I recently got my GPU error fixed, but now my MacBook Pro shuts down whenever I close the lid.
I bought my computer in July 2010. After 3 and a half years I finally discovered there was and an issue. GPU error. Fine. ok. I went to the store and even though they were nice enough to fix it for free, I'm now having another issue. Whenever I shut my computer lid, the screen and keyboard doesn't work. I can hear the computer fans but no matter what I do I can't get the keyboard or screen to work. In order to get it to turn back on, I have to hold down the power button until I hear the inside turn off. Then I have to hold the power button again to turn it back on. DId they give me a faulty part when they fixed it? Or is there something I can do? My computer is in great condition. No scratches, never been dropped, etc. HOW DO I GET MY SCREEN AND KEYBOARD TO WORK?
Try resetting the SMC http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964
If not take it back to where you had the work done.

my band recently got our album on itunes, but now it is saying that the album is unavailable. but the artwork still pops up and everything. people have bought the album and you can even listen to previews of it... but it wont let you click on the album art or title. what's going on?
You would have to talk to itunes or your label about this.
We are itunes store users, not Apple. -
Macbook Pro shutting down. Hardware error code 4MEM/62/40000000:0x7f537f90
Macbook Pro shutting down. Not the same action making it shutdown. Anywhere from being online to attaching a photo to an email to working in Word or Photoshop. Even after it's closed and not being used. I come back to it being shut off and saying it had to restart because of a problem. I ran the Hardware check and got the Hardware error code 4MEM/62/40000000:0x7f537f90.
I must say I am quite disappointed. I have used Mac for work but had a PC since day one, and I JUST got this Macbook Pro in Dec. I was delighted that Mac usually didn't have as many problems with viruses etc as PC. And now last couple days, constantly shutting itself down. The closest store to me is a few hrs away. I am in South Dakota, store is in Minnesota Any help would be appreciated.Can you post a screen shot of About This Mac -> (More Info) -> System Report -> Memory and click on each DIMM and post the bottom right pane. You can also do the same without a screen shot using just text version using the following highlighted command in OSX Terminal. The output is also listed.

I recently did a full reinstall from my time machine and now my MacBook pro won't back up to the time machine. It starts a full backup ignoring the original back up, can anyone help?
Did you follow the instructions on the page linked below?

If you haven't already done so, try this simple step first.

Macbook Pro shutting down randomly but very frequently
Hi guys,
I am having an issue with my unibody macbook pro. Its the 15" 4gb ram, 2.8GHz Core 2 Duo version.
Basically the macbook just shuts down sometimes...like I'll be doing something and it just TURNS OFF!
I have reset the SMC controller, my batt is fine- I just dont understand what is happening?
As I typed this, it happened, but in a slightly different way...the screen goes grey and you get the typical "you need to restart your computer bu holding the power button" etc
The error I got from just now is:

I cannot really afford to take my computer to apple atm as I rely on the macbook for work and I have some real important stuff to be getting on with and cannot be without it right now.
Please can someone help me so I can sort out this really annoying mess!!!
Many thanks guysWelcome to Apple Discussions
Did you upgrade the RAM yourself or is this as you bought it ?
The kernel panics seem to be caused by any issue with the CPU's so this might not be user-fixable and you may need to call AppleCare and have this fixed under warranty (if it is stock/Apple RAM)
+panic(cpu 0 caller 0x28d59c): "pmapflushtlbs() timeout: " "cpu(s) failing to respond to ilterrupts, pmap=0x84b6e0 cpustorespond=0x2"@/SourceCabhe/xnu/xnu-1504.7.4/osfmk/i386/pmap.c:3548+
All I can suggest is that you try the following and see if it helps (it can't hurt)
Boot holding down Apple/S and don't let go until you see scrolling text.
When that stops and you see a root#: prompt enter
fsck -fy
Let it run through all the checks and repairs.
If it fails first time, at any time, or finds and fixes a fault - run the command again and keep doing so (some fixes can take several passes) until it says "Appears to be OK" then enter
reboot -
How can I fix my display that had vertical lines when I open/close the lid?
Just a few minutes ago, as I was adjusting the Macbook's lid, I got a huge vertical line showing on my display. The line goes away after I fiddled with the lid a little. Now, every time I open/close the lid, the lines sometimes pop in and out, always in the same area.
I'm scared the wires connecting to the Macbook's display is loose or something. What can I fix it?
Here's a picture of how it looks like: http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/7683/picture4gj.pngSounds like the LVDS cable might have come loose somewhere or is faulty, would not say it's the LCD just yet. If it's under warranty just take it to any apple store or local service provider. If it's out of warranty I would not suggest taking to an Apple Store because they will just quote you the whole display, but an Apple Service Provider might be able or wiling to attempt to just repair the faulty part in the display(just know your model display does not come apart easily) http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1434 , good luck

My macbook pro 2010 crashes when I open the lid. How do i fix this?
So if I close the lid of my macbook pro and come back to after a while the screen will show but after a few seconds the screen goes black and doesn't entirely shut down as the keyboard is still lit up. This is when it occurs most often but it can also happen randomly.
What specific model MBP do you have and have you made any hardware changes to it? Also, has this always happened with this laptop since you got it? If not, how long has this been going on and do you remember makeing any software/hardware changes to it right before this started to happen?

I have repeatedly tried to update the software 'Security Update 2013-003' on my MacBook Pro OS X Version 10.7.5 but it keeps failing to install, stating that 'an Unexpected Error Occurred'.
Since the update failed the first time, my MacBook Pro has been running extremely slowly and failing to open basic apps like Mail and Safari at times.
All other updates have been successful apart from this one. I have made sure that my MacBook isn't full (emptied Trash etc) but it still runs really slowly at times so I think it's linked with the Security Update failure.
Please help!
*I have tried installing the update from Support Downloads but it says there isn't space on Macintosh to install it. There is 190 GB of free space on that disk so I don't understand that at all.
LION system.I have tried and it downloads successfully but when I install it, it comes up with this:
-
My Macbook shuts down when I put it to sleep.
I would try each of these in order seeing if the problem is solved after each:
1. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM and Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC).
2. Boot into Safe Mode, then reboot normally.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. 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 installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
4. Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. 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 installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.

I just replaced an Airport Express with a new Airport Extreme. My iMac recognizes the external hard disk I have connected to the Airport Extreme, and my Time Machine is backing up to it. But I can't get my MacBook Pro to recognize the disk as available for Time Machine. Both are running Mavericks, and the MacBook is only a couple of months old.
Hey Tim Cargal,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

I have the older 2008 version of the Macbook Pro and since Friday when I closed it and opend it again the screen wouldn't come back on and I'd have to press down the power button and restart the machine again completely. Then when I turned it on it would sound like its powering up but after three seconds it would make the bleeping sound and shut down again, its fully charged and I have taken the battery out and put it back in but nothing is changing, is there a way to solve this problem?

If it sounds like a RAM issue it could be one of the RAM chips has failed. You could try removing the RAM one at a time and see if it starts with one still installed. -
I recently thought I lost my iPhone and I erased it but now that I found it. I cannot get the this iPhone message is lost please call ********* I am out of the country my laptop is at home. I cannot access I tune. How do I fix this. I need to get it back on so I can face time with my family. The phone says 3G but it keeps saying on list mode. I signed on icloud and removed it from the account and nothing. Please help!
If you removed the device from your iCloud account rather than using the "Stop Lost Mode" option, then you will most certainly need to restore the iPhone, and that will require a computer running iTunes.
