Can I use aperture 3 in live view shooting on my macbook pro

Can I use aperture 3 in live view on my mac boook pro ?

Why would you use two?
It is much cheaper and better to simply use a usb drive..
The TC cannot be linked to store files or automatically back them up.. whereas a usb drive at least will be backed up by Time Machine.
If you want to do this properly get a real NAS.. that has mirrored drives and real rsync type backup. You can use an airport extreme for wireless.

HT5639 Can I use Boot Camp to install Linux on my MacBook Pro?

Can I use Boot Camp to install Linux on my MacBook Pro?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Boot Camp wasn't designed to install Linux. Apart from that, the Boot Camp version included in OS X Mountain Lion will ask you to insert a Windows 7 or Windows 8 DVD in order to run Boot Camp, as far as I know.
Apple doesn't support Linux on Macs, but it works properly on Macs. There are a lot of how-to's in the Internet about the steps to install Linux and the different possibilities you have. Also, what distribution do you want to install on the computer? You should also consider the option to install Linux on a virtual machine

Can I use the "Find My iPad" app in my MacBook Pro when the iPad has a different Apple ID?

Can I use the "Find My iPad" app in my MacBook Pro when the iPan has a different Apple ID & password than the MacBook Pro?

On your Macbook you access Find My iPad via a Web Browser at http://icloud.com
This will require you to sign on using the Apple ID and password used for the iPad iCloud.

Can I use my iMac as a 'display' for my MacBook Pro?

Hi all, I am really hoping someone can help me here.
I am wondering if I can use my 24" iMac as a display for my MacBook Pro (both running Snow Leopard).
It's my father's 80th birthday party in about 24 hours time. I am doing up the music and slideshow (thanks Apple - so easy!).
My plan was to simply take my iMac and use it. However, I managed to drop the wireless keyboard (darn those dogs) and now my keyboard won't work. I have no backup keyboards here (gave the wired one to Dad to use with his Mac mini). I live in a country area with no access to a Mac store and it will take more than 24 hours to get a new one. Went to my local 'other computer' general store last night: I really don't want to buy an ugly black keyboard..... I have just had a great idea:
Can I network my MacBook Pro and use it as the source for the slide show and simply use the iMac as a display? I have plenty of DVI adaptors but am just not sure how I would go about the software side of things? Or should I simply buy an ugly PC keyboard (and if I do, will the WIndows button work as an Apple button???)
Any suggestions would be really appreciated.
Thanks!

The imac 24 can't be used as a monitor over a DVI connection or the like, Suzanne, but you may be able to achieve what you want to using "Screen Sharing" by networking the two computers. This lets your MBP effectively control what is running on the iMac.
See HERE for the basic setup. For information about how to access the "shareable" screen from the MBP see HERE.
One possible problem may be actually getting this set-up on the iMac if it is not already enabled, however, unless you can borrow a keyboard from someone (your password may have to be entered to enable it). You may be able to get around this, if necessary, using the "keyboard viewer" (which you can place in the menubar using System preferences > Keyboard, if you don't already have it there).

Can I use Mac Mini as a "server" for a MacBook Pro and iMac?

I want to develop a simple system for accessing my files from multiple devices.
I heavily use iTunes (190 GB), iPhoto (120 GB) and iMovie (30 GB, but want to do more when I get time). Additionally, I store lots of old videos on circa 10 portable hard drives (1 TB each), which I access occasionally.
The family use all this content and we currently have a MacBook Pro and are considering buying a new computer - either a new MacBook Pro or an iMac. We also have iPads, iPhones etc and a Time Capsule. We use wireless fibre optic broadband.
I don't really want multiple iTunes and iPhoto libraries. We want all our music and pictures in single master libraries that we can all access and update.
As there is seemingly too much data to store on iCloud, we need to find an alternative solution.
My possible solution is:
(1) Load my master iTunes, iPhoto and iMovie libraries ("iTPM libs") on a Mac mini
(2) Buy a new MacBook Pro or iMac (probably doesnt matter which)
(3) Link the MacBook Pro(s) and iMac to the Mac mini to access iTunes, iPhoto and iMovie and the master iTPM libs
(4) Plug the portable hard drives into the Mac mini whenever I need to access the video content stored on the portable hard drives
(5) Add "users" to the system (i.e. family members), in the same way you would access a shared server at work
(6) Over time, buy more computers to access the system in the same way
My questions are:
(1) Is this system feasible?
(2) If so, can I edit the iTPM libs from the MacBook Pro or iMac?
(3) If so, what happens if both the MacBook Pro and iMac are accessing the libraries at the same time? Which takes precedent?
(4) Would this solution be significantly slower than having separate libraries on the different computers?
(5) Is there an alternative approach that might work better for my needs? (which are, after all, relatively straight forward). When I went to the Apple store they were unsure!
Many thanks.

The "update" portion of this is where your problems will arise. You'd be better to consider your proposed system initially in terms of content "consumption", before getting into the nitty-gritty of editing shared content.
iTunes has the Home Sharing feature built-in, which solves the content consumption issue.
I don't know anything about sharing iPhoto libraries, but this KB article looks useful.
As for iMovie, I think there are two things you want to do: share the raw data (sound effects, music, photos etc.) that are used to create iMovie content; and share the finished results. Is that right? I'm not sure how you'd go about doing that, but if you clarify your aims in this regard, it'll help the next person who comes along.
When it comes to updating content, such as adding new music to iTunes or iPhoto, I'd suggest you do it through the Mac mini directly. This seems the least problematic solution. You wouldn't necessarily need a dedicated display for the Mac mini - you could use remote desktop or VNC or what-have-you.
As for speed: doing anything across a network is always going to be slower than doing it locally. But, it probably won't matter for content consumption (though if you're all watching different movies at the same time the drives on the server may struggle, and the wifi bandwidth might be tight).
I hope this represents a good initial response to your query.

How Can I use Type II PC Cards (cardbus) On My Macbook Pro

Greetings...
I have tried a search but to no avail.... I was given FREE of charge a EVDO pc card to use with UNLIMITED usage p/month...PROBLEM is I have Macbook Pro original release.. the card is obviously the Type II pc card..
1. is there any way i can use this card with my macbook pro?
2. what is the official "name" of my model? i.e. 1st release.. ect. ect..
3. what other way can i make this work?
please do advise..
thank you kindly!!
oNe

Hi Sean,
1. I found this with a quick Google search: http://www.duel-systemsadapters.com/?productid=DP-0001
Only catch with this is the cost of the adapter negates the free pc card.
2. Not sure of an official name other than MacBook Pro and then it's CPU speed and its chip designation (i.e. Core Duo, Core 2 Duo). I've seen the last couple of generations referred to by Intel's designations (i.e. Santa Rosa, Penryn).
3. Don't know any other way other than getting an Expresscard-compliant card.
HTH.

Can I use the same Time Capsule to backup two MacBook Pros?

Basically, I want to know if I can backup my late 2009 MacBook Pro and my new one with retina display using the same time capsule? Maybe should I create different partitions on the time capsule?

Yes, provided your backup drive is big enough. For a Time Machine backup your backup drive should be at least twice the capacity of the drive it backs up. In the case of two drives sum the capacities of the two drives. Be sure you backup drive is at least twice that capacity.
You cannot partition a Time Capsule drive.

Can I use Final Cut Studio 2 on the latest macbook pro retina display?

I'm planning on buying the 15" macbook pro retina display and was given Final cut studio 2 from a friend as he woudn`t use it.
is it possible to install this program on the computer at all and successfully use it or can i upgrade to the newest version?

Studio 2? FCP 6? No. Sorry, won't even install. It's 8 year old software...and Apple no longer supports it.
The latest version, FCP-X...costs $299. There is no upgrade cost. But once you buy it, every single update after that is free...given the history of past updates. Note...it's very different from FCP 6. Completely different app.

How can i use my phone number for imessage on my macbook pro?

I have been trying to sync my iMessages between my iPhone 4s and my macbook pro but it will only use my email. I have been told to change the setting in the message menu but I can't seem to find that! Help me please!!!
Thank you!

TRy to check on your imessage setting on your iphone. It should be setting>messages> imessage. If you can see your phone number then your mac will be able to see your message. If not toggle the message on and off. Once activated your mac will ask you if you would like to use your number for imessage, click agree(0r yes) then you will also receive a message on your iphone that your mac started using your phone number for imessage

Can I use a Usb external hard drive on my macbook pro?

I have a new macbook pro and have tried to connect my usb external hard drive , it shows up on the home screen and i can view and read only i cannot save anything into the external hard drive can anyone help.

Yes. You have to prep it for your Mac. Currently it's setup for Windows.
Drive Partition and Format
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.

I can't use the new Adobe Reader X on my Macbook Pro. HELP!

The other day I downloaded the new Adobe Reader X on my MacBook Pro. Since then I can't open pdfs in Firefox. How can this problem be solved????

Hey vgamborg,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
This article should help you troubleshoot issues playing sound from the built-in speakers. Try the steps listed, and I quoted a part about the red light.
Troubleshooting issues with no audio from built-in speakers on Macs
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1574
Check to see if a red light is lit in the line-out port. If so, your Apple computer may need service.
Have a nice day,

TS4345 Can I use Migration Assistant to get info from a Macbook Pro that has a dead screen?

I have a MacBook Pro 17 that the screen died on. I have a new MacBook Pro coming tomorrow and need to try to find a way to get the info from the old one to the new one. From the online info I saw on Migration Assist you need both screens to work to get a authentification code. Is there any work around? I don't know what system the old one is and have no idea what type of sharing may have been on or off.

AFAIK, you can use the Setup Assistant on first boot w/o any authentication code or sharing stuff. See Pondini's Setup New Mac guide for details.

Can i use an WD Scorpio Black 750GB in my Macbook pro late 2007 ver 3.1 ??

Hi everybody
Just wondering of I would run into problems installing an WD Scorpio Black 750GB in my Macbook pro late 2007 ver 3.1. 2.6Ghz.
Already have 2 500GB installed in RAID but need more space and want to upgrade but someone told me that this MBP ver 3.1 only supports max 500GB drives......
Is that true??
Thanks
Uffe / Lobojuan

If the hard drive is 9.5mm thick any SATA hard drive can be used.
A few may require jumpers if they are higher than 1.5Gbps in data speed.
Only 17" MacBook Pros of that generation could take 12.5mm thick drives.
The capacity is not normally the limit anymore, it is the thickness and data path speeds that make a difference. Also your machine supports external SATA drives that are 3.5" with this adapter:

These drives are faster than any internal, ethernet, or Firewire drives you can add to your machine.
