Can I get my macbook on to a windows network?

Hi, I was wondering if i could use my mid 2009 macbook on my dads windows 7 home network. He has the network already set up, and has enabled printer sharing and some of the other options. I wanted to know because it would be very handy if i could print documents and other various items from my macbook, without putting it on a usb drive and crossing it over, and my dad does not like me using his computer very much .
Thanks, Travis

  • How can i get a macbook with the configration i want from apple retail store so that i can benefit from tax free service at the airport ?

    hi all, i just want to know how can i get a MacBook pro with the configuration i want from apple retail store (in Munich) and not by order it online because in this case i will not be able to benefit from Global blue service for tax free from the airport when i leave Germany. 
    thanks in advance.

    You should have probably found out more specifically from the Apple Store just how you could do it online. The obvious solution is to order it from the Apple Danish website store, but I don't know if they ship internationally.

    Where can I get a MacBook Pro retina 13 with Arabic/English keyboard.?

    you have to go to Apple store online then you'll have to go to customize your MacBook Pro, there you choose Arabic keyboard, and it'll automatically contains both languages English and Arabic....... because the Latin letters must have for any computer to be used on email's website and etc. etc.

  • How can I get my MacBook wi-fi address ?

    Hello
    I need help !! How can I get my MacBook wi-fi address ?! Because am trying to register in a local network and I need my wi-fi address to add it .
    Thanks

    Hamed Rashed,
    I'm not sure if you typed the proper term, I think it should be "MacBook MAC Address"? If this is what you mean then just go to Apple > System Preferences > Network > WiFi > Advanced > Hardware
    Cheers.

  • Bought a NuPower replacement battery, but can't get my MacBook to see it.

    Hi Everyone!
    Bought a NuPower replacement battery and installed it.  Rebooted and the fans are running at full tilt.  Did a SMC reset and a PRAM zap.  Shut down.  Restarted and the battery icon still has an X in it (no batteries available).  Fans are running fast as well (again).

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Try downloading the latest drivers and updates, including a 'critical update' for OS X 10.7 'Lion' directly from HP:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=219&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&sw _lang=&product=5063582#N179
    If the direct link above doesn't work, you can navigate your way through about three layers of HP menus, starting at hp.com, then Printers, selecting your Photosmart model, and eventually reaching Software and Driver downloads, and OS X.

    Am i missing something here ?    It's telling me Premiere Pro is using the aggregate audio device,
    though not sure what that means ?
    thanks!

    If your model number isn't showing up in Printer Setup then you need to install the drivers. After you do that you should be able to setup your printer and print OK. Make sure Appletalk is checked in Airport in your Network Pref Pane.

  • How can i get my macbook pro too stay on and not sleep when lid is closed?

    how can i get my macbook pro too stay on and not sleep when lid is closed?

    If the machine is asleep, lid closed, and you plug in to an external monitor and an external USB keyboard, the machine will wake, anbd reconfigure the screen resolution for the external monitor, Once it has made this configuration change, you can open the lid and it will continue to address only the external monitor.  At least that's how my early MacBook Pro unibody 13" works. It seems to run a bit cooler this way. It gets quite toasty with the lid closed while doing anything demanding and you are more likely to hear the fan come on.  I have not seen any temps that would cause alarm, but I do get a high speed (6000 rpm), noisy fan sometimes with the lid closed, .
    If you operate in the open-lid, external monitor only mode, if you deactivate the monitor for any reason, when it reactivates it will be running both screens, with all the navigation hassles this entails, so I generally set it not to deactivate the screen when in this mode.
    Thus I agree with those who say that some of the cooling air is drawn in around the keyboard, the difference in cooling performance is observable.  If you activate istat pro, get the computer hot running in clamshell mode, and open the lid, you can watch the CPU temp drop by a few degrees C within a couple minutes.  It isn't a huge difference, but enough the lower the fan speeds.

  • New airport: can't get my macbook or my imac to join my wireless automatically, my other stuff still joins without problems but i have to join manually with the book and the imac ?? I've tried all the settings and every thing else I can think of.....

    Running on Lion, never had a problem before until the old airport died and I replaced it.

    try connecting the device in _*recovery mode*_, then restore from your backup.
    also, make sure [_*Apple Mobile Device Service*_|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1567] is installed and started.

  • Were can I get either MacBook Pro or Mac-air with English united state style keyboard, in Japan

    Were can I get either MacBook Pro or Mac-air with English united state style keyboard, in Japan

    Hi Melophage,
    Thank you very much for your response. I have a similar question to the one Abraham has, but applied to an offline Apple Store, say, the one in Ginza.
    I will have little time in Tokyo, and would like to get a MacBookPro with a US or Int'l keyboard (with or without Hiragana, I don't really care as long as there are English letters on the keyboard) off the shelf from an offline store. However, I keep getting conflicting responses from both within Apple and on forums.
    There's an option to get a US keyboard when ordering from Apple online, and that's fine. How about the in-store pickup option? Is there one, or will there be a MacBookPro with an English keyboard if I just show up at a store one day soon?
    I would greatly appreciate an answer if you have one. Thanks in advance!
