I purchased a Macbook Pro on Nov 2 2011 which was pre-installed with Lion and I'm trying to install Snow Leopard on it. It won't recognise my SL Install Disc at all and just hangs so I wiped the drive and attempted to start up from a bootable SL memory stick. I got an audible alarm from the Macbook Pro which would only stop when I restarted the computer. I had to re-install Lion from a Time Machine back up via the internal recovery disk. I'm pretty sure that late 2011 MBP will not take SL but I'm waiting for a Firewire 400 to 800 cable to arrive so I can try to wipe the internal drive entirely and install via Target Disk mode. I'm not hopeful but I gotta try as I need Snow Leopard to run Pro Tools and other programs. If only I'd bought it before October 24th this wouldn't be happening!!!!!!!!!!

    iTunes includes an option to transfer content that was purchased from the iTunes Store from an iPod or iPhone, but this is for content that was purchased from the iTunes Store only.
    Without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
    Any iTunes content transferred to your iPhone that was acquired elsewhere besides the iTunes Store will be lost.
    This is why maintaining a backup is so important - including your iTunes library along with all your other important data stored on an external drive used for backup purposes only, or stored on some other media such as CD or DVD.
    It isn't a matter of if, but when your hard drive has a partial or complete failure since none last forever - this can happen with a brand new hard drive.

  • HT1296 How can I transfer all my photos from my Ipad Mini to my new MacBook Pro

    How can I transfer all my photos from my Ipad Mini to my new MacBook Pro
    I am facing problem while I connect to my iPad mini with MacBook Pro , it only sync photo from its taken by and from it camera roll only. It doesn't sync all the images... Like my all albums. All photos in library....

    To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.
    You should also be able to copy albums that you've created directly on the iPad via apps such as Simple Transfer (though I haven't tried it)

    What problems specifically? If you have a problem you should start your own thread and explain the problem in detail.
    External USB devices including hard drives and DVD work fine on the new Macbook Pros.

    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.

  • How can you take a photo from one event and put it in another, without dragging to desktop and dragging back into iPhoto and moving it to the event folder I want it in.

    As the title says I need help on how to take a photo from one event and put it in another, without dragging to desktop and dragging back into iPhoto and moving it to the event folder I want it in. Right now when I want to move a picture from one event to another I drag it to my desktop then delete it from iPhoto then I drag it back into iPhoto and put where I want it.An example would be taking a photo from the Christmas event and add it to a specific person event.  Can I do that within the events section without all the dragging. Also is there anyway I can remove duplicates from iPhoto without going through each and every file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Apple doesn't make it easy to do what you want.  However, here's how I do it. 
    Select the photo you want to move and create a new Event for it via the Event ➙ Create Event menu option.
    In the Event mode select the new Event with the one picture and drag it onto the Event you want to move the photo to.

  • Can I use my old g5 tower as a scratch disk for my Macbook Pro for Photoshop?

    I just made the laptop jump away from towers and am a little shocked by how much difference a smaller scratch disk makes. Can I use my old tower as a scratch disk to help out my new Macbook Pro?
    Any other tweaks I can do to speed up large files in Photoshop? Should I bump up the ram usage by Photoshop above the recommened percentage?

    Hm. It sounds like you know what you are talking about, and apparently I don't. I was just going to plug in a firewire cable to both and hoped that magically scratch disk would appear as an option for my tower.
    Cant I somehow boot the tower as using as a hardrive only? Or applesharing or something else?

  • How do I transfer files from my old laptop with a broken screen to my new macbook pro?

    I recently purchased a new macbook pro and would like to tranfers files such as music and documents from my old sony vaio laptop. The problem is that the screen on my old laptop is broken so the image is distorted and I cannot see a thing, which means I probably wont be able to use Windows Migration Assistant. Does anyone know of another easy way I can transfer my files to my new macbook pro? Thanks

    Manually migrating
    If you prefer to move your files one by one between a Mac and a PC, consider the following options. Some are easier than others, and some require more computer experience, equipment, or resources.
    Generally, you can migrate your files to the Mac by:
    Copying the files from your PC onto external or removable storage media and then use that media in your Mac to transfer the files to your hard drive.
    Sending files over the Internet. If you have an email account, just send the files to yourself from the PC and then pick the mail up on your Mac and save the attached files to your Mac hard drive. You may want to compress larger groups of files first.
    Connecting the Mac and PC together through a network to use file sharing to move the files.
    Tip: If you're moving files over manually, you'll save yourself some time down the road if you organize your files during the process from the get-go. For example:
    Move your PC My Pictures photos to your Mac’s Home folder Pictures folder
    Move your PC My Music song files to the Music folder on your Mac
    Move your PC My Videos files to the Movies folder on your Mac
    Move PC text and PDF files to your Mac Documents folder
    Export PC contacts to vCards, and import them into your Mac Contacts
    Use external or removable media
    If your Windows PC has a CD or DVD drive, or a USB port:
    Copy the files from the PC to an external hard drive or storage device, then reconnect the drive to your Mac and transfer the files to your Mac hard drive.
    Burn files to a CD or DVD on your PC, and then use the discs in your Mac to transfer the files to your Mac hard drive.
    If you don't have many files, transfer them over email, create zip files for larger groups of files. Mail your files from the PC to yourself, and then pick them up using Mail on the Mac.
    Use a network connection
    Connect your old PC to your Mac—either directly or over a network. Before you start moving files over, you should install any Mac software that is needed to open the files. Once you're done, use one of the following migration methods:
    Direct connect
    To move files by connecting your Mac directly to your PC (if both have an Ethernet port):
    Connect your Mac to your PC using a standard Ethernet cable.
    Make sure that both computers are turned on.
    In the Finder on your Mac, choose Connect to Server from the Go menu to open the window.
    Type your PC's network address in the Server Address text box using one of these formats:
    smb://DNSname/ShareName
    smb://IPaddress/ShareName
    Click Connect.
    Follow the onscreen instructions to enter your PC's workgroup name, user name, password, and the volume or folder you wish to access.
    Your PC volume should appear in the Shared section of your Finder window on your Mac.
    Open the volume and drag and drop files directly from it to anywhere on your Mac.
    When finished, click the eject button to right of your PC volume to unmount it.
    Network connection
    To move files by connecting your Mac to your PC on the same network:
    Make sure that both computers are turned on and connected to the Internet.
    In the Finder on your Mac, choose Connect to Server from the Go menu to open the window.
    Type your PC's network address in the Server Address text box using this format: smb://ServerName/ShareName, or select the name of your PC in this window (if it appears).
    Click Connect.
    Enter your PC's workgroup name, your user name, and your password when prompted, then select the volume or folder you wish to access.
    Your PC volume should appear in the Shared section of your Finder window on your Mac.
    Open the volume and drag and drop files directly from it to anywhere on your Mac.
    When finished, click the eject button to right of your PC volume to unmount it.
    Alternative methods
    Copy files to a shared file server.
    Purchase PC Data Transfer service at your local Apple retail store.

  • How can I run a 27" Apple Cinema Display and another monitor from my MacBook Pro?

    Hi everyone,
    I recently purchased a brand new 15"  MacBook Pro to replace my old one. I was told when ordering it that I would be able to hook up two external monitors to it using the Matrox DualHead2Go hardware. So, I also bought a 27" Cinema Display (non-Thunderbolt since it wouldn't work with the DH2Go). However, when I contacted Matrox they said their products don't support screens as large as the 27" ACD.
    Bummer!
    So, my question is: does anyone know how I can hookup a 27" Apple Cinema Display at 2560x1440 and a Acer 22" monitor at 1685x1050 (or, anything less really) to my new MacBook Pro?
    I've looked around and haven't been able to find a good answer.
    Thanks for your help!

    Will something like this work? A USB to VGA adapter? Can I use this at the same time that I have a Cinema Display plugged into the Mini-DVI port and will they both work at the same time? Anyone know?

  • Can't see anything in iWork 08 after installing it on my new MacBook Pro

    I recently reinstalled IWork 08 in my new MacBook Pro.  I was using it on my old MacBook Pro, which my wife now has.  When I open any of the programs, everything is white. If I double click any text that may be in the file, it can be viewed as highlighted.  But otherwise everything is white.  My Keynote presentations don't display anything; no themes, no backgrounds, nothing.
    Could this be becasue it is still installed on my old machine?

    If you installed iWork from the disk, did you run the updates?
    If you copied the app over from the old Mac you would also need a copy of the iWork '08 folder which is in Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support
