    Is there a way to open desktop icons on macbook pro osx 10.8 with one click?

    You might look for third-party software for that, but there is no such option in OS X itself unless you drag the icon into the Dock.

  • How do we make the apple icon on Macbook pro?

    Hi, I wonder how I can make the apple icon on Macbook pro and how i make a heart ( not like this - <3) Someone knos what I have to do?

    Option-shft-K will get you the Apple logo in many, but not all, fonts.
    To find a font with a heart glyph use Character Viewer.
    Topher Kessler provides a how-to in this CNET article. He even uses "heart" in his search example.

  • How to change a faulty hard drive on MacBook Pro

    The hard drive on my laptop is failing: overall performance has greatly diminished, the computer has slowed down, sometimes even crashing;  looking at /var/ log messages, plenty of I/O error messages are building up.
    Added to this, the System Information (system report) says that the Hitachi (750 Gb, 7200 rpm, model HTS727575A9E362) SATA drive is failing (S.M.A.R.T. status)
    I have a 15" MacBook Pro (Late 2011).
    So, my question: what's the best way to change it for a new hard disk drive, and be sure it's compatible?
    The computer's warranty has already expired, and have no extended coverage....I've been looking around the www for laptop hard drives in Apple retail stores, and can't find any. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    apple doesnt sell hard drives.  Look on newegg.com or macsales.com.  Any 2.5" that is 9.5 mm or less in height will fit.  Here are installation instructions: http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/MacBook+Pro+15-Inch+Unibody+Late+2011+Hard+Drive+Rep lacement/7513

  • How to move photos from iPad 2 to macbook pro

    I have taken pictures with my Cannon 6D and loaded them onto my IPAD 2 using the SD card adapter for that purpose. I can not find a way to move them to my MacBook Pro. IPHOTO  does not recognize the file and wiil not import them. 

    Thank you for responding. I got the pictures moved with Image Capture.  The method you suggested may work and is interesting as a backup for when I travel.  I just don't know how to accomplish it. I see I can copy & print pictures, but I don't find a menu item to move them. I also don't have a wi fi flash drive to experiment with. Is there a link where I can read up on the process?  Terry

  • How to export photos from iPhoto on a MacBook Pro to an iPhone 5s?

    I'd like to be able to sync all my photos on iPhoto with my new iPhone 5s.  I'm missing a significant amount of photos after switching from 4s to 5s (I lost my 4s so I didn't have a chance to back up right before I lost it, however I did back it up within a few weeks of losing it).
    Thanks for your help.

  • How do I create a desktop Icon for Adobe create pdf?

    How do I create a desktop icon for Adobe create pdf?

    Hi, ken.
    You can access ExportPDF from your computer more quickly in three ways:
    You can download and install the CreatePDF Desktop Application. More info is here. With this application, you can drag PDF files onto a desktop icon and have those converted to Office files. (If you subscribe to the CreatePDF service, this application will also allow you to create PDF files.)
    You can download and install the newest Adobe Reader and access the service using Reader's Tools Pane on right. Then, any time you have PDF open in Reader, you can (with a couple of clicks) convert that PDF to an Office file.
    You can drag the webpage icon from your browser to your desktop. This will create a shortcut to the ExportPDF website on your desktop. Here are some instructions for doing that using Internet Explorer or Firefox.
    Let us know if you have additional questions or issues.

  • How to change Firewall remoted desktop port?

    How to change Firewall remoted desktop port
    I have changed the listening port in the registry.
    I added a rule for incoming for RDT.
    I can find the rules, and other items in the Firewall lists.
    But I cannot find how to edit to change the port number.
    Other threads indicate just added an open port not designating RDT as the program.
    Guidance please.

    >So, when inserting a new rule and choosing RDT from the program list automatically inserts the default port number? 
    My fault.  You should not select RDT from the program list, but instead
    select the radio button for port, then click next, select TCP, and add in
    the port number, then next and continue on with setting allow connection
    and then when does this rule apply.
