How do i use my macbook pro as a fax

how do i use my macbook pro as a fax

I bought a US Robotics USB modem that has a phone jack. I then went into Settings, and set it up as a fax. I can RECEIVE, but haven't really tried to send, although I do have access to a scanner. I do have to physically jack into the wall to receive. I do not know if I (or anyone else) can do this wirelessly.
The modem is 56K, and relatively cheap...I think I paid $25 or less for it.

How do I use my macbook pro lid closed

How do I use my macbook pro lid closed?

Well what i'm trying to do is keep file sharing on while macBook is closed so i can access files through "newtwok" (Back to my mac) with my imac...
Ideally i would then control my macBook with screen sharing on my imac while the MacBook is stored behind my iMac...
Somehow it worked before but now it stopped...and everytime i close the lid ..mac book pro goes black screen and completly disconnects from the newtwork...
Everything works fine with lid open..
I am trying to do this because i have a new imac with thunderbold and an older macbook pro with mini display port..and as you might already know...you canot connect these thow devices using thunderbolt cable...which really *****....there is also no adaport enabling this...and i really dont need to buy another mac book that just has one more hole in it >.<
Anyway..hope there is a solution somewhere to keep file sharing going while lid down..
regards remo

How do I use my MacBook Pro to watch exactly what my digital cable box would send to my TV?

You could use Elgato Systems' EyeTV product to view external video sources on your MBP.
There is additional cost involved, but it would achive what you want. You can buy the Hybrid product, and connect your external DVD player via Composite (red, white and yellow connectors) to your MBP via the EyeTV.

Unfortunately, that is not possible. The computer only can "output" your display image, it cannot "input" an image from an external computer and display it on your MacBook's retina display.

How Do I Use my MacBook Pro to Watch a DVD From External DVD Player

Hello Everyone!
While waiting for Apple TV to become available in my place of work, I want to use my MacBook Pro monitor for watching a DVD movie played on an external DVD player. The DVD player I have is an LPC-D1000, which is a new model. While Mac has its own DVD player, I'm trying to make use of my LG DVD player. If that's possible, please guide me on how to do it.
Thank you.

How do I use the MacBook Pro's audio line in?

Hi,
I've been trying to connect my Playstation 3's analog audio output to my MacBook Pro but it doesn't seem to work. Everytime after I connect it, there still won't be any sound coming out of the speakers.
How is the analog line in supposed to work?
Thanks!

Hi Ymer,
Have you selected "audio line in" as your sound source in System preferences / Sound?
The other thing you will need to do is get hold of a copy of an excellent little utility produced by the people who make "Audio Hijack", called "Line-In" - available from http://mac.softpedia.com/get/Audio/LineIn.shtml or direct from the maker at http://www.rogueamoeba.com/freebies/
There is no need to use a sound recording app, if you use "Line In", though that is another option.
Cheers
Rod

How do I use my MacBook Pro on my HDTV?

I have a MacBook Pro and all of the necessary cables in order to display my computer on my tv screen. I have my tv to the right setting and connected to my computer to the DVI port. I have a LG HDTV when I plug my cords in my computer screen turns blue like it recognizes that it is connected to the TV but nothing happens on my TV and it still says that there is no signal. It has to be some sort of setting on my TV. Any help is greatly appreciated thanks. Also I was wondering if there is a way to run the sound through the TV using the cords I have. Thanks

I agree with what you are saying, that his MBP doesnt have a thunderbolt port, and shouldnt work, but it will do so. It is the same port in essence being the same shape. It acts in exactly the same way as a DVI, if you want sound and picture, simply get the cord that i have recommended. My personal MPB also has a DVI port, and not a thunderbolt port, as i dont have the new version. But for some reason it seems to double up as the same port, even though at first glance it seems to be a completely different port.
A member of my family bought a brand new MBP only a few weeks ago, and decided to get a thunderbolt to HDMI lead, no adaptors needed, and this gives both sound and picture not only to the late 2011 version, but to older versions also.
Note that i have an old version MBP, WITH DVI, and a thunderbolt cable gives me picture AND sound.

How can I use the MacBook Pro webcam with Windows XP apps under Parallel?

Thank you in advance for your help with this matter.
I have a MacBook Pro and I have just installed Parallel with Windows XP. I would like to use the webcam that comes with the laptop for applications that run under Windows XP (ex.: PalTalk).
The application doesn't seen to recognize the camera. Do I have to load the drivers for this camera in XP? If so where can I find them and what is the process?
Thank you again,
Enrico

You probably need to load the Boot Camp drivers that are on the Leopard DVD. Whether it works or not I can't say, but you may want to post your question on the Parallels forums, since it's not an Apple product, and if anyone has gotten it to work you'll find them over there.

Am I able to use my MacBook Pro as a fax

Is there an app in my OS that allowes me to send fax'es?

Hi Paul,
In the Finder, from the Menu Bar, select Help. In the search field type in: sending a fax
A list of topics will be available for help.
Here are the basics from the Home Index.
To send a fax:
Choose File > Print, and then choose Fax PDF from the PDF pop-up menu.
Type the fax number in the To field, or click the Address Book button to the right of the To field to select a number.
If you want to paste a number into the To field and the Edit > Paste command isn’t available, hold down the Control key as you click the To field and choose Paste from the menu that appears.
If your phone system requires you to dial a prefix for an outside line, type it in the Dialing Prefix field.
If you want to include a cover page, select “Use Cover page” and enter a subject and message.
Make sure the correct fax device is selected from the Printer pop-up menu.
To change your options, choose the option category from the print options pop-up menu.
For example, to choose your modem’s behavior when faxing, choose Fax Modem. You can choose whether to dial with touch tones or pulse tones, whether to listen to the modem as it dials, and whether to wait for a steady dial tone before dialing.
Click Fax.

I'm using a macbook pro, running snow leopard. Yesterday I got around to emptying my trash for the first time in quite awhile and was surprised by how much there seemed to be in there. Immediately after a question mark symbol appeared on all my hard disk folders. If I click on these question marks I get a message saying ' the item can't be found'.

Not sure where these hard disk folders are located that you are referring to? Finder, Finder tool bar, Finder side bar, Desktop, Dock?
More then likely they are an alias that not longer point to the orginals, thus the question mark.
I would reboot. Delete icons if an alias and just recreate by dragging from the source. Try right click (control) click to remove.

I have just acquired an iMac desktop. I want to sign on to my airport wireless network, but cannot remember the password. How can I access the password or reset it. I already use a MacBook Pro and an iPad on the network.

I have just acquired an iMac desktop (about 4 years old). I want to connect to my Apple airport wireless network, but cannot remember the password. How can I access the password or, if necessary, reset it. I already use a MacBook Pro and an iPad on the network and don't want to jeopardize what already works well. I am not all that computer literate.

How can I access the password or, if necessary, reset it.
Read the user manual that came w/your Airport router or you can cross-post in one of the AirPort Forums for instructions.

Go to the site and look for an unsubscribe link. Or, contact the site and ask them to stop.
