SSD hard drive for a 2011 mac book pro

Suggestions welcomed, I am looking to buy an SSD for my mac book pro 2011.  Are there compatibility issues with an internal 2.5 inch SSD?

I would start by checking the web site OWC macsales.com. They are good to discuss the problems with specific models.

  • Who is the best SSD 500GBs in an early 2011 Mac Book Pro?

    I just updated my RAM to 4GBs to 16GBs in May 2011 beginning 15 "MacBook Pro, now I'm looking to upgrade my computer with an SSD. I'm looking for some 500GBs because 1 TB is too expensive for me right now. Any suggestions?

    Thank you very much!

    The only thing I can say, is that the only true upgrade in today's world is a Solid State Drive. Now you can go to Crucial.com and get a 480 GB ssd for 139.99 or a 500 GB for about 159.99 about. A regular HARD drive could cost you half, but it's so worth the extra mulah.

  • By the end of 2011 Mac Book pro 15 inch battery indicating zero

    I have a 2011 Mac Book Pro (end) retina which really is not used as a laptop display. (always connected)

    Just today, he showed zero percentage battery icon.

    I have reset the SMC and that did not help

    Should I try to disconnect the battery to see if it would help

    Is the battery shot just like that?

    Thanks for the help

    In addition, if the battery needs to be replaced can I do it myself?

    Hello

    The battery may be necessary replacement.

    Check the number of maximum cycle. Instructions here > Determining battery cycle count for Mac notebooks

    http://www.Apple.com/batteries/service-and-recycling/

    You can replace the battery yourself > https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/MacBook+Pro+15-Inch+Unibody+Late+2011+Battery+Repla cement/7511

    But if you have never done this before, I recommend you take your Mac to an Apple Store. You can make a reservation in advance at a Genius Bar.

  • Version CS4 for my new Mac Book Pro

    My lap top is dead so I bought a Mac Book knowing CS$ would run on the Apple.  I paid for the license Botr have only the version of Windows. Help?

    Unfortunately, you may need to buy a newer version.  in the past, you could only trade platforms for new versions of packages such as the Creative Suites.  I don't know how it works now the creative cloud is the new kid on the block.  They still sell CS6 versions but it is perhaps the last CS, and more bad news is that CS4 is no longer eligible for the CS6 upgrade since last January.

  • Can I run After Effects with 2.4 GHZ Quad Core i7 Processor, 16 GB of RAM and a new SSD hard drive?

    I have a 2011 Mac Book Pro with 8 GB of RAM and The RAM Preview plays in 10 second Incraments. I want to pull out my hair! I don't have the sum of $ to buy a new computer. If I switch to 16 GB of RAM and get a new drive SSD will work After Effects, or I lose my $$. Please help, I have a very important project. It is about 12 minutes long and I need to add a lot of sequelae to complete my project

    First of all, you have optimized your system: Optimizing after effects of performance - Support Adobe

    Second, it looks like you are fairly new to AE and that your workflow is not very effective. Here's the deal. After effects is not an editing application, it is a graphics and compositing designed app to create shots or short sequences. In addition, I would say that more than 90% of my AE projects are less than 10 seconds, because I created shots (with handles - extra images) I'll change in the body or some other NLE. Some of these comps second 10 have a hundred layers or more. If I had to do 12 minutes into a movie I would fuck the cut first in Premiere Pro to understand what was the best way to tell the story, then each shot than necessary effects would become a separate AE comp. At the very least each scene must be a model. In most of the stories that are told, as a film, a scene are only a minute or two. The average is probably less than 6 seconds. I can't imagine putting together 12 minutes in a single model AE, not because I couldn't, but because I would probably change the "timing" of some of the cuts, edit audio or make some other change before I made and changes in the middle of a project of 12 minutes would be a nightmare.

    Here's how a work on almost all editing projects.

    • First installation in a NLE such as Premiere Pro until the story is logical
    • Put the shots in AE requiring animation or effects
    • Inside AE, I first make a test pencil to check the overview and animation timings with the Panel of the model to 50% or even 25%, and automatic resolution scheduled to ensure that the timing is ok
    • Effects are added and critical frames are checked 100% for color and everything else but I rarely to ram preview several frames because I'm already happy with the calendar
    • The model is sent to the SOUL (Media Encoder) or sometimes the cue to render to render in a production format appropriate (usually 10-bit or better, often a sequence of images)
    • If the model is sent to the SOUL I continue to work on the next shot until I finished all the effects work
    • The effects of rendering images are reduced in the NLE to replace shots in the rough cut and editing is polite
    • The project is then added to the hearing for the final mix
    • The final color ranking is made - usually in the category of speed or resolution
    • The final product is made to a production for archiving format and a format of distribution (usually h.264 mp4)

    There are a lot of bounce back, but it's the most effective way to work on any project. Have you noticed that an overview of full resolution RAM full length does not at any time?

    If installation requires only a few short shots or sequences to AE, I will occasionally use Dynamic Link, but most of the time all the effects work is made. It just makes it much more efficient.

    I hope this helps.

  • Mac Book Pro El Capitan won't start

    End of 2011 Mac Book Pro with OS X 10.11.2 and 500 GB SSD locked when you change an image in Lightroom 6.  Display got lines in there, then moved to the right until all the images in all programs were packaging off the screen on the left and ending on the right.  I decided to quit Lightroom and it went in her check and the safeguard of this app.  At this point the computer locked up completely with the beachball forever.  I stopped with the start key and restarted.  Desktop came, but then locked up again.  No restart in any mode after that.  Computer goes the logo Apple on a white screen with the high CPU activity as evidenced by a cooling fan screaming.

    I have a backup recovery app on a USB key, but does not know how to use it. I also still have the original hard drive that could possibly be re-installed, but he showed signs of early failure.

    Can anyone help?

  • U2414H, Mac Book Pro, DisplayPort 1.2 empty, solved

    I'm posting here in the hope that it gets indexed by search engines and other people can find the answer that I spent a few hours searching without luck.  At first, I must say that I am generally very pleased with this monitor - like bezel-thin, very good quality picture, easy to set up and a great price. However, most of this post is going to be a complaint and attention to others. told me, incorrectly, that my early 2011 Mac Book Pro 15 "mini-DisplayPort taken in charge the DisplayPort 1.2 Protocol. It turns out only. Then when I activated the DisplayPort 1.2 screen turned white, as the instructions said he could. No biggie, you would think - just get on-screen display (OSD) to the top again and disable DisplayPort 1.2 or do a factory reset. Here, you can't get the OSD until a source is connected correctly to the screen. Which means that you can not disable DisplayPort 1.2 or do a factory reset, you want to do because you cannot successfully connect to the screen, until properly connect a device to the screen. And so on and so forth.

    There is no other way to do a factory reset, so the only way for me to reset the monitor that is to go buy a mini-DisplayPort-HDMI cable in order to connect to the monitor in this way and do a factory reset. I confirmed this with a call to Dell technical support, too. I don't quite see how thought happened during the design of the firmware. How do you design a monitor where the only way to do a factory reset is when a device is connected correctly? A major flaw, but it will apply only if you don't know this in advance, where this post.

    It also would have been clearer if the warning had said "this can make your blank screen which, until you have another cable to connect via HDMI, means that you have essentially an expensive piece of plastic."

    Follow these steps to disable the DP1.2 on the U2414H WITHOUT signal input

    When you press the Menu button, the buttons are then =

    * Turn off the monitor
    Unplug all the video inputs of the U2414H wiring

    * Press the button OK check (3rd left) and hold FOR 15 seconds
