  • Wich USB 3.0 / 3.1 PCMCIA USB controller works best in a macbook pro 17 "early 2011?

    Hi people,

    why I had this idea before?

    I have an available PCMCIA slot in my macbook pro and would therefore be an opportunity to put in a USB 3.0 or (if already available) a 3.1 USB controller card.

    ... but: one who works best with EL CAPITAN? and with the SIERRA to come?

    did someone knows with this interesting topic?

    This product solves the problem:

    I bought a controller card - 3.0 - nano tech on eBay: http://www.ebay.de/itm/262393441049

    It works very well plug & play under sierra on a macbook pro in early 2011.

    but nowhere, a controller 3.1 must be found.

  • MacBook Pro 15 "Earlier 2011: is - this compatible with 16 GB of ram?"

    I am an owner of a memory of ram i7 processor of Earlier 2011 15 inch Macbook Pro with 4 GB (2x2gb).
    I want to upgrade to 16 GB, 2 x Kingston DDR3 1333 mhz KTA-MB1333 8 GB memory.
    The question is: are my motherboard, processor and SO ready to make full use of this ram memory? Or should I go with 2 x 4 GB instead?
    Additional advice will be accepted with gratitude. Thank you!

    PS: I'm under El Capitan already.

    Assuming that you are using this model special, you can improve it up to 16 GB of RAM. Please note that Apple supports only 8 GB of RAM, so apart from that upgrades are made at your own risk.

  • SSD suddenly slow down the MacBook Pro 13 "early 2011

    Hey guys,.
    I bought my MacBook Pro with two hard drives. SSD in the main slot and HDD CD-Rom instead. It works incredible fast without any problem since more than six months, and suddenly my Mac became super slow for no reason. I try with a clean install of Maveriks, Lion, Yosemite and Capitan on ssd cleaned and formatted, but the rest of the problem. Need more than 3 to 5 minutes only to get the log on screen (before the time of full reboot was 23 seconds) and if I'm lucky around 10-30 min to load the hole with files systems. I tried with the SSD on my other laptop and it works great, I remove the other hhd, changing all the discs in all possible combinations, and the problem is still there. Anyone with the same problem or solution for this? I really need help to solve this problem because looks like * now. I use applications like photoshop, ableton, traktor and other for audio and video processing and I need my mac to be fast as if it was.

  • Juice spilled under MacBook pro 13 "early 2011 a1278 and he died. Can I still save it.

    at about 19:00 2 days ago, I spilled juice on my MacBook, and I freaked out so I deleted for awhile and then hurried to dry off the coast. I then continued turning power on and off until it dies eventually completely. I know now that all the mistakes I made so what I did after he died was I opened the back and let dry. After more research I found some guides on how to clean the contents of the folder correctly, but all the stores have already closed at that time so I waited until the next day to buy all the tools and denatured alcohol and proceeded to disassemble the product and clean following the guide. I then waited until about 2 hours before now to go up the MacBook and the battery showed 1 green light but nothing else has worked, not even the light on the charger lights up. I opened and found that a partbof map logic heated very quickly when I plug the charger. So my main question is whether or not my MacBook still salgeavable or not. Help, please.

  • Flashing question mark in the Macbook Pro Retina early 2015 at startup problem

When I'm trying to boot my laptop it shows the flashing question mark and it does not start after that. For a while it worked, but after the update the laptop is never again.

    After reading all the articles related to this issue and even after trying it the entire process for the departure of mac. I'm not able to start.

    I tried all the normal recovery process in the process of recovery of the internet, but still it does not work for me. When I select the disk utility in the dialog box, the drive does not appear here, so I can't erase and start to reinstall the operating system.

    What should I do now? I was looking for OEM SSD, but it's very expensive. with this prize money of (here in INDIA RS - 50 k) I can get the Macbook Air.

    If please guide me on how to start the mac or what do I do next?

    Thank you.

    We have no way of knowing exactly what you have tried that doesn't work unless you tell us. A flashing question mark boot means that your Mac is unable to locate a startup disk to boot from.

    If you haven't tried... start your Mac holding the key Option. That should launch the boot window manager have been, you can select the startup disk, and then click on restart.

    If this does not help, you will need to take the Mac for the service.

  • Is it possible to upgrade the trackpad in my mid-2012 13-inch MacBook Pro to the touchpad by force?

    I would add the 3D button or touchpad of my mid-2012 13-inch Macbook Pro. I know that you can upgrade from things such as the hard drive and ram. But I can do the same thing with the trackpad?

    No, but the new version of the external trackpad is designed for ElCapitan, it can be used.  New version of the external wireless keyboard works also with ElCapitan.

    Just, don't wait these external devices to work at lowest ElCapitan.
