  • My Macbook Pro has not been running correctly since "upgrading" to Yosemite

    My Macbook Pro has not been running correctly since "upgrading" to Yosemite. It has been sluggish no matter what program I am using, slow to respond to mouse movements, and unable to stream video. Any word on when Apple is going to send out a real upgrade?

    Try Reset SMC.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

  • MacBook pro will not boot. I get the gray screen, an apple icon and spinning wheel. Tried to start in safe mode but get the same screen. The only thing different was that I loaded the zedge sync app yesterday. Now getting this problem.

    Macbook pro will not boot. I get the gray screen, an apple icon and spinning wheel. I tried to start in safe mode, but get this same screen. The only thing different is that I added the zedge update app to do a sync for adding ringtones to my apple cell phone. How can I get a good boot. I am fairly new to apple computer.

    Reset PRAM: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405 and then try a normal boot.
    Run the Startup Manager to select Startup disk:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1310
    If those did not work your disk may be sick or dying.  The top priority at this point is to make a backup copy of your data.
    Check the health of the disk.  Boot in Recovery Mode (Boot, Command-R).  Run Disk Utility.  Click on the upper left disk icon.  Does the S.M.A.R.T. status say “Verified”?  If not the disk/SSD is unhealthy and needs to be replaced.  Even if it does not show “Verified” you can still attempt a backup. 
    Click on the icon indented below, usually called “Macintosh HD” and Verify Disk.  If it finishes with a green “OK” message then all is well with the disk.  If it shows errors in red then you have found a problem to address once the system is backed up.  Do not attempt software repairs until you have secured the data.
    If the disk will not show up at all in Disk Utility as your ran the tests above then it may be dead or it may have a bad internal SATA cable.  A trip to an Apple store for confirmation would be in order.
    If you have an external disk drive you can use as a backup drive then do so.  If not Google “Hitachi USB 3.0 external hard drive 1TB” to purchase one or go to a brick-and-mortar store (including an Apple store) to pickup one.  Any 1 TB external drive will do.
    Assuming it is still breathing you can try to recover the data without booting from the sick disk. 
    Reformat the external disk.  (This will erase all data on the external disk.)
    Boot in Recovery Mode.  Start Disk Utility.  Plug in the new disk.  Select it’s disk Icon (the second one down, left justified). Select the Partition tab.
    Partition Layout > Single Partition
    Name: Emergency Recovery 1 (or whatever name you wish to use)
    Format: Mac OS Extended (journaled)
    Options… > GUID Partition Table > OK
    Apply
    Select the Restore tab.
    Drag the old system volume (Macintosh HD) to Source.
    Drag the new disk volume (Emergency Recovery 1) to Destination.
    Click on Restore.
    It may take a long time for the backup.
    If that will not complete post back for other emergency data recovery methods, including those from a brody.
    If the backup succeeds, use the First Aid tab in Disk Utility to select the old volume (Macintosh HD) and Repair Disk.  If it does not finish with a green OK message try to repair it once or twice more.  If it repairs with a green OK message, will it boot normally?  If not, boot from the Recovery Partition and reinstall OS X.
    If it is still not healthy, post back for further instructions.

    I had this problem and went to the Apple Genius bar 3 times and everytime they said it was a logicboard failure.. they repaired my logicboard 3 times and within a week of use the x icon would show up.. and it would only run when the power adapter was plugged in.
    But as i was fed up going back and forth to the Apple store.. I left the charger connected for about 3-4 days and one the 4th day I pressed the battery button on the side and Voila! It lit up the amount of battery charged.. Keep in mind that the battery light on the left hand side didnt lit up when I pressed the button when the x battery icon showed up
    Not to sure how long this will last but I just checked my battery information and now it shows how much cycles and etc it has.. (when before it had all zeros)
    I've found that the x battery icon only comes on when the battery is fully depleted (sometimes)!
    Btw I have the early 2011 macbook pro 13" unibody model so I wasn't able to take out the battery beneath!
    Hope this works!

  • Why is my Macbook Pro has not installed iMovie?

    I read that the Macbook Pro have installed iMovie and other applications by default, but my macbook doesn't have them. When I look for the program in the app store gives me the price to buy it, the cloud does not appear as in the past with other apps.
    I'll have to pay for it? please help me

    Try quitting all open applications before clicking Shut Down from the Apple menu.
    You can tell which apps are open by the small reflection just under the app icons in the Dock.

  • My MacBook pro will not startup.  I get a blank grey screen no logo appears so I can't chooseadiffer t drive nor boot from DVD.  Safe mode and verbose mode also don't change blank screen.

    It was running slow with the colored spining appearing often.  This started happening weeks ago with Yosemite so I formatted the disk with the DVDs that came with the mid 2011 MacBook pro, 10.6.8.  I then installed Yosemite on an external drive and this morning i was booted from the external hd with Yosemite and it stopped recognizong mouse clicks so I forced a restart and now I'm stuck with the blank grey screen.  Safe mode and verbose mode also do not work.

    Lao Bo,
    yes, you can locate and copy a file from your HD to a USB key using UNIX commands. If you know the exact name of the file which you’re trying to locate, try this:
    find / -iname filename -print
    This command will search your entire internal disk for the particular filename. If you know that it’s within a particular user account, then you can save search time with this variation:
    find /Users/username -iname filename -print
    Either variation of this command will print all files found which have the given filename. Presuming that you’re able to identify the correct file, you can copy it to a USB key using the command
    cp -p filename_returned_by_find /Volumes/USB_volume
    If you’re not sure which volume name your USB key has, this command will show you what the possibilities are:
    ls /Volumes
    Please let me know if you have any trouble with these commands.

  • MacBook Pro will not boot - have replaced hard drive and problem persists

    Macbook Pro Mid 2010
    4gb ram, 2.4 GHz Intel core 2 duo
    Originally when I received a folder with a flashing question mark upon startup, I assumed I had a failed hard drive. I went ahead and installed a new 500GB hard drive in my machine and installed OS X Snow Leopard. I upgraded to OS X Mavericks, and I had everything running properly. The next day, I went to startup and my Mac would not boot again. The dreaded folder and question mark were back.
    I'm wondering what else could be causing this problem? Is it something I can diagnose and repair myself or will I be better off taking it into someone at this point?
    Thank you!

    You can try replacing the hard drive cable...
    Have you tried resetting the PRAM and SMC?
    Does the hard drive boot when connected externally?

  • HT201364 MY macbook pro  has only  4 gb  is it possible to install OS X Mavericks?

    What can I do to up grade  my mac book pro to OS XMavericks?

         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    If you can install Mountain Lion then you can install Mavericks. Two GBs is the minimum memory requirement for both Mountain Lion and Mavericks.
    You can download Mavericks through the App Store. Purchase it as you would any other software. Mavericks is a free upgrade so you will not be charged anything.

  • MacBook Pro will not power up beyond gray screen and spinning circle.

    Hi all,
    Everything was fine earlier, but later went to turn on my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.5.6) and here's what happened:
    - Apple start up "gong" sounds
    - Screen lights up gray with dark gray Apple logo in center
    - 12 segment gray circle rotates
    This goes on for about a minute or so and never advance to beyond to blue screen, login window, etc., the screen just goes black and shuts down after that. I since tried powering it up about a dozen times and the same sequence of events happen with no complete start up.
    Battery is fully charged and 110VAC power supply is plugged in.
    Anyone have any ideas that might help? Please let me know if I didn't provide enough info.
    Thanks in advance.

    You'll have to do the following if possible:
    How to Perform an Archive and Install
    An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
    1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) 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 quit DU and return to the installer.
    2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
    3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
    4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
    5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
    6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.
