  • HT1296 How can I transfer all my photos from my Ipad Mini to my new MacBook Pro

    How can I transfer all my photos from my Ipad Mini to my new MacBook Pro
    I am facing problem while I connect to my iPad mini with MacBook Pro , it only sync photo from its taken by and from it camera roll only. It doesn't sync all the images... Like my all albums. All photos in library....

    To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.
    You should also be able to copy albums that you've created directly on the iPad via apps such as Simple Transfer (though I haven't tried it)

  • 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. 

  • A mini disc will not work in superdrive.  How would you suggest I retrieve the data from a mini disc to my macbook air?

    Reading the previous comments, I understand the last thing I want to do is stick a mini-disc in my superdrive.  Not too super, but never mind.
    Any suggestions as to how I can read it?  It has the user's manual for my new actioncam.

    buy a tray loading LG DVD drive from best buy or amazon.com
    theyre only $30
    they work perfect on the Air (i know)  and have a MUCH longer cable for ease of use than does the superdrive.

  • How do you plug a VGA monitor to a Mac mini (mid 2011)

    I used my older Mac mini (mid 2007)  with a VGA LCD monitor through an "DVI to VGA" adapter with no problems.
    However, this older adapter does not fit in the "HDMI to DVI Adapter" supplied with my new Mac mini (mid 2011).
    There are no receptacles (holes) in the "HDMI to DVI adapter" for the four pins located around the flat tab on one hand of the older adapter .
    Any suggestion on how to plug a LCD VGA monitor to a mid 2011 Mac mini?
    I know there is a Thunderbolt port and a HDMI port,
    but being able to use an inexpensive VGA monitor for set-up and periodic maintenance,
    without having to fire up a huge plasma screen each time, would be nice.
    There is no displayport on this mid 2011 Mac mini.
    There does not seem to be any HDMI to VGA nor  Thunderbolt to VGA adapters on the market.
    Any suggestions?

    The > Apple - Thunderbolt Port is the same as and doubles as a Mini DisplayPort.
    Look down at the bottom of > Mac mini (Mid 2011) - Technical Specifications in the Accessories / Displays and Graphics section or on page #33 of your User Guide.

  • How do you make a floppy image on a mac mini?

    I tried the following to make a bootable floppy image and it would not even read in a virtual machine.  I have Oracle Virtualbox.  I am using a Mac Mini 2011 with 4GB of RAM.  I have tried making a blank floppy and copying to it by dragging and using the Terminal, but neither works.  Here are the cmds I used:
    dd if=/dev/zero bs=1024 count=1440>floppy.img
    Then I mounted and erased the image file in Disk Utility.
    cp -Rpv /Volumes/Untitled/ /Volumes/UNTITLED\ 1/
    The above command copied all the files from the floppy to the image but the image wouldn't read on the virtual machine.
    Thanks,
    ericgsch

    It's an old thread, but searches still retrieve it. For what it's worth, look at (for example) http://kb.parallels.com/en/4794
    The procedure to make an image of a floppy disk is basically as follows:
    Put your disk in your floppy drive. Open Disk Utility. In Disk Utility, select your floppy drive, select New Image, select "read/write" and no encryption, then Save (wherever you want the image to be). Then (in Finder) you might want to change the filename extension from .dmg to something else, like .flp or .fdd, depending on what you want the image for. For VirtualBox, you might want .img.

  • How do you change the font size on a Mac mini so you can read stuff on a 55 inch tv

    I have my Mac mini hooked up to my 55 inch vizio but when I'm sitting on my bed it's hard to read the tool bar in safari

    Hello, I think you're out of luck with the toolbar, but not on 10.9 to check right now, you can change the minimum font size used in Safari Prefereces for web pages.
    Perhaps Zoom will work for you...

  • How do you transfer video from a miniDV camcorder to the 2011 model of MacBook Pro

    I recently found an old miniDV camcorder that was stored in my house from several years ago.  There is video on the camcorder that I would like to import into my MacBook.  However, the miniDV has a firewire connector and my MacBook does not.  Is there a simple way to import the data to my MacBook?

    If your MacBook has Thunderbolt, you can get a Thunderbolt to Firewire adapter which should give you the connectibity you need.

  • How can I share my iTune library on both Mac/Windows on my new MacBook Pro?

    I just ordered a new MBP. I have 15GB iTune library on my old Mac.
    I'm planning to install Windows Vista and using BootCamp or fusion to use both Mac and Windows on MBP. I will use only Windows during work hours and will use Mac when I get back home.
    Is it possible to have just an one iTune library to share for both environment? I'd like to update the library from both Mac or Windows of my choice.
    I also posted on Windows section.
    Thank you for your help!

  • How do I install OSX Lion that shipped with my 2011 Mac Mini onto my 2011 Macbook Pro

    Reading the documentation for OSX Lion suggests that it is a multi-device lisence OS and that it should appear in my App Store as purchased Apps, but I don't see it.

    If you purchased Lion through the App Store it should appear there and be downloadable / installable on all of your compatible Macs, this is the only way to install it on all of your Macs as far as I am aware.  It is just £25 so not a big deal to purchase, but I would wait for Mountain Lion now.  I don't think the pre-installed Mac OS appears as a purchase in the App Store, though it would be nice if it did as technically you purchased the licence for it when you purchased your Mac (though perhaps a slightly different licence?)

    DVD movies/shows that you purchase are encrypted to stop you from doing this.

  • How do you open the DVD tray on a K430 without using Windows Explorer?

    How do you open the DVD tray on a K430 without using Windows Explorer? I can't find a button on or below the door.  Am I missing something?  Additionally, will the K430 boot from a DVD/CD if it finds one in the DVD tray instead of the hard disk?  Please help. Thanks. 
    Solved!

    hi penguin247,
    Regarding your questions:
    1. Can you try to press the eject symbol on the DVD bay and observe if the DVD tray comes out.
    Link to picture
    2. By default, the HDD is set as the first boot device and the ODD second on the K430. You will need to change the boot order or continuously tap F12 during POST to boot from the ODD (assuming you have a bootable media inserted).
