Am i able to add extra storage to my mac book pro?

Hello
I was just wondering if anyone knew if i am able to add extra storage to my mac as its full all ready! I have tried looking on apple website but was getting a little confused!
Any help would be very much appreciated!
Thank you in advance

If you have a retina you're going to have a hard time but one the retina and unibody it's possible with a unibody its relatively easy with a retina its hard. If you have unibody it's easier but if you want something simple and easy that takes no hardware skill I suggest a Nifty Mini Drive. Also you might state what kind of macbook pro you have the first MBP an rMBP or a unibody MBP http://minidrive.bynifty.com

Thanks for your reply. This video was recorded by my own professional camera, Sony PMW EX 3, two years back. But I am neither a professional cameraman nor an editor. I am just like a beginner in both. I didnt have space in my storage device, so I just copied all my clips, thinking I can edit it latter, without recompressing or editing or whatever I should have done it at that point of time. Now I need to edit it and use it in my profession. I am very upset. Please help me in going step by step to get it in FCP X for editing. Also I would like to know, do I need to buy the Compressor 4 for any reason. I dont mind in buying, if you think it is going to be useful for some reason. Thank you very much in anticipation for any kind of proper guidance.

How do i add a display to my mac book pro

Ok I just upgraded my mac book pro OS X 10.8.5 and now when I look under System Preferances and under Displays all I see is the Mac Book built in display I used to see a pictagram of monitors (you could put the monitor to the right or left of the mac book) Now their are none and I used to be able to conect to my TV via the dongel that plugs into the side of the Mac book. So now How do I conect to a Monitor?
Thanks for any help!!

First thing you should do is call BofA and suspend your online account and/or change your password.
The correct IP address for BofA is
171.161.148.173
If you paste this into your browser URL field (where it says "apple.com http//discussions.apple.com.... now) you will go directly to the BofA site, no poison in between from a lot of possible issues.
1: Google poisoned
2: DNS poisoned
3: Router DNS poisoned.
I doubt very much it's your Mac, not that I've playing favorite, it's because Mac's are very highly secure.
Once you have gone to the correct site by entering the IP address into your URL field and pressing enter, bookmark it and use that from now on.
Also you should see a HTTPS in the URL when you log in, that means you have a secure connection.

I can't add printers to my new mac book pro with retina display

I am trying to set up my HP wireless printer to my new mac book pro with retina display. I can't get it to work! I have down loaded the latest driver for my printer, and when I go into the printer area and try and add the printer, nothing shows up and it won't let me even add it. I can't seem to connect my mac directly to my printer either as I must need a different cord as there does not seem to be a port for the "phone like jack" that I could fall back on with my old Mac. My printer prints great so I hate to just buy a new printer, but I can't get this to work. My wireless router is located in the basement, far away from where I keep my printer so it also makes it hard to rest everything. I even bought the blue tooth adaptor for the HP printer thinking that would solve it all, and nope! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have made some progress.... I can print wirelessly from my printer now, but I can't set the printer itself to be wireless. I had to move my printer downstairs to where my router is...which is not that convient. I printed up the page you asked about....and as expected, it says it is off line and there is no IP address. So now I need to figure out how to make my printer itself wireless. I did download the HP driver I needed...but I can't access it to do anything else. It seems l like I am missing a step... or I need to hook up my computer itself to the printer to help get the printer to be wirelss, but I can't hook it up because there is no port for me to do that (no port that looks like a phone jack). I am guessing I would need a different type of cord, but I am not sure what kind of cord that would be! Ugh!

I am not able to enter the password and also can not able to open any application in my Mac Book Pro;to log in I have to force shutdown.

Hi
My Mac book pro is behaving strangely. I am not able to enter the Password and can't open any application/folder. To log-in I have to give forced shutdown. When ever I try to open any application the screen turns grey (some times) and the window pop up " --------- quit unexpectedly".
I updated the OS too from the available updates but the problem persists. I have reasonable amont of data in it, which definitely I do not want to loose.
Kindly let me know how can I come out of the above scenario?

Hi Susan,
In that case I will recommend that you consult a local technician/IT team and see if there is some network connectivity issue with your machine.

Can i connect my time capsule to my hdtv for use as an extra display for my mac book pro?

I want to use my hdtv as a display wirelessly. Can one connect their time capsule to the tv?

1. Can my TC handle "dual band" wifi or not? As it's 3 years old, I'm not sure the spec is sufficient.
They have been dual band since gen2.. yours is gen4 or at worst gen3.
2. Is the TC likely to provide better performance than the BT Home Hub router, as the Apple store suggest?
Impossible to say.. but easy to test.. simply plug the TC into the BT router in bridge mode and use it with setup to create a wireless network.. that is the way I would suggest anyway.
3. Will the BT wifi extender still work if the TC is the main router? BT aren't sure, hence asking here. "Trial and error" will take hours and because of the wifi issues in my house, can be frustrating.
Sorry this is out of my perview.. I can suggest it will be poor.. apple do not use standard settings for extend wireless.. and if it is universal repeater they also behave poorly.. Have you thought of using EOP adapters.. very popular in the UK and tend to work much better than wireless.
4. Would the BT wifi extender communciate with the TC or the BT Home Hub router?
As suggested above.. leave the BT as the main router and plug the TC bridged into it.. you can then use both..
simply set the wireless names different and keep the channels apart.
For 2.4ghz there are only 3 non-overlapping channels.. 1, 6, 11 or 13 as alternative in UK.
For 5ghz there are lots more but the lower channels work better.. so 36-48 depending on regs in the UK.

I was able to install Adobe CS3 on my MAC BOOK Pro

Thanks for everyone's help. What I did to install CS3 on my Macbook pro running leopard was to uninstall partial install, and manually delete Bridge from my documents folder / or library folder...I forget. and I power cycled the laptop. Then CS3 installed properly.
Thanks again to all those who helped.

Thanks for the clarification on the terms. I consider myself proficent at my computer, but not exactly in its inner-workings! I have 8 GB of memory installed.
I am still confused as to why I do not have any space for the program. This is the exact error message I get: "There is not enough free space on Macintosh HD disk. The Print Shop 2 application requires about 550 MB to be installed. Free some disk space and try again."
Thank you again for your help.

In addition to installing Windows in Boot Camp so that it will run instead of Mac OS X, you can also install Windows as a Virtual Machine so that Windows and the Mac OS can run at the same time. To use a Virtual Machine, you'd need software such as VMware Fusion, Parallels, or Virtual Box.
Note, however, that you may have some difficulty finding Windows 7 for sale. You may be stuck with Windows 8.1.

Is there any way I can add extra storage to hold my Newsstand magazines?

Is there any way I can add extra storage to hold my Newsstand magazines?

Thanks for that. It is what I expected.
There are lots of WIFI and flash drives that you can plug in but, as far as I can see, they are only useful for holding stuff pre-loaded from a PC/MAC, and can only be used via a special app.
Let bus look forward to the day that Apple give us a memory extension socket.

Add Extra Storage

Hi
Does anyone know if there is an option to add extra cloud storage to Creative Cloud Team?
We'd like to see options that would go beyond the 100Go per license.

Icloud storage space for Mac book

Will I get any extra icloud storage space , when I buy mac book pro. I am already using iPhone and ipad, so my 5GB icloud storage is almost finished. I know creating one more icloud I'd can give 5GB more , but I don't want too much ID and password.

The 5GB is tied to the account, not the devices using it, so no matter how many devices you have logged into it you still only have 5GB free for the one account. As said, you can purchase more: additional 10GB, $20 p.a., 20 GB, $40 p.a., 50GB $100 p.a.

Can I add my mac book pro onto my Windows based network?

Hi everyone! I just got my Mac Book Pro a couple of weeks ago and let me say, its my first mac computer ever. I love it! I have a windows wireless network, and I can connect to it wireless with no problem. The only thing I can figure out is how to use my printer connected to my windows machine. I dont know if you can add a network printer on a mac like you can on a pc. Can someone help me out?
Thanks in advance.

If your priter is a network printer then it should be connected via ethernet or wifi to your network with an ip address....yes mac computers can print using network printers..
now you said your printer is attached to your computer which means you do no have it on the network... you may have it shared to your workgroup.
mac's are able to connect to xp workgroups (not sure about vista).. i will attach the link to how to attach a mac to your windows workgroup..(its pretty much attaching yourself to the network with user name and pw)

Can i upgrade the flash storage of my 15inch mac book pro retina?

I have a 2014 15' Mac Book Pro Retina, and its storage capacity is 251 GB Flash Storage, I in architecture school so i run parallel and some other software to get my work done. I was wondering if it was possible to install or have apple install a bigger storage unit to that i can get that extra space i need for my educational needs.

Apple does not upgrade internal flash storage of MacBook Pros after purchase. Not many other companies that have them because it is a very specialized part, but the one I know doesn't seem to have one available yet for 2014 MacBook Pros:
OWC Aura SSD Upgrades
Of course, it's best to do so after your MacBook Pro warranty is over.

Am i able to add extra storage to my mac book pro?
