How do i connect my macbook pro retina display to lcd projector?

Depends on what type of video connection the projector accepts. Most common would be DVI, VGA or HDMI. Review this article for more information: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3235

    Unfortunately, that is not possible. The computer only can "output" your display image, it cannot "input" an image from an external computer and display it on your MacBook's retina display.

  • How do I downgrade my MacBook Pro Retina Display from Mountain Lion to Lion?

    I have a brand new MacBook Pro Retina Display that came with OS X 10.8.1.
    I´m an audio engineer so I work with Pro Tools, tons of plug-ins etc... Some of my software doesn't work with Mountain Lion just yet. Some of them haven't upgraded, and some of them I need to purchase a latest version, which is not cheap at all in the audio world. So I'd like to hang on to Lion for a while until I decide to upgrade everything to Mountain Lion.
    I've seen other posts about this -> https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4148927?start=0&tstart=0
    This one in particular managed to make the downgrade. However, he used to have OS X 10.7.4 in his retina display when he bought it. Which is something that doesn't happen in my case.
    If you read the other post you can see that several methods have been tried.
    Is it really safe to completely erase my hard drive and to a clean install of Lion? Will it work perfectly fine on my Retina Display?
    I went to one Apple Store, and the guy asked around and told me they haven't done it before, so since they didn't know whether it was going to work they couldn't do it. He told me to do it myself and if something happened to my laptop, "just bring it in and we'll reinstall the stock OS X again."
    Since the laptop is brand new I don't mind erasing everything, all my stuff is already backed up.
    So help me please?

    The short of it is if it came with 10.8.1 you can't install an OS less than that.

  • What hbmi cord do I need to connect my Macbook Pro retina display to a Windows desktop?

    I'm trying to connect my Windows desktop to my Macbook Pro retina dispay so i can transfer CD's. ALthough I dont know what cord to get.

    Your post is a little confusing. HDMI is for connecting video, like hooking your Mac to a TV. It sounds like you want to transfer files. If you have a wireless network, just share the folder with the music on your Windows machine and you should be able to copy it to your Mac.

  • How to get iDVD on macbook pro retina display without buying disk

    I just bought a new MacBook Pro and I was wondering how I can get iDVD on it without having to buy iLife again.

    If you already have iDVD 7 on an install disk use that. If not, you will have to find iLife 8 or later on eBay or Amazon.

  • How to install CS5 on macbook pro retina display?? I have the original CD but mac doesn't have cd

    I can't find the PS CS5 to install the trial anyways... so i need a solution

    You will need a computer to "burn" the CD image onto a USB/thumb drive. I say burn, not copy, because you cannot simply copy the disk image. There are multiple Free OpenSource programs that can copy a disk image onto a thumb drive, so I will not suggest one. Burning an image, rather than copying will delete files on a thumb drive just as it would with a rewritable disk.
    If it is an IMG and not an ISO image, I believe you may be able to copy it directly to a thumb drive and mount the image to install the program. You may also mount an ISO that has been copied if you have the correct program, but I would not advise it.
    All of this should permitted within the license areement for the most restrictively licensed programs, so long as no copy is left on the computer used to copy the image, you keep the CD only as a backup, you are only using the copy to install a program for which you have a license, and you only install the program on one computer that you own and control.
    I am not an attorney and do not work for Adobe, so you should read the license before following my advice to be sure.

  • HDMI failure on MacBook Pro Retina Display

    When I connect my MacBook Pro Retina Display (late Aug 2012) with HDMI cable to my HD TV their both screens turn blue and the Mac needs reboot. I used that same TV with my 3 yo MacBook Pro to watch over the HDMI (with some extra cabling) and it was fine. Why is it happening this now with the New Retina dispaly?

    Hey, I have the same problem too. It is making me angry. Both my thunderbolt outputs work, but the hdmi freezes both screens. I then have to shut the computer off by holding the power button and re-boot. Have you found a solution? I NEED my hdmi port. Please get back to me. Thanks!

  • How can I open Adobe Bridge CS6 in high resolution on my MacBook Pro Retina display?

    How can I open Adobe Bridge CS6 in high resolution on my MacBook Pro Retina display? When I click Get Info, the "Open in Low Resolution" box is marked and locked. How can I unmark this box? I currently run 10.9.1. I can open Adobe Photoshop CS6 in high resolution without any problem. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    There is no such thing. In CS6 only PS itself is Retina compatible. You would have to use CC for full Retina support.

  • How do I connect my MacBook Pro to an LCD TV (with HDMI and S-Video ports)?

    How do I connect my MacBook Pro to an LCD TV (with HDMI and S-Video ports)?  I assume I would need to use the DVI to Video adapter that came with my computer to connect to my LCD tv.  I'm just not sure which port I should use on the TV.  The HDMI port is being used for digital cable.
    Also, does anyone know if this can be done wirelessly? 

    For a 2010+ MBP you can connect with a Displayport to HDMI, which will include Audio.
    With older MBP you will need a displayport to HDMI, if you want audio to the actually TV, then you will need to get a cable with either digital out from MBP to the HDMI, or USB audio mixed into the HDMI
