Mine is a Late 2011 MacBook Pro with the flawed AMD gPU here's what I do for updates: 1st I made a High Sierra 10.13.4 USB installer from dosdude's website- just google it 2nd I have a f.sh script in root containing: #/bin/sh sudo nvram boot-args="-v" sudo nvram...

SO im able to boot and get to the login screen, but the loading bar sits at 3/4 lead and then does nothing. Ive left it for hours and it sits there, and then sometimes it goes to an all blue screen with vertical black lines then restarts, any thoughts? I attached a picture of the specs!

I have an Early 2011 MacBook Pro 13" that runs well but has been a bit slower than I want it to be. A few years ago, I upgraded the RAM from 4GB to 8GB when I started using Adobe software regularly. I still have the stock 320GB Hitachi HDD. Forgive me if I am not clear, I am not very well versed...

Hi I'm a newbie, go easy, I have a 15-inch, Late 2011 MBP, swapped the HD for a 2Tb SSD and popped 16GB. Now looking to pull out the optical drive and replace it with something that might aid in cooling down. I'd like to avoid a fan but if there is an off the shelf one made, I'd do it. OR...

Greetings! Recently (like in the last month), I got my 2011 MBP repaired on Apple's dime for the video issue. New motherboard and out the door. The authorized service center guy was amazing, but yet he stated that it maybe about time to look for a new laptop. Now keep in mind he wasn't...

Is OSX Sierra Worth Installing on Late 2011 MBP? My late 2011 MBP is currently on El Capitan and I was wondering if anyone has noticed any issues installing the new OSX on the Late 2011 MBP models?

Does anyone have any recommendations for an External Monitor, which will work smoothly with my MBP (Late 2011). After doing a bit of research I found that some of the UHD monitors may not work with my MBP 2011 model ideally, a UHD monitor would be preferred as I would be looking to upgrade my...

Hope someone can shed some light on this. My MBP Mid 2011 HDD cable has failed for the third time. First time, I replaced it by getting one from iFixIt. It worked fine for about 9 months and failed again. iFixIt replaced it free under warranty. The third one has now failed. I know it's the...

Hi guys, I'm having some difficulties of defining which RAM memories are compatible exactly with my MBP 17 2011 early, which is running currently on 2x4GB 1333Ghz DDR3 RAM memory and I want to upgrade it to 2x8 1600Ghz DDR3(l)? I live in Europe and purchasing RAM memories from US will be too...

Hi, About 2 years ago, my 15" MBP suffered the "Radeongate" video problem. At the time, Apple didn't offer a suitable solution for me. (Their repair offer was too expensive for me, and on some forums I had heard stories that Apple's repair may not last for long). So, when the problem happened...
