How can I power my macbook in the car.
Want to use my macbook in the car. The power inverters that I have are not working with the current power cord that come with macbook pro. Any options ?
What are the power invert spect that will enable the macbook to be charged /used in the car ?
Thank you
Hey Kanadakid
Recommendation for your consideration:
I use an inverter I purchased at Kmart on sale for about $30.00.
These devices hooked up through the cigg. lighter "convert" your 12 volts D.C. from your car (actually about 13.8 volts ) to 110 volts A.C.(mine 400 watts). It even has a 1" fan and fully fused.
Mine is about 6"x4"x2" and has a near perfect sine wave output: I put in on a 'scope to check it out.
Can run even moderate size TV, Stereos. I plan to charge my brand new iPhone 4S (64G) using it. Staches under the seat.

hi all, i just want to know how can i get a MacBook pro with the configuration i want from apple retail store (in Munich) and not by order it online because in this case i will not be able to benefit from Global blue service for tax free from the airport when i leave Germany.
thanks in advance.You should have probably found out more specifically from the Apple Store just how you could do it online. The obvious solution is to order it from the Apple Danish website store, but I don't know if they ship internationally.

PlZ HELP: How can i format a Macbook without the originals cds and results
Hello
I have a macbook since a couple of years running 10.5.8 OSX. the last months the system is getting a bit slower and since i bought a midi controller which is arriving today i am thinking of making a format. But i havent the original cds. So here are some questions for u mates and plz consider me as a total amateur.
1. Will a format make the performance of my macbook back to its original state when i bought it, like it is done with a pc format?
2. I have ordered this: Mac OS X Snow Leopard International 10.6.3 (upgarde from Leopard). will i be able to do a format with that or i have to oder the original cds (i understand that i will loose iLIfe)
3. I have some programs installed in my macbook and i have some bookmarks i really work with them. so i am thinking of using time mashine before and after format. Should i do that or if i do that then the format thing has no point at cause the macbook will be slow like it is now??
Thank u all for your patience and i really hope u will help me.Call Apple, givre them your serial number and they will send you the original install disks only charging for shipping & handling. You should always have those.
1. A re-format will make your Mac volume blank, after re-installing it would be back to original defaults, but it is usually unnecessary, unless you are experiencing insurmountable problems.
2. Yes, you will be able to format & install. But like I said, you're better off just upgrading.
3. You should always have a backup either TM or SuperDuper or CarbonCopy Cloner. The value of these cloning apps, is that you can boot from them in case you get into trouble on your main drive.
Before you install run Disk Utility > Verify Disk. If you find errors repair until no errors are found.
SuperDuper or CarbonCopy Cloner.

How can i use my macbook as a server
How can i use my macbook as the server of my home network?
Depends on what you want to do with it. To operate as a full fledged "Server" you will need OSX Server Edition software. For simple server operations like file sharing, you can just adjust the sharing options in your preferences.

how can i purchase a macbook air in Nigeria? apple has no shop in the entire country and independent dealers charge ridiculously sometimes more than double the prices of mac products without guarantee of getting it with required specifications. its sad cos Nigeria has a very large apple market plus phones and most recently ipads especially. its been frustrating trying to get a macbook, even have to wait for when someone will travel out of the country, then you send the person(thats if you have the money at that time). Please somebody help inform apple maybe they can do something about this, its really disappointing.

How can I sync my calendars on the MacBook Pro, iCloud, iPad and iPhone? Since upgrading to the newest OS on each device, none of the calendars sync. Any suggestions?
Hi silverk,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand the need for all of your calendars to be up to date across all of your devices and how frustrating it can be when they are not syncing as you would expect. In this situation I would suggest reading over and using the attached article for troubleshooting.

Have a great day,

I have a MacBook which I purchased in 2006. It cannot upgrade to newer operating systems.Since Apple has stopped support to Snow Leopard, how can I keep my MacBook safe? Buying another computer is not an option. Any ideas or suggestions? Many thanks.

Apple still sell, and therefore support, Snow Leopard.
For what it's worth, from my reading of the Snow Leopard EULA (and I would assume that there is similar language in the EULAs for all other operating systems, as well), I'm not seeing any obligation on the part of Apple to provide Security Updates of any kind, period/full stop. The wording appears to be completely "use at your own risk." I have no idea whether this "use at your own risk" would survive a legal challenge, or if such a legal challenge would depend on whether or not Apple is still selling (or even giving away for free) an OS, or whether local law would, according to this, override the EULA. Perhaps this is why Apple never formally announces EOL or discontinuance of support for an OS. They can always claim that they are still supporting an OS, whether or not in any practical sense, they are. There was even a very late Flashback detection and removal script which Apple issued for 10.5 well after it was clear that they had stopped supporting Leopard. This hardly constituted ongoing support, but perhaps it was to deter the threat of legal action, or maybe it was simply out of benevolence. I don't know.
Besides that, even when Apple was still actively "supporting" Snow Leopard, which I don't think it is any longer, "use at your own risk" would still have applied to a case where Apple may have been late with a patch, or a response, or an adequate response, to a zero-day threat, such as Flashback was, which was constantly evolving. Many thousands were affected by that, and, to my knowledge, at least, there was no legal action directed at Apple throughout or after that episode. If there was any, I don't think it succeeded.

How can I reboot my Touch when the screen is frozen and I cannot use the "slide to power off" feature?
Next try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

HT1444 how can I upgrade my macbook from 10.5.8 version to the latest version
how can I upgrade my macbook from OS X 10.5.8 version to the latest version?
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs. You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:

After copying a movie to the harddisk of my MacBook I wanted to also copy it to my iPad, but for this you first have to copy it to the library in iTunes, but this doesn't seem to be working. So how can I get this movie to the library ? And to the iPad ?
How is it not working? And how are you doing it? Drag the movie onto the iTunes icon on the Dock... what happens?

Thank you ！
谢谢！Your question is very abstract, and difficut to understand what you want to do. Do you wish to control your spectrum analyzer for TURN-ON and TURN-OFF power?
Assuming your question is so...
To turn the instrument power OFF, you should look for the GPIB command that can do this in the instrument's operation manual.
To turn the instrument power ON, it is very difficult or almost impossible to do so, because your app program will have no way to communicate with your "unpowered" instrument.
