Cannot install OSX!

Hello

Earlier today, I accidentally erased my drive HARD integer (own diskpart). It's true: no more side MAC and no recovery partition. I have a Macbook Pro mid-2009 which was given to me a month ago. I don't have the Mac OS x installation disc.

I tried to install Windows 8 and 10, but two installers stuck to the Windows Logo. I made a Yosemite OSX (from the Macbook Air of friend) bootable USB. Which stalls too. I tried two different usbs. At the present time, my hard drive 120 GB SSD is configured for Windows. It is empty because windows install has failed.

I'm at a loss to know what to do. What is going on?

Given that your Mac is too old to use Internet retrieval, you must boot from the installation for you DVD Mac and reformat the drive HFS + and partition GUID mapping.

Once you get this system reinstalled, you will need to upgrade the operating system from there.

If you do not have a valid backup, all your data will be lost by reformatting.

    Correctly formatted the disk, a boot usb drive correctly but the installation setup process takes forever! literally forever, I tried to install snow leopard, yosemite and el capitan with no luck. At Christmas, I left the installation of Snow Leopard running, and it must take a week at the end and then wouldn't boot. I gave up with the others.

    So it is that SSD not all supported and if it is not the question would be - this firmware?

    Start your Mac from the USB. Start "Disk utility", and check the SSD, particularly the SMART State. If disk utility tells you that everything is OK, open "Terminal" and type

    diskutil list

    Press the ENTER key.

    After the output here. Who will tell us what look like the partitions on your disk.

    Hello Viposhan,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple!

    Looks like you want to reinstall OS X on your computer.  I will try to help you with this.

    MacBooks 2007 came with OS X 10.4 (Tiger) or OS X 10.5 (Leopard) installed.  To reinstall the OS X on a Mac 2007 you need discs that came with the computer or the discs for any version of Mac OS X upgrade you bought.  Place the disc in the disc drive, hold the C key and turn on the computer.  It should boot from the disc.  Follow the prompts from there.  Recovery of the Internet did not become available until that models Mac later.

    If you don't have the original disks, OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) would work for a computer in 2007 and is available on the Apple Store online here:

    Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard

    Have a great day!

  • Cannot install OSX on Mac Pro 5.1

    I just got a Mac Pro 5.1. I just wanted to fly over my current drive from a Mac Pro 4.1 and the video card. I did and he started at first, then he asked me to download a driver of Cuda 7200LE. I did and have never been able to get it started again. . In addition to this, when I hold down the option key when starting, I get a screen with a locked padlock and a window requesting a password. Keep in mind that I just bought this computer no drive at all, not video card and ram.  Since then, I've added a Virgin SSD, 24 GB of ram from database SYSTEMS of MEMORY and set in a Mac 7200LE GeForce GT 120. I tried to get all kinds of passwords, none doesn't work, but why should a password to get to the selection screen of startup by holding down the option key? It starts either DVD, the disc spins, but I just get the flashing icon with an exclamation mark.

    Because the computer has a firmware password; This also disables the shortcut C. ask the seller the password, or if you have proof of ownership, contact Apple.

Please contact the printer manufacturer for the latest version of the software. "Could not find any help to search the HP Web sites and Apple.

    Hello

    I doubt that the original CD is supported by the Lion, without worrying that a newer version is available on HP.com.

    Remove the software using Uninstall HP under Applications > Hewlett-Packard.

    Then go to the Finder, under computer, go to the boot volume (Macintosh HD) and open the library-printers.

    Move the HP folder in the trash, then enter PPDs\Resources\Contents. You can search the 8600 folder and put the results in the trash.

    Next reset the system as follows:

    * Be aware that reset the printer system will eliminate any existing queue and reset all custom settings driver.

    Click on the Apple menu and then click on System Preferences.
    Select Print & Scan.
    Right click (or Ctrl + click) your product with the Printers list in the left panel and then click on reset printing system.
    Click OK to confirm the reset.
    Type your user name and password.
    Click OK. The printing system resets.

    Now download and install the lates below software:

  • Cannot install iOS 10.0.1 with Apple Configurator 1.7.2

    Hello

    I have 60 iPads in 5 carts (12 per basket) that I need to install some applications on. They are already configured and supervised with Apple Configurator 1.7.2. I've never had problems in the past with AC1, I've always been able to install the updates and applications easily with very few questions, because of that I've never felt the need to update to AC2. However, this time during the update of ios and refreshment, I get the error 'complete with an error - cannot install iOS' 10.0.1 And now 12 of my iPads are stuck in recovery mode.

    I tried before wipe them off and re supervise them, but I always get the cannot install iOS 10.0.1 error, followed by all the iPads stuck in restore mode. I tried to update only 1 or 2 at a time. I tried the update/supervise them with no apps queued for installation. I tried to restore the iPad via iTunes, which works, but when I try to put it back on AC1, I still get the same error mode and recovery.

    I tried searching online for compatibility with the new iOS and AC 1 problems but found nothing.

    I would like to know if there is more information I should provide that might help.

    Thank you for your time.

    Ben

    Hi Ben

    Makes your iPad successfully update to IOS 10, we have approximately 400 ipads, I've updated a single ipad at 10 IOS using our MacBook pro AC1 OSX El Capitan to test, ill try another now and see if its success.

    When you connect an ipad update the Configurator re-download the IOS 10 or use a cached copy?

    How your Configurator is connected to the internet (behind Proxy, Wifi, Ethernet), perhaps the downloaded IPSW file is corrupted and need to be redownloaded removed\.

    Kind regards

  • CS5 Panel blank file information: after 'archive and install' (osx)

    Hello

    After procedure archive and install (osx 10.5.8 Intel) I see an information panel on the empty file (all applications of Photoshop CS5 and CS5)... I have to force quit, how could it be solved?


    I have used it before archive and install procedure without penalty, must repair permissions on flash panels or someother?

    I have the same problems with Illustrator, Fireworks, and Indesign... only in file-> file Info Panel, I also struggle with 'quick view' (space bar) in all FLV files, they cannot get a glimpse of anything, I just saw one - com.adobe.flv... The reason why the panels did not work properly has a missing file to trust Flash for this location of the user. Without such a trust file, the built-in flash player refuses to "play"... but what mean? I do not understand this...

    Best regards. Robert

    Vanillaman, I see that you are still having problems with this.  I was also looking around, and this could be a problem.  For Windows, you want to make sure that you have the Adobe configuration file in the following directory:

    C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\FlashPlayerTrust\

    The contents of the config file is just the path to the file info panel:

    C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Adobe\XMP\Custom file Info panels

    I saw a post where they just put c:\, but I wouldn't not because it would allow any application install a flash anywhere on your computer.

  • Cannot install OS: "this identifier Apple has not yet been used.

    I just got my first Mac yesterday, a mid 2010 Macbook of opportunity. It's in great shape, works great, I was briefly very satisfied with my purchase. Then I tried to reformat/reinstall, as it does whenever purchasing a computer used.

    I followed the instructions here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204904 and when I got to the step three, after the failure of the hard drive, it wouldn't let me install the operating system. He wanted to connect first with my Apple ID, so I did an Apple ID, but now it keeps giving me an error "this identifier Apple has not yet been used in the App store" and then it gives me the opportunity to cancel or "review". Click Cancel simply cancels the installation, just by clicking on review also cancels the installation.

    An ID is not necessary, but there is no way I can see to avoid it say the instructions on this page. It was suggested that maybe I could avoid the connection on the way to recovery, rather than recovery of the Internet, but the Cmd + R and Cmd + Option + R give recovery of the Internet. I don't see any way to get to the regular recovery.

    I had a suggestion to install from the disc, but I have not all discs. If I could download it from somewhere and burn them then that would be nice, but the instructions on this page are pretty clearly that it should not be necessary to use disks. I should be able to do without signing in.

    So... what upward with who? Where should I go from here? Is it possible to do a regular recovery? Or bypass the Apple ID thing?

  • I cannot install extensions, they appear with "will be installed after you restart Firefox" even after that I restarted.

    Hello

    I cannot install extensions, they appear with "will be installed after you restart Firefox" even after that I restarted.

    The 'Intermediary' folder is present and rest after a restart, but the extensions do not get installed. They show in the extensions page with the message "will be installed after you restart Firefox" and remain like that, no matter how many times I restart.

    Any idea?

    P.S. Just tried to install the add-on "convenience store" before asking the question and I got an error saying that it cannot install because it cannot change the necessary file. (I did manually instead)

    I tried to delete the files extensions.* nothing works. However, I deleted the addons.sqlite file and restarted my computer (computer not only Firefox) and that seemed to do the trick. Problem solved.

    Thank you for your help, it is appreciated.

    Install OSX 10.11.4 I do cleaning but R command will not work. With the help of USB keyboard so not wifi issues to to worry. Help?

    Would you like to share why you must do a clean install?

    You can try the recovery of the internet (which will work if your older model has been updated to enable of): hold command + Option + R until you see a progress bar (take a while). It will connect you to the Apple servers. When you see the utility window, choose disk utility to erase your disk and when you're done, choose to reinstall OS X.

    PS: Correction: I think not yours can be updated; in this case, you will need the original installation disks to wipe the drive and reinstall.
