Problem loading aluminum MacBook

I have an old MacBook aluminum (Late 2008) I've recently returned to service. It was just a machine I would use sometimes when I was too lazy to break my work MacBook Pro. It had been for months without any problem under Snow Leopard (10.6.8) when I decided I wanted it to be less painful to use.

I opted for the level to El Capitan (it runs 10.11.4), then installed a full clean of El Capitan (Nothing in here I had no elsewhere). Everything went super smooth. I use the machine for a few weeks and just recently ran into problems with the load.

Symptoms:

The indicator on the side of the body flashes final light when you press. The operating system reported 99% charge and recharge. The power adapter is orange. It remains like this indefinitely until I take action.

Temporary workaround solution:

If I use the machine and drain the battery less than about 70%, hook up, close the lid and leave her be she will hit "99%" and the led turns green. However, if I unplug for a reason, and she goes to the battery, next time I plug her unless I have greatly drained the battery it will load indefinitely.

Troubleshooting to date:

I did a reset SMC and the workaround mentioned above. I was unable to perform a test of start-up equipment; I think I need the original Leopard install CD and I'm not even sure that I have at this point. Can I get a copy of Snow Leopard, lying around but if I really need.

Other info:

I'm sure that the battery has bad cells; It points to about 20 - 30% charge (hard death). A few years ago, she was dying to 89%; the Apple Store has determined the battery was dead cells and had to be replaced. I replaced the battery with a genuine Apple replacement provided by Genius Bar. I currently have no spare hardware in the machine (while I was playing with the idea of launching a Crucial SSD in there, so I can solve this problem of load).

Thank you.

    Is there a usb2 cable available magsafe2 to load a MacBook Pro w/Retina Display?

    No, and there is not enough power in a USB port no matter what to a MacBook Pro.

    Office supplies USB up to 0.5 Amps of power at 5 Volts. Which allows to load an iPhone.

    The smallest power supply for a 13 "MacBook Pro 15" requires more 3.6 amps to about 16.5 Volts. The 15 "attracts a lot more.

    The server to smile.amazon.com takes too long to respond.

       The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.

    I cannot access these pages in IE - just FF - and immediately after that I installed FF 32.0.2

    I have tried to reboot and same reinstall - but can't access anything on FF.

    Hello, normally these problems are caused by a security/firewall software which does not recognize and therefore blocks the new versions of firefox. If please delete all the rules of the program for firefox to your firewall and let it detect the new version of the browser again.

  • Problem loading Google not caused by cookies or malware. Reinstalling Firefox did not help. What should I do now?

    I followed the instructions, treated with cookies, Norton and do not think I have malware and I still get the message there is a problem loading page when I try to access Google or Google mail. I find that Firefox is superior to IE. What can I do?

    Make sure that Norton is not blocking content.

    See:

    Reload Web pages and ignore the cache to refresh potentially stale or corrupt.

    • Hold SHIFT and click reload.
    • Press 'Ctrl + F5' or 'Ctrl + Shift + R' (Windows, Linux)
    • Press 'Command + shift + R' (MAC)

    Clear the cache and cookies from sites that cause problems.

    "Clear the Cache":

    • Tools > Options > advanced > network > content caching Web: 'clear now '.

    'Delete Cookies' sites causing problems:

    • Tools > Options > privacy > Cookies: "show the Cookies".

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance/themes).

    Howdy Yaser of zoysia,

    It seems that your screen displays some graphical anomalies when you connect to your user name. I would use these troubleshooting steps in the following article on the resolution of screens:

    Restart your Mac in safe mode to reset the default display resolution.

    If booting safe mode doesn't resolve the problem, reset your Mac NVRAM and SMC to reset the video ports on your Mac to their default values.

    From: get help with graphics issues on external displays connected to your Mac.

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  • Often is problem loading page - saying because cookies can be disabled

    Acer Aspire 7551-7422 Windows 7 Home Premium, FireFox 6.0
    I frequently get a problem loading page messages which provide that it is sometimes caused by disabling or refusing cookies. I have all the cookies allowed in FireFox options, I often delete cookies also. What else could be the problem? FireFox is permitted through my wall of fire.

    Are there Web sites listed in the window of Exception of Cookie?

    • Tools > Options > privacy > Cookies: "Exceptions."

    If it is was then delete them all unless you added them yourself for a specific reason.

    Generally, there is no need to block cookies outside disabling third party cookies.

  • Error "problem loading page" AskMen bf6. Page does not load upward.

    The site Askmen load in FF6. The page load to "problem loading page" page FF.

    At the same time, the url also changes http://uk.wrapper.askmen.com/

    No problem here.

    Try mode without failure of Firefox.

    A way of solving problems, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    1. You can open the Firefox 4, 5, 6, 7 SafeMode pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    2. Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox (without the Shift key) to open it again.

    If it's good in Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.

    Opening the causes of Firefox open a second tab down to make it appear that reads "problem loading page"... the pages I want to see on all sites, well, I just get an annoying extra tab with this message... If I click on this tab, a small window appears in the upper left corner of the screen that contains the error message. I use FF 3.6. This just started happening recently... maybe after my upgrade of las FF.

    Make a check of malware with a few programs to scan for malware.

    You must use all of the programs, because each detect different malware.

    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database prior to scanning.

  • Having problems loading google

    Its been a week or two that I started to have issues loading youtube. Later, I started having problems loading google as well. Its very annoying and I don't know what is happening since no changes were made on the system.  Its touching all my apple products connected to my wifi.

    I removed the cache, history, cookies and tried different browsers and nothing suits him.

    Yesterday, I actually changed my DNS servers and it fixed it momentarily, but now its still doesn't work.

    Any of you have an idea on how to solve the problem?

    It does not google, gmail etc. But he has no problem loading what anyone else. The message also said the following:

    Sara can't open the page "www.google.com" because he has a server that hosts this page does not.
