Upgrade to Yosemite on MacBook Pro with Bootcamp

I have a mid-2009 MacBook Pro 15" (2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo; 8 GB memory) that now runs on Mavericks. I have a local Time Machine backup on a 1 TB Time Capsule. My machine runs Windows 7 in a Boot Camp partition. Given that description, is there anything special I need to do before I upgrade to Yosemite? I'm especially concerned about the Windows 7 partition. My instincts tell me the upgrade won't affect the Boot Camp partition, but I thought I should ask before I court disaster.

After upgrading to yosemite my macbook pro late 2011 does a random sound from time to time.

After upgrading to yosemite my macbook pro late 2011 does a random sound from time to time. Its completely random and i already checked all apps in use and its not from them.

Sounds like Notifications app.
Maybe some other app. In SystemPreferences->Users&Groups->LoginItems tab: remove all entries with the minus sign underneath. This will not uninstall anything, you have to start those apps by hand now. Restart.
Still there?
Yes: Restart again while holding the shift key, this will start the mac in SafeMode: only the necessary items are loaded to run.
Still there?
Yes: Make an etrecheck list and post it here.
No: Restart, put the items in the LoginItems back, one by one, restart after each entry, and you will find the "culprit"
Please report accordingly. I will be back in 24 hours.

Since upgrading to Yosemite my macbook pro keeps going to sleep if I am not using it. I want it to stay on as I leave it doing things overnight etc. It was fine before the upgrade and I have all the system preference set to "never turn off"

Since upgrading to Yosemite my macbook pro keeps going to sleep if I am not using it. I want it to stay on as I leave it doing things overnight (cd's / recording etc. It was fine before the upgrade and I have all the system preference set to "never turn off" - Help !!!

Good advice from Linc Davis that should sort out your query i think...
However you dont want to set your MBP to never go to sleep...
Adjust reasonable sleep settings...
And the download an APP called caffiene...
When you click it you can have your MBP never go to sleep with a single click of your menu bar... and with another click it can go to sleep normally to maintain the laptop...
Simply click the cup... To toggle never sleep/sleep

Since upgrading to yosemite my MacBook Pro want detect my external display

Since upgrading to yosemite my macbook pro won't detect my external display ?

Here's an Apple Discussions thread that might help. It suggests using Disk Utility to repair permissions to fix the following issue, which I just found on my system:
User differs on “private/var/db/displaypolicyd”; should be 0; user is 244.
Group differs on “private/var/db/displaypolicyd”; should be 0; group is 244.
If Repair Permissions doesn't do the trick (because it doesn't stick across sleep and restarts), helpful user "lplacencia" has provided some Terminal commands to patch up the files as needed. With any luck a 10.10.1 update will address this soon!
I haven't had a chance to test this fix yet, but I will do so later tonight. Meanwhile I can report that booting up in Safe Mode didn't make any difference for me. My system includes MacPorts (which includes some running services) so I might need to eliminate that factor, if Disk Utility doesn't help.
A total clean install would have to be my next step. (And I might try that anyway just to see if it's a problem in Yosemite generally.) It's not possible to download the Yosemite full installer from Apple through a public website, but you can save the installer and use it to re-install without having to download it again.

I am trying to install windows 7 to my Macbook pro with bootcamp but every time I open bootcamp I am only able to check the first two boxes but not the third one saying "install or remove Windows 7", any solutions ?

Hi, I am trying to install Windows on my MacBook Pro with bootcamp. Every time I open bootcamp I am only able to check the first two boxes but not the third one saying "install or remove Windows 7". I did this before using the same computer and the same hard drive so I am not sure why this is happening now but did´t happen then. Any solutions ?

Was your Bootcamp info.plist manipulated to change any options?

After upgrading to Yosemite, my MacBook Pro now requires me to enter a password whenever I start up my computer. I want to eliminate this step. How?

After upgrading to Yosemite, my MacBook Pro now requires me to enter a password whenever I start up my computer. I want to eliminate this step and to go back to the ability to reboot and begin using without a login. How do I accomplish this?

Hightlight Login Option. This will bring up the window showing Automatic login.
Please post a pic of your window if Automatic login is missing. Make sure your personal info is not showing.

Install windows 7 on my macbook pro with bootcamp.

I am trying to install Windows 7 off of a dvd version of windows on my macbook pro with bootcamp. I have gotten to the installer screen of windows 7 and each time I proceed, I get an error message saying it does not recognize my drivers. I installed the drivers from bootcamp on a freshly formatted usb drive. I don't understand why it won't read the drivers.

From the Boot Camp System Requirements page located here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634, there is no mid 2011 13" Macbook Pro.
Here are your choices and the correct Windows Support software version to use:

I recently upgraded to Yosemite on MacBook Pro - unable to open iPhoto and Photo Booth

I recently upgraded to OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 on my MacBook Pro (bought in 2011). Since the Yosemite upgrade, I have been unable to open both iPhoto and Photo Booth at all. I have lots of photos and need to access them. Both icons of iPhoto and Photo Booth have a circle with a bar across them, in my dock.
When I click on iPhoto I get the message " In order to open “iPhoto”, you need to update to the latest version. The version of iPhoto installed on this Mac is not compatible with OS X Yosemite. Download the latest version for free from the Mac App Store". I have tried upgrading iPhoto on the App store but get an error message "The item you've requested is not currently available in the U.S. store" .
Since I cannot even view my photos, I cannot store them elsewhere. Please, can someone help me resolve this problem!!!
For Photo Booth, when I click on it, it says "You can’t use this version of the application “Photo Booth” with this version of OS X. You have Photo Booth 3.0.3" - gives me no option to upgrade at all.
Would appreciate help for both iPhoto and Photo Booth issues described above, with iPhoto being the most pressing concern. Thank You.

The new app is called Photos. It's icon was added to the Dock. Both, Photos and iPhoto, are located in your Applications folder.
If you need to upgrade iPhoto, follow these instructions prepared by Barney-15E: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-8431

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in 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.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Do Not Upgrade to Yosemite w/ Macbook Pro: Severe Monitor Glitch

Jesus,
I have an early 2011 15" Macbook Pro that has been running very smooth with Mavericks OS X.
After upgrading to Yosemite my monitor has had sever issues and requires frequent restarts after the system crashes.
In hopes of a fixing this with an update, I updated to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1, but this still occurs.
This problem is especially apparent when viewing NetFlix, browsing the web with multiple tabs and using Google Maps.
The laptop's screen displays this strange glitch pattern as shown in the photo below:
When this laptop model debuted, I had this identical issue and after returning two laptops, I finally received one that worked -- at the time I believe it was running Snow Leopard.
This is a very serious issue to deal with especially while editing video. When it crashes I lose everything that I was working on.
Notes: I have enabled and disabled "Automatic Graphics Switching" in hopes of fixing this... with no luck.
I have done a SMC reset with no luck.
After resetting the PRAM, this issue still exists.
I'm looking at reverting back to Mavericks 10.9 because this glitch never occurred.
When editing, I'll plug in an AOC USB Monitor and the issue still exists.
Any ideas on a fix?

This is nothing to do with Yosemite, you have a hardware fault.
Take your Mac to an Apple Store, you're most likely going to need a new logic board.

I can't install Mavericks on a Macbook pro with Bootcamp

Hi all,
I tried to upgrade my MacBook pro which was running Lion and Windows 7 installed with Bootcamp, with Mavericks. I ran the installation program from within OS X Lion and after a while, it said that Mavericks cannot be installed because of a bootcamp partition on the disk. Did someone had similar troubles to install Mavericks with a bootcamp partition ?
Thanks,
Alan.

How can I install Windows 8.1 Enterprise on my Macbook Pro With BootCamp?

How Can I Install Windows 8.1 Enterprise on my MacBook Pro?

Hi Armin.S,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of your question. If you are asking about the system requirements for running various versions of Windows under Bootcamp, or just more generally how to set up Bootcamp on your Mac, you may find the following articles/pages helpful:

How can I back up a Macbook Pro with Bootcamp

Ok, so I have a 13" Macbook Pro (non-Retina) that's about 5 months old. There's loose wiring in the display, causing strange symptoms with my screen. There also seems to be something stuck in the fan, as it rattles around really loudly from inside the computer and I'm afraid it will jam and overheat. Both of these should be covered under my 1 year warranty.
If I send it into Apple or an AASP, I'm going to assume my data will be lost. I don't know how I can back up my computer so that when I get it back I can just copy across and have everything how I left it. I have Windows 7 installed with Photoshop and some games/save games that I really would not like to be lost. I have an external hard drive that should be big enough to back up both partitions. If I make it a time machine, I will lose the normal external hard drive functionality and doubt it will back up Windows too. Is there a way for me to back up both MacOSX and Windows 7 so that when I get my computer back, everything is how I left it? Thanks.

Disk Utility format Pattition 1 Option GUID OS X extended journaled a blank powered external drive, use Carbon Copy Cloner for OS X partition (also copies the hidden Recovery also just in case)
You can hold the option/alt key on a wired keyboard and boot from it to confirm it's working to later reverse clone (to the same Mac model on a new drive) or use Migration Assistant to a new Mac to transfer files and apps.
Most commonly used backup methods
For BootCamp clone and restore, use WinClone 3 on another external drive.
What the format for the external drive is and how to restore BootCamp from that drive I do not know, they can tell you how to go about it.
TimeMachine is well, TimeMachine, should also do that as well for OS X to have two backups at all times.

PDF problem in Preview after upgrading to Yosemite in MacBook Pro Late 2011

After upgrading to Yosemite , i have a problem viewing PDF's.
When opening high resolution PDF's e.g. 2588 x 3368, it will display distorted image or distorted characters.
and scrolling normal resolution PDF is very slow.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thank you very much!

Sounds like Notifications app.
Maybe some other app. In SystemPreferences->Users&Groups->LoginItems tab: remove all entries with the minus sign underneath. This will not uninstall anything, you have to start those apps by hand now. Restart.
Still there?
Yes: Restart again while holding the shift key, this will start the mac in SafeMode: only the necessary items are loaded to run.
Still there?
Yes: Make an etrecheck list and post it here.
No: Restart, put the items in the LoginItems back, one by one, restart after each entry, and you will find the "culprit"
Please report accordingly. I will be back in 24 hours.
