HT3131 MY macbook pro will only connect to my TV when the lid is open. When I close it to enter clamshell mode my TV gives me a error message saying "resolution mismatch." i have tried switching cables and using different TV's. it works on all my other TV
It works all my other TV's except my Magnavox 39 inch. i have made sure that the resolutions are compatible.
Yay! Solved my own question; just did a hard shutdown, worked like a charm! Funny, didn't before. But who am I to question salvation?

I haven't used my computer in a month, so when I turned it on, I saw it was running slow. The circle that is used to load the page kept coming up and it took sometime for things to load up. I tried to go Into safe mode, and it worked, but I know your limited on what you can do in that world. I also tried to repair the disk but it kept giving me an error message. How can I resolve this problem?
Time Machine is a back up you have to set up to back up before there is a problem like a hard drive failure.
It is possible to recover files from a failed drive, but it is an expensive proposition.
There is a faint hope that an app like Disk Warrior or TechTool Pro might repair the drive. You could try making an appointment at an Apple store and ask a technician there to take a look... the diagnosis will not cost you.

My MacbookPro will not allow me to type in the password to open the computer, the keys make a donging noise when I try to use them ?
If the normal restart doesn't work, and you restart on the recovery hard drive, from the choices of things to do window that appears, select Terminal, and in the Terminal window type: resetpassword and then press enter. You will have a window with the users to choose from to reset the password. Select the one you want and you will be able to reset the password, double entry of course.

My 3GS will not charge. I have tried it from my computer and from a wall socket. I also have tried another computer and a different cable with no luck. My computer doesnt see the device either. I havent had any issues until now. Any ideas?

My macbook pro no longer connects to my TV with the mini dvi to hdmi adapter. A while ago the computer fell down and hit the cable. How can I tell if the computer is working ok. Doesn't show mirroring any more. Was working while watching a movie but when I pulled it out from the computer and put it back in the system would no longer mirrorr the screen on the TV.
The best option is an appointment at an Apple store genius bar. The evaluation will be for FREE!

Macbook Pro will only allow AirPlay to play through iTunes, therefore I can't play songs through Safari. I have tried going on to the Sound settings and selecting AirPort Express but its just jumps back to internal speakers. Its WELL ANNOYING! Any ideas?
Macbook Pro will only allow AirPlay to play through iTunes
This is normal.
To be able to play any audio source on your MacBook Pro, you might want to take a look at an application like Airfoil. More info below:

My Contacts app for macbook pro will not connect with my yahoo and keeps asking for password.
My Contacts app for macbook pro will not connect with my yahoo account and repeatedly asks for yahoo password, any soliutions to this?
This is due to a change in Yahoo's security settings. You need to go into your Yahoo account settings and create a special App Password, then use that password in Contacts to access your account. Same goes for Calendar.

I have a network set up with a main time capsule and airport express. The airport express is configured to extend network. While its fine for our iphones and ipad to connect to the express, I would like the Macbook pro to only connect to the time capsule as it seems to run faster. Any way to do this?
You are extending the 2.4ghz.. as that is the only way you can connect iphones.
But if you have Gen2 or later TC you can setup 5ghz to use a different wireless name to 2.4ghz.. and it is much faster.. you need to be close to the TC though.. like in the same room.
Make sure you download 5.6 airport utility if you haven't already.. go to the wireless options and the extra wireless area.. set a different wireless name (SSID in everybody but apple's book). Then you can deliberately select it. -

My Macbook Pro (5,3) sporadically goes to sleep when the lid is open and in use.
My Macbook Pro (5,3) sporadically goes to sleep when the lid is open and I am actively using it. This problem happens both with OS X 10.7.2 and Windows 7 (64bit), so I don't think it's an OS issue. Has anyone else encountered this? It's still covered under apple care... But I'd rather try to fix it myself before having to bring it in.
Thanks!I wouldn't be surprised if this were the case - it does get hot. However, this happens even when I first open it after having it in sleep mode for an entire night... Do you know how to run the diag tool with OS X 10.7?

My MacBook Pro will not connect to my home wifi but will connect everywhere else. My other Apple devices (I-pad, I-touch, another MacBook Pro) connect to the router without problems. It was working fine but all of a sudden stopped working.Thanks!
try this.
get back into your router's settings and start deleting devices that are not connected to your router.
you can also delete the ones that are connected - they'll connect again.
on the DHCP side of it, increase the amount of users that can connect/log in to your router.
see if that sorts it out for you.
good luck. -
Both my iMac and macbook pro will not connect to a certain web site?
Both my macs (21" new iMac & a 2008 macbook pro) will not connect to foxcycling.co.uk. I know the site is live as I can access on my iphone and ipad.
From what I've read on the forums its a settings issue which probably migrated from the macbook to the iMac when I migrated the data.
Very frustrating ....
Any idea's and simple solutions?
Both systems up to date etcOK, OS X does not include Adobe Flash. The website is probably Flash based. Chrome has Flash incorporated into it. If you want to download and install Flash visit Adobe's website and download Flash for your system.
