I have trouble authorizing my MacBook Pro

I have tried to authorize our MacBook Pro but receive a message indicating there are incorrect or missing permissions. I have gone through the steps on Google that involve the Terminal but cannot seem to come up with a Blank Password and have no idea how to go beyond this. Thanks for any help.

Sign into your account in iTunes - from that page you should be able to deauthorise ALL 5 authorised computers - supposedly you can do this once a year.
Thereafter any devices you no longer have will be deauthorised, and you can reauthorise those you still have or are new.

I often have trouble with my MacBook Pro not turning completely on.

I get the tone, the apple, & the spinning ring of dominoes. Then it stops before going to blue.
It has on occasion started when I use one of the key combinations suggested in MacBook for Dummies.
And I've run disk utilities repair about 5 times. Each time it works until the cursor freezes & I have to
Turn it off. Holding down Command, Option, & Escape keys does NOT free it up!
I have started it up on occasion using the OSX installation disk. It doesn't always work either!
What should I try next?

Hi Shootist. I would be interested in hearing some reasoning on this. I almost always use a USB cable to connect my camera to the MBP for transferring pictures, and have moved about 30,000 this way over the last 6 years since my photography went digital. Recently, on the rare occassions when I have only a few to transfer and I was too lazy to go for the cable, I have used the card reader; about half those times I have difficulty getting the MBP to recognise the card. I find I have to press the card very hard into the slot for it to be recognised.
My rationale is quite possibly wrong, but I feel that the USB connectors are more robust and hard-wearing than the flimsy connectors on an SD card. Also, I haven't measured it, but I think the data transfer is faster with the cable. (I just came across this test, which reports noticeably faster transfer for cable than built-in card reader, but the computer was a PC)

I'm being shown an error pop-up message periodically saying "There was a problem connecting to the server. URLs with the type 'file:' are not supported." I have a brand new MacBook Pro, and at no time am I actually having trouble connecting to the server.

I have a brand new MacBook Pro, and at no time am I actually having trouble connecting to the server, but this message continues to pop-up several times a day at random intervals. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Or is my computer just having a glitch? Other than that, and a mildly sticking caps lock button, it's working perfectly.
Thank you!

Alright it didn't solve it. Any other suggestions?
I haven't suggested a solution yet. I want to know whether you still get the messages while Time Machine is disabled. Do you? If so, try any or all of the solutions proposed in this thread:

Trouble registering my MacBook Pro

Hi everyone..I'm having a bit of a trouble registering my MacBook Pro. First, I've gone to the registration page https://register.apple.com/, and filled out all details. In finishing I got a message saying I would get an email confirming the registration. Days later, no email.
So I go to the check warranty status page https://selfsolve.apple.com/GetWarranty.do, and enter my MacBook's serial number. It says it is under limited warranty, which seems ok. I click on "more information", and it says the computer is NOT registered. Weird
So I click on the link on that very same page to re-register, and in finishing I get a message saying the registration cannot be processed at this time.
I have been at this routine 4 or 5 times now, and don't know why it is that I get that error...Is my computer registered? Will I have trouble asking for servicing?
Thanks in advance

AAAARRRGGGHHH! This is maddening. I went through the same endless loops that the first guy on this thread went through. Apple takes you to a page where you are supposed to be able to initiate a phone call back, but it just takes me on loops back to the same page, and I keep getting that dumb message saying they can't provide service at this time. Just what is their online service supposed to be for if it isn't to solve problems. I guess I'll have to be on the phone the next hour on-hold trying to get through to a human being at Apple. And then they will probably want to charge me just to modify my warranty information.

Trouble with my MacBook Pro OS X snow leopard

I am having trouble with my MacBook Pro. I get a blank screen with a flashing document file with a question mark in it, yes I have tried to install Mac OS X with the original disk but I get no choices of where I wish to install Mac OS X. Please help ;(

Start up from the install disk. Don't start an install: from the Utilities menu choose Disk Utility. Select your internal hard disk (if you can) in the sidebar and click 'Repair disk'. Wait for the process to complete.
It's possible that the disk has failed. If Disk Utility is unable to complete a repair then you will need the services of an Apple-certified technician.

I used the digital download from my purchased Blu-Rays and they will not sync with either my iPad or iPhone 4, saying they did not transfer because I am not authorized on this computer. I tried de-authorizing and re-authorized my MacBook Pro already

I just got a Touch 32GB yesterday and ran into the same problem. I have two PCs in the house that I can sync my iPods on, but I normally use one that DOESN'T have an internet connection, so that the one that does is free for others to use ... a great argument and tension solution, btw.
Anyway, I hooked up the older "iTunes" PC to the net for a first-time sync with the Touch, and ran into this problem. First it kept detecting the Touch as an unidentified iPhone, then I couldn't sync my classic either. Then I found a post here about how when multiple USB ports running off same USB controller seem to screw with the Touch/iPhone syncing.
So I disconnected all but 2 of my USB 2.0 slots (the Touch & the Portable HD with my iTunes Library) and now it's working perfectly. I don't know if this will solve your problem, but it might be worth a try.

I have a mid 2010 Macbook Pro, How can I install Windows 7 without an Optical Drive?

For clarity: I have a mid 2010, Macbook Pro. I recently decided to upgrade to a Crucial SSD drive, double the ram (8 gigs), and remove the optical drive in favor of using my old drive as a back up. I am also currently running Yosemite.
I want to install Windows 7 onto my SSD, using bootcamp. Unfortunately I no longer have an optical drive installed, which makes things difficult as Bootcamp does not even give me the option to create a bootable USB.
Now, this is where things get kinda fuzzy:
MId 2010 macbooks use EFI, and are quite capable of booting from USB. How do I know? Because I booted from a USB drive in order to do a fresh install of Yosemite on my SSD.
I have read mutliple forums and threads with claims that folks have had no problems doing this on 2008 Macbook Pros running Snow Leopard. However, what seemed to be required was some clever .plist modding. I have used both text wrangler, and x-code to do this, unfortunately upon booting of bootcamp, bootcamp instantly crashes. Naturally, I can restore bootcamp because I made backups of the .plist file.
It would seem that modffying the .plist file assumes that the option to create a bootable USB device is grayed out. In my case, it is non existent.
I have also read that folks have had success using rEFIt, however rEFIt has been forked to rEFIned, and the developer of rEFIned made mention on his site that Yosemite handles booting differently than previous versions of OSX.
WIth that, I was hoping that some kind person could explain to me whats going on, what I am missing, and what I can do to make this happen just shy of tearing down my MBP and reisntalling the Optical Drive and dusting off my Win 7 disc.
Also, my Model Number/Bootrom is MBP 6,2.
Thanks in advance!

Thank you for your reply, and the information. This is what I came up with:
I added the strings as instructed, however when I went to sign the script in terminal, I was told:
/Applications/Utilities/Boot Camp Assistant.app: replacing existing signature
/Applications/Utilities/Boot Camp Assistant.app: code object is not signed at all
In subcomponent: /Applications/Utilities/Boot Camp Assistant.app/Contents/info.plist
Also, here are screen captures of the lines that I added. Mine are the top string entries:
Thank you for your help, thus far!

I have a mid 2009 MacBook Pro 5,3 Unibody that won't run anything past Leopard.

I have a mid 2009 MacBook Pro 5,3 Unibody that suffered a minor liquid spill. After waiting for it to dry out, we found that it powers up (but the display doesn't work unless connected to an external monitor) just fine. For several months it worked like a tank running Snow Leopard. I upgraded to Lion with no problems. Once the 10.7.1 update came out, it completely flipped out and wouldn't finish the install. I was forced to take it all the way back to Leopard and now it won't upgrade past Leopard. I replaced the hard drive completely and tried a fresh install of Lion using the thumb drive and that didn't work either. I got the set of errors you will find below. (Sorry, I don't know how to hide them like you can in some forums.) Any ideas or suggestions on why it won't install Lion would be great. I'm not so concerned about the display as wondering why it worked for 4 months and then another month on Lion and then suddenly flipped out on me. I'm not knowledgeable enough to decipher the message below.

Might have a hardware issue that was caused by the minor liquid spill.
Take it to Apple to have them look at it. I think they do a free diagnostics. That way you can find out what's wrong with your MB.
Good luck....Hope you get it sorted out.

I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the Component and Audio ports on my TV?

Will not work. To my knowledge, dual converting like that isn't supported. The Mac must detect the connected video output device and that sort of info cannot be done across an analog component uni-directional connection.

I have a early 2011 Macbook pro 13 inch, I'm running Lion 10.7.4, and i want to upgrade to 10.8 Mountain Lion. Is it safe for my computer or are people experiencing problems with displays and Battery life?

Do Not post stuff about how Airplay doesnt work, because i dont have Apple TV and dont need to hear about it.

If you have an external drive equal to or larger than your internal HD, clone your internal to it with either Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper. Test the clone to make sure it's bootable. Then upgrade either one. Try it out first.

I have trouble authorizing my MacBook Pro
