Cannot get NexDef to install on MacBook Pro - Ideas?
Hey folks...I've been trying for a while to get the NexDef add-in for Safari to install properly to no avail. If anyone has found a good, step-by-step process to make this thing install successfully on Mac OSX 10.8.5, please let me know.
Hi All!
I have a mid-2010 27" iMac and have not been able to properly install NexDef 4.2.21 to OSX 10.9. Can't get it to work on Safari, Firefox or Chrome. I have tried all the "work-arounds" on apple discussions and even on MLB.com to no avail. It's clear that there is no way to get NexDef to work on Mac Mavericks, but has anyone been able to find any discussions from MLB on an update to work on the latest Mac OS?
Thank you in advance for any info!!

Cannot get Leopard to install on Macbook
I am trying to install Leopard on my Intel Macbook.
The install disk told me I could not install Leopard on the macbook HD and told me to repartition in GUID format? However when I looked into this via disk utility I saw no option for this. The drive is formatted in Mac OS extended (Journal) So after twiddling my thumbs for a while I double clicked on the Macbook drive and the installation seemed to begin despite the warning.
Now I have what appears to be a completely wiped HD no sign of OSX 10.4 no apps nothing. And I am still getting the same repartition text . Install fails. Any ideas are appreciated. I can't even get the leopard disk ejected.

Where did you double click? In DU? Exactly what did you click on.
Are you aware that repartitioning your drive erases everything? You must backup before a repartition. If you did a reformat, and you have no backup you should stop using the computer and proceed to recover the data from the HD, which is a separate issue.
If you looked at the actual drive in DU, you would find the partition scheme listed on the lower right. You have to select the actual hardware, not the BSD partition. I suspect that your problem was NOT improper format but something else entirely.
Now I have what appears to be a completely wiped HD no sign of OSX 10.4 no apps nothing. And I am still getting the same repartition text . Install fails. Any ideas are appreciated. I can't even get the leopard disk ejected.

You can get the DVD ejected by holding down the Left Mouse Button or Trackpad button while starting up the computer. -
I cannot get a signal from my MacBook Pro to a Samsung T220HD using an HDMI cable
I was in the Apple store to see how to improve the resolution on my Samsung T220HD, which I had connected to my MacBook Pro using the PC cable and an Mini DisplayPort adaptor. The staff recommended I buy a Kanex Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Cable instead. I've plugged the new cable in, and the Samsung display reads "Check signal cable".
I don't have another cable to test it; am I doing something wrong?Mini Dis[playPort cables have a lot of contacts, and require a lot of force to seat properly. Push until all the metal part of the plug disappears into the jack.

Cannot get display on my apple macbook pro?
My Macbook Pro Switches on gives the start up sound but nothing appears on screen. The keyboard lights up but nothing on screen.
Is there a way I could use an external monitor to see the displayWelcome to the Apple Support Communities
First, reset the SMC > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964 Do a PRAM reset > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
If it doesn't work, it's possible that there's a hardware problem with the graphic card or the display. To test that, connect an external display. Look at the connectors of the external display and buy an adapter if it's needed. Just connect the external display to the MacBook, turn on the external display and start your computer, so image will appear on the external display. If nothing appears, the graphic card is damaged, if something appears, the display is damaged. In both cases, take your MacBook Pro to an Apple Store or reseller -
Cannot get Continuity to work with Macbook Pro
I am unable to receive or make iPhone on my mac.
They’re both on the same wifi network
Both connected to iCloud
Mac is using Yosemite
iPhone is using latest iOS
iPhone cellular calls in enabled on phone
Handoff enabled on mac
On my iPhone, in "General" settings, there is also no Handoff settings available. Further more, whenever I try to go into iCloud settings on my mac, it takes a while, lags and the spinning wheel comes on for a couple of seconds.
Just to clarify, I am able to receive calls on my iPad Air with iOs 8 installed.
ALSO, when I click on iCloud Drive in my finder, the window doesn't change. It stays on "my documents" even though the "iCloud drive" is selected. Both are enable in settings.
What am I doing wrong?I promise you I have iOS 8. I'll attach photos. You'll see there is no handoff option.

Hi, I want to do a clean re-installation of my end 2011 Macbook Pro which comes with pre-installed Lion OS. I go through the installation steps and after App Store verified my Apple ID, it prompted me that I did not purchase the Lion OS. I am very surprise to see this message which my pre-installed Lion Macbook Pro should have it. Please help and advise how can I get the OS? All other bundle softwares were in the purchase record except the Lion OS.
That was my mistake - sorry - it IS Command-R to boot to the Recovery disk, not Command-D: I either just hit the wrong key or am just now coming awake from my nap.
Let me see if I can just explain it in a few steps - I don't know of any link (but it would make a good User Tip):
Create an up-to-the minute back-up of your internal hard drive using an external hard drive and Time Machine.
Boot to your recovery partion - holding down Command-R on boot.
Use Disk Utility to erase Macintosh HD - use one GUID partition and format as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". Unless you're selling the machine, there's no need to do a secure erase (which can take hours).
After you erase the disk, re-install Lion from the same Recovery partition.
After installation is complete, reboot, again holding down the Command-R keys to boot into the Recovery Partition.
Restore your Time Machine back-up. This could take several hours.
Reboot after restore and you're back in business.
That should take care of everything - all you need is an Internet connection.
Call back if I didn't explain things too well - at least I got the Command-R right this time!

What is largest solid state drive I can install in MacBook Pro 8,2? I want to perform a clean install of Mavricks and dump my old hard drive.
If the bank account permits, I suggest getting a 1 TB SSD anyway. One cannot have too much storage.
Unless you are having issues with your current installation, a 'clean' install is not necessary. It would be more efficient to clone your current drive to the new SSD, test it, and then do the swap. The installation of Mavericks over Snow Leopard can be done either before or after the cloning process.

I have downloaded 10.5.8 combo several times and cannot get it to install because the disc won't mount or the installation gets hung up after restart. My current os is 10.5.1, and I am trying to upgrade to snow leopard. This is on a dual core macbook pro.
You don't need to update to Leopard 10.5.8 unless you want to keep Leopard. Upgrading to Snow Leopard requires that your purchase the retail install disk.
The following covers Leopard:
Some general advice on updating:
It is worth noting that it is an extreme rarity for updates to cause upsets to your system, as they have all been extensively beta-tested, but they may well reveal pre-existing ones, particularly those of which you may have been unaware. If you are actually aware of any glitches, make sure they are fixed before proceeding further.
So before you do anything else:
If you can, make a full backup first to an external hard disk. Ideally you should always have a bootable clone of your system that enables you to revert to the previous pre-update state.
Turn off sleep mode for both screen and hard disk.
Disconnect all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
1. Repair Permissions (in Disk Utility)
2. Verify the state of your hard disk using Disk Utility. If any faults are reported, restart from your install disk (holding down the C key), go to Disk Utility, and repair your startup disk. Restart again to get back to your startup disk.
At least you can now be reasonably certain that your system does not contain any obvious faults that might cause an update/upgrade to fail.
3. Download the correct version of the COMBO update from the Apple download site.
The Combo updater of Leopard 10.5.8 can be found here:
http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_8_Combo_Update
If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall.
Full details about the 10.5.8 update here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3606
More information on using Software Updater here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US
Using the Combo updater ensures that all system files changed since the original 10.5.0 are included, and any that may have been missed out or subsequently damaged will be repaired. The Delta updater, although a temptingly smaller download, only takes you from the previous version to the new one, i.e. for example from 10.5.7 to 10.5.8. Software Update will generally download the Delta updater only. The preferable Combo updater needs to be downloaded from Apple's download site.
Now proceed as follows:
4. Close all applications and turn off energy saving and screensaver.
5. Unplug all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
6. Install the update/upgrade. Do not under any circumstances interrupt this procedure. Do not do anything else on your computer while it is installing. Be patient.
7. When it ask for a restart to complete the installation, click restart. This can take longer than normal, there are probably thousands of files to overwrite and place in the correct location. Do nothing while this is going on.
8. Once your Mac is awake, repair permissions again, and you should be good to go!
If your Mac seems slightly sluggish or ‘different’, perform a second restart. It can’t hurt and is sometimes efficacious! In fact a second restart can be recommended.
9. Open a few of your most used applications and check that all is OK. In this connection please remember that not all manufacturers of third party applications and plug-ins, add-ons, haxies etc, will have had time to do any necessary rewrites to their software to make them compliant with the latest version of your operating system. Give them a week or two while you regularly check their websites for updates.
N.B. Do not attempt to install two different updates at the same time as each may have different routines and requirements. Follow the above recommendations for each update in turn.
Lastly, Apple's own article on the subject of Software Update may also be useful reading:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106695
[b]If you are updating Safari (or just have):[/b]
Input Managers from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If you have installed an OS update and Safari is crashing, the very [i]first[/i] thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level /Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari.
Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party add-on.
Additional tips on software installation here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106692
To reiterate, Input Managers reach right into an application and alter its code. This puts the behavior of the affected application outside the control and responsibility of its developers: a recipe for problems. That's not to say that issues absolutely will ensue as a result of Input Managers, but you, as a user, must decide. If the functionality of a specific Input Manager or set thereof is really important to you, you may well choose to assume the associated risk.
Again, the advice is to remove all Input Managers from the following directories:
/Library/InputManagers
~/Library/InputManagers
especially prior to system updates (they can always be added back one-by-one later).

How do I get more memory for my Macbook Pro Spring 2010 13-inch with 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo?
How do I get more memory for my Macbook Pro spring 2010 13-inch with 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. Apple says no memory currently available for that model. I have 4 GB memory and 3.99 used. Help!

Now I'm confused. This is the one Crucial told me to get:

Also what do you mean that actual memory is 16GB but with Apple it's 8?
When I go to the "About this Mac" it says Memory 4G 1067 MHz DDR3, then when I go to System Report it says
Memory Slot
Bank 0/ DIMM0 2G DDR3 1067 MHZ OK
Bank 1/ DIMM0 2G DDR3 1067 MHZ OK
Sorry I'm clueless. Just don't want to buy something that messes up my machine more than it already is.
The Crucial site appears to have recommended the correct spec 4gB RAM stick for your model. Please note that you will need to remove the existing sticks of RAM to install new, so you will need 2x4gB to get to 8gB.
When your model of computer was designed/built, it was tested with readily available 2x4gB (8gB). After release RAM retailers have tested it with higher amounts, and Apple didn't update their quoted specs. -
Like the thread topic says. I need help getting Aperture onto my new macbook pro that does not have a drive. I have no need for a drive after this to be honest just need my programs back on it. Thanks.
Two options:
Make a disk image or a clone of the installer CD on your Mac that has a super drive - you can create a disk image using Disk Utility or use Carbon Copy Cloner (if you have it) to clone the DVD to a thumbsdrive. Then run the installer on your MBY from this copy.
Or download the Trial Installer and install from there:
Download the Aperture 3.1 Trial. http://appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net/content.info.apple.com/Aperture/061-8328 .20101020.AprE3/ApertureTrial3.1.dmg
Open the Aperture Trial disc image.
Double-click the "Aperture Trial.mpkg" file.
Follow the onscreen instructions to install Aperture.
After the installation completes, choose Software Update from the Apple () menu.
Install the Aperture 3.4 update from the list of available updates.

How do i get microsoft excel on my macbook pro?

thanks xxThat will work to import Excel spreadsheets but you asked "how do i get microsoft excel on my macbook pro?". The answer remains, install Excel.
LibreOffice is a good alternative to MS Office but it is not 100% compatible. So if you are exporting spreadsheets from LibreOffice for others to import to Excel, be aware that the export may not be 100% as you intended. -

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you have an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch and you use iMessage, you can use it in your Mac if you want. OS X Mountain Lion includes Messages, that allows you to use iMessage.
First, check that your computer is supported > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs If so, open > About this Mac, and see what OS X version you have:
10.5 or older: you have to upgrade first to Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
10.6 or 10.7: open > Software Update, and install the most recent version. Then, open the App Store and purchase OS X Mountain Lion.
10.8: you are already using OS X Mountain Lion, so open the Messages app.
While OS X Mountain Lion is being downloaded, make a backup of your files and check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com
If you aren't referring to iMessage, you can't send text messages in your computer -

What version are you talking about and have you got the serial number?
If you want to install version 11 then you can download from Adobe website and use your serial number to activate it. The only problem I can see is that your serial number might be for a windows system and I don't know if it would work on a Mac. However, it is worth a try.
You are allowed 2 installations simultaneously so you should be OK in this respect.
The download link is here:

Make sure you use the MAC to download it so that you get the correct version for it.
