Can you down grade a macbook pro

Is it possible to downgrade a macbook pro for testing purposes? I was thinking I wan't to run leopard on my late 2011 mac bookpro. Thanks

Is it unheard of to insert them or access them? Has this never been done? I mean modify the latest OS with the drivers. I am not looking to re-invent the wheel even this info will help me understand better. Thanks

    Hello John...
    You may have a Safari third party add on installed that was compatible with the previous version of Safari but not 5.1. Try troubleshooting > Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
    FYI... this is a user to user forum. If you can't resolve the issue, information for contacting AppleCare  here.

  • Can you WIRELESSLY connect a macbook pro to a monitor to have extra work space on a separate screen from your macbook? (not mirror, extra monitor/workspace)

    Can you WIRELESSLY connect a macbook pro to a monitor to have extra work space on a separate screen from your macbook? (not mirror, extra monitor/workspace)
    It needs to be wireless.
    I am not asking about mirroring, but as a second screen.
    Apple tv communties said the Apple tv cannot do this, but maybe another type device can?

    My thunderbolt port stopped working on my late 2011 MacBook Pro rendering my external monitor useless--or so I thought.
    Mac Genius suggested using the Apple TV via AirPlay Display as a $100 solution. Took me all of 6 minutes to figure this out as there are no directions in the Apple TV box supporting this. But, it does work and I am now back in business.
    PS. Don't set up with bluetooth--seems logical but you want to use AirPlay Display under Settings > Displays.
    Also, I originally thought my external monitor stopped working because I upgraded the OS. This time, it was definitely a hardware issue and not software. It also fixed a known sound issue my monitor had with Macs. First time in my 15 years I've ever had a ViewSonic have issues with an Apple product, too. Thanfully, it is now fixed.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT4059 can you use ibook on macbook pro

    can you use ibook on macbook pro? If so, how do i read the free books from itune?

    "if you can use the Kindle app from iPad to Macbook, shouldn't you be able to do the same with an apple product?"
    No.
    The kndle app provides this feature.
    Ibooks does not.
    " I would rather buy books from iBooks"
    You can buy form whomever you like.
    " but not being able to go from device to device like in Kindle is a problem."
    You can read iboks on ipod touch/ipad/iphone, just not your computer.

  • How much ram can you put in a Macbook Pro 7,1?

    I have what I thought was 2011 macbook pro, but when I just looked it up the 7,1 appears to be a 2010. Anyway, I want to max out the ram. OWC says you can put in 16GB of the DDR3 1066MHz SO-DIMM; here is the link: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/8566DDR3S16P/ Has anyone done this and does it work?

    If OWC says it will work, it will work.  The 2010 13" MBP can accept 16 GB RAM due to a relatively new firmware update.  Other 2010 MBPs cannot (still).
    Ciao.
    Carefull on the specifications!  They should be:  204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM.

  • Can you still buy a macbook pro with snow leopard?

    can you still purchase a new macbook with snow leopard?

    No.  However, some used and refurbished Mac shops still have MacBook Pros with a warranty sold with them*:

    And yes, they are Snow Leopard compatible.  July 20, 2011 is the cutoff date.   So be sure the model predates that vintage.

  • Can you transfer files from Macbook Pro to iPad Air via USB ?

    Hi ,
    Can you use that USB adapter to transfer photos / .pdf`s / .mp3`s and so forth ?
    I have a MBP-R + MM , and would like to be able to use the newer iPad Air for veiwing photos as well as .pdf`s , I got the music part , just sync with iTunes.
    Many thanks !

    iTunes, when your iPad Air is plugged in via USB to your computer and selected in iTunes, has a tab for Books which can transfer your PDFs to iBooks.  It also has a tabs for Photos.
    If you select the Apps tab and scroll down to the bottom of the apps list, you will see a section for Apps that can sync files between your computer and the App on your iPad Air.  So if you have an app that handles a specific file format you can use iTunes to sync that file between your computer and your iPad Air.
    As has been mentioned above, besides iBooks, GoodReader is another well respected app that handles PDFs and you can transfer PDF files between your computer and GoodReader on the iPad Air via the Apps tab.

  • Can you help me connect MacBook Pro to home wifi?

    My iMac will connect to my wireless router but my MacBook Pro will not. Network set up utility falls. Tried all the restarting stuff already. There is not IP address for the router on the laptop, but there is one on the iMac. That is the only difference I can see.

    Figured it out. My ex-husband had enabled MAC address filtering on the router firewall. The iMac's was already registered but the laptop's was not.

  • Can you tell if your MacBook Pro has latest revision logic board??

    is there any way to tell if your MacBook Pro has latest revision logic board??

    I'm awaiting the same thing, also in the U.K. The service center told me that they've had many of these repairs, and that there is a substantial backorder for logic boards in the U.K. I was told that it could be 6-8 weeks, which is absolutely appalling. I think that's an intolerable amount of time to repair a brand new, quite expensive computer.

  • I can't turn the volume up or down on my MacBook Pro?

    I can't turn the volume up or down on my MacBook Pro? It shows a kind of "stop" sign? I can get the speakers to work by connecting my headphones to the computer and choosing the sound to be on the speakers, but as soon as I take the headphones out, I can't get any sound out of the speakers..
    Sometimes there is a "Red" light coming out of the AUX-port?

    Hey vgamborg,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    This article should help you troubleshoot issues playing sound from the built-in speakers. Try the steps listed, and I quoted a part about the red light.
    Troubleshooting issues with no audio from built-in speakers on Macs
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1574
    Check to see if a red light is lit in the line-out port. If so, your Apple computer may need service.
    Have a nice day,

    How can I restore my new Macbook pro to Factory setting?

    Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch

    After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
    Quit DU and return to the main menu.
