How do i watch a dvd on my macbook pro with retina display

I dont understand why there is no disk drive in my mac book pro with retina display for the money I payed for it. I was wondering if there was anything such as an attachment or something that I could buy to use. Thanks

You may look at this as an option:

Or you may look at players from other manufacturers.

    how do i clean spots on monitor of macbook pro with retina display?

    Light alcohol cleaners, like what you use for camers lenses, works.  Just do not have the soft cloth cleaning pad dripping wet ... dripping wet will allow fluid to get onto internal components.

  • How to play a dvd on a macbook pro with retina display

    I recently bought a Macbook pro with retina display and was suprised to see that there is no slot to put a dvd or cd into. For the amount paid i feel this is ridiculous. However wish to seek a solution, does anyone know of how to solve this problem? Thankyou

    Purchase an external DVD drive and attach it to your rMBP.  Or you can purchase the Apple model specifically made for it:

    Also search this forum for instructions.
    Also run Boot Camp Assistant and follow the instructions.
    You will need to invest in an external dvd drive if you have Windows on a dvd. A usb stick can be used if you are downloading Windows. You will also need to save the Windows Support software to the usb stick. Read the help files.

    It's not a matter of failure, it's the idea of training people to associate the Trash with unmounting a volume. The Trash is a mechanism for the permanent deletion of your data, and designed to appear as such. Apple haters used to laugh at this..."Eject by dragging to the Trash? And you say the Mac is intuitive? Ha ha ha..." And they were right. It's better to teach ways that actually make more sense.
    The great thing about all the newer ways is that they are easily discoverable, you don't have to remember or figure out that you have to virtually trash your disk. A new user would naturally expect to find an Eject command or button, and there they are in plain sight.

    I always find a ton of mounted installers left behind by users who install stuff on their systems.  I don't understand why Apple cannot make an automated process to unmount the installer once it's done.  Just seems stupid to me I guess.  I've seen that mounted installer confuse people into clicking on it each and every time they want to start the app because they don't understand that once it's installed, that installer should be ejected because they're done with it.
    I agree about the installer volume behavior...and Apple made it worse in Mountain Lion by putting the volumes on the bottom of the Finder sidebar, which is often out of view. Incidentally, drag-to-trash does not seem to work with volumes in the sidebar, but the other Eject methods do.
    The "installer problem" is another reason I love the other methods much more than dragging to the trash. To eject multiple volumes by selecting them and pressing Command-E is much faster than the time taken to gather them up with the mouse and drag all of them to a specific spatial target.

  • How do I connect an external microphone to a Macbook Pro with Retina display ?

    How do I connect an external microphone to a Macbook Pro with Retina display ?
    Alternatively how do I connect an audio input at a level that would normally have gone into a 'line input' socket ?

    Plug it into the linein/headphone jack if there's just one.  It'll switch between the two modes automatically depending on what you plug into it.

  • How can i copy files from one external hard disk to another using macbook pro with retina display

    How can i copy files from one external hard drive to another using macbook pro with retina display?

    That's odd - if you open Disk Utility (Applications->Utilities) and select the disk(s), how are they formatted? If you're only going to be used with your Mac, they should be formatted as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)".

  • How to Install Windows 8.1 on MacBook Pro with Retina Display Using Boot Camp?

    Hello,
    I own a MacBook Pro with Retina Display and was wondering how do I install Windows 8.1 without an optical disc drive? I have bought the full version of Windows 8.1 and would like to partition it on my MacBook Pro. Could someone please help me out by posting step-by-step procedure or a video on how to do it? It is my first time partitioning the Windows operating system and would like to clarify with the community on this before I install it.
    Thanks in advance for those who have helped!

    Windows 8.1 is not yet supported by Boot Camp. The best way currently to install Windows 8.1 is to use a virtual machine like Parallels, Fusion, or VirtualBox. Installation instructions are on the Parallels, Fusion, and VirtualBox site.

  • How to install Windows 8 on Macbook pro with retina display ?

    Hi - How to install Windows 8 on Macbook pro with retina display ?
    I am pretty new to the apple world. Tried doing it through bootcamp but did not success.
    I am not interested to install it through Parallels or Fusion. Plz guide.
    Thanks !

    OK, use Windows 8 in Bootcamp. Be aware that there are no Bootcamp drivers for Windows 8 yet. So you may experiance not only delays but display problems, freezing, crashes and other problems.
    Here is the Bootcamp forum. Make sure you read all the posts from people experiencing Windows 8 problems with Bootcamp. https://discussions.apple.com/community/windows_software/boot_camp

  • How to completely remove mac os and install windows 7 on macbook pro with retina display 15 inch

    how to completely remove mac os and install windows 7 on macbook pro with retina display 15 inch

    There's not much sense in purchasing a Mac to run only Windows on it.  Keep in mind that drivers for Windows are a secondary concern for Apple.  While Windows will typicall run fine, things like power managment are not optimized under Windows (you'll get less time on battery while running Windows).  You will also not be able to install firmware updates.  Firmware updates might be necessary whether you run Windows or OS X as they are updates to the code in your hardware and are not OS-specific.  You must be running OS X in order to install a firmware update.  You can do this even if you boot off of an external drive with OS X installed on it.  At the very least, you should keep just a small partition for OS X on your internal drive.

  • How do I install iWork disk on MacBook Pro with Retina Display?

    I have recently purchased a MacBook Pro with Retina Display and would like to install iWork on it. I do not have the device needed to use disks on this laptop as it doesn't have an optical drive. Is there any way I could download some sort of software and use a key to identify my disk? Or something along those lines because I'm sure apple would have thought that this problem would occur.
    Thanks

    That's why Apple no longer sells disks. All its software is now available on the App Store. So you can either purchase/download the iWork components from there, or, if you have access to another Mac with an optical drive, share the DVD from that across the network (System Preferences - Sharing - turn CD/DVD sharing on) and install that way.

    If you haven't found an answer yet. I know for a fact that this can be ordered directly from Apple at no extra cost
    You can either ask for this when buying a new MBP at a "physical" Apple store, or as in my case in the UK the online Apple store allows such keyboard configuration in addition to 3 other languages like Spanish, German and French

  • 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.
