13" late 2011 MacBook Pro has frozen after Yosemite installation. I can, however, boot from a clone of my MacBook Air that is on an external drive. Despite the fact that I can boot from the external, could it be the RAM that's the prob

My daughter's 13" late 2011 MacBook Pro has frozen (null sign displays) after Yosemite installation. I can, however, boot from a clone of my MacBook Air that is on an external drive. I reinstalled Yosemite on the MBP HD, but it still hangs in mid install. Despite the fact that I can boot from the external, could it be the RAM that's the problem? I'd happily put 8 GB in if it seems probable that would solve the problem. I've tried all the suggested procedures that I've seen posted here. Disk Utility, and my older version of DiskWarrior indicate the HD is OK. I have DiskWarrior 5 on order.

Boot the MBP with the OPTION key down. If successful, you should see two HDD icons, Select the recovery partition (on the right).
From the 4 option menu select Disk Utility.
Run Disk Utility>First Aid, Verify and Repair.
If the disk cannot be repaired, it will have to be replaced.

MacBook Pro wont start after 10.8.3 update

So I tired installing the 10.8.3 update from the app store and every time I did it I got the response that it wasn't downloaded properly, first on bad Internet at my house, then at school I used the really fast Internet and it was the same problem. Then I came here found that a bunch of people had the same problem, so I downloaded the combo update from apple.com from a recommendation by someone here
Now its one big shitstorm, after taking a half hour to install on my MacBook Pro ( its a 13 inch i got last august so its brand new), during the install I was on chrome and it kept freezing about 75% of the install complete I tried to shut every program running, that just froze the entire computer for about 5 minutes, let it finish and it said it needed to restart. It said that something couldn't close and it needed to be force quit, so I did that and let it restart.
It turned off, and started the loading screen with the apple and the gear below it spinning, then it froze, a half hour later it didn't change, i shut it off by holding down the power button and tried to start it again now it will go until the screen with the apple and spinning gear comes and then it will just shut itself off after about 2 minutes, tried safe mode, the bar at the bottom will load about 40% then it shuts off,
What do I do now, anything on my own? can i try and take it into the apple store or did I probably loose everything?

It sounds like your internal drive is failing, or has failed. What backups do you have?

Macbook pro not starting after sleep

Dear Community,
I have a macbook pro purchased about 3 years ago. Since last couple of months, it wouldn't want to wake up after putting to sleep. I had to turn it off and then back on. One fine day, it just wouldn't wake up. I went through all the resets with different key combinations but to no avail . Finally i went to an apple store (not from the shop i got it); i was bluntly declined saying they accept laptops for repair/check only if the product had been purchased at their shop. I tried other and samething. I didn't expect this treatment. Finally found an Apple certified service center. They even charged me to check it (don't know if that's normal. If it is, apologize for my naivity) and finally told me the problem - the logic board needs to be replaced! The cost of which is as you can imagine, is extremely high (around 550 euros + extra for work + tax - it is high for me ).
I changed from pc to mac hoping better services/products. But I must say I am really disappointed by this . Spending a lot to get a product like this and then such dissapointment.
Sorry Apple, but that's not what I was expecting .
A sad ex-mac user.
P.S: I didn't know where else I could share my frustration.

Noisy left fan on brand new MacBook Pro 15" (started after 4 days)

The left fan (just under the speaker) is making noise, sounds as if it's catching on the casing or something.
Problem is, the Macbook is non-standard (hig-res matte display) and I need it painfully much for the next two monts - it was bought specifically for the purpose of major jobs.
Is it possible to have it fixed in a day or two or does it require ages and ages?
Thanks!

My MBP (Mid 2009) just started doing this on the left side, and I've had it apart several times trying to clean and re-lubricate that fan. The sound is not as bad now, but the increased fan noise is still present and I'll be shelling out $50 for a new one probably tomorrow. I'm putting up a YouTube video so you can hear the awful noise it was making last night (harbinger75 movies there).
Mine's not under warranty anymore, and I've been a Mac/PC tech for years, so it takes all of fifteen minutes to change one out.
Hopefully, they'll just replace the fan for you.

HT1270 Macbook pro wont start after changing memory...

Hi! I have a 13 inch mac book pro late 2010 and i just intalled the new ram sticks but its not starting up properly. It never leaves the white page with the gray apple and turning wheel... I bought the DDR3 pc3-10666 instead of pc3-8500... Is that why?
Please help!

"... I bought the DDR3 pc3-10666 instead of pc3-8500... Is that why?"
Please help!
Most likely, yes. Macs are quite fussy about RAM specs. Return the new RAM and purchase the correct type/size.
Maximum Memory 8.0 GB
Memory Slots 2 - 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM

If an SMC reset does not solve the issue, then bring the MBP to an Apple store genius bar for a free diagnosis:

Macbook pro doent start

macbook pro doesnt start, comes with question mark. I do not have the recovery disc anymore.

Your computer can't find a boot drive. It's possible that your hard drive is dead/dying or that your MBP has simply 'forgotten' your startup drive. Try rebooting while holding down the option key and see if your internal drive shows up as an option to boot from.
You really need to have a copy of the installation disc(s) that came with your MBP. You can order a set by calling Apple - I don't know the number, but there's a store in Amserdam - http://www.apple.com/nl/retail/amsterdam/.

On starting up, my macbook pro shuts down after 25 seconds of booting up.

Hi there. On starting up, my macbook pro shuts down after 25 seconds of booting up. The time bar comes on for a while before it simply goes blank and switches off without any notification. Battery iappears charged. Could it be a virus? Help please!! O

Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, 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.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. 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 then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

My early 2011 Macbook Pro on start up has wifi, but drops it soon after and never comes back, AHT shows nothing wrong. Multiple wifi's tried and same on all.

My early 2011 Macbook Pro on start up has wifi, but drops it soon after and never comes back, AHT shows nothing wrong. Multiple wifi's tried and same on all. I have also re-installed OSX from scratch and still happens.

I have the same problem. I have a white macbook 2010, with mavericks os. I just found my mac not powering on and then I tried to run it on safe mode by holding the shift button but it will turn off seconds after I let go of the shift button. I am able to access the desktop and use it while holding the shift button the whole time. It's a bit slower than before but I figured maybe it's because of holding down shift button.
I went to the Apple Store to have them look at my mac and I was told it's a failed hard disk. I wasn't told why he was able to conclude that a failed hard disk is causing the problem, I was just told to get a replacement. But the thing is when I ran Disk Utility it says, "disk appears to be okay." So I also feel like it's possible it's not a hard disk issue because it's also the first time it happened. My mac was working perfectly fine before all this.
Do you know anything else that could cause this problem? Were you able to find out what's wrong?
Thanks.

My mac book pro doesnt start up after a small flash in jack when plugged in

my mac book pro doesnt start up after a small flash in jack when plugged in

It's a mac book pro 17", OS X 10,5 . It worked perfectly but when I (or actually my friend) plugged the jack into the wall outlet it came a small flash (in the wall outlet) and then it didn't start up. No sound, no light on the screen. I didn't actually see what happened, but I asked if she plugged it in with the magsafe wire still attached to the computer, and she believed she might have. Is there anything to do? I have a couple of mac computers, two other mac book pro (writing on the newest one now - 13" - late 2011 - OS X Lion 10.7.5), if it could help.

I cannot start my MacBook Pro 15" even after many try's. Could it be due to not ejecting my external hard drive, or have just installed the airport express. Urgent help would be appreciated.
