OSX Lion 10.7.3 FREEZES on Macbook pro 13'' 2009
I've got a macbook pro 13" mid 2009 and I upgraded to OSX Lion immediately when it came out. Never had any problem with it. Also I upgraded to 8 Gb a few weeks ago (because I use a virtual machine (win 7) + Adobe applications at the same time) and that seemed to work just fine.
Since a week or so, the OS seems to freez all the time. Just typing this message it happened more than 6 times. By Freeze I mean that the system doesn't seem to react for 10 seconds or more, and sometimes it shows the spinning wheel (waiting sign).
I did a clean install of Lion yesterday, but this didn't solve the problem. Any ideas?
I have the same issue today. MacBook Pro 13" from 2009. Just randomly started freezing and programs would stop responding.
I decided to update the OS to see if that solved it. Instead that has left me at the restart screen with a spinning wheel for well over an hour now... I am getting close to just throwing this thing at a wall it has become so frustrating to watch.
What do I do???

OSX Lion cannot be installed on used macbook pro
Dear all,
I inherited an old used macbook pro (2009 model) from a colleague. He cleaned it and it was ready to reinstall when I received it. I purchased a new OSX Lion set to install. As the macbook is a present for my daughters birthday, I purchased the software on het apple ID.
When installing (after entering the related apple ID) I get the following message:
This product is currently not available. Try again later.
Can I solve this without having to go to an Apple dealer. My girls birthday is this Friday, and I'd like to have the macbook ready before that date.
Thanks!In order to install Lion (which all 2009 MBPs are capable of) you need to have Snow leopard (10.6.8) installed first. The simplest path is to order this disk from Apple:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Then download the combo update:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Then the MBP will be ready for a Lion install.
Ciao. -

Macbook pro (late 2009) freezes at desktop screen
Hi,
I have a macbook pro late 2009 model 17 inch, running Lion 10.7.3
every now and then (once per ten boots) I have a specific freezing issue, after booting and loading the desktop screen and icons, mouse cursor is moving but I can't do anything more, the only think that works is a hard reset from the power button. I tried by re-installing Lion but the problem persists. I observed that this is also usually happens when I restarting from Bootcamp (windows) to OS.
Any idea or suggestion?See this article. You might have damaged software, and you'll have to reinstall from the recovery mode, depending on which version of OSX you have.

i installed mountain lion over snow leopard and my macbook pro 13" taking time for login and logout.. any solution
Hi JoeyR. Well, according to this link at the Apple Store, OS X Moutain Lion became available in July and I downloaded it for $19.99. I figured I would do that before renewing my Norton security SW. Are we talking about the same thing?

your 13-inch Mid 2009 MacBook Pro requires 1066 MHz RAM, but you have 1333 MHz RAM installed. Try replacing the 1333 MHz RAM with 1066 MHz RAM — Macs can be picky about the RAM which they find acceptable. -
No audio after Mountain Lion 10.8.3 update Macbook Pro Mid 2009
A few days ago I downloaded some updates for Mountain Lion on my Macbook Pro Mid 2009. After that there is no sound and internal speakers are not listed as an output device. The startup sound is still working (I would guess it uses the same speakers?) but nothing else makes a sound through the speakers. Also headphones are working. I'm not 100% sure if my OS version vas 10.8.2 before the update or not.
I have tried to input the headphones in and out many times to make sure that no microswitches are stuck. Also I have reset SMC and NVRAM/PRAM and reinstalled Mountain Lion. I even installed Lion (10.7.0) to be sure but it still won't work.
Any help would be appreciated.Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.

Issues with installing OSX Version 10.9.2 on MacBook Pro Mid 2009
I received an update notification OSX Version 10.9.2 when I follow the process for updates I get message that "Updates not installed and some updates could not be installed automatically"! Is there a problem wit this version?
Hey, I do not have the exact same problem but trying to update to 10.9.2 causes my macbook to be stucked in black screen + curser after boot up. I have looked through forums for an answer but nothing worked for me (such as reboot, reset NVRAM, disk verification, disk/permission repair, password entry, control-option-command+8, fresh osx 10.9.2 install). To be sure that my disk is properly working, I have installed the original snow leopard os, this worked fine. I also could access the recovery console.
To be able to use my mac I have now restored to 10.9.1 from my TM backup. Dont know if I should report this strange behaviour to Apple. Maybe there are others who have discovered the same issue?
Let me know pls.
cheers.

How can I make my first generation AirPort Express work with Mountain Lion? I have a 13" MacBook Pro (non-retina).
Hi guys, recently had the same issue. You require an older version of Airport Utility to configure the older Airport Express. It can be found here.

How do I reinstall lion using time machine (Macbook Pro mid-2009)?
I am going to replace my hard drive (and add RAM) on my Macbook Pro (mid-2009) myself. I have Lion (10.7.4) currently, and have backed up via time machine on an external drive. I don't have Lion on a usb, and from what I read, Lion Recovery via internet isn't applicable for my macbook (pre 2010). Is the time machine backup a bootable drive? If so, then am I all good so long as my backup is completed prior to replacing the hard drive? If not, how do I create a bootable drive so I can get back to "normal"?
Thanks! :-)To determine if your Time Machine backup has a Recovery HD on it restart the computer. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager appears. A Recovery HD option should appear on your Time Machine backup drive. Select it and click on the arrow button below the icon. If all is well your machine should boot into the Recovery HD utilities screen.
If all is well then after you replace your drive boot from the Time Machine Recovery HD. Start by:
Drive Preparation for Lion
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your new hard drive (this is an entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
After finishing formatting quit DU and return to the main menu. Select the option to Restore from a Time Machine backup then click on the Continue button. -
Mountain Lion is better in performance than Snow Leopard in macbook pro mid 2009? Can anyone tell me your experience?
They are probably about the same based on benchmarks.

I just bought the $69 Lion thumb-drive for my 2008 macbook pro (still running leopard) and when I insert the drive, the Lion Install screen opens up and it say "You cannot use this version of the application Install Mac OS X Lion with this version of Man OS X."
The Guy at the Apple store said it should just install! I hope somebody can help me through this, I shouldn't have to pay another ******* $30 to run something that was supossed to work in the first place!
< Edited By Host >Does that mean I will have to re-install all apps? Will I have to do this regardless??
I found this article written before the Apple Lion thumb drive came out and it references the quick but techie way at the bottom of article of altering the file /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist
http://www.macworld.com/article/161087/2011/07/install_lion_over_leopard.html
Will this work? -
I just upgraded my system to Mountain Lion. If I restore my Macbook Pro back to the very beginning state, will the Mountain Lion be removed or not? Thank you
The only problem that I forsee is that some have reported problems getting machine-specific builds of Lion via Internet Recovery. Not sure if it's working yet or not. But you could give it a shot, I suppose. Basically what you want to do is 'prepare your computer for resale' - just like it came out of the box. Kappy, a pretty wonderful and very knowledgeable man, has tip for that which I have copied and will paste below:
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.
Erase the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Good luck,

Macbook Pro from 2009 install OSX problem
I got the 17 inch Macbook pro from 2009. There was installed Maverick before, but previous user deleted all from the hard drive.
Previous owner explained to me that I need to instal Snow Leopard and after that to upgrade it to Maverick OS X.
Now when machine is started it starts with OS X Utilities an i can choose one of following:
Restore from Time machine Backup - I do not have any backups, since I got machine, I want clean new installation.
Reinstall OS X - this opens new screen where it tries to install Maverick OS X, whenever I proceed it throws the error, and no progress is made.
Get Online help - opens Safari
Disk Utility
What are my best next steps, to get this Macbook work again? Ordering SnowLeopard from Apple Store http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard ? And after it to upgrade it to Maverick? Is there a way to order this and download without waiting it to be delivered?Is there a way to order this and download without waiting it to be delivered?
No, you need the disk. If you do find a download it is illegal and may be corrupt.
I would get the disk, boot off the DVD, and after the language menu choose Utilities/Disk Utility. Repair the disk and repair permissions. Then select the partition tab, select the partition and erase the disk formatting as Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Click the Option button and select GUID. Then click erase. When it is erased, install 10.6, then use the combo update to get it to 10.6.8.
10.6.8 Combo Updater
Run Software Update ( menu) until there are no more updates. Then go to the App Store, sign in with your Apple ID, and download Mavericks. -

KubiNext time try erasing the hard drive and installing Yosemite from scratch. When it's running properly then reinstall your third-party applications from original sources being sure to only install those that are compatible. Finally, you can restore your data.
Install or Reinstall Yosemite, Mavericks, Mountain Lion, or Lion from Scratch
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
How to Clean Install OS X Yosemite
OS X Mavericks- Erase and reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Erase and reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Erase and reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
