Cleaning kit for Macbook Pro?

Hello, I have recently purchased the Macbook Pro. But, as the screen and the exterior parts of the Macbook Pro were getting dirty, I am currently trying to find a cleaning kit for the Macbook Pro and for other electronic devices.
I hear products like iKlear but I don't know if it is safe.
I can't find a reliable cleaning kit. Some say it leaves streak and it worries me if it will damage my Macbook Pro and my other electronic devices.
If possible, please recommend me a kit that can clean the screen, keyboard, and the exterior part (aluminum). Thanks!

When cleaning the outside of your MacBook, MacBook Pro, or MacBook Air, first shut down your computer and unplug the power adapter. Then use a damp, soft, lint-free cloth to clean the computer's exterior. Avoid getting moisture in any openings. Do not spray liquid directly on the computer. Do not use aerosol sprays, solvents, or abrasives that might damage the finish.

What is thes best 5.1 speaker kit for macbook pro 2011

what is the best 5.1 speaker kit for my macbook pro
thanks for help.

A 5.1 is considered a surround sound system, it's typically used in home theater systems, not computers.
A computer doesn't have the necessary electronics to produce the rich quality of sound that a 5.1 system can deliver, the PC 5.1's are just gamers gimmick cards, they too really don't have the necessary electronics or wattage for rich, full bodied sound.
Now I can tell you what works really well as a 5.1 system for iTunes, movies and such from your MacBook Pro, or anything really.
A Harmon Kardon 5.1 Home Theater.
It has 110 Watt speakers, 5 of them, and a 200 watt subwoofer that will make your heart thump in your chest.
You need only two things with this system, a optical stereo mini Toslink adapter and a optical Toslink cable.
You plug one inside your MacBook Pro (enable the optical out) and the other to the receiver and mess with the remote to enable theater mode from the computer for iTunes (takes stereo and makes it quad sound with separate bass)
For playing DVD's with 5.1, you enable the right 5.1 encoding, Dolby, ProLogic etc on both and the Mac passes the 5.1 through the system to the receiver.
For playing 3D games, you just pass the 5.1 through, the receiver handles the surround sound.
The important thing is setup, the listening point needs to be right in the center of the four channel speakers, the center is over your monitor or TV and the subwoofer is stuck in a free corner someplace, it's placement is unimportant, as long as it's in the room and not blocked.
Brother, you have system like this hooked up to your iTunes and tears will be falling from your eyes the music sounds so good. Makes you full hear the full quality of the iTunes bought music.
Will set you back a couple of thousand, but it's worth it. All the cables etc are color coded, easy to setup.

Clean install for macbook pro

Hello, I purchased a MacBook Pro 8,1 with i5 recently and I had to buy used. It was running Snow Leopard (no disk came with it) but I had upgraded all way to Yosemite. I contacted Apple support and was sent white Mac OS X Snow Leopard Install DVD. At bottom it says replacement DVD not for resale. This is my first taste of Apple products and really haven't grasp how things are done compared to the many years on a Window machine. Anyway I was in disk utility and I erased some stuff I shouldn't have I think. When I put DVD in Superdrive and boot up I get a white screen only. If I depress the "C" while powering up, I get to the Apple logo then to screen with big power button icon that's says I need to restart. Hold down the power button until it turns off in 5 languages. If I depress "option" when powering up I have "choose network" then above that I can pick my installation DVD. When I choose network I'm advanced 1 screen to right to put in password. I'm then back to left to select install DVD. It then shows me Apple logo then the shutdown screen.. Someone please enlighten me on fixing this problem....

No, when holding down option key it takes me to "CHOOSE NETWORK" and with the install disk above it. I pick my wifi and type my password but when I select the dvd it shows the apple logo then back to the restart screen. The only thing I'm guilty of was getting delete/erase happy while in disk utilities prior to this mess. I do know the macbook HD was deleted but shouldn't the dvd be my safety net? I should always be able to boot and install from that right? I here's weird fact, what should be listed on that snow leopard dvd if I opened it up in my windows laptop?

Wireless N upgrade for Macbook pro Intel Core Duo (Purchased 8/2006)???

Firstly, I am a little angered that apple has not come out with any directly supported options to allow people with my macbook pro to upgrade to the new wireless N capability.
Therefore I have found a 3rd party option that is being offered by fastmac (http://fastmac.com/ncard.php) that will allow for wireless N wifi.
My only concern is if having this installed (professionally by them or by an authorized reseller, say compusa) would cause my entire applecare warranty to be voided or just the part that covers the wireless card. I could deal with having the wireless card voided as it would be under warranty by fast mac...
Macbook pro intel core duo Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Your warranty is not voided by installing the Airport card. However, any damage that may be caused by the installation of the card would not be covered under the warranty.
Secondly, the Airport Extreme card that supports 802.11n is available as an upgrade kit for Mac Pros. Some Apple dealers may be able to obtain and install the card for you in your computer.

Backing up and cleaning up my Macbook Pro

Hi,
I've been using a Macbook Pro 2.2 GHz Intel i7 for just over a year now and my hard drive is full to the brim. I have recently noticed how much slower the whole system is and so have bought a 3TB Seagate desk top external hard drive and want to back up my whole system and clean up my Macbook Pro. This is the first time I've done this, so I would really appreciate some step by step advice.
I would like to know how best to copy all my files and documents to the drive so I can delete them in vast quantities from my Macbook, knowing that it is all safely backed up and accessible from the external drive. I've also been advised to install extra RAM, which would enhance the speed when running two programmes (Final Cut Pro and After Effects, most regularly). Basically, I would like to clean things up so my system runs as smoothly as it did when first out of the box.
Could you please offer some advice as to how I should go about doing this? Is there a process that I should be following in order to clean up my computer so everything is safely backed up? What other areas of my hard drive that I don't even know about should I be going into to free up space (caches, etc) .The Seagate is literally just out of the box.
Cheers,
Nick

I would suggest using Disk Utility to make two partitions on the Seagate, one the same size as your internal HD, the other for the remainder.
Then use Carbon Copy Cloner or similar to clone your internal disk, so that your Seagate is a bootable backup in case of problems.
Don't worry about caches, temporary files etc - let the OS take care of them.
You could then copy the contents of one of your big directories to the other partition on the Seagate, then delete from the internal disk and empty trash.
But longer term, use the Seagate as backup and internal as working, so I would suggest putting say a 1TB hard disk in place of your Superdrive and moving your bigger directories to that. Now all work is internal, with OS stuff on the original and your stuff on the not-yet-purchased disk, and when you backup (maybe every month for OS stuff, every week or even every day for work stuff) the OS stuff goes to one Seagate partition, the work stuff to the other. You have a bootable clone if your startup disk fails, and a backup of your work. For backing up to the work partition you could consider using Time Machine, so that you have several generations of security from accidental deletes, woopsies etc.

The normal value of battery capacity for macbook pro

Hi there,
I noticed my battery full charge capacity value is way below the technical specification from Apple.
For macbook pro 15" early 2011 version a 77.5W battery is built-in.
However, so far after 4 cycle, my full charge capacity is 6913mAh.
It seems that I missed something. Though I didn't really notice the initial value when it's brandnew.
Statistically what's the average value of the new battery will be ? around 75W or 7500mAh? Any idea?

Best battery info resource is here:

I bought the wrong version as I need it for macbook pro but somehow bought windows...help

I guess I will have to wait until normal office hours. I have no idea why it bought the window version as I did not realize that is what was selected. I hope I can get it exchanged for the photoshop elements 13 for macbook pro retina display. Anyone know if this is an easy switch and one they will do?

When buying HD versions of shows, only the HD copy will automatically download now (probably due to requests from people who don't need/want the SD version and complained about it being forced on them). The SD copy can be downloaded from your purchases area in iTunes, though. On the main iTunes Store page, go to Purchases under the Quick Links and then select TV shows. Click the "Not On This Computer" button. Uncheck the "Download HD when available" box and you should then see the SD copies of the shows and be able to download them.
Regards.

How can I know if my new internal hd for macbook pro is compatible?

I have been trying to upgrade my internal HD for macbook pro early 2008 2.4 and have been having a hard time getting it to boot. Problems with both WD and Seagate. I am wondering if the problem is with Mavericks. I got a good back up from Time Machine to load on the hybrid drive. Then when I try to restart it shows the apply symbol with no chime and then a black screen comes over the blue screen with some code (strange problem I have never seen) I can see that all the data is on the drive. I was able to partitian in disk utility. Anything ringing a bell. I have done several switches like this and this is the first time I have had so much trouble. I reinstalled my old drive just to make sure there was not another hardward issue and everything is fine there. In fact I have a new logic board freshly installed by mac.

Your machine has a SATA 2 interface and I'm sure the new drives are SATA 3. They should still step down and work though. It's possible your SATA cable is marginal and the newer drive is trying to demand more out of it than the old one did. A good test would be to put the new drive in an external enclosure and see if it works ok from there. If so, it's probably the cable.

How did you install Mavericks on the new drive?

Those are same as use by Apple in the non-retina macbook Pro, Ive got piles of them, only a Hitachi is better.
Toshiba HD are a hair noisy even by Toshiba own admission, but no big deal.
I would NEVER buy from OWC merely for the reasons that their prices are miserable.
Here you go,   $65

GeForce 7300 GT Upgrade Kit for Mac Pro?? G5?

Hi,
Just found this on the apple store:
http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/ukstore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=1643C421&nplm=M A567
"NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT Graphics Upgrade Kit for Mac Pro"
Why is it only for mac pro? its PCI express & my g5 is one of the late 2005 models and it has PCI Express so am i wrong in thinking that this should work fine or is it something to do with the new intel architecture?
If i remember correctly i could have chosen this card or a very similar one when i configured my G5.
Thanks

That card is only for the Mac Pro, as it says.
When you ordered your G5, you had the choice of the nVidia 6600 (or 6600LE), nVidia 7800GT, or the Quadro FX 4500.
The 7800GT that you could have ordered with your G5 is close in performance to the ATi X1900XT that is an option on the Mac Pro. The 7300GT that you're looking at is an entry level card, which the 7800GT definitely is not.
The 7300GT and the X1900XT are both Mac Pro only due to the ROM on the card, which is designed to work with the EFI booting hardware that the Mac Pro uses. The G5s used Open Firmware, which requires a different ROM on the video card. So, even though both your G5 and the Mac Pro are PCI-Express based, these video cards are not compatible.
Now, most PCI-Express cards that you look at for, say, external SATA, will probably work in both the G5 and the Mac Pro. You'd still want to check the specs to be sure, however.
If you're looking for a new video card to replace your (presumably) nVidia 6600, your only real option is the ATi X1900 G5 edition. This is a different card than the X1900XT that's offered for the Mac Pro.
