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.

    How can I install and run a Windows program on my MacBook Pro?

    You have several options.
    1, Use a Virtual Machine like Vmware, Parallels etc... to Create a Virtual Windows Installation and Run your program in there.  A Virtual MAchine will runn in a Window on your Desktop and share your Mac's resources RAM HD space processor. Your MAc desktop will still be available while you run Windows install.

    2. Install Windows on a partition using Bootcamp. It will run a full installation of Windows you can boot into, and run your programs.  The Mac desktop will not available until your reboot the computer and start in OSx instead of Windows.

    3. Use Wine /  Winebottler to run the Application without the need for a complete Windows installation.

    I'm not sure if you can use it in Win 7 as it's very old. Try to use newer versions of Visual Studio or install WinXp with a virtual machine within Mac.

  • Flashing Question mark: New hard drive not working Macbook Pro late 2008

    After following several peoples advice on this forum I decided to upgrade my Macbook Pro late 2008 with a Seagate (1TB) Solid State Hybrid Drive 2.5 inch.
    Heres the device.
    http://www.morecomputers.com/spec.aspx?pn=ST1000LM014
    After creating a mountable boot on a External hard drive with Mavericks install I removed the current hard drive and replaced with the new seagate drive. However it didn't seem to recognize the external hard drive (it is quite old but works perfectly) and went to a flashing grey question mark screen and wouldnt do anything else. Ive tried holding down command-r and option-r but I get nothing. Its just the same flashing question mark. I have done this several times and the same result.
    I put the old drive back in and it works fine.
    I am trying to work out is the problem with the mountable external hard drive OR is it the hard drive is not compatible with my computer?
    Appreciate your help
    Gary

    Sorry I think you may be confused.
    I am trying to install the new Seagate hard drive to my mac (not as an external hard drive).
    I replace the macbook pro hard drive with the seagate drive:
    http://www.morecomputers.com/spec.aspx?pn=ST1000LM014
    I then started up the machine with a usb external hard drive with a boot copy of mavericks on it. However, it just displayed a flashing question mark and wouldnt start booting the osx.
    I am trying to work out is the problem with the mountable external hard drive OR is it the hard drive is not compatible with my computer? Im guessing it must be hard drive. Would it be better to use a USB pen drive as the external hard drive is quite old?
    Does anyone know what the problem could be as the hard drive is brand new.
    Appreciate your help
    Thanks, Gary

  • How can I access my iCloud/iTunes Match music from my Macbook Pro?

    I have iTunes match up and running and syncing to my home computer.  It works perfectly with my iOS devices.  I would also like to access my music from my portable laptop.  How can I do this?  There does not seem to be any obvious way to get to my music in the cloud from my laptop iTunes.

    I don't know how you managed to get Match working on your iOS devices without first enabling it on your computer, but that aside . . .
    Go to the "store" menu and select "enable iTunes Match"  from there you'll need to enter the same Apple ID You used to get it running.  Itunes Match will then scan the library and do its thing.  Generally you should leave it alone and not enable it on your iOS devices until it's all done uploading whatever songs it doesn't match.

  • HT1863 How can I transfer a file of older images from my macbook pro to my new iPad.

    Hi,
    I'd like to take an album of photos on my Macbook Pro and transfer them to my Ipad using iphoto. I have iphoto on each device.

    You can sync photos from your Mac's iTunes to the iPad's Photos app - once they are in Photos then the iPhoto app should see them as well. To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand sidebar of your Mac's iTunes (you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which iPhoto albums to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page.
    You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad -photos synced from a computer can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.

  • I have multiple iPhoto libraries w/ duplicates in several. How can I consolidate and find the dupes? Some photos are versions of the original.

    I have multiple iPhoto libraries w/ duplicates in several. How can I consolidate and find the dupes? Some photos are versions of the original. On my iMac, I also have many folders containing some of the same photos. My computer is used for both personal and business purposes. My libraries should be separated, one for each.

    To merge libraries use iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -  or Aperature
    To find duplicates within an iPhoto library use iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - 
    Photos that are not in an iPhoto library can be imported telling iPhoto not to import duplicates (an imperfect procews) and then IPLM can find the duplicates
    As to keeping seperate libraries - only you can do that - IPLM can move photos between libraries for you but only you can know which photos should be in which library
