Can two monitors be used in place of retina display on new MBP?

I want to set up my new MacBook Pro (w. Nvidia graphics) with two external monitors.
Can I do this while shutting down the internal retina display to conserve graphics memory and boost performance? Thanks.

    Problem with two monitors while using Photoshop, windows move from 2nd screen to 1st screen.
    I saved a new workspace and it did not help.
    No problem before I went to Maverick.

    I found the fix, go to System Preferences and open Mission Control and uncheck the box to keep monitors as they were (When switching to an application...........)

  • Thinking of purchasing EA6500. Can it monitor bandwidth use by device

    I'm thinking of purchasing a Cisco Linksys EA6500. I need a router that can one monitor bandwidth used by device. Keep exceeding our ISP's network bandwidth allocation, need to identify the devices that are causing this high usage and be able to do so from the router. Does the EA6500's standard software support this, is their router software one can obtain for the unit that does this or is there another home router option that can perform this function? Stephen, Madeisky

    If I were in your shoes, I would find a router that supported it. Linksys routers aren't designed and marketed for stuff like that.
    As was previously said, netgear routers are the only ones that I'm aware of that do that. But there could be others.

    Unfortunately, that is not possible. The computer only can "output" your display image, it cannot "input" an image from an external computer and display it on your MacBook's retina display.

    How can i copy files from one external hard drive to another using macbook pro with retina display?

    That's odd - if you open Disk Utility (Applications->Utilities) and select the disk(s), how are they formatted? If you're only going to be used with your Mac, they should be formatted as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)".

  • Can I use the I pad retina display wall charger to charge my i pod 4 by using their individual cables?

    It is quite safe to use the higher powered iPad charger for other devices, as they will only use the amount of power required for charging, eventhough higher power is available. The Apple store shows all devices that can be safely charged with the iPad charger, see the link below.

    Hi can i ask about using an ipad 2 to exchange a new ipad mini

    Apple doesn't take trade-ins. You can a use a number of sites that take trade-ins or just give you cash for your device. One site is:
    www.gazelle.com
    There are others out there. Just Google "ipad trade-in"
    Your other option is selling your old iPad yourself.
    In any case, before you sell the device, follow the directions here to allow it to be used by the buyer as a new device.

  • Can i use FCP in 13inch Retina display laptop

    Can i use FCP in 13inch Retina display laptop.
    Hi guys, i have purchased a new mac pro retina disply
    8Gb Ram
    128 Gb flash storage.
    i can use fcp in this or what else is required for fcp.

    About all you can do is google the old specs and look for a copy on Amazon. You said you just purchased the MBP. You do have 2 weeks from the date of purchase to return it and buy a different model if that helps.

  • I want to use an IPad (w/retina display-newest) in my church hooked up to a projector

    I want to use an IPad (w/retina display-newest) in my church hooked up to a projector and shown on a screen.  I'd like to do it wirelessly as the projector will be installed in the ceiling.  I am not sure exactly what I would need to get this set up. I do not have wifi at church or cellular but would be getting the iPad (not yet purchased) with wifi only.  If I use Apple TV to hook up the projector to, would it need wifi to work if I will only be using the ipad for documents, worksheets (much like what a school/professor would use) or other things that an app could do (draw a line, etc.)  

    Epson projectors have such a feature, so if you're going to buy a new projector, you might start with their units. The app is described here:
    http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/jsp/Landing/ProjectorApp.do
    and there's a projector compability list linked from the very bottom of the page. There may be other projector manufacturers with similar apps, but I don't know for sure. All will probably also require a local WiFi network set up, though said network should not need Internet access if that's an issue for you.
    Regards.

    If they are saved on your iPad, they are as safe as anything else.

    Take it to an Apple store and ask. All they can do is say no. They may ask for a purchase receipt to make sure it's not stolen.
