Have you tried booting in Safe Mode? If you can start check safe mode to see if the problems you described have stopped. If they are stopped, and then restart the computer normally. What happens then?

Change of keyboard USB external Apple connected to the Macbook Pro
Dear ladies and gentlemen,
I need your help. I have a MacBook Pro running the last Sierra 17 "MacOS. I bought a 27 "Thunderbolt display and wanted to use a full external keyboard USB Apple (with the help of the digital keys). I have connected to the screen "USB port, closed down the internal screen MacBook... magic happened... keyboard poped office to the top of the screen external AND external full resolution was working properly..." Unfortunately only for 1-2 minutes, then the layout changed back irreversible in a layout resembling the layout if I would press "alt". Only way I could "resolve" to disconnect the keyboard USB plug and then plug again... but after 1-2 minutes did the same thing...
I tried to plug the USB plug into the MacBook Pro directly, but the same thing happened...
I am so unhappy that I can't use correctly the full length external Apple keyboard, large... Any hint/resolution?
Thank you for your help in advance,
Péter
System Preferences > keyboard > Input Sources > [√] see Input menu in the menu bar
... then the menu icon before, choose «Show Keyboard Viewer»
Now, look at the chart of the keyboard that appears on the screen. If the Alt/Option key is stuck, the key will be gray, as if it is held down. If you press it again, he himself is not?

I have the macbook pro (OS 10.6.8) and the iphone 6 s. The latest version of iTunes is 11.4. How to synchronize or import/export files(images/music)? Fact is need to update itunes? Also you can sync ipod touch?
iOS9 on a mobile device requires iTunes 12.3 or higher, which in turn requires a computer running OSX 10.8.5 or higher. Update of the system only checks the updates for the current version of the system you run, but that itself can be updated. It may or may not be possible to upgrade your computer to the system requirements. Find your computer on the web site of http://www.everymac.com model and near the bottom of the specification of the system section, he will tell what versions of the operating system, it is able to run. If you can not run a newer system, you will not be able to sync this phone to your current computer. If she can run 10.8.5 or higher, you can either buy a download for Apple OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion code online, or you can try to install the free El Capitan OSX 10.11. El Capitan can run slower on older machines and require the additional purchase of RAM. Making a big jump in versions of system is also more likely to affect the old software.
At el capitan Snow Leopard, it will make my macbook is slow? - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7412959

U3415 sharing the macbook pro and PC
Hi all
recently purchased the rather excellent U3415 and I'll put up my installation of small music at home.
On my desk, I have my macbook pro and my pc. I want to be able to do is to use a keyboard and mouse for both systems. I can do this with the U3415? I am using a USB hub that is connected to the macbook pro (I have about 7 usb for music devices), but I was wondering if I could connect the USB keyboard and a mouse on the screen then somehow use just the mouse and the keyboard. I read the U3415 has a great feature KVM USB upstream and wasn't sure if it was the same thing. I know I can plug in Display HDMI port AND so move from pc/mac is easy for the side of the display of things.
OK nm, received a schema, the all clear.

El Capital is compatible with the MacBook Pro version 10.10.5? Can anyone help answer this question before I update? Thanks in advance.
Why did you start a new post? Post again only after only 8 minutes accomplished nothing.
There is no general problem going to EL Capitan on your Mac.
Some applications may require updating.
Some devices like printer may require the updated drivers. For some readers of devices not being updated are available.
This is the Office Mac Pro forum. I asked that your post be moved to the El Capitanforum or another appropriate forum.
Please move to the EL Capitan forum or another appropriate forum. Thank you

PowerMac Pro doesn't recognize the MacBook Pro in target disk mode
I'm trying to restore a disk from MacBook Pro from a backup, but my PowerMac Pro does not seem to recognize the MacBook Pro in target disk mode. I have a FireWire 800 cable and adapter to the thunderbolt FireWire 800 port. Is there something more I should do to get the Mac Pro power to recognize the MacBook Pro in disc mode target like an external hard drive?
There is no "Power Mac Pro;" are you referring to a Power Mac (which would be less than 11 years), or a Mac Pro? You try to migrate data from the MacBook Pro to another Mac, or vice versa?

The Macbook Pro 13 "is good for making movies
Hi all
I would like to know wheter or not the MacBook Pro 13 "is strong enoughfor film making, I want to use movie making applications and all... I aspire to edit videos short and simple I will upload later on social media. I saw the presentation of the MacBook Pro on the Apple site and I noticed that when talking about the film to do things, they only mention the 15 "... and I had a few doubght.
To say, I want to buy the MacBook Pro 13 "retina, i7, 16 GB, ssd 550 with a 256 GB of storage.
Thank you for your help.
It depends on this kind of filmmaking. Model 15-inch more expensive is the only one with an independent graphics card and will be able to manage better than all other models rendering tasks. If your movie is CGI intensive, you can consider the 15-inch model. If your film is essentially practical, 13 inches could possibly do with simplest post-editing and CGI, but may take longer. If you make a great movie, you can also consider a larger storage capacity as videos tend to take place. View a comparison of the two products on the Apple website here.

What is the macbook pro last?
Hello, I am a student and I bought my first Macbook Pro 3 weeks.
I love it and was not able to get my hands on it since!
So today when I came home and was about to check my e-mail, it happened suddenly empty!
Black! I tried to reboot several times with different combinations, but not of chance that he will not go beyond the login screen.
I got help from Apple and could activate in Safeboot but always lights in normal mode.
I'm really upset because I was SO careful with her. He did not leave my room, I have same press as light as possible and put my mousepad touch click so I don't have to support as much...
As I said though, I used it a lot, a lot of videos, making notes, websites, etc. etc. I don't turn a lot of nights and close the form.
Y at - it advice or habits that I could make to my macbook it's bad for her?
And how much time the macbook pro durent usually? I have 13 inch Retina display with mid-range ram and processor, so it was not the cheapest, it was one of the more expensive down 13 inches.
I'm so afraid now because I'm a student and the death of my macbook on me in the future near or frequently (I only had it for 3 weeks) he's going to make things really difficult. So according to the pleading of your experience, I hope to upgrade to Apple Care or what not. They give you a replacement if it should be fixed?
I was hoping that it will last at least 5 years, would be a great expectation?
Thanks in advance for your advice!
It's just a mistake software, Terminal at all. So we know what you have in running which is the cause and for this we need a report. Download Etrecheck, run the report and post it here, you can do in Mode safe
