Can my macbook pro play 3d videos

I have a bootcamp partition on my mid 2010 macbook pro 13". when I updated the graphics driver, the nvidia management tool displayed that it could manage my stereoscopic 3d. I wanted to know if my computer could manage 3D if I bought the glasses and IR receiver.
Thanks,

The screen is just a screen, it displays whatever the video card says and code fed to it.
The 3D effect occurs with your eyes, as the glasses force one eyeball to move out of alignment to match the mismatched two patterns on the screen that create the 3D effect.

  • Why won't my macbook pro play youtube videos?

    Why wont my macbook pro play youtube videos????
    I bought this over the summer and it's now Nov 28th. I've had it with this thing and nobody is answering my question! Please help!
    I reset safari, emptied my cache, cleared my history, uninstalled and re-installed flash player and nothing has helped. In fact, un/reinstalling flash player worsened the problem. And I cannot update it becuase it says "not recognized".
    I do have avast anti-virus: but I can't fix the warnings in it (after I scan, some warnings popup and it wont let me fix it and I have no idea where to find it in the computer itself). Does this have anything to do with it? I need virus protection, so I dont want to get rid of it.
    I do not have the money to buy firefox (and it's never worked for me ever anyways).
    I know it's not my internet because my dad's pc works great and my sister's mac (for school) loads youtube videos instantly.
    I also have this annoying issue where every page on the interned needs to be reloaded three times before itll load the first time. It sits there for five minutes and does nothing, then I reload the page and BAM its loaded: EXCEPT YOUTUBE.
    For a $1400 machine, I'd like to know what and why this is happening.

    Perhaps there is something wrong with your software and/or a corrupt cache file outside of the browser.

    Hmm hard to tell what's causing this. May have to do a process of elimination to cure everything on the machine.

    Uninstall the anti-virus, they always cause issues on Mac's.
    You say you need anti-virus, so install the free ClamXav, it's a program you run as you need it, because 99% of the malware out there is for Windows and won't run on a Mac, thus you can just run ClamXav when you need it on where you need it. Won't bugger up the machine.
    I do not have the money to buy firefox (and it's never worked for me ever anyways).
    Firefox is a free web browser by the open source community, it's very powerful and highly customizable with more add-ons, extensions, personas, themes than any other browser. Some things  can be done on Firefox can't be done on any other browser at all. Certainly for someone who is a bit more seasoned to use it fully.

    You mentioned your "dad" and you've mentioned a delay loading pages and not YouTube at all.
    Are you by any chance the Administrator of the computer? Can you install Firefox if you wanted too just as a experiment or does it ask for a Admin name and password and you can't provide it?
    "Nannyware" has the ability to block sites and slow down page draws as it's consulting with the nannyware company if that site is suitable to be loaded on your machine.
    If your are the Admin of the machine, then your going to have to methodically go through the fix it list I've generated here to resolve your issue as I cant' tell what's causing your problem specifically behind a screen.
    If it's too much for you, take the machine to a local Mac/PC software repair shop and they can fix you up.
    I suspect by #12 your machine will be fixed.

  • Can my Macbook Pro play HD-DVD or Blu-Ray?

    While installing Toast 8 onto my Santa Rosa Macbook Pro, the installer asked if I wanted to configure my mac to play Blu-Ray discs. I'm quite curious if my hardware is even capable...

    apparently the toshiba man'fd Xbox 360 external HD-DVD drive (now 179) can work with XP/Vista with a driver
    ...so I would look into Parallels/Bootcamp(free, less convenient) to make that work...not too convenient though

  • Can a Macbook Pro play DVCpro HD without dropping frames?

    Hey All,
    I'm trying to output a 40min DVC Pro Hd 60, 1280x720 video to a projector for a large group. I'm using Quicktime 7.2 at full screen playing back on the second "monitor", but it seems like the video is dropping frames. The playback is stuttering and kind of strobing. This is a new 2.4ghz Macbook Pro with 2gb of Ram. The video is DVC Pro Hd from start to finish.
    Is this to much to ask from a Macbook Pro? Is there another codec with comparable quality that doesn't take overly long to encode that I could use?
    Any suggestions would be appreciated,
    Steve

    Forgot to mention I'm playing the video off of a 7200rpm Lacie firewire 800 drive.

  • How Good Can The MacBook Pro Play Minecraft and other games like assassins creed?

    Please Answer!

    You shouldn't have any problem running Minecraft; It's Java based and will run on most platforms. I'm running Minecraft without a hitch.
    Assasins Creed? Hmm, depending on your hardware spec i shouldn't see you having a problem.
    I'm running on the 2013 15" Retina, with dedicated graphics chip though; However the Activity Monitor shows that it is using the Iris chipset to run Minecraft.
    Hope that helps.

  • HT1338 can macbook pros play blu-ray dvds

    Can my macbook pro play blu-ray dvds

    Also note that a MacBook Pro 15" Late 2011 has a native resolution of 1680x1050 (16:10) in lieu of the 1920x1080 16:9 Blu-ray output.
    It would be scaled down to 1680x945 to display on the screen.

  • How much RAM can my Macbook Pro hold MAX?

    Can my Macbook Pro hold a MAX of 8GB or is it just 4GB? I'm getting different answers online and I'm a little annoyed at this point. My computer specs currently are:
    15 inch Laptop
    MacBook Pro 2.6 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM.
    Got my computer in 2009.
    At Crucial.com it says it can hold up to 8GB when I select my computer processor speed from their list, but I noticed it saying DDR3 (and I don't know what that means to be honest). Here's the link:
    http://www.crucial.com/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=7F3A5584A5CA7304
    To the best of my knowledge I selected the correct computer, which I own, from their list.
    Under "About This Mac", on my computer, it says DDR2 for the memory, on Crucial.com it says DDR3. As a result I'm confused and will that cause problems?
    I'll be getting my RAM kit from Crucial.com, so do I buy the 4BG kit, because that's all my laptop can handle, or is it OK to get the 8GB kit, which says DDR3?
    I do a lot of video and audio, so I would like to get my RAM up to 8 GB if it will.
    Thanks

    One more question friend....You've been so helpful
    Will these two sticks work together on my machine?
    2GB, 200-pin SODIMM, DDR2 PC2-5300 memory module
    http://www.crucial.com/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=B54C51B4A5CA7304
    along with a...
    4GB 200-pin SODIMM DDR2 PC2-6400 Memory Module
    http://www.amazon.com/Crucial-CT51264AC800-200-pin-SODIMM-PC2-6400/dp/B001RB21JE
    So these two would add up to 6GB total. Now the ONLY DIFFERENCE that I see is the 2GB stick is PC2-5300(667Mhz)speed and the 4GB stick is PC2-6400(800Mhz)speed. I understand that my machine won't run at the 800Mhz speed that the PC2-6400 stick is designed for, cause my machine says 667 under the memory info. From what I read online, it's ok to put a higher Mhz stick in there, it will just cap at 667Mhz speed? But.......both sticks are DDR2, which is right for my computer, but will the 667 MHz with a 800 Mhz be a huge no-no to run together? At this point I think that is my main concern! If I can't do this, than I think I'll have to go with the 2x2GB kit for 4GB total, but I REALLY would like to run 6GB.
    Shew.... :P
    Thanks again!

    It all depends on what your useage of Windows will be, for playing games install it in BootCamp, for word processing, spreadsheets, email. browsing etc a virtual Machne will be fine.

  • Can Mac Book Pro play Bluray and can i sling that to apple tv?

    Can Macbook pro play Bluray

    It's a DVD SuperDrive, not a Blu Ray! And if you were to plug one in, the OS won't have a clue as to what to do with it. The late lamented Steve Jobs, and Apple thus far, decided not to support the format, hence why you won't see one of those drives in a Mac.
    You CAN get it to (eventually) play, but will have to purchase expensive third-party applications. Beside the expensive external drive. And you probably won't be able to "sling" it to your TV, cause that's precisely what the movie cabal doesn't want you to do.

    Thanks for the thought. My Macbook Pro is running slow in all ways. I have done all the suggestions given to me in my previous question about "50 second startup" etc. including etrecheck (see below) with nothing helping.I  have not reset my directory or typed "purge" in terminal. Should I do them?

How can I get this done? Please help me.

    Many apps are not completely removed if the .app file is trashed (which is what I believe you've done so far).
    If you don't want to dig through the system to manually remove library files, I recommend the use of AppCleaner, which does the job for you.

  • Macbook pro to HDTV, video is working but audio is not working, how to make audio work as well

    Macbook pro to HDTV, video is working but audio is not working, how to make audio work as well

    If you use an HDMI cable, the audiostream will be integrated, so there will be sound when using an HDMI cable!
    Not necessarily.  That only works as stated if you have one of the most recent MBP's that has a built-in HDMI port.
    If the MBP only has a Thunderbolt or miniDisplayPort, you need an appropriate adapter cable and even if you use an HDMI adapter or cable to connect to your HDTV there is no guarantee it will carry audio.  You have to determine if your specific MBP model supports audio out through its miniDisplayPort or Thunderbolt output, and whether the adapter does likewise.
