vanessarrent Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I have been trying to install software updates but everytime my computer restarts it doesnt install them and it just goes straight to my login. But, my brother have a iMac and he was able to updates his softwares. Why my Macbook Pro can't?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Might be worth taking it into your local apple store's "tech" bar for advise. Assuming you have a local apple store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vanessarrent Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 I have to buy a hard drive to transfer my data. I still didn't buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 The downsize of owing a Mac, when it goes wrong it's not the cheapest to repair. You can't just take it to a local computer repair person as they not be trained in Mac repairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vanessarrent Posted December 2, 2012 Author Share Posted December 2, 2012 My brother and I have the same specifications. We both bought our Macbook and iMac in 2011. But, it's been 2 months that my Macbook Pro is fixed! The guy at the Genius Bar repaired the disk and all was back to normal! :smug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Baron Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Kind of a old thread but whenever I had software installation problems with OSX tiger I would go into Applications> Utillities > Disk Utility and repair the disk permissions, that usually fixed things for me. Kinda of ridiculous somebody would actually recommend a complete reformating of the hard drive for a problem like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
