  What can I do?

  You can only update if you have a version of the AppStore of Aperture - if your version of Aperture appears in the history of your purchases on the App Store. Update and then reinstalling.   See this tip of the user for more details:

• put the old macbook pro hard drive in the new macbook pro

  so I have a MacBook Pro with a port of moniter fried on the motherboard and the battery started to swell physically so I removed the drive HARD and RAM end of 2009. So here's my question; Now, I received recently a late 2010 MacBook Pro with a smaller HARD drive if I put my 500 GB HDD from my old computer and now I wonder why it does not start even if it's a MacBook Pro registered, formatted and updated HARD drive already?

  Does not work like that. The OS X is for the Mac that you pulled. Bus information processor and the room and everything. Buy an external USB box and put the old hard drive in it. You will be able to recover your personal data and you can delete it, format and use it for external storage.

  You cannot shoot a hard drive with OS X work and put it in any Mac. Once installed, OS X belongs to the Mac, it was planned to organize. Any OS that way, is not just Mac.

  Bravo!

• By upgrading to a new operating system, they asked me for my password, but there is no place to enter.

  On the screen of the 3rd or 4th, after agreeing the rules, a screen who asked my access code with a box that says keep.  There is no place not to enter my code, click on continue.  When I click on continue nothing happens, but in the bar to download at the top of the screen, the message "enter code 'IPhone of Thomas' access.  But there is no place on the page to enter the code.  So, I can't get the update.

  You must enter the access code to the phone.

• Trackpad a response on the old macbook pro 10.11.4 delayed

  Recently installed 10.11.4 on a MBP, 2008.
  And now the trackpad occasionally stops responding for a few seconds.

  as a gel, before returning.

  Maybe he thinks that El Capitan with not enough ram?

  No matter who else knows about this and all the patches?

  Thank you...

  After a new installation, more 350 000 files of Mac OS X may have changed. It will take a few hours before Spotlight and its subtask, mdworker re-indexing are finished and your Mac should be more responsive.

  4 GB is supposed to be enough for ordinary under ElCapitan. But more than 4 GB can often exploit more adapted.

  For the advanced work such as Photo, video, sound, CAD or simulations, more 4 GB would be certainly necessary for good performance.

• How to transfer the old macbook pro iPhoto library

  I got a new Macbook and wanted to transfer my photos from my old computer in a fairly simple manner. Thank you

  You could try & use migrate manually move (copy) data from one Mac to another...

  Not all the elements of an older Mac or its OS X should be moved into a new. Be wary.

  moved to the folder of Photos, and if it is not recognized, a link to info on what to do.

  Remember to make backups and separate archives for your computers so that they does not work

  This is a source of information that can be useful beyond the investigation of libraries of photos.

• I upgraded my computer, the new operating system on a new hard drive. Want to get my favorites on Firefox off my old drive, but can't find the file.

  I upgraded my computer, adding a second hard disk for a new operating system and kept the old drive as a data disc. I assumed that I could install Firefox on the new disk and import my favorites from the old installation of Mozilla on the old disk. I can't find the files on the old drive with my favorites. They're still here, or when I reinstalled Firefox, I lost everything even if it was on another drive? I can't find the backup on the old disk files and want to restore my old favorites. Is it possible to do this?

  You must find your profile folder in the old drive, the way in which must be:

  1. First display the hidden files and folders:
     • http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Wi.../Show-hidden-files
  2. Then go to:
     • < old drive >: \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles \Users\ < username >
  3. Enter in your profile, and then enter the folder bookmarkbackups .
  4. Copy the latest file from json (backup of bookmarks)
  5. Then restore from them:
     • Restore backup bookmarks or move them to another computer

• had to install the new operating system and bookmarks are gone

  Hiya. I had problems with the computer and the fix was to install a new operating system (windows 7 it was old, windows 8 is the new). Most of my old files make the switch, but when I downloaded firefox, my favorites have disappeared. I looked in my profile in the menu, but it's the profile that I created today by downloading firefox. Where can I find my old profile? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you, Billy

  Was this an upgrade of type "on the spot" where your user folder

  C:\Users\youroldusername\
  

  was intact, or did you end up with a new user folder? In the case of a new user folder, you will find a folder named

  C:\Windows.old\Users\youroldusername\
  

  If so, your Firefox data are probably here - and here's how I suggest to access:

  First of all, it would be useful to set windows to display the hidden files and folders. This article has the steps: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hidden-files

  Then click in:

  Username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles C:\Windows.old\Users\

  Note: there is a cache under AppData\Local folder, but everything important is under AppData\Roaming.

  Here you can find one or several folders named random semi. Who has most recently updated content is probably one you want to restore.

  This post has my suggested procedure to resurrect these data in your new installation of Firefox. Please note the use of the copy instead of move throughout the process. This allows you to try again if it fails somewhere along the way.

  https://support.Mozilla.org/questions/1024189#answer-638319

  A little luck?

  Note that if you really ONLY want to bookmark, copy the last two backups of the old bookmarkbackups folder to a location such as the desktop, see the following article (you will use 'Choose file' in the menu to access these backups): restoring bookmarks from a backup or move them to another computer. Note that this process will replace all new bookmarks that you may have saved since installing Firefox again. If you need to preserve those, first use the export feature: Export Firefox bookmarks to an HTML file for backup or transfer bookmarks.

• synchronization of bookmarks on the new operating system

  Computer work migrated to a new operating system (XP to W7), I created an account to sync to save bookmarks and versions etc. the installation. How can I get my info on the computer? I tried "Pair the device", but this is the same computer, and the option does not work.

  Hello vanaya2002, firefox sync was not primarily as a backup service, but to keep multiple devices on the same plane.

  in order to access the data in your sync account, you would need three elements: user name, the password and the recovery key that is generated when the original configuration of the account.
  
  where you have all these three pieces of information, you can go to firefox > options > synchronization > sync Setup > I have an account > I don't have the camera with me to link firefox to your existing account.

• When installing a new operating system isn't automatically wipe the hard disk, create a new partition, and then install the operating system?

  Have a Dell system, caught a virus and it has really messed up the PC. Recently, it got worse so I tried to reinstall the operating system with the Dell disks. It wouldn't work. So I bought for Windows 7 Professional, it will not be installed. My first question when installing a new operating system isn't automatically wipe the hard disk, create a new partition, and then install the operating system? Because this does the same as the Dell disks, is to take what is on the hard drive and put it in a folder called windows old, is not formatting the HD. When I boot the disk, it shows the installation of files then open windows and start the installation. Before he could finish I get an error missing or corrupted files. Tried several times now, windows will still not open. Any suggestions? Once while trying to install the pc crashed with a blue screen which is one of the reasons why I have reinstall the OS, he started to plant a few times. I don't remember all the details on my PC, but its 4 years, triple core coprocessors, ram 8 GB, 500 GB HD. At the same time just after all this started in Jan. I had also improved my 3 GB to 8 GB memory. I bought the Dell memory for my system. Since the crash, could there be a problem with these new memory chips? Last night I tried to disassemble each and reinstalling it, but that doesn't seem to make a difference. Before I tried to reinstall the operating system, the pc was see the concert 8.

  Disconnect any other (additional) internal hard drives and external USB devices.
  Look for any loose hard drive power or cables SATA, graphics card or other power cables.

  First run Memtest86 +:
  It runs from a floppy disk or CD and should eliminate or confirm if one or more of your memory
  sticks are bad or the values of the SPD in the BIOS are correct.
  Let it run for as long as you can: 2,4,6,8 or several hours (at least 3 full passes), so no errors at that time then your ram is OK.
