Locked macbook pro wiht no cd rom...
Hi All:
I just inherited a Macbook Pro at the office. Unfortunately, it arrived without a OS media or a password.
Can I order a replacement OS DVD from Apple? Is there a trick to reset the password?

Until you get the appropriate OS installer disks you can set up the MBP with a new password and new user (yourself). Follow this:
restart the machine with the Command and S keys held down, and type the following commands into the prompt in order:
mount -uw /
mv /var/db/netinfo/local.nidb /var/db/netinfo/local.nidb.old
mv /var/db/.AppleSetupDone /var/db/.AppleSetupDone.old
usr/libexec/create_nidb
shutdown -h now
The Setup Assistant will reappear the next time your computer is turned on. Be sure to enter the commands properly, as you may damage your setup by making a mistake.

I was listening to a YouTube video on the history of X15 rocket airplanes. All of sudden, out of the blue a translucent back message drops top down, stops the video, locks up my MacBook Pro screen and demands that I restart my lapTop by first holding down my power switch, then turn the lapTop back on. This has never happened to me before. The message was in black & white, and in about 6 languages: English, French, Spanish, Dutch, Japanese, Chinese. Does any one recognize what this might be?
The Computer turned back on just fine as if nothing had Now I am freeking out that they could be reading my key strokes or something. Could they have used this tactic to install malicious software on my computer by first taking away my ability to do anything about it being that I am not a software engineer? Can any one think of anything simillar? I reported this as a bug to APPLE the regular way, then cleared my Safari cookies, then run software update which returned nothing new as in " your software is up to date at this time."
Can any one please help?
A-NmN.Hi stedman1,
Thank you so much. This seems to make sense to me now. I was freaking out a bit that some hacker could be messing with my MacBook Pro. I will be monitoring this issue from now on as it has never happened before.

How to get into locked macbook pro? Keyboard doesn't work.
Hi!
Being the clumsy person I am, I spilled coffee on my Macbook Pro. I love this computer and there is NO apple store within a good distance from me. I am currently locked out of my computer. My R, T and Y keys don't work, and it's a letter in my password. Also since I have no R, T or Y key, i cannot reset to that Utility screen. PLEASE tell me i can get into my computer or change the password somehow. I have another mac to work off of and my iPhone, all computers are set to the same Apple ID but apparently my MacPro isn't registered anymore. Im freaking out.
Please help, this was a graduation gift and I'd like to fix it up.Hello gabby_mccoy and welcome to Apple Support Communities,
Here's my stock answer about your spill:
"Whenever a liquid spill occurs the first thing that has to happen is the laptop should be shut down immediately. All power must be removed as soon as possible. It is especially important that the battery be disconnected and removed.
All affected parts must be removed from the laptop. No attempt should be made to start/restart the computer since this could potentially damage the logic board beyond all repair.
Then all affected parts would be washed in deionized water and blown dry with compressed air. (In a water spill the deionized water is probably not as critical. Depends on the mineral content of the water.) and blown dry with compressed air.This is especially true of the large chips on the logic board. Liquid can wick under them and cause havoc.
The logic board should be placed in a drying/dehumidifing oven for at least two days. Longer depending on the spill.
The keyboard is a separate matter."
Did the coffee have sugar in it? Cream? Both will make the problem worse. -

How protect Macbook Pro Retina Display without Kensington lock
Running out of time. need somthing before going off to school
There are a few different Locks for the Retina Macbook Pro. I had this same problem, however- i had found this and hopefully it will answer your question.
MacLocks Lock and Security Case Bundle. This is a Lock which is basically part of the case for your Macbook. It adds an extra 0.7lbs.

2nd iPod Classic locking up when connecting to MacBook Pro
I'll sum up the lead-in story as best I can.
I have a 2010 MacBook Pro 13". Just got an new iPod Classic a couple weeks back. I discovered that when playing the iQuiz game, I had a few lock-ups (freezing). Then a handful of times, it locked up when connecting it to the MacBook for charging or syncing. It didn't lock up EVERY time. But about 1 out of every 4 syncs on average.
I naturally thought something was wrong with the Classic, and brought it into the Apple store when it was locked up, and they gave me a new one.
But now this one is doing the same thing. Occasional lock-ups when connecting to the MacBook Pro. Doesn't matter which USB port. And doesn't seem to matter if the computer has been on, or if it's a fresh boot.
What could be going on here? I doubt highly that both Classics I've gotten have the same exact issue with occasional lock-ups when connected to the computer. My MBP otherwise has given me no problems. And no problems with other USB devices, ever.
Any ideas?Update: bought a new usb sync cable to try, and no change. the Classic locked up the first try with the new cable.

How to Lock the Screen on a MacBook Pro with Retina
Hello everyone,
I would like to know how to do something to my computer so that the next time I want to get on, I need to enter in a password (I believe that it is called locking).
On a normal MacBook Pro, I believe that simply closing the screen works, but it doesn't work on my Retina display MacBook Pro.
Do you have any advice for me?
Thanks in advance.System Preferences -> Security -> General

Macbook Pro Running Very Slow and Locks Up Often
I am hoping one of the experts on here might be able to help me out!
My MacBook Pro (mid 2010) has really started to run incredibly slow. I am certain I have crap on here I don't need that is causing issues, but I have been unable to troubleshoot what exactly is going on.
I looked through prior discussions: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5437363?start=225&tstart=0 and tried some of the tips there to see if I could improve performance. It didn't seem to work.
I included an EtreCheck below and I can send anything else that might be helpful.
Thanks in advance for trying to help me out!

It is almost to the point where I can not work at all in certain apps as it just freezes.
Steps I have taken:
- Reset the System Management Controller
- Checked the battery cycle count (331)
- Verified and repaired disk and permissions.
- Cleaned up as many things as I could find.
Here is an updated EtreCheck after I did some cleanup myself.
I also have included some of the most recent system logs.

Older Macbook Pro Locking Up Every Few Minutes, Help Troubleshooting Please
Hi Folks,
I've been having problems with the trackpad click-bar acting up, but now suddenly the computer is repeatedly freezing/locking up. Each time I have to use the power button to turn it off, then reboot.
How can I start figuring out what the heck is wrong with it? I'm not even sure what log in console would be useful, if any?? Are there any free or cheap programs that will actually monitor the computer for this sort of problem and record and decipher what is causing the lockups/freezes? Sometimes the screen goes black while the computer is clearly still running, and I cannot get it back without restarting. More often, I'll be in the middle of selecting a menu item, or loading a new tab, or some activity like that, and the screen/computer just freezes, sometimes even with a ghostly image of the drop down menu selection that I'd just selected still showing - and the computer is totally unresponsive to anything, e.g., won't select anything, won't respond to trying to get the finder or system preferences up, just totally frozen. Won't respond to cmd-opt-esc either. Sometimes I'll get the spinning rainbow wheel, rather than no activity, but it will just spin forever, it's not managing to do anything.
Info:
15" macbook pro, probably late 2006/early 2007 model, 2 GHz intel core duo, 2 GB memory, OS X 10.5.8 (e.g., it's NOT under warranty, I'm on my own, and $$s are VERY tight, I need to do everything I can to figure this out myself)
Typically, all I'm doing is browsing the web - so usually all I have open is a magicjack (internet phone), and a web browser. Usually I use firefox (most current version) - but it's locking up even with firefox off and using safari (5.0.4). It does seem to crash faster with firefox, but still far too often with Safari (like every 30 min perhaps instead of 10, this is bad!). In other words, I'm not putting it under heavy load.
It's running off of AC power, not battery (although I gather that a bad battery can still cause problems when running off AC, is that even correct?). I have external speakers plugged into it because often if watching streaming video the volume is too low if just using the computer's speakers. Using cox high speed internet off ethernet.
I've tried letting the computer stay off for 10 min or so then rebooting, it still freezes.
I installed the sophos (sp?) anti-virus, checked the computer, no virus's/trojans/worms.
I don't know where to go from here, please help!CMCSK, if I have installation disks, I can't find them quickly. I've emailed the friend who gave me this computer asking if they recall sending any or not.
In the meantime, I just ran disk utility verify disk permissions and got this:

Permissions verification complete
I ran it still connected to internet, etc., So, in the meantime, until I can find or figure out if I've even got installation disks, I'll go ahead and disconnect everything, reboot normally, then use disk utility to run verify permissions again & assuming it still finds problem, use repair permissions. I've no idea what the SUID warnings mean, or if anything needs to be done about them. -
Everytime I open Safari on my MacBook Pro a pop-up window from my Finder menu, with the Applications highlighted on the left in the favorites column with the Resources folder highlighted comes up and locks my Safari page until I manually close the Resources window then I have to refresh the internet search address line at the top of Safari. Can someone tell me how to stop this. It started after a software upgrade. It didn’t do that before. Thank you.
A few thoughts for diagnosis/testing purposes:
Have you recently run the disk utility and repaired HD and permissions? If not do so.
Boot into the Safe mode - hold down shift key on boot - and see if the problems are still there. Some functions won't work but see if anything odd happens.
Check your startup items. Get rid of them temporarily.
Create a new user account and see if the problems occur with the new account.
Lastly, be sure your backup is up-to-date. -
MacBook Pro (mid-2010) Internal USB HUB freezes/locks up
MacBook Pro (mid-2010) wilth the latest firmware, etc.
OS X 10.9.1
USB KVM to share keyboard and mouse with another computer
This has been working flawlessly until I upgraded to 10.9.1
The KVM uses the Scroll Lock key to toggle the input between the two computers
I switch back and forth many times a day.
Almost once a day now, all my input to my MBP will lock up when switching the KVM over.
The MBP track pad, keyboard, blue tooth Magic Mouse, KVM mouse and keyboard all become unresponsive.
I am assuming that the interal keyboard/track pad/blue tooth transceiver are all tied to an internal USB HUB.
The MBP is up and running and I can ssh into it. The only error message in the log is that the mouse device coming from the KVM is busy and it will be disabled. I have tried to close the lid for several minutes and then re-open, but it does not resolve the issue. I have tried connecting another USB mouse/keyboard during this time and it will not work. I have tried kill -HUP on the usbd and USBAgent processes. Everything stays unresponsive. The only way to resolve this condition is to reboot the MBP. Note: the KVM works find on the other computer when I switch it back and forth regardless of the state of the MBP.
I am suspecting that when this happens it is some how disabling the internal USB HUB, which if all the other devices are connected through it, nothing no longer works (but maybe I am crazy with that thought). Anyone have any insight? Is there a way to reset the internal HUB short of a reboot?
Thanks in advance!I'm seeing the same problem with a 2010 Mac Mini with IOGear KVM and MS wireless mouse. This setup worked flawlessly for years on Snow Leopard but started hanging soon after the Mavericks upgrade. I'm running 10.9.4, currently the latest release. The system usually hangs after a KVM keyboard switch from Windows on the other set of KVM cables back to the Mac Mini. ssh into OSX works fine but a shutdown hangs indefinitely. top showed no processes spinning. The 1st console message after the hang was:
8/6/14 8:49:21.000 PM kernel[0] USBF: 1317978.201 AppleUSBHubPort: Port 2 of Hub at 0x6200000 about to terminate a busy device (Microsoft® 2.4GHz Transceiver v7.0) after waiting 10 seconds
There were no other messages for hours before this. I'm using VM Fusion but I think it hung once without it running. The Windows 7 side of the KVM works fine.
