How can i add my macbook pro to my icloud

I have a macbook pro and I have iCloud on it but it isn't blending with my other devices that I have bought more storage with. If I look on find my phone it isn't listed on there. Also I am out of iCloud storage on the macbook when I should have plenty cause I bought extra. Please help me merge my book with the rest of my apple family.

The first question is how many iCloud accounts are you using with your various devices? They should all be using the same Apple ID/password. Look at each device/computer and check to see which account (which ID) they each use.

Mini-Display Port == ThunderBolt.
In other words, just plug it in.

Click here and follow the instructions. If the computer originally shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, when you reach step 5, insert its original disk, restart with the C key held down, use the Disk Utility to erase the internal drive, and install a fresh OS.

How do I connect my MacBook pro to the Internet through the 3G server on my iPhone?

Does anyone know how to connect my MacBook pro to the Internet through the 3G server on my iPhone?

There is a service called Personal Hotspot that uses your iPhone's connection to share with other devices. You will need to sign up for this service through your carrier. Good luck

How do i deregister my MacBook Pro from the current apple ID that it is connected to?

I just got a new MacBook Pro laptop and i unintentionally registered it with an apple ID which i dont wish it to be registered to. How could i "deregister" from the apple ID I am currently connected to? Anything helps, thanks!

zitzerman,
you’d need to boot into Recovery mode by holding down ⌘R as your MacBook Pro starts up. When the OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. Run Disk Utility to completely erase your internal disk; after it’s been erased, exit Disk Utility and select Shut Down from the Apple menu. When you restart it, OS X Internet Recovery will redownload your MacBook Pro’s original version of OS X from Apple’s servers, and then install it. When you run it, the welcome video will play; reïnitialize it to your liking, associating it with your preferred Apple ID. When you log in, run Software Update to get it up to date in its installed version of OS X.

How can i get a macbook pro in the caribbean especially trinidad and tobago

I have been a pc user for years and I am tired of them not living up to standard. I viewed the presentations about macbook pro and I am wondering why I never used it before.
Anyway I am a teacher and loved what I saw the the iwork software was capable of but I have no where of accessing a store to purchase one. Is there any way I could get access to purchasing one?
In Trinidad and Tobago pc's arepopular but I think if teachers got a chance to experience the capabilities of a mac they would switch. Any ideas on how I can get one?

You can look for an actual Apple Authorized Reseller here - http://www.apple.com/lae/buy/
Trinidad & Tobago are listed in the first "find a reseller" list there, so there should be some.
see https://locate.apple.com/tt/en/ - I entered Port of Spain here and it popped up with at least 6 resellers.

How can i reset my macbook pro without the disc?

trying to reset a macbook pro to factory settings without a disc

You can get a set of discs specific to your machine by calling Apple. Cost is about $20, I believe. Be sure and have your serial number handy.
Then take a look at Thomas Reed's How to prepare your Mac for sale - that may not be exactly what you're doing but it will give your machine that factory-fresh feel.
Good luck,
Clinton

How do I backup my MacBook Pro when the disk image is grayed out?

I have a MacBook Pro (15 inc. four years old) running OSX 10.6.8 and last night I got the color pinwheel of death. I could not force quit anything and had to manually power down.
When I powered back up I got the folder with the question mark. I ran Disk Utility and tried to Repair Disk, but I got:
Disk Utility stopped repairing "diskOs2"
...Back up as many of your files as possible
Details: Invalid B-tree node size
The volume could not be verified completely
Volume repair complete
Error: Disk Utility can't repair this disk, Back up... at the disk, and restore your backed-up files
I hooked up an external hard drive and tried to make a copy of the disk image, but it is grayed out. I also tried to partition the main Hitachi drive and make a "New Image" but I got: "Unable to create backup (input/output error)
So I now have a Genius Bar appointment for tomorrow, but I can't even back up my computer before going. I can have them tell me what to do, but then I'll have to go home and do it, and then make a second appointment.
Any suggestions? Oh, and I backed up this computer about six weeks ago on Time Machine, but I'd love to make a copy of all new files I've created since then.
Thanks!

You have two options. Purchase Disk Warrior or erase the drive. The former would require your ability to install a download of DW on a bootable disk so you could repair your hard drive. And, DW costs $99.00. The latter requires a Snow Leopard installer DVD from which you can boot, erase the hard drive, then reinstall Snow Leopard. Then download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1. You can then restore from your Time Machine backup. There is no way now for you to backup files unless you can access the drive. Open Disk Utility, select the entry for your disk volume then click on the Mount icon in the toolbar. If your volume mounts on the Desktop then you may be able to copy files to an external drive or even run a Time Machine backup.

How do i reset a macbook pro to the factory settings

How do I reset a Macbook to the original factory settings?

Restore to original:
Boot from your grey installer DVD disc 1, or SL retail installer disc (hold down the C key on startup or hold down Alt/option on start and choose the installer disc).
OK the language page (if present).
From the installer screen, do not click 'continue' - go to the menu bar and choose Disk Utility; depending on the OS version it may be in the Utilities menu or Tools menu.
In DU, select your internal drive in the sidebar (the top item with the makers name and serial no.).
Run Repair Disk (not permissions). If that comes up as disk OK;
Click the partition tab. Select the partiton from the drop-down above the graphic; 1 partiton is all you need. Go to the options button and ensure that the partition scheme is GUID and the file system to Mac OS Extended (Journalled).
Name the partiton (usually Macintosh HD), click Apply.
When that's finished, select the new volume in the sidebar (indented to the right below the drive) and go to the Erase tab.
Select Security options and select zero data (one pass is more than sufficient). Click erase. That will take quite some time; probably measured in hours and dependant on the size of the drive.
(The purpose of this step is to ensure there is no recoverable data left on the drive).
When that's completed, close DU and continue with the installation.
When installation is complete, after the restart ignore the setup assistant and shut down the Mac (you may have to do this by holding down the power button).
The Mac is now ready for the new owner to personalise it as if new.
Be sure to pass on the original grey discs with the Mac, and the SL retail disc if you loaded SL.

How do I get my MacBook pro to the depot for repair?

MacBook has keyboard problems. How do I send it to the depot for repair? Telephone support gave me an address depot.info.apple.com but that just swing me back to the express lane for advice.
Thanks for your help,
Cx

The way it has worked for me in the past was
1. call Applecare
2. once they decide it needed to be sent in for service, they arrange with their shipper to have a box dropped off (used to be Airborne express, not sure who they use now)
3. shipper drops off box with all packing material (tape, foam, instructions) and a shipping lable.
aside - back up your hard drive!! Apple will not contact you if anything they do involves reinstalling the OS and wiping the drive to do it - it is entirely up to you to safe guard your data BEFORE sending it off to Apple. Also might want to de-authorizse the machine in iTunes incase any hardware repairs change the hardware ID of the machine and you have to use another authorization when you get it back to get iTunes to recognize it.
4. user packs up machine, calls shipper to arrange a pickup
5. shipper picks up box - off to Apple, repaired and returned
These were for in-warranty (or AppleCare extended period) repairs. I think if out of warranty, they require a credit card number to charge the shipping to.

How to update a MacBook Pro to the latest copy of Snow Leapard

I was wondering how do you update a MacBook Pro to the latest Snow Leopard? I have the software version I want and I held down c while I restarted it and got to the installer but it told me I needed a backup to install it. Is this true because I don't have a backup and I'm not sure how to get one with out spending a lot of money to go to apple or get a time machine. Can some one tell me how to update?
Thanks

I think you can probably just bypass that message, but if you don't have a backup, sooner is a better time to make one than later. Get an external hard drive at least as large as your internal drive (a FireWire 800 drive is best, but USB is considerably cheaper), and use SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner to make a bootable clone of your internal drive before you upgrade the OS. Then if things should go haywire during the upgrade, you'll be able to start up from the clone and clone it back onto the internal drive.
Using your computer without a backup of all your data is like driving an uninsured motor vehicle: you should never even think about it.

HT5824 how to save macbook pro calendar to icloud

How do I save the Calendar from my MacBook Pro to the iCloud to link with my iPhone?
Thanks,
Josef

10.6 does not meet the requirements for iCloud. There is a hack which may work for you for calendars, as described here - this is unsupported and there is no guarantee that it will continue to work.
To make full use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mavericks, provided it meets the requirements.
The requirements for Lion are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). Mountain Lion (10.8.x) is also available there at the same price but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Mavericks (10.9.x) - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
The requirements for Mountain Lion and Mavericks are:
OS X v10.6.8 or later
2GB of memory
8GB of available space
and the supported models are:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
