• MacBook Pro won't start not

  Hello

  I have a MacBook Pro that, if I'm not mistaken that I bought in 2009. So, last week I had several open files and I was typing on a Word document, I typed whenever he got more lag. Then my laptop just turned off automatically and I received a message (I don't remember very well what it read) and after that I tried to turn it on again, the start bar just loaded up to half, he stayed there for 10 minutes, then the computer is turned off again. Help, I can't lose the files that I had in this computer. What should I do?

  Thanks for your help.

  Try SMC and NVRAM resets:

  https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT204063

  Try a safe boot:

  If no success, using the original installation CD and see if you can start the MBP.

  If you can, after the language selection, the display should have a top menu bar.  Click on UTILITIES and select and run disk utility > first aid.  If the disk cannot be repaired, a new will be necessary.

  If you cannot start with the installation diskettes, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a FREE evaluation.

  Ciao.

• Mid-2015 MacBook Pro won't start every 2 weeks, need to restore from a backup.

  Hello all, big problem, Apple says that it is not material (although I'm not sure), but if not, then there must be some sort of conflict between my installed software and the new model of MacBook Pro mid-2015. Help!

  The problem here is that I've been running EXACTLY the same configuration on a MacBook Pro 2012 since, well, 2012, without any problem. But when I received the new machine in December, I migrated everything on (using Migration Assistant), I have installed a Bootcamp partition, migrated my old installation of Windows on the use of WinClone, and everything was fine for about 2 weeks. This is the same process as I did when I upgraded the machine from 2009 to 2012 also machine well.

  Suddenly one day, starting from Windows to Mac OS, I watched the progress bar filling, then stop, then the screen went black. No sound, nothing. I hit the power button and the same sequence. Progress bar about 3/4 of way filled, on the screen then black, then the unit turns off.

  I called Apple, went to two Apple stores, and we all tried to run disk utility to fix the problem. But every time I find myself with a message "Invalid node structure. The volume could not be completely checked. File system check exit code 8. Updated scores of start-up of the volume as required. File system check or repair a failure. Operation failed... "The topic on this bed,"first aid process has failed, if possible, back up the data on this volume. »

  The idea of first re - install the operating system didn't work... apparently there was a problem with the volume at this point so he would not restore. The next option was to completely erase the partition and then restore the backup. That worked, but then the entire process repeated two weeks later.

  I have been through this process 7 ~ 8 times since December! It seems to happen every two weeks and no one can tell me why it's happening on this new machine, but I have NOT had the problem on the old machine running the same configuration.

  
  

  Apple said it might have something to do with execution Tuxera NTFS on Mac (if I can share documents across side Windows). I have not removed... Tuxera two restorations there is no change.

  I also use Paragon HFS + for Windows, because most of my material is actually stored on the Mac side. I have NOT yet removed this (current running Windows 10) because I have NO idea why or how something running on the Windows side could affect the operating system volume on the side of Mac... especially when everything I do is opening and closing things as Word documents.

  I have log files and screenshots (I write below a few... but there are many others). Apple says "it is not a hardware problem" so they won't have to help understand if it's just software. I beg the community to help!

  Here's what I new material:

  MacBook Pro (retina, 15 inch, mid-2015)

  Intel Core i7 2.8 GHz

  16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

  AMD Radeon R9 M370X 2048 MB

  This graphics card is the NEW one, first, that I do business with AMD

  My OLD machine is:

  MacBook Pro (15-inch, mid-2012)

  Intel Core i7 2.7 GHz

  16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

  Intel HD Graphics 4000 1536 MB

  Any help or ideas are appreciated!

  This occurs when the drive Boot CAN get the initial Blob of the software off the drive with the boot loader, but when he tried to mount the disk with the file system, it can not be mounted. It runs a single past of [essential] disk first aid. If the drive cannot be mounted, your Mac can not do something useful, he died.

  If the problem could not be fixed quickly, you should have been advised to REPLACE this hard drive.

  This is what you need to do now and stop wasting your time. A new drive costs less than $ 100 and will solve your problems.

• MacBook Pro won't start - runs in a loop

  Hi guys,.

  After a few days trying to figure this painful problem, I am at the end of my home and hope someone can help.

  I have a 2011 MacBook Pro, which has recently started having problems to start. During a game session (SIMMS), he all of a sudden to stop and refused to restart, and since then I have been unable to use it at all. The MBP has a new installation of El Capitan on it, but it has been working well for the past two weeks since the installation.

  I tried the safe mode, mode of recovery etc, but it would not boot in any of these either. Finally, I put it target mode and reloaded El Capitan of another 'companion' MacBook Pro. This process went smoothly.

  After loading it, I started from the MacBook to make sure that the operating system works OK, and it was 'companion '!

  I restarted the "Companion" MBP and ejected the defective MBP and tried to restart it normally. No go, would not even boot even with the new OS.

  I tried a number of things so he can begin as a result of this new facility, but all that happens is that he'll do the Apple Logo, try to start, stop, and then go around in circles.

  Finally you will stop on the gray screen and the fans will start and keep running.

  I'm at the end of my knowledge, so any advice would be welcome!

  Thank you

  Have you tried SMC and NVRAM resets?

• Beginning of 2011 that MacBook Pro won't start, watch display rose with logo

  

  Hi, my macbook froze, out of the blue, this morning, and I was unable to turn off normally so I forced a strong power down by pressing the power button until it is turned off. Since then, whenever I try to turn it on, it is pink and the display is fragmented and lines crossing (see photo) and the progress bar does not go to Midway. On a few attempts, he went from the brand halfway on the progress bar on a white screen.  I tried:

  -reset the NVRAM

  (which caused his startup rose once again, but she suddenly turn into a blue screen United, but I ended up forcing a power down again after that stayed turned blue for 10 + minutes).

  -a secure start

  (she who seems to do nothing simply creates the macbook to initialize rose as mentioned above.)

  -a SMC reset

  (what could start the startup system rose, but then switch to a black screen after the mark halfway on the progress bar).

  Annoyingly enough, my macbook is nearly a year out of applecare. Is there a solution that you guys may be familiar with? However, I have some files on the hard drive that I just can't lose, so I don't want to do anything to jeopardize the files.

  (which does absolutely nothing, the screen is initializing ink

  Please disregard the last line "(qui absolument does nothing...)" "that has been a typo

• MacBook pro won't start - start progress 99% and stops

  I have problems to restart my MacBookPro.

  The last time I used it I made a stop down and done okay.

  Now that I'm trying to start it, it shows me a screen white background with Mac logo and in the background a startup progress bar that goes from 0 to 100%. Before we get to 100% (looks like 99%) it stops. Whenever I'm trying is the same process.

  I appreciate your help to find out what I can do to finish the boot process and start my macbook

  Thank you very much!

• My MacBook Pro won't start after update to El Capitan, how can I go back?

  Hello

  I really hope that someone can help me here. I've updated to El Capitan Yosemite yesterday through software update, but now when I start the computer I get "no entry" or sign a circle with a diagonal line through it, or the Apple with the progress bar / error message / black screen and it repeats 3 times then stops.

  I'mnot you know where my disk of Mac OS x is so ideally don't want to reinstall the whole system.

  I did a back up of my work using Time Machine before saving, so I hope that I have most of the things I need backup.

  Restart by pressing cmd - R after the tone. It should boot into Recovery. From there, use disk to check/repair disk utility. Quit disk utility and reinstall OS X.

  The circle with a slash through it means that it does not find the necessary boot files.

• I have usef to operate only on PC, but now I have this 2009 macbook Pro.  He had a record of 7200 RPM... but he died... I want to put a hybrid SSHD on it... will it run slower?

  I used to work only on PC, but now I have this 2009 macbook Pro.  He had a record of 7200 RPM... but he died... I want to put a hybrid SSHD on it... will it run slower?

  Several years ago I tested both a hybrid version Seagate 1 and later version 2 with my 13 "2009 MBP and the computer started more quickly with one of these drives with 7200 RPM drive. But that and save files were the only time where I saw an improvement of high speed. So no, not slower, but not really all that much faster. I ended up installing an SSD in the computer. Now that was an improvement.

• The Sierra of MacOS will propose for the Mid 2009 MacBook Pro in the near future?

  I have a model Mid 2009 MacBook Pro and when I try to upgrade the software of OS systems to the Sierra, he refused my request to download because it "cannot be downloaded to this computer." I noticed other Mac computers, for example, iMac Mid 2009 or newer and MacBook Mid 2009 or more recent systems only one are close to mine are candidates to download the software, but the MacBook Pro is the only one that is not on this list for availability. So, my question to my question is, will be available Mid 2009 MacBook Pro updated to day for Sierra anytime soon? And if not, why?

  Please let me know what your answer is as soon as possible.

  Thank you!

  My answer is no.

  However, as long as I and everyone here, do not work for Apple, my answer is certainly not authoritative.

  However, as I've used Apple computers for more than 30 years, he never had a case when they released an additional OS that works on previously excluded material.

• Can I put a 2009 MacBook Pro? TO

  Can I pass a 2009 MacBook Pro safely to El captain?

  You can upgrade to El Capitan, but make sure first that you have a backup so that you can restore your system, if you find El Capitan too troublesome.

  Most of the problems with the El Capitan upgrades have to do with incompatible software. Get rid of any Mac cleaners, boosters, antivirus software and so on. Check all your applications and delete that you rarely use.

  You can find el Capitan is slow compared to your current configuration. You could improve performance El Cap by upgrade your hard drive to a disc solid state drive (SSD). You can now find a very reasonable price.

• what external hard drive should I buy to save a 2009 MacBook Pro with USB 2.0 port?

  I want to back up the hard drive on my circa 2009 MacBook Pro (13 '') with Snow Leopard.  There are so many things out there and I want to get the right one!  My MacBook has only a USB 2.0 port.  I need to do this because I take the machine to have the battery replaced and because I am buying a new machine soon and would like to transfer things I backed up on my new machine.  Any recommendations for what is the most appropriate portable drive would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you in advance.

  I use this external enclosure: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/MSTG800U3K/

  Can take any 2.5 in drive (HD or SSD).  I swap currently 3 bare drives (WD 750 GB Black) for familyvideos/data, clones, test data discs.  $72 seems expensive, but it has Firewire 400/800 and USB 2.0 and 3.0 interface for use with many computers.

  You have the original installation media supplied with your machine? This would be a way: use the DVD to boot from, format the new hard drive and then reinstall the operating system. You can then update/upgrade to 10.11.

  Other than that, your model was not eligible to have its firmware updated to allow for the recovery of the internet which is the only other way I know - at least the only other way besides a bootable clone, you did before your defective hard disks.

  Computers that can be upgraded to use OS X Internet Recovery - Apple Support

  Do not think to partition/format your new drive first.

  Apple has set the rates, price around $300 repair program.  I don't think you can get a price of paste elsewhere.  However, there are third-party sites that provide repairs, parts and helpful videos.  Google is your friend.
