Restoring my MacBook Pro mountain lion hard disk would affect all my files?

Sounds complexed I know but it's one if those "I'm worried that all my photos, apps, movies, will be deleted permanently!" type of question.
If it does than I can't go back to Facebook where I got my photos from because I permanently deleted that account for anti-drama reasons, as for movies same thing on photos but under iMovie files.
The only option I have is reinstalling my mountain lion.
Please help! I need alternatives!

It would be helpful to have all relavent information. 
Your profile indicates that your MBP OS is Leopard.  Is your MBP an older one that has been upgraded to Mt. Lion?  If so, please provide the exact model and indicate if you have the original install disks.
Is your user data backed up?

Who or what is asking you to reformat the the disk and restore the backup files?  What procedures have you been using thus far and what have the results been?

  • My MacBook Pro (Mountain Lion) seems to be making copies of files in my download folder.  Why is this happening and how do I stop it?

    My MacBookPro with Mountain Lion seems to be making copies of files in my download folder.  Why is this happening and how do I stop it?

    This issue has nothing to do with Time Machine or local snaphsots. No built-in feature of OS X does what you describe.
    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac. 
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing. 
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. 
    Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands. 
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply. 
    Launch the Terminal 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 Terminal in the icon grid. 
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign. 
    Step 1 
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it:
    kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' 
    Copy (command-C) the selected text to the Clipboard. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered. You can do that by copy-and-paste as well. Omit the final line ending in “$”. No typing is involved in this step.
    Step 2 
    Repeat with this line:
    sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|edu\.mit|org\.(amavis|apache|cups|isc|ntp|postfix|x)/{print $3}' 
    This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. It won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning. 
    Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step. 
    Step 3
    launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|edu\.mit|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}' 
    Step 4
    ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null  
    Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting. 
    Step 5
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null 
    Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output. 
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • How do I install/upgrade iWork 2005 on my new MacBook Pro / Mountain Lion?

    I just bought a new MacBook Pro (converted back from Windows) and installed an old version of iWork (2005) I purchased years ago, hoping to upgrade it. It didn't install properly as it only shows a folder in Finder/Apps, with a couple of docs in the folder and doesn't show up as an app for Upgrade. The guy that upgraded my MacBook Pro to Mountain Lion at the Apple Store told me this should work.
       1) How do I install iWork 2005 on my MacBook Pro / Mountain Lion?
       2) How do I upgrade it without having to purchase a new copy?
    Thanks!

    You cannot link any version of iWork installed from a retail disk or trial to the Mac App Store.
    You install iWork '05 on your new Mac just as you always have, making sure you have the serial number to enter. But the iWork apps are very reasonably priced on the Mac App Store & have come a very long way in 7 years. And now Numbers is available for spreadsheets.

  • My new macbook pro (Mountain Lion) will not log into my 1and1 server to connect to my e mail. My snow leopard macbook does not have this problem - Apple support say it is a 1and1 problem! do I have to wait for an update of Mountain Lion?

    My new macbook pro (Mountain Lion 10.8.1) will not log into my 1and1 outgoing mail server. ( It will receive mail - but does not send)My old Snow Leopard macbook does not have the same problem ( server settings etc. are identical) . Apple Support say its a 1and1 problem , 1and1 say it is an operating System prob - I have tried changing port numbers.

    My eyes just glazed over...Please in the future break down each of your issues with paragraphs separated by two carriage returns. It would be much easier when trying to address your issues.
    Go to Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Mouse
    And edit your mouse settings to do what you want it to do.
    Secondly, this is not the place to vent. If you have a complaint, there is:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    or http://www.apple.com/contact/
    We are just end users here helping other end users.
    Third, from my understanding, it would appear you are concerned about the noise the hard drive makes when it falls asleep? Why not put your machine in screen saver mode instead? Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Energy Saver turn off all Energy Saver settings, or set them to run Never.
    Fourth, if your machine was purchased just a few days ago, you may still be able to get an exchange from the store, quicker than you can get a repair done. You may want to look into that possibility.
    Fifth, it does appear you found the Logic forum. I would persist in asking there how to solve your technical issue with Logic regarding the audio. It may be you don't have to do anything special to the hard drive. Remember audio can be transmitted by wire, avoiding ambient sounds.
    Good luck!

  • HT4245 my iMessage on my macbook pro mountain lion won't work.

    this is a very frustrating problem
    my iMessage on my macbook pro mountain lion won't work.
    it keeps on saying that ive entered the wrong passcode.
    i even have my firewall turned off
    plz help

    Ok...
    So I bought my MacBook Pro second hand, and it came with no installation discs, but I got Mountain Lion and had it installed and decided to back it up to a disc in case of this scenario. I followed some instructions to make a bootable disc and used it to install a fresh copy of Mountain Lion back when I first got it.
    My problem is that without the boot partition of my MacBook's hard drive it doesn't seem to want to boot the disc.
    Since I didn't want to buy a disc and I don't have another MacBook or know anyone near me that does, I decided to download a hackintosh iso and use it along with my other laptop to install iPC 10.5.6....this installed successfully and my hopes were that my MacBook would be able to boot it, so I reinstalled my MacBook's hard drive and to my surprise it booted, although not normally. Since it is hackintosh it has some rewritten boot features so it's not a true OSX, but it is fully functional. Since I finally had OSX booted I figured I was in the clear and would be able to install Mountain Lion from this, but then I found out that you have to have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or later in order to install Mountain Lion.
    Now I'm stuck with a hactintosh version of Lion and still no way to get back to Mountain Lion, is there anything I can do now that I have a functional OSX installation?

  • My sister can't find Pages on her Macbook Pro Mountain Lion, can someone help?

    My sister is new to her MacBook Pro Mountain Lion and thinks she may have deleted the Pages program. She's away at college for the first time and needs this program. I've told her to use Finder and search for Pages, or look in her applications, but to no avail. Help?

    How did she acquire Pages in the first place?
    If it was a purchase from the Mac App Store, all she need to do is launch App Store (from the  menu is easiest), sign in with the Apple ID & password used, click on 'purchases' & click the INSTALL button to the right of Pages in the list.
    If it was from a retail DVD she will need the DVD to reinstall.

  • Macbook pro not starting (Hard disk damaged)

    Hello,
    My macbook pro is not starting. I believe it is a mid 2012 model, 13 inch, 750 gb disk space, not sure if i5 or i7, OS Mavericks 10.9.3 or 10.9.4 not sure. I tried running disk utility and it said my disk was damaged; tried repairing but I get a message that disk utility cant repair the disk. I read about safe mode startup so I did that, but it does not work. The progress bar goes up to around 5% and the computer shuts down. Even if I don't press shift key the same thing happens; progress bar goes to 5% and computer shuts down.
    I have a time machine backup on an external hard drive so I can use that to restore the system but that backup was done 2 weeks ago, I've some new files in the computer so I'd rather not do that. I want to be able to start my computer and copy files and folders onto external disk then perhaps reinstall the OS again. I also read about Fsck but I don't really understand that.
    I don't know about computers well, please help me..

  • Macbook Pro Mountain Lion Upgrade Issues

    I recently upgraded my MacBook Pro with a solid state and fresh installed Mountain Lion. Since I did this my laptop has been very hot and it wont completely shutdown. It gets down to the blacks screen but it wont actually turn off and then I have to press the physical shutdown button and then my computer turns on it'll say it shutdown because of a problem.
    In addition, it's very loud and it gets up to 80 and 90 degrees celcuis.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I found that running the installer ( right click the installer and choose Show Package Contents) look for something that says InstallESD.DMG
    Drag it to your desktop and double click it, it should run an installer while still logged in. Make sure all apps are closed. 
    Before doing this, I would open disk utility and verify and repair disks and permissions before installing and then after installing.

  • Late 2011 MacBook Pro (Mountain Lion 10.8.2) backlight keyboard not functioning properly?

         I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro running OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and for some reason, the automatic backlight keyboard will not funtion as it should. When I have the "Adjust keyboard brightness in low light" option enabled in settings, and I turn on the lights, my backlight keyboard stays at full brightness. Then, when I turn off the keyboard, then the lights, the keyboard does not turn on! Correct me if I'm wrong, but I am pretty sure that this was a feature in the MBP lines.

    Try a SMC reset.   Shut down the computer. Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected. On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time. Release all the keys and the power button at the same time. Press the power button to turn on the computer.   Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

  • Internet Sharing on MacBook Pro, Mountain Lion

    I am having trouble enabling internet sharing on my macbook pro with os x mountain lion, version 10.8.3. My computer is connected to the internet from an ethernet cord, and I want to share the connection with my iphone wirelessly. I have tried going to system preferences > sharing > internet sharing. From here I chose "Ethernet" from the dropdown menu "Share your connection from." I chose "Wi-Fi" from the ports options under "To computers using." (AirPort is NOT an option listed under the ports menu). When I then check the internet sharing box to enable the sharing, a message pops up saying "To share your Internet connection, you must turn on Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi is turned off." Obviously, I don't have Wi-Fi, so I can't do this. How do I fix this problem?? Please help!!

    No, I don't have Wi-Fi. There is no Wi-Fi in this building. If there were, I wouldn't need to share my internet through the ethernet cord.

  • Which is the most recent MacBook Pro with a hard disk?

    I am looking to upgrade from my present MacBook Pro (early 2011). However, I found out that all new MacBook Pro's come with solid state memory instead of hard disks (which would be nice if it werent for the exorbitant price tag to get anywhere close to the 1 TB I require). In addition, they don't have optical drives anymore nor ethernet connectors. In other words, there really seems to be no "all-in-one, portable workhorse" solution left in Apple's line-up. Therefore I would be very grateful for any information on which was the latest model year for MBPs that had all of these features, or at least the hard disk?
    (I realize there are workarounds to all of the shortcomings of present generation MBPs, but they require schlepping around additional hardware, dongles, connectors etc., thereby defying the purpose of a truly portable computer. I also understand that MacBook Pros have become lighter and sleeker - but for people who put a premium on light weight, there are already MacBook Airs.).

    This model was released in June 2012 and is still available:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/FD103LL/A/refurbished-154-inch-macBook-Pro-23g hz-Quad-core-Intel-i7
    Monitor the refurbished section daily.  Changes can and do occur frequently.  My prediction is that the non retina MBP's will not be around very long, so if one comes close to your 'ideal', grab it while you can.
    Ciao.

  • Macbook Pro crashes then hard disk fail

    I'm a weathered mac user and have had macs for the last 15 or so years. I bought a new Macbook Pro 4 months ago and it has crashed more times than all of my previous macs together.
    A month after buying it with SL installed, the beach ball of death came up on the screen more often and then a day later the computer froze and the hard drive was corrupted. I reinstalled OSX and it worked fine (all data backed up using a time capsule phew!) until a month later it started getting slow again. I went to disk utility and this told me the hard drive need a repair. Then it tried to repair and said it could not and OSx could not be loaded onto the hard disk. Apple directed me to a service centre and replaced the hard drive.
    Then a week ago (Xmas eve to be precise) the same thing happened. The hard disk froze and said it needed to be repaired. I took it to a genius bar where the guy (who seemed knowledgeable) said that it was not a hardwear but a software problem and reinstalled OSx. Fair enough I thought and rather than using the migration assistant I dragged over my emails, photos and doc etc.
    If you've got this far well done! My problem now is that this evening it has once again started crashing for no apparent reason. I have no dodgy programs loaded, in fact all of them are on both mine and another mac. Two things have also happened, Front Row keeps loading up for some strange reason and I'm unsure why. Secondly the hard drive started making some really bizarre clicking noise whilst time machine was backing up.
    Has anyone any ideas what to do next or had similar problems?

    Well, if there isn't a hardware problem then there must be a software problem. Of course the diagnostics test may not detect a problem especially if it's random unless you run the test over a prolonged period of time - 24 hours, for example.
    If it is a software issue then I would start by doing the following:
    Extended Hard Drive Preparation
    1. 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 or Leopard.)
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the 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. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (for Intel Macs) or APM (for PPC Macs) then click on the OK button. 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 Options 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.
    Quit DU after formatting is completed and reinstall OS X.
    In answer to your firmware query: No, you cannot return to the previous version.

  • NEW Random But Regular MacBook Pro Mountain Lion 10.8.5 Panic Reboots

    Sadly I am losing any love or trust in MacOS stability. I had random kernel panic shutdowns bad enough that I had to go to Apple and get a motherboard replacement on the mid-2010 MacBook Pro. The suspect was the nvidia defect which many have been hit by on that laptop.
    Got the machine back and it ran fine a few days but has had several reboots in the last few days. No new app has been installed (except the OS 10.8.5 upgrade) and this newish set of errors appears in Console before the crashes... Older log file is at the bottom of the message to show the difference from the NVRM crashes... Why can't the OS handle even flawed software more elegantly and robustly? Any ideas on what these new errors, OCSPD errors opening a database, and something "just leaking". An earlier crash also showed iCloudHelper in there somewhere.
    Appreciate any help. Thank you.

    OLDER CRASHES (prior to motherboard replacement and before OS 10.8.5:
    For the last 2 weeks or so, my MacBook Pro i5 15" 2010 has started experiencing random but frequent panic reboots even when no particular app was running or if running no work was being done. The worst case was when it crashed/rebooted with iPhoto open and corrupting the Library, that took hours to rebuild.
    Initially the panic happened when I set the lower left corner of the primary screen to act as a screensaver trigger and it seems a brief mouse passover that spot caused a panic. Since then I disabled that option and still have had these panics, at random.

  • Uninstalling Parallels on new MacBook Pro (Mountain Lion)

    Hello everyone!
    I recently purchased a new MacBook Pro (the lowest end 13-inch model).
    I had Parallels 3 (ancient!) on my old MacBook. I no longer need it on the new one and, well, that doesn't really matter because it doesn't run on it anyway.
    I used Time Machine with help from some Apple techs at a One-to-One to bring all my old stuff to the new computer. Though I didn't want to bring over Parallels, I did want to ensure that I got all my other stuff over, and I couldn't pick and choose the Applications.
    To Uninstall Parallels 3 completely, I have to follow this protocol:
    http://kb.parallels.com/4709
    However, when I use the disk OR the .dmg image (I have both), neither work - they freeze or quit. I assume this is because, in general, Parallels 3 isn't even supported on the new model.
    I would like to delete it all completely, but want to get EVERYTHING off. I know AppZapper won't get it all off, and I am not technical enough to go behind the scenes and screw around. I did read, regarding the rules above, that one false move could wipe out my new MacBook. Not willing to take that risk.
    Has anyone been in this position before? I also have reinstalled Windows and am using Virtual Box, and, ideally, want to make sure that if I take out Windows (that was installed from Parallels), it isn't removing the Windows that I use for Virtual Box.
    Please help if you can!

    You cannot link any version of iWork installed from a retail disk or trial to the Mac App Store.
    You install iWork '05 on your new Mac just as you always have, making sure you have the serial number to enter. But the iWork apps are very reasonably priced on the Mac App Store & have come a very long way in 7 years. And now Numbers is available for spreadsheets.

  • Wireless printer (Epson XP-610) flakey on 2012 Macbook Pro (Mountain Lion)

    Hi folks, I'm trying to get this printer set up wirelessly and it's becoming a nightmare. After 4 re-installs of the driver software I managed to connect and successfully print a single page, the Macbook went in to sleep mode and lost the connection and wouldn't reconnect. It went in to sleep mode again 5 minutes later and started printing the document it was trying to print when it thought the printer wasn't connected.
    I managed to set it up on a laptop running Windows 7 and my desktop running Windows 8 with absolute no problems so I know the wireless connection from the printer is working perfectly.
    I've also installed the Apple update for the driver but it's made no difference.

    The directions on Epson's website indicate that the only way to install is use the "Software Update" function by going to the Apple icon on the upper left corner.
    I am running Mountain Lion, OS X 10.8.1
    Thanks for any assistance provided.
