• Impossible to install OSX on a MacBook

  MacBook: 7.1

  Reference number: FC516LL/A (A1342)

  bought as a refurb from Apple: September 2010

  HDD (hard drive, original): Hitachi 5400 RPM 250 GB (mfg, April 2010)

  SDD (new, solid state drive): Crucial MX200 250 GB

  operating system: OS X 10.6.8

  I'm upgrading to MacBook a friend.

  The battery has been inflated, so I replaced it with a SKstyle laptop battery , which seems to work OK.  Bonus: it came with the screwdriver necessary to remove the battery: Philips #00 and Tri-Wing Y1 (which sounds like a spaceship from Star Wars ).

  I also want to replace the original HARD with an SSD drive.  I could connect the SSD via the USB port and the HDD to the SSD to image.

  However, when I try to

  (1) start for the SSD with the SSD attached like an external USB, the MacBook drive he sees as a drive to boot - that is to say, START-> OPTION shows the SSD - but gives the following message is displayed:

  "You must restart your computer.   Press and hold power for a few seconds or press the restart. »

  

  This happens if I do nothing at the start, or press OPTION and select the SSD as the startup disk.

  (2) start for the SSD using the connector SATA internal, I get the flashing folder-with-the-question-mark icon

  

  (3) boot for the SSD using the connector SATA internal by pressing the OPTION key at startup, nothing happens.  It is never an option to select a startup disk.

  This wouldn't be a problem if I could reinstall OS X for the SSD using the Mac OS X Snow Leopard installation DVD.  However, from the installation DVD is also translated "you must restart your computer.   Press and hold power for a few seconds or press the restart button.

  

  The original HARD disk boots OK, attached as an internal SATA drive or an external USB drive.  However, I get the message "your computer clock is set to a date before January 1, 2008.  But he was doing it before I started tinkering with anything.

  

  My questions are so

  -Why not this boot for the solid state drive, and

  -Why do start the installation DVD result in kernel panic message?

  Thank you.

  Put the SSD in the outer shell. Start the computer from the original HARD drive in the computer. Follow these steps:

  Drive partition and format

  1. open utility disk from the Applications\utilitaires folder.

  2. after disk utility charges select the external hard drive (this is the entrance Out-bumpy with of the mfgr.) ID and size) in the list on the left. Click the Partition tab in the main window of disk utility.

  3. in the title of the Volume entitled plan set the number of partitions in the menu drop-down one. Click the Options button, set the GUID partition scheme, and then click the OK button. Set the type of Mac OS extended (journaled) format. Click on the apply button and wait until the process is complete.

  4. Select the volume you just created (it's the subentries under the entry for the road) in the list on the left. Click on the Erase tab in the main window of disk utility.

  5. set the type of format Mac OS extended (journaled). Click on the Security button, look for the button zero data and click OK to return to the window to erase it.

  6. click on the delete button. The formatting process can take up to several hours depending on the size of the disk.

  Once finished use disk utility to verify that the SSD is correctly partitioned and formatted. You can now clone SSD HARD drive. I think that Snow Leopard is OK with the cloning of a boot disk, so that:

  Clone using disk utility Restore Option

  1. open utility disk from the Applications\utilitaires folder.

  2. Select the Destination volume in the list on the left.

  3. click on the tab restore in the main window of THE.

  4. Select the Destination volume in the left list and then drag

  him the Destination entry field.

  5. Select the volume of the Source of the list on the left and drag it to

  the Source field.

  6. check understood you, and then click Restore.

  Destination means the external SSD. Source means that the boot disk internal.

  I now open the startup disk and set the SSD as the diskette of starting, restarting the computer to be sure, everything is fine. Make sure that you set the date and time correctly.

  In regards to the DVD, it's one provided with the computer originally? If you still have the panics of the kernel at startup, then it is a hardware problem in the computer itself. You can run the Apple Hardware Test to check the hardware - restart the computer. At the chime hold down the "D" key until the computer starts the AHT.

• MacBook pro 2009 with new SSD try to clean install Yosemite or TM disaster restoration.

  Hello.

  I think this is going to be a difficult discussion.

  Unibody MacBook Pro 2009. Original Apple HDD with Yosemite 10.10.5.

  Two months ago, that my HARD disk is dead.

  I installed a new SATA II Toshiba 1 TB HARD drive and through the recovery of TM all went well.

  A couple of weeks, my 'new' SATA II Toshiba 1 TB HDD started to scratch a little (I mean literally zero while reading/writing), so I thought he would die soon again. This time, I decided to buy an SSD in order to have better performance and superior durability.

  So I bought a Toshiba 248 Gb SSD. I'm not a big fan of Toshiba, but where I live, it's the SSD only I found in the store.

  I removed the old HDD, I installed the new SSD and where my nightmare starts.

  First of all, I tried with a new Installation of USB from Yosemite. I followed all the passages and the installation completed in about 9 days. Yes you read that right: 9 days. The progress bar runs for 9 DAYS.

  At the beginning I obviously interrupted the first couple of facilities when the progress bar was like "12 minutes at the end" for three or four hours, but then I read in many articles and support threads that it is quite usual installation seeks stuck for hours or days, but if you open the log console computer is always something. So I gave him his time and the third or the fourth installation I waited my NINE DAYS to be finished.

  Then when the installation ended the restarted mac of himself and is stuck at the loading screen with his beautiful Apple and the progress bar frozen at about 50%.

  I froze for about 4 or 5 hours of average.

  I found a few articles that sometimes happens, and all you have to do is to force the computer to shut down and start again. So I tried to force the shutdown by holding down the power button and after the reboot it just keeps starting with and stuck at first infinite progress bar.

  So I reboot on CMD + R to get a clue, if I got in trouble on the SSD or what. I run disk utility and found that on my SSD were about 290,000 files and many files as the Yosemite was finally installed. I tried to check the permissions, but it says less than a minute and then got stuck at halfway to complete 15 minutes, so I stopped it.

  After that I think 4 or 5 attempts to start new fresh install on my Yosemite and clean, I reset the SSD erase decided to start all over again.

  I died a little inside while doing it. Same as the erasure was so f * king quick to finish! (about 50 seconds, sonofa 'byte').

  Then I tried to not reinstall Yosemite again (the nightmare of 9 DAYS still has me) but I have tried a new way: recovery of TM.

  Just to say my original TM backup was about 340 GB and my new SSD is 248 only while it was quite clear he wasn't.

  I connect my external TM drive to another computer and I worked the ' delete all backups of * file * ' to get a smaller backup TM.

  Now, I moved a lot of things outside the TM backup and the new dimension of the TM backup is about 90 GB (I want to say that the whole folder backups.backup is about 90 GB), in fact I moved the other stuff was also inside the external Western Digital drive and is now free space Go 910 (, hence the content of the WD is just the TM backup folder this weight about 90 GB), but I still have the 'this drive doesn't have enough space to restore your system.', it's totally A LIE.

  Never mind. I accepted the idea that sometimes even computers are ashamed of themselves and begin to tell lies. I can handle. There was a holy man in the history without any sin. So, ok, no problem. I'm not upset or anything. I can get over it (mf you little liar!).

  Think of manually restore the files that I needed once I have a BONE in my new SSD, I used the same external disk to create a new backup from another computer, my Mac Mini TM. Everything went well and I got a new Mac Mini TM backup about 60 GB (it's much less than 248 GB of my new SSD).

  I reboot the Macbook again to try to restore the backup, Time Machine of Mac Mini and everything seems to work, except for:

  -progress initially said about 650 hours needed to complete the restoration ago.

  -I went to sleep and let the machine itself working together on the restoration and when I woke up this morning I found that the rest of the time was "fair" 52 hours.

  -J' was a little happy to see this, until the Rainbow rolling ball appears. Everything got stuck again. I force shutdown and then try to restore it.

  Now it works again and the remaining time is close hours 672 (and growing). I'll give it another chance. We'll see.

  Now, I have four questions to ask you:

  1. you have an idea (with the exception of a curse or a matter of black magic) WHY all this happened? And of course if there is something wrong and I can work to fix it otherwise?

  2 are there special settings to enable/disable/configuration/whatever to create works faster still to understand that it doesn't properly before discovering this NINE DAYS or 672 HOURS right now?

  3. when we agreed that something like that was acceptable? I used to be a project leader in the world of ICT and in 20 years I NEVER, I say NEVER, released a product/app/site Internet/solution that considers that an option taken 9 DAYS to install or something like that. NEVER. Do not forget that we are talking about Apple and an operating system. I think Windows is laughingly taking revenge.

  4. do you think that for me it is time to let Apple and go back WIN + PC? It's quite frustrating and I use the computer to WORK, not to play games video and this is not the kind of operativity expect after paying a little more for material, a little more for software, a little more to be part of what it is supposed to be the one that had the best choice (index not be not it kills me).

  I thank in advance for any help/tip, you can provide.

  Alberto

  This is a fairly long post. What I would say is:

  1. the next time get a hard drive from a company with a good reputation like Samsung (best SSD ever, I have several internal parts and a laptop EVO). I get them shipped.

  2. as you use the Mini, the recovery partition allows you to install a new copy of Mac OS X, and then use the Migration Wizard to move your stuff.

• Use the iPad pro as a second screen on a Macbook Pro 2009 with OSX running on it.

  Hello
  I am to buy an iPad Pro and I would like to know if there is a chance that it might be connected as a second monitor on a Macbook Pro 2009 running Mac OS x Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
  Thanks in advance for your help.

  M.

  Hello

  You cannot connect them with wires. You can, however, all these 2 combinations of applications, use using your wifi home network:

  http://Lifehacker.com/the-best-second-screen-app-for-iPad-1706351639

  http://getidisplay.com/

  However, they all need two OS 10.9 (Mavericks) or later, which means that the configuration is not possible under Snow leopard.

  Your Macbook Pro supports the latest OS X (El capitan), you can update, although it will significantly slow down your computer as well unless you add an SSD.

  See you soon,.

• MacBook Pro 2009 with slow SSD on El Capitan

  Hi all

  I recently put on the upgrade to El Capitan of Mountain Lion, that my Macbook Pro 2009, updated with a crucial v4 SSD and 8 GB ram, was very happy.

  Had a very difficult installation that hung a few times, but finally got it set up after resetting the PRAM.

  Since he has been very, very slow - beachball right turns and towers - opening an application are a 5 minute job. Printing takes 10. The SATAII connection shows as being to 3 GB, so it should be good. Any other El Capitan on a 2009 MBP running seem happy with it. I activated the trim, it made no difference.

  I was not able to find someone else in line with the same config or problem, so grateful if someone has experience - I was wondering if it is worth getting an SSD different, or even the original HDD back in?

  Thank you!

  When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is particularly bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.

  These must be run as administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.

  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

  SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ all Messages

  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.

  Copy messages to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command + V.

  The journal contains a large amount of information, almost all this is useless to solve any particular problem. When you post a journal excerpt, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.

  Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  When you post the journal excerpt, an error message may appear on the web page: "you include content in your post that is not allowed", or "the message contains invalid characters."

• U2715H, MacBook Pro 2009 connection problem,

  Hello

  You just bought a U2715H, which is beautiful when you work with my MacBook Pro 2009. When I first set up, using the mini-DV to DV cable the minitor showed no link. Once again the connection several times the monitor came to life and everything was fine. Then I have experienced intermittent flicker - it would be turned off, turns on for a while, then turns off. After a few minutes he would return. I see that some people have had this problem, but I don't know what is the cause or the cure. I tried to run the diagnostics of the manual, and these were unremarkable. Now, having completed these tests I have re-attached the cable and I get zip. Recommendations on the cause/remedy? thx a lot

  Alan

  Unfortunately, Dell does not validate the test / most of our models of monitors ports on Apple hardware and software. Then, it will be a better idea.

  

  You wrote mDV to DV. I think you meant the mDP to DP cable U2715H? Based on the U2715H image below, you connect that way?

  MacBook Pro CDM on--> U2715H mDP to DP--> DP U2715H # 5 cable

  

  The U2715H is expected to ship with DP disabled 1.2. You can try to open the U2715H Menu OSD (On Screen Display page 26) - view and see what's on DP 1.2. I doubt that this older Apple can support 1.2 DP, but you can try enabling it and see what happens.

  You should also post on the Apple Discussions Forum and see if they can offer some insight or the troubleshooting steps.

• Windows 10 install on mid 2010 Macbook Pro 6,1 (2.66 17 ")

  I'm trying to install 10 Windows on my Macbook.

  My Macbook is:

  MacBook Pro, Mid 2010 6.1 2.66 ghz

  8 gb Ram (standard)

  500 GB HDD (standard) Samsung 850 Evo 500 GB SSD

  El Capitan 10.11.2 OSX

  I try to install windows from ISO 10 Windows available on the Microsoft website.

  (https://www.microsoft.com/en-au/software-download/windows10ISO)

  My first question was that I could not create a bootable USB drive using bootcamp on my MacBook model.

  I followed this guide to change the info.plist file and create a USB bootable with bootcamp. (http://tsentas.net/create-a-windows-7-or-later-version-install-disk-missing-on-e l-capitan /)

  I got to the point where I select the BOOTCAMP partition I would like to install, however, received the error:

  "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk is a MBR partition table. On EFI systems, Windows cannot be installed on GPT disks. »

  I solved the problem of GPT/MBR by using this guide: http://superuser.com/questions/508026/windows-detects-gpt-disk-as-mbr-in-efi-boo t

  Then installing windows told me that my hard drive was not, I tried to continue the installation, but that failed. I checked the disk utility, and of course my disk S.M.A.R.T. status was "not..." So I've upgraded to a Samsung SSD (can't believe I did this more soon... so much faster)

  Where I am: The installation now progresses from player selection and copy files. However, I get the error at the very end:

  
  

  "Windows could not update the configuration to start the computer . . Installation cannot continue. »

  I tried to delete, reformat the partition in the windows installation. Re-partitioning via bootcamp and resetting the PRAM I have worked for others. (rebooting and holding CMD + OPTION + P + R)

  However, I'm stuck now.

  Please HELP. It drives me crazy.

  Thanks in advance.

  You've seen just the tip of the iceberg. You install an EFI operating system no UEFI Mac compatible. Can you run a SMC reset - reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac - Apple Support and try again? Most likely, it is impossible to create/update the BCD. Be aware that you will encounter problems of driver or hardware may not appear when you use EFI boot.

  A better method is to install W7 / W8 + and then upgrading to W10 on-site. If you have purchased a license W10, this cannot be a valid option.

• Install El Capitan on MacBook Pro early 2011 OS 10.7.5

  Hello!

  My friend has a MacBook Pro running OS 10.7.5 (early 2011). The computer is awfully slow, far worse than my laptop with similar specs that has had upgrades of the OS of the routine.

  Apple says you can upgrade directly to El Capitan of 10.7, but my question to you is, do you think it would be better to:

  (a) to keep the computer as-is and upgrade to El Capitan via the App Store

  (b) factory restore the original OS and then move on to El Capitan via the App Store

  (c) charge El Capitan on an external drive and then install El Capitan to the laptop from the external drive

  (d) another method

  Thanks a ton!

  (I should have noted - there is not any number of files or applications on the computer that must be kept - just a few photos, music and documents that are already stored on an external drive)

  I would like to improve my storage capacity by installing a HD or SSD. I know the SSD is much faster, but they are much harder to find and more expensive and seem less store.
