  • Why the sound does not work in Windows 10 with BootCamp installed on MacBook Pro mid 2012

    So, I recently had a mistake huge hard drive, then I formatted the drive and installed Windows 10 I downloaded the BootCamp 5.1.5621 software (which is the version for this computer) and my audio didn't work. I've used Windows 8.1 in the past without Activation, but that was a few months ago. I've deleted it 2 days after I put it on the computer, but all drivers well worked out there. Although I plug in a USB headset and audio installed and worked fine! Help, please! I even reinstalled BootCamp!

    I have the same Macbook Pro 2012 with boot camp and dual boot Windows-10 and Sierra.

    Everything works fine. I think you have the wrong boot camp files.

    I think that you need version 6. Reconnect to OS X and run the boot camp assistant and try to download new files from boot camp.

  • MacBook Pro 2008 does not start. WHY? (Fix included)

    I have an old soldier, a Macbook Pro in early 2008. Like many others with MacBook as old as mine, I had the problem of my Mac, no start, showing only a black screen when I lit. He came to the point that I roll the die, each time that I chose to shut down the computer, I was wondering if it would ever start again. After taking in to get fixed twice and he'd end up and die after a few weeks, I tried a quick (and free-_-) fix I could do at home. (Note this isn't my question again, because I want to help some people who have the same problem, I had). I found a (I hope I remember where) online and I still thank the poster that has name up to this day.

    The idea is the laptop overheating, refresh, then cross your fingers and hope that it starts. Here are the steps I followed:

    1. Remove the battery (if you can) and connect your Macbook.
    2. Find two pillows for "sandwich" of your Macbook with.
    3. Turn on the Macbook and put it on one of the UPSIDE-DOWN cushions. (This is critical!)
    4. Ask the second pillow placed on the computer (always upside down) and leave for an hour and a half, running. (It may help to cover pillows with more effective coverage trap heat).
    5. After that he did heating, place it in a room different upside DOWN and leave it for at least 8 hours. (Night works too).
    6. Turn UPSIDE down and pray that it starts. Repeat the operation if not... But if this is the case, you CAN use the computer right up. Just leave the upside when you have finished using it.

    WARNING! This Act of overheating probably detrimental to the health of your computer. My computer is running stronger and a little bit slower than before, but if it does not, what really does anyway? My point is, there is a risk that is innate to this process, although I've never had any real problems with it.

    Now for my question: WHY? Why the computer have this problem in the first place? Even if I found a solution, I would know exactly what I'm fixing. I was curious and were all that I could never find solutions, but no real explanations. If you have any ideas or knowledge in the field, I would greatly appreciate a response.

    In addition, if you have any questions about the fix, please file an issue. This post is also a way to help you guys as well.

    This particular type of MacBook frequently has graphic problems. This can be corrected (more or less) by "cooking" the logic board. What you are essentially a type of cooking with a mild detergent. And it has been done before!

  • Do not start (El Capitan, mid 2012 Macbook Pro)

    Hi all!

    I'm having serious problems with my Unibody Macbook Pro mid 2012 since a few days ago.

    On Sunday, all of a sudden the computer really slow and G.Chrome used a lot of CPU, so I rebooted the machine, but on reboot, I couldn't get the operating system to start. I kept getting a white screen with the circle-slash (prohibitory sign) and a file of o Apple logo with the question mark that would Flash briefly before returning to the slash of circle.

    After leaving the computer alone for half an hour, it starts without a problem. I rebooted again to see if the problem disappeared, but he returned to the circle-slash. I tried the resets of LANDAU and SMC but no result. I couldn't enter Recovery Mode (via CMD + R, because he just left me a white screen). I got the computer to reboot again and ran first aid to disk on the disk and partition utility and I got a message that says that there is only a problem with the map of partition with could prevent from starting.

    So, I downloaded El Capitan on the App store, is an installation of the flash player program, reformatted the whole drive and reinstalled the operating system but I always get the slash circle approximately 85% of the time and cannot set the Mode of recovery without the flash player. Also, I can't access Single User Mode (CMD + S) I get an error that says something about a problem loading the kernel cache.

    In summary: when the operating system loads (15% of the time), it works well; but can not access the Recovery Mode in single user Mode.

    What are my options?

    Here are the instructions from Apple for your splash screen:

    Your HARD drive may also be suspect or the connection with it.  Try to access the Internet, OPTION-COMMAND-R recovery on startup.   Then run disk utility > first aid.

    Ciao.

    Mail, Version 9.2 (3112), crashes when you delete an email, sparking a boot on a MacBook Pro running E Capitan, 13-inch, mid-2012, is 2.9 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, memory is 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 and trash is clear. It's frustrating! I was unable to copy a part of the final report to include and cannot find where are stored copies of the reported errors. Thank you!

    Start Safe Mode removes the system caches that can help.

    Upper left corner of your screen, click on the Apple  > Shut Down.

    After your Mac stops, wait 10 seconds, then press the power button.

    As soon as you hear the startup tone, hold down the SHIFT key. You must press the SHIFT key as soon as possible once you hear the startup tone, but not before.

    Release the SHIFT key when you see the gray Apple logo and progress indicator.

    Once you are in Mode without failure, return to the menu Apple . In the drop-down list, click: reboot

    Then try to delete an e-mail message.

  • El Capitan on a Macbook Pro for mid-2012?

    In other words - my OS upgrade needs badly. Slowdowns of Safari and page gel side, I start to have problems of compatibility.

    I stuck with the Lion of the mountains (OS X 10.8.5) for a while now, and as much as I love him, I decided that I have to upgrade.

    In other words, how can I expect to run on a Mid-2012 medium-to-high range Macbook pro (chart below)?

    My main concerns are running speed and battery overall utilization;

    I do a few games, nothing too big (Guild Wars 2 and Civ 5 are the heaviest), and my use of safari is quite heavy, so speed it would be a good thing. I have the laptop plugged in most of the time, but I would like to know just would get worse how the battery life.
