• Very slow startup MacBook Pro

  Early 2011 MacBook Pro 8.2-2.3 GHz, Intel Core i7 X10.9.5 of OS running

  Starting last very long. Spinning last icon for about 10 minutes then the Apple icon is anther 10 minutes or more. Everything from here looks very good, but it makes me nervous. Had he listens to the store in 2014 to right before he went out of warranty. Utility ran and fixed all the permissions.

• Startup MacBook freezes, sluggish performance after the execution of El Capitan

  I noticed a major slowdown everywhere on my Macbook Pro 15 mid-2009 "about these last months. I upgraded my OS ago a few months to a years-old version and the problem of timing applications and also crashes weird startup rose with my El Capitan running. I am now on version 10.11.4. Reboots take often hours or a whole day and/or night to fully complete. Then later, no apps are running smoothly and I have many, many balls of rotation range. BTW, I mainly use programs such as Word, Safari and Mail. As suggested on other threads, I downloaded EtreCheck and I posted the results below, in the hope of an overview and suggestions. It seems that I have perhaps also some hardware issues, but I don't really know how to cope. Utility disk first aid says that my HD seems OK. I also tried to clear all caches, I can think. Grateful for the advice! Thank you!

• Startup MacBook Pro-comment problems prevent health going to disk/check once again

  My 13 inch Macbook Pro running OSX 10.9.5 (said mid-2012, but it was purchased in fall 2014) has had problems starting

  A few weeks ago the computer is stuck on the loading screen (white, with the Apple and the buffering of spinning icon) without marketing properly. After you have manually turned off and left for a long time he worked well on the next test, so I took care of it has been saved and so didn't think much, and it works pretty well in recent weeks, sometimes being a little slow but that very occasionally and not debilitatingly so and it probably is not related to this problem.

  This morning it was still once stuck on the loading screen, and try again in 5 or 6 times solves nothing. The VRAM reset did not help either. After an attempt to boot into safe mode (filled a little progress bar then disappeared and the computer continued to buffer without purpose), I once again reset the NVRAM and tried a different boot safe mode, with the same results. But this time I left it half an hour or so and on the next attempt (start normally) it miraculously worked a new and everything seems functional. After a new backup with a preparation period slightly extended backup (at least half an hour on the first abandoned attempt, then at least 15 minutes, until correct on the second trial has started), although it is common on my computer, I have enough fear turn the computer off and tempt fate again, if I want to see what can be done now.

  What should I do to check the health of the disk, potentially fix it, find out why this is happening and avoid this problem again in the future?

  I decided to watch from the disk utility and am confused by the Setup program. There is an 'APPLE HDD Media HTS541010A9E662' entry in the list, with a "MacIntoshHD" paragraph below, and both have different information displayed... I ran check disk on the higher level entry and it seems to be out very well ("the Volume Recovery HD seems to be OK"), but I haven't run one on the low level input as it says my computer may be "slow and unresponsive" while doing so, and I'm not entirely sure of what use there.

  It cannot be storage associated with as I stil have 610 gb of free 1 terra (although a large part of what I have (130 GB) is in the other category for a reason any).

Generally, the experienced users erasing the hard drive and do a clean install from scratch at least once a year or every time that the installation of a major upgrade of the OS. Well sure doing so also means that you need to maintain regular and several backups.

• The song disappear from iTunes on my MacBook.

  I have a song that shows as being in my library on my MacBook, but it is not. Some time ago I downloaded and then deleted. It disappeared from all my other devices but still present in iTunes on my MacBook. When I try to delete nothing happens, when I try to play nothing happens. When I opened the box of info song that States that it is always stored in iCloud, but it does not appear on any of my other peripheral iCloud library or is available from me to re-download cloud icon there.

  I tried to restart my MacBook & iTunes and also tried to turn my library iCloud off & back on, even running that a repair on my drive does not resolve the issue.

  Anyone got any ideas on how to solve this problem?

  Hi rangers29,

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. Based on what you said, it seems that there is a song that is just listed in iTunes and does not react to reading or deleting.

  One thing that can cause this is wrong with the iTunes library file. We can try to restore the file and see if the library updates and removes the song in the list because it is not downloaded.

• iPod Classic does not appear in iTunes

  My macbook release 10.9.5. iTunes (version 12.1) does not recognize my iPod classic Model # MB147LL version 1.2.2PC. I tried to reboot, reset, update, but it will not recognize to sync the iPod. My computer recognizes the iPod but not iTunes.

  The latest version of iTunes (12.5.1) should work on OS X 10.9.5.  Is there a reason that you are using an older version of iTunes.  A classic iPod should work with even older versions of iTunes, but there may be a problem with the specific version you have (fixed in a later version).

  If update does not help (or if you don't want to update iTunes), given that the iPod is recognized by the system, it seems to have a data connection.  Try to put the iPod in Disk Mode.

  How to put your iPod in disc - Apple Support mode

  Before you connect iPod, stop (power off) MacBook and disconnect all the USB devices.  Plug the MacBook power adapter (so it does not work on battery).  Startup MacBook, launch iTunes and connect the iPod (in disc Mode) on a USB direct on MacBook, by himself.

  If he picks up iTunes, it should invite you to do a restore with a message on the "recovery."  This erases the iPod, so if you're OK with that (because the content of the iPod is in your iTunes library), do the restore.  If all goes well, the iPod appears in iTunes (normally) after the restoration.

• How can I restore backup iTunes library?

  I have a Macbook Pro that I just reimagee with Yosemite.  I copied the folder iTunes backup to the new image (60 GB) but the only thing that sees iTunes's songs, movies, etc. that I bought on the iTunes store.  What should I do to restore my entire library and playlists?

  Did you put it back exactly in the same place with the default name?  If this isn't the case, hold down the option/ALT key at startup of iTunes and select the .itl file in the iTunes folder.

• Incomplete import of music in iTunes

  I just finished all my my CD library import music to iTunes 12.3.2 64-bit on my Macbook Pro.  The whole process takes about three days. I was very pleased when he did. all imported and was organized by the artist and the title of the album.

  Now for the problem...

  I have a few music files in a folder that come from sources other than the CD. They are in the WMA format, and I can click on them and play without any problems.  However, when I try to add them to iTunes, nothing happens. I know this isn't the WMA format as other media that I imported is transformed without problem.

  I read the other posts on this issue and tried the solutions without success. I thought that the problem could be the source of music (download torrent), but only some of these files are not importing, not all.

  Why only some of these files can be imported into iTunes?  I have "add to iTunes library checked in preferences and tried to"Refresh"the library after manually move the folder with the music in question to the iTunes library manually by pressing the OPTION DOWN during the startup of iTunes without success."

  Thank you in advance.

  I don't know why one of your WMA files are important. iTunes for Mac will play all files in the WMA format. iTunes for Windows will work. iTunes for Windows can also convert Mac playback formats but iTunes for Mac cannot. No Apple software it won't play unless you have Flip4Mac installed (you don't say do you) and then it will play in Quicktime Player. Flip4Mac only converts it to an iTunes for Mac playable format if you have the version special payware. Third-party software (such as VLC) may play, but you make no mention of this.  So far none of this makes sense to me.

• AirPlay won't work with macbook

  Since update done (iOS 10, OSX 10.9.5) to my macbook and apple tv for some reason, I can't connect my macbook pro to apple tv.

  When I try to connect I get a message on the TV: requirements for the instruments, this antenna connection requires IOS 7.1 or later OS X 10.10 or later or iTunes 11.2 or later version.

  My macbook iTunes and apple tv are up-to-date.

  Also when I connect my iPhone 6 and 6 s his works very well.

  I went to tv settings apple, airplay, require verification of device and its tours but macbook doesn't always connect!

  Any advice or a fix for this problem?

  First of all, try to disable the check of the aircraft. Just block hackers (stoodents) on your WiFi. Then check the points here use AirPlay to display video from your Mac to a TV high definition - Apple Support, especially Mac Firewall settings. An update may have reset your security.

• moving a hard drive to a new Mac disorder by iTunes?

  Hello

  My 2006 Macbook seems to have definitively failed.

  Reflection on the installation of its drive system in a Mac Pro as an additional player.

  Both are old, under Snow Leopard.

  Both have installed itunes, and both computers are allowed with my itunes account.

  What I wonder about is the following: after putting the drive in the Mac Pro Macbook, when I run iTunes hd from Macbook, iTunes will be be messed up due to the change?

  See you soon!

  Take a look to make a library of portable split. As long as your library is in standard form, you should be able to start-option-iTunes and connect to the folder library in some way is convenient. I suggest you usually move the iTunes folder to the root of the drive if it will not be found in the normal position of the user's music.

• IPod Classic does not recognize Itunes library after updating 12.4.1.6

  After (sigh, unconsciously and unintentionally) update my Itunes 12.4.1.6 Macbook Pro, my Ipod Classic is as it does not recognize the Itunes Macbook is the parent library. I made a few additions to the Macbook Itunes playlists, but my Ipod sync... at least do not unintentionally erase all currents (gulp, 157 GB of data) and re-import the entire library again. Is there a way to get around this? I did have this problem - at least I don't remember having it-advance updates to Itunes, where the Ipod no longer recognizes the Itunes Macbook as his home library. I ran a "check disk" on the Macbook and Ipod, and they are both clean, no sign of corruption. FWIW, I use the laptop on Mavericks, OSX 10.9.5.

  Did you have to add your media to the library after the update? See the empty/corrupted after upgrade/crash iTunes library.

• Restoration of music iTunes &amp; playlists from Time Machine

  For some unexplained reason, iTunes decided to forget all my music and lists reading, although nothing had been knowingly changed. As much as iTunes is concerned, I don't have music and playlists.

  I see all the music is still on my hard drive, so import again would be probably to load my music into iTunes, but I have a number of large playlists that I also want to preserve.  I thought that it is better to ask advice before rushing in and possibly make things worse.

  My hard drive is backed up with Time Machine daily. What is the best way to return to how it was using TM?  What files should be restored?

  Try to hold down the option/ALT key at startup of iTunes and select the iTunes Library.itl file in the iTunes folder. If it's not search with spotlight.

  If necessary:

• Difference in storage iPhone shows iTunes and iPhone control

  Hey everybody,

  Just a quick question. When I connect my iPhone, I noticed that there is a difference between the available storage space in iTunes and my iPhone settings. To clarify, when the iPhone is connected to my MacBook, iTunes States that the available storage space is 26 GB, but my iPhone displays in the settings menu that there are only 12 GB available.

  In addition, I have seen what is happening before on my previous iPhone as well as on my iPad.

  Any ideas on why this is happening? And which one is the most accurate assessment?

  Kind regards
