Hi Sifu,

My MacBook Pro starts to act strangely after updated to the latest OS X.

The keyboard is typing all the Greek symbols instead of English, even I have chosen the English/U.S option at the system preference.
When I click on to the next page when in a website under safari, the page won't show up, but it will be downloaded at the 'download' application.


Can someone help me please?

Check if you have enough free space. Else you might want to reformat and start from scratch.

I have problem with my mbp mid 2012. I last used it on friday night. Today when I tried to boot it, it showed blinking question mark folder. So I boot into startup manager and ran disk utility test. There was only one drive named 'base hd' maybe. I forgot the actual name of the drive. Dont think that was my hdd because the size is only 1.19gb.

And then I tried to use reinstall os x option. When it comes to select disk part, it showed nothing. sad.gif

I opened my mbp and tried replugging the hdd still ended up with the same thing. sad.gif what is usually the problem? Is it the hdd? Or the cable? Anyone knows how much it would cost me if the cable is broken?

hi everyone, i just got myself a 2nd hand macbook Air mid 2013 2 days ago. after clean install from 10.8 to meverick and i straight perform updates(some MBA firmware update) from appstore.during the process i didn't charge my MBA.

after updated, it perform a restart. but after the restart, my MBA is not booting anymore. i can hear the fan "zip.................zip" but it just wont boot up.

any1 face this problem? so what am i suppose to do?

previous owner claims that the MBA was bought on April at Dubai. because when i wanna check the warranty, this MBA was not registered yet and i cant register now, it require "proof of purchase" even though i put the date on April 2014. can i email apple to register this MBA?

This topic is not for upgrades discussion. Anyway to your question, yes, but you will loose your AppleCare.

Probably the Option key is stuck down there. Temporary solution so you can type is to disable the Option key in System Preferences.

System Preferences > Keyboard > Modifier Keys > Option Key > No Action

Definitely something wrong on the hardware side, not the software issue.
