• Early 2011 MacBook Pro GPUS

  Afternoon of God,

  I ran into a problem with my Early 2011 MacBook Pro. While I was working on my mission, my Mac stops completely. I try to restart it again, the screen is grey with red lines on the screen. As he invites you to the Apple logo it load half-way before it stops.

  I rebooted several times and get the same result.

  Can you help me with this problem.

• 2011 Macbook pro running slow and beach balling

  My Early 2011 Macbook pro worked extremely slow for a few months.  He is lagging in the start-up and opening of all applications.  It also happened to coincide with my Wifi, refusing to recognize my Macbook, he repeated that a device was already on the network with the same IP address. I tried reseting the IP address several times.  But since he has never done this on other networks I received a new router this week and have not had a problem until now.

  The biggest problem is the race slow, hot and delay.  I have 8 GB of RAM and a 1 TB hard drive. I'm running OS X 10.11.5. Any suggestion or help is greatly appreciated!

• End of 2011 MacBook Pro update

  Can I use memory Module Apple 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 (PC3-12800) - 2 x 4 GB to upgrade my end 2011 MacBook Pro (4 GB / 1333 Mhz)?  The representative said it's for 2012, but I read here that some have used it without problems on years later.

  Mac can be very picky with ram, unlike Windows machines. For that it works better with no trouble now or later, be sure to buy ram designed for Macs. Match sticks and speeds. Some Mac does not start if a faster ram is used. Go with 2 x 4 GB 1333 mhm, same SODIMM, made for Apple products.

• How can I switch from OSX Lion 10.7.5 to El Capitan on my end 2011 MacBook Pro?

  How to move from OS X Lion 10.7.5 to El Capitan on my end 2011 MacBook Pro? I get an error 'install the distribution of the error signed by apple. I'm sure I need first to switch to something else, but I have no idea where to start.

  1. check all your applications to ensure compatibility with ElCapitan.

  When those you want to keep (as possible) have a compatible update: you can update after installation.

  2 ElCapitan performs better with more than 4 GB of Ram, although in very low load systems, it runs on 2 GB.

  3. your hard drive doesn't have to be "nearly complete."

  4. go in the Appstore and download ElCapitan (the download comes in your Applications folder)

  The installer is removed after installation, so if you like to keep a copy before starting the installation.

  5. install all applications updated.

• Lion running on base 2011 MacBook Pro afraid of: upgrade to "El Capitan."

  I have a base 2011 MacBook Pro running Lion 10.7.5. It becomes kind of slow, but I just had it looked at. No problems. I'm afraid of a free upgrade to El Capitan as it may run more slowly. I have much stored and not in the game. Think to pay shop install for $30 Mountain Lion. Thoughts?

  There should be a reason why a Mac starts running slow.  First find the reason (s) and then upgrade.

  A good starting point is a download and publishing a report Etrecheck:

• How to replace the hard drive with an SSD on a model of end 2011 MacBook Pro 15 inch, A1286

  Hello

  I would like to replace the hard drive on my model of end 2011 MacBook Pro 15 inch, A1286 with a disk solid state drive (SSD). First of all, I would like to know if this is possible. Second, what is the best way to do it? I'm under the Yosemite OS if that makes a difference.

  Here are some technical details of my current system:

  -MacBook Pro 15 inch, late 2011 model A1286

  -OS yosemite

  -16 GB of memory/RAM

  -Currently using stock HD

  All instructions step by step would be helpful with what software should I use to make backups of my current operating system (e.g., SuperDuper). I would also like to know what tools or material I need like type of screwdriver, cables to transfer data to the SSD, etc.. My goal is to not have to reinstall each app one by one on the SSD, but if that's the only way to do it then it's okay.

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  You can see instructions OWC here. Tools are mentioned in the discussion (I used a plastic knife picnic with the stronger edge somewhat blunt for nylon pry tool). I suggest you invest in one of these external fences. Install the SSD in who and clone internally externally with CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper. Then move the external drive of the internal drive after the start of the SSD in the external to confirm the operation.

• Cintiq 21UX DTZ-2100 Compatible with end 2011 Macbook Pro?

  Everyone successfully connected a Cintiq 21UX to an end 2011 macbook pro? I could make using Windows 7 via bootcamp, however I was unsuccessfully trying to get IOS Lion to recognize the monitor. Am I missing something? I'm using the latest drivers and a DVI - I to mini display port connector.

  Thank you!

  M rich

  As much as I hate to say it, for the sake of someone else who has this problem, I'll answer my own question. I talked to a representative WACOM today and they asked if I'd handed the switch at the rear of the CINTIQ to DVI mode or if it was the VGA mode. Of course, it is VGA. After I hit the switch of the CINTIQ worked perfectly.

• 2011 Macbook Pro late since the SSD upgrade

  Hello world. Just a heads-up that is my first question. Also, I like to think I'm good with computers but I'm no computer programmer, so I will try to describe my problem the best I can. My friend (who does) has updated my macbook at the beginning of 2011 pro with an SSD (brand is Crucial and 480 GB). As a side note we also tried with a Kingston brand and had the same problem. I'm pretty confident, that it was installed correctly. Since the upgrade, some functions are faster. For example open Google Chrome is faster than before the upgrade. I have problems when I look at the files and the use of the files stored on my hard drive. For example, when I watch a video that is saved on my hard drive on VLC (Quicktime) it will freeze all the minutes for at least thirty seconds. Also scroll through files Finder can lead to this gel. We are not quite sure what the problem is (my friend, so that good with the Mac is more of a PC guy). I saw other people posting here and thought maybe you all could help! I noticed that EtreCheck is very popular, so I made one of these reports for more details. I appreciate any feedback you can offer

  I had a similar experience (occasional random delay of tens of seconds) upgrade my 13 "2011 MBP ("8.1"model), but my SSD was MacSales (Other World Computing). Their customer support has been excellent. They had me download and run a program of comparative analysis (Quickbench; it was free for me but apparently now costs $15) who served the SSD and allowed them to diagnose the problem as a bad 'HDD cable. I was dubious, but I went to an Apple store nearby, and after a lot of hassle, pushed them to replace the cable and that fixes the problem.

  Of course, you might have a different problem but the defective hard drive cable is apparently quite common and appears only when you use SSDS (because of the faster transfer speeds, I guess).

  As I recall (it was several years ago), the first Apple tried to make me pay $60 for the cable, more work, before they admitted he was covered under AppleCare. It is easy to replace. iFixit carry the cable and has great instructions to replace, but they seem to be out of stock at the moment (they have a button "Notify Me" for when it becomes available again). Try a local supplier of Apple authorized (use the Locator).

  When you get your SSD is working properly, I hope that you will be very happy with it. It makes a huge difference for me.

• Is my 2011 macbook pro the neck of the bottle in my LAN slow transfer speed?

  Hello

  I have a macbook pro 2011 and I recently bought a buffalo LS 520 NAS, but when you try to transfer data through my wifi network that speeds are painfully slowly.

  WiFi area speeds as follows:

  Upload: 0,6906480 MB/s

  DOWNLOAD: 6,2196480 Mbit/s

  And here's the transfer speeds for the macbook pro on the NAS directly connected via ethernet

  Upload: 62,689 Mbps

  Download: 796.3651920

  I have a Sky Home Hub router 2013 (144Mbps and 2.4 GHz)

  I think that the might of bottleneck the NIC in my macbook pro, but I am not sure. Even if that were the case, the speeds above seem very slow. I am planning to buy a new router to see if that improves things, but will it be useless if the speed is dictated by my macbook?

  You need a router more...

  Especially if you want to use wifi for transferring files you need in 5 GHz... so I don't spend much time worrying about this.

  Get a new router... you can plug into the hub of the sky... It should be wireless AC so it may be a new extreme Apple or it can be a dozen different brands... all that is readily available and reasonable price... but I highly recommend types AC1900 like Netgear R7000, Asus RT-AC68U or C9 of TP-Link.

  Once you have plugged it in the WAP configuration / Skyhub mode (bridge on the extreme) we can establish if there are still questions what is happening.

  Your 10 x difference in upload and download speed makes no sense. Which affects both wireless and ethernet. The difference in speed of reading and writing on a NAS is double at most.

  But I do not pretend do you a test, ethernet jack directly to the Buffalo and implemented with the static IP as well as your laptop... and then try it... view results... because if these figures are also very strange, then there is a problem with the buffalo...

  It is very important that you her mount smb in El Capitan... the question is something you need to post in the area of the BONE...
