  • How do I connect wirelessly to my new mac mini from my macbook pro

    Hi, I've just bought a new mac mini, its connected to my HDTV via the HDMI cable....it is showing as it should on my tv screen....but my question is: how do I connect to the mac mini via my macbook pro? I want to be able to control the mac mini wirelessly from my laptop, as the mac mini is going to essentially run my home theatre.
    Thanks in advance

  • I recently bought a macbook pro and i made a new apple id. my last macbook had a different id as well and i was wondering if there's a way of transferring all my music from the other laptop to the new one without having to use my old apple id?

    i recently bought a macbook pro and i made a new apple id. my last macbook had a different id as well and i was wondering if there's a way of transferring all my music from the other laptop to the new one without having to use my old apple id? if it makes any type of difference i have an iphone 5 so i tried transfering the music but it only transfered certain things and not my entire album.

    Making a new Apple ID was the worst thing you could of done. This is very bad to do. Not sure why people do that. Your Apple ID is Your Apple ID. You only need one and it is best to only have one Apple ID for all apple devices.
    Sorry I don't have any suggestions for you.

  • How do I use AirPort Extreme to be able print from my MacBook Pro AND a PC. If I connect printer into AirPort, I can only print on laptop. If printer is connected to PC hard drive, I can only print on desk top. How do I configure this to make both print?

    If you have not already done so, your chances will really improve if you....
    1) Connect the printer to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme
    2) Download and install Bonjour Print Services for Windows on the PC

  • How can i Flash and restore the firmware ( EFI ) from a Macbook pro ( late 2008 , 5.1 ) ??

    How can i Flash and restore the firmware ( EFI ) from a Macbook pro ( late 2008 , 5.1 ) ??
    Please help me !!

    The Seagate backup drive I bought doesn't support 10.5.8
    The only reason I can see for that is it's formatted NTFS, which would likely be Read Only in 10.5.x, if you can reformat it MacOS extended, which would erase everything on it now, then that should work for your purposes.

  • TS3899 How can I see again the emails sent from my MacBook Pro on my iPhone 4?

    Hi. I have a iPhone 4 connected to a Yahoo email account. I used to be able to see the emails sent from the device on the sent mailbox and the emails sent from the MacBook Pro on an automatically created folder called "Sent Messages" that disappeared. I tried deleting the account and creating it again, both on the computer and on the iPhone, but the problem persists. Any idea on how I can solve this problem?

    On your Mac
    in your Mail App, open the folders on the left hand side, by clicking SHOW on top.
    GO down, where your email acount is and unfold.
    Select the SENT folder. If you cant find it, it means it's already used as your SENT folder. Skip next step.
    In Mail App Menu select MAILBOX -> USE THIS MAILBOX FOR -> SENT
    Maybe that does the trick?

  • Move hard disk with OS X installation from one MacBook Pro to another

    Hi all,
    I'm switching from my Unibody MacBook 17" to a Unibody MacBook 13". I want to keep my current hard disk including the OS X installation and all installed applications from my MacBook 17".
    Can I just move the hard disk from my MacBook 17" to my MacBook 13" and expect OS X (and the installed applications) to work without any problems?
    Many thanks and all the best,
    Michael

    Hi Kurt,
    many thanks for your reply. I don't have a firewire cable and there is only a single hard disk involved (the MacBook 13" will only come with a 250 GB hard disk, which is too small to hold all the information from my current 500 GB hard disk).
    What I could do is to physically move my current 500 GB hard disk from my 17" to my 13", reinstall OS X with the DVD coming with my 13" and then restore from my time capsule during install. That should work and avoid the driver problems which you mentioned, right?
    Many thanks and all the best,
    Michael

  • I was wondering how to make Movies I have created in iMovie show up on my apple TV?

    I just bought apple TV and have been able to use music from two computers ,got photos to show up,but have not been able to play iMovies I have made. When I go to the Apple TV and open the imovies, it tells me, no movies. I have tried to drag the imovies over into itunes ,but still no luck. Any suggestions
    Thanks

    Movies cannot be organised into folders on the Apple TV, the article linked to above works only with the Apple TV 1. You can use genres and playlists to a certain extent but it doesn't get anywhere near the organisation available on the Apple TV 1.
    If you have any suggestions that you think might enhance the Apple TV you can send Apple your feedback here.

  • How do I move my default final cut file location from the hard disk to an external thunderbolt drive?

    I have FCPX and just bought a MUCH faster TB external drive and don't want to work off the internal hard drive anymore due to speed and space.  When I first open FC it shows my external (Lacie) drive but then goes away and only shows the internal Mac drive.  I cannot figure out why it would find the Final Cut Projects and Events files on the external hard drive and then make them go away.  Please help if you know the answer.  Thanks.

    I've experienced that behavior if the external drive has a file named something like AVCHD, DCIM, movies or similar at the root level of the drive.

  • How to get address book from Mac desktop to a MacBook Pro

    I recently bought a MacBook Pro 13" with Lion.  I have a IMac desktop and want to put my address book from it to the MacBook Pro and don't know how to do it.  Can someone help me with this?  I also need to move my word documents. I have Microsoft Word for Mac 2004, Version 11.6.3 on the desktop. Is it possible to move over also? 

    Office 2004 wont work on Lion 10.7. You should upgrade. From your iMac:
    User/Library/Application Support. Copy the AddressBook folder to the desktop of your new MBP. On the MBP:
    From the Finder. Hold down the option key and click on Go from the menu and select Library. That'll open the User/Library folder. Open the Application Support folder and put your AddressBook folder there. Moving documents: Connect the two with firewire cables. The iMac should be shut down. Boot the iMac while holding down the 't' key. That'll boot it into target disk mode and you should see the iMac's hard drive on the MBP's desktop. Copy the files over.

  • How do I boot up the iBook G4 from my MacBook Pro?

    Hello, and thank you in advance for your help. I have an old iBook G4 with a display that doesn't work, and I have been googling all day for an answer to this - I want to either remote desktop or use my MacBook Pro as an external display.
    I +don't think+ that I want to use target disk mode (which does work), but you may persuade me otherwise, if I'm able to use the iBook in some way like that. I have tried this, but I can't open up system preferences as it's an older version of the software...
    Background:
    1. I have VGA connectors for both machines, and also a connector cable.
    2. I have Firewire to Firewire cable
    3. I have Ethernet cables
    4. The MacBook Pro is connected to the internet, but I'm finding it impossible to connect the iBook, because I can't see the screen.
    5. I'm pretty sure that the iBook G4's logic board is the reason the display doesn't show, but when I opened it up, there was already a shim over the suspect chip? Looked like someone had already tried a repair on it, even though I bought it new. Bizarre. I've also tried a very simple solder reflow method with a soldering iron, but neither of these worked. Luckily, the iBook still boots, but doesn't display still.
    6. So my last resort is to try to use it with an external display - but I want to test this first, before I buy one, and the only thing I have is my MBP....
    7. MBP software is at 10.6.2, iBook G4 is 10.1 I think, but it's been two years.
    Thanks again for your help...

    There are a few notes about the video problem some iBook G4s experienced
    and some user tales of homebrewed fixes, in the results from a Google search
    of these terms: *ibook G4 video problem shim.* (GPU: graphic processor unit.)
    Another idea is to look into the *Cory Arnold Effect*. One of his posts in Discussions
    (2006) appears here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3249364
    +If you or someone else has already tried to re-flow solder on the suspected weak+
    +areas of a logic board, & there are continued issues, then the board may be shot.+
    While some location searches may find different results, and that may be a
    problem when checking content via a search engine. Looking worldwide,
    yet maybe too closely at your Aussie content first; it may miss some of them.
    There are several references and I have read of them, over the past four years.
    Good luck & happy computing!
