How do I add fonts to the MacBook Pro

I want to add some fonts to my MacBook Pro. Where do I put them so they will show up and be useable in the Font List?

Safest way to add fonts for a non-technical user is via the Font Book application that's part of the base system. In its File menu you will find the Add Font... option.
Advantages: no duplicate fonts and can choose whether the font is private or available to all users.
Disadvantage: not geeky enough....

  • How do I add memory to a MacBook Pro?

    How do I add memory to my MacBook Pro?

    You have to open the bottom cover of the MBP to get to the memory slots.  There are about 10 very small screws around the perimeter, some of which are longer than others so you have to be very careful not to mix them up when you take the cover off.  You will need a very small phillips-head screwdriver (small jewelers size).   Once you have removed the screws you may have to gently pry the cover off (there is some sticky stuff inside).  You will then see the RAM slots more or less in the middle of the computer.
    The booklet that came with your MBP has instructions about how to insert/remove the RAM SODIMMs ... there is a plastic tab on each side of the SODIMMs that you push outward and the RAM will pop up slightly ... you can then gently pull it out.   Note there is a slot cut in the pin edge of the SODIMMs ... remember it's orientation so you put the new RAM in the same way.  It only goes in one way.
    It's wise to use the crucial.com Memory Advisor first so you get the exact kind & amount of RAM that is compatible with your MBP.

  • How do I link contacts on the MACBook Pro?

    Is contact linking not available on the MACbook Pro?
    I'm using OSX 10.9.2, Contacts 8.0?
    I can only find how to merge contacts on the MAC but not link them as I can on my iPhone. Am I missing something?

    Hello there, jimmyatpc.
    Although each action is similar in each OS, they are ultimately a bit different. While contacts in Mavericks "merge" and become one contact (unless in different accounts), on iOS 7 when you link 2 contacts they remain two unique contacts and the information is just shared. See the following Knowledge Base article respectively to get a clear explanation of each:
    Contacts (Mavericks): Combine duplicate contacts
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH15079
    If you have more than one card for a contact, you can combine them, preserving all the unique information.
    If the contact cards are in different accounts: You can link them, which retains the separate cards, but displays the combined contact information in one card.If contacts have the same name, the cards are linked automatically.
    If the contact cards are in the same account: You can merged them, which combines the cards into one card.
    If you remove an account with linked cards, the cards simply unlink, and only the cards in that account are removed.
    Add contacts - iPhone
    http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph14a87326
    Unify contacts. If two entries for the same person aren’t linked automatically, you can unify them manually. Edit one of the contacts, tap Edit, then tap Link Contact and choose the other contact entry to link to.
    Linked contacts aren’t merged. If you change or add information in a unified contact, the changes are copied to each source account where that information already exists.
    If you link contacts with different first or last names, the names on the individual cards won’t change, but only one name appears on the unified card. To choose which name appears when you view the unified card, tap Edit, tap the linked card with the name you prefer, then tap Use This Name For Unified Card.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro

  • How does Autodesk Maya run on the MacBook Pro with Retina Display?

    Hello there,
    I'm interested in using the MacBook Pro with Retina Display for Autdesk Maya and wanted find out what people's experiences with that are. It'd be great if anyone can help share their experiences!
    Thanks!

    One thing I do know, is the the UI is very small and menu items/buttons are hard to see. Someone posted a video of a now removed autodesk forum response on how to adjust font sizes .cfg file style, but I tried and it did nothing to the small text in Maya 2014. If you plan on it and don't have button and menu locations memorized by feel, I wouldn't use this software on a macbook pro without an external display, or change the resolution out of retina to use Maya.

  • How do I close pages on the macbook pro before shutting down the computer

    I'm pretty new to this Macbook pro, and I'm not sure that I'm closing it down properly.  How do I properly close pages prior to shutting it down.  It's not like my iphone, where I can close pages down at the bottom of the screen.  Thanks

    Hi thanks for replying.  I had figured that out, but I'm more interested in the fact that I think I'm running with multiple facebook pages running.  When I swipe across the pad, it shows another one of my previous facebook sessions.  I don't think I'm closing these pages down the right way.

  • How do you install Photoshop 5.0 onto the Macbook Pro?

    so i've been trying to install the photoshop elements 5.0 for about a weeeek now...lol & this thing still isnt working! i'm really gettin angry! jk. but i'm serious tho, how do you install this onto the macbook pro?

    OK seriously, I did not want to make you feel stupid, it was in fact the first thing that came to my mind. Now, if you got something from Costco, there is probably a box or a CD with it, which should tell you whether it is a PC version or a Mac version. These apps usually come with items like a camera or maybe a scanner included. Please take the time and check what you got. If there is nothing on the disk telling you it's a Mac-version, youprobably got the wrong thing.
    The Mac version is available via Adobe's website, just look for Photoshop Elements 9, that's the current version. There even is a trial available.
