Does imovie come free with the macbook pro?
So I'm planning to buy a macbook pro really soon. But i wanted to know if imovie comes with it for free, if anyone could please let me know that would be great. Thanks.
iMovie comes with all new Macs for free. Just, after setting up the Mac, open App Store > Purchases, and you will be able to download iMovie for free. Also, you will be able to install it on all your Macs for free

Does iWork come free with the macbook pro?
When you buy a macbook pro does stuff like Pages come free? and if i bought pages for ipad will it be free for macbook if its not already free?
Unfortunetly Mac's don't come with iWork (Pages, Numbers, Keynote). They only come with iLife, which consists of Garage Band, iWeb, iMovie etc.
There is a free alternative, which does the exact same thing as iWork and MS Office, it's called Open Office. It's free to download, use and share. It's free from adds and commenrcials and is a very usefull program because it has things that iWork and the basic MS Office Mac don't offer (such as a their own version of Access and Project)
Link to OpenOffice is Bellow
http://www.openoffice.org/porting/mac/download/
Once on this page, download OpenOffice.org Aqua

Hey guys,
So after a few months of using the MBP 15' Retina, I've discovered that the fans are incredibly loud even when playing flash games like candy crush or tetris.. are any of you guys having the same problem? Like all of a sudden from be quiet to unbelievably loud just as the games load. So yeah, hopefully someone has the same problem as I am having.
What I was thinking was that the MBP Retina 15' is such a beefed up laptop, it shouldn't require that much CPU to run flash games that are not even THAT graphically intensive to which making the fans that loud..
Thanks!Believe it or not, Flash REALLY isn't the issue.
It's hardware makers making devices with less processor performance and requiring software makers to fit into a certain requirements of such. Namely iPhone, iPods and iPads.
Flash is designed to give a lot of features and work across many operating systems, browsers and platforms as a write once solution.
Flash has a certain level of processor performance requirement, which hardware makers like Apple want to build less powerful machines using less expensive processors.
Apple has removed Coverflow 3D effects from iTunes and discontinued the 17" MacBook Pro, leaving only the 15" as having a more powerful 3D capable graphics capability.
So Apple is obviously on a anti-heat/performance quest as they further thin up their hardware, trying to kill Flash by punishing Mac users who want to run it.
Flash runs without a fan sound on my older Mac with dedicated GPU and older OS X verison, no sweat.
Head to your System Preferences > Energy Saver and if you have it, uncheck Automatic Graphics switching, this will use the dedicated GPU and shorted battery life, but if your on power should reduce the heat and fan noise.
Another option is to use SMC fan control and set the fan default speed slightly faster, this will keep the machine slightly cooler and not trigger the higher fan speed as often.
If your running 10.8, you will need to System Preferences > Security > downloads to "Anywhere"
SMC FanControl is over at MacUpdate.com. -
How well does Adobe Air work with the MacBook Pro?
If I install a program that uses Adobe Air will it affect my MacBook Pro?
I have several other Macromedia applications - but not Air. But if the other applications are an indication, boot is going to be slow (around a minute); Air's dependence on Flash will guarantee relatively slow performance. As you know, most other applications boot in seconds.
Your best solution would be to download the free part of the programs to determine if you find the performance acceptable. -
How does one continue to use Mail on the early MacBook Pro, Model 1,1, that is not upgradable to Lion? I have been running iCloud on my iPhone (OS5) and iMac (Lion) along with the MacBook Pro (OS Version 10.6.8) since November until now. Mail will no longer download on the MacBook Pro and keeps asking for my password.
Mail should still be usable with your machine - but you'll need to update the settings to conform to the requirements of your system. Check with your ISP (like ATT, etc.) for the settings that will work with your Mail. Once you've updated this, you should be able to email like before.
For example, my ISP required that I go to Mail Preferences/Accounts and make sure the details conform to your email settings.
I have no idea of what your ISP is or what the settings might be, but this is likely the source of the problem. -
Are SACDs fully compatible with the MacBook Pro?
I'm a huge Tolkien appreciator, and I absolutely love Howard Shore's incredible scores for Peter Jackson's film adaptions of The Lord of the Rings. The Complete Recordings of each film come with a double-sided SACD of the score, which does play in the DVD Player application on my MacBook Pro (late 2011), but I'm not sure if it's actually getting the full sound quality from the SACD. Does anyone know if the MacBook Pro's system takes full advantage of the multiple channels on the SACD?

What wireless routers work with the MacBook Pro?
I have been having problems with my inconsistent D-Link 624 and I realize that I will have to replace it.
I would like to know what routers are compatible with the MacBook Pro. My D-Link worked fine with my iBook but I think it does not work with the Intel binary. Any suggestions?I had problems with a number of different Linksys routers (dropped signal, couldn't connect to some iChat AV calls, etc). I'd been using some Airport express routers for music around the house, which I switched around a made a primary wireless router and a reange exapnder. I've had ZERO problems since.
BTW, I was having almost identical problems with my PowerMac G5 (with a wireless card).
I'm curious if something in recent upgrades (10.4.7?) has changed the OS's ability to connect reliably with non-Apple routers.
But at least my Apple routers seem to be working very well. -

Do I go with the MacBook pro or the MacBook air? I'm going into 8th grade and were required to have labtop. I Also edit videos for my YouTube chanel. Which should I get 13 inch model.
MacBook Air: thin, light, fast SSD storage. Cons: not upgradable, expensive.
MacBook Pro: cheaper, upgradable, better graphics card, more storage and RAM for the buck. Cons: not as light
you'll get more for the money with the MacBook Pro. the Air is better as a second computer for people. -
