To delete files from your external HDD, attach it to your MBP and drag the unwanted files to trash and then empty trash.
Then you select the files that you want to transfer by 'drag and drop' to the external HDD and trash the files on your MBP.
Ciao.

Macbook pro mid 2012- Wanting to know how to install windows using bootcamp

Hello everyone,
     I'am sure this question has been asked many times but this is urgent and can't really find all the necessary steps I need in my situation. I am using a MacBook pro mid 2012 I believe. I'am taking colleges courses, and need to use visual basic. Unfortuanatly visual basic is not compatible with macs. I've done a few researchs and found out installing windows 7 with bootcamp is maybe the best solution? Probleme is I have no start up disk that came with the mac, and the cd drive is broken. I do have an external hard drive I bought a few months ago.
     What exactly do I need in order to set this up? Is it still possible without a start up disk, and by using a external hard drive? How should I get windows 7? Online or buy the disk?
     If someone could either direct me to a threaded explaining a similar case? Or point out what I need, and a few important steps to follow?
I appreciate it!
Thanks
LJ.C

if your MBP has a DVD drive (even if broken), it requires that to install windows via boot camp so you have 2 options
get your dvd drive repaired, or
see if the usb boot camp hack will work for you - http://forums.atomicmpc.com.au/index.php?showtopic=51873

I have windows 7 on my macbook pro but i want OS X how do I install it?

Reformat disk drive to HFS+
Then use the appropriate DVD to install OS X on your Mac
The reformat will erase everything off of the disk drive so backup first everything that you want to save

Use a product such as LibreOffice, the iWork applications, or Microsoft Office 2008 or newer to open them.

How can i gain access to my data on a Time Capsule after a fresh install of Mavericks? I can't access any backups through Time Machine... They appear purple/transparent, and I can't even select them to view their contents. PLEASE HELP!!!

So, I've got several thousand photos, and a decent amount of videos of my daughter, along with a lot of stuff for work stored on my Time Capsule, and now I can't access any of it. I did a fresh install of Mavericks on my MacBook Pro last week sometime, and haven't been able to figure out how to get my files back. Please Help!!! My daughter is 2 and a half, and every picture/video I have of her is locked on this thing. I was planning on making some photo/video projects fo my wife for Christmas, and now I'm definitely not going to be able to pull it off. Her birthday is at the end of January, though, so if I could have it by then, that would rule!
Basically, the bar on the right of the screen has some gray dates, which I can access (all backups after the Mavericks install), and purple dates that go all the way back to March (when I originally purchased and began using the TC) which deny me access/viewing. It's possible that I created a slightly different user name when I reset my MacBook, which I guess is most likely the cause, but I have no idea what to do now to correct it. Thanks for taking the time!

Mavericks does really nasty stuff..
Try manually mounting the sparsebundle and extract the files you want.
Yet another Pondini reference. http://pondini.org/TM/15.html
We have avoided Mavericks you see knowing that it would cause these kinds of issues..
You never ever load a new OS without doing a disk image beforehand.. TM is not reliable enough or trustworthy to be depended on.
If none of the above work..
I would get a USB drive on the computer and install Mountain Lion or whatever OS you had before you unfortunately upgraded to Mavericks.. Then use TM from that decent installation but mount the sparsebundle and choose the backup from a date well before mavericks was installed.
Once you have extracted the files.. or even done a full restore you might be able to extract the files you want.

No. The only people that can help you are at an Apple store.
Just how in the world did you forget a Boot EFI password?
Next time you buy a computer don't set a EFI/BOIS password. If you must WRITE IT DOWN so you can always refer to it.

I have an HP model Pavilion a6528p tower PC, a Belkin F6D4230-4 wireless router,
My Brother HL2140-XML laser printer is connected via
USB cable to my HP tower PC
My operating system is Windows Vista Home Premium. My
ISP is Time Warner Cable.
My wife's laptop is an Apple MacBook Pro and currently accesses the internet via the Belkin wireless router.
NOW,
I want to set up the MacBookPro to send documents wirelessly and print them on the laser printer.
All of the other threads I found deal with Windows PC's but I have one PC and one Mac.
I need instructions on how to set up the Apple MacBookPro.
Thanks.

Hey patriot80,

My keyboard is no longer lighting up on my macbook pro...does anyone know how to fix this issue manually?

My backlight on my macbook pro unibody is not working. The lights do not come on. Does anyone know how to fix this manually? Im also missing screes to the back of my computer holding it in shape. My battery needs to be replaced as well. How do i do all of this? Id also like to replace my RAM.

For the keyboard backlight:
Have you tried pressing the "lights on" F-key, that has like a half-round rays of light over a bar symbol (currently F6 on my Mac, but may be different on other models)? If it doesn't work, does anything show on the screen?
If a crossed-out symbol pops up onscreen when you press the F-key, that means that automatic keyboard lighting is enabled and the Mac thinks surroundings are too bright already. Go to System Preferences / Keyboard and uncheck the "Automatically illuminate keyboard..." item, then try again.
For the screws:
Visit www.powerbookmedic.com or www.ifixit.com and see in their Mac parts section for a replacement screw set. You will need to know your Mac's model, printed on the bottom lid, to ensure you get the correct parts for that particular computer.
For the RAM:
While in either of the two places I mentioned above, visit their How-To / DIY section for instructions on how to replace RAM on your Mac. Then visit www.crucial.com, www.corsair.com, www.kingston.com, www.otherworldcomputing.com or any other RAM maker, use their RAM advisor together with your Mac's model to select the correct RAM upgrade kit for your Mac.

Aperture 3 keeps crashing or freezing in the middle of editing a photo. I am trying to start editing a shoot I did but I can't even finish one picture without it crashing. Please help!!!

I'm trying to finish a start editing a photo shoot I did yesterday and I've been editing with Aperture for a several months without a problem until a couple of weeks ago. I think there was an update somewhere in there and not I cannot even finish one picture, as it freezes or crashes on me every single time. It does not save anything that I have already edited and I have to start over from scratch only to have it crash on me again. I have updated my ram which helped with the slowness I was experiencing back in January. I need help fast!
Thank you!

Starting oiff by giving your hardware and software setup would be a big help. Also any steps you've already taken to try and fix the problem.
If you haven't done so already have a look at Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics
Without move info it's hard to get more specific than that.

Hi Pradeep,
I would recommend you to read the IPDLC Whitepaper available on
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17441
This gives you some advise how to setup a IPDLC aka. Enterprise Extender connection to your mainframe.
Once this has been setup you may want to take a look at the HIS 2013 SDK available on
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=41557
Please with the ApplicationIntegrationStarterGuide to understand all the changes and news coming with HIS 2013 in order to write a TI SNA Link/User application.

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether further updates are required.
You should now see the App Store icon, and you now need to set up your account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

I had to do a factory restore on my laptop and I want to know how to get my original itunes accout back

I had to do a factory restore on my laptop and I want to know how to get my original itunes account back?

Depending on which country that you are in then you might be able to re-download your purchases: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 . Otherwise, have you not got a backup of your purchases and content on, for example, an external drive ?

I've just discovered that with the newest version of iTunes you can no longer delete apps you don't want. You used to be able to do so by connecting to to desktop computer and delete them. Tech support said you can't delete apps anymore. Not Good!

I've just discovered that with the newest version of iTunes you can no longer delete iPod Touch/iPhone apps you don't want. You used to be able to do so by going onto iTunes on your desktop computer and deleting them. Not Good! I just called tech support and they said that in this version there is no way to delete them. They also said there have been numerous complaints about this. You can't even delete them from your applications folder. It's as though you're being held hostage to apps you tried, but do not want.
While we're on the subject, I don't like the fact the the iPod touch comes with unistalable apps such as: Passbook, Nike & iPod, Newsstand, and Game Center. Don't want them, will never use them. Give customers the option to delete apps that we don't want. Call Apple's corporate customer care. escalation, and complain untill they fix this.

Actually,
Step 1:
Step 2.
Step 3.
Step 4.
Step 5.
One of us must be wrong.
