Issues with installing OSX Version 10.9.2 on MacBook Pro Mid 2009
I received an update notification OSX Version 10.9.2 when I follow the process for updates I get message that "Updates not installed and some updates could not be installed automatically"! Is there a problem wit this version?
Hey, I do not have the exact same problem but trying to update to 10.9.2 causes my macbook to be stucked in black screen + curser after boot up. I have looked through forums for an answer but nothing worked for me (such as reboot, reset NVRAM, disk verification, disk/permission repair, password entry, control-option-command+8, fresh osx 10.9.2 install). To be sure that my disk is properly working, I have installed the original snow leopard os, this worked fine. I also could access the recovery console.
To be able to use my mac I have now restored to 10.9.1 from my TM backup. Dont know if I should report this strange behaviour to Apple. Maybe there are others who have discovered the same issue?
Let me know pls.
cheers.

i see that i have a problem after installing my new hard drive on my macbook pro mid 2009 version. I put a new hard drive, with all of my information from my old drive installed on it, into the computer. but now have the blinking question mark folder. I see that it means that it isn't reading the new hard drive.
did i miss a step between transferring all of my information from my old hard drive to the new hard drive and installing the new hard drive into the computer. I believe that i installed properly. it was quite easy.
thanks for your helpIt means there is no bootable system on the drive. If you still have access to the old drive, then I suggest you boot from it then clone it to the new internal drive. Use OPTION boot to boot from the Recovery HD on the old drive:
Boot to the Recovery HD:
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.
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu then press the Continue
button.
2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it
to the Destination entry field.
5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
the Source entry field.
6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Source means the external old drive. Destination means the new internal drive. -
Issue with installing updated adobe flash player to my macbook pro
I have been attempting to update the adobe flash player on my macbook pro for some time now with no success. The installation gets to over 90% complete before a message popping up saying to close safari--which, but this doesn't help. I have read several other similar issues but am yet to find a suggestion that works.
any ideas?
thank you

So I've wanted more space on my computer for sometime now and I figured a 1TB drive would be a nice upgrade from the 320GB that came with my computer. Now the trouble is my CPU is running at high rate, 70 to 90%. Everything is over heating, even when no programs are running. It got to the point where I had to put the old drive back in. The hard drive that my computer came with is a Toshiba MK3265GSXF 320GB SATA/300 5400RPM 8MB 2.5" Hard Drive. The one I want to put into my computer is; Western Digital Blue 1 TB Mobile Hard Drive: 2.5 Inch, 5400 RPM, SATA II, 8 MB Cache - WD10JPVT. So as far as I can tell the only really big difference between the two is the storage.
Does anybody have any idea why it would over heat like this? Please help!It means there is no bootable system on the drive.

Yosemite Issues on Macbook Pro mid 2009
I have a macbook pro with a 2.8 Intel Core 2 Duo and 4 GB of Memory. I have more than enough HD space. Ever since I upgraded to Yosemite, I have been having issues with running my mac. It runs super slow, every program takes 5 minutes to open. If I open iTunes and iPhoto, I might as well walk away and come back later.
This issue only started happening with Yosemite. Is my system to old to handle it? Do I need to upgrade or what can I do. I'm a web designer and user Photoshop and all of the adobe programs a lot. I can't sit and wait 10 minutes to open a program, please help.
Thanks,

Can intel 520 series SSD be installed in macbook pro mid 2009
This is some of the information for the 180g SSD I want to replace my HD in my 13" macbook pro mid 2009
25nm NAND Flash Memory
2.5” form factor
SATA 6.0 Gb/s performance
My computer though has this information for its hard drive:
Product: MCP79 AHCI
Link Speed: 3 Gigabit
Negotiated Link Speed: 1.5 Gigabit
Description: AHCI Version 1.20 Supported
I know that the SATA 6.0 will be backwards compatible with my connection, but I was wondering if I am going to hit any problems. I am going to do a full time machine backup so I can have everything cloned onto the SSD, but want to know before I buy the SSDRecently installed same type of SSD (Intel 520 120GB) in our 2010 Macbook (white) and runs just as well as its big bro. No problems at all. Storage isn't an issue since most stuff's in the cloud these days and we carry large files around on a USB stick. Way to go!

Negotiated Link Speed on MacBook Pro mid-2009 with Kingston SSDNow v300
Hi,
I have a mid-2009 MacBook Pro (13") with Kingston SSDNow v300 SSD drive with Mavericks OS X installed.
I've noticed from different forums that many users have the same problem that I have: SSD drive's Negotiated Link Speed is only 1,5 Gbps, although MacBook Pro mid-2009 should support 3 Gbps speed.
My system has EFI 1.7 firmware update (MBP55.00AC.B03) installed in and System Info says that 3 Gbps Link Speed should be possible:
NVidia MCP79 AHCI:
Vendor: NVidia
Product: MCP79 AHCI
Link Speed: 3 Gigabit
Negotiated Link Speed: 1.5 Gigabit
Physical Interconnect: SATA
Description: AHCI Version 1.20 Supported
Many users have tried to reset NVRAM and SMC and I have also done these steps, but with not any improvement.
Some users have mentioned that MacBook Pro mid-2009 has a poor SATA ACHI chipset (NVidia MCP79) and SATA III SSD drives won't work on SATA II speed unless SSD drive is forced to work on SATA II speed by firmware update or by some tweaking tool. Is there this kind of tool available for Kingston SSDNow v300?
One user says that he got 3 Gbps Negotiated Link Speed on Mountain Lion, but after installing Mavericks, speed dropped to 1,5 Gbps (https://discussions.apple.com/message/23549859#23549859).
So, is there any way to get Negotiated Link Speed to work on 3 Gbps on Kingston SSDNow v300 with MacBook Pro mid-2009 (for example by installing an older version of Mac OS X) or do I have to buy a new SSD drive from another manufacturer to get 3 Gbps Negotiated Link Speed to work on my machine?
If the last option (to buy a new SSD drive) is the only option, would it be wise to look for an older model, a SATA II drive, (maybe OCZ Vertex 2) to get 3 Gbps speed?
Thanks!Hi
I was just as frustated as you after installing the Kingston v300. I mean it's a solidly built drive with the reliability of kingston (I've been using their RAM for years and years in my desktop PC without problems). Unfortunately, for a the last 3 months I had it in my 2009 unibody white macbook, it was stuck at link speed 1.5.
I've been searching in forums since then without any solution. Even the update for bios is not available for my model.
I just tried the SMC reset after reading the blog.
http://thenextweb.com/lifehacks/2010/12/04/how-when-why-to-reset-the-pram-smc-on -your-mac/#!w3XEY
On reboot, everything seemed faster, so I checked the negotiated link speed and it was at 3 instead of 1.5! Yay! Then I checked the disk transfer speed on Blackmagic Disk speed test and it roughly doubled from 138 to 260MB/s. Now, I'm not going to shutdown or restart...
I hope this post is useful for people like me stuck at 1.5 Gbps speed. Good luck -
How to make a MacBook Pro (mid 2009) work properly with a 3M Streaming projector?
Ok, so I have a MacBook Pro (mid 2009), a 3M Streaming projector and very annoying problem.
When I connect my MacBook Pro with a Mini Displayport to HDMI adapter to the 3M projector, I get a pink tint, like a filter over the image, it’s very frustrating.
This are the tests I’ve done:
1. I tried the adaptor and the projector on a different (more recent) Mac -> It worked fine.
2. I tried connecting my MacBook Pro to a different not HDMI but VGA projector -> It worked fine.
3. I used some Terminal code I found on the web to force the Mac to send RGB signal, don’t know if that has anything to do with it, but I tried anyway -> Didn’t work
So I’m confused, it’s not the physical port of my MacBook cause it worked fine with a VGA projector, It’s no the 3M projector and it’s not the Mini Displayport to HDMI adaptor cause it worked fine on a different Mac.
So what is it?
I’m totally desperate, I haven’t been able to solve this problem, so if you guys can help me you will be my heroes.
Thanks.
– 13" MacBook Pro (mid 2009) runing Mavericks.
– 3M Streaming projector Powered by Roku.Yes as Clinton says this is correct.
I've used a Sata to USB connector which is only a few pounds instead of an enclosure for the clone, but then I wasn't keeping mt old HDD. But that's an option if you don't need it.
I also use Carbon copy cloner as this will clone your recovery partition as well. Apples disk utility will also clone drives but I'm not sure that it copy's the recovery partition.
I highly redomend my Samsung 840 pro 256Gb - it's about the fastest drive you'll get (nearly) but is backed by Samsung's unrivaled SSD reliability and 5 year warranty. I've also used an 840 basic model on an older macbook and was equally pleased.
Crucial's drives are reliable mac friendly drives but are somewhat slower on the write speeds vs the 840 Pro.
I'd avoid OCZ drives due to so many failures across their range although they do have great reviews and some models just edge the Pro on speed although it's fairly negligible.
As Clinton says, avoid the Samsung Evo drive. I wanted to buy this drive as it is a great drive - but there are many users that have had compatibility issues with it when installed in a Mac. This may rectified on a future firmware update possibly, but until it's proven I would avoid it for now. -
Can i install 1TB to macbook pro mid 2009
hello,
i have a macbook pro mid 2009, 2.66ghz 2 duo and i want to install a new HDD
can i install 1TB??
what is the biggest HDD storage that the notebook can handle??
and how do i install my mac os x to the new HDD?
thank you.The MacBook Pro's take 2.5" SATA hard drives. If you are going to replace the drive, now would be the time to upgrade to a 7200rpm drive; about the largest capacity you will find is 750GB. Also, since this will be your main hard drive, stay away from any green or blue drives; the supposed energy saving features will also reduce performance. May I suggest looking at OWC for their recommendations about hard drives for your specific model MBP.
You install OS X via the recovery DVDs that came with your MBP. One is for OS X, the other contains the Apple applications (iLife, etc). Of course, that will install the version of OS X that originally came with your MBP (a 2009 MBP probably came with Leopard 10.5). If you don't have the recovery DVDs, or want to install a later version of OS X, then I suppose you will need to purchase a Snow Leopard DVD and install that before upgrading to Mt. Lion. -

I did the SMC reset and that did shut down the computer (did not notice if the power adaptor lite blinked) when pushed power button (after waiting approx. 30sec.) to see if computer would display same message -- it did! Here is report:

How do I install windows 7 on a macbook pro mid 2009 using bootcamp and no optical drive?
How do I install windows 7 on a macbook pro mid 2009 using bootcamp and no optical drive?
My optical drive is non-functional and I want to dual boot with win7. The only problem is my macbook does not boot from USB at all, even when I hold th ALT key down when it is starting up.
-I have a flashdrive with win7 on it.
-I mounted the ISO of win7 with toast for bootcamp to do its thing.Good luck.
Consider this a bump so that hopefully someone with better news spots your thread.

Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You must purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
Snow Leopard General Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
2. 1GB of memory
3. 5GB of available disk space
4. DVD drive for installation
5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
fees may apply.
6. Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and
terms apply. -
I don't have any sound and can't adjust the brightness Macbook Pro Mid 2009 with Windows 7 64bit
I installed Windows 7 Professional 64 bit in my Macbook Pro Mid 2009 using Bootcamp 5.1.2 and from the beginning the sound is not working and cant adjust the brightness either. Tried installing all the drivers that people recommended from Realtek, nVidia and nothing has help me fixed the problem. is there a way that i could fix those problems?
Look in the Boot Camp system requirements located here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634
Find your computer model and year. I think you will find that you should be using version 4 of the Windows support software.

Help on installing Snow Leopard on Macbook pro mid 2009
I have macbook pro mid 2009 with 10.5.8 upgrade as latest. I am planning to install snow leopard on it. However before i do that i will upgrade the hard disk to 500gb and ram to 8 gb. As i never done reinstalling os on mac My question is
Should i install the original os first (which is leopard) and then upgrade it to snow leopard and backup my files from time machine ?
or
Can i just install snow leopard and back up my files from time machine?
Thanks for your answers in advanceI would upgrade your system to Snow Leopard first, then backup the entire system to Time Machine. Then upgrade your hard drive install Mac OS X 10.6 then on the set up screen (Do You Already Own a Mac?" click the button that states "from a Time Machine backup".

I use my iMac as a computer and music server. I have it connected via USB and SPDIF to my audio system, and access my music files with the Remote app on my iPhone. It works fine except when the Remote app occasionally wants to take a brief break.
