How can I make the Finder on my MacBook Pro recognize my iPad as a device?

I need to transfer images from my iPad to my MacBook Pro while preserving "file created" date and time information. Trying to do this using iPhoto has not been working for Vertical *****, since the program auto-rotates the images and marks them as created at the time they are imported. I would prefer to copy the images directly from the iPad to the MacBook Pro, but the iPad is not recognized as a device by the laptop's Finder, even though iTunes and iPhoto detect it. Any advice?

This is very frustrating... I did not capitalize the first letter of "vertical" and did not use any inappropriate words. This forum should provide a way to preview and edit posts. I believe I conveyed my question adequately and appreciate any feedback despite any possible distractions...

How can I make a backup from my Macbook Pro?

How can I make a backup from my Macbook Pro?

Basic Backup
For some people Time Machine will be more than adequate. Time Machine is part of OS X. There are two components:
1. A Time Machine preferences panel as part of System Preferences;
2. A Time Machine application located in the Applications folder. It is
     used to manage backups and to restore backups. Time Machine
     requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
     drive being backed up.
See Mac Basics- Time Machine. Please visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
Alternatively, get an external drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Get Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files. For help with using Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
Although you can buy a complete external drive system, you can also put one together if you are so inclined. It's relatively easy and only requires a Phillips head screwdriver (typically.) You can purchase hard drives separately. This gives you an opportunity to shop for the best prices on a hard drive of your choice. Reliable brands include Seagate, Hitachi, Western Digital, Toshiba, and Fujitsu. You can find reviews and benchmarks on many drives at Storage Review.
Enclosures for FireWire and USB are readily available. You can find only FireWire enclosures, only USB enclosures, and enclosures that feature multiple ports. I would stress getting enclosures that use the Oxford chipsets especially for Firewire drives (911, 921, 922, for example.) You can find enclosures at places such as;
1. Cool Drives
2. OWC
3. WiebeTech
4. Firewire Direct
5. California Drives
6. NewEgg
All you need do is remove a case cover, mount the hard drive in the enclosure and connect the cables, then re-attach the case cover. Usually the only tool required is a small or medium Phillips screwdriver.

How do we make the apple icon on Macbook pro?

Hi, I wonder how I can make the apple icon on Macbook pro and how i make a heart ( not like this - <3) Someone knos what I have to do?

Option-shft-K will get you the Apple logo in many, but not all, fonts.
To find a font with a heart glyph use Character Viewer.
Topher Kessler provides a how-to in this CNET article. He even uses "heart" in his search example.

How can i make factory reset to may macbook pro

hey, how can i make factory reset to my macbook pro

Throw away any files which may contain sensitive data and securely empty the Trash.
If it shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, insert its original disk and restart the computer with the C key held down.
If it shipped with Mac OS X 10.7 or newer, restart with the Command and R keys held down.
Use the Disk Utility to erase the partition with Mac OS X installed, and then install a new OS onto it. If you used a disk and are going to sell or give away the computer, include the disk with it.

How can I make restore disks on my macbook pro?

I just purchased a new 13" Macbook Pro and there are no restore disks. How can I make some?

Easy way is to take an external HD and make a bootable CLONE.
1. grab carbon copy cloner or (my fave) superDuper CLONE app.
2. attach target clone drive via USB in an enclosure or HD dock. Firstly format the target (external new) HD in disk utility in “Mac OS extended journaled”
3. clone internal HD to target HD (external) [takes about 40 mins depending on size]
4. Boot ONCE from external (go to sys. preference to boot from external) to TEST the new Clone
if your HD crashes, you can be up and running in SECONDS.
This is the option the pros use for quick restore from a serious crash.
**Remember of course, youll need otherwise saves of your data that come AFTER the clone.
Either that or regularly make a CLONE.
Another option is time machine, but it cannot be booted from.

How can I remove the ifunbox from my MacBook Pro?

I accidentally downloaded and installed the ifunbox and now I can not remove it. How can I get rid of it? Thank you.

You may have already found your answers but if not, you simply use your finder. Select 'Applications' on the side. Then find the iFunbox icon and drag it to your trash bin. Give it a few seconds and then check your launchpad. I should be gone. I had the same problem and got very frustrated at the fact that I couldn't remove it through the launchpad, as I do other apps. Hope this helped, that is if you still needed it.

How can I clean the keys on my Macbook Pro?

I got my macbook pro 7 months ago and the keys look terrible. I guess my fingers are naturally greasy, because the keys aren't as matte and rough as they were when I got the macbook; they're softer, have oil patches and are worn down. I've searched this topic everywhere but couldn't get a direct answer, and my keys need to be cleaned... Also, are they supposed to be worn down? My friend has had her macbook since last year and her keyboard is still matte and brand new, even though she doesn't clean it or use a keyboard cover. :T

I have cleaned my keys using two methods 1) with the microfiber cloth the mac came with. I made sure the cloth wasn't very wet. 2) I used electronic wipes. Both yielded excellent results. Make sure your mac is turned off and the magsafe power adapter is unplugged. I have had my current mac for 15 months and the keys do not appear to be worn at all, but I suppose it depends on how hard you type and how often.

How can I make audio play through my Macbook Pro while my Apple TV is on

My Macbook Pro has now defaulted to my Apple TV as its source of audio while on the same network. If I attempt to switch it to internal speakers by clicking option and the volume button, it will not stay changed to internal speakers. This would be ok, except the audio comes out as very choppy from the apple tv as well. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to play audio through my macbook again?

How can i check the temperature of my macbook pro

Hi, my Macbook pro, purchased in November '13, seems to get quite warm when streaming videos or using skype. I understand that these are heavy on the VPU, but it seems to get a lot warmer than my other PC notebooks. The fan was audible for the first time ever today. Is there a trusted app that can be used to measure core temps?

There are many.
iStatPro is a widget for the Dashboard.
Temperature Monitor is one such app.
Google, try the app store.

How can I stop the wifi causing my MacBook Pro from crashing?

Hi,
It seems that my notebook is locking up completely when Mail launches and tries to grab emails.
Occasionally I boot up and the 'wifi fan' icon on the menu bar is completely white: it doesn't find the router signal automatically.
If I get the 'three arcs: full signal" on the menu bar and I surf, I can get to a few pages, then I can't get another page to load up: but the 'three arcs' are still there.
If I click on the wifi fan logo and switch off wifi, when I try to switch it back on again, it simply won't show the 4 different signals it used to give me yesterday (mine and my neighbours). This is weird as in the past I could get surfing to work again by switching off wifi and switching it back on again. Not any more. So now I have to do a restart to get wifi working again. Yuck!
I also got a complete crash when I got iTunes to download some updated apps for my iPhone.
The following may or may not be related... I've just plugged in my iPhone, and I get a window saying "A new network interface has been detected. The 'iPhone USB" network interface has not been set up. To set up this interface, use Network Preferences." I have never seen this before, but I clicked on the button and the notebook seems happy now.
I look forward to your comments and suggestions! Thanks for being there!

Use a cloud serivce like Dropbox, Box, Google Drive, etc.
Personally, I use Box and it works very well.

How can I charge the battery in my macbook pro on a plane

I am getting ready to take a flight to Australia. How what do i need to get to charge the battery on the plane?

How can I improve the performance of my macbook pro?

My macbook is running really slow. is there a good free way to see if there is something wrong with it?

Please describe the problem in as much relevant detail as possible. The better your description, the better the chance of a solution.
For example, if the computer is slow, which specific actions are slow? Is it slow all the time, or only sometimes? When did it start to be slow? Did you change anything just before it started? Have you seen any alerts or error messages? Have you done anything to try to fix it? Most importantly, do you have a current backup of all data? If the answer to the last question is "no," back up now. Ask if you need guidance. Do nothing else until you have a backup.
