Please Help | Major Problems | Lost Job/Need Fix

Hello guys, I have an Early 2011 Macbook Pro with many problems and I don't know where to begin.  There are so many things that Ill just list a few to get started.
Here are my specs:
MacBook Pro (15-inch, Early 2011)
2.2 GHz Intel Core i7
8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB
NOTE: about a week ago I reinstalled the OS to fix a problem temporarily  Ive been out of work for 3 months now because of these problems and am now out of money so I cannon afford to take it to a shop or the Apple store for fixing. If I cant get this fixed ill be unable to start my work again and that would be terrible.
SOME PROBLEMS TO START: I really need someone/something to look at my computer and determine ALL the problems with it both internal hardware and also within the OS itself.
*The core of all this is that i NEED windows 7 installed on my mac for work and bootcamp wont allow me to do it for some reason, I also don't want it installed virtually. I want windows installed cleanly. If i could install windows in place of the Mac os and then bootcamp Mac OS I would rather do that.
- Console has so many errors its crazy.
- Computer randomly restarts when I play games or am watching a movie
- I CANNOT install Windows 7 via bootcamp or any other method
- My Optical Drive failed so I have removed it so my only option is to install windows via a usb drive
- For some reason my External HDD that I save everything on now all of a sudden wont read.
         - Disk Utility reads it and if i verify it and repair it it tells me everything is ok but then also reads that its updating drivers but nothing ever happens
I THINK IF I CAN GET THESE PROBLEMS FIXED THEN THE OTHERS MIGHT GO AWAY
Please respond asap as every minute my laptop sits like this is another dollar that I am losing

Make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar and have them test you MBP and define what is exactly wrong with it.  The evaluation will be FREE!
Ciao.

  • Please help major problems

    I have a p4 2.8ghz northwood, msi 865pe platinum, 1gb corsair 400 3200 c2pro, 9800xt, but have swapped for 9700 pro and get same problems.
    Firstly i was playing lineage and the game had corrupted textures a lot, this had never happened before, this soon spread to windows and the desktop and start bar were most affected and were majorly fecked, not long after the bios was pink and so was memtest with smileys also in pink. Now the computer also turns itself on when power is 1st connected, and sometimes the video card outputs nothing. Also the corsair ram leds, have not come on sometimes, this coincides with one of the other problems i am sure.
    please help

    Please post your power supply specs - see here:  Moan Guide
    You should also run  Memtest86

    my iphoto wont open since i updated my mac, please help? it says i need to install an iphoto library upgrader which I have installed but still cant see my photos.

    What version of iPhoto are you using? 9.6 is the current version.
    Do a backup.
    Quit the application.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.iPhoto.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
    Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
    If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
    Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.

  • I have my catalog "Back Up Each Time Lightroom Exits" checked, and always have. That means the catalog should have been backed-up and saved everyday, if not more than once on some dates. So with a a major problem now and needing to use the Catalog backup

    I have my catalog "Back Up Each Time Lightroom Exits" checked, and always have. That means the catalog should have been backed-up and saved everyday, if not more than once on some dates. So with a a major problem now and needing to use the Catalog backup from last Friday, I go to my Lightroom Backups folder - and the most recent one showing not only isn't yesterday, it's OCTOBER 28 !?? Where the hell are the daily backups between October 28 and November 14?

    Oh wow - JET LAG strikes agin - my apologies; I have located the missing weeks of back-ups. After getting home from a 30-day trip to Europe, I had changed the location of my LR catalog back-ups to an external drive, and forgot that I did that. I have found them, and all is good.

    Hi,
    Here is PL/SQL code to run a PL/SQL block using dbms_scheduler every Saturday and Sunday at 8pm.
    dbms_scheduler is present in Oracle 10g and up. In earlier versions you will have to use dbms_job as given above.
    -- ========================================
    grant create job to user_that_runs_script ;
    Then as the user do
    BEGIN
    dbms_scheduler.create_job(
    job_name => 'my_weekend_job',
    job_type => 'PLSQL_BLOCK',
    job_action => 'schema.my_stored_proc();'
    repeat_interval => 'FREQ=DAILY;BYDAY=SAT,SUN;BYHOUR=20;BYMINUTE=0;BYSECOND=0',
    comments => 'this job runs every Saturday and Sunday at 8pm',

    END;
    Hope this helps,

  • I cannot access my ipnoe due to i get a notification saying Not Enouhh Storage and i cannot get out of it or go to settings please help what can i do to fix this problem?

    I cannot acces my IPhone due to i get a notification saying that i dont have enough storage and i need to back it up with ICloud but it wont let me click close or settings there for i cannot recieve calls or acces my email or text messages. I even tried turning off the power but it wont let me do anything please help !

    If the iPhone won't Restart you should be able to Reset it. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    For the future (in case you don't' know), go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage, and choose your Device under the Backups list.
    Under the Backup Options turn off anything you don't care about (being backed up, that is). This will let you reduce the backup size so that it fits in iCloud again. You can also delete the current backup here.
    You should also check Settings > General > Usage and look at how much data each app is storing. Identify problem apps and go clean out unwanted files.
    Great resource as well http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5262
    Hope this helps!

  • PLEASE HELP : Major IPOD Problem

    Please Help:
    Recently I downloaded the new Itunes(Itunes 7). After downloading it I was prompted to upgrade my Ipod (30g Video) to the new system (1.2). Almost immediatly after finishing this download my Ipod turned off, and is now frozen and will not turn on. Also, my computer doesn't recognize when my Ipod is plugged in, nor does the "Do not disconnect" screen come up, my Ipod stays blank. I called Apple they told me that I can send in my Ipod for it to be fixed, but the hard drive on the Ipod will be wiped. I recently bought a new computer and do not have any of my songs in my library, this is over 2000 (2000 + dollars) songs I have bought that I am currently on the verge of losing.
    I have tried various USB ports, two different computers, restarting my Ipod, talking to apple technichal support, putting my Ipod into disk mode, manually trying to get the compter to recognize the Ipod through the manager, and smashing on my desk out of anger hoping that something might happen (just kdding). I believe thats everything, any other ideas you have are greatly appreciated.
    If anybody has any ideas on how can get my computer to recognize the Ipod is plugged in so I can back up all the songs (via my computer, ipod...copy all music files) would be greatly appreciated, that way when I send in my Ipod and then get it back, I can put my songs back on.
    Thank you in advance!
    Windows   Windows XP  

    one thing that you can try is something my dad taught me. This works great especiall if you have a PC.
    When i had to replace my laptop and was worried about losing all of my purchased songs from itunes, i was told to plug the ipod into the computer BEFORE installing itunes. it will read on your computer as a mass storage device and then all you need to do is simply go into the folders and copy all of the files into your "my music" folder (or whatever folder you choose). After that, you need to install/reinstall itunes and when it searches your computer for music, ALL of your music (including purchased songs) will show up and all will be okay.
    Just a few hints;
    although this seems very simple, if you're a simple person like i am, you'll expect to see the songs on your ipod show up with normal/regular titles.....THEY WONT. They'll show up as letter-number combinations, but the music is all there.
    In short;
    1. uninstall/delete itunes
    2. Plug in our ipod (but don't reinstall itunes yet)
    3. copy ALL of the files you can find on your ipod
    4. reinstall itunes
    5. let it search your computer for music
    you should be fine at this point.
    I hope this helps!

  • HELP PLEASE!  Major Problem with FCP Project

    OK I am starting to panic. I was editing a wedding video for a client on this 150GB proMAX external hard drive. Everything as fine until this morning. Now when I go to open the project I always get a fatal error.
    What happens is the project begins to load but then gets to one unrendered point on my timeline and it just hangs. I get that spinning ball of death and I'm not sure why. Then the program "quits unexpectedly." I have tried this several times and consistently get the same result.
    I have tried opening this project on my MacBook and the same thing occurs. Can anyone PLEASE help me with this issue? I would appreciate any help

    sounds like a corrupted clip.
    disconnect the proMAX drive first, then open the project.
    when the project has opened (with all media offline) then reconnect and mount the proMAX drive.
    now you can start to reconnect the media ... but do it in parts, not all in one go. by a gradual process you should eventually discover which clip is causing the crash .... when you find out the corrupt clip, recapture from source.
    good luck
    Andy

    I can get itunes to start if I disable Bonjour or if I "repair" it first. Sometimes I can repair Bonjour though add/remove programs, sometimes it will only "repair" using WinRar. Sometimes I have to "repair" Bonjour 2 or 3 times to get iTunes to start.
    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling at least a dozen times. I have tried redownloading iTunes at least 5 times and from different links. This leads me to believe that the dnssd.dll file is not itself corrupt, but this newest version is causing a conflict with XP somewhere somehow.
    Team, iTunes 10.2.2.12 has just been released. I installed it and checked, and BonJour's been updated to version 2.0.5.0, and there's a new 2.0.5.0 version of dnssd.dll on my system. So I reckon it's worth a try updating to that to see if it's of any help with your trouble.
