My Macbook Pro (early 2011, 10.6.8) keeps rebooting when I put it to sleep mode or turn off the display.

When I go out for lunch, I always put my Macbook Pro either to sleep or turn off the display with Ctrl-Shift-Eject. Recently, a few times, when I returned to the computer, I find it in the login screen with all apps closed. What to do?

What do you man by 'kills' the application?  Do open applications close?
Try SMC and NVRAM resets:

http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204063
Then try a safe boot:

Any change?
Do you have any third party AV or so called 'performance' or 'cleaning' applications installed?
Ciao.

    Search this site for reports about Sophos. You should remove it whether it's causing this problem or not. It's utterly useless and can do nothing but slow down and destabilize your system.
    Soundflower is a third-party system modification that includes a kernel extension, and therefore has the potential to cause kernel panics. That's all I know about it, because I never install such things myself. The only way to find out whether it's causing your problem is to test without it.

  • EXACTLY what cable(s) do I need to connect my MacBook Pro (early 2011) to an external display with a 2560x1440 resolution?

    I am trying to connect my MacBook Pro (early 2011 w/ Intel HD 3000/ 384Mb) to an external display with a 2560x1440 resolution. Specifically, what cable/connections do I need to display at this resolution? I cannot get the display to work using a "Thunderbolt to HDMI" or a "Thunderbolt to DVI" connector.  Note:  I used both older and newer (uni-directional) HDMI cables on the first config, and a Dual-link DVI cable on the second config.   Apple specs state this is possible ( support.apple.com/kb/SP619 ), but I am at a loss as to how this can be done.  Thanks in advance for the help!

    You use a Mini DisplayPort to either HDMI or dual-link DVI adapter. If that component doesn't work, something's wrong with either the cable or something else in the connection.

  • 13" MacBook Pro (Early 2011) doesn't detect display over mini DisplayPort HDMI adapter in Mountain Lion 10.8.2

    Hi to all.
    I have a problem connecting external display (Dell U2311H) to my 13" MacBook Pro (Early 2011).
    I use Tecklink Mini DasplayPort to HDMI adapter (http://www.techlink.uk.com/products/wires_cables/wiresmedia/wiresmedia_media/wir esmedia_mini_displayport_plug_to_hdmi_plug), but since U2311H doesn't have HDMI input, I also use Manhattan DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter (http://www.manhattan-products.com/en-US/products/8101-displayport-adapter).
    And nothing.
    The display is not detected, no picture or even external monitor presence at all.
    I even reset PRAM, and installed 10.8.2 Supplementary update.
    I also plugged and unplugged all I could, with no luck.
    As I can see on Apple discussion, it is a common problem with 2011 MacBook Pro's.
    It seems like the problem is in Thundebolt port, it somehow does not work properly.
    If anyone has solved such ploblem, please let me know.

    In reply to my own post have to say appologies to Apple whose Thunderbold port I used to blame.
    Shame on me)
    So, what was my problem?
    Guess what?
    Manhattan DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter !
    The point is it's actually do only what it said to do, converts DP to HDMI.
    But I for some reason thought it can be used vice versa, to be HDMI to DP converter))
    I was wrong.
    I bought new one HDMI to DVI adapter and now I HAVE external display!
    Thunderbolt works like a charm.
    So I'm very satisfied now.

  • MacBook Pro Early 2011 - Airplay Mirroring only sends audio to Apple TV 2nd Gen

    Ok, I'm stumped by this one. I have a 15" MBP Early 2011 edition and an Apple TV 2nd Gen. Airplay Mirroring from my MBP to Apple TV only transmits the audio -- the MBP will resize the screen like it's connected to a 16:9 device, and Apple TV will show a black screen like it's about to pick up the video signal, but no video transmits. A couple of times, video started transmitting, but it was about 30 seconds delayed (?!) and extremely choppy. Both devices are connected wirelessly to a Linksys router with 5 GHz (wireless N) capabilities. The router has been configured to Apple's recommendations for Airplay Mirroring.
    A little more about my MacBook Pro:
    Early 2011 Model ID: MacBookPro8,2
    OS: 10.8.2 Mountain Lion
    CPU: Intel Core i7
      Processor Speed:          2 GHz
      Number of Processors:          1
      Total Number of Cores:          4
      L2 Cache (per Core):          256 KB
      L3 Cache:          6 MB
    Memory: 4 GB
    GPU: AMD Radeon HD 6490M, VRAM 256 MB Total
    This problem is driving me crazy! Airplay works flawlessly between my iPhone 5 and Apple TV, but not with a much more powerful laptop. Also, I tried Mirroring from a friend's 13" MacBook Pro, and it did the same thing.
    Any suggestions, tips, ideas, etc. to get this working is appreciated!

    your macbook dont support airplay mirror
    He has an Early-2011 MacBook Pro, which does meet the requirements. The issue is that it is running OS X 10.7.5 and needs to be upgraded to Mountain Lion to use mirroring.

  • Connecting my MacBook Pro (early 2011) to my Sony LCD TV (KDL-46XBR6) and listening to Multichannel surround sound.

    Dear all,
    I am attempting to connect my MacBook Pro (early 2011) to my Sony LCD TV (KDL-46XBR6) via the Mini DisplayPort to HDMI. I have successfully connected the two devices and can select "SONY TV XV" in the sound preference pane. I can see and hear what I'd like, however, I can only monitor the sound in 2 channel stereo. I have my TV connected to a Sony 7.1 audio receiver via an optical cable and can monitor 7.1 sound via other sources (Blu-ray, broadcast, etc). When I go into the Audio Midi Setup utility, I am unable to configure my speakers to be anything but 2 channel stereo. I am given the options for "2ch-16bit", "2ch-20bit", "2ch-24bit" and "Encoded Digital Audio". When I select "Encoded Digital Audio", my output automatically changes to Built-in Output. Has anyone been able to successfully resolve this issue? Thanks for all your help!

    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.

    I have tested it with the Moshi (http://store.apple.com/us/product/H1824ZM/A/moshi-mini-dp-to-hdmi-adapter-with-a udio-support) and Belkin (http://store.apple.com/us/product/HA342ZM/A/belkin-mini-displayport-to-hdmi-adap ter) adapters, both purchased from the Apple Store with no such luck. Have you or anyone else had success with any other third-party adapters?

    Quicktime comes pre-installed on all Macs.  Quicktime 10 should be on your Dock and the original application inside your Application folder.  Quicktime 7 is inside your Utility folder.  VLC is the application that you need to download.

    I've recently bought an external hard drive that works on Thunderbolt 2 (LaCie d2 3TB). When I connect the new drive to my Macbook Pro through the thunderbolt port, the drive isn't recognized. However, the drive works fine through a USB connection.
    I thought that Thunderbolt and Thunderbolt 2 are compatible, however this doesn't seem to be the case. Maybe it's because the OS X / driver / firmware version that I'm working on that is not updated? I work on an early 2011 Macbook Pro: OS X Version 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard).
    Thank you very much for your help!
    Daniel

    Hi danielsh6,
    I recently bought the new Lacie Thunderbolt 2 D2 3TB and I had the same problem as you, i have a macbook pro early 2011, those support thunderbolt but many times there is a bug that doesn't let you connect any thunderbolt drives to your computer. The solution I found was installing this update:
    Thunderbolt Firmware Update v1.0
    Before doing this I would recommend you updating to mountain lion (not yosemite yet as there is still some glitches and more on preview's macbook pro's).
    Hope this helped!

  • Windows 8 on Macbook Pro (early 2011)

    Hi,
    I want to install Windows 8 on my macbook pro (early 2011) running the new Mavericks 10.9, but im stucked at the formating process when installing windows 8.
    So first I go into boot camp and partition my disk as it guides me to. When It has finished and rebooted I'll hold the alt-option to select the windows disc (efi-boot). When I choose the language, typed the activationcode and all that, it wants me to format the partition i made, and thats when I got stucked. When i try to format it, it says:
    "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk has an MBR partition table. On EFI systems, windows can only be installed to GTP disks.
    Windows cannot be installed to this disk. This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the disk's controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS menu."
    I downloaded my windows from dreamsparks microsoft, and im pretty sure it is the full version (not the upgrade). The file size is 3.6GB. I don't know if that can tell which version of windows it is.
    I don't know what to do about this problem, I need help please!
    Thanks

  • 15in Macbook Pro early 2011 won't shutoff nor can I run disk utilities. Any suggestions?

    Situation:
    I have a 15in Macbook Pro early 2011 that I can not shutdown nor can I run disk utility to repair any issues. I recently had it serviced to replace a failing hard drive.
    Known issues:
         - Disk Utility: Will not respond. A couple days ago I had to run it to repair some damage to harddrive. When I try to open it, it is frozen with the rainbow ball.
         - Shutdown: I can not shutdown or restart my computer as it freezes during shutdown with grey screen. I can manually turn it on and off by holding down the      power button.
         - Disc Drive: This may not be related but I can not eject DVD in the disc drive.
    Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated. I currently live overseas (for school) so just going to an Apple store is not really a realistic option for me at this time. Thanks

    Take it back to where you had it serviced, there is usually a ~90 day guarantee
    you can force a shutdown by holding the power button for longer than usual.
