Can i play The sims 4 on macbook pro 13 inch

i'm going to buy a new macbook 13 inch with retina display,and i really want to know can i play this game on macbook? and how about the new macbook? can it play the sims4?

Mik3OH,
if the fans go like crazy, it’s because of the heat that results from running compute-intensive software. The fans activate to expel the heat from within your MacBook Pro, so that your electronic components don’t get cooked. If you want to run demanding software, then you absolutely do not want to prevent your fans from running — unless frying your MacBook Pro is your goal. You’ll also want to make sure that when you run such software, that nothing blocks the airflow into and out of the MacBook Pro — so play such games with your MacBook Pro on a hard flat surface, rather than on a soft cushioned surface.

How can I play music on my macbook pro (OSX Lion) through a Pioneer receiver. I've connected them with a mini display port to HDMI cable with audio support bought at the Apple Store, but there's no sound coming through. thanks

How can I play music on my macbook pro (OSX Lion) through a Pioneer receiver? I've connected them with a mini display port to HDMI cable with audio support bought at the Apple Store, but there's no sound coming through. There are 4 HDMI-in ports on the receiver - BD, DVD, DVR/BDR and audio. In my system preferences for sound, the receiver doesn't show up as an output option. Can anyone please advise. (ps, this is my first time posting a question, so I hope I can find your answers!) thanks, JP downunder

For sound, try the audio output port and connecting to the RCA audio input ports on your Pioneer receiver. Use something like this:

Can't play MIDI files on MacBook Pro 10.7.5

PLEASE help! I'm an old boomer and not too tech-savvy (know enough to get all messed up!).
I can't play MIDI files on MacBook Pro 10.7.5, and it's driving me CRAZY. I'm trying to play files from this website: http://www.hymntime.com/tch/ (just select a song under the "Titles" link), using Safari and/or Firefox browser -- to no good end!
What can I buy or add on that will enable the playing of MIDI files??
Thank you!

I had heard that MIDI worked in Lion, but don't currently have it to test.
There's a somewhat involved way to get it working described here, or you may be able to download the files & play them locally.

Can we play bluray disc on macbook pro 2011?

i am keen to know that can we play bluray movies on macbook pro??

No.
Different format... http://www.blu-ray.com/info/
"While current optical disc technologies such as DVD, DVD±R, DVD±RW, and DVD-RAM rely on a red laser to read and write data, the new format uses a blue-violet laser instead, hence the name Blu-ray."

Can I play games on my MacBook Pro by using an external graphics card and using windows via a software called "Parallels Desktop" or do I have to use Boot Camp (I have both installed)

Can I use Windows Parallel to play games? I mean will it not get enough power? Like I clearly remember that I read some where one my system that the Paralels is getting only 1 GB of my ram. I have the mid 2012 MacBook Pro, the $1500 one.

You shouldn't use Parallels to pay games. If you want to play games you need to install Windows via Bootcamp so that it has access to all the resources available.

How can I play The Sims Complete Collection without PowerPC applications being supported?

So I downloaded Mavericks a while ago after my friend told me it was a really good idea. I hated almost everything about it to start with and since then I've found I don't hate everything but still a lot of things. I was on Snow Leopard before and, even though it was old, it was lovely; I knew where I was with it and everything worked.
Today I went to play The Sims Complete Collection for the first time since downloading Mavericks a few months ago and it told me 'You can't open the application "The Sims Complete because PowerPC applications are no longer supported." I am SO ANGRY. I would quite happily buy the game again but they don't make them anymore so they'd all have the same system requirements. What's most frustrating is that I sold all my original edition Sims games that I'd been collecting for years to buy Complete Collection for Mac so I could still play the game I've played since the week it was released. Basically I need someone to tell me how to do one of these things;
1- Downgrade to Snow Leopard again. Bit extreme but I like the Sims a lot. I have the original discs that came with my macbook if that helps at all.
2- Don't think it can be done but is there a way I could have my Sims Complete Collection on my EA origins app? Like all my Sims 3 are.
3- Make PowerPC Applications playable
4- Basically anything that makes my game playable!

Izzy118,
The short answer is that you will not be able to run Sims on your Mac unless a OSX Lion update is released.
Have a look at this thread on the Sims forum about a patch for Lion.
The long answer is that you can try to install Fusion and Snow Leopard Server, but at a cost.
Fusion is not free. Snow Leopard Server is several hundred dollars.
It will be less expensive to buy an old Mac just for your games.

If I buy an external hard drive for my new MacBook Pro with the retina display, can I play The Sims 3 on it?

Hi!
I recently bought the new MacBook Pro with the new retina display, but since it does not have a dvd/cd drive, I was going to buy an external one. I think I will be able to use it to watch dvds, but can I also play the computergame The Sims 3 on it? If not is there anything else I can do?
Thank you!

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You can try formatting the external drive on your eMac using Disk Utility and choosing a well-known format > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU1.html. It's quite possible that your new iMac would be able to read it, but first, tell us which formats Disk Utility lists.
If you have those songs in iTunes, simply go to Music folder and copy the iTunes folder to the external drive. Then, connect it to the iMac and copy the iTunes folder to Music folder.
If they are not in iTunes, copy your songs to the external drive. Then, connect it to your new iMac, open iTunes and drag the songs into it

Can I play X plane on MacBook pro 13-inch: 2.5GHz?

Please answer me if I can play xplane on macbook pro, i would like to buy a laptop for a flight sim, can i download some good scenery ang good planes?

It won't plug both spots. To get 16 GB you will have to buy 2 sticks, one for each slot.
Apple only recommends and will suport 8 and recommends installing in pairs - so 2 slots of 4 GB each. You can always try the 2 slots of 8 and see if they will work. I would recommend ordering from crucial direct. They are one of the better memory companies around and have a website at crucial.com.
You shouldn't have any issues as the maximum non-Apple supported config is 16 GB.
Good luck.

How can I play sound from my MacBook Pro through my iMac?

I have a MacBook pro which I am looking to use for only iTunes or Spotify for the time being but the iMac built in speakers are better.
I am internet sharing from an ethernet on my iMac and the Macbook pro is connected to the shared network.
Can I play music from Spotify on my macbook pro but out of my iMac speakers?
Thanks
James

Can you play blu ray on MacBook Pro

I have a MacBook Pro and I am wondering if I can play Blu ray movies on my MacBook?

Of course you can...
I bought this off of amazon.com... Samsung SE-506BB. Took me a while to understand the difference between AB and BB, found that BB is the latest version with a few bugs resolved.
Get Macgo from http://www.macblurayplayer.com... Download the trail version... I have been playing Blurays using this...
enjoy
Thanks & Regards
Techno.
Forgot to add... Unlike OWC, Samsung doesnt need an external power supply... Good for carrying around...

Can we play bluray disc in macbook pro

I am planning to buy a macbook pro. Can we play blue ray disc on the macbook. If no, is there any other mac model which plays bluray

Dear Mr. Srinivasan
1st-this forum is for Mac Pro (the big desktop Machine,not portable)-a common mistake.
2nd-no. due to licencing/technical issues and stubbornness on Apple's part, that's the answer. You can try with VLC or 3rd party software, plus an external Blu-Ray drive, but out of the box, no.
all the best to you
