Snow leopard suddenly takes 5 minutes to boot up on macbook pro?

I have snow leopard on my new macbook pro and everything was fine until all of a sudden it took 5 minutes to log in and I couldn't connect to the internet which I know was working. It would also make me log in every time it booted up when I have it saved as automatic login. I then repaired disk permissions and internet access works yet it still takes 5 minutes to boot up. I was wondering if anyone could help me. Thanks.

Hi spartan8;
How large is your system drive?
How much free space do you have on your system drive?

  • Why am I not able to install snow leopard on a new hard drive for my macbook pro, which at one point was upgraded to Lion?

    I've just had my hard drive go caput and after purchasing a new one was inclined to install snow leopard but received an error message when attempting to do so.
    I did not create a back up or restore file before I decided to upgrade from snow leopard.
    I'm wondering why am I not able to simply install snow leopard on a brand new hard drive.  What would clue it into me having had ran lion before and why can't I simply delete that kernel or said file.    It makes completely no sense to me.  I come from a pc world where if I choose to format a hard drive, I can do a clean install of whatever OS I choose.  After all I only paid for my laptop as should be able to do with it what I wish. 
    Any suggestions or insight would be greatly appreciated

    1.  Was Lion on the machine and trying to downgrade?
    2.  If so this might be an issue.  Newer machines are done for current OSX.
    3.  If you have Lion on your machine try to install Snow Leopard on another partition or portable HD
    4.  After you format and install SL on the other partition or drive Try to boot from this machine retarting and holding the Option key at boot up.
    5.  See if that work. 
    This is a trial and error way but Mountain Lion is right around the corner and Snow Leopard is 2+ yrs old.

  • Snow Leopard and Apple DVI to Video Adapter for MacBook Pro

    everything in PAL is black/white on my tv since i upgrade do Snow Leopard.
    is this a bug?

    Slightly different problem for me.
    I'm running a MacBook Pro 3,1 DVI to Video out to an NEC Multisync FE1250. I typically connect the external, then plug in the USB for the keyboard, etc. which wakes it up in clamshell mode.
    With Snow Leopard, this either brings up a small 800x600 display in the middle of the monitor (not even full screen), or comes up in the proper 1600x1200 but all of my windows have been scaled down to the smaller size.
    Very annoying.
    Here's hoping for 10.6.1...

  • I had a mac mini on snow leopard but it broke.I now have a macbook pro on leopard how do I upgrade using the disks from my old mac mini

    can I use the osx disks from my old mac mini to upgrade my macbook pro so i can then get a further free upgrade

    You can not use a DVD that shipped with one Mac to load on to another. To upgrade to Snow Leopard you will need to purchase the Snow Leopard DVD.

  • Itunes match and snow leopard, will the matched songs be on my macbook pro?

    hi. if i sign up for itunes match from my macbook pro with snow leopard and i get all the tunes i have on there from cd's, will they now be on my laptop? or will they only be in the cloud and available to download to my iphone 4 with ios 5? i was getting psyched for all my old cd's that i ripped to sound way better on my macbook pro. will i also be able to make new burned cd's out of the new versions if they are on my laptop? thanks.

    if i sign up for itunes match from my macbook pro with snow leopard and i get all the tunes i have on there from cd's, will they now be on my laptop?
    They have to be on your laptop to begin with as iTunes Match scans your library to match the songs you do have.
    Is your "laptop" another computer besides the Macbook Pro?

    so when itunes match comes and i tell it to match my songs and pay my money where will the matched tunes go? only to the cloud? so on my itunes on my macbook pro the songs will still be the old cd versions, but if i go to my iphone 4 and check in 'purchased', 'not on this phone' the ones available will be the new versions?
    Since iTunes Match has not yet been completed/released, exactly how it works has not been explained.
    You have a limit of 25000 songs.
    Any/all songs in your iTunes library that match what is in iTunes will be in the cloud. No need to upload them.
    You can download these songs to your computer and your iPhone.
    Any songs in your library that are not matched, will be uploaded to the cloud. You can download these songs and they count against the 25,000 song limit.
    You can keep the originals and/or download from the cloud (for example if your originals are not 256 kbps or better).

  • Snow leopard to Lion Upgrade on a brand new Macbook Pro

    My brand new macbook pro (bought september 2011) came with snow leopard installed. Am I really expected to buy a Lion upgrade for a brand new product?

    Not required.
    Some have upgraded and want desperately to reinstall SL.  Some are happy with the move.  Some are not completely happy but will live with it and adapt.
    Read here for the "new features" to see if the move is worth the risk to you http://www.apple.com/macosx/whats-new/features.html.
    Regardless, first thing you need to do is get a mac-formated drive and make a TimeMachine or CarbonCopyClone (download for free) backup.  The only common and provable issue with Lion upgrade is that those who do NOT make a backup regret not havng it when/if they reinstall SL. 

  • How can i install snow leopard together with lion, on a Lion based MacBook Pro ultimo 2011

    Apple figures that having supported PowerPC code for the last 6 years is enough so they dropped it.
    Why should they have to support some that old forever? It doesn't make good business sense to support some that so few will use.
    If you must play those games, my suggestion is to get an older Mac that will support PowerPC. It is going to be a difficult task to get Snow Leopard to run on a new Mac.

  • Mini DisplayPort to VGA isn't working. It won't recognize any external monitor. It worked just fine with my older spring 2011 MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard, but now with my brand new 2012 MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion, it no longer works

    I just bought a new MacBook Pro this summer and was all excited. But I'm very frustrated right now because I can't connect to any external monitors through VGA. My thunderbolt (DisplayPort Mini) to HDMI works just fine, but when I try with my other connector to go from Thunderbolt (DisplayPort Mini) to VGA, Nothing works. my screen goes blue and changes size like it recognized something but nothing is ever detected on the external moniter or projector. I'm not sure what is wrong but it's very frustrating. I'm just very depressed that it worked just fine with my 2-year-old MacBook Pro but isn't working now. I'm running OS X 10.8.2. I just upgraded yesterday from 10.8.1 but that upgrade did nothing to fix my problem. Can anyone help? Thanks

    I am haveing this exact same issue. I have plugging in 3 monitors and tried two different VGA to mini displayport and nothing is working. I recently bought a Acer monitor and it work for an hour and now it back to doing the same thing.
    When I plug the VGA adapter in to the monitor the monitor think its not connected to a computer then when disconnecting the VGA adapter the monitor thinks it is connected to a computer.
    NEED SOME HELP!!! at the point of all my hair is pulled out.
    ^^^
    that is the same problem i am having! if anyone can help that would be great i'm losing my mind over here

  • I somehow lost my "Tools and reference" bookmarks on my imac-snow leopard. I still have them on my Macbook Pro. Can I somehow traansfer them?

    I still have the "Tool & reference" bookmarks on my Macbook pro--can I somehow transfer them? Or is there some secret place on the imac where they may be hidden.?

    In Safari, Export Bookmarks creates a HTML file of your entire bookmark settings.
    Click the Export Bookmarks menu and answer the navigation prompt on where you want to place the file (same as any save file operation).  It will then create a HTML file in that location by the name you specified.
    The way you use that file is with the Safari Import Bookmarks menu.  You click it and it will ask where the bookmarks html file is.  Navigate to it and safari will import the entire list of bookmarks.
    You probably wouldn't want to do this in the same Safari for the same user because what's the point? But you can move that file to another user account (differnet machine for example) and import the file there to have all those bookmarks in that account's safari.
    I believe safari imported bookmarks into a sub-list in the bookmarks menu.  That means you may still have to move bookmarks around to get them to show exactly like you want.  Select the Show All Bookmarks menu and a window will come up showing your bookmarks.  You can then drag items and folders around to the way you want them presented.

  • Will upgrading to Snow Leopard affect my Windows 7 boot camp partition?

    Hi,
    Did some preliminary searching on this before posting but couldn't find with confidence my answer. Does anybody know? Details below.
    Q: Will upgrading to Snow Leopard affect my Windows 7 boot camp partition?
    I'm running 10.5.8 on a single drive with two partitions. 1st partition for OS-x is extended (journaled), 2nd partiction (ntfs) has solid version of Windows 7 RC, build 7100 running.
    Thanks.

    Hi Michael,
    here are some nice 'Myths and Facts' about Intel Macs and BootCamp http://refit.sourceforge.net/myths/
    Bottom line: while not exactly needed for installing Windows on an Intel-based Mac, the BootCamp Assistant 'streamlines' the process with a nice GUI (no need for 'cryptic' Terminal commands).
    Mac OSX as of now (10.5 Leopard and above) plus the uptodate firmware for Intel-Macs already include everything needed to install and boot Windows.
    Deleting or reformating an OSX partition does not affect the Windows partition.
    However a repartitioning of course does, if the Windows partition is on the same harddisk.
    But even a repartitioning of any other harddisk (ones that not have the Windows partition on them) does not affect the Windows partition.
    Did that myself when adding/upgrading the harddisks in my Mac Pro.
    Nonetheless, when 'fumbling' with harddisks and partition structure I always have backups of my important files at hand.
    Take care
    Stefan

  • 22" iMac desktop OSX 10.6.6 Snow Leopard and it won't boot. I've tried shift start, option command+P+R. It's stuck at the restart, all I see is the spinning wheel below the apple logo.

    I have a 22" iMac desktop running OSX 10.6  Snow Leopard and it won't boot. I've tried shift start, option command P R. It's stuck at the restart, all I see is the spinning wheel below the apple logo. And I lost my OSX DVD is there any way to fix this? I just did a software update yesterday and have about 20GB left on my Hard drive. The last thing I did was try to install some plugin's for Pro Tools 8, but it wouldnt let me install so I restarted and now I'm screwed. Please Help!
    other specs for my computer: 3.06GHz Intel core 2 duo processor 500 GB Serial ATA hard drive, iSight, magic mouse, wireless mac keyboard
    iPod classic 160GB (Late 2009), Mac OS X (10.6.6)

    You have to consider the possibility the hard drive may be dying.    If your data isn't backed up, try one of the tools below:

    Once you are sure your data is backed up, we can examine other possibilities.  In the meantime call AppleCare for your original installation DVDs.  You may need them.

    Have you seen this type of problem before? I think it could be a serious issue for anyone in a similar position.
    No; but then, I've not had occasion to use TDM. I've been using firerwire drives for over 10 years, both FW400 and FW800, with no issues except a bit of instability using a B&W G3 machine.
    TDM should be safe. Using cautious, manual copying of files from the Target machine to the Host machine should not result in unexpected loss of files or damage to the Target drive's directories. It should behave exactly the same as if it were an external (to the Host) firewire drive.
    •  I don't suppose there is anything I can do to 'put back' lost items from a separate Time Machine drive which has an up to date backup on it.
    There is probably a way to do that - seems to me that's one of the reasons for a Time Machine volume.
    On the other hand, if the Time Machine volume is rigidly linked to the now-absent OS on the original drive, there may be no way to effectively access the files in the TM archive.
    I know that using a cloned drive would work well in this instance.
    I have no experience with Time Machine, so perhaps someone who has will chime in with suggestions.
    With the machine in TDM with the other machine, have you tried running Disk Utility to see if you can effect repairs to the drive?

  • Is there any version of any operating system (Snow Leopard through Maverick) that will make my 2010 Macbook 7,1 run some-what efficiently again? Instead of just installing Maverick, should I consider re-installing any of the previous op systems?

    My 13-inch, Mid-2010 Macbook has declined in performance with every operating system upgrade. Maverick functioned, unlike Yosemite, which I currently have every intention of deleting. Honestly, the last time my mac could run multiple applications at once without slowing to a crawl and then crashing was on Snow Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion. Although I'm not quite sure at what point my Mac ran smoothest, but remained compatible with the new applications I've downloaded over the years. I know that it's been too long since I enjoyed using my 2010 Macbook. In fact, I thoroughly enjoy using my 2008 Macbook more, despite it's limited compatibility and obsolete features.
    I own a Snow Leopard install disk, or could install any of the operating system on my desktop and reinstall using a USB method, or any other means to successfully wipe a disk clean of Yosemite that many of you might know that works similarly (I didn't have Time Machine on). With that being the case, what is my best option for deleting Yosemite, and recovering an older OS X operating system successfully?
    The question I have for all of you with knowledge superior to my mediocre Mac mind, is what operating system can I reinstall on this Mac that will give it the best shot to function acceptably? Is any specific version compatible with all/most new software and such, but before Maverick and Yosemite raised my active memory usage through the run, along with constant lagging, and then a kernel panic. Through extensive googling, I've become more confused and frustrated. I could not get a concrete answer due to the questions phrasing, but hopefully someone can assist me here ASAP, please. How can I run Google Chrome and have a Celtx document open again without unavoidable crashing? I won't be greedy and dare ask for an additional, minimally energy draining application run in the background. Again, my 2008 runs beautifully, but is limited in compatibility. My newer 2010 Mac runs like it's struggling for memory (I've used 30 gb out of the 200, using my out-dated Macbook for most of my Mac tasks.
    My minor question.... For deleting Yosemite, what method is the most effective and easy considering the options? My major question..... Will reinstalling an operating system on a fresh disk, is any operating system valuable enough to consider installing and avoiding re-updating to Maverick? Or is Maverick my best shot? And a Mac that is significantly newer and more compatible with current hardware and software, and has approx 100 gb less on it's drive than my 2008 Mac, yet the Yosemite Mac can't handle of a fraction of the 2008 Snow Leopard activity. This is my 5th physical Macbook in less than a decade, btw. Along with pads and phones. I refuse to give Apple more money to solve this, so that is not the answer I'm looking for. Thank you.

    FIRSTLY, THANK YOU! I appreciate any help you can lend me here. Below is a Etrecheck from today.
    Essentially, Google Chrome and ANY other program open will eventually freeze up. I deleted Chrome. Re-downloaded. Completely deleted. Used Safari. Absolutely NO BETTER.
    If I'm writing a really long document in a word processor and using a thesaurus or dictionary application in the background.... That will eventually freeze my mac.
    So ANY assistance here would be terrific because since Yosemite it's been impossible to tolerate. 
    Problem description:
    If 2 “major” programs are running at the same time, my Macbook is almost unusable due to lag, crashes, and freezes.

  • When I boot up my macbook pro, it takes forever to start and I got grey screen...Help Please.

    Just a minute ago I tried to boot up my macbook pro...normally the grey screen pops up with the whirring wheel, and then my Lion log-in screen comes up and all is well.  This time, however, the whirring wheel spun forever on the grey apple screen. Then the wheel stopped and it went to a solid grey screen with apple...and nothing for about 10-15 seconds.  Eventually it came up. BTW, this was the 2nd time I tried to boot because the first time, the grey screen with the whirring wheel stayed up for several minutes so I rebooted.
    Anyone know what might be wrong? Thanks so much for your input!

  • How do I take the zoom feature off my MacBook Pro? I have already went to System Preferences and turned "zoom" off in the Universal Access. I saw where someone said to use THREE fingers to double click... ??? Double click what? And 3 fingers?

    Can someone help me?How do I take the zoom feature off my MacBook Pro? I have already went to System Preferences and turned "zoom" off in the Universal Access. I saw where someone said to use THREE fingers to double click... ??? Double click what? And 3 fingers?

    What really cheeses me off here is that Apple isn't allowing users enough customization.  With each update of iTunes (and the OS and iOS) we're forced to give up something that worked well for the way we want to use the app and make do with fewer (and lamer) options.  If Apple keeps this up, they're going to start losing customers fast.  I mean if this isn't fixed soon, I'm pretty sure I'm going to give up on iTunes, and then I'll probably go ahead and get a Galaxy when I need to replace my iPhone.
    What I don't understand about how they won't let users delete the list of available podcasts now is why?  How is this making it a better program?  I can understand that not all users are capable enough to right-click on a feed and select "Show all available episodes", so I can see why they want the complete list to be the default (and, surprise, it already was).  But to not give users the option to delete that list?  It's inconsiderate because it makes navigating feeds with a large back catalogue really frustrating.  I'm flabbergasted that no one at Apple considered all the podcast feeds that keep hundreds of episodes available when they removed this feature.  It smacks of rank incompetence.
    What improvement were they trying to make here anyway?  There was nothing wrong to my mind about how podcasts were managed in previous versions.  Whatever improvement they were trying to make here, they should have realized that many users would at least want the option to keep things the way they were.
    And reverting to a previous version is no solution.  I can't sync my iPhone with the new iOS without this update, and (while I do have some issues--specifically how you can't play podcasts in the Music app anymore) I do like the new iOS.
