• Why the update did slow my MacBook pro down so

  Why the update did slow my MacBook pro down so much? What could be in the last update of El Capitan to slow my Mid 2010 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro 2.66 down so much?   He has never run it slow before! Everything takes more time in all areas. Could I have made a mistake during the download and installation?  If so is it possible to force a re - install the latest update?

  I don't know if I can restore back after an update of this size. Everyone has similar problems or have thoughts on what could be wrong? I know it's far from being a State of the art Macbook Pro. But it was working fine before the update.

  Any thoughts would be really appreciated. I can't afford to buy anything newer right now.

  Thank you

• searching for old files taken from an iPhone on your macbook pro

  Hi all

  A year ago, I have connected my iPhone sisters 5s (via usb cable) to my macbook pro to share some photo files. Recently, she has updated his iPhone and now all its data is missing.  She said that if she uses a given address, it will be able to find backups of shared files, and also what she had on her phone, i.e. missing data on my macbook pro. I have no idea if this is possible. If so, how would we get those files back ups?

  Thanks in advance for your advice and help

• Is it bad if you left your macbook pro in mode 'sleep' for 2 days?

  so I am only new macbook stuff and I have a problem. I hope you guys can help me...

  This bothered me and I need to have a concrete answer.

  BTW, it of also my first macbook pro 13 "with the retina and im a little FAKE and simply wanted the best for my mac.

  so I ate dinner on Saturday night and I put my mac to sleep and thought I'll come back on that a little later but then some of my family members came rushing in our House and I totally forgot the mac. they left Sunday. So today, Monday, 01:36, I decided to use it again and now I forgot to close! I am a shutter downer and I rarely put to sleep for a few reasons of OCD. Ive had this mac for less than a month. Is it bad for the overall mac? Or im just paranoid?

  In short, ive had to sleep during the day 1 and a half or two. And also to mention, the mac is placed inside the box, it came with it, because I have not bought anyway or the handle immediately.

  Thank you for the answers!

  There is no problem to leave it in mode 'sleep'. However, do not in an enclosure for example a box or a box.

• What percentage should you start/stop plug your macbook pro?

  I'm about to get a MBPr (early 2015 version) and I really want to have a long service life. I'll use it for about 5 years, until the College, which is quite long and probably a lot of users have it broken at that time here.

  • is there a certain percentage where I should start and stop it plug to a battery in good health? (e.g. use it until you go down to 40% then load 100% completely and repeat)
  • or is it also ok for him have charged 24/7 (as in almost never off the record) to maintain cycles down? I saw so many people say yes, but many also say it will ruin the battery.
    -a similar question, if I load 100%, I have to unplug it already or can I keep connected? and if I don't respect plugged, when the best time to unplug?

  I actually read a lot (as in a batch.) items already on the time to load, but then it's so many conflicting and contradictory responses and I don't know what it takes to follow (I'm also sure that some answers here will be contradictory between them as well, but I guess it's just inevitable). I'm sure from what I've read, just that lithium-ion batteries hate deep discharge, so I won't. Other than that, I'm still pretty confused on what's left to follow.

  Sorry if I seem like I'm overthinking it too, but nothing comes cheap nowadays and I really want this to last. any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

  He man,.

  -There is no percentage which is thought to be the percentage of start to use the charger. But often the people on this forum say they charge their macbook when they want, making sure to unload the macbook less than 20% just about once a month.

  -You can leave it loaded 24/7 If you want to. but I would recommend for battery less than 20% once a month or more. You can leave it connected after that the battery is fully charged.

  also accept that your battery will lose deep performance over time and as long as you don't release it your battery will be great for years to come and enjoy.

  Cheers!

• Why used my upgrade to the Macbook Pro to El Capitan?

  Mackbook Pro15 inches

  MAC OS X 10.6.3

  Processor Intel clocked at 2.66 GHz

  Memory 4 GB 1067 MHz

  I deleted my Mac pro and restored to factory setting, when I bought my new and transferred the files too.

  Works great just except for bad battery, but I keep it is plugged.

  Whenever I try to upgrade to the new OS (El Capitan v10.11.2) MAC it will start downloading normally, then says 'updates downloaded successfully.

  What makes the tab ' installation you must restart "so I click on restart

  He begins to shut down, but before he turned off the blue screen flickers and the picture below pop up.

  

  (you can see my cursor and I can move it, but nothing else happens)

  Even when I leave it just like that, luckily if I hold the power, but I can force a restart and it goes back to my MAC OS X 10.6.3 like nothing happened.

  I would like to update, but I don't understand why I can't.

  Where do you download El Capitan with 10.6.3?

  HHey guy. So, recently, I tried to restore my MacBook, and when I tried to support everything on every ORDER + R or OPTION that appears is a lock and a bar asking a password. Is there any kind of doc to it? Anything to help. Thanks in advance

• Sound is gone on my Macbook Pro. The icon is grey after trying to download a password security app Help!

  Sound is gone on my Macbook Pro. The sound icon went gray. This followed two downloads of password security applications and then deleted. The third I have kept and entered my password. If I go into the Time Machine to restore the system will delete the security of password I put in place after the last Time Machine backup?

  Thank you for your willingness to get out me of trouble!

  Hi Vincent,.

  I understand that you are no longer able to control the audio output on your Mac after installing a few different security applications. If you want to use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac at one point before installing these applications, it is absolutely an option. However, keep in mind that this kind would remove, indeed, any changes made after the point of this backup, including installation and configuration of said software.

  Alternatively, you can consider having a look at the article in the link below for steps that can help to restore the functionality of audio output on your MacBook Pro.

• Why impossible my macbook pro to read only 2 layers of AVCHD?

  Hello

  I have a brand new beginning 2011 17 "Macbook Pro with quad core i7 to 2.2 GHz, 8 GB ram, internal a two hard drive and 1 GB ATI graphics card (I used the OWC data Doubler to replace the optical drive with another SATA hd)."  The OS hd is 500 GB 7200 RPM and the other is 750 GB at 7200 RPM.  I have all my project files and media on the 750 and my cache of media on the 500. It seems to me that this should be a lot of power for read only 2 layers of AVCHD video smoothly, but maybe I'm wrong.  What is the bottleneck, & what can I improve? It's very frustrating. Another question, out of curiosity, is how the ATI card do in fact when using first pro? I know that it is not used as a CUDA card would be, so I'm just curious as to what he actually did.

  Thank you very much!

  Andrew

  Andrew,

  Here are the reasons why your MacBook Pro could not play back or even two layers of AVCHD video also gently as it should have been:

  (1) first Pro's highly multithreaded - but OSX itself is relatively poor compared to Windows 7 in multhreaded performance.

  (2) more mobile i7s are significantly slower than their desktop cousins because they are designed for low-power consumption, second creation. Mobile processors, in fact, is full of compromises, to start.

  And Yes, playback of AVCHD videos in itself is itself almost entirely in software only, even if you have an Nvidia card that fully supports the GPU acceleration in MPE. If you still need a very fast processor for even two layers of AVCHD playback (which are much more tax the CPU than most of the other HD formats - and there is absolutely no free lunch, in this case, because the HD codecs which require no such a robust CPU actually needs of larger and faster drives). Unfortunately, a 2.2GHz i7 is not yet powerful enough to decode the two layers of AVCHD simultaneously; in fact, you will need one that turns to well above 4 GHz can manage this task at all.
