• MacBook Pro will not initialize. Question Mark flashing folder

  -Macbook Pro 13 "Unibody model 2009

  Hi guys,.

  I have been a frequent visitor to the community of support here, but I'm a poster for the first time, so please forgive any lack of post I suffer from the label. I saw this problem here much and seem me to always see the same advice to fix, but I have never seen anyone who treat the same symptoms I had with my camera.

  My question all started when I tried to save something for the reader, and he said to me "you are not allowed to save this destination" (something to that effect). Then it progressed to a question on my Macbook to spontaneous freezing. It would freeze just constantly and I always have to force offshore. When I would try to start the machine up, it's always 50-50 chance that it should start successfully, often welcomed by the famous question mark flashing folder. I constantly by visiting an Apple store for the last year and a half on this topic and after countless visits, they insist that there is no problem that they can find. They always say down to "permission error", problems of BONE that have been resolved by resettlement and a faulty hard drive. I've dealt with them during this period and and still have this machine properly repaired on any occasion. The problem persists always just after I take the machine home and start right away, its still there.

  As time went on this issue, I noticed that the machine would often freezing when moved, for example moved a table at my knees etc. This has some time until that I have raised to clean the table under one day and then tried to do turn on and nothing. The machine refused to start, only to give me the question mark flashing folder. I tried to boot into recovery mode by using CMD - R and tried to reinstall the OSX, I read that it is a common solution, but whenever I start recovery mode "Macintosh HD" is not where. So I can't even try a reinstall of OSX.

  A man IT in my former work place had examined this issue before on another machine, and he said he had replaced the cable of HDD of the machines as the previous was damaged. When toggled, he said that the machine was working fine. It would be logical, as if the cable is already damaged and loose, I'm sure that the movement might just disconnect. I raise this issue because it is of NEVER once offered all the time, I in dealing with this issue and on further investigation in the apple forums and this seems to be a very common problem.

  

  This appeared on a boot up once and never since.

  

  And that's what I see at every boot up to now.

  I'm sorry to bombard all the world with so much information on this subject, but my frustration is quickly turning into madness on this issue, which have no one at Apple after countless visits being able to fix the problem. As it is the main culprit for me, the HARD disk cable, but I would not assume know better that some of you have known many more people.

  Any information or help that guys could pass my way would be greatly appreciated I was apparently no help from Apple repair personnel. If you have read and thought about all this I applaud you and owe you a drink at the mercy.

  Hi Yogi Wynne:

  I agree with your friend IT. Looks like the SATA hard drive cable has problems.

  The inside of your computer is not as smooth on the outside and rubs it hard against the SATA cable and can cause one of the traces in the short cable is causing hard drive problems.

  Here's where you can get a replacement cable, they are very fragile. https://www.iFixit.com/store/Mac/MacBook-Pro-13-inch-unibody-mid-2009-mid-2010-H ard-car-Cable/IF163-013-1

  Here's a video that shows what could happen. https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=Amg5w0rlwDo

  I might change the SATA cable and see if the problem persists.

• My early 2015 retina 13 '' Macbook pro intermittently "hang" on a wifi network in my house

  Problem: My early 2015 retina 13 '' Macbook pro intermittently "latch" on a wifi network in my house.  Which means, if I'm on my 2.4 GHz network, it works very well and then randomly - while remaining always connected to the wifi network - will lose its ability to connect what be it for 30 seconds to 1 minute. This occurs every 5-10 minutes. If I go to my 5 GHz connection, it works very well for 5-10 minutes. I keep having to switch back so that it could respond more quickly, or let them hang for a minute until he figures it by itself.

  Meanwhile, I can connect with my iPhone, Windows laptop, Xbox, computer, etc. without any problems. If I take my macbook in wifi areas, I have never run into this issue. I don't really know what to do, and faced with the conclusion this problem online - as it is a very specific set of variables causing problems.

  Please see recommended settings of WiFi routers and access Apple points.

  Despite these recommendations, some routers will work better with the latest Mac models if you turn the radio 2.4 GHz mode in settings and only use the 5 GHz. Note, however, that very old devices Apple and some third-party devices can then not connect at all.

  Some third party routers have advanced that you may need to change the settings:

  The encryption algorithm must be AES.

  The group key interval must be 3200.

  I can't give you specific instructions on how to change these settings, because all routers are different. Refer to the documentation for the provider.

• Question mark flashing at startup

  Spring 2011 MBP with EL Capitan.  Thus, used my MBP last night and he started beachballing and force apps to quit smoking, I started but performance has not improved and the beachballing continued.  Was not yet able to click on the Apple icon to restart.  So, off the power by using the power button to restart as I did several times.  Reverse and get the screen gray with the folder icon and flashing question mark.  Completely bewildered, because I have never seen it before.  Restart again trying to reset the LANDAU thought that might have some effect, nothing will do. So, do a quick search on the old smartphone and find out how to get into recovery mode.  Go to the utility disk and look for my HARD drive, but he's not here.  Only disk 0 and then below Base of OS X system, something like that, don't remember what he said exactly.  Yes, I knocked at the realization that my HARD drive is erased, but I wonder if it is indeed cleared or if some kind of virus or something could have caused this and that, somewhere, my HARD drive is still intact.  I know it's probably a long shot and wishful thinking, but I'm exploring all the possibilities before you restore from my backup.  I have not saved in a few months, so I really hope this is the case, because I've probably lost some important stuff...

  Any help would be appreciated...

  Thank you!!

• Early MacBook Pro - battery (old and new) lasts only 45 min

  Early macbook pro 13 "

  -Autonomy had become terrible, about 30 mins web browsing, the warning came on she was less than 80%, or whatever the threshold is battery.  To obtain the life expectancy of 6 to 8 hours.  I have owned since new, no spills or drops.  Its duty cycle is 8 hours on a charger, then 3-4 hours on battery every day of the week and another 2-3 hours on battery power the weekend followed by a full charge.

  -New battery installed 2 months ago was better than the nominal capacity, coconut reports 6109 mah capacity

  -New battery lasts about 45 min to 0% before web browsing and stops without warning or sleep.

  -Reset each possible controller, SMC, PRAM, etc.  No change.

  -Ran, he died 3 or 4 times and then fully charged hoping that it would be to calibrate itself, no chance.

  -Inspect the process etc. but the CPU usage is very low, only thing of note is because I'm on 10.6.8 the standard memory leak safari is still there, so must be restarted regularly, javascript is disabled.  Firefox takes about the same amount of time browsing and has a blocker javscript.  I have not installed flash.

  -Battery coco brings about 10 watts of power use while the battery is drained.  A quick calculation shows 5000 + mah used in 35 minutes isn't 10 watts so obviously, coconut is not reporting correctly.

  -Refill after low drain lasts about the same as usual, about 2 hours if I use the machine, an hour or so if his asleep.  Lived a few Chargers because of pines stick and blend.

  -The only other issue I noticed is from time to time with an external monitor connected so that the navigation in safari with Javascript, if you press some ads, the two screens in the black for a second and the computer screen will resume blurred with colors and lines, while the external display is fine. An error is recorded on the console (don't remember what it is) and then the screen is scrambled feeding, recorded increases of the coconut and the machine gets hot.  Nothing is noted in the activity monitor.  Safari shut down, sleep and wake the machine clears the display problem.  By disabling javascript, this problem is not triggered.

  -My next step is to replace the charge Jack / ongoing in the Council, but I cannot find examples of this help other people.  Its pretty cheap but.

  D ' other ideas?

• iMac G3 tray charger stuck on the gray screen with question mark flashing folder

  I recently bought an iMac G3 (charger tray, 333 MHz, M4984) and when I try to boot from an OS installation disc 10.3, there will remain only blocked on the gray screen with folder flashing with the question mark. Not only it does not maintain the keys C or Option, but it will not start up any combination of keys, such as resetting the PRAM or the NVRAM. It just starts and stays on the screen with the flashing folder does nothing. It CAN read the keyboard, because I can turn on the computer with the keyboard, it just won't start to the top of any disk or any combination of keys. Any ideas on what could be the problem? I just replaced the hard drive, but it was the same before I replaced the hard drive as well. In addition, the iMac had apparently OS 8.6 installed on it when it came, and I think I need to move to OS 9 and do a firmware update before you install OS X (correct me if I'm wrong), but I can not do because the iMac does start not in general of any combination of keys. Thanks in advance, any help is appreciated.

  It took charger slot, but I think that optional for the bin.  I think that you can upgrade the firmware with 8.6 for trays.

  You may need to reset the PRAM and NVRAM and Mac's Open Firmware. Stop the Mac, then it turns on and before the screen lights up, quickly down the command, Option, P, and R keys, until the Mac rang twice more after the power to chime.

  Then, before that lights up the screen, hold down the command-Option-O-F until the Open Firmware appears. Then enter these lines, and then press return after each of them:

  Reset-nvram

• MacBook pro running on IOS 10.11.5 does not connect to wifi on its own.

  My macbook pro does not connect to wifi instantly and sometimes not at all.

  While he looks for the networks, if I click the wifi icon, it shows my network wifi under 3 bars in the list of wifi, but even if I click on my wifi, it continues to search without connecting to it. After that it seeks for a while, it connects sometimes, but most of the time, a new screen will be pop up saying please choose a network and it will show my network on the list. If I click on my network and tap on connect, it will connect instantly.

• How can I transfer pictures on my Macbook Pro to a Flash drive

  I transferred my photos iPhone 5 c to my macbook Pro, but now I'm trying to transfer to my flash drive. I tried to find a way to transfer, but I can't find how. Please I need to find a way to transfer my phone is completely full on storage and I want to make my photos are saved on my macbook, but also from a flash drive. Thank you.

  Where are your photos on your Mac?

  If the photos are in an iPhoto library, select all the photos in the library and use "file > export" to write the pictures in a folder on your USB.  Or select the iPhoto library in your pictures folder, and then drag it to your USB.

• RAM upgrade for mid-2012 MacBook Pro question?

  So, I bought some RAM Corsair (2 x 8 GB) to install in my MacBook Pro for mid-2012. It has been well over a month now and I get freezes and flaws that were not there when the Apple RAM stock has already been installed. My question is... are it freezes and the seeds one result of the brand of RAM I have installed (Corsair) or the fact that I am superior to the amount of 8 GB of RAM recommended for this laptop of Apple to the particular address?

  Thank you.

  As you can see here, your MBP can, indeed, support for 16 GB of RAM. However, DIMMs must meet Apple specifications which are often much more demanding that really meant DIMMS for PC can meet. One of the advantages of buying from OWC (in the link) is that they provide 100% support so their products need to be designed with the Mac in mind. If you have no problem with DIMM Apple, but you do with Corsair DIMMS, I would say getting them replaced or, better yet, to get a refund.

• So many MacBook Pro questions

  Had a lot of problems with my MacBook Pro (A1286) that I plan to splurge on a MacBook Air BUT I hope for a last resort to save this thing.

  My biggest problem is that it is so incredibly slow. I deleted so - photos, music, documents - and I also made records of any repair over and over again. It is STILL slow. I almost have the impression that it's significantly slower when I installed El Capitan.

  My new number is with the trackpad. It barely runs. I have to push HARD for her to answer, and even then it only works when the user clicks on a given area. I don't know what to do. I understand that computers are machines and I've had it for a while and should be expecting it but it's so frustrating.

  Any advice would be helpful. Thank you!

  Batteries on older machines swell and disrupt the trackpad and keyboard.  Also a swelling batteries * may * but not always leak chemicals.  Assessment of Genius Bar of the battery may be a good idea... evaluation is free and probably done better to Genius Bar if it is swollen.

  The rest could be matter of simple software like install "anti-virus" which are useless and slow things right down.  But get the battery checked first.

• Updated MacBook Pro question

  I've been running Elements 9 on my old PC with no problem. I have now installed it on my Macbook Pro and activate without problem. However, it doesn't let me download and install updates. When I checked my Adobe profile that the product key is not indicated so I tried to install it but it says it is already registered. How can I get the key on my Adobe profile in order to make the downloads (and yes I bought this again, have the disks and the box, so not an illegal copy). Thank you

  The updater of PES 9 no longer works.

  Its cause is not on the side of adobe, your mac.
