MacBook Pro mirror broken help!!!!

I have just downloaded the newest operating system and my mac book pro will not connect to air play mirror through my apple tv. please help!!!!

As I found out after the upgrade to ML, the airplay mirror will only work on 2011 or new systems. So I do not know how old yous is, but for mine as a 2007 model it will not work. Yes I'm a little upset because on ALL the splash screens on the airplay mirror as a new feature, it says nothing about the limitations. You have to go elsewhere to find the tech specks on it.

  • HT204406 iTunes Match saying I'm limited to 5 devices...but I don't have 5 devices and won't work on my MacBook Pro. Please Help!

    I've just got a new MacBook Pro, and want to have iTunes Match on it. But when I go to 'add this computer' in iTunes on the MacBook, a message comes up saying I've reached my limit of Match being on 5 devices. This makes no sense because I only have match on my iPad and my old Windows laptop and nothing else.
    Out of curiosity, I turned off iTunes Match on my iPad to see what would happen, but I still cannot get Match on my MacBook Pro.
    Please help!

    Do a backup before proceeding.
    Try putting the 10.6.3 disk in the computer. During a restart, hold down the option/alt key, select the disk, and see if you can boot from there. If so, select the language, then go to the Utilities menu, and select Disk Utility. Check to see what partition scheme you have by selecting the hard drive.
    If you don't have GUID, you are going to need to erase the drive and reformat, which will cause you to lose all your data. Did I mention doing a backup?
    If you do have GUID, run Disk Utility repair disk and repair permissions. You may have to do this more than once. Then try in install 10.6.3.
    If successful, use the combo update to get to 10.6.8 and then run Software update until there are no more updates.

  • My Airport Extreme cannot be discovered by my macbook pro. Need help., My Airport Extreme cannot be discovered by my macbook pro. Need help.

    My Airport Extreme cannot be discovered by my macbook pro. Need help.

    New, out of the box, the AirPort Extreme is broadcasting a wireless signal with a name like Apple Network xxxxxx.
    If you want to configure the AirPort Extreme using wireless, you must log on to this network first from your Mac.
    Click the AirPort icon at the top of the screen, click Join Other Network, click Show Networks, select the Apple Network xxxxxx and log on. No password is required. Then open AirPort Utility.
    Or
    If you have a spare Ethernet cable handy, connect it from your Mac to one of the LAN <-> ports on the AirPort Extreme to establish a direct connection. Then open AirPort Utility.

  • I am getting white screen of death on my Macbook Pro, can someone help please?

    I am getting white screen of death on my Macbook Pro, can someone help please?

    Intermittent or inconsistent situations as you describe are the most difficult to resolve.  First step you should do is be certain that you have your data backed up.  I suggest that you do this by creating a bootable clone using Carbon Copy Cloner.  The advantage to this is that not only is it a backup but can immediately be used to run your MBP in the event of an internal HHD failure.
    The article that I gave you to start your search contains a link to this article:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3353
    Though lengthy, it can resolve most issues if you go through all of the sections.  If you cannot achieve success, then an Apple store genius bar is the last option.
    Ciao.

    There's a new driver bundle for OSX 10.6 that you might need to install, the HP link seems to be failing at the moment but there's a version of it here: HP_Installer_Scanjet_v2.4.3_Ph4.dmg

  • Macbook pro retina broken!!!

    I just bought this Macbook pro 13'' retina a week ago
    The display broken like this (Video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ec-G2X9YMV4 )
    What can I do next ?

    Hello there,
    I just had a look to your retina display and i think and i am quite sure its't your display causing the problem. It be either of these two problem:
    1. There could be some software issue which can easily be fixed by reinstalling the OS X.
    2. It could be your Iris Pro graphics, it might not be working well which is a hardware problem. Does it happen to all the programs on your Mac? Have a close look. If i happens only when browsing try using some other internet browser and check the exact same website where you previously had issues in. If seems the problem hasn't been solved run on built system diagnostic and see if there is any code. Check this links which will help to understand the program. Using Apple Diagnostics. If get any code after the diagnostic has been done go to this page to check what does your code mean Apple Diagnostics: Reference codes .
    *NOTE: If you have any graphics failure the only way to get this fixed is by changing the logic board!
    Hope it helps.
    Regards.

  • Macbook pro freezes constantly -HELP

    Please please help. It's driving me nuts. My macbook pro early 2011 started freezing, with lines on the screen and I am have to force shut down evertime.
    It first started happening about a month ago, like 3 times in a row in one hour, then I followed a series of procedures that I found here in the forums and stoped, then since yesterday started happening again, and the computer doesn't last more than 10 min without freezing. without doing anything in particular, like just using chrome.
    I have started up in safe-mode, I have used disk utility etc.
    Note: I installed 2 new memories of 8GB each..could it be this?
    Can anyone suggest anything before I have to take it to an apple store? I live in Rio de Janeiro and they take 15 days just to inspect the computer! I can't be this long without computer!!
    Many thanks in advance

    It's not unusual for problems in RAM to show up intermittently after installing it.
    Lines on the screen is usual for such a recent issue machine that's broken in already, unless it was abused or overheated, or subjected to a lot of dust clogging the cooling fins behind the fans.
    Run a extended Hardware Test overnight, if the RAM is the problem it might find it.
    Apple: Hardware Test
    Need to have a Internet connection,  hold the D key down for quite some time while booting the machine to load it from Apple's servers.
    You also can use MemTest or Rember with no other programs running to ensure most of the RAM is being accessed.
    http://www.kelleycomputing.net/Rember/
    Replace the factory RAM, and if you have to return the new RAM, make sure to buy from a qaulity vendor like Crucial.com or OtherWorld computing which TEST the RAM to make sure it works as intended the first time.
    PC RAM or discount RAM can be very problemic and just cost more in shipping and labor, especially on a Mac laptop.

  • Completed wrecked my Macbook Pro! Please help

    Alright, this situation cannot be understated, my macbook is completely wrecked, and I desperately need help.
    I'm not very "tech-savvy" and am not too sure on all the lingo, so please bare with me.
    Earlier today, I installed Windows XP Proffessional 2002 onto my MacBook Pro, I did not do this through bootcamp as it wouldn't allow me to. Now after I installed it, I could only use Windows. I presume that I must have overridden the OS Lion paritions (whatever these are). Now, I managed to figure out that Command+R thing, and have run into more problems, when I go through the install thing, it then says at the end to chose a disc.
    The only option is called untitled, however this says: "This disc doesn't use the GUID Partition Table Scheme, and basically says I can't do it.
    Now, after some searching I was told to go into Disk Utility to resolve this. I will explain what I have in disk utility.
    The left side looks exactly like this:
    500.11 GB Toshiba MK5065GSXF
           Untitled
    SuperDrive (Greyed out)
    disk1
         Mac OS X Base System
    Apparently on the 500.11 GB Toshiba bit, it should have the Partition Map Scheme as the GUID thingy, however it has "Master Boot Record".
    The "Options" inside the partitions tab is greyed out as well, and cannot be clicked.
    Also, the other option is to restore from a backup, however I never made one. My mother also has a Macbook Pro, would it be possible for me to backup hers and use that backup?
    Please somebody help me! I don't know what to do and I'm freaking out that I've broken it.

    You need to boot using Command+r again and then use Disk Utility to erase that Windows XP partition and more then likely Repartitioin the complete drive. As I think the Command+r you are using is booting the computer from the Apple internet servers using the Online Lion Recovery HD system. Because if you Re-Partitioined the drive to install Windows XP and do not now have the drive set up with a GUID partition table you can not have the Recovery HD partition on your internal drive. Then format it Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and give the name of Macintosh HD, Click the Option button and make sure the drive Partition Table is set to GUID, then click Apply.
    Yes that will Wipe Out the Windows XP you installed (which In My Honest Opinion you should not have installed in the first place. At least not to the Main hard drive).
    Once that is done, finished, exit out of Disk Utility and Select Reinstall Mac OS X and click Continue. Have the computer connected to your internet Router by Ethernet cable when doiing all of this. OS X Lion install will start and when asked for the disk to install to select the Macintosh HD partition.
    If you really need Windows maybe you should of bought a Windows PC and not a Mac. If you need to run Windows on a Mac you have 2 options.
    1) Use Boot Camp to partition and install Windows 7 on your Mac as a Dual Boot System. Yes you will need to BUY Windows 7.
    2) Use and of the three Virtual Machine software programs, VMware Fusion, Parallels or Virtualbox, and install any version of Windows into a Virtual Machine. Then you can run both OS X and Windows at the same time.
    Of course there is a third option (If your Mac is Brand New). That is to Return it for full refund (Apple has a 14 dayNo Questions Asked return policy) and buy a computer, Windows computer, that is more for what you need to do on a computer. IE Run Windows and Windows Programs.
    Good Luck.

  • My earpods broke, and half of the silver part of the earpods got stuck in the headphone jack of my MacBook Pro.  Someone help me please!!!!!

    The end part of the earpods broke off, and now part of it is in the headphone jack of my MacBook Pro. The piece of the earpod in the headphone jack is too small and short to just grab it with my finger.  I need help please!!!! Thank you to whoever responds.

    There is no good way to get it out.
    I have successfully used a dental pick kind of tool to extract one. It took a great amount of fiddling, so you must be in a very patient mood.
    Others suggest the risky use of a blob of crazy glue to cement a "puller" onto the broken end. The risk, of course, is that if you get any on the jack, you are doomed.
    The guys at the genius Bar will sometimes try to get them out. No charge.

  • New macbook pro problem, plz help

    hey everyone.i just bought the new macbook pro last week, 15" i7core 2ghz. i am a very serious musician, and im going going to university next year to study music, the whole reason i bought this computer is for recording, all the musicians i know who are serious/professionals use macs. when i first turn on my computer everything is fine, but once i plug my guitar in through my zoom g2.1u pedal, garageband freezes and i have to force quit it, this just started happening within the past 2 days.for the first week i recorded with it fine.  it was also happening yesterday without even plugging in my guitar at all. when this happens the internet also shuts down. when i open safari it doesnt say you are not conncted to the internet, it just has a blank white page. when this happens everything else isnt working right either, everything is slow and laggy. i paid alot of friggin money for this thing and i wanted to keep it clean the only things ive done to it were, i took some mp3, pdf and guitar pro files from my old windows xp onto my mac through a usb stick, downloaded a mp3 from online and set a cool backround as my desktop. I thought macs were supposed to be resilient? or do i just have a defective one. these problems are quite specific but if i cant use garageband/record with my mac theres not a rly a point of me having one.
    i hope someone can help me out here.

  • Older macbook pro with broken screen and secondary monitor

The screen broke and I'm trying to hook it up to my tv to use it as a screen as a quick fix for now. Of course, it's opening on the second desktop but I need it to open to my normal desktop without being able to see my main screen. Is that possible, and if so, how? Ps. The disc drive doesn't work either so that can't be used.

    If you intend to install Leopard, I suppose you have an old MBP, right?
    On mine (2007 Core2duo alu, grey keyboard), I can use F7 key to switch display when using an external screen. Does it help?
    I'd advise you not to use an external drive, but install your external drive (provided it's 2.5") in your MBP.

  • My Internet (or maybe wifi) is not working on my MacBook Pro, can anyone help?

    Hi everyone, I am having a problem with my Internet that started today.  I have a MacBook Pro (Mac OS X, Version 10.6.8, Safari is Version 5.1.10). I noticed my Internet was working normally in the morning, but after about 5-10 minutes the Internet stopped working.
    -The wifi icon in the top right displayed as full, so that struck me as weird.
    -The other laptops in my house are not having this issue, or the wifi on my phone, so I do think its something with my MacBook Pro.
    -I used the Network Diagnostics to see if it helps.
    -I noticed the 3 listed items on the left hand side (Airport, Airport Settings, Network Settings) are in green. But, the last 3 items (ISP, Internet, Server) are in red.
    -I clicked Start Over -> Airport -> click Continue -> Selected my Airport network from the list -> click Continue: then all 6 items on the left hand side turn green.
    -My Internet will work then for about 5-10 minutes before it turns off again, and then if I check my Network Diagnostics it will have the same first 3 items in green, the last 3 items in red.
    -If I repeat the process as listed above, all will go green again. But, the internet will work again for about 5-10 minutes before turning off.
    -This process keeps on repeating.
    -Note: I got a popup to upgrade to OS Mavericks the other day, but I didn’t upgrade yet.
    -Note: I dont know too much about computers and I am not that technically savy.
    -Does anyone know what could be going on?
