  • Broadway Computers :
    PRAM Reset :
    Your Mac stores certain settings in a special memory area even if it is turned off. On Intel-based Macs, this is stored in memory known as NVRAM; on PowerPC-based Macs, this is stored in memory known as PRAM.
    Information stored in NVRAM / PRAM includes:
    Speaker volume
    Screen resolution
    Startup disk selection
    Recent kernel panic information, if any
    If you experience issues related to these functions, you may need to reset the NVRAM or PRAM. For example, if your Mac starts up from a startup disk other than the one you've specified in Startup Disk preferences, or if a "question mark" icon appears briefly when your Mac starts up, resetting NVRAM / PRAM may help.
    System Management Controller (SMC) Reset:
    It is possible that the SMC could encounter an issue that may cause unusual system behavior typically related to the symptoms described below. In some cases, resetting the SMC may be the only correct method to resolve the issue. However, an SMC reset should only be attempted after all other standard troubleshooting has been performed.

    The remedy for the loud and unusual theme music: simply mute the video, any what there are no verbal instructions. The pace was a bit fast for me as well so I set the play speed at .75. Hope this helps. And thanks to the person who made this. Consider the advice .

    in SMC reset description mistake - press and hold SHIFT-CTRL-OPT (NOT CMD-OPT-P-R!). Thank you. Happy New 2023 year!

    In the overlay regarding smc reset it says command option p+r, what you press in the video is crt, option+ shift

    I think the text on screen explaining the SMC reset is wrong. #2 shold be SHIFT+CTRL+OPT and POWER-button, shoudnt it?

  • @johnchristopherdelegero2626
    @johnchristopherdelegero2626 8 років тому +3

    in your video it says smc reset press option command p + r then you press shift control option + power button, why what are those that combination do for? are you using different mac? sorry i am just confused a little, but its very informative tutorial and i learned a lot since i am only a regular mac user a not a tech guy.

  • @vk-vp8rc
    @vk-vp8rc 2 роки тому

    watching your video, I think smc reset is done with left shift, left control, left option on keyboard while you press power button. But your text explanation says command+Option+P+R. Correct me if Iam wrong.

  • @fdanny03

    You say to reset SMC press and hold command-option-P-R keys but on the video you press option-control-shift keys. Which one is correct!

    Your SMC reset button config instruction isn't accurate....although you performed it correctly in the video...the buttons are "control, option, shift...and power"

I already changed the HD flat And flat from the CD-ROM (which I actually put an adpt to HD), I already did PRAM, I've already rescheduled smc .... do you have any idea what that might be?

    WRONG! 3:13 you write: "Resetting SMC … 2. Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys" that is PRAM reset - that's something different! But it makes sense to try PRAM first. Then SMC reset: MagSafe must be connected to power, then press shift+option(alt)+control(ctrl) and power button at the same time, release all and turn on your mac with the power button.

      This video is only for newer Apple notebooks with fully interior battery pack (no coin slot latch on the bottom case). Also, the first MacBook was 2006, so you do not have a 2003 MacBook. No one but you knows what a "circle of death" is. If you are writing about the prohibitory sign, it means the ROM thinks the version of OS on the startup volume is not compatible with this Mac, such as OS X 10.11 on a 2006 MacBook Pro... for example.

    A HUGE mistake!!!! At 03:10 to 03:20, the text on your video says "Resetting SMC - Press and hold Command-Option-P-R keys before the grey screen appears". That's for NVRAM reset. The tech's fingers press the correct keys, though. Geez, you guys need to redo this. No wonder I see hundreds of folks in forums complaining that SMC didn't reset!!!!
