacBook Air
    This list of compatible and incompatible Macs and system requirements are based off of the first OS X Mountain Lion Developer Preview and may be subject to change, we will update when we learn more about the specifics. OS X Mountain Lion will be released this summer but presumably long before that we will know precise system requirements and what Macs are and are not supported by the new version of OS X. Stay tuned.

  • What is the max memory allowed on a macbook pro 15" (late 2011), and what speed is the max speed allowed?

    Hello,
    I own a Macbook Pro 15" (late 2011) and I would like to upgrade the memory. I want to go with two 8gb sticks but if the motherboard only supports 8gb then I will have to stick with 8gb. Also, the ram that I have in currently, which is the 4gb that came with the mac, is 1333 Mz. Would I be able to upgrade to 1600 Mz on this laptop?

    Max is 16 GBs. Do not attempt to use memory with specs that differ from those required by your hardware.
    Maximum Memory
    16 GB (Actual) 8 GB (Apple)
    Memory Slots
    2 - 204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM

  • I've just installed mountain lion on my macbook pro. I cannot open preview and it is also stalling the log out sequence? How can I solve this

    I've just installed Mountain Lion on my Macbook pro and cannot now open Preview. I've partly solved the reading of PDF documents by installing Adobe Reader, but Preview is also stalling the log out process. Any suggestions how I might solve this annoying trait would be most appreciated. Many thanks.

    Just an FYI, normally you give the 'solved' award to the person who gave you the answer, not to yourself.
