Help With Increasing Storage: MacBook Pro (Summer 2009) Aluminum Unibody

Can anyone recommend an online store and a certain product that will provide me with the means to increase the disk space of my hard drive? I bought this MacBook with 160GB and would like to increase it by at least 50GB or so (although if they only come in sets of 160GB or something, so be it). I would also like the links to any blogs or video tutorials explaining how to implement the new storage on my own, as the Apple Store recommends we do it on our own.
Thanks.

You cannot simply increase the storage space of an existing drive, but you can replace it with a larger drive. Suitable drives are available in capacities up to 1 TB. A good source is OWC.

Have situation on a unprotected wireless when accessing I cannot get a router address. I'm on system 10.6.8 on MacBook Pro summer 2009. Any thoughts on how to determine what's up?

You have basically verified that the issue is NOT with your MBP, but with this particular Wi-Fi network. Even though it may be unsecured, the provider may have elected to configure it for MAC filtering. In this case I am referring to the MAC (Media Access Control) address and not your Mac laptop itself. If this has been enabled, your Mac would only be able to connect if the Mac's MAC address was added to that filter.

Airdrop gone with Yosemite on MacBook Pro mid 2009

Why was Airdrop removed on a MacBook Pro mid 2009? It worked just fine under Mavericks and before. How do I get it back?
Steffen

After several restarts of the older Mac, they now see each other in the Airdrop window. I forgot to write that I already set the Airdrop window on the newer Mac to show older Macs before. The restarts helped in a way. I don't know what was wrong.

Any Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter with audio for macbook pro mid 2009

connecting MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2009) to Hisense TV with audio?!?!!?
hello everyone.
if anyone is familar with successfully getting the older macbook pros that dont support audio out to stream and preform digital audio on a TV or has any helpful information that will get me familiar with trying to successfully stream audio and visual. and can PLEASE HELP ME in any way to understand what they know and teach me how to solve my problem id really appreciate it.
i want to connect my MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2009) to my Hisense LED LCD TV, ModelNumber:40H3E and getting digital audio sound from my TV as well as video, but have no clue on how or where to even start to successfully pairing the two and getting sound.
I own a MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2009) this MacBook model doesnt support an HDMI port. My MacBooks model has the Mini Displayport which supports video out but does not support audio out. Can someone help me by telling me exactly which Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter with audio will support my model MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2009) and exactly what HDMI wire do i need to buy that will successfully preform digital audio and sadisfying quality visual through TV?
i have NO expierence with the proccess have NO knowledge about any of this or these Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters with audio. i have no idea what kind of adapter and HDMI cord to buy that will give me sound from my tv for my type of macbook. '
im not familar AT ALL with any of this so i hope me giving you my MacBook Pros make and model and my TV's model number will be enough information for someone to help me.
just please give me anything you can on this topic
thank you so much,

With a 2009 MacBook Pro, you need to use two connections to your TV: one for video and another one for audio. The miniDisplayPort on the 2009 models does not support audio, so you need a separate audio cable:
miniDisplayPort adapter for video - I use the Apple miniDisplayport-DVI adapter + a DVI-HDMI cable like this one
audio cable for audio - use a 3.5mm male stereo-to-2xRCA male cable like this one
Connect the miniDisplayport adapter + DVI/HDMI cable to your MacBook Pro's miniDisplayPort output and the HDMI input on your TV
Connect the audio cable to your MacBook Pro's audio out and your TV's audio in
The only potential gotcha is if your Hisense TV requires audio via the HDMI cable when you use an HDMI cable. The H3e user manual is unclear about this.

Help with backing up Macbook Pro C2D

Hi - I've been searching around the Internet and have come across countless threads about backing up a Macbook Pro, but most seem to be outdated.
My wife has a Macbook Pro 15" Core 2 Duo which is currently running 10.4.11. We've been throwing around the idea of upgrading, but decided we'll just update the OS (so we can use iTunes/sync iPhone). I've read a lot of the same suggestion - backup the hard drive. This has never been done on this laptop, so I am most certainly overdue.
With that being said, what is the easiest (and preferrably cheapest) way to backup my entire laptop? I don't own any external harddrives, but I would be willing to purchase if it's the cheapest option. Cloud storage would be great, but I'm not sure which companies provide the best service (some I've seen only backs up data like pictures and documents, not the actual OS and applications). I don't have a 10.4 CD in case the 10.6 install fails. I also don't have any of my software CDs such as Microsoft Office.
I'm open to any suggestions and I apologize for my post - I'm sure it's something that comes up often, but I want to make sure I have current feedback.
Thanks,

Courcoul, thanks so much for your help. I'm currently searching for an external harddrive w/ Firewire - they certainly try to trick the consumer with selling a USB 3.0 with the option to "upgrade" to firewire.
A 500GB drive should do it, which would you recommend out of these options:

(or any others you may be able to suggest)

HELP!!! Macbook pro early 2009 or late 2008 shutting down

I purchased my macbook pro in january 2009. I have recently had an issue with it randomly shutting down, and then not starting back up until 2 or 3 times. It then starts but doesn't stay on very long. Do to the fact that it is an older laptop, Apple Genius bar is not willing to work on it!! I also have not been able to find my original install disks so I cannot run AHT
What I have tried:
Resetting PRAM
Resetting SMC
ran disk utility (harddrive is ok)
replaced battery (which really seemed to be the issue)
checked all updates
I have looked through some of the system information and everything seems to be normal from what I can tell.
HELP I don't know what else to do or how to find out what's wrong! I am a photographer and I néed my laptop for work!!!

Hi V,
Even though the symptoms don't match up exactly, you may have the NVIDIA issue. First, go to System Profiler > Hardware > Graphics/Displays and see if you have the GeForce 8600M GT GPU. This is the GPU covered under the free repair program. While there, also look at PCIe Lane Width. If it says anything other than x16, the GPU has issues (but this is only one potential symptom). If you have the 8600 GPU, bring the MBP to an Apple Store or AASP for free testing. If Apple's free test confirms the issue, repair is free. Read all about it here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377
Also, whether you have the 8600 or not, you should run all the updates in Software Update.

Can Someone help me please

JoshOhara,
if you run your MacBook Pro’s Apple Hardware Test from its grey Applications Install DVD, does it detect any problems with its hardware?

HT1752 need some help with a '07 macbook pro

need help with my wifes old MacBook pro she had found it during our last move apple said its vintage and they couldn't help

Please indicate what problems you have encountered and provide as much detail as you can. The exact model of the MBP and the Operating System would be useful pieces of information.
Ciao.

Asking for help with purchase of Macbook Pro

Hi all,
I am looking to buy a 15" Macbook Pro for my 15-year old daughter. The configuration I have found is:
2.4GHz Intel Core i7 Quad-Core
4GB of DDR3 RAM
750GB 5400rpm Hard Drive
AMD Radeon HD 6770M 1GB Graphics
15.4" LED-Backlit Glossy Display
1400 x 900 Native Resolution
Slot-Loading SuperDrive
802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR
FaceTime HD Camera, Built-in Microphone
May Ship with OS X Lion or Mountain Lion
Obviously for a teenager she will be using it for facetime and the like. It would also be used for school work and games. She is not a big gamer, but does like the Sims 3.
My first question is are the specs ok? And other than the memory, which I plan to upgrade to 8, is ther anything I should look for? Is 2.4 ghz enough or do I need to get a faster processor?
Thank you in advance,
George

It appears that you have selected a refurbished late 2011 MBP. About three weeks ago I got may late 2011 17" refurbished MBP. Excellent machine and it is the third refurbished one I have gotten. I consider that a fiscally prudent approach in purchasing a MBP.
The MBP that you have chosen is a good performer and the addition of RAM is a wise move. I think your daughter should be just fine with this unit.
Mt Lion is new to me and there are several aspects that do not thrill me. If the MBP is shipped with Lion, do not be in a rush to upgrade but DO get the upgrade code so that if you do decide later to install the new OS, you will not have to pay for it.

Need help with refurb. Macbook Pro purchase.

I'm looking at buying a refurbished Macbook Pro. What's the diff between a 2.2g quadcore and a 2.0g quadcore? Or what's faster, a quad 2.0 with 8 gigs ram or a quad 2.2 with 4 gigs? I will be using it for writing and recording music.
Thanks in advance,
The Guy

You're looking at the 15", correct. Obviously, the 2.2 is faster, but a big difference between the two is the GPU, with the 2.2 having 1GB of video memory...big difference you will notice. Don't worry about RAM, as you can upgrade that yourself cheaper than Apple charges for RAM.

Cleaning macbook pro screen and aluminum unibody

what should i used to clean the aluminum unibody, when it comes to the lcd screen i know alcohol and other solutions are bad for lcd because of the thin flim layer but the macbook pro has glass so it should'nt hurt the screen to use those kind of products.

Through all my different careers, I have learned it takes an oil to break down an oil. I have had this problem where no matter how clean my hands are, and using isoprophil alchohol or iKlear, it still doesnt remove the oil residue off the keyboard or alluminum unibody. So what i did was dampen a cloth with "gook off", which is an oil or sticky residue remover. This actually made it greasier, but after rubbing my Pro with Gook off and then cleaning off the Gook off with alcohol, the residue was gone! I do this every so often when the keyboard gets shiny or I see oil residue below the keyboard where my palms rest. Rub Gook off using hard pressure, then remove the gook off with alcohol or iKlear, or whatever watered down cleaner you prefer. This is the only method that has worked for me and my school that actually works, leaving my Pro and the student laptops looking brand new. I do not recomend this for the screen because I have not tried it yet and have not needed to try it on the screen. Rub hard!

2 issues with 13" MacBook Pro (Summer 2009)

(This is my first Mac, by the way.)
1) and most important: I'm really kind of shocked how poor the font rendering is. I kind of expected it on the web since I've seen the same problems in browsers on non-Microsoft systems like Linux--something about the Microsoft font thing--but I see poor fonts in other apps and even the OS. Like right now if I open my folder in Finder, there are four of the letter U's displayed in icon view. The ones in Documents and Music are blurred on the left side, but the ones in Public and Pictures look more solid. This is just a single example; the same sort of situation is everywhere. All setting are default, although I did try various "font smoothing" options to no avail. Is my screen defective, maybe?
2) the font size is, IMHO, ridiculously small. Can I do anything, system-wide, to change this. No, I'm not visually impaired. I don't want to cause more problems by "fixing" this one, though (as I've seen happen with changing DPI, etc. in Windows on some LCDs whose native resolution was way too high for their size). I can live with this size, if I have to, but #1 is a real killer.

I'll just assume no one can help then...

Help with Purchasing new Macbook Pro

I have decided on going with the new 17in model. What I am havening problems deciding is if I should get the 5400 or 7200 rpm drive after reading all of the posts here. I was originally going to get the 7200 but am now leaning towards the 5400. Is anyone having good luck with their 7200 drive? So I skip the 7200?

Buy the machine with the standard 500GB 5400RPM drive, and if you want a 7200RPM drive, order one yourself from an online vendor. You'll get a longer warranty on it than Apple would give you, and for only $30-40 more than the 7200 RPM drive from Apple, you'll have two 500GB drives: the 7200 RPM that you'll install internally (a ten-minute job for which the instructions are in your MBP's manual), and the 5400 RPM standard drive for use as an external backup.

Need help with my new Macbook Pro please!

I recently bought the new Macbook retina and I managed to copy all my email from my old mac to the new one however now whenever I receive an email, it automatically gets sent to junk, and I have to mark it as not junk each time.
It never used to do this on my old mac it was just now recently when I got this new one and I've not been able to solve this problem yet.
Also there is an annoying thing I notcied that every box when quitting any application appears to select one option of two ( I didn't know how to put it in words but hope the attachments explain what I mean )
How can I overcome the email problem as well as the other unknown problem?
Regards
