Compatible superdrive for Mac

I need a superdrive for my macbook, but I can't afford an Apple superdrive by the moment. is there any other compatible and cheaper superdrive with os?

Amazon also carry internal(not sure it fits in your MacBook, though) and external SuperDrive compatible drives.

  • Compatible printers for Mac mini (Mac's)

    Where can I find a list of compatible printers for Mac. My current Windows printer is a Canon LBP-1120 and cannot use it with my Mac mini. So its probably time to get another printer for my Macs.

    I should add that there are a number of printers that are compatible and that don't necessarily appear to be so as a result of third-party drivers. This includes, if I'm not mistaken, some Canon models which can be plugged in and selected in Printer setup.
    Others, such as at least some Epson, HP and Lexmark models, are supplied with Windows and MacOS drivers (you need to make sure they're for the right version of MacOS) or the box will be labelled such that it indicates PC/Mac compatibility.
    You might take a quick look at the printers offered through the online Apple store (under Mac accessories) to get an idea of which makes to look at. This will only tell you about current models of course, but should at least prove a reliable starting point.

  • Hp All-in-One 2175 compatible drivers for Mac book pro 10.5

    I can print, cut can't scan. Does anyone know if their is scan software that will work with OS 10.5? The lastest listed on the Hp site is from 2006.

    Hello brie59, and welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see you are having software issues.  There is no software for Mac OS X 10.5 for this printer.  I would recommend connecting the printer via USB cable and running the Apple updates, to try and utilize the basic Apple print driver.
    Please let me know if you have any questions.  Thanks for posting on the HP Forums.

  • Lion compatible Quicken for Mac

    Hello,
    I have nearly 13 years of Quicken for Mac financial data running on my Snow Leopard MacBookPro that I want to preserve. I have not yet upgraded to Lion, but plan to do so very soon. I have an old iMac which is stuck running Tiger which I can use as a Quicken 2007 machine if need be. My question is: Do I need to upgrate my laptop to Lion before installing and using the new Quicken for Mac? Does it matter?
    Thanks,
    jerseypolly

    I'm new to Macs and want to transfer my PC Quicken data to my new Mac running Lion.  Does this $15 verion of Quicken run as it claims on Lion - I assume that it is only $15 to get it out there?
    I downloaded Essentials a month ago and dumped it.  It does not have manual data entry near as easy as the PC version.  How does this Mac verion work?  Anything like the data entry for the PC?
    Any info about data conversion?  I do have it converted from PC to Essentials, which was a hastle to get the conversion file.
    Thanks.

  • External Superdrive for Mac mini?

    Recently I got a disc stuck in the drive of my mini and for the life of me I can't get it out so...I was wondering if they make an external Superdrive that will work with the mini. I had a look at the website and found one that says its for the macbook air, would that one work?Thanks in advance.

    Speaking for myself, I typically offer links to that vendor because they have Mac, and system specific, solutions which helps with a level of confidence that the problem is more likely than not to be solved. My personal experience with them as a vendor has born that out.
    That said, there are other competent vendors out there too who also offer good service and stand by their products, so it's up to you who you use. The only thing that encourages me to OWC is that if you buy something they are offering as a viable upgrade or add-on to your mini and it proves otherwise, they'll resolve the problem.

  • 2nd SuperDrive for Mac Pro

    Has anyone found where to buy a 2nd SuperDrive.
    My Mac Pro has the Sony DVD DW-D150A, so I guess I would want to stick with that one rather than the Pioneer.
    Thx

    Hi everyone, just a simple question:
    To add the second Optical drive, should you set it
    as
    Cable or Slave?
    Thnx already
    Apple ships the OEM optical drive in the New Mac Pro
    with the jumpers set to Cable Select as default
    (anticipating a second optical drive will be
    installed). All you have to do is set the second
    optical drive also to Cable Select and you should be
    on your way. If that doesn't work, just reset the
    already installed OEM ( Sony) drive in the Mac Pro to
    Master, and then set your new additional opticals
    drives to Slave. If that doesn't work for you, then
    switch the drives and reset then both to Cable
    Select, and if neccessary to Master/Slave...Good luck!
    You can't go wrong with a Master-Slave setting. Just be sure that when you're moving the jumps to really study the graphic on the drive or in the manual. You won't hurt anything if you do it wrong, it just won't work.
    The Mac that I use doesn't support cable select, so I'm a bit unfamiliar with how drives work these days in the Mac Pro. Master-Slave is the best option since that will obviously work.

  • Additional Superdrive for Mac Pro

    Where can I buy an additional superdrive (or compatible) for my macpro 2.66 and is this a DIY fit?

    I did not, but then I googled what that meant (I previously thought it was a software change, not a physical change I had to make to the drive) and now it works like a charm!
    For future instances where this becomes a problem to people unsure of what changing the jumper to CS is, on this particular drive, on the back there is a set of 8 pins, in 4 columns of 2. One of these columns has a plastic grey piece covering the pins. Consult your drive's manual, but on the Pioneer 115D, you must relocate the plastic grey piece from the pins farthest to the right to the third column from the right (2nd from the left). This somehow communicates to the drive that it is not the master or the slave drive, but a Cable Select drive, whatever that is. Point is, follow those simple (albeit little known) steps, and the problem will be solved!
    Many thanks to those on the board who assisted me with my problem!

  • Pci-e usb 3.0 compatible cards for Mac Pro 2008

    Anyone know a list of compatible USB 3.0 pci-x cards. Unofficial working list is what I am looking for. I have a Mac Pro early 2008 OSX Macverick
    Thanks in advance for the help.

    It  depends. And they are PCIe.
    Sonnet Allegro works fine for me, but apparently not for Drobe.
    CalDigit is popular.
    Do a favor, some cards require 10.8.2 or later so always include your OS.
    www.macsales.com is always a good place to start your looking - if they sell it and they tend to sell what is supported and works.

  • Compatible Camcorders for Mac

    Does anyone have any ideas as to what camcorders are compatible with Macs? I want to be able to transfer video from a camcorder to my Mac. I haven't purchased a new camcorder yet and want to be well informed before I make a mistake.

    My Sony Mini-DV works via FireWire. So, any Sony with iLink should work. I know it's not a camcorder, but the Flip Video imports easily as well. The upside to the Flip is that I just copy video files over, and the downside is no control over specific clips. Advantages to iLink, or Firewire, is that iMovie will control the camcorder, allowing you to fast forward, rewind, etc and get that specific part that you want (or skip the part you dont). There really isn't a downside, other than file size. Higher resolution camcorders will import with a larger file size.

  • Looking for best compatible camcorder for Mac

  • Recommend a superdrive for a G4 Dual 500?

    Anyone know how I can find a compatible superdrive for a Mac G4 Dual 500? What specs do I need to know about?

    Hi-
    The Pioneer DVR-115 or the Pioneer DVR-116 are very good drives.
    Pioneer has the best native support in OS X, especially after OS X 10.4.3.
    Prior to that, most any drive will need the Patchburn utility for full burn support.
    My choice would be (is) the Pioneer DVR-116. Probably one of the quietest, and definitely a refined drive.

  • Is Office 2008 for Mac more compatible with PC's ?

    Hi,
    I currently have iWork 09. Sometimes, I save my documents to a .doc format for instance, but when I re-open it, I always have error messages saying that this thing or that thing has been modified to fit the current format etc...
    If I use office 2008, will it be a 100% compatible with PC's ?
    Sincerely.

    Yes, Office for Mac should be fully compatible with Office on Windows.
    The reason errors are popping up on your iWork documents may be because you are using things that aren't supported in Word (such as image reflections, or different fonts).

  • How can I buy an new Superdrive for my mac pro without having to take my computer to a apple store?????

    I have a Mac Pro and my optical drive is not working anymore.Thus, I went to the online store to buy another one.
    Surprisingly, the only one I found was the macbook air (external) superdive.
    I did not buy it online on that day. However, I went to the Apple Retail Store in Sydney to buy another external hard drive and asked to one of the costumer supports in red if the "macbook air" superdrive would work in any mac. The answer: YES!!! So, I got one. When I was paying the products I asked to the other "red mac guy" the same question... Again, the answer was YES!!!
    So... Do these costumer support guys have any training. It is written in the box that requires a macbook air... That's why I asked for two different guys!!! Why did they say YES???
    Ok! Lets not put the fault on the red guys... So I ask Apple:
    Why apple does not make a external superdrive for pros?? Or one that works for all macs!!
    or simply
    Why can't we buy internal superdrives anymore? Neither the online store or the retail store sell them anymore!!!
    How do I solve my problem? I have to waste my time, making an appointment and taking my Mac Pro to a apple store and wait untill all iphone user in the line learn how to send their photos to their facebook??
    It is really strange how apple is leaving the pro costumers behind to become a ipad and iphone industry!
    Let do not forget that mac only is where it is now becouse of the pros who made it name and did not leave it die.

    You know you don't have to buy a replacement dvd drive from apple.  For example, take a look at OWC's selection. 
    You don't say what year your mac pro is so I use a 2008 as an example.  On that page click the little picture that shows a 2008 mac pro.  That will take you to this page.  And there's an example of a Lite-On drive. 
    In addition, on the right side of that page are links to instructional videos on how to add the drive to your machine.  Click, for example, Optical, med (medium) and you will see how straight forward it is to change the optical drive.

  • Looking for a sports video camera that is compatible with the mac

    Looking for a video camera that can record sports well and is also compatible with the mac. I've been using iMovie to edit videos for a highlight reel of my highschool soccer games that I coach.

    I like Sony HD MiniDV (HDV) Handycam Camcorder - HDRFX1000, but I have also used several older Sony (DCR-TRV17 and DCR-TRV70) and Canon (VIXIA HV20, VIXIA HV30, and VIXIA HV40) tape-based Firewire-equipped camcorders with good results.
    I prefer tape-based Firewire-equipped cameras because of their IEEE 1394 transfer speed, compatibility with iMovie HD, and ability to serve as the source recording directly into iMovie when desired.  If none of these characteristics is important to you, other Mac-compatible camcorders with suitable zoom ranges and lens speeds for the light levels you encounter should also do nicely for recording at your games.
    You do not say which iMovie version you are using, but you can find about known compatible camcorders by searching for the info in a search like this one.

  • My Macbook browser is not compatible with a business website I must use for work.  Is there a Windows compatible browser for my Mac?

    My Macbook browser is not compatible with a business website I must use for work.  Is there a Windows compatible browser for my Mac?

    If the site has been optimised for IE (which is non-standards compliant), the best you can try is to spoof IE from Safari.
    I'm using an earlier version of Safari than you, so I hope Allan or someone will correct me if the procedure is different.
    First, go to Safari Preferences and enable the developer menu;
    Then go to the menu and select User Agent - choose a flavour of IE.
    Works about 50% of the time.
    It won't work if the site is using Activex controls.
