Bootdisk not found

Hello, my problem is that my macbook has stopped to find the startup disk.

I'm going to use imgur links to show pictures, I hope it's fine.

The question is on and off for three weeks back.

Data sheet:

http://i.imgur.com/Zi4czrS.jpg

(photo of the open macbook)

  • MacBook Pro mid 2012
  • SSD 256Go in startup disk slot
  • 1 TB of HARD drive in the optical drive slot
  • 16 GB OF RAM
  • Yosemite (he lowered a kind of El Capitan)

Commissioning:

When I run the macbook I have everything first hear the startup sound and get a blank screen brilliant (as seen in the photo). After a long while the apple logo appears, then a loading bar starts. After having reached a certain point of slow loading (maybe 2/5 bar has loaded) screen wet lightning and the rest of the bar of load faster.

(bright screen when I start)

When the bar is fully charged, I find myself in the os x window utility:

I know you'll say "well just fix there then!

Well I would, but the computer does not recognize the startup disk:

It is the second disc I have, the HARD drive, but the startup disk is nowhere to be seen.

Not even here:

Background:

The problem, I think, three weeks ago or not. When I turned on one day, it just showed a picture of a folder or something (have not had that since) and nothing happened. I could not connect or anything. I managed to get to the os x window utility I could not find the startup disk. I tried all night to find a way to fix it, but nothing works. I decided to go to sleep and when I woke up the next day to give it another shot, the computer instantly like nothing had happened and reopen all Windows I had to go the last time I was on that. However, the issue came back after a day or two and it was a problem of power since then. I have no control over it. After that, the computer started crashing over (I had a few crashes with this computer and never understood why, just freezes and then I have to turn the computer off by hand, start/stop button). These new accidents were quite different. The spinning wheel of death (loading wheel) can appear at random times and will not disappear and then whatever programs I use gel that the only thing I can do is to force quit the computer (with the hand switch). For some reason, one day, I checked my features. What was weird, it was that he said I was using Yosemite... I downloaded El Capitan probably a week after his arrival, and now after such a long time that it is said that I currently use Yosemite.

I hope that someone can help me, I use the computer for work and school so he really * when he died for days...

And sorry if the post was a mess, it's all from my phone and it is im *.

Thank you

Elias

That I find difficult to understand.

From the symptoms you described, I suspect you have a defective HARD disk or the SATA connection is defective.

Take on the MBP's HARD drive and install it in a Cabinet.  Connect the HARD drive to the MBP via USB and use the Boot Manager to start the MBP:

  • Someone smarter than me--help me please understand this - songs is not found

    This issue has persisted for a long time, but I am currently on iTunes 12.5 on Yosemite.

    At a certain point in time, and I can not associate with a specific event like an upgrade, a lot of my songs 13 900 became 'broken' - impossible to locate.  Not all, just a part... maybe 1/3 to 1/2.

    I of the wrong and has given several times, not wanting to do a radical reconstruction, I just jumped the songs that have been broken.

    I let iTunes manage my library - always have.  All files, including the "broken ones" are sitting to the right users/username/music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music/Artist...right were all I expect.

    I recently found an album which had two songs next to the other, each 'broken', the other plays very well.  If I go to the finder, they are right where they should be.

    If I look at the .xml, the key to the place said same location, any other name for the song... and this combo of place/song name matches the location in finder.

    Here are two songs from the Album even next to each other:

    Track 651 Sugar Magnolia is very well and plays, track 652 ngone Saturday night is "broken" and cannot be found.

    Here is the XML on the two files, you can see locations are correct:

    Here's the location of the physical file Finder of the two files:

    I DON'T SEE A DIFFERENCE:

    When I right click - read information in iTunes, the news of 'rent' are different - the 'broken' file includes the "file:///" and are not the songs that play very well (starts by / users /).   Meta-data are the same.

    The file above plays very well, it does not work (and it is compatible with all the thousands of files broken):

    So I am confused - any help would be greatly appreciated.  I thought I was going to need to do a simple "find and replace" to "file://", but after reviewing the file data and the xml meta-balises, I am puzzled.

    Oh Yes - here is the metadata for the song "broken" above which has the "file://" to the location:

    .. .it shows the location as the other playable songs... just/users /...

    puzzled

    Assuming that everything I laid out above are correct:

    How do you fix a large group of songs including "not found" If iTunes:

    (1.) the path and the name presented in the library xml is correct and

    (2.) the file is actually not exactly where the xml library says it does.

  • Device not found Airport Extreme

    We have an airport extreme connected generation via Ethernet to a switch that provides network access to our entire House (about 10-15 connections) via wifi access points all Ethernet hard wired (linksys + apple) and a direct wire to a PC. Airport extreme is the dhcp and is connected to a gpon fiber using PPPoE.

    The problem now is that the AirPort Extreme disappears from the airport on iOS Mac utility and Windows, it is found however the network and the Internet continues to operate normally on all connected devices. I can also continue ping on the router.

    I have reset the AirPort Extreme to the default settings, but the problem continued...

    I tried to unplug all devices and have AirPort Extreme only connected to him have the fiber but the problem persists...

    no idea how I can fix this problem?

    You describe a known problem with Back to My Mac which first appeared around July 13. The problem manifests itself in a message "Device not found" meant to be displayed in triangular AirPort your AirPort base station with a yellow icon utility, while the router of the device functions others continue to work normally.

    If you use an airport Time Capsule, backups will not work using that device or USB hard drive units connected to it.

    Apple will only be able to solve this problem, so all you can do is wait for them to do. If you want to contact them to tell them about it, using the contact Support link.

    There is a solution: on a Mac, open AirPort Utility and select file > configure other...

    For each of your routers Apple AirPort Base Stations serving their respective networks: its IP address and password (if you don't know either of them, read the Note that follows the horizontal rule below). Then, on the tab of the Basic Station , delete all the entries in the Back to My Mac using the 'negative' button, then click on Update.

    Which must be re-established appearance of this base station in AirPort Utility, as well as in a side bar of the Finder, if all shared disks are plugged on. It will also restore possibility of Time Machine to save on these discs, if this has also been a problem for you.

    If this seems to imply that you will not be able to use Back to My Mac until Apple fixes it, you are probably right. Well to diagnose problems of the CCMM is tedious work that I have not yet finished.

    Apple does not participate on this site except in a very limited way, so don't expect is not a response from them, here or elsewhere for that matter. We'll just have to wait for them to fix it.

  • Airport devices not found

    Hello! I have two devices from the airport: on the one hand at home and a time in my lab Capsule. I was away for 20 days and yesterday, when I came back, there was a problem with the two: my Mac cannot access these devices, they can connect to wifi networks hosted by them. When I try to access these devices via Airport utility, I get the error message "device not found". This message, both at home and in the laboratory, tells me that the device was part of my network before, and that I should check if it is within its range. There is an option to 'forget the device' in the end. It is quite strange, as other Mac networking for my laboratory do their backups normally during my absence. Could you please help me? Thank you.

    This was reported once many here recently.

    A 'solution' refers to those who have set up their base stations for Back to My Mac. If you did, how to follow recommended action is temporarily remove or disable this option, as follows:

    • Run the AirPort Utility.
    • Select the base and then station, select change.
      • Note: You may need to use the option "configure others...". "to access the base station. Enter the IP address of the base station, the default value is: 10.0.1.1 and base station administrator password when you are prompted.
    • On the tab of the Base Station, go back to the section of my Mac at the bottom of the window.
    • If you have entries here, select it and click then the minus sign "-" button to remove it.
    • Click on update and allow the base station restart.
  • Server not found

    EVERY Web site I click on give me this error on my Mac Book Pro page:

    Server not found

    Firefox can't find the server at www.weather.com.

       Check the address for typing errors such as ww.example.com instead of www.example.com
       If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
       If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

    Try disabling IPv6 (also check other possible causes).

  • Error file not found in Temp. Firefox does not start

    When I try to start Firefox (Windows 8.1 desktop computer) I get a full white screen with only the following error message:

    File not found
    Firefox can't find the file at / c; /Users/ username/AppData/Local/Temp/name of file (more than fifty characters long, all the numbers and letters without anything that looks like a real word and ends in /BGAW05 .htm).

    It of only a button to Try Again that never works and some directions to verify the name of the error file, or check if the file has been moved, renamed or deleted. I check to see if the file is no where on C: and it doesn't. It is there no file in Temp even remotely close to that name. I run Firefox with several tabs that are registered and come back when I restart Firefox. So maybe this file in Temp was associated with a deleted tab.

    As I said, this error message comes up full screen, covering the taskbar and not reduce it, restore, close buttons, as if I was running in mode Metro, I never do and will never do.

    Because of this error I can not even start Firefox now, so I had to become a user of Internet Explorer.

    How can I get Firefox to stop looking for this file?

    Any help on this will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    I found a solution to my problem. Looking in my info on solving computer problems, I noticed that some problems can be resolved by the administrator. I tried with Firefox and it worked. The only damage was that I lost the current tabs. But Firefox seems to work fine otherwise.

  • Why do I see "device not found" airport Admin?

    I have an AirPort extreme and my parents have a TimeCapsule. They are both showing the message "device not found" in the administration of the airport. We tried cycling power etc. Our networks still work, however we can not connect to manage and backups of my parents stopped. Is anyone else seeing this?

    You have Back to My Mac configured on your AirPort Extreme? If so, disable it.

    This issue was widespread in the last days. We are all waiting for an answer / difficulty of Apple.

  • Device not found, but internet work

    I have an Airport extreme with a capsule 2 TB that I use as a backup file.

    All of a sudden I can't connect to the airport time capsule. When I launch the airport utility, there is an orange triangle/exclamation point that fits the description "device not found". The router works well, since I am connected to internet (at this time).

    I tried to unplug the unit and time capsule comes back for about 2-3 minutes until the same problem occurs again. Factory of Soft and hard resets produce the same results. I know this isn't my macbook pro because it does the same thing on my phone as well.

    You have Back to My Mac configured on the TC with your AppleID?

    This has happened to me and when I removed my AppleID and disabled Back to My Mac it ceased to occur and the TC became visible again.

    I hope that Apple will fix this soon but it would pay record a call of support with Apple on this topic as well.

  • Airport Time Capsule device not found

    I have the time Capsule on the airport of the TB 3 802.11ac (bought 9/2014).  It integrates the latest version of the 7.7.7.  Just last week, I received the error device not found (.. .has been previously a part of your network... etc.).  The internet connection is always good and the component of the time capsule router still works.  When I unplug the device, it can find him but eventually will go down in a few minutes.  I also did a warm reboot, but some results.  Printer connected to the time capsule does not, nor does Time Machine back ups.

    Would be grateful of any advice on why the drive not found error continues to occur.  Thank you!

    You have Back to My Mac enabled on the Time Capsule?

    If so, turn it off for the moment in the AirPort Utility and restart the time Capsule.

  • Device not found in airport 6.3.6 utility

    Running a 5th generation I'm stuck. I checked a bunch of other posts and restarted all devices, as well as reset the base station. I also adjusted IPv6 at the local level.

    When I pull up the Airport utility, I get "device not found" and cannot connect to the base station to adjust settings. What is weird is I can get temporarily in Airport utility if restart my MacBook and the base station at the same time. However, it does not last long. I also see the drive mounted in the Finder all the time. A Wi - fi connection works without interruption.

    I tried this on 2 Macbooks, an ipad and an iphone. El Capitan running. I am at a loss.

    Someone at - he was able to solve this problem.

    You are one of the many ad today with this problem.

    for example. There is only one thread.

    Time capsule not recognized in the utility of the AP

    I suggest that you can still access the AE or TC using configure others and type the IP address.

    A 5th generation is the flat and quite old but more reliable than Gen6. But beyond 5 years they get flakey.

    If you mean a 5th Gen TC then this is the newest one.

    I am surprised, he's also missing on the iOS but who was more reliable version of airport utility.

  • I can not even open FF because the profile is not found, even after using the profile in order to create a new profile.

    I've recently upgraded to version 40 39.0.3. The first upgrade was not so I removed FF using the control panel (uninstall program). I reinstalled again, but I got the messages that FF was already running, etc. as other users have noticed. I open profiles (Open firefox.exe - p) and tried to open FF with the "default" profile that did not work. I created a new profile ("defaultuser") and FF open. (I have the box checked to use the new profile on startup). I have created FF as I wanted it, and then exit. When I started later FF, the profile is not found. The profile did not have the "defaultuser" profile, does not open with the "default" profile, but would a new profile must be created and FF to open and run. Quit FF and reopen produces the same sequence (profile not found, etc.) I uninstalled 40 and reinstalled version 39.0.3 and I have the same problems with this version (39.0.3), plus he's starting the upgrade to version 40, and soon as I complete the installation again. I uninstalled the 39.0.3/40 version and reinstalled 40 using the Profiles page to write this question.

    I removed the version FF 40 using the Panel of control/uninstall. I deleted all the files that have been "* firefox *" and "* mozilla * ' (and there are some). I rebooted, and then reinstalled FF version 39.0.3. I could we FF immediately (without having to create a new profile). I have not had any problems with a bad certificate of Google, Yahoo, etc.. I went to all the web sites open very well. I could restart, then restart FF several times without problems or issues of certificate. Meanwhile, I made no changes to Kaspersky, and as far as I know, Kaspersky works as he usually does. I am almost sure that FF 40 version has a certificate problem that I can't fix. I'm less sure if the original upgrade to version FF 39.0.3 to 40.0.0 (then 40.0.2) played a role in my profile questions. Regardless, I have a version of FF that works and auto-updated to FF is off (and it will remain like that until I gather a few of this blog and other insurance which emits 40 FF are ironed out). I appreciate the help that you (and jscher200 in another thread) has attempted to provide. While the issues are not fixed, the thread can be closed.
