I had bought this macbook pro (osx lion 10.8) off of craigslist. Macbook 2010, he replace the hard drive for a faster one (state slate or something like that), he gave me the original one. I am trying to install pro tools 10, but the macbook would not let me stall any software. Computer won't download/install programs. Hope this helps and let us know more. I have also tried downloading MalwareBytes software, but unfortunately, I cannot download some things. Turn on your Mac. Immediately press and hold the Option-Command-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears. Continue holding the keys down until your Mac restarts, and you hear the startup sound for the second time.

Note that Wine is not a fully stable application. Thus, some functions in the applications you start under it may work improperly or not work at all.
