MacBook Pro does not gel (Apple logo and turn the wheel)

Hey guys I have a Mid 2009 Macbook pro 17 "and it will not turn it freezes on the spinning wheel and I sometimes get a black or gray screen. and sometimes the changes to blue for a quick 2 seconds then back to gray

I tried many things

SMC - Reset

-Check and restore disk

-Repair disk permissions - at one point he said there is a mistake and I had to repair disc I fixed it and the problem continues to persist

-Tried to start in SafeMode but does not (same problem apple logo and freezing wheel spinner)

-Reinstall OS x into recovery mode - no luck

-Test LANDAU - no luck

-Mac restore to previous state - including all saved backups stays so just looking for previous screen of backups

Any help is much appreciated, thank you!

What exactly happens when you reinstall OSX via recovery?

It does not appear to complete successfully?

Try to repair the disk again. Report any error. Also in disk utility SMART status is listed as verified?

    It is not so much the Macbook Pro model as what operating system your help, for example, if you're running Lion and trying to download Itunes for El Captian.

  • MacBook pro 13 "stops after apple logo

    -Macbook Pro 13 "(end of 2014) with El Capitan

    After I did a reboot of the machine now my macbook OS X won't start, it just shows essentially the apple logo and a loading bar, and after a long period for the load bar (which is not normal) to arrive at the end it's just stops.

    I have all the updates, installed about 2 weeks ago. The last thing I did was to install an update to a Note, and then restart the laptop. I did no physical damage to the laptop or anything like that... so I'm naïve, what the * happened here.

    All the solutions to continue on that?  Any way to re - install OS X without losing my files? Cause first for this?

    Or maybe a way to fix the "boot partition" on it?

    Most likely guilty is the installation of a single Note - After all, everything worked fine until you did this installation.

    Try to see if your mac can boot safe mode (hold the SHIFT key immediately after pressing the power button).

    If he does, either try to simply restart normally (sometimes it's just a bad cache and start in Safe Mode clears him and everything is ok), or to uninstall a single Note.

  • Printer HP C310 hung wireless for MacBook Pro does not allow me to choose printing options.

    Just replaced my MacBook with a MacBook Pro (NICE!) I have an iMac that has my C310 printer Photo HP Smart connected on it.

    Pulled up the new laptop and it was immediately find and access the right printer YAY?

    I run an online business and am constantly printing on purchases (portable) coming in. My PROBLEM is that I am not given ALL the printing preferences options, all prints off the coast in color I don't need (price wise - considered ink as)

    The options are given to me on the iMac I think that since it is literally connected to it. However, on my old MacBook that I had a few days ago the options all came when I went to print (wireless connection as is the new MBP).

    Any thoughts? I tried to click on anything whatever possible in screen printing that is displayed when sending to the printer and he basically tells me what I'm doing not giving options for change to the basic black that I need.

    Thanks in advance

    iMac osx 10.7.5
    MacBookPro with Retina

    For starters, you can remove the software and reinstall it from the link provided below? Let me know how the printer responds and if these options are put at your disposal once more.

  • OfficeJet Pro 6830: MacBook Pro does not print wirelessly for Officejet Pro 6830

    I used to have an old HP Officejet 7210 who was once able to print wirelessly from my MacBook pro, but at some point, wasn't able to do wireless and had to print with usb connection.

    For Black Friday, we bought an Officejet Pro 6830 and on internet I downloaded the latest driver for my MacBook Pro and my windows laptop of wifes and our desktop PC. The mobile office and windows had no problem, but once more, I was not able to print wireless from the MacBook Pro. When I try to print wireless the printer dialogue indicates he's trying to deal with and then it says "the printer is currently in use". So I'll still have to plug the USB to print with this new printer is less than a month.

    I was able to print the wireless test page and he noted that the test page bypassed print drivers. In addition, I am able to go into the printer utilities and see how much ink, I have and the various settings of the printer but I just cannot print documents from applications wireless.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Hello

    First of all, do not forget to reboot your router by unplugging its power for a while, then let it 2-3 minutes to reboot and restart the printer.

    Make sure that the printer is connected wireless and blue wire it light.

    Try now to go to System Preferences > print & scan and click on the sign more. you see the printer listed?

    May you had prior display the problem started with your previous printer? for example a new router, changes of settings, etc. ?

  • Today my Macbook Pro could not start.  He showed me the ban or no symbol.  I was able to access disk utility and run first aid on the SM0256G of SSD Apple media successfully.  Cannot start in normal/safe mode.  Should I delete/install so I can?

    MacBook Pro 13 '' end 2015.  256 GB SSD drive. El Capitan last version 10.11.4. I turned on the Macbook Pro and it could not start.  The progress bar with the Apple Logo would be present but would end not showing the symbol «»  I tried to boot mode safe - no go.  I have not reset PRAM help.  I was able to access disk utility and run successfully the first aid. No help. I was unable to restore two separate backup.  The utility show me backups however when I would go to the next screen and no backup is available.  Disk utility displays the SSD.  Can I erase the disc and download OS X install?  Thank you.

    At this point, there is no need to delete. A new copy of Mac OS X can be installed directly over the old copy. This process replaces the components of Mac OS X on a file by file basis and adds missing ones, there will be no major throwing away what anyone, unless there is a power failure.

    You have already run disk first aid.

    Now use mode of recovery (command + R to start) to "Re-install Mac OS X. It should install the latest revision of the main version that you ran last.

  • My Macbook Pro does not recognize the Apple USB superdrive

    My Macbook pro doesn't recognize the superdrive.

    I don't know exactly what is the cause, but everything was fine before certain events.

    Upgrade to El Capitan

    Upgrading to Parallels desktop 11

    Upgrade to Windows 10

    As I said before these changes everything was fine. Another problem I face is a lot of cuts of my wifi connection and I have to disconnect and reconnect the wifi.

    If anyone has any idea I would be grateful to have the explanation

    Thank you very much

    The Superdrive Apple USB attracts more than the maximum power allowed. It can be awkward on some MacBook Pro. But the question probably for your configuration is Windows has reserved the player himself, and the side Mac cannot use until Windows releases, or you do a restart.

  • I have a Seagate backup and all of a sudden all my files have disappeared from him.  My MacBook Pro does not show anything in it, but it shows that it is complete.  Hundreds of photos are missing.

    I have a MacBook Pro and recently upgraded to Yosemite.  I used the time Machine before I upgraded.  My Seagate 4 T worked very well.  Started a back-up and he started to save and quit - Time Machine says something not be checked?  and then I noticed that all my files are gone.  I have a partition separated for my Time Machine and my photos and they are all gone too.  I'm afraid to unplug the Seagate and turned off my Mac.   I see that my external hard drive is still partially used in the two partitions.  Show my photos in Lightroom with the? Mark and I have gone and looked for the files but cannot find them.  Can I stop the external hard drive?  Can someone help me?

    Your external HARD drive may have failed.  Open utility disk, then run first aid > Verify and Repair the disk.

    Ciao.

  • MacBook Pro does not charge

    I feel that this question is asked a million times, but I'd like to walk you guys through my situation.

    Retina Macbook Pro 2013 (out of warranty of course) in excellent condition. Fully updated software.

    A year ago, I had a problem with intermittent loading. Of course, I went online and followed the instructions on resetting the SMC. Sometimes it would work, other times not. Sometimes the software updates would trigger the loader to activate when the system is restarted. I would like to try various outlets around the House with none of them work. Is my next laptop Apple certified tech and is it charged out of their fine magsafe charger. I thought, cool, I'll buy a new charger. I understand House and it does not load. This process is repeated for a year. I could get the new charger or one laptop comes with to work. After a time I kind of nailed what I could warm up the bricks of charger with the warmth of the body and get them to come. Kind of weird but it worked... sometimes. If fast-forward a couple of weeks. I could not the computer to load at all. I took a day and I have tried everything in the book:

    • Resetting the SMC
    • Try the different points of sale
    • Warming of the charger
    • Update the system software
    • Leaving the charger unplugged for hours and try again (it of in case of dirty power coming out walls and locks the charger?)

    So I took it to my local tech again and it started to load automatically off not only their Chargers, but both of my friends... He performs a reset SMC, talking about me on the House of tension circuits and sends me on my way, pretty confusing. I get it home and charge the battery to 100%, but two weeks later here I am again with a Macbook Pro which does not load... This time I even tried to load out of a UPS System.

    I consider myself very savvy computer, especially with the Mac. I have a decent background in electrical systems of the classes I took in high school and college. I read the manuals, I do my homework, I take excellent care of my devices. But honestly, *...

    Any ideas would be appreciated. I'll take in addition to anyway. My local tech makes an appointment and I can't get an appointment of bar genius until next week. I have a laptop dead at this time.

    I do my homework,

    Certainly, you made and excluded from all the obvious concerns besides a few non-obvious. The only remaining uncertainty, I can suggest is your domestic food, since your Mac seems to load very well everywhere else. Power of the Mac adapter intelligently will close if it detects bad quality. Other than to call it 'noise' Apple is characteristically silent when it comes to debate just what are the parameters it uses to accomplish this.

    Most inverters do much through food. An alternative is to use a 'real online' or 'double conversion online' UPS, which are more expensive because they are still deriving their battery power, thus isolating their input and output power. Another esoteric alternative that I don't necessarily recommend is to use a ferroresonnant transformer. They are inherently inefficient, but concretely achieve isolation even.
