MacBook Pro- Weird Problem
Well, whenever I press down on places near the trackpad, as I remove the pressure I hear sounds coming from the trackpad. I've never noticed it before, and I want to know what it is. Is there a way to fix it? If so, how? My MacBook Pro is a late-2011.
Thanks
The sound itself IS coming from the trackpad, not any other part of the computer. I have a wireless USB mouse connected (gaming reasons)
Could it be because I press down on the trackpad? When I click on something, I push it down all the way until I hear that click. The click coming from me releasing pressure on the computer is the same click as the trackpad click. I just wonder if my trackpad is going bad, and if there's a way to fix it.
Another problem, the nearest Apple store is easily 2-4 hours away from here and I'm usually busy every day of the week, I can't just drive 4 hours to the apple store and back... even though I wish I could.
It's an on-and-off sound. It happened a few minutes ago, but now it has stopped. It happens at least once or twice a day when I use the computer and sometimes the sound doesn't happen at all.
But I can easily say its coming from in the trackpad itself.

MacBook Pro - Weird problem. Really weird!
My MacBook Pro, a 15-inch, Early 2011, has been driving me crazy the past few months. Here is the problem and as crazy and weird as it may seem, believe me, it's 100% REAL! Most of the time it boots just fine and my wireless card is working fine. If I'm working on a desk and the laptop is not going to be moved at all, everything goes well for as long as I want. If I try to pick up the **** thing or move it, even for an inch, **** brakes up! No wireless. Trying to deactivate it and then activate it again only makes things worse. Then the wireless sign becomes gray with a big X in the middle which means no wireless card is installed . I thought it was the card itself, so I bought a brand new one. No luck, still the same issue. I'm pretty sure it's a hardware issue but I can't figure out what. I've checked the antenna cables coming from the card all the way to the screen but nothing seemed out of order.
It's really annoying. I have a laptop and I have to treat it as a desktop. Any help would be really, really appreciated.Hi,
Try a startup in Safe Mode. If that does not fix it, perhaps you should take it in to the Apple store, as it is still under warranty. Here is the link for the Genius Bar. -

How did you install Windows? Did you use Bootcamp Assistant or did you use a virtual machine like Parallels, Fusion, or VirtualBox.
If you used Bootcamp Assistant, did you download and install the Windows Support software (drivers) in accordance with the Bootcamp instructions? -

Macbook Pro weird boot problems
Hello!
I have a macbook Pro (late 2012) with OS X Yosemite (latest update) and I have some weird stuff going on in it...
2 days ago, I was using normally it, as I use it for work, when it suddenly freezes (never happened before). when i turn it on again, a empty symbol shows instead of the grey apple until i turn it off.
then, when i opened the recovery mode to see if my HD was damaged or something, it just do not shows my HDD at all to verify for integrity. I trun it off and let it be.
After several hours later, i decided to try to boot it again, and, for my surprise, it boots normally and all my files are normal. But after 10-15 minutes backing up all my important files to cloud services, it begins to be really slow. The spinning disk is shown even when i tried to close a finder window, move simple pages files or even to open the top menu to shut it down. The weird part is going even crazier: when i put a freezing gel (a gel packet that freezes and thaw without water is involved) under the macbook, the slowness is off and it works almost at normal speed. when the freezing effect is off, the slowleness is back
All this parts repeats very often.. sometimes the empty symbol appears when booting, sometimes it boots normally and after several minutes it becomes really slow. I tried to diagnose if a hardware problem was involved (pressing "D" after pushing the power button), but no problems were found at all.
what is going on? do you guys even had this? I hope it´s not the logic board!
(Sorry for my bad english)The startup drive is failing, or there is some other internal hardware fault.
Back up all data on the drive immediately if you don't already have a current backup. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional—ask if you need guidance.
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.
If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
Apple also recommends that you deauthorize a device in the iTunes Store before having it serviced.
*An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed. -
Weird 1st Gen Macbook Pro wireless problem
Heya,
Recently i went on holidays for a week and left my macbook pro at home switched off.
Before I left it was working completely fine and would happily connected to my DLINK wireless router, as it had been for the previous few years.
Upon my return, i started my laptop only to find it was having trouble keeping a connection to the router. After about an hour it stopped connecting all together.
Relevant info
1) Router has been power cycled, as has the macbook pro.
2) Router has been reset to factory default.
3) Another macbook and ipod touch can see the router and connect fine using it
4) I tried new user profile on the Macbook pro, as well as trashing the network prefs.
5) I just finished doing a clean install on the macbook pro, and still no dice.
7) I have reset NVRAM
8) Both MB and MBP are running 10.5.7
9) NO ONE TOUCHED THIS WHILE I WAS AWAY. The house was locked.
10) Although it cant see the router, it can however create a network and also connect and keep a connection to another macbooks network, including shared internet.
The last one is the real strange part of this. At first i thought perhaps it was just the Airport dying, but the fact it can create a network aswell as connect to other networks create on other macbooks is a bit weird.
My neighbors WIFI usually comes up in the list of available networks, but this macbook pro is just not seeing ANY wireless networks that is originating from routers.
I just dont know what to do
I dont have the money to repair it, not to mention buy a replacement.. and i use wireless every day.
any clues?
I have searched through the discussions, but anything similar i have found either have been unresolved or turn out to be something to do with the router.
but the router appears to be operating normally, i am current use it to write this post.I am having the exact same problem with my MacBook and Airport Extreme. It seemed that once I downloaded the latest firmware 7.4.2, I am getting connectivity issues to the Airport. I have a strong signal, but the base station disappears often, even when the laptop is sitting right next to. Signal strength is good throughout the house, but connectivity to internet is spotty at best. My iPhone can connect to the Airport with no issues and is able to connect to the internet.
I did a factory hard reset and went back to the 7.4.1 firmware, but still am having same issues. Sometimes I have great connectivity, but more often then not, I am getting nothing. My MacBook appears to be able to connect to other wireless networks, i.e. the one in the Apple Store. But I haven't been able to confirm if any other computers can connect continually to the Airport. I have perfect internet connection through the ethernet ports on the Airport. Interference might be contributing, but shouldn't have any issue with the laptop sitting right next to the base.
Is there anyway to run diagnostics on the wireless card or the base? I did the PRAM reset, but nothing changed. I am glad I am not the only one who is now experiencing this. Very frustrating because a week ago, I was working great and have been for over a year and half.
Looking for any other bright ideas on how to troubleshoot. -
I have been using my new MacBook Pro Retina since Christmas when I got it and loved it. However, I recently noticed that when using my Bose QC15 headphones with it, I was only getting audio in the left channel. I replaced the batteries in the headphone and made sure that the plug is firmly pushed in on either side and am still only getting one channel. I also tried using the headphones with my iPhone 5 and they weirdly worked fine. I want to know if this is a problem with the audio out port on the MacBook Pro or with my headphones which I don't think it is.
Thanks,
LorenzoIs SYSTEM PREFERENCES>SOUND>OUTPUT has balance in the center, take advantage of the warranty and have it fixed at an Apple store genius bar.
Ciao. -
Retina MacBook Pro sleep problem since 10.9.2
Ever since updating to 10.9.2 earlier in the week my macbook refuses to wake from sleep each morning.
Having looked at the console logs it seems that perhaps the problem is related to it not actually managing to go to sleep properly.
I closed the lid on the computer at about 19:07 as can be seen in the first of these console dumps. I put the laptop in my bag and went home, where the laptop stayed closed in my bag all night. Apparently the computer awoke 70 minutes later. In the morning, back at the office, I left the lid open for a good 5 minutes before deciding to reboot at 9:37, so it seems that the computer was indeed turned off as there was no activity in these minutes.

Weird huh? Can anyone tell from these logs why it's going mad in my bag? Why would it try and wake and then crash and power-off?Similar problem 3 times since upgrading to 10.9.2. Coworker also having same issue.

Hi,
I have a pretty weird problem with my Macbook Pro. When I try to print in Word, Excel or any native Os X App, Os X returns an error, ranging from "out-of-memory" (although 800mb free) to "Something went wrong". This occurs when printing on any of my 4 network printers. It is no networking problem because other Macbooks do not experience the same issues. The most remarkable thing is that printing from Adobe Acrobat works like a charm, on all printers!
Any thoughts? I think it's no driver issue considering the Adobe Acrobat case.
edit: BTW, i've tried printing on different brands of printers (Xerox, HP)
Message was edited by: bo-ozIf you can't find a solution, you can try resetting the printing system.
In Tiger, you open the Printer Setup Utility. Then, in the Printer Setup Utility menu, select Reset Printing System. You will need to re-add all your printers after you do this. -
Macbook Pro weird top left noise.
My mid 2012 macbook pro is making some weird strong noise coming from the top left corner. I tried to speed up the fans. They seemed to work but the frequency of the noise varies so it's definitely a problem linked with the left fan. What can I do ? There is no apple services where I live. Thanks.
Get a pentalobe driver and take the bottom cover off of the MBP and inspect it for possible dust and debris in the fan and other parts.
Ciao. -
Strange macbook pro wifi problems - selective wifi disconnection
I have 3 macbook pros, two iphones and an apple TV. My primary macbook pro has some very unusual wifi problems that are hard to pin down. It frequently disconnects and reconnects itself to the internet constantly throughout the day. I've been testing it in various ways and today I noticed the strangest anomaly by far.
While working today, my primary macbook pro could not connect to the internet through any of the 3 browsers I use. Airport Utility said the internet was down (internet icon was amber, airport icon was green). However during this disconnection, my p2p application (Soulseek) experienced no disruption of service and continued to download files. I opened my second macbook pro and strangely enough, the 2nd mac was able to connect to the internet through browsers without issue, and the airport utility on the 2nd macbook pro said the internet was connected. My Apple TV was connected too as well as my iPhone.
It is often difficult for me to troubleshoot network problems because there are so many variables (ISP, airport assembly, airport base station, OSX, airport utility, modem) but I guess in this particular instance, it seems clear that the problem has something to do with my macbook pro.
My primary macbook has always had wifi problems (and honestly, my last macbook--the one that actually worked today!--had similar issues back when it was my primary laptop). Last week, my primary macbook pro had the topcase, display and logic board replaced by Apple. When it came back, it had the same wifi connectivity issues it always had. Often, a restart will be a very temporary fix, but not always.
I am at a complete loss for what could be causing these lapses in service. In fact, right now as I was trying to access these forums, I could not even get my primary macbook to open the Apple Support Site on any browser. Every other website would open, except Apple Support. I opened my 2nd laptop and it opened Apple Support just fine. After 15 minutes, my primary laptop finally opened up an Apple support page in Firefox.
It is really hard to diagnose the problem. I find that Airport Utility has been so pared down and streamlined to the point that it is worthless. It is basically a blank window with 2 application logos inside. It looks very simple and user friendly until it has a problem, and then it tells me to do something very technical without an explanation for the layman (such as assigning DNS servers or putting the airport in Bridge mode). I always follow Airport Utility's advice, but I still have odd problems. I am often confused as to whether I should use Airport Utility or the Network button in System Preferences. They have the same options, but they're arranged under tabs with different titles.
Anyway, does anyone recognize these macbook pro wifi connectivity problems? Constant wifi disconnection on one machine (while all others experience no connection problems) coupled with instances of selective disconnection (like browsers not connecting while p2p is able to connect or browser connecting to some sites but not all?)
Thanks for any help or guidance

SECONDARY MACBOOK PRO

AirPort Express 7.6.4Same exact issue here. It happened once when I updated to Mavericks 10.9.2. It just happened again last night and I can't seem to fix it.
I tried all sorts of things like deleting the SystemConfiguration folder, PRAM, SMC, DNS flush, etc. Nothing helped. As I recall, the last time it happened it mysteriously fixed itself after a day or two.
Very weird problem. I have been troubleshooting computers my whole life but this one is tough to figure out. Other machines in the house connect up just fine. -
