MacBook Pro 5.2 die slowly...!  What can I do?


I got lucky to have had the use of a MacBook Pro 5.2 for recent years.  I had the chance to receive on the basis of a long-term loan, but it seems now it begins to die.

During most of the last year or so it has not lit immediately on the power button.  If it has been on standby or a stop, when I press the power button it momentarily gives his normal rev before clicking on turn off a few seconds later.  Until now, this process became plu i.e. I now repeat pressing the power button (two times up to 20 times or) more until it starts really successfully.  It's as if the laptop had to heat up to a certain temperature before she starts up!

In recent days, she gradually gets worse.  I usually leave all the time but now I run which means it close and start the long process when I go to turn it on.

I am currently uploading photos of family and vids to iCloud and nothing else on this subject would be primarily films etc.

Is there anything I can do to remedy this?

It's a long story but I can't give it to Apple to fix and I'm unable to approach my friend who gave me a.  (Let me confirm clearly that it is not stolen etc!)

I'm not the most technically proficient user of a MacBook, but I have a good average functioning knowledge, if you get my drift!

Thank you in advance!

  • I go out a circle crossed and he died. What can I do?

    I wiped my macbook pro using a command in the terminal. After the wipe. I get a flashing with question mark folder. I load the OS X disc. I now start the C"" key.  Then I get a circle crossed and then stops the macbook pro. I tried to do a reset of the PRAM, a SMC discount without any result. I tried to make internet recovery now 'R' on startup and when I connect to a wifi network, it freezes or gives me an error. I did a Deputy of the recovery on a flash drive disk and still, it gives me a crossed circle and stops. I tried another harddrive and still the same. I have a disk with Mac OS X pre-installed and put the macbook pro. Still, he died. I thought it was the purchased HARD drive I tried to work on different HARD drives and still gives me bar circle. I can't go in the disk recovery utility or the internet. Help.

  • MacBook Pro hangs (black screen). How can I fix it?

    Hello!

    I have a MacBook Pro 15', with the 10.6.8 System.

    About 1 year and a half, the screen started to turn black from time to time - quite often in fact - and I need to restart the computer.

    He stopped for a while when I spent of Chrome for Firefox, but began a few months ago.

    Often when I'm on the internet, but sometimes with other software too.

    Model is MacBook Pro 6.2 but it is not supposed to be in the faulty set.

    It has been tested twice in an Apple Center, but they could not reproduce the problem.

    Here's a copy of the report in error.

    Can I do to solve the problem?

    You said "model is MacBook Pro 6.2 but it is not supposed to be in the defective series.".  This is not true.  The model identifier 6.2 was a replacement for the defective discrete GPU program.  The solution is a replacement of the logic board, or as a temporary measure to use this app to disengage the discrete GPU:

    You can remove the following software and see if the panic stop:

    Also, disconnect all devices and see if the panic stop.  Then add them individually to determine who is the "problem child".

    BTW, apple app to grab screen Grab can save only img in TIFF format, and apple support communities do not accept TIFF format. It is not ironic at all. : )

    Once you take the screenshot using the clamp, it should save this file on your desktop. Double-click on this file. It should open in the application preview.

    Sure. If the computer problem, it is with the LCD screen or the backlight, you should be able to use it plugged in the external display. If the problem is with the graphics card will not help the external display. Your computer requires a dongle to connect to the screen and you must get the correct key for display - VGA or DVI.

    I have a laptop Macbook Pro with processor 2.2 Ghz, HDD 256 GB, 16 GB of memory, operating system El Capitan. I want to add up to three additional 3 USB ports with an adapter. Here are all excellent adapters available on the market to achieve this goal? If so, what are they, and they are available to plug in the USB ports and / or Thunberbolt on my laptop?

    I purcahsed an adapter but it only matches a port of type C, which is not on my new laptop.

    Thanks,-John D.

    What month / year is your Macbook Pro?

    Also is what size?

    i.e. of Macbook Pro (13 "Early 2011)

    If you need a crush on USB3, see this OWC. http://eShop.MacSales.com/shop/Thunderbolt/dock/OWC/Thunderbolt2-dock/?_ga=1.216 256982.1355932382.1452374654

    If your existing computer has USB3 ports, you could get a USB3 hub.
