Early 2011 MBP battery/SMC issues

Hello guys I have a problem strange battery with my mbp in early 2011. One day, he suddenly showed an x on the symbol of the battery and after having looked through the forums, I did a reset of the MSC. She failed the first time but then he got running. A few days later, a similar situation occurred still worked after a smc reset.

Now for the 3rd time in 2 weeks it occurred again but this time without effect on resetting the smc. I was actually a little busy so couldn't at the apple store for a check up and that 4 days later I picked the done a smc just for attempts and the battery is back. How to prevent this?  Battery seems fine (270 cycles) and on a 1000 Mah lost in quality (5400 now 4496).

Is this a battery problem?  Or a malfunction of the logic board?

Also it was not in a closet for a few days and where I live is pretty wet and it's winter could be condensation?

Your help is appreciated

It works fine now, but I don't want the recurring question, and as he is very good at the moment there is not much sense to take it to the store (it's quite far from here where I live)

The battery in a MBP is DESIGNED to operate up to 1000 cycles, but age is also a factor (among others).  If you get five years of service in a farm, you have found the right value, but batteries do not have an infinite life span.  I suspect that it is time for a replacement.

Apple can sell you one, or if you decide to go with a third-party battery, I can't THAT recommend NuPower sold by OWC or Anker batteries.  Bargains from ebay are highly suspicious and I would avoid them.

Ciao.

  • Early 2011 MBP 15 "dual SSD - lost with boot camp edition

    Hello community!

    I lost my mind with boot camp troubleshooting during the last week. This is going to be confused reading, but I'm afraid I got worse... So please try to face me.

    Starting point - of course I can install Windows 10 on my MBP 2011 early!

    Material

    Early 2011 MBP 15 "with Intel HD 3000 and AMD Radeon HD 6750M

    and the optical drive, replaced by an other SSD with a caddy

    Of course, I didn't have an optical drive on the spot so I realized that I need to install to get the option to boot from USB - I did find. I managed to make a bootable USB from. ISO with UNETBOOTIN. First of all, I got score of huge problems with that I finally managed to Dodge with diskpart - software on Windows Installer USB after NVRAM reset before each attempt to install with CMD + Option + P + R, I had to also remove the OSX SSD during the installation of VICTORY for everything the world some boring as Windows could not update the configuration to start the computer. Unable to continue installation -problem.

    After all:

    -> I managed to install WIN10 on my MBP education

    -> A lot of festivities fun! < 3

    -> After installing the bootcamp drivers all active windows went to "invisible desktop on the left" (I closed the other workstations...) where I managed to lift one of the windows on the central office with lucky and "move" action (I have no idea...)

    -> after reboot apparently drivers Intel HD 3000 went haywire and I got black screen on black with details in black (black screen Uni)

    Conclusion: I try Windows 8.1 (pro) because at least he is supported by my Mac AND it has same installation and should work.

    At one point I tried to use my old drive via USB to install Windows 7 and 8.1 pro

    -> PROBLEM CDBOOT: couldn't find the BOOTMGR

    -> I moved along back USB and WIN8.1

    8.1 Windows Pro was installed easily, with the same procedure. When running boot camp display drivers turns black during the "Intel - graphic" installation period. I can confirmed that starting mode safe mode when the screen works, but I can't install Catalyst drivers-> so I can not play games that was the only reason for dual boot. In addition, there is no sound. So lack of drivers: no picture, no sound.

    There... I think I forgot to say something. I was hoping just that if someone could help me with this problem. I lose my head here. I have not really direction where to go next, but I have a few options I can try after that I understand my morale of my troops.

    1. Remove my boot OS X SSD, switch my SSD Windows instead of him and put my Superdrive. So I would basically just install windows. Earlier, I had 8 windows work via the DVD and bootcamp.
    2. Try to play with the drivers on Win8.1 more
    3. Reinstall windows. There may be something wrong with my. ISO or USB?
    4. Delete the EFI to correct CDBOOT?

    Thank you in advance!

    You must use Bootcamp Assistant for everything, including the form/partitioning implementation and the removal of partitions...

    I would like to reformat the second SSD (on which should be installed W10) with diskUtility. Then start bootcampassistant on SSD1 and do all this.

  • Sierra is impossible to pass on MBP early 2011

    Hi, Im running an Early 2011 MBP which, according to Apple, info should take Sierra - but it does not appear when I look for him. Any ideas? Thank you

I know I have the latest version of the software can be exciting and improve the general use of everyday experience. I want to make sure that you are able to upgrade properly.

    There are several ways to access an upgrade.

    Visit the page of Sierra of macOS on the Mac App Store. Click on the download button and follow the instructions on the screen to begin your upgrade. If you do not have access to broadband, you can update your Mac in an Apple Store.

  • MBP early 2011 camera does not

    Hello

    I have tried everything mentioned in this thread, like:

    1. kill the process of VCDAssistant (I might have misspelled earlier)
    2. Reset the SMC
    3. Drain/battery AC only use
    4. Create a new user
    5. Perform a clean installation
    6. Use a third-party software

    Nothing I've tried looking at the camera. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

    Take your MBP for a Genius Bar for some tests...

    Mine is end of 2011 and I am happy that I am and control me.

  • MBP early 2011 start running slow

    Hello

    I use MBP early 2011, i7 2.2 Ghz, 8 GB RAM, 750 GB HDD (573 GB free). Its pretty slow operation and initialize the time is more than 3 minutes. I ran EtreCheck and the result is the following.

    Several times in a day, MBP stops responding for a few minutes. It was everything beautiful, until it has been upgraded to El Capitan.

    Battery back up also seems to be about 2 hours with WiFi on and charging takes about 8 to 9 hours for a full charge. I use the genuine Apple magsafe adapter.

    Help, please. Thanks in advance.

  • MBP Pro early 2011 starts after reset of the SCM

    So for the last two days my MBP early 2011 has abnormally slow fonctionnee. I use it mainly for music production with logic. For the last few days it has been slow and the sound was clipping out of my mbox in the smallest size of buffer when it the value never done before. I'm running el Capitan with a processor 2 GHz and 16 GB of RAM. I'm still about 134 left Go of the 500 original, it came with. So I decided today to restart it since he turned slowly and while doing that I have reset the SMC and since then it won't restart. It stays on the screen with the loading bar almost full load and just gets stuck. I hear the hard drive by clicking on, but I don't know what to do. I fix a genius bar appointment for Thursday but I need my MBP now so far here and I'm afraid of what they tell me. Any Suggestions guy? Thanks in advance.

    Got it working guys. Did a check and found some malware on it. Remove malware and all works well.

    Run the Console application in one of the following ways:

    ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

    ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

    The title of the Console window should be all Messages. If it isn't, select

    in the list of logs on the left. If you don't see this list, select

    List of newspapers seen ▹ display

    in the menu at the top of the screen bar.

    Each message in the journal begins with the date and time when it was entered. Highlight date back to the time you noted above.

    Select the messages entered since then until the end of the episode, or until they begin to repeat, whichever comes first.

  • MBP 15 "Early 2011: some keys not working not

    Hello Experts,

    I'm on a MacBook Pro 15 "early 2011 10.11.3 on OS X El Capitan.

    Now, some keys on my keyboard doesn't work anymore, only F1 - F9 (F10 - F12 still works fine) and the right SHIFT key.

    I read some other threads about this here, tried SMC-reset, reset PRAM, no change at all. (After reset the SMC he worked shortly, but after about 15 minutes even error.)

    FN + F1 - F9 does not either.

    Also, I checked my console to find errors, that's what I get when I press F1/F2.

    ATTENTION: assert (-1! = internal) failed in the function-[DeviceGammaContext isInternal]: 2096 in file /Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/AmbientDisplay/AmbientDisplay-58/Sources/ DeviceGammaContext.m

    This error no longer appears.

    I have to say, I got my Logicboard exchanged 1 week ago by an Apple Technician due to the graphic problem common with the older MBP.

    Can it be a coincidence? It has something to do with the keys without work?

    Thanks in advance for your help

    Chyllie

    EDIT: There was no liquid spilled on the keyboard, or something similar, also when I plug in an external keyboard (non-apple) the right shift is working on it and also the buttons Play/Forward.

    It was a bad connection to the logicboard, for all who have the same problem!

  • Installed windows 10 64 bit on MBP early 2011, installing the driver software stuck bootcamp

    Installed windows 10 32 bit on MBP early 2011. Bootcamp software support 4.0 installs fine.

    And then upgraded to windows 10 64-bit on the MBP even. But bootcamp software installs ok at first, then gets stuck in the audio driver installation.

    Can someone suggest me the right version of the bootcamp software please?

    Also, I even this problems from yesterday, my macbook pro late 2011 updated for windows 7 64 bit pro at 10 64-bit windows, then all my drivers boot camp work but when upgraded to Windows 10 pro, Setup stopped in audio only step no thing happened, thank you, I need to fix the installation for my mac files because I have more than work on windows today...

  • After replace new Board for MBP early 2011, if GPU problem will return again in the future?

    I have a MBP early 2011 with the new logicboard on it, as the replacement program (extension program of repairs to MBP to cause GPU) recently applied a few months ago.

    (my only original had GPU identical to everyone down to complain)

    My question is;

    is new logic board safe for heavy use? What are the differences between the original logicboard with a new, or it's just a new so it's average after use of a few years, it will be back again with the same question...

    any idea for this?

    Only Apple knows that information, but normally puts Apple redesigned parts for every Mac that are part of an alternative program to avoid the same problem in the future. However, we cannot say that for sure, but it shouldn't stop you using your Mac as usual.

  • MacBook Pro, early 2011 / replacement?

    I have a 15 "MacBook Pro, since early 2011. I discovered that the battery will not hold a charge. Is the solution just a new battery? Which is something I can easily do myself. I don't want to say that this is not not a value just like a certain store of fixation.

    Hello

    You can read this document from Apple:https://www.apple.com/batteries/maximizing-performance/

    Reset the SMC can work for you, follow these steps:reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac - Apple Support

    I'd give it a try myself before making any assumptions.

    Bravo!

  • Thunderbolt not connect not not on MacBook Pro (early 2011)

    Hello

    I'm trying to connect my early 2011 MacBook Pro to a hub CalDigit Thunderbolt. The Mac does not see the hub at all.

    I tried the hub with Macbook Air from a friend, and it works fine, so I guess there is a problem with my Thunderbolt port.

    The Thunderbolt on the Macbook pro port doubles as a mini display port and that works very well when connecting to a screen, but it doesn't seem to work like a thunderbolt (despite the lightning on the port symbol) port. Here is the report system for love at first sight. I wonder if I have the right firmware. I've just updated (10.10.5) operating system and that has not solved the problem. The point to use the hub to get connectivity USB 3 as the Mac has only 2 USB ports. Any help much appreciated.

    When you have tested the hub Thunderbolt on your friend's Mac, did you use your cable?  Maybe that's the problem.  If this isn't the case, then try reset SMC and NVRAM:

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

    https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT201295

    If no success, then the problem points to a hardware problem in the MBP.  Meeting in a bar in engineering of the Apple store for a FREE evaluation becomes your best option.

    Ciao.

  • My MacBook Pro early 2011 startup is extremely slow

    My Macbook Pro has now become very slow in recent years to the point that it takes about 2-3 minutes at the start and another 3 minutes for the Finder to start and bar + apps become available and be able to use (otherwise fury beach ball!).

    I always held up-to-date and think that the issue could have begun with a patch somewhere that might be too heavy on such a machine in (?) "old". I don't remember not to what update started... probably just after Snow Leopard or Lion.

    I did everything advised on the web, disk check, PRAM reset, remove and free on the hard disk, the cache of the system of cleaning with Terminal... I then used EtreCheck and the result was "below average", emphasizing 17 errors on the disk. What does that mean?? Should I reinstall the OS or should I replace the HDD and redo the whole machine? If one of these, how do I go about it for this laptop, if that's possible?

    Thank you!!!

  • I can transplant my early 2011 2.7 GHz 13 "MacBook Pro hard drive into my late 2008 MacBook 5.1?

    The battery on my early 2011 2.7 GHz 13 '' MacBook Pro just exploded, almost destroying the machine. As I need to replace the battery and the trackpad, I guess that's maybe a good time to upgrade to an SSD, leaving me with the old 500 GB 5400 RPM hard drive Serial ATA to play with. This hd currently has Yosemite and all my essential programs installed on it. I also saved it on an external drive via Time Machine.

    Meanwhile, I have a MacBook late 2008 5.1 I want to migrate everything to, however the HD is only 320 GB, resulting in errors when trying to make an update of Time Machine.

    Can I pop the hard drive of the 2011 MBP in my MacBook late 2008 5.1? Is the material compatible? The OS sees it's a different system at startup and make the necessary adjustments (No firewire, there less RAM, etc.)?

    If not, how can I move my Applications without moving on the entire hard drive? Or could I format the hard drive to 500 GB and then run the Time Machine backup? It would even work?

    A lot of variables here. Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you!

    I forgot to mention that the MacBook 5.1 is 2.4 GHz.
