How do I know if i I have a superdrive on my MACBOOK pro?

Silly question I know, but Im just wondering how can i tell if i have a superdrive? It's a MacBook pro 2.16ghz intel duo 2 core...
-Joey

"Superdrive" is a bit of a misnomer -- really all it means these days is "CD/DVD recorder that's in a Mac", and are produced by a variety of manufacturers and include a wide range of models. To find out the specific capabilities of the drive in your machine, go to the System menu (the Apple logo on the menu bar), click About This Mac, click the More Info... button in the About This Mac window to open System Profiler, then click on ATA in the Hardware section. Make a note of the drive it reports, and Google to see what it actually is.

  • How do i know if my samsung tv is compatible with my macbook pro?

    I have an LCD samsung TV, the model is LE40R86BDX
    when i connect my macbook pro by mini displayport HDMI adapter on my samsung tv i can't see the monitor of my macbook pro, and tell me : no signal!
    help me!!!!

    I had a *nightmare* with this! Buying cheap USB adapters to use my phone as a satnav.
    I'd highly recormend this product that I picked up from my local Apple store:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/H0695ZM/A?fnode=MTY1NDA0Mw
    Great stretch, reaches all over my windscreen, actually charges the phone PLUS a nice surprice was that it's stackable. You can plug this in and the top clips open and you can put the cigrette lighter in to it to keep things super tidy.

    Go to https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do and enter your serial number.
    To find your serial number go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up your serial number is under Hardware Overview.

  • How do i know if any spying software been installed on my macbook pro ?

    I SUSPECT SOMEONE HAS USED MY APPLE ID AND PASSWORD AND THE ONLY WAY TO KNOW MY INFORMATION IS TO HAVE INSTALLED SOME TYPE OF SPYWARE OR SOFTWARE THAT REGISTERS MY ACTIVITY.
    PLEASE HELP. THANK YOU

    I know this one sounds obvious but the final  (perhaps the most effective way) solution is to erase your hard drive and reinstall the OS X. I had adwares/ malwares installed after a program forced me to install MacKeeper (one of the obnoxious Mac malwares). Although I removed all suspicious files on Keycahin and Activity Monitor, nothing completely got solved. After reformatting my hard drive, I was able to get my computer back to normal. If you already backed up your computer, try this solution. However, I highly recommend you to go to the nearest Apple store since the Genius Bar can provide better help.

    Photos and videos in the camera roll are included in your iCloud backup.  Restoring the backup to your new phone will recover them.

  • How do I know what OS I have on mu iMac? I've used it as a PC for years and need to switch over but I may be out of date with current software.  I think I read Lion somewehere....?

    How do I know what OS I have on my iMac? I've used it as a PC for years and need to switch over but I may be out of date with current software.  I think I read Lion somewehere....?  OS 10.5.8

    Click on the Apple icon at the top left of your menu bar, then About this Mac.
    OS 10.5.8 is Leopard. Lion is 10.7
    As for upgrading:
    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    Check via Software Update whether further updates are required.
    You should now see the App Store icon, and you now need to set up your account:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
    You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (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:

    To transfer your current hard drive I like the free application SuperDuper. It makes a bootable copy of everything on your hard drive http://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper/SuperDuperDescription.html  You'll need a cheap SATA external hard drive case. Put the new drive in the case then format and partition the new drive and clone your old drive to the new one. Check that it's set up right by booting up from the external drive. Then replace your old hard drive with the new one and put your old one in the external case.

  • I have a late 2011 model MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion.  I love the AirPlay mirroring feature with Apple TV...BUT, how do I mirror with TVs that don't have Apple TV?  I used to run a cable from my mini display port to the HDMI input of a TV.

    I have a late 2011 model MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion.  I love the AirPlay mirroring feature with Apple TV...BUT, how do I mirror with TVs that don't have Apple TV?  I used to run a cable from my mini display port to the HDMI input of a TV.  This feature seems to be lost in the Mountain Lion upgrade.  Did Apple feel that once Mountain Lion came out that EVERYONE would have Apple TV?  There are no settings in System Preferences/Display like there used to be...only for AirPlay Mirroring.

    Running a cable to the HDMI port is still supported. (and still works on mine).
    If the Arrangement tab in System Preferences > Displays isn't present then it doesn't recognize the physical connection.  Double check all cables.  If that doesn't work try a PRAM reset:

    I have Microsoft Word for my MacBook Pro.  How do I add a pdf to a word document, I have Microsoft Word for my MacBook Pro.  How do I add a pdf to a word document

    What do you want to do specifically.  They are two different document formats - one is PDF, the other DOC or DOCX.  In what way do you wish to "add" ad PDF to a word document. You can embed a mini version within a document (copy it and paste it from within the x.doc) but that's a pretty hokey looking solution.
    Oh, its mostly irrelevant if its office 2004,8 or 11 - they all do this more or less the same way.
