MBP 2011 with Yosemete graphic glitches, crashes, now completely cannot start. any fix?

late 2011 MBP.  Installed Yosemete a month ago.  Start to get wifi and graphic problems a few days ago! then frozen and crashed from time to time.  Now it can only start into progress bar screen and keeps on power cycling itself.  Very disappointed and frustrated.  I have read many threads of graphic glitch and hardware failure with Yosemete.  I am here to find a fix.  Any idea?  Cannot imagine Apple keeps silent on this and sheds off their responsibility.

  • I tried to reinstall CS 6 after my computer crashed.  Now I cannot access any of the windows (e.g. on the paragraph  style window my mouse does not move me to a new style as it does not move the slider)

    I had to reinstall the CS 6 after a crash.  Now I cannot move any slider with my mouse on any window.  This means I cannot change a style, or a swatch, I cannot move to a master page.

    I used the CD and followed the directions  and accepted all the default.

  • HT2476 I recently upgraded to OS X Mavericks and now I cannot open any of my Microsoft apps. Is Mavericks not compatible with Microsoft Office 2008? If not, how do I revert back to Mountain Lion?

    I recently updated my Macbook Pro to OS X Mavericks and now I cannot access any of my Microsoft Office apps. Is Mavericks not compatible with Microsoft Office? If not, how do I revert?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Office 2008 and 2011 are compatible with OS X Mavericks.
    If you are using Office 2008, I highly recommend you to reinstall the latest Office 2008 update > http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36897 Note that Office 2008 is not supported by Microsoft anymore

  • I apparently got stung with the Adobe flash virus.  Now I cannot open any .pdf files from the internet.

    I apparently got stung with the Adobe flash virus and now I cannot open any Adobe .pdf files from the internet.  Fix?

    Go to F_Secure's Flashback Removal Tool web page, download their Flashback trojan detection/removal tool, and follow the instructions you find there.
    Also install the latest java update which also tries to remove these trojans.
    Java for OS X Lion 2012-003
    And only download the adobe flash plugin from the adobe site.
    Update:
    Just because you cannot download pdf may not be an indication of the trojan.  There's been a number of reports about problems like that with pdf's.  Look at the More Like This section on the right side of this page.

  • My Mavericks upgrade crashed my hard drive and I had to reinstall Mountain Lion.  Now I cannot get any of the apps that I purchased to download.  The icons on the launchpad just say "waiting" no matter what I try.

    My Mavericks upgrade crashed my hard drive and I had to reinstall Mountain Lion.  Now I cannot get any of the apps that I purchased to download.  The icons on the launchpad just say "waiting" no matter what I try.  My app store ID is fine.  What do I do?

    Are you now using a different username from the one you used prior to migrating? If so that is the reason for the problem. You might, then, give this a try:
    To fix Home folder permissions
    Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder.  At the command line prompt enter or paste the following command line:
    sudo chown -R `id -un`:`id -gn` ~
    Press RETURN.  You will be prompted to enter your admin password which will not be echoed.

  • I updated to OS X Yosemite but iPhoto will not download, is saying because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled. Now I cannot access ANY of my photos...

    I updated to OS X Yosemite but iPhoto will not download, is saying because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled. Now I cannot access ANY of my photos...how can I fix this????

    If you are logged in with the Apple ID that was used to purchase iPhoto or to set up the computer if it came preinstalled then quit iPhoto, backup your iPhoto library  and drag the iphoto application to the trash (do not empty the trash yet) and then go to the App store and install iPhoto
    If that does not resolve contact App store support - link is on the right of the App store window

    I just bought a new Mac Book Pro and did a migration of the content of the old laptop (also a Mac Book Pro) to the new one. Now I cannot start Photoshop CS6. When I am starting it I have a window "Adobe photoshop CS6 extended" opening requesting a connexion. When I am entering my password for the connexion the software crashes. How can I fix the problem?

    Migrating, transferring or copying is DEMANDING trouble, not just asking for it.
    Always install from scratch, from the original media,

  • I have ExportPDF and now I cannot open any of my PDF files in my documents. Why?

    I just signed up for AdobeExportPDF, and now I cannot open any of my existing PDF documents in my files. Why? How can I fix this?

    Hi harrisonmr,
    ExportPDF is an online service, and there's nothing to download to your desktop, so it shouldn't have affected your PDF files. What happens when you try to open the PDF files? Are you opening them in Reader, or trying to open them in a web browser? I did recently work with another customer on this issue, and it turned out that an update to Firefox had somehow affected the file associations on her computer.
    Please provide some specifics about how you're opening the files, what type of system you have (Mac OS or Windows), and what happens when you try to open those files.
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
    Best,
    Sara

  • I have updated to Itunes v11. Now I cannot start Itunes from my computer

    I  have updated to Itunes v11. Now I cannot start Itunes from my computer. I have tried clicking both on the short cut icon, the program file and the application file. The hour glass appears for a second then nothing. I have tried copying an audio disc and nothing happens.

    Are you getting an error message number with your unknown error? If so, what's the error message number, please?

  • Apple has sent out several updates lately for the OS. Now I cannot open ANY attachment to ANY e-mail. Is there a fix?

    Microsoft Office 365 is a subscription - based service. You have to pay for it... and keep paying for it... and paying for it... as in 365 days a year... or lose your hard work.
    Office Home Premium is a mere $10 a month, but a convenient annual subscription is only $100 a year. This is a substantial discount to Microsoft's Office 365 business products ($150 / employee / year).
    Such a deal! Are you not absolutely thrilled?
    Here are some slightly more reasonable alternatives, all of which are compatible with their Office equivalents:
    LibreOffice (donation-supported)
    NeoOffice ($10 but older version is free if you can find it)
    OpenOffice (completely free)
    Numbers ($19.99)
    Pages ($19.99)

  • I right clked on View Background I..., now I cannot see any of the pictures on Facebook and I don't know how to fix it

    I right clicked on my mouse and clicked View Background I..., now I cannot see any of the profile pictures or images on Facebook and I don't know how to fix it. Everything is normal on Google Chrome.

    See:
    * [[Images or animations do not show]]
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
    *A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    *A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image link and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

  • Hi. Bought recently iphone5 from singapore. but the one who sold us the phone has set restriction. now i cannot download any apps from my itunes. I dont know the restriction code so i think i need to reset my phone. does resetting remove the unlock?

    Hi. Bought recently iphone5 from singapore. but the one who sold us the phone has set restriction. now i cannot download any apps from my itunes. I dont know the restriction code so i think i need to reset my phone. does resetting remove the unlock?

    You need to restore it with iTunes or wipe it from the phone itself... Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.  Either of these will create a factory fresh phone, thus removing the restrictions.  Note that ALL user data will be wiped.

  • I recently clicked on an iphoto 'upgrade' message I received and now I cannot see ANY of my photos!!  Desperate for help!  Please.  Thanks.

    I recently 'upgraded' my iphoto because everytime I clicked on it,  I got a message telling me to do it.  Now,  I cannot see ANY of my pictures. Very frustrating. I've already gone to 'software updates' and tried that to no avail.  Please,  anyone... HELP!!!  Thanks!!!

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on seven different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
