• Cannot install Windows on MacBook mid 2012 El Capitan 10

  I struggled for a few days to the new installation of Windows 10 on my MacBook Air mid 2012, 13 ". I just upgraded to El Capitan, but my bootcamp still shows the version 5.0.4 (473) when I go to install Windows 10 via USB bootable 64 bit, bootcamp opens with "older versions of Windows are not supported. Please use a Flash DRIVE or a Dvd that contains Windows 7 or later. "I don't know how update bootcamp separately, because the only updated to bootcamp 6 can I download is a .exe, which does not work on my Mac. Is there a way to get around this? Am I missing something? I also saw on other forums where there is a menu actions in bootcamp to download windows drivers, but my bootcamp is not a drop Action. The usb key that I use is a Samsung 32 g (fat32) 3.0 flash drive. Help, please. Thanks for your time :)

  1 is it possible have two installations of Mac OS X or your upgrade is not yet complete. Please check the about this Mac and confirm.

  2 has been upgraded to El Capitan made using the App Store?

  3. you have more than one boot disk for your Mac?

  4. you can always re - run the upgrade of El Capitan, which will be re-install/update the missing files.

  5. What is the name of the .exe file that you can download? What is the source?

  6. If possible, use a USB2 flash drive. USB3 drives can cause problems.

• Looking to upgrade RAM on mid-2012, 13 ".  Need advice!

  Hey guys,.

  I'm looking to upgrade the RAM on my MacBook Pro 8 GB to 16 GB.  I have a MacBook Pro 13-inch, mid-2012 with a 2.9 GHz Intel Core i7.  I was looking for confirmation that this is possible and I was wondering what sticks of RAM I have to buy.

  It's the RAM I think to buy.

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=9SIA6ZP3K32660

  Which resembles the specification of right for the RAM, I'd go personally with Crucial rather than Corsair.

• Internet slow (ping) on Macbook (mid-2012)

  I a mid 2012 macbook pro (non-retine) and recently started having slower speeds of the internet. When you use the Ookla speed test, my ping is generally more than 200 (sometimes as high 700); my download speed is around 3 Mbps, when it is usually around 7. I thought it was the internet connection, but then I checked with an Ipad on the same connection, internet speed was 7mbps (ping was 40). When I try the speedtest on some sites powered by Ookla (like my Qwest or at the & t support site, it won't even run the speed test, saying that there is a latency error, or there is a firewall between my computer and the server).

  What I tried that did not work:

  Turn off the firewall in my security/privacy settings.

  Removing a silverlight program I had downloaded recently play video on a local Web site, so I don't know if that would be a factor.

  Remove the DivX program, based on what I've read in another similar post on the forum.

  * I did not run an uninstall on these programs, but just moved to the trash, then maybe it is needed?

  Change my DNS openDNS numbers numbers. I've since changed my original numbers.

  Any suggestions?

  Also, I tried to plug directly into my DSL cord and without wifi. The same problem.

• Should I upgrade my MacBook Pro 17 "2011 at El Capitan?

  Unfortunately, I was one of those who have upgraded to Yosemite when it came out. It affected my logic board and is part of this recall, apple does a year since last February. All has been well. I was wondering if there was some known issues with one of the users who may have upgraded to El Capitan? Thank you for your response.

  I have a 17 "2011 MBP with El Capitan installed without any reported problems.  I have 16 GB of RAM installed and a Crucial SSD 1 TB.

  Understand that the only time where we MUST install a more recent OSX really is if there are applications that need it.  Other wise, it is an option.  That said, I've read some suggesting that El Capitan might be more effective than Yosemite.  I have no reason to say that.

  Ciao.

  Hi all, updated for the most recent updates earlier, airdrop no longer works. Can confirm that the laptop could see the iphone until both have been updated (but the phone could not see the laptop).

  I tried to delete the plist bluetooth here: / Library/Preferences /-I've seen it mentioned in old messages. He did not contribute if.

  Any other suggestions?

  Fixed it:

  On iphone: go into settings and turn off wifi, bluetooth, and hand
  On the laptop: disable the transfer procedure (found in settings > General), wifi and bluetooth, as well

  Then turn to, on the phone and the laptop and see if it works.

  What I would do is to backup your data on an external drive,

  Restart the mac while holding the ⌘R until the apple logo appears and wait until the boot process is completed. It may take more time to start.

  Once in recovery mode select your preferred language, click on update or reinstall a copy of OS X., select your drive and wait for the process to do. (Also click on continue and accept all that)

  One time did Shutdown and finished reinstall then start in recovery mode again (⌘R) and then click on restore Time Machine backup and then use the backup that you have saved on your external drive. Do you know how to use time machine to back up data in system preferences?

  Best regards

• Slow start after MacBook Pro mid 2012 Kingston XFury 240 GB SSD upgrade

  Hi dude, I would ask why, after I upgraded my MacBook Pro mid 2012 at Kingston XFury 240 GB SSD, my MacBook Pro take more than an hour at the system boot? The purpose of my mac said the SSD (S.M.A.R.T. is checked) and RAM information. I also restart the EL Capitan already.

  Is - this problem is hardware or software?

  Did you properly prepare the new SSD?

  Install OS X using the recovery network

  Make sure that you have backed up your files because the following procedure will remove all of the hard drive.

  Start on the recovery of the network server:

  Restart the computer after the ring, press in and hold the COMMAND + OPTION + R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15 - 20 minutes - until the main recovery menu appears.

  Partition and format the hard disk:

  1. Select in the main menu disk utility and click on the continue button.
  2. After load of THE select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entrance Out-dented with the mfgr.) ID and size) in the list on the left. Click the Partition tab in the main window of THE.
  3. Under the scheme of titled Volume set the number of partitions in the menu drop-down one. Click the Options button, set the GUID partition scheme, and then click the OK button. Set the type of Mac OS extended (journaled) format. Click on the apply button and wait until the process is complete. To leave and return to the main menu.

  Reinstall OS X: Select reinstall OS X and click on the continue button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.

  Note : You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest to use Ethernet if possible because it's three times faster than wireless.

  This should restore the version of OS X, originally installed on the computer.

Are there steps of preparation I need to do before you download and upgrade to Sierra.  Can you please advise me please?

  N ° so you have a backup if something goes wrong you can return to Yosemite.

  Only concern is that some devices, including USB that may require the updated drivers, but these records are not always available
