My Macbook died
I’m sad tonight. My (work) Macbook died. I’ve had it for all of about 2 months, decided that as my iTunes database was getting pretty big (8gb) I would back it up.
Went through the backup process and about half way through writing to the first DVD it all froze up. Did a hard reboot and now it won’t boot up & the disk is making some funny noises.
A bit of googling leads me to believe that it’s a HDD crash and that I have not got much chance of seeing my data again, and that I could be without my laptop for a few weeks, which would suck.
It’s a sad day - ever since getting the macbook I’ve been configuring it, buying some great software and generally enjoying being on a mac again.
I’m off to cry myself to sleep ![]()

That’s the joy of backups. You never ever have them when you need them. Unless of course you’re the sort of person who keeps their socks in alphabetical order but that sort of person never has a hard drive crash so they’re just wasting their time. He says, typing this on his unbackedup Macbook.
Sorry to hear that mate. However I did warn you to get a “proper” pc
Haha.
