Dial up with mac book?

Does anyone know if you can set up the Mac Book for dial up to the internet? It is very costly in my area for DSL. I was thinking it may be done with Air Port but I am not sure. I just got the new Mac Book and I do not have DSL at home. I thought maybe if I bought an Air Port base station, I could set it up for dial up and then the Mac Book could go on wirelessly.

You have to buy a usb modem $49.99 from apple.

But I don't know where is your location, but in most us area the dsl is within the same price or a couple dollar pricier than dial up.
If you use most of the work with internet, the speed from dsl will paid by increasing your productivity by more job can be done with faster connection, but if you only use to open e-mail once a day for up to 15 minutes, your choice to use dial up might be the right choice.
Good Luck

  • My camera Nikon D800 don't work with Mac Book Pro retina... Why ?

    Somebody Know why my digital reflex Nikon d800 don't work with Mac Book Pro retina ?

    I shoot tethered which requires that the D800 be recognized by the laptop. 
    However, I just figured it out. Nikon changed their USB protocol so that the D800 doesn't show up as a mass storage device.  That said, the d800 IS recognized by image capture and be computer in general, just not like previous Nikon dSLRs.  If you're tethering via Lightroom make sure the Nikon tethering plugin is enabled (which it may not be if you previously shot tethered with Canon).

    Streaming will be faster from the new iMac.  However it is still a good idea to keep the bulk of your material, 400 GB is a lot of content, on external drives.  That serves to protect the material if an internal drive fails, and also keeps the internal drive from getting too loaded down.  You can increase speed by simply moving content you want to use in the short term to the iMac SSD where it will be at its fastest speed, and then take it off when no longer needed there.
    That gives the speed and security for your material.

  • Seagate plus compatible with mac book pro

    Is seagate plus compatible with mac book pro and how do I know its backing up, where can I see the backed up files?

    Hello and welcome.
    Click on the desktop - next to the Apple click  on "Finder - in the drop down menu click on "Preferences" - under "Show these items on the desktop" click on Hard disks and External disks. All disks inside the computer and connected outside will appear on your desktop. The external hard drive will be orange in color.
    When you first connected that Seagate it should of asked you if you wanted to use that drive for Time Machine to backup to.

    Hi,
    I'm trying to get my Radius windows server 2012 working with the correct setting for using 802.1x wired connection for the mac book pro. The only issue I'm having is there is not much setting in the mac book pro. I'm not sure what need to setup on the sever to make it connect correctly and assign it to the correct vlan when it's authenticated.

  • IPad 2 cannot sync with Windows 7 machine but can sync with Mac Book Pro

    I connected the iPad to my Windows 7 machine straight out of the box and tried to register it for the first time. It showed up in the device list for the first 3 minutes and then disappeared altogether. Thinking this is just some small error, I started troubleshooting using this guide http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/itunes/
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2292
    after doing that 4-5 times, I still had not found a solution to the problem. I made sure that my computer had the Apple Mobile Device Drivers installed in it. After all my iPod can easily connect to iTunes, but not the iPad. There isn't a problem with the usb cable because I used the same cable on the iPod and it worked like a charm. The iPad gets recognized in the Device Manager as an Apple Product, but does not show up in iTunes at all. This problem has frustrated me quite alot. I also tried to use my friend's Windows 7 machine, but to no avail. It did not connect to his computer either. Finally as a last resort, I tried to connect it to a another friend's Mac Book Pro [iOS Snow Leopard], and like clockwork, it connected and showed up in his iTunes. This is what surprised and outraged me the most. After spending 5-6 hrs troubleshooting the connections on my Windows 7 machine, uninstalling and reinstalling applications, drivers and finally the OS itself, this iPad connects seemlessly to a Mac Book within 1 minute. I could synchronize data, songs and the like on the Mac Book, but I can't even get this iPad to show itself on a Windows 7 machine. I am truly at my wit's end with this problem. Could anyone please help me with it? I would surely be grateful.

    Here is my statdard reply, most of which you have already done. You may wish to try the others!
    Firstly, make sure that your device is not hidden (left hand pane). If it just reads device then toggle between SHOW and HIDE.
    Secondly, try all the other ports on your computer, even a number of times.
    Thirdly, if you have another computer try plugging your device into it without taking any action, give it a moment, remove it and try it back in your other computer again.
    Failing all that, see here - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 for Windows and http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 for Macs
    And failing all that put the device into Recovery mode. See here and note the paragraph 'If you restore from a different computer.... ' down near the bottom of the page -

  • Using itunes with mac book pro and mac mini

    Hello
    I have had a Mac book pro with all my music on external hard drive, and running to my through my network of 1 apple TV, 2 airport expresses. Working great.
    Now I have got an old Mac Mini and hooked up the external hard drive that has all my music on it and hook it up to my network. I want to use the Mac Mini as a Music Server. The music plays on the mac mini not the Apple TV or the airport expresses.
    I think it's something small but any help whould be great.
    Thanks

    Dreamweaver CS6 is not retina ready. Dreamweaver CS6 Cloud I believe was patched at 12.1 for this. However, I do not believe Adobe sees this as a patch but rather as a new feature thus if you are using Dreamweaver CS6 you will not get this release until Dreamweaver CS6.5 or CS7.

  • Auto Restart Issue with Mac Book AIR

    Have been using a Macbook PRO for sometime, no problem with Parallel installed. Due to frequent traveling, light and compact is my priority now, so I bought another AIR (11" i7 chip w/ Parallel installed as well). It was working flawlessly for few weeks, used it to download a couple of updates when I was in China (approx. 4Mbit/sec line speed) still no issues. UNTIL when I get back to my office and using WIFI updated another few stuffs, the AIR started to behave strangely with "your computer needs to restart due to problem ..."  the last few days it happened at least 10 times daily, so I did what I know with the usual Mac way,  reset PRAM, repair permissions blah blah blah ..problems persists so I called the service centre and the technician I talked to suggested the issue could be from 'your moderate internet speed causing incomplete system updated files.' ;  half convinced but I followed / reinstalled ...with no CD, it has to press option to select  to reinstall -- only then I realized a big problem, originally it states requires 27 hours to reinstall a fresh LION in my AIR but finally it completed and restated in still about MASSIVE 7-1/2 hours time. 
    As I have bought a USB network connector now (a convenient gadget when stays at hotels with different levels of facilities offered), this is not so troublesome and I think fellow users should consider using network and avoid using WIFI for this purpose. I notice once the left USB once was used (without turning off the WIFI)  it keeps breaking the connections, as I read some articles from this forum the left USB could has some stability issues.  After all the time spent, the computer freezes at times and auto restarts again. What the heck has this causes the AIR to behave this way ?
    NEXT, I also read on the Power issues, I bought it without realizing one of the technical highlight is on high performance battery management but you can chop my head off and sit on mine if the AIR can last 3 hours (probably the suggested time is with computer power on but without using it at all). I don't want to sound un-nice as I have been using Mac for many many years:  1) if AIR is entirely basing on internet (VERY HIGH SPEED) for support is not a really very friendly method for users if there is reliability issues via internet line support, says what if we are caught in remote area with 30k/sec line speed then we are totally dead ... ; 2)  the recent scare makes me dare not using the software updates now, as technician suggested, write down what is required to update, find it from apple and do it manually ...Goohs, my Mac Book Pro using side by side doesn't has this issue.   Since when was the last time I have to suffer maintaining a Mac myself ? ...  @%#&@*!(!
    Anyone has clue to these or simply return to service centre to handle for me ?
    Thanks in advance (first time user in this community).

    Hello!
    I´m sorry it took so long to reply, but I´m new to these blogs; and I´ve been travelling a lot... Anyway, I was able to configure Airport Express, but I was told I could use it to expand my wireless network inside my house; which I found it´s not possible.
    So, I´m returning my Airport Express to the store tomorrow and try to figure out a way to extend my wireless in any other way.
    Any sugestion? Big houses are a problem...
    Best regards, and once again thank you!
    Antonio
