How many displays can i drive with macbook pro

?

Most MacBook Pro models have built-in Hardware to drive one external display at reasonable resolution and speed. You can install USB devices that will provide additional screens, but the lag is really noticeable.
The default for Mac OS X external screens is "Extended Desktop", which adds the external screen to one edge of the built-in screen to produce a larger Extended desktop that operates as one single device.
Mirroring is also an option, but if the external screen is too different from the Internal screen, you may have to make some serious compromises to get a picture.

  • How many speakers can you drive with Airtunes?

    I know apples knowledge base doc ( http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=108038 ) says that you can have a maximum of 3 to 6 sets of speakers maximum. However, in practice what have people managed to achieve?
    I managed to get 2 speakers going but had problems with 3 with the airport expresses as clients. Moving to WDS and the AX's as remotes now means I can get music to stream to 3 speakers. See this post http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1399864&tstart=0 for more info.

    Unless you have DRM still haunting your tunes ... Then you can only use those songs on 5 devices. Otherwise, connect as many as you like (as stated above).
    No, you can sync your DRM tracks to an unlimited number of iPods (but only authorized to play on 5 different computers/user accounts)

    So I can sync two iPods to my iTunes account and sync the same digital copy movies that come with some o' my DVDs to both ipods? Do movies make a difference really, DRM-Wise? Thanks in advance.

    how many computers can i use with creative cloud?

    Two.
    From the Creative Cloud FAQ here http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html under the section Purchasing and getting started:
    On how many computers can I install the software I download from Creative Cloud?
    You can install the desktop applications available in Creative Cloud on your primary computer and one backup computer, as long as they are not running at the same time. You will have access to both the Mac OS and Windows versions, so if you have a Mac at home and a PC at work, for instance, you can install your applications on both. See the product license agreements page for more information.

  • How many computers can I autorize with a single Adobe account?

    As a librarian, I work in many schools. We slowly start to buy eBook for students with difficulties in learning. Often, books are protected by DRM: we have to use the same account to open the books that the one we use to buy it.
    For now, only one person will be allowed to buy eBooks (me), so we will only have one account... but each student have his own computer, so I will have to autorize each computer with the same account.
    1. Can I do that?
    2. If yes, how many computers can I autorize with a single Adobe account?
    3. If no, what else can I do?
    Thank you very much,

    (1)You can do that with (2) up to six devices total including your computer.
    (3) The only other thing is to try to contact Adobe to see what arrangements they can make.
    Alternatively, contact Overdrive, who are the service most libraries use for lending ADE DRM books,
    which is effecitvely what you want to do.
    I am afraid I can't give any idea of the best contact points for those oarganizations.
    Maybe some other public librarian will be able to point you in the right direction.

  • How many device can one sync with iPhone? I own a Mac Pro and an iMac desktop. Can I sync with both machines?

    How Many devices can I sync with my iPhone?  I own a Mac PRO and an iMAC.  Depends on where I am, I will plug my iPhone to either of the machines. I haven't sync with either machine yet.

    Please explain how one would accomplish that feat.
    There's not much to explain. When a device is connected, you see the row of different categories across the top: Summary, Info, Apps, Tones, Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, Books, and Photos. For example, it is perfectly safe to sync one iOS device to the Music category on Computer A and no other computer, and the same device to Photos on Computer B and no other computer.
    You might be confusing what I'm saying with one iOS device enabling sync to the Music library on multiple computers. That is a huge no-no and will result in the disaster being suggested. But I am not talking about that, I'm talking about the opposite arrangement. What I am describing preserves category exclusivity. It turns out that exclusivity at the category level, not the computer level, is what really matters.
    As long as a device is synced to a given category on only one computer, it doesn't matter which computer it is or whether that computer is different than the ones synced to on other categories. The instant a given category is enabled for syncing on more than on computer, that is where the trouble starts.

    Trying to do so is asking for trouble. Don't do it. Move the content you need to one machine and sync only with that machine. If you don't, you'll be back here asking how to fix the mess and recover all the stuff you lost...
    I will agree that it is something you should only do mindfully. But if you do make sure each category is syncing to only one device, there will be no data loss and no mess.
