Skype 7.5 Macbook Pro i7 2.2 fans now running full...
Running Yosemite, Skype 7.5 update. Now funs run full speed on video chatrs. Help?
You need to erase and format the new HD as OS X Extended (journaled), restore the TM backup onto it, and then reinstall Lion to put on the Recovery HD. Best is to do all of that in an ext HD enclosure, ensure that it boots the MBP, and then put it into the MBP. Once that's done and, if the MBP supports it, upgrade to Mtn Lion, which is what Lion should have been when it shipped.

I downloaded Skype onto my MacBook Pro with OS X Yosemite, now I'm getting redirected to Bing search engine, also, I'm getting pop up ads non stop! How do I get the pop ups removed?
Only download software from the developer's web site.
Please review the options below to determine which method is best to remove the Adware installed on your computer.
The Easy, safe, effective method:

If you are comfortable doing manual file removals use the somewhat more difficult method:

Older macbook pro is heating up fan not running?
My older macbook pro is heating up. I believe the fan is not running?
ThanksFirst, I recommend you to reset the SMC > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
If it doesn't work, I would start thinking about a hardware problem. To confirm this, insert the “Mac OS X Install Disc 1” that came with the Mac, hold the D key while your Mac is starting to start Apple Hardware Test and run an extended test. If you get an error at the end of the text, copy it here. You will have to take the computer to an Apple Store or reseller to get the Mac repaired -
It also makes some pretty concerning noises from the hardware. I've only been doing web browsing, nothing significant and no downloads. I tried doing a software update and when I went back to the updates page the one I had just done was still there. What can I do about this?
You are still under warranty. Call Apple Care. Make sure you get a case number as all repairs have an additional 90 days of warranty.
#1 - You have 14 days from the date of purchase to return your computer with no questions asked.
#2 - You have 90 days of FREE phone tech support.
#3 - You have the standard one year Apple warranty.
#4 - If you've purchased an AppleCare Protection Plan, your warranty last for 3 years. You can obtain AppleCare anytime up to the first year of the purchase of your computer.
Take FULL advantage of your warranty. Posting on a message board should be done as a last resort and if you are out of warranty or Apple Care has expired. -
I updated my MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion and now it is slow in starting up and loads a number of probrams. How can I fix the problem?
Have you tried starting in Safe Mode and see if the slowness still occurs?
Restart holding the "shift" key.
(Expect it to take longer to start this way because it runs a directory check first.)
If this works look in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login items and delete any third party login items (-), you can always add them back with the (+). Also look in /Library/Startup Items. Nothing is put in that folder by default, so anything in there is yours.
Reboot normally and test. -

My Macbook Pro has a black screen when running in Bootcamp Windows 7. Since I updated the mac side my windows side now starts up with completely black screen - no prompt, nothing, Cap keys still light up as does mouse and DVD drive seems to run.
Will not show up in safe mode, will not show when started from Windows 7 DVD.
I suspect the Mac update wiped out my PC video drivers but can not think of a way to re-install?
Can see the PC volume from Mac side with files.
I've looked at all the online solutions so far and have tried most of them without success. Please help!

Specifically, the posts by Dunsany and valkyr did the trick. I booted in safe mode, uninstalled and deleted the Nvidia driver, disabled automatic driver installation, and restarted normally. I then manually downloaded and installed the previous Nvidia driver for my graphics card (which at the time of this writing was 335.23, rather than the latest which was 337.88), and everything is now bueno!
Two hiccoughs along the way: First, when I tried to uninstall the Nvidia driver the first time, when I restarted I got the login screen (which was a good sign), but it quickly went black again. I powered down, restarted in safe mode again, and repeated the uninstallation process, and it worked the second time. Second, when I started the manual install of the 335.23 driver, the computer played a sound similar to the one for disconnecting a USB device, and the screen went black. I'd seen a lot about trying to increase the brightness (though it hadn't worked up to this point; but if you haven't tried it yet, might as well); I tried it, and it worked! So far I'm back up and running. [/fingers crossed]
Hope this helps someone else! -
My MacBook Pro shut itself down and now it won't turn back on and the power light keeps flashing the amber light. I don't know what to do, and this has never happened before.
Hello Toby135
Reset the SMC or System Management Controller to resolve issues with the power on your MacBook Pro and power adapter.

What's Wrong with My MacBook Pro? Unresponsive, Loud Fan...
Hi, I've got a Mid 2011, MacBook Pro. 250gb HDD, 4gb Ram, running 10.7.5.
Everything was working fine, then I took my MacBook to Mexico for a few weeks, so the power source was different to UK.
Worked fine for a few days, but then it seems that after connecting a camera and uploading 56 photos, everything has slowed right down, or just completely unresponsive
The fan is on constant overdrive aswel.
Starting up and down can take about 1 minute.
I've tried resetting the RAM, doing Disc Utility and a few other things in the Tips Guide. If I start up in Safe Mode, everything runs quick and smooth. But then I lose all Audio and keyboard lighting... which I assume is normal.
Any ideas please?
I'm debating about buying a 500GB external, and using Time Machine to back everything up... will this be a definite fix?
Chris.

System: 3 - 6 %
Idle: 82 - 95%

I have an aluminium Macbook Pro 15" from around 2009 currently running 10.5.8. Apparently I need to be on 10.7.2 to get into iCloud. And I can only run 10.7.2 on a Core 2 Duo machine or above? System Profiler says my machine is Core Duo, but also says it has 2 cores - can I run 10.7.2 on this machine? Any feedback welcome.
Read Lion's general requirements.

Macbook Pro 10.6.8 - 4GB started running extremely slowly.
All of a sudden my Macbook Pro 10.6.8 - 4GB started running extremely slowly. I verified the disk and got an OK. I have plenty of memory. Any clue?
I do need to learn how to use the communities...sorry. First time.
I do have lots of free disk space though.
The problem seems to be solved, after a whole day searching for help on the net.
I read somewhere to check my Console.app for repeated information. Then I saw my Mackeeper antivirus was sending the same message every 5 seconds for the last 15 hours. Thousands and thousands of the same message. I turned off the Real-time Protection, restarted the computer and all is fine. Just can't believe it.
Where I live it is kind of hard to get assistance.
Tks for your help. -

I'm having issues loading Youtube on my MacBook Pro for about a week now. I'm not sure if this is because of my computer or internet but my sister's PC loads Youtube completely fine. Can someone help me figure this out?
Hi, I had been having the same problem for over a week, but both my window's HP and my 2011 macbook pro barely could load youtube. What kind of router you have? I was using a belkin play router that was only 8 months old, switched to a new AirPort Extreme Base Station and now everything works perfect.
