SSD install on macbook pro w / el capitan
Please tell me if I am on the right track. I bought an ssd 2.5 inch bx200 crucial. I formatted it and then with Time Machine, I backed up my existing on the SSD hard drive. Is it safe to say, all I have to do now is to turn off the computer, remove the existing hard drive, install SSD, go back and turn on computer? I feel as if I could be missing something. Thank you
This is probably the correct process. What MacBook Pro you have? It seems that an adapter of 9.5 mm (supplied) is necessary to install this drive at least some of the MacBook Pro.

Installation SSD Samsung 850 EVO on 13 in Macbook Pro with El Capitan
I bought a Samsung SSD 850 EVO solid state drive and installing the end 2011 girl 13 "Macbook Pro running El Capitan. Before the installation, the drive was formatted by disk utility and then cloned with the CCC. The reader will not be able to boot up the laptop and and when selected as the boot disk I get the following: bless tool was unable to put the current startup disk. There are several 'solutions' on YouTube, but they have not quite caught up El Capitan. I tried to go back and formatting the drive with Snow Leopard then coming forward, but that doesn't work anymore. It was the idea of "geniuses" at the local Apple Store. Any thoughts?

2010 MacBook Pro with El Capitan will not run Apple hardware Tests
I have a MacBook Pro with El Capitan 2010 installed (10.11.1). He gave me refresh issues such as refresh very slow on the desktop and in the three different browsers, which eventually would crash when I tried to run the videos. I have reset the PRAM. Then ran first aid and received a message ' Mac HD corrupted and needs to be repaired. Tried to run first aid Mode safe, so I started it as such and first aid, then ran with an OK message. Then I tried to run Apple Hardware Test online with D at the start but he would go directly to the grey screen with Apple and would not be executed that the AHT even through I've tried several times. I have not seen anyone with this problem. Any ideas?
The Apple Hardware test is the second of your original version of records. If you have not taken care of for transfer to a hidden location on your drive, it will be available from these disks. Your Mac is probably too old to get it automatically from the Internet.

While Adobe says his record the FIRST 9.3 update plug-in for Adobe Photoshop CS6 (Extended) strives to convert directly from the RXRII of Sony camera RAW files, is not. Maybe my MacBook Pro OSX El Capitan 10.11.5 exceeds the 10.11 noticed on the Adobe Camera Raw graph?
Please notify.
CS6 can only be updated up to a maximum of ACR 9.1.1 to install cab 9.3 in CS6, attempts fail. You can check which version you have by any plug-in / Camera Raw (I think on a Mac).
You can register CC (LR+PS@$120/yr=$10/mo is the least expensive) or use the DNG Converter to DNG for raw files and the DNG, but not the native raws, open in your older software.

How much will cost to fix the SSD on a MacBook Pro 13 of retina?
Recently the SSD on my MacBook Pro of retina starts to die since I move 350mpbs writing and reading 500mbps. I think to replace the SSD it myself but I don't know where to find relevant and I don't know M.2 SSD since they come in different fittings etc... I missed the guarantee of 2 weeks! I'm in the United Kingdom, btw. Thank you.
Go to the Genius Bar. SSD form factor resembles mSATA and M2, but the interface is not one of the "common" protocols
