• Cannot install Windows 8 on retina Macbook Pro 2011

  I try to install and run Windows 8 on my Macbook Pro 15 "retina end 2011 with OS 10.10.5."

  I read a ton of forums, and they say all get a Windows 8 ISO from Microsoft Web site. I did it.

  Then, they say get a Virgin USB key and plug it in. I did, and I put the ISO on my USB external drive.

  Then he said: open Boot Camp Assistant, what I do, but then it does not match what say all forums. When I open the Boot Camp Assistant, he goes to the Introduction page. I click CONTINUE and the next page says SELECT TASKS. The only two available tasks are to "Download the latest software from Apple support" or "install Windows 7 or later.

  I select both, it asks me to select my destination drive, what I do, then click "CONTINUE".

  It downloads the Windows support software.

  Then I get an error message that says "Installer disc cannot is, wait a few minutes for something (I forget exactly).»

  So I wait and nothing happens and I'm back on the screen SELECT TASK.

  ANY HELP MUCH APPRECIATED.

• It is possible (and useful) to upgrade my Macbook Pro 2011 (early)?

  My Macbook Pro 2011 (start) 13 "has served me very well. I took the approach to resist many updates over the past 1.5 years).

  However, in the last 6 weeks, it really began to slow down. I'm not too keen on the storage in the Macbook Pro 2015 options so not sure I want to buy immediately. I have never tried to upgrade the macbook - so I don't know how easy/possible/useful it is to do. Here is my card... can someone tell me if this can be improved and if so, if she's worth ($-wise)?

  Intel Core i7 2.7 GHz

  4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3

  Intel HD Graphics 3000 384

  Free GB 498 296 GB

  Contains 2 memory slots, which each accept a DDR3 1333 MHz memory bar. Each unit already has 2 GB.

  No game - I use it mainly for work (freelance marketing/communication - writing, presentations, artistic director) and the House (photos/home movies, internet, backup of the device).

  Slow down especially occurs in switching between programs, using products MS - sometimes opening and closing old/new docs. Internet connectivity usually ok but slow switching between windows in Safari.

  Any suggestions, help would be very appreciated. I want to take a decision quickly before it begins to die.

• Memory - Macbook Pro 2011

  Help, please! I have a MacBook Pro 13 inch end 2011. I want to upgrade the memory of 4 GB (2 x 2 GB) to 16GB (2 x 8 GB).

  Can I buy 16GB and they say it's for the MacBook Pro 2011, but it says on the site of Apple 8GB maximum memory.

  Everyone is running 16GB and it works fine?

  I upgraded to El Capitan, and my mac seems slower.

  Back in 2011 8 GB SODIMM costs $1000 + if they still existed.  Apple tested the SODIMM 4 GB at reasonable price and never reviewed the hardware older after 8 GB SODIMM fell to $50.

  I run 16 GB Crucial in my MBP 2011 very well.  Crucial or OWC (macsales.com) sell RAM reliable and provide guarantees for life.

• In order to get updates of Firefox, I need to install El Capitan.  El Capitan work well on a MacBook Pro 2011?

  Have a 2011 MacBook Pro, just received a message from Firefox saying that they support is more Yosemite 10.10.5 in a few months (updates, security updates etc.) and I need to improve my ios.  Question... are there problems with El Capitan on a MacBook Pro 2011?  Thank you

  not that I've heard of. You will need to make sure that you have at least 4 GB of ram on board, except that you should be good to go. Log in the App store, grab a copy and follow the instructions on the screen. You may need to reboot at least once...

  Good luck

  Is it possible to power (charge) my MacBook Pro 2011 USB port?  I had the case where I forgot my card (or used my MacBook more than expected) and he should be charged.  Since normally the USB provides power, I didn't connect it to a power outlet (via adapter).

  I am running OSX El Capitan.

  Thank you

  N ° USB came out only one power supply.

  is it because of power problems?

  Take it back to the Apple Store and ask them to check it out. It should be under warranty. Bring the MBP along too. It sounds like there might be a problem with it.

• I have a Macbook pro (2011 model). It gets stuck on the start screen on to half way through commissioning. This happens whenever the mac turns on. The problem is solved when I reinstall Yosemite to boot to Recovery Mode disk utility.

  I have a Macbook pro (2011 model). It gets stuck on the start screen on to half way through commissioning. This happens whenever the mac turns on. The problem is solved when I reinstall Yosemite to boot to Recovery Mode disk utility. However, the next time you start, the startup process is blocked to halfway to new (on the screen with the toolbar and the status of apple). I want a more permanent solution to reinstall the operating system every time. Would appreciate someone's suggestions and thanks in advance.

  Replace your hard drive.

  You have a backup of trust? If not, buy a disc of exterrnal for that as well.

  The progress bar from the left end at the beginning of the commissioning indicates that your drive has been so damaged, it could not be mounted. Five minutes of progress bar is shown as it does the equivalent of disk utility (ERD [Directory]). If you have reinstalled several times and the problem is not fixed, your drive is in solid form.

• I installed Windows XP Professional on MacBook Pro with Dell-branded OS. How can I legally activate it?

  I installed Windows XP Professional on MacBook Pro with a Windows XP CD is a Dell machine.

  I want to activate windows now, but I came to know that the Windows XP Professional license is no longer available on the market.

  Please guide me this license to purchase to activate it?

  If the Windows 7 key can activate windows XP Professional?

  I don't want to go to Windows XP Mode because we have one standard on our local network for all PC is Windows XP Professional.

  Thank you

  Khawar Pasha

  First of all - what you were doing was not a legitimate path in the first place.  The Dell OEM was probably already used on a Dell system at some point.

  Second - to activate Windows XP Professional OEM, you need a product key for Windows XP Professional OEM.  No, the Windows 7 licenses will not help you.

  Probably your only choice (and is not the best) is to locate someone sell Windows XP Professional on the Internet, find the provider that you can trust most, purchase and use of the CD and the product key you get to install.

• Try to install Windows 7 via USB, El Capitan, Macbook Pro 2011 but get this error "No. BOOTABLE DEVICE - INSERT BOOT DISK AND press ANY KEY ' when bootcamp restart my macbook to begin the installation. Any ideas?

  I am trying to install Windows 7 via USB, (El Capitan, Macbook Pro - early 2011), but this mistake "No. BOOTABLE DEVICE - INSERT BOOT DISK AND press ANY KEY ' when bootcamp restart my macbook to begin the installation. Any ideas?

  You cannot use a USB on Mac 2011 Installer. Please burn the ISO on a physical DVD Windows (a DVD - R Carbon SL on the rate of burning slower is better) and use it to install Windows. The file Info.plist changes only allowing the creation of USB, but does not fully support a USB Installation.

• How to Speed Up my MacBook Pro 2011... ?

  I know the PC no need to defragment... (and has been a while since I had a PC...) But assuming that slow, long time loading with a MacBook Pro should be similar?  I am an artist, workshops and have used my laptop to interface and connect frame PowerPoint presentations, PDF files to the spotlight (rarely)... and have Creative Suite and do lot of work of art, including some digital painting, lots of photos of my paintings and so on.  It has been my workhorse.  I regularly save my large picture and video files to a few Seagate external drives, to keep the memory on the MacBook, as you'll see in my store that I post below.

  Creation of new software, operating systems, I know that it is inevitable that my machine will become obsolete, but functionally obsolete or slow is one thing, not being not able to download the latest bells and whistles is another.

  All of the suggestions.  I have a former student who took his MacBook Pro to a one hour by car guy, who would have been cleaned and accelerated his.  The idea of falling for someone, well... before I do that I want to know if it's legitimate or recommended?  My operations work all... but just that there are some lag, latency well sometimes serious.  I have several times now, I had to force the stop to get the little ball stops with no happening of the operation and the thing command option ESC doesn't seem to always want to come to force a program application to close.

  Here's the low down on my system...

  2011

  10.7.5 lion

  2 GHz Intel Core i7 processor

  Memory - 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3

  (memory 2 slots 2 GB each)

  total of 4 carrots

  Storage, I show 396,36 GB free on 499,25 possible GB

  my screen is 15.4 '' (1680 x 1050) "

  Any suggestion would be appreciated... Thank you

  Do not download stuck in a Windows mentality.  The HARD drive is not a Defrag.  OSX tends to take care of himself.

  There are two changes of material, that you can do to improve the performance of your Mac.  A 201ll MBP can accept up to 16 GB of RAM.  If this isn't the case, 16 GB RAM, install at least 8 GB.  The best sources of RAM compatible Macs are OWC and Crucial.

  Even better is to install an SSD.  Start and stop times will be considerably reduced and when you work on a resources intensive applications you will be rewarded with a much better response and duration of treatment.  As with RAM, OWC and Crucial SSD you are the best solution.  Avoid Samsung, too many complaints with them.

  If you download and view a report of Etrecheck, perhaps, we can see some software problems that may slow you down:

• MacBook pro 2011 - starts greenish screen not

  Hi all

  I wonder what is happening to my macbook pro.

  Product: macbook pro start 2011-2 GHz - 8 GB ram - running os 10.11.4

  symptoms: suddenly stopped last week when I was watching a movie. Note that the fans were noisy given that the weather was warm and the hot computer as well. Now it starts but won't go to the part of connection. It shows a greenish screen with weird block lines. Please see the pictures attached.

  Looks like it could be the graphics card.

  I tried to clear the NVRAM, boot in safe mode and reinstall in wifi, but that did not help

  

  I tried to get an appointment at the apple shop local, but the waiting time is just crazy...

  Thank you for your support.

  Use the Installation of Snow Leopard original CD and see if you can access disk utility and run first aid on the HARD drive.

  If you need, ask.
