How do I install base system on external drive to boot MacBook Pro?

I have a MacBook Pro 2.2 core 2 duo. I use an external HD for storage. Want to make external drive bootable (i.e. to run apps like DiskWarrior on MacBookPro).
How do I install the base system?
Thank you.

First, be sure the external drive is partitioned using the GUID partition scheme. If it isn't then you will have to re-partition the drive which will erase anything you have on the drive.
Second, the external drive must be formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled.)
Last, boot from the OS X Installer Disc One that came with the computer and install OS X onto the external drive. Do not do an Erase and Install if you don't want to erase the external drive. You can customize the installation to omit any additional components you don't need such as language localizations, Asian Fonts, unneeded printer drivers, etc.

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

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.

How do I install dell v305 print drivers on my new macbook pro?

how do I install dell v305 print drivers on my new macbook pro?

Dell's drivers are only for Windows. If you can find out who makes the printer and what model it is, then you may be able to find OS X drivers for it. Or you can see how well it works using the Generic driver.

How do I a setup an external hard drive on my Macbook Pro?

How do I a setup an external hard drive on my Macbook Pro to my primary hard drive for my iTunes library?
I ask this because every time I try to do this it my Mac book pro always wants to use the external hard drive I plug in as a time machine back up rather than my primary hard drive. I figured it would be cheaper and more efficient to use an external hard drive rather than have apple charge me an arm and a leg to replace and upgrade my current hard drive in my Mac book pro.

I responded to this in your duplicate posting at: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2690347
I recommend giving a first post a chance before posting a second time, especially since it may result in a lot of duplication in effort from the people volunteering their time here.

How can i install mac os x snow leopard on a macbook pro new hard drive

I replaced the hard drive on my macbook pro and I'm having difficulty installing Mac Snow leopard on the new hard drive. I press "C" when rebooting with the disk inside and all I get is "you need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button until it turns off, then press the Power button again" any suggestion?

Booting From An OS X Installer Disc
1. Insert OS X Installer Disc into the optical drive.
2. Restart the computer.
3. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the "C" key.
4. Release the key when the spinning gear below the dark gray Apple
      logo appears.
5. Wait for installer to finish loading.
Clean Install of Snow Leopard
     1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc. Insert the disc into the
         optical drive and restart the computer. After the chime press and hold down the
         "C" key. Release the key when you see a small spinning gear appear below the
         dark gray Apple logo.
     2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
         button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
         After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
         size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
         partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, set the format type to Mac
         OS Extended (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Partition button.
     3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
         with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
     4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
         Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
         username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
         Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
         install of OS X. You can now begin the update process by opening Software
         Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.

How can I install Final Cut Studio 2 on my new MacBook Pro with Lion?

I just purchased and received a new 15" MacBook Pro (non-retina) last week. I need to install Final Cut Studio 2 on this computer. I have researched this and found that I need to install Rosetta from the Snow Leopard DVD in order to do this. This is the first Mac I've bought ( although I've been working with them for years), so I don't have a Snow Leopard DVD. I am a high school teacher and we use FCS 2 for my classes so buying FCP X is not a viable option for me since I teach FCP 6. The iMacs we use in school run Leopard and were never upgraded to Snow Leopard (budget cuts and all), so I can't even borrow one from my district.
Does anyone know how I can obtain Rosetta? Or another way to install this without it?
Thank you ! :)

There is no way to add Rosetta support because it is not supported by OS X Lion at system level. This has been documented before the release of OS X Lion by itself.
If you really need Final Cut Studio 2, I would return your computer if possible, and purchase a Mac that is capable of running Snow Leopard (all 2010 models, early 2011 MBP and some other 2011 models)

How do you install Lightroom on a NAS drive?

I want to install Lightroom and all data on my NAS drive. (as my main drive contains no data on it what so ever).
I also do not have a 'Pictures', 'Videos', or 'Music' folder on this drive either.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Keith

Keith first I would recommend installing applications on the same drive/partition which contains your operating system. If you are utilizing a SSD for your operating system then much of the benefits of the SSD are lost when running applications from a traditional hard drive.
What version of Photoshop Lightroom are you wanting to install on this drive? Is Lightroom included as part of a membership or do you own a license?

How do I install Lion on a partition on a 2012 Macbook pro running Mavericks?

I need to run software for which the latest OS that it is compatible with is OSX 10.7. How can I install 10.7 on a partition in my Mavericks Macbook pro?

Another way to find out is to call Apple (or stop at the nearest Genius Bar) and give them your serial number - they will be able to tell you with that.
FWIW, if you bought it used and it had Mavericks on it but the original OS was anything earlier than that, the seller didn't do you any favors as any OS (or app) purchased/downloaded from the app store is tied to the Apple ID used to obtain it forever - and it is not transferable. What that means is that unless he did a complete erase and reinstall the original OS (as required by the licensing agreement), you won't be able to update any apps and/or won't be able to reinstall as you'll be prompted for the seller's Apple ID/password.
So, let's figure out what it came with first; then you can try internet recovery (press Command + Option + R keys during boot up until you see it is connected to Apple's servers); in the Utilities screen, choose Disk Utility and erase your drive. When finished, back to the Utilities screen, choose reinstall OS X. While in Disk Utility, you should be able to re-partition - although I can't guarantee that'll work at that point because I've never tried it, but I don't see why it shouldn't. After you have it installed on one partition, install it again on the other partition. Once that's done, you can download/install Yosemite (or whatever) on one of the partitions using your own Apple ID.
Note: you must erase your entire drive in order to do any of the above.

How do i install OS X 10.5.4 on my macbook pro?

I cant get OS X 10.5.4 to install on my macbook pro anone know what I can do?

Well if your going to bother to install OS X, 10.6 is much better than 10.5 on Intel Mac's.
You get a stripped down OS without the legacy PPC code Apple doesn't want to support any longer and you get updated video drivers so your Mac performs faster.
Apple has abandoned all hope for 10.5 users, it's really a shame, but I guess it didn't make much buisness sense to keep employee's around for a processor that had no future.
So pop in a 10.6 disk and install that, Snow Leopard is the greatest OS Apple ever made, Lion is a complete and utter train wreck, but hopefully a year from now it will be somewhat usable.
Unfortunatly you will have to buy iLife, unless you can extract the programs from the 10.5 grey disks using Pacifist.

Problem with upgrading hard drive in 2009 Macbook Pro with Snow Leopard

Current drive is 320gb with fresh install of OS SL updated with some other programs installed. New drive is Seagate Momentus 750, same brand and model as the old, just bigger.
I install the new drive, boot off the OS SL CD and go into disk utility. Partition and format with GUID and Journaled. Install starts and ultimately fails every time.
Tried to clone the 320 by putting it in the macbook, use the 750 via usb/sata. Drive restores, but it is unreliable in loading and stability. When it gets to the grey screen, it alternately flickers the Apple, Folder and NO sign. Sometimes it loads, sometimes it just keeps spinning. When it does load, it's slow and programs that take more power crash.
Brought it to Apple. They said it was a problem in the SMART section, so I got a new drive under warranty. This is the THIRD drive i've gotten from Seagate. Still doesn't work.
I've countlessly repaired and verified the drive. Helps to load sometimes, but not all the time.
If I put the 320 back in, everything works great.
Thanks.

Is there a quality external enclosure to put the large drive in, one that has its own power supply and not rely on the port power in the MacBook/Pro? If it is a viable drive and can actually run a bootable OS X version, I'd begin to wonder after all that.
{I'd also looked up your computer in MacTracker to see what if any limits on hardware upgrade may exist. Nothing said of direct interest to the HDD. Also in everymac.com, so there should be no surprises. Yet to have those problems is troublesome and a surprise. New drives can fail. Maybe in batches?}
And a clone of a working system for backup could be made with a utility such as CarbonCopy cloner or superduper, etc then tested as a bootable clone, with the hard disk drive tested thoroughly before use. It also is odd that a drive of that size would act up, I see drives of even larger size offered online by reputible resellers and Mac specialist companies who have been around awhile, such as OWC. I just looked to see if there was a ceiling on support of larger size HDD capacities, and 750GB is not the largest. Maybe the series you chose could be among a troublesome batch or brand.
http://eshop.macsales.com/MyOWC/Upgrades.cfm?model=302 has a variety of stuff, including RAM, HDD, SSD, etc. And their staff has people who know what they sell. Well, some of them do. I had called them on a topic several years ago and they didn't really have an answer (I was given an OWC dual HDD external drive & it had issues, but had never been used. It still is sitting as-new, w/o support; now obsolete.)
I'd try a different brand and put it into an enclosure that has its own power supply, ports for USB2.0/3.0 and FW400/800, and so on. Perhaps even an OWC line item, not that I've had any valid experience with them here in AK. And ask their people about their products, get names, finger prints, mug shots...! LOL
Good luck & happy computing!

How do I boot from an external hard drive if my MacBook Pro only recognizes the internal drive?

Hi there, I recently got the white screen of death (w/ circle slash) on my 13" 2009 MacBook Pro. Most people are saying that it is hard drive failure, so I am trying to boot it from an external hard drive to save some of my data before having it repaired. Unfortunately, every time I press "option" while it boots, it only shows the internal drive on the grey screen. I have my external drive connected, but it won't recognize it. What should I do?
Thanks!

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You can only start from an external drive if OS X is installed there. If not, it won't appear as a bootable volume because there isn't any operating system inside it.
As you have a Mid 2009 MacBook Pro, it's better to start from the Mac OS X disc that came with your Mac. Insert it and hold the C key while your Mac is starting. After starting, go to Utilities menu > Disk Utility, select "Macintosh HD" in the sidebar and repair it. If you can't get it repaired, take the computer to an Apple Store.
If the hard drive can't be repaired, the only option to recover your files is to use an application as DiskWarrior, but it's expensive and it's not sure that it will work, because it may fail

HT1338 How do I install a hp Laserjet P1102w printer to a Macbook Pro with WiFi

The hp Laserjet printer is plugged into the usb port of an IBM PC running Windows XP. I would like to leave it thus connected.

From your post I cannot tell if you know the procedure to add a Windows shared printer to the Mac but are having trouble after doing so, or if you don't know the procedure. So I will reply on the premise that you don't know how to add the shared Windows printer.
So for starters, the HP would have to be shared on Windows. This will let the Mac see the shared resource on the local network. You also mention WiFi. So this would require the PC and the Mac to be connected to the same WiFi router.
With the sharing enabled on Windows, on the Mac you open System Preferences > Print & Scan and click the plus button to add. You then select the Windows tab in the Add printer sheet. This presents you with a window that has three columns. The first is the Workgroup, followed by the Computer then the shared printer name. Typically Windows will use Workgroup for the workgroup name. So you should see Workgroup in this first column. When selected, the second column should show the name of your Win XP computer. If you select this computer name, you will then be prompted to authenticate to Windows to continue. At this point, enter your Windows user name and password. With this information correctly entered, the third column will show the shared printer. Select this and then select the supporting driver for this printer in the Use menu. Click Add to complete the queue creation.
Now with regards to the supporting driver, there are many printer drivers for OS X that cannot be used when a printer is shared by Windows. So if the driver you select on the Mac fails to print then you may have to look at alternative drivers, such as Gutenprint, PrintFab or HPIJS in the case of HP printers. But if this particular HP LaserJet supports the PCL or Postscript printer language, then you can select the Generic PCL or Generic PS that is included with OS X. While these driver do not give you any features for printer, they do at least let you print.
One last point. After adding the printer, the first time you try to print from the Mac via the Windows shared printer, you will be prompted to authenticate again. So enter the Windows user name and password again, and save this to the Mac Keychain so that you don't have to worry about authenticating the next time you print.

How do you Install programs to one user account on a macbook pro?

I want to download programs to my user account on my laptop without the other peoples accounts having access to it. How do you specify only to download to this account, or change the settings of past installed programs to only be accessible to my account and not the others

As Csound1 has already pointed out create a folder in your Home folder for only those applications that you want exclusive access to like this one in my Home folder:
For those application that have an installer, you'll need to install and then move the app from the Applications folder to your own app folder.
