  • MacBook Pro won't start after changing RAM cards; just beeps.

    MacBook Pro will not start after changing RAM cards.  It just beeps; then I force it to quit.

    The three things that come to mind immediately are that the RAM card isn't seated properly (you should hear or feel a click when it is seated), the RAM is bad or marginal for that Mac model, or you didn't get the correct RAM type.

  • MacBook Pro Beeps Three Times on Start-Up

    I recently got a used MacBook Pro from my uncle, so I would have a laptop for college. When I start it up (with a new Snow Leopard install disc), it beeps three times. I've looked this up to determine it's an issue with the RAM, so I bought a new 8GB stick from OWC, and installed it. It is still beeping three times on start-up.
    When I boot without the start-up disc I just get a flashing folder with a question mark in it (no OS found, that's why I need the install disc).
    It no longer has a service contract (from early 2011).
    Help on why this thing is beeping at me would be appreciated.

    What kind of RAM is in the second memory chip slot?
    Usually these are sets of two, and matching is best.
    •Maximum Memory    16 GB (Actual) 8 GB (Apple)
    •Memory Slots    2 - 204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
    Rarely would anyone install only one RAM chip, and
    when a computer such as yours can use say, 8GB a
    credible path to 8-GB would be two 4-GB/matching.
    Or if you had a good 2 or 4 GB chip, it could occupy
    the second slot for a slightly uneven workable match.
    {What were the two RAM chips removed from the MB/Pro?
    ...At this point, I'd venture to guess they probably are OK.}
    And there can be an issue even with RAM of the same
    spec numbers, some of them for a PC or iMac will not
    do well in an Apple portable, though of similar spec.
    However I get the impression there is a hardware failure
    at some other point, to include a bad hard disk drive..
    A diagnostic is recommended since most usual startup
    sequences do not work; so troubleshooting isn't possible
    in the sense that most users would be able to at home.
    Also a retail Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD should be of a
    newer version than the one your MacBook Pro shipped
    with, since the original system discs would have been
    one of two Snow Leopard versions. However being
    unable to boot from the DVD and have it run the Mac
    the issue may be a logic board failure, if not RAM.
    •Original OS    Mac OS X 10.6.6 (10J3210)
    •Later OS    Mac OS X 10.6.7 (10J4139)
    {specs from http://mactracker.ca database}
    Anyway, perhaps another volunteer contributor has
    ideas that may work, so I have to go about other
    obligations and have to go offline now.
    PS: I just noticed your other post, and Recovery
    could be helpful, but may rely on the Apple ID
    of the previous owner if an older OS X 10.7 or
    later was installed & still present in the MB/Pro.
    Usually a purchased code was involved in a
    new install of Lion, via the Mac App Store while
    MacBook, etc was running in SL OS X10.6.8...
    Good luck & happy computing!

    You don't see it on the left-hand side of iTunes - you need to connect and select the iPad on the left-hand side, and then one of the tabs on the right-hand side that you use to select which content to sync to the iPad should be Photos : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
    You will need to select and sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent sync remains on the iPad, not including photos in a subsequent sync is how you delete them from it.

    Just a guess, but since everything is new, perhaps you have some sort of permissions problem.

  • Changing the Media Start point

    So I just had a hard drive crash on me and I did not have back-ups of my footage. It's not to bad because I have back-ups of the project file I was working on. So all I was going to do is a Batch Capture to reconnect all of my clips. Only problem is the person I had capture the footage did not leave enough pre-roll when they did a capture now. So now when it tries to re-capture it says "Cannot locate specified timecode"
    This is because there is not enough pro-roll on the clip to allow it to batch capture. When I look at the Media Start in the browser window for the clip it says it starts at 00:00:02:31. I need to change this to a later start so it does not try to roll the tape so far back. So.....
    How do I change the Media Start Point???
    Thanks

    Ok, I am following you, I just need to make sure the clips in the edited timeline reconnect with the old master clip.
    I could keep the old offline master clip and just make it reconnect to the new captured clip. But will this make all of my already edited clips in my sequence that are looking at the old master clip off by however many seconds I had to reset the in-point to get the tape re-captured?
    Thanks for the tip on dragging clips to the L&C window, I did not know you could do that.

    how to change daemon (service) start order by systemd? I want getty start after all other service have been started.

    hoanglan87 wrote:If you do that, you'll not see services messages when booting.
    That's the whole point. Once your system's working fine, you don't need to slow your boot down with those messages. You can always get them back by hitting the "e" key (with Grub) and editing the kernel boot line. Unless you've set your time-out to 0, which is probably not a good idea for most of us. Those service messages don't seem to be logged anywhere (although, there's lots of other logging you can enable). Anyway, we're thread-drifting here, sorry.
