How do I make the screen brighter on macbook pro

The brightness is turned all the way up on my MacBook Pro, but the screen still seems to dim out.  Any ideas on how to get it brighter again?

  • 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 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 do i clean the screen of my macbook with retina display?

    how do i clean the screen of my macbook with retina display?

    To clean the screen on your MacBook, MacBook Pro, or MacBook Air, first shut down the computer and unplug the power adapter. Dampen the included cleaning cloth with just water and wipe the screen. Do not spray liquid directly onto the screen.
    Important: The bottom case of the MacBook (13-inch, Late 2009) and MacBook (13-inch, Mid 2010) uses a soft nonslip material. Use a 3M Gray Microfiber or soft dye-free, lint-free cloth to clean the bottom case.

  • The screen on my MacBook Pro Retina has horizontal lines and has a brightness flicker every few seconds since june 2013 upgrade of airport utility.

    The screen on my MacBook Pro Retina has horizontal lines and a flicker every few seconds this happened after  this weeks Airport Utility 6.3 upgrade.

    Hi John,
    I would take your machine into a Apple service center. Its highly likely a hardware issue. The most likely issue being the display has failed. If there is no external damage to the machines display they will replace the whole display under warranty for you.

  • 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.

    You simply take out and look on the ram chip(s), the manufacturer's name should be all over the chip(s).
    Not very helpful. Micron / Crucial makes maybe 2000 RAM types. If all you have is the RAM and the label you may be thin on luck.
    Reading the manual +*that came with the mac*+ is one resource, regrettably rarely used before posting here.

  • How do I check the Specs on my Macbook pro ?

    How do I check the Specs on my Macbook pro to make sure i have what i ordered? THe last time I wanted the SATA 7200rpm but they sent me the 5400. How do I see this on my mac? can't seem to find it.

    Here is something i copied from another forum site that could answer your question-
    Look in your "System Profiler", you can find it using Spotlight or looking for it in the Utilities folder, which is in your Applications folder.
    This will give you the model number, which you will then have to find online (probably using Google) to find out what speed that particular model number is.
    Then again, someone might have an easier answer.
    "That's exactly what I did. My MacBook Pro has a Seagate Momentus ST9160823AS Drive in it. Running that model number, it shows a 7200 RPM speed."

  • I have a very tiny, fuzzy black speck on the screen of my Macbook Pro 15".

    I have a very tiny, fuzzy black speck on the screen of my Macbook Pro 15". It doesn't resemble dead pixels I've encountered in the past (it is only visible behind a white or brightly colored background), and I'm positive it isn't sitting on the surface. The computer is only a year and a half old and my software is up to date.

    Hi austinbread,
    It is hard to tell exactly what your issue with the MacBook Pro’s display is, but it is possible that there is a pixel anomaly. See this article for further information -

  • I have a MS Office for Mac CD, how do I install the software onto my MacBook Pro (Retina Display)?

    I have a MS Office for Mac CD, how do I install the software onto my MacBook Pro (Retina Display)? It does not have a CD drive.

    If all else fails, try this.  i used to do it all the time before. might or might not work with the new office.
    if you have access to another computer with a cd/dvd rom, copy the entire contents of the cd on a thumb drive.
    insert the thumb drive in your MB and do the install from there.
    However, if you have the newer version of MS Office, Bandit's suggestion is much better.
