I was on my Windows 8.1 side for a bit, just got back home and switched to OS X. I got stuck at loading screen, turned it off, turn back on, bam i'm in. Everything's working alright, I'm listening to spotify, browsing the internet, then all of a sudden chrome starts taking forever to download a song from soundcloud. Chrome starts acting REALLY slow. I close it, then I can't open it again. Try safari, safari keeps telling me "can't find site 'netflix.com' error message won't go away, try googling my problem "can't find site 'google.com'. OK eff this, I restart.. won't load, stuck at loading start...
OK recovery mode time, I repair the disk and there's a buttload of errors and takes a couple minutes to fix, then I repair the permissions as well just in case, re-start, and all my settings got reset, all my apps opened up like it was their first time opening, and 4 apps on the dock showed question marks (all the yosemite apps). Now I've been using Mavericks because Yosemite freezes the dock and itunes dragging for me so I'm waiting on a fix for that..
But yea..... what the hell just happened?
Some background info:
I'm running a TWO MONTH old 2013 Refurbished Retina MacBookPro 15' maxed out stats. The laptop has done this before on me. I couldn't log in and had to re-install Mavericks and Yosemite, then Yosemite didn't work properly anymore (dock/itunes freezing), then I had to re-install Mavericks. I've had to re-install the operating system approximately 5-6 times now.
What the hell is wrong with my laptop?
Why should I have to keep repairing disks so frequently? Why can the disk never STAY fixed. I'm so confused. I've learned so much about Mac lately having to deal with all this ****.. but it's not just "working" for me. I'm not gonna lie I love it when it WORKS, but it's like a dissaster waiting to happen. Luckily I'm now well versed in the timemachine backups and an extra backup for important files. This is a professional work machine for me, and I made the switch 2 months ago and would really like some insight to what's happening.
-----------------
I made a post on reddit about this and just copied and pasted. I've made posts about more problems I've had on here before, and a couple times people say I might have a faulty disk. Could that really be the problem? Did they sell me a faulty MBP? Will they compensate me if I take it in to a Apple Store and there's problems with the SSD? Like I said it's been 2 months and I've have more than enough problems and I'm kind of fed up. I really like the OS when it's working properly, but like I said I'm all apprehensive cause I'm just expecting it to act up again.. and I'm kind of upset I can't use Yosemite cause it looks wonderful.
Please help me out, thanks.
