Dec 24, 2013 10:46 AM in response to kbcocoby OGELTHORPE,That usually means a RAM issue. Take out the RAM modules and make certain that the connections are clean and reinstall them, making certain that they are well seated.
Have you recently installed new RAM? If so it may be faulty.
If no change you may run an Apple Hardware Test:

That may pick up some problems.

Dec 24, 2013 10:49 AM in response to kbcocoby sanjampet,# beeps on start usually means Bad ram, have toy changed the ram? Maybe it is not seated correctly, or it is incompatiblw or just bad.
You can bring it to an Apple store Genius bar for a free evaluation/disgnosis.
If you installed 3rd party RAM, you should try to get a new set, as there may be a problem with it.

Jan 10, 2014 2:30 AM in response to Chandewwwby OGELTHORPE,Chandewww, greetings: RAM (your MBP's memory) failure does not equate to data loss. If you are in desperate situation and are not well versed in the physical internal parts of your MBP, local assistance at a repair facility may be your best option.
