Can i have multiple screens on my mac book pro when connected to my iMac using a firewire cable?

What do I need to have multiple screens when I connect my iMac to my Mac book

You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the 13” white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

  • Can i have multiple monitor with my mac mini ?

    Can i have multiple monitor with my mac mini like i do with my PC ?  2 differents screens.. not mirror.

    There's lots of Mac Mini models since 2006 or so. What do you have?
    Most support two monitors but how you do it is different depending on model.
    Put this phrase into Google
            dual monitors, mac mini
    and you'll come up with the solution needed based on which MM you have.

  • If possible can i show todays date on my mac book pro screen?

    if possible can i display todays date on my mac book pro's screen

    I use my Date&Time in the MenuBar to show day-of-the-week and time with AM/PM, and flashing time separator as a check against system hangs.
    If the Calendar application is showing in the Dock, it will display the number of today's date in its Icon. As far as I can tell, you do not need to have EVER run Calendar to have it automatically update its Icon from the default 17 to the current day-number.

  • I have photoshop cc and a mac book pro. I cannot access my photos from photoshop. I can go to iPhoto and click edit to edit them in photoshop, but photoshop won't open them. I want to do a collage, so I need to get to more than one photo.

  • TS3477 How can I view movies, pictures, etc from Mac Book Pro (bought in he States) on a Sony TV(in Europe). Do you have change the settings on the Mac to comply with the european TV ?

    I have a Mac book pro ( 7,1  version ) bought in the US and want to see some videos, pictures and movies on a Sony TV with HDMI connection (in Europe).
    When connecting both the pc and the tv, I get on the tv the opening screen of a mac book pro but although a movie is playing on the pc it does not show on the tv. Do I have to change something in the displays on the system preference screen ?
    Thanks for helping out.

    By 'opening screen' do you mean the spiral galaxy desktop?  If so, then, with the TV connected to the MBP, open System Preferences ➜ Displays ➜ Arrangement.  You will see an image of two screens.  At the top of the smaller of the two screens in the image is a small bar, this represents the menu bar at the top of your display.  Drag this small bar to the top of the larger of the two screens in the image.  The menu bar and dock will now appear on the TV which is now the primary display and all the action will take place there.

  • Screen on my Mac Book Pro goes out randomly when I touching trackpad.

    The screen on my Mac Book Pro goes out randomly when I touch my trackpad.  Every time the screen shuts off, I have to restart my computer so the screen will turn on again and it's driving me nuts.
    Does anyone have any idea why this is happening and a solution?
    Thanks

    You can blank the monitor using those keys, that's likely what you did, it's a feature.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You already have got OS X Mavericks installed (the Keynote, Pages and Numbers versions available in the Mac App Store are only compatible with OS X Mavericks).
    You have got a Late 2013 MacBook Pro, which uses a special OS X Mavericks version that is not available in the Mac App Store. This is the reason why the Mac App Store is not compatible with OS X Mavericks even if you are using it. This will be fixed in OS X 10.9.1, when your Mac uses the same Mavericks version as all other Macs.
    Until then, you can reinstall OS X through OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

  • Can we download Action Voip Software on Mac Book Pro?

    Can we download Action Voip Software on Mac Book Pro?

    You can download absolutely anything to the MBP, but if you want to run Action VOIP on it, you'll have to install MS Windows to run it in.

  • Can't get WIFI on my new Mac Book Pro

    Setting up my new Mac Book Pro and on the WiFI page, I see and select my network name.  Enter password and it hangs.  Try other networks and get same result.  I have two iPads and they work fine as do other devices. I thought I maybe maxed out on my router so I disconnected two iPads from the network and the Mac still hangs after I enter the password.  I know the the PW is right cause I can reconnect my iPads.  DSL router is a Century Q1000. Does the Mac Book Pro require a different WiFi router?

    i can't find idvd on my new mac book pro? I've looked everywhere.
    A sad loss to bundled software, with, I presume, their thinking being that optical media is soon to be a thing of the past. Superdrives have been done away with in the newer MacAirs and MacBook Pros and will eventually disappear in all devices. Downloading Apps, updated, visual and audio media, etc. will all take place via wireless transfer, as with SmartPhones and Tablets. Therefore who will need a program that makes great DVDs?
    Me for one. Still have iDVD on my iLife '11 DVD and will keep it until all my Macs are no longer supported, which could be next year or next decade, who would know. So as babowa says, get a DVD while they are still available.
    Good Luck
