OS X Mavericks won't load on my MacBook Pro.

How do I know if I match the system requirements?

I was able to make a bootable installer on a flashdrive for mavericks and it won't install that way either. It says my new hard drive needs to be repaired but disk utility can't repair it so I keep recreating a partition and nothing is working. Please help me

  • One specific website won't load on my MacBook Pro

    So, the title says it all pretty much.
    I've been accessing this website for nearly 6 months, daily. A few days ago, it just stopped loading (Safari and Chrome), it says it's loading the webpage but then says the webpage won't load. At first I thought it was because the website was down, but I could access it using my PC, Phone and iPad (same wifi connection) and still can, it just refuses to load on my MacBook and I can't figure out why!
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Tried this also.
    Since posting, these are the things I have tried;
    Safari Reset
    Chrome Reset
    Tried using private browsing/incognito
    Macbook restart
    Wifi restart
    Complete router restart
    Changed DNS to 8.8.4.4 and 8.8.8.8
    Checked my anti virus software preferences for blocking websites
    Un-installed anti virus software
    Disabled Ad-Blocker
    Un-installed Ad-Blocker
    I then tried using the Guest account - still didn't work, so I did everything listed above on the guest account, still no luck.

  • One particular website that won't load on my MacBook Pro

    I have been trying to access a website that continually fails to load (in most cases, described below) on my MacBook Pro in Safari, Google Chrome and Firefox.
    The site: http://www.crestedbuttemusicfestival.com
    My Mac won't open this site at any time from my own home. My internet connection is Qwest DSL, and yes, we do not have the fastest speed offered by Qwest. I rent and don't manage the kind of speed I have.
    My Mac might open this site in Safari in a location with a faster speed. But it still won't open in Firefox or Chrome.
    I do have the most recent versions of all browsers in question.
    When it fails to open in Safari at home, yes, I've reset Sarafi and cleared the cache each time.
    The folks who own the website say they have no idea what's going on. But I met someone else who told me the same thing happens to them once in a while (versus my "all the time" experience.)
    This is the ONLY site that my computer will not open.
    Any ideas are greatly appreciated! It is a non-profit music festival that has no reason to be falling under any kind of parental control filters, which I don't think I have in place anyway as I have no children.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    I can open that page no problem.
    Your profile... v10.6.5
    If that is the case, you need to update your software. Click the Apple () menu (top left in your screen) then click: Software Update ...
    If in fact your software is up to date and you are running v10.6.7 and Safari 5.0.4 ... then from the menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Extensions tab. If you have any installed, turn that off, then try that site.

  • Programs won't load on 2012 MacBook Pro

    Hey guys, I'm opening this thread on behalf of someone else so I don't have all the information regarding the computer, but here's what I do know.
    2012 cMBP, excessively long boot up loading screen with the loading bar and gray Apple logo (https://pbs.twimg.com/media/A2YnByvCMAA0WxN.jpg:large)
    When it did boot up certain programs including Skype, Chrome, and Final Cut would not open. Anyone have any suggestions as to how to proceed (taking it into a store for service isn't currently an option) Thanks!

    Have him start by doing this:
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. 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 click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Aol won't load on my macbook pro

    Is anyone else having trouble loading aol? It will not load on Safari or Firefox.  I can access mail through my iPhone but not my laptop.  Any suggestions?

    Are you certain that you have your AOL mail account setup the same on your iPhone as you do on your Mac (using Mail, I assume)? I haven't used AOL in decades (is it still a paid service, even?) but my aunt uses it. Are you getting any sort of error message in Firefox or Safari or does the page just fail to load?
    I just loaded http://www.aol.com/ - but didn't try to log in as I have no account. No problems either in Firefox or Safari.

    Make sure the Firewall is turned off in Sytem Preferences > Securitiy & Privacy > Firewall
    Make sure Gatekeeper is enabled.
    Open System Preferences > Security & Privacy then select the General tab.
    Make sure either Mac App Store or Mac App Store and identified developers is selected. If that area is grayed out, click the padlock icon to proceed.

  • Apple website won't load on my MacBook Pro

    I cannot connect to www.apple.com or any variation of it on my MacBook Pro Retina on either Chrome or Safari. I receive message that says I am not connected to the internet, however every other website opens just fine.  I can access Apple from my iPad and my Windows PC on the same network connection. I have no clue what the issue is or how to resolve it. Any suggestions? I am current on all updates.

    Double-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy it to the Clipboard (command-C):
    www.apple.com
    Launch the Network Utility application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Network Utility in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Select the Lookup tab and paste into the address field (command-V). Press return. Post the output that appears below – the text, please, not a screenshot.
    Step 2
    Select the Ping tab and do the same. Please enter the same input as you did in Step 1. Don't use the output of Step 1 as input to Step 2.
    Important Note
    Some web browsers and mail clients will automatically convert a domain name such as "www.example.com" to a clickable URL, such as http://www.example.com. That will interfere with the test. If necessary, edit the input in the Network Utility window to remove any added characters.

  • I cannot get facebook to load on my Macbook pro

    For the last 4 days, I cannot get facebook to load on my Macbook Pro.  The only problem I can see is that I cleared the cookies and cleared the browsing history around the same time.  I can see the Zynga cookies are still in place but the games won't load once I can actually get facebook to load.  Sometimes other websites won't load either.  I am at a loss.
    So, does anyone have an idea on how to get Safari to actually work so that I can get back on facebook?

  • My iPhone 5 won't connect to my macbook pro retina over bluetooth?

    My iPhone 5 won't connect to my macbook pro retina over bluetooth?

    Ah, sure it actually won't.  I have the same problem, and I contacted Apple Support.  They told me that there is an incompatability between the iphone 5 and MacBook Pro Retina such that Bluetooth pairing is not possible.
    The Support Agent actually had the audacity to tell me this was part of the design of the OS on the MacBook Pro, like Windows people saying, "That's not a bug.  It's a feature!!"
    Personally, I think this is insane.  While I was trying to tether the iphone to the MacBook Pro retina for an internet connection, there are other reasons related to file transfers for which one would want to pair the iphone 5 with the MacBook Pro retina.
    I am hoping this "feature" is fixed in iOS 7, and/or in some dot release of Mac OS 10.8.
    By the way, the personal hotspot feature on my Verizon iphone 5 works great either via a wifi or USB connection.  There are occaisions, however, when one would 1) not have a USB cable, and/or 2) have another wifi relationship between the phone and a network that one would not want to have to "forget" in order for it not to connect to that wifi network.  The Macbook will not find the iphone as a wifi hotspot if the iphone is connected to wifi in the first place.  At least mine won't.

  • The app store is not working or loading on my Macbook Pro, iphone and ipad

    The app store is not working or loading on my Macbook Pro, iphone and ipad
    Today When I tried to open the app store on my ipad I found out that's the store is not working,,, It's giving me the loading screen like for ever without any error message. So I tried my Macbook and my iphone and it was the same,,,, I thought it was from the connection so I tried several different connections and It was the same.
    Any Idea what is going on with the app store ?

    The App Store app on your iPhone in your iPad is a different App Store than the app store app on your Mac. You use the same account for both app stores. So I would guess that the real issue is perhaps something to do with your Home Network. You might try rebooting your modem/router. Also, turn off any antiviral software, firewalls or apps such as Little Snitch.
