Hi, I have a MacBook Pro on Maverick. I recently got squeezed into an iPhoto upgrade, all photos for 2012/13 have gone. It tells me I have 17000
Hi, I have a MacBook Pro on Maverick 10.9.1. I recently got squeezed into an iPhoto upgrade I didn't want to do. When it had finished, all photos for 2012 -2013 had disappeared and instead of it saying I had about 6000 photos, it now thinks there are 17000+ despite there being about half of them missing? And no, I didn't think I would need an upgrade.
I may have back up these onto a time capsule but the voltage I am getting at the moment (Tanzania) isn't enough to start it up to check. My feeling is that they are still on the nard disk and can be rescued. But how??? Thanks
To be safe from automatic updates that you do not want, i.e., on a slow network, change your System Preferences for the AppStore. Disable downloads in the background and automatic install, and leave only security updates enabled, so you do not miss them.

What exactly did you do, after iPhoto updated? This looks, like you imported your iphoto library instead of upgrading it. If you cannot find the original library, you really should try to restore the library from the backup. How long will it be, until you get to a better power supply?
Do you keep your iPhoto library on an external drive or on your system drive?
Try to search for a file called "Library6.iPhoto". This file is part of any iPhoto Library. To search your entire mac download
Find Any File , as described here in Old Toad's post:
Re: Where is my iPhoto Library? It is not in my Pictures folder, and I cannot find it through Finder. Help!

I am trying to find an app or software to burn iMovie 11 slideshow to a dvd. I have a MacBook Pro with Mavericks. There are a lot of DVD Creator apps at the App store. Looking for a recommendation of what to use and tips. Thank you.
I've been using "Burn" for years and it has been the only DVD burning software I have ever used for the mac. I have never needed to look at other apps. Unless you want something that has more bells and whistles such as Roxio's "Toast" : http://www.roxio.com/enu/products/toast/pro/overview.html
There are thousands of quality free apps out there for the mac that are not part of the App Store. All you have to do is read reviews online, do a little search, the Apple forums are full of recommendations from experienced users that have been here for years... -
I have a MacBook Pro model 7.1 running 10.6.8; need to upgrade to Mavericks...question concerns 3 software apps: Reunion 10, Quicken 2007, Appleworks 6.2.9 (word processing docs). Any recommendations?
Quicken Essentials is universally loathed on this forum. Quicken 2007 updated for Lion, Mt. Lion and Mavericks for $15 is the way to go:

Appleworks 6:
Partition your hard drive or add an external drive and install Snow Leopard and use the "dual-boot" method to run Appleworks; and/or
Install Snow Leopard Server (available by telephone order only from the Apple Store 1.800.MYAPPLE [1.800.692.7753]; part number - MC588Z/A) into Parallels and run Appleworks (and most other PowerPC apps) concurrently with Mavericks:

I have a MacBook Pro, 15-inch, Mid 2009. I would love to upgrade to a Solid State Drive. What is the best possible upgrade I can buy. I need the specs and even brand name. Thank you to anyone who can help.
A 15" mid-2009 MBP RAM specifications are: 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM.
As has been pointed out, OWC is an excellent source for Mac compatible RAM. Crucial is another first rate source for Mac RAM. RAM from either vendor will work just as well as any purchased from Apple with the bonus of being less expensive and having a lifetime guarantee.

Hi, I have a macbook pro 17" 2.4ghz intel core 2 duo 2007, will upgrading to Yosemite slow me down or create problems with my Iphone or other app ?
Yes, i do not suggest upgrading right now. There is some software malfunction or glitch that spontaneously shuts down this specific model. I upgraded and it was a pain to downgrade and make my mac usable again.

I have a MacBook Pro 7.1, it has 4GB of RAM, can I upgrade it to 8GB?
You have got a Mid 2010 13-inch MacBook Pro, and it supports up to 16 GB of RAM, so you can install 8 GB of RAM. You can buy more memory at OWC or Crucial

I have a macbook pro with OSX 10.5.8. How do I upgrade to Mountain Lion when it is available? I need to upgrade to run quickbooks and other apps
First, you need Snow Leopard (10.6): http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A. Then you use Software Update to update it to 10.6.8. When Mountain Lion (10.8) comes out, find it in the Mac App Store.

hello,i have a macbook pro and i just recently downloaded facetime, and now i cant use it, it says An internal FaceTime error occurred,i dont know how to fix it, please help.
If your webcam is powered by USB, make sure it is attached directly to your Mac and not a USB hub. In my case, I had my Rocketfish webcam attached to a peripheral USB hub and it wasn't drawing enough power to operate at capacity. Therefore, Facetime was quitting on me and giving me that exact error message. Once I attached the webcam directly to my Mac USB port, problem solved. Hope that helps.

I have a macbook pro. The wireless is always conected but it keeps stopping uring browsing for some minutes. However i am using teh same wireless on my iphone and it wok normaly without any stop or cut. Any help please?
I'm having the same issue. Different programs though, it's mostly browsers and adobe products. I thought maybe it was heat related but it's not. It seems that as soon as Lion was about to be released, the updates were updating in preparation for Lion. I delayed updating the software updates because Adobe (my career) isn't totally compatible with Lion yet. Before I even started getting update notifications, though, within the recent week, it's freezing up constantly. I don't know what to do. It seems to be happening with my brower choice, I'm using Firefox and Chrome as my main browsers. I keep alot of sessions open but that shouldn't cause (and has never caused) this constant freezing issue. I did install some extensions in Chrome and Firefox, maybe that's the problem... The issues began after those were installed though, 3 weeks to a month later... Maybe the software updates (that I installed thinking it would correct the freezing issue), maybe they are preventing other browsers ? Maybe Apple is getting rid of Chrome and Firefox ? I'm not having issues with Safari (yet) though I just opened it for the first time in 2 months... only because the macbook is freezing (and it's also rebooting while asleep, closing all of my projects and not saving them)...
My Macbook Pro is the same year and the HDD is a year new. The manufacture recall had the video whatever replaced a few months ago.
I've never had these kinds of problems with an Apple computer. I'm using Snow Leopard and I'm very attached to this laptop ! It's configured perfectly.
Why oh why does it freeze constantly within the recent 1-2 weeks ?
Someone please help us ! -
I have a MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard OS 10.6.8 but want to upgrade to Lion. My Mac that has an Intel Core Duo Processor (I know really outdated huh) but to upgrade to Lion OS X I need an Intel Core2 Duo. Can I upgrade or will it mess it up?
It actually shouldn't allow you to upgrade. Your configuration should be detected and then it should reject your attempt to upgrade.

Hi There,
I have a MacBook Pro (late 2011) and a Thundertbolt Display. I have recently upgraded to Yosemite. Since then Thunderbolt Firmware update 1.2 keeps reappearing and I cannot complete the update (with and without display connected etc.). Any advice? Thanks.Hello HTG65,
If the Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2: Keeps reappearing try reinstalling it following the steps in this article.
Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2: Keeps reappearing and Thunderbolt ports and Target Display Mode may not work - Apple Support
To resolve this issue:
Shutdown your computer.
Disconnect all Thunderbolt devices.
Wait 10 seconds.
If you are using a Mac mini with a Thunderbolt display, reconnect the Thunderbolt display directly to your computer via the Thunderbolt port. Do not connect other Thunderbolt devices at this time.
Restart your computer.
If the Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2 is offered, download and install it and restart your computer when asked. If the Thunderbolt Update is not offered, the update has installed correctly.
Reconnect all Thunderbolt devices.
Take care,

Any ideas on a patch or fix for the Airplay mirroing feature to AppleTV? Home sharing to AppleTV is also broken after I upgraded to Mavericks 10.9.2.
Thanks.I do not get the Airplay icon on my Macbook's menu bar. I have checked the box in the Display settings to show mirroring options but still no icon. Airplay Display shows 'No device Detected'. Both AppleTV and MacBook Pro are on the same physical Network (192.168.1.0/24) and connected directly to my home ethernet switch (not wirelessly). I also made sure MacBook's Firewall is disable. Airplay feature use to work before upgrade to 10.9.2. As far as Home sharing from my AppleTV has a similar issue; it just does not find my MacBook after a while of loading and searching my music library. I am logged in to icloud on both devices (appletv and macbook). Also use to work before upgrade. Any ideas or recommendations. Thanks.

HAVE A MACBOOK PRO 2006 WITH NO OPERATING SYSTEM ON IT WHAT OSX DO I NEED FOR A FRESH INSTALL
I had to install new hhd and have no luck w/reinstall disc, so I believe I need retail disc does it matter what version of osx I use?
There were numerous MacBook Pros released in 2006. http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/index-macbookpro.html
The earliest came with OS 10.4.5 installed, but the max is OS 10.6.x. The last came with OS 10.4.8 installed, but the max is OS 10.7.x.
If you are able to get the original install discs from Apple, you should probably upgrade to OS 10.6.x or 10.7.x.
Cheers, Tom
