Apple Diagnostics does not work

I have an old Macbook Pro which has become incredibly slow, and I say well SLOW.

I've done everything I know how to do several times including the PRAM reset, running the Cocktail application and use Activity Monitor to see if any process is eating the CPU. Nothing seems to help. I read recently about the diagnoses of Apple program, which ran successfully on my current iMac and Macbook Air, but on this older MBP, it won't work at all. Now I have the D key at startup to run locally and the-D Option for the remote version, the machine simply starts up - not possible to diagnosis.

I wiped twice and he restored from a time machine backup twice with no noticeable improvement. Are not unwanted startup applications and no crapware like MacKeeper has already been installed.

Anyone out there have an idea why the machine is not working the program of diagnostics? Or something I could try to combat the slowness that is so extreme that the machine is almost unusable? The machine is six or seven years and has been improved all the way to Yosemite. I have with me now, so, unfortunately, that I don't know it's exact age and which version of the original operating system was.

Thank you!

Try to download EtreCheck https://etrecheck.com/ and announced the results here.

Perhaps, that will give us clues as to what could be the problem.

  • My apple pencil does not work after the 9.3.4 update.

    My apple pencil does not work after the 9.3.4 update. I tried to restart but still does not work. Tried to forget the device and whenever I connect the pencil to the ipad pro, it is said that it does not recognize the cable / device. Help please.

    < re-titled by host >

    Greetings RechargeableJam,

    Welcome to the communities of Apple Support!

    I see that your Apple pencil does not work after update to iOS 9.3.4. I guess it's about to have a problem with something that worked with the previous version of the iOS software. I'm happy to help you to help you find the best resolution.

    First of all, let's close open applications on your iPad Pro. This can ensure that there is nothing running in the background that is causing a conflict. The following article will help you:

    Force a nearby application on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch

    Then connect the pencil of Apple and see if it is recognized for the time being. If you don't see the Pair button, wait a minute while your Apple pencil costs. Then disconnect your Apple pencil, Plug and back on hold until you see the button in hand.

    Best regards.

  • My Apple password does not work when I try to download the Flash Player

    I tried again and again download Flash Player on my Mac OS 10.9.5 and when I try to open the installation program, asked me my password and it does not work. However, I used the password to enter this community, and it worked. I use Chrome as my browser. Any help to achieve this will be highly appreciated.

    Hello Gail Rooney,

    I'm not 100% sure if you are referring to your account admin on your Mac, if you were not made me know that I would love to help with anything that anyone else. Anyway, if you need to reset your password for your admin account, so you can leave Flash Player just install, follow these steps and you should be able to reset the password of the admin account. You need to restart your computer. Then, press the command and R keys at the same time when the gray screen appears and hold them until you see the Apple logo. A low loading bar will appear under the logo. Then wait for the recovery mode to load click the utilities tab in the menu bar, select Terminal, type resetpassword, and press ENTER. Close the Terminal window and behind it, you will find the password reset utility. Everything you have to do now is to select the user account you want to reset, enter a new password or leave the field empty and click Save. Then reboot again and sign in to your account admin with the password you just put.

  • Apple Watch does not work

    So do not know how this will go down, but I think of my Apple Watch was the biggest waste of money so far, very disappointed.

    1. it just doesn't work very well, everything works slowly and measures are very imprecise.

    2. the quality is not great, that I am not wearing it will train in as possible just broke

    3. the battery is shocking that I'm sick of charging

    4. went the last updated and it has now crashed and locked up, keep trying to restart, but it keeps failing

    5. perhaps one should leave apple the money and they can keep the watch its terribly bad.

    6 apple thanks to the release of the new version of the watch so little time, if happy I bought the demo version I have waste. Maybe I should of applied for a job your PSU on the watch and you pay you for the privilege a cup of what I've been they saw me coming.

    7. can I someone please difficulty this watch, replace it before that I throw it in the trash.

    So disappointed in apple and this product just re apply my decision to consider away them from the brand.

    If it is a recent purchase and you are unhappy with it, you have 14 days to return it. You also have a 1 year warranty and can wear the device at the Genius Bar and get help with the device. That, or you can try the Troubleshooting device, but given your attitude in your rant and you only ask if anyone can fix it, I don't know that you would like help from other users. It's not Apple you talk to, this is a user to user support forum.

    We have 3 Apple watches in our family, a Sport and 2 watches from Apple, and all three work extremely well and achieve or exceed our expectations.

  • Apple ID does not work on a specific machine

    My laptop and my mobile devices accept my Apple ID and password.

    Since the installation of El Capitan, the Mac mini does not accept the password Apple ID. It's my only device that has this problem.

    I created a second account admin on the Mac mini and tried in vain to connect to iTunes or App Store with the Apple ID and password.

    I have a second Apple ID, I used to try to connect to iTunes or App Store, without success.

    I have reset the cache of the iTunes Store.

    I deleted a few accounts files and tasks.

    I mucked in the keychain without really know enough about it (this is the project of reading tonight).

    Any ideas?

  • Slow down the AirPlay - Apple TV does not work properly :-(

    Hello.

    I had a problem of airplay slow play movies, DVD or any video support 720 p or higher on my old one year Apple AirPlay and new Panasonic TV. I've been through problem solving, including restore and optimize my Telus router (which has 2.5 Mbps upload and download of 25mbps speeds) on an Apple Support phone call and was then advised to take my camera to Apple, BC Richmond Genius Bar (case ID: 1045139977).

    When I arrived they had me down as a problem Apple Watch, and then once they realized that it was a problem of the Apple TV me (despite what it says on the original packaging - I still have) it is normal for an Apple TV, reading of a film, and you cannot broadcast any video without a few jerks about about every 3 seconds. They suggested that I use a hdmi cable directly to the computer laptop and then tried to upsell, me a new Apple TV unit which they said it was much better, but "still could have the question!

    To say that I was surprised is an understatement, and a household with 4 iPhones, three Macbooks and a new Mac Pro, I was appalled by the level of service and selling the tactics.

    (1) if the device will not show a movie of 720 p, then market it as such is very hypocritical. Is this correct?

    (2) given that the assistance service knew it, so why waste my time sending me in a bar to put genius to to try to sell me another product? They have no diagnosis on the unit other than connect to confirm my question - and a clip ran slow and jerky in the store with their own TV and router.

    In the past, I received good support from Apple, but looks like things are going downhill fast if this is the new business model and the service. :-(

    It looks more like your network. I have several ATVS (gen 2,3,4) and always listen to content 1080HD homeshare/airplay without any issues that you note.  Since homeshare/AirPlay uses LAN speed from your ISP has zero impact (unless your broadcast outside as vendors, Netflix, iTunes, etc.).  There might be local interference that is nearby, appliances, etc., it could be setting of firewall/router that has repercussions Hello.  For example, in my cabin, I came across a similar problem, every 10-15 minutes, we arrived to realize that it is a pump water on the line of property installed by the Department of Forrest.  I ended up building an enclosure for the pump with the insulation. 5 years later I had no recurrence...
