Actually, I am posting this for my mom. She is 80 and over the last couple of years has really gotten quite good with using a computer. She pays bills online, checks email, uses the word processor, prints wirelessly, and uses Facebook.
She has been using a MacBook Pro for about 3 years. Everything has worked very well until about 6 months ago. Some workers were working on utilities on the street outside her house and accidently "cut"? a line, or did something that "messed up" her internet connection. She let them know, they fixed it, but then the problems started with her MacBook .
Now, her MacBook gets hung-up, stuck, frozen after about 6 minutes of running. It works everywhere else, like my house, the Apple Store, the U-Break It We Fix It store, etc... It just gets stuck at her house. I gets stuck when it is connected to the internet and when it is not connected to the internet. It gets stuck in two different rooms of the house.
Her iPad and iPhone work fine in her house. Other laptops and MacBooks work at her house.
No one seems to have a clue, so I told her I would turn to the best online forum I know.
Please help.
