How can we shut off messaging on the Mac book pro?

I have just purchased a Mac Book Pro for one of my kids. We have iPads and iPhones etc in the household. With his new laptop the messaging feature means that whenever anyone face times or messages a different family member, he also gets that on his laptop. How can we prevent this?

Messages > Preferences > Accounts. Remove the Apple ID that he shares with your family.

How can i change when i start the mac book pro, between mac and win?

when i start the mac book pro, between mac and win?

If you want to set which OS your system boots into (provided Windows is installed using BootCamp and not a virtualization option such as Parallels, Fusion, or VirtualBox), just hold the "Option" key down when you turn your computer on. Continue to hold the key down until you see the options for booting into the OS of your choice. Just click on the arrow under the one you wish (tap to click won't work here if you have it enabled... you'll need to physically click the trackpad). If you want to change which OS your system normally boots into, just go into System Preferences in OS X and select "Starup Disk". Whichever OS you select here will be the OS your system will automatically boot into.

How can I shut off all of the pop-up windows for all the Firefox updates?

How can I shut off all of the pop-up windows for all the Firefox and Thunderbird updates?
Apparently now Mozilla creates new versions of their browser and email apps every two weeks instead of just creating updates... I'm tired of all of the pop-up requests for these constant installation requests and all the problems that the new version installations create... I just want to use the software and be left alone.
I can't find a way to make Firefox and Thunderbird stop with the pop-up requests for new installations... is there a way to do this or has Mozilla just got it rigged so one can't just use the software without re-installing a new version every two weeks and running in to new plugin issues and missing features every time?
Help!
Thanks,

How can I retrieve deleted trash on a mac book pro?

How can I retrieve deleted trash on a mac book pro? I inadvertently trashed and then deleted a file from my computer. Is there any way to retrieve it?

Only be using data rescue software - and there's always the chance that the file has already been overwritten.
I've used Data Rescue 3 to succesfully retrieve files that I've trashed. It's an $100 gamble, tough, and there's no assurance that you'll be able to retriebve the file.

thanks guys.

Do you really need more? OS X comes with quite a few already: Gungseo, HeadlineA, Nanum Brush, Nanum Gothic, NanumMyungjo, Nanum Pen, PCMyungjo, PilGi, AppleGothic, AppleMyungjo
If so, just do a google search for korean unicode fonts.

TS3477 How can I view movies, pictures, etc from Mac Book Pro (bought in he States) on a Sony TV(in Europe). Do you have change the settings on the Mac to comply with the european TV ?

I have a Mac book pro ( 7,1 version ) bought in the US and want to see some videos, pictures and movies on a Sony TV with HDMI connection (in Europe).
When connecting both the pc and the tv, I get on the tv the opening screen of a mac book pro but although a movie is playing on the pc it does not show on the tv. Do I have to change something in the displays on the system preference screen ?
Thanks for helping out.

By 'opening screen' do you mean the spiral galaxy desktop? If so, then, with the TV connected to the MBP, open System Preferences ➜ Displays ➜ Arrangement. You will see an image of two screens. At the top of the smaller of the two screens in the image is a small bar, this represents the menu bar at the top of your display. Drag this small bar to the top of the larger of the two screens in the image. The menu bar and dock will now appear on the TV which is now the primary display and all the action will take place there.

How can I do live streaming with a Mac Book Pro 2011, using a new model of Sony HD camcorder which does not have firewire out/input? it comes only with a component video output, USB, HDMI and composite RCA output?

I need to do live streaming with a Mac Book Pro 2011, using a new model of Sony HD camcorder (http://store.sony.co...ber=HDRAX2000/H) ..this camcorder model does not have firewire out/input ..it comes only with a component video output, USB, HDMI and composite A/V video output..
I wonder how can I plug this camcorder to the firewire port of my laptop? Browsing on internet I found that Grass Valley Company produces this converter http://www.amazon.co...=A17MC6HOH9AVE6 ..but I am not sure -not even after checking the amazon reviews- if this device will send the video signal through firewire to my laptop, in order to live streaming properly? ..anyone in this forum could help me please?
Thanx

I can't broadcast with the built in iSight webcam... how would I zoom in or zoom out? or how would I pan? I've seem people doing it walking with their laptops but that's not an option for me... there's nothing wrong with my USB ports but that's neither an option to stream video because as far as I know through USB you can't connect video in apple operating systems ..you can for sure plug any video cam or photo camera through usb but as a drive to transfer data not as a live video camera... is by firewire an old interface developed by apple that you can connect all sorts of cameras to apple computers... unfortunately my new sony HDR-AX2000 camcorder doesn't have firewire output...
thanx

What is the normal shut down time for the mac book pro retina display (late 2013). Mine takes around 20 secs.Is this normal or should i be worried ?

Hi I got a new mac book pro retina display of 8G ram and 256GB ssd (late 2013 model). I was trying to shut down.It was taking around 20-30 secs.Is this normal? When i say shutdown i mean , i just login and shutdown.Do nothing else. I repeated the same process for 4 or 5 times. The numbers are the same.
The boot up takes around 15 secs. Are the numbers crazy or normal.
Any reply would be helpful.Thanks.

How can i create dvds on my new mac book pro

I just purchased a new mac book pro retina and cant create dvds?

Apple decision to remove iDVD will deter me from recommending Mac to fellow Windows users.
Many other Mac users feel the same way.
Leave feedback here:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
http://www.apple.com/feedback/idvd.html
Now that my newly bought Mac does not provided a avenue for me to burnt DVDs, I am
really disappointed.
If you are still within your 15 day return period. Call Apple they will sent out iDVD at no charge. (There are no realistic substitutes.)
Nicely explain that you may return the computer without iDVD. That usually does the trick. You MUST speak to a senior advisor to get a free copy. The first tier people cannot do it.

If that doesn't work you can purchase iLife 11 (includes iDVD) on disk.
IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

Hard disk stop working how can recovery may new hard disk on mac book pro and i not have recovery disk the recovery is installed in soped hard disk

i have macbook pro the recovery is in hard disk and not have recovery disk and hard disk stop working now i want to change hard disk but how can i recovery my macbook pro can help me ?

"it shows macintosh HD OSX 10.9.5 but the hard drive that is supposed to be in the upper right corner is not showing up. So it is booting from that drive."
Ok go to "Finder" preferences and make sure the "Hard disk" box is checked.
That will make your boot disk show up in the upper right corner. You can tell it's a boot disk because all the files will look like this instead of just being blank files.
