HT1420 I use two MacBook pro, two iPads and two iPhones. Upon connection and attempt to synchronize photos I receive a message that my authorization limit is exceeded. I read that iOS devices do not count against the authorization limit.

I use two MacBook pro, two iPads and two iPhones. Upon connection and attempt to synchronize photos I receive a message that my authorization limit is exceeded. I read that iOS devices do not count against the authorization limit. One iPhone and one iPad show in the authorization list. iTunes wants to delete my purchased programs and books from the iPad to continue synchronization. What can I do?

Ok, now I do wish I could edit....
I forgot to APPLY the network settings for the USB cable to work. Connected thru USB I can tether.
So, I kept playing, and playing some more...
I had previously unpaired everything, and gone as far as removing network devices HOWEVER...
I didn't remove the Ethernet, Firewire or Airport Network devices.
Now, I have done so. I REMOVED EVERYTHING
No pairing, no network devices.
Bluetooth was already turned off, and I rebooted.
I turned off tethering and rebooted the iphone.
I turned on bluetooth (on the MBP), I turned on tethering. I browsed for the iphone. It said I was already paired???? Ok, repair AGAIN, and THE IPHONE SHOWED MY BLUETOOTH TETHERING BLUE BAR at the top of the screen!
I opened a web page, no go... d4mn, I was close...
Opened network preferences and the created a new bluetooth PAN and voila! Internet back on the MBP. I am about to reinstall the ethernet and airport (I can live without firewire for now) and see what happens.
Basically, the link I posted two posts ago, I had already done that, but I NEEDED to remove ethernet, firewire and airport as well...
So MAYBE it's fixed, we'll see for how long. I'm not going to mark this as answered for now, because basically, it has failed for no reason, and I want to know why...
Hopefully someone can come up with something, but having to delete and reinstall all pairings and network devices (to me) is not really a solution, it's a workaround (at best).

Digitize Using HDMI on MacBook Pro Retina?

Hi all. I'm considering upgrading to Final Cut X, but I have a question. I just got a new MacBook Pro Retina which has a built-in HDMI port. Is it possible for me to hook up my camcorder via HDMI and then digitize video/audio?
I'm sure it's safe to assume that HDMI cannot provide deck control and timecode, which is fine.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Right as Tom says- not out of the box with the MacBook Pro alone. But you can get this via gear from companies like AJA and Blackmagic.

Hello, Righten.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you want to know if your MacBook Pro will support a 4k display. Here is an article that will answer your question.

Should I Get an iMac, Macbook Pro, or iPad (3rd Generation))

I'm getting a new "computer" this summer, and I was wondering: Which Apple Device is right for me: iPad 3, iMac, or Macbook Pro? I realize WWDC is this summer (a day after I was planning on getting a Macbook Pro, June 10, which is my birthday) and Apple will be releasing/ unveiling their new products there. I realized that the iMac is more bang for your buck, but people are starting to lean towards portable devices, such as laptops over desktops, and tablets over laptops (mostly). I had planned to get a Macbook Pro (when the 2012 models come out) as of Sunday, April 22. But, as I realized that the prices for each are so different, considering their value, I realized this:
iMac:
"Land" - Locked
More Power for money (student discount)
Will last me longer (at least 2.5 years)
Macbook Pro:
Portable
Costs less (as of student discount)
iPad 3:
Even More Portable
Costs even Less.
Considering these, which do think I should get by the following:
Me:
Go upstate every once a month or so.
Going on vacation in the summer w/ family.
Do light gaming (Sims 3, Civ 5, Spore; not much)
Plan on bragging about being the only one in family w/ Mac (bring to relatives' houses to prove a point to my cousin that he's not the one w/ the coolest computer)
Lots of Word Processing (can use pages on iPad)
w/ iPad, I'll have more money to use on accessories (Step dad giving me $500 towards computer, I'll have $350 by June 10)
Mostly do web browsing.
Want to use in school (high school)
If I get an iPad, I can afford to upgrade it every year, but not the Macs
Will be reading lots of books next year (will be taking AP English)
Lots of notes next year (Doing Government in Social Studies next year)
Will use iTunes U if needed
Need something to fit in backpack if using in school.
Not sure if teacher will allow laptops/ tablets.
Mostly do my computing at home
So what do you think? Should I get an iMac, Macbook Pro, or an iPad 3? Thanks! Best answer gets 5 ***** for the long reading!

Wow, using computers in school. I remember when I went, teachers flipped out if you had as much as a cell phone
A couple things I would like to point out:
1.) WWDC /=/ product releases. While it is likely, no one knows for a fact what will happen at WWDC other than usual events. I would expect it, but don't jump the gun and say "a new Mac will be launched at WWDC", because they have been released before WWDC.
2.) The iPad is in a different tier than Mac, IMO. I believe iPads should be supplements to PC's, since if troubleshooting need occur, you must still have a PC to restore. (Mac is PC). So say if you suddenly go into Recovery mode, you will be stuck until you find a PC to restore to. One downfall of iOS devices, so for that reason, I will not recommend the iPad alone.
If you plan to do most of your computing at home, I would get the iMac. I am a college student, and plan on replacing my Macbook Pro (selling it) with an iMac if I can afford it. I agree with you on the "bang for your buck", but even then, iMac is still pricey. With $850, you're still shy $300 of the $1149 price w/education discount. If you want to upgrade your processor (which I would), that's even more $. Plus, software if you need it.
What exactly are you going to do with a Mac that you cannot do with a Windows PC (outside of just using the Mac OS)? The playing field is leveling out quite a bit. But, if you plan on developing of any sort, get a Mac.

HT1420 I have 5 computers already authorized with my Apple ID. How can I add one more. My home has 1 IMAC, 2 Macbook Pros, 1 Ipad and 2 Iphones. Why are you now limiting me to five computers on my Apple ID when I am clearly an Apple product supporter.

I have six products in my home. I can only authorize five using my Apple ID. All my products are Apple - 1 IMAC, 2 MacBook Pros, 2 Iphones and 1 IPAD. This doesn't seem right - We are so Mac'd out in our home and yet we are now being limited to the number of products we can have using the same Apple ID. Any advice as to how to find a workable soliution to this?
Thanks

Authorise Only Applies to Computers... Not Devices...
You state you have 1 IMAC, 2 MacBook Pros, ... this = 3 Computers... you can Authorise up to 5 computers.

MacBook Pro Retina says connected to ethernet, but will not connect

I have a MacBook Pro 13" Retina. It will not connect to my office's network no matter what I do. I've tried different cables, different ports, toggling wifi on and off, inspecting the ports to see if they will recognize other thunderbolt connections and they will. I was able to connect to a Thunderbolt monitor without any issues. It may be the adapter, but there are all kinds of funky-ness going on when I try to assess the network. The thunderbolt heading under System Information claims nothing is connected - even when communicating with the Thunderbolt display. The ethernet connection claims to be working, but will not connect to the internet. It also can't seem to find our router. I've tried to manually enter all the information in using the assistant, but it still can't find it. This is especially frustrating since this computer is under a year old. I can't take it to the Genius Bar because it is owned by my company and contains proprietary info. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello NotAppleSavy,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the computer wont connect to networks. I see you have used network diagnostic. I would recommend that you read this article, there are a lot of other things you can do in this article that may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

I can't get iCal to push entries and sync between my MacBook Pro, my iPad 2 and iPhone.

I have iCal on my Macbook Pro, V4.04 and I can't get entries to sync with my iPad or iPhone. I have all the calendars checked. I have gone to system preferences and Me and manually synced and I doesn't sync.

Subscribe to your calendar in iCal (if you have not done so)
iCal>Preferences>Accounts> click the plus sign and add your MM account, your calendar will appear in iCal, the one you have is probably a local calendar (does it appear under 'On My Mac'?)

Airdrop iPhone to Macbook Pro Retina

I am trying to Airdrop a photo from my iPhone 6 Plus to my Macbook Pro Retina 15" early 2013 and it is not working.
I can Airdrop between my iPad Air 2 and iPhone 6 Plus, but not between my Mac. My Mac can send to my iPhone and iPad. I can see my phone and iPad on my Airdrop menu on the mac but I don't see anything on my phone or iPad when trying to Airdrop.
All devices are up to date and have bluetooth and wifi turned on.

I am also having this issue. My MBP can see my iPhone 6 and drop files to it. I am not able to drop files from iPhone 6 to MBP or ever see it in airdrop.

IPad 3rd gen not charging via wall socket

Ok I'm really annoyed right now, my iPad 3rd gen has suddenly decided not to charge when plugged via adapter to the wall socket. I thought it was the cables fault so I went into the currys store and bought an apple charger, came home and I have the same problem. When I plug my iPad to the wire to charge the battery sign flashes between between charging and not charging and then I get a message saying maybe this device is not compatible with the iPad and now I just keep getting the message saying "not charging". So I plugged the wire to my MacBook and yay the iPad charges, but its a little bit inconvinient for me and I prefer charging via the wall socket. I've tried everything resetting etc I've even done the software update (ios7.1). Can someone please tell me what's going on, am I doing something wrong? Any help would be appreciated! Oh I've also ordered the apple 12w adaptor charger, do you think this will solve the problem? Thank you

You, say, " I thought it was the cables fault", but then you say, "I went into the currys store and bought an apple charger". Did you buy a charger or a cable?
The problem could be the charger. If so, the new 12W charger should solve the problem.

Macbook Pro Retina (late 2013) and support for two external monitor

Hi,
I have a Macbook Pro Retina 13" (Late 2013) and are looking to buy two DELL U2414 monitors. But after searching the web i´m a little bit confused if my MBPr will actually supports connecting two montors from one single Display port.
I will be using this montors at work where I use my MBPr with Windows7 (Paralllels).
I want to set up these two monitors with extended desktop not mirroring. The reason of using just one DP on my MBPr is that the other one is used by my wired ethernet connection. Will this work under OSX10.9.2 or 10.9.3?. Does my MBPr 13" support DP1.2a MST that is needed for daisy chain multiple monitors?

The hardware supports DP1.2 and MST but unfortunately at present OS X Mavericks does not.

Why does my iPad 3rd gen keep saying "not charging"?

My iPad (3rd gen) is frequently saying "not charging" when I plug it into my computer or ac adapter. I'm using Apple cords and adapters, too!

There has to be a power going through to charge it surley , it is ither of or on not low power? . Also daughter judy said '' i have tried ac adapter''. Maybe if you have another device e.g xbox with a usb port in try to connect through there

Most computer usb ports do not provide enough power to properly charge the ipad. If the computer goes to sleep while the ipad is plugged in, it can actually drain the battery. Use a wall charger.

Facetime camera settings on Macbook Pro Retina

Just purchased a new Macbook Pro Retina 13". FaceTime camera settings do not permit adjusting picture. The image is terrible. How can I correct this, or is reliable third party software available for this purpose?

HELPPP! I have brought Macbook Pro Retina

Hello there, iv brought a macbook pro retina and my adobe cs5 package is not displaying right everything is pixlated and its bad for my work as all fonts are pixlated! iv attached some examples, i have a student copy

I believe CS5 does not support the retina display. Retina display support started with the updated version of CS6, and of course also with CC.

My macbook pro retina line out is failing

Hi, on my new macbook pro retina the audio line out is just not working propertly anymore... I always use an external speakers and now, it know only works sometimes, sometimes it plays on the external output, sometimes on the macbook itself (like there is no external thing plugged). In start I tought that could be a problem on the connect, but using headphones I'm having the same problem.
Any chances that I can fix it in home (of course, without needing to open the mac...), or I'm really going to take it to a tech support?
If I need the tech support, I have the Apple Care, but I'm on Brazil (more specifically in Recife), there are a few authorized mac resellers here, I can use my Apple Care on those?

Something like that...yesterday my mbp freeze while I was waching a Movie! It might be temperature issue I think!
