Trackpad no longer works on MacBook Pro after update to OS 10.72.2

I just did a software update to OS 10.7.2 and upon restart my trackpad no longer works. The button does but not the pad. Any thoughts? I have never had a problem with it. There is no battery issue. No buckling or swelling. It worked, then I updated it to 10.72, restarted, and now it doesn't.
I have a MacBook Pro, 2.6 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 GB SDRAM.
Thank God I have an external mouse. HELP!

the Netflix error code is 8156-6205

Volume no longer working on MacBook Pro after Yosemite update.

The volume on my MacBook Pro no longer works after the Yosemite update.
"Internal speakers" is selected for device output.
I'm not sure how to fix this...

Built in Audio not working in MacBook Pro after update to 10.7.3

The Built In Audio is not working in My MacBook Pro (Early 2011) after update to 10.7.3; I tried resetting the PRAM and SMC but it didn't helped me out. I can get audio only if i reboot my mac from Safe Mode or reboot after Repairing Disk Permissions in disk utility using the Recovery Partition;. If i make a normal restart or just startup then the built in audio disappers (audio is displayed gray in the menu bar) . Everything was working well with the 10.7.2
- Audio Works well with the Boot Camp Partition. and There is a sound during boot up.

I dont have any backups and i dont have time capsule or an external hard drive ready to be used for backup.
My macbook is my the only one computer. The problem is that the animation is lagging when i change the window to dashboard or safari or mail or another window. Inspite of this my macbook works well.
But 5 minutes ago, I noticed that if i run autocad on my mac- the lags go away!!!!

Why do regular stereo mini jack headphones no longer work in macbook pro

I have a macbook pro (2009) v10.9.5, 2.53GHz Core 2 Duo. Lately normal non apple stereo mini jack headphones no longer work. The jack doesn't cut the speaker sound as normal. It wasn't like this until comparatively recently. Apple iphone headphones do work.. is this a software or hardware problem?

That is odd. Try a NVRAM reset:

Time Machine no longer working on Macbook Pro

I am at my wits end, have 2 Macbook Pro'sand one no longer backups up in TM (simply spins forever in 'Preparing Files'). I upgraded to Snow Leopard, which exposed the bad disk, and had both the disk replaced and OS re-installed. Still no luck, it simply spins for days. My other Macbook Pro backs up flawlessly every day on the same wireless network. Apple does not seem to know what the problem is, I tried renaming the machine to no avail. Any ideas on what to try next???

Sometimes there is no answer to the "preparing" issue other than deleting the backups for that computer and starting over with a new backup. But, before that there are several steps that can and should be taken.
It would be a good idea to first use Disk Utility to check the hard drive on the MacBook Pro that is giving you problems.
Open Hard Drive > Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility
On the left, click the exact name of your hard drive as it appears on your desktop.
Click Repair Permissions
The process will take approximately 30-90 minutes depending on how much data you have on your computer.
Once completed, try a backup again. Be ready to let "preparing" run for a few hours. If no progress after 4 hours, then stop the process and we'll try some more steps.

6/9/11 update old usb keyboard no longer works with macbook pro

Hi I have been using my old Imac usb keyboard with my macbook pro at work since I got my macbook pro. But as of yesterday I have not been able to use it anymore. Any suggestions to a fix or do I have to buy a newer keyboard? I need the numbers pad to entering data.
Any suggestions would b great.

Your message would be easier to decode if you had proofread it before posting.
Does your keyboard work when the mouse is plugged directly into the computer instead of into the keyboard, or does the keyboard not work at all? If not at all, then it sounds as though you're right in guessing that the keyboard isn't getting power for some reason (bad cable? bad connection inside the KB? USB port on computer shut down?) If the KB works when the mouse isn't plugged into it, then the mouse and KB together are demanding more power than the computer's USB port can supply, and neither is getting what it needs when the mouse is connected to the KB. In that case, plug the mouse directly into the computer to use it.
The USB port in your keyboard probably doesn't put out enough power for the mouse you are using. This is typical of older keyboards, which were designed to power old-style electromechanical mice rather than the laser mice that are commonplace today.

HT201240 My administrator login password no longer works on MacBook Pro - what do I do?

I have not changed my password, the caps lock is not on, I was able to log in this morning, turned off my MacBook, turned it back on this evening and the password is no longer working. How can I go about fixing this when I am not able to login to my administrator account?
Thank you!

I would first try and reset the Admin password by the method shown in the article below.

Eject button no longer works on macbook pro

Hey Everyone,
I just recently purchased a Macbook Pro and it has been working great. I have had it for about a month and just recently, the eject button does not do anything anymore.
I am wondering if I turned it off or something by mistake. Does anyone know how to fix this, or could this be a faulty button on the keyboard?
Thanks,
Dave

You may have already tried this however if not then try resetting the PRAM.
1. Shut the computer off.
2. Restart holding the Option-Command-R-P keys down, wait for three "bongs" and release the keys. The computer will then boot normally.
This will clear the PMU and may help ejecting the CD/DVD issue.

Apple TV icon is not showing on macbook pro after update to Mountain lion

I wanted to try Mirroring from my macbook pro to my tv using the new airplay update from Mountain lion but the icon is not showing after the update.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). It also requires the computer to be using wi-fi.

Dell p2815q no longer working with Macbook Pro A1398

Hi,
Some time ago I bought a dell p2815q monitor. It would work just fine using the display port to thunderbolt connector.
After some time my Mac Pro simply stopped picking it up. When I connect it, it seems like it tries to display on it but it blinks every couple of seconds and no input is detected on the monitor.
I've checked that the connector is fine, it simply works with other monitors and have also tried doing a PRAM reset.
I also checked the display itself and it works like a charm with other non Mac laptops.
This is becoming very annoying and need to find a solution to the problem. I am running Yosemite 10.10.1.

Hi, I got the same monitor the other day and there should be no problem getting it to work.
Use the DP to mini-DP cable supplied with the monitor.
Make sure this cable is plugged into the correct input DP port in the back of the monitor (not the DP port for daisychaining).
Make sure the DP input is selected in the inputs menu on screen.
Plug mini-DP end of the cable into Mac
Should work ...

Canon camera no longer connects to Macbook Pro after 10.4.7 update

Has anybody gotten word from Apple on this issue yet? My Rebel XT/350D stopped connecting to my MBP after the latest software update. It has stopped working with iPhoto, Image Capture and Capture ONE. If I put the CF card in a USB reader, it is recognized (occasionally) as a removable disk.
What gives?

CZ:
Did you update the system via the Software Update? If so then download the 10.4.7 COMBO updater and run it. There are some files it's reported, that are left off the incremental updater and the combo one will fix some of the problems that causes. Not sure your problem is one of them but it's work a try. Don't forget to repair disk permissions afterward.
Do you Twango?

Logic Pro no longer works with Firewire 1814 after updating drivers

I was attempting to hook up 2 M-Audio Firewire 1814 units and use them from Logic Pro 7. The older driver I was using would actually crash with this configuration, and so I updated to the latest driver, thinking this might solve the problem.
Well, the M-Audio driver now comes up fine - I can even monitor the signal levels coming from both devices in the associated UI. However, when I launch Logic Pro, I get the following message:
"Logic Pro has detected a possible conflict between one or more third party MIDI or audio drivers."
Although I can arm some of the lower track numbers (I still get this message), I cannot do so with higher track numbers.
Effectively, installing the latest M-Audio driver has broken my version of Logic Pro for whatever reason.
Removing and reinstalling the driver made no difference.
Any thoughts, anyone??

The M-Audio driver does not support 2 devices in Logic Pro.

Flash drive no longer works with MacBook Pro. Now says it is unformatted, but no info what to do and not lose my data. Does not show up despite multiple prior uses on the same computer.

Upgraded to OS Mavericks in November. Flash drive that worked fine previously with Lion and worked several times with Mavericks. Now says the 8GB jump drive (Lexar) is unformatted. Disk Utility First Aid seem unavailable. It sees the drive, but on the far left left, and when highlighted, nothing can be done with it.
How do I recover my information or reformat it without losing my data?

I am MikeMacBP2013. Cannot figure how to reply to Kappy's comment. Kappy, your comment did not really help me. My concern is how to save my data, not wipe and use a $10 USB drive.
In the past two hours, I wasted most of it trying to use a software program, Disk Drill by Cleverfiles, that offers a "free" version. The free version does not recover your data for you. It is not a free 30 day trial. It is deceptively advetised - it will recover data but you will not see your data untless you pay them almost $100.
Instead of trying to recover the data on the USB drive, this program ran a recovery on my computer hard drive and any disk image it could find on my computer until I stopped and deleted it. Apparently, it collects and keeps data recovered locked unless you pay for a key to download your data. This is not clearly presented up front. Had I known, I would never have put their software on my computer.
I need direction to a reliable recovery program that is not this sneaky and deceptive. I stopped it when I discovered it was not doing what I had clicked for it to do, and removed the software.
I am looking for a recommendation for a program that will do what Apple Disk Utility does not do - restore the formatting that may have been corrupted, or at least recover my data files so I can put them on other portable media.
I recently installed a CalDigit Thunderbolt Dock to get USB 3.0 on my early 2011 Mac. I suspect this may have contributed to this disk failure but will have to contact their tech support tomorrow.
Thanks for any suggestions for a reliable free or reasonably priced recovery software that someone can attest from using really works.
