  • 2012 Retina Mac Book Pro (Mountain Lion) crashes while using Finder

    I used the Migration Assistant to move over my settings and file from a 2009 Mac Book Pro to a brand new Retina version. Everything was working well until, on the first day, I needed to use the finder to search for photo files on the hard drive. I am updated to the moset current OS X 10.8.2. My old computer was not giving me this problem. I have used to disc utility to check and repair permission. It doesn't matter if I have ten applications open and running or none. It only crashes while searching in the Finder while using the space bar to preview. Thanks for any help on this!

    You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the 13” white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

  • Bought new battery for Mac Book Pro and it won't charge/hold charge...HELP!

    My MBP has been running solely on power adapter for months, I finally bought a replacement battery for my MBP 15" and installed it to charge yesterday. The light on my adapter never turned green. And when I went to unplug it, it immediately powered down, even thought it showed 15% power on the screen. When I press the silver button on the battery all five light up green. What am I doing wrong here?? Also, even if the new battery is in the computer and my power adapter is in the computer still powers down. What next??

    I hope the warranty on your junk battery will be honored. You wouldn't be the first person to be victimized by the sellers of such junk batteries, many of whom have failed to honor their so-called warranties or been completely untraceable when push came to shove.

  • Mac Book Pro Power Adapter with USB charge ports?

    Does anyone make a MBP power adapter with 2 USB charge ports? It seems logical to have one power adapter that charge your MBP, iPhone and iPad all at the same time while minimizing the things one would have to carry on travel.

    Hopefully!
    I said to them "you dont even need to put the ports on the brick itself, put it on that little wall plug adapter thingy... that way if you only want to charge your iOS devices you can leave the brick in the bag!... Fingers crossed and thanks again for the help tjk!
    Best,
    David

  • Qestion: my mac book shuts during my pauses while using keyboard.. first warns with drop down box (restart sleep cancel start).. if i don't hit cancel immediately it shuts down.. any help?

    Question: My computer shuts down while I am pausing briefly during use.. first display drop down box "RESTART, SLEEP, CANCEL, SHUTDOWN" warns me of shutdown coming.. If I do not hit cancel immediately, computer shuts down and I have to employ start up procedure each time.. very annoying.. I must admit that I am a novice user and suspect that there is some simple setting that I am overlooking.. however, I have gone through all the relevant settings in Apple System Preferences and cannot connect with one that solves this problem.. Any help greatly appreciated 

    I think it's time to buy a new battery

  • Mac Book not charging

    My brand new Mac Book does not appear to be charging. The light on the power cord shows "green" but the battery icon in the top bar shows the power source as "battery", not "power adapter" and only 26% remaining. When the unit is off and closed, the power cord blinks "orange".

    If you have a MacBook with the removable battery you can get a new third party battery fairly cheap on eBay. Every MacBook from 2006 through Mid 2009 except the Late 2008 Aluminum Unibody and the Late 2009 and 2010 White Unibodies use the same A1185 battery.

    Removing the battery:
    Shut down the computer. Disconnect any cords connected to the computer.
    Turn the computer over.
    Locate the battery latch on one side of the battery.
    Use a coin to turn the latch a quarter-turn clockwise. The battery should pop up slightly.
    Lift the battery out.
    Installing the battery:
    Place the right side of the battery into the battery compartment at an angle, as shown below.
    Gently press the left side of the battery down until it sits flat.
    While holding the battery down, use a coin to turn the latch a quarter-turn counter-clockwise. The battery should lock into place.

  • Satellite Z830-10 - electric shock while charging

    I've recently bought a Toshiba Satellite Z830-10 from PC World UK. I'm experience constant electric shock when my wrist touch the laptop body while charging with the adaptor. No problem when it is on battery.
    Does anyone having similar problem?
    After some research on the internet, there are some report about laptop with metallic casing when the manufacturer supply with 2 pin plug which does not have earthing.
    Other company have replaced their problematic laptop with 3 pin plugs for all their customer. My adaptor is indeed with 2 pin plug.
    Could the shock by lack of earthing in this case similar to Dell problem?

    Hi
    I would really recommend contacting the Toshiba authorized service partner in your country to check the parts and to fix this issue.
    A friend of mine is an Z830 owner but as far as I know he did not experience any similar issue.

  • HT1338 my mac book pro is constantly "looking for networks" while connected using my home network and other wifi systems. how can i stop it?

    Why is my Mac Book constantly "looking for networks" while i am using wifi?

    If it is constantly searching for networks every five seconds or so, then it is the bluetooth - wifi problem discussed on other threads. I find that system preferences > network and clicking at the bottom on the 'Show wi-fi status in menu bar' button to switch it off, and then back onto the menu bar, solves the problem. Sometimes on waking I lose wi-fi completely and have to reload, but that's infrequent.
    Hopefully Apple will come up with a solution soon.

  • Does my warranty cover the mac book pro charger?

    I got a new Mac Book pro for Christmas and the charger already stopped working. Luckily I had an old one. Anyone know if my warrantly will cover the dead charger? Not trying to spend like 75 bucks on a new one.

    The Mac, so they can corroborate the serial no. and confirm coverage. Can check here:  https://selfsolve.apple.com/GetWarranty.do
    After this experience, consider the benefits of extending the warranty for two more years, post-Xmas, with AppleCare.

  • Mid 2013 Mac Book Pro constantly freezing up and needing a hard restart

    My mid 2012 mac book pro randomly started freezing while in use back in october. I had never had any problems with it and one night the beachball came up and nothing worked until I did a hard restart. Since then it's been happening constantly. I've had the hard drive replaced after being told that it was likely failing and the problem still remains. I've reset the Pram and everything else that can be reset. I reinstalled Lion. I've taken it to the apple store and they ran all the hardware and software test including the over night stress test for hardware and they found nothing wrong. They did a clean install at the store and the problem is still there. It is not program specific (it freezes while using any program or while doing nothing at all), it's not a ram issue. I don't have any apps except those that have come through the app store. I'm not sure what to do with it. It's basically rendered my $1300 computer unusable. Any thoughts. I'm going to try mavericks and see if that helps, have been running lion. From reading other forums it seems like this has happened to others, but it seems like everyone has different answers. Some switched to a different os, others found small hardware issues.

    If it's behaving like the hard drive is bad and it's not, another likely candidate is the SATA cable which connects the drive to the motherboard. An easy way to test this is to take the drive out of the computer, move it to an external housing, and boot it from there by holding down the Option key and selecting that drive when you boot up. If everything runs fine, the SATA cable is the problem.

  • Battery recharger for mac book?

    Is there a battery recharger for Mac Book out side of charging it in the MB via the computer power adapter? My adapter and computer power plug are shot. It will cost a lot to fix. If I am able to recharge the battery I could make use of my MB by getting power from the batties.

    Hi
    Yes that is helpful. Since it is an "older" Mac book pro I ordered a batter charger at http://www.madsonline.com/. Have not received it yet, but hopefully will…. soon

  • Mac book pro keeps freezing could it be a loose disk drive

    I was burning a cd and had my Mac book pro in my hands while i was walking and i tilted a bit while cd was in heard a grinding noise. The next day the white screen if death w question mark appeared i was able to reboot it made it to home screen it seems to be freezing when moved? It's a 2009 and warranty is expired anyone have any suggestions i would appreciate any feedback! Thanks!

    You were walking with it on, and while burning a CD?  Double mistake there.
    Immediately backup with an external HD all your vital data.
    Your words are a bit unclear, can you boot it up now ok?  Freezing when moved is the SMS sensor.
    Your HD is likely dying and walking with it on did it no good after these several years.
    Contact Apple for diagnostic / repair. Your HD likely needs to be replaced.
