My MacBookPro 2009 install dvd is scratched and can't be used anymore.

Call Applecare and request one. Have your systems serial number ready. There will be a nominal charge.

How to get and install the new MSI Bluetooth Software Package 1.4.3.3.

How to get and install the new MSI Bluetooth Software Package 1.4.3.3.
This little FAQ will only cover the new version of MSI Bluetooth Software Package.
First thing too do is unistall any older version of the MSI Bluetooth Software.
Do this through the Add/Remove program applet in your control panel.
There seams too be only through Live update you could get the new version of MSI Bluetooth Software Package.
If you can't see any enter for MSI Bluetooth Software in the Live driver section of Live update then you have too enter the following too your registry.
Create following code in Notepad and save it as MSILD.reg, then run the file.
;-->Code start
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MSI\Drivers\MSI Bluetooth Software]
"DrvSetup"="1"
"Version"="1.4.2.10"
;-->Code end
Rerun the Live update and hopefully you will now see a entry for MSI Bluetooth Software in Live driver section.
Install the new version of MSI Bluetooth Software and reboot your computer. Even if the setup program doesnt told you too doit.
After rebooting the computer you will see the Bluetooth icon in the taskbar. If it's Red then try too start the Bluetooth services by right click on the try icon and the only alternetiv there is.
If the Bluetooth services is asking for a valid licens.dat then you should do the following.
Surf to Jon's Bluetooth guide http://www.jonsguides.com./bluetooth/prepare.html and download the patcher from the link there.
Unzip the the patcher and then run the BTWPatcher.exe program.
Now the Bluetooth services will start and you will bee able too configure your own settings for the Bluetooth services.
If nothing of this work you could try the complete Bluetooth solution at Jon's gudie and install the IBM version of the same program. I havent test this solution and will not do soo.

I have the MS-6968 device and i want to use driver 1.4.x or 3.0.x. I found the driver 1.4.2.10 but i cannot find any WIDCOMMSecurity code.
So, can anyone give me a link for BTWPatcher.exe???
It cannot be found here (Jon's Bluetooth ) anymore.
Thanks

How to get OID installed?

I have installed 8.1.7.0.0 Enterprise Edition, but cannot for the life of me figure out how to get OID installed. I have run the universal installer, but don't seem to see it anywhere. Can anyone please enlighten me.
Thanks,
Phil

Hi Phil:
As you have discovered, just doing a database installation will not install OID. When you bring up the OUI instead
of selecting a database insallation select the bottom selection which I beleive is called Management Infrastructure.
After selecting this you will get another screen of selections of which Oracle Internet Direcotry will be one of the
choices. Durring the installation OID will detect any existing database instances and ask you if you want to use one
of them. If you choose no to this it will install OID and a new isntance of the database at the same time.
Hope this helps,
Jay

How to get win7 installed on optibay HDD on macbook pro

Hi all,
so I am in a bit of a pickle
I recently bought a new 15" MPB with an apple installed 128gb SSD drive.
My plan was to install a 2nd hard drive in the DVD spot, a 500gb with a 70ish GB win7 partition. I would like to use Win 7 for screencasting for windows tutorials and for Gaming...mostly for gaming
I thought, naively, that this would be a simple boot agent setup...boy was I wrong.
I have already installed the 500gb drive in the optibay, it is working fine
I did not realize that a macbook pro cannot boot to an external drive or dvd. I could be wrong here but all my research seems to indicate that it can't...using something like refit does not fix this problem
I tried going through the boot camp setup with my external dvd drive attached through USB...did not work
also tried a USB thumb drive...no dice
sooo
any ideas on how to get a win7 install on my 2nd drive?
I'd like to avoid having win7 on my 128gb ssd as there is limited space
can I install win7 on the drive on an actual windows machine and then transfer it to the macbook?
could I install the win7 partition to my ssd boot drive and then use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone the partition to the 500gb?
its actually kind of an interesting problem...but I'm stumped
any and all help appreciated.

I'm sure someone else who knows about this will pitch in. Although my monitor is HP 23 inch and has both VGA and HDMI and have no issues. I don't have the miniport to VGA connector so I can't test it out with the VGA. Sorry for my inconvenience.

How to get Lion on DVD

for the remote chance my machine will crash, be undable to download another version of the OS, how do I get Lion on DVD

You didn't say if you have a new machine that had Lion already installed. Apple will not be issuing a Lion DVD, but they do offer a Lion thumb drive available from the Apple store for $69.00. If you purchased and downloaded it from the Apple store, you can download it again at no charge (you also didn't tell us if you mean a defunct hard drive, or an inability to boot up). If you mean a hard drive problem, you will have to replace the drive and install SL 10.6.8 (I believe that you need that installed in order to install Lion) before doing anything else. Then, if you purchased from the Apple store, you can return there, go to the Lion page, option click on the "purchases" tag (it will turn blue) and it will bring you to the page that lists your purchases. Lion will be there, and you should be able to install it from there.
On the other hand, if you have Lion on your machine now, you can make a bootable DVD or flash drive from it. Rather than trying to explain the process here, I recommend that you go to: http://www.macworld.com where you will find articles on how to make the bootable DVD or flash drive.
I hope this helps.

Can I get replacement install DVD?

Hello all. My install DVD doesn't work. When I try to use it, my PB says it can't read it properly and that there is a fault. Can I get a replacement from Apple and how? Do I have to take it into an Apple Store to have it checked or something?
Mark.

Just a note,
I am not sure where you purchased your copy of Tiger or if it came with your machine, (Software is machine specific). If you upgraded from 10.3.9 to Tiger you needed to use this DVD.

Mac Book Pro, Bad disk but I can't get the install DVD to work

I have a 13" macbook pro that started to have problems with different apps. They would crash immediately when you clicked on them. I ran disk utility repair permissions and everything was ok but when I went to verify the disk it reported that the drive was corrupt. I bought a new drive, installed the drive and inserted the Install DVD that came with the machine. After a few minutes I get a message "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button...." I tried using a Leopard install DVD and same problem. Originaly this machine came with SL but I figured since I am using a new disk (unformated I assume) that any OS install DVD would get me formatted and back to a point where I could connect with Time Machine and restore. I swapped out the RAM, HDD cable and DVD drive with another MPP with the same results. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks OrangeMarlin.
I have several MPP's. The one that is failing originaly came with SL. I don't have an SL disk so I attempted to use a Leopard to install a brand new disk drive. I would have thought that it didn't matter if it was SL or Leopard since it was a new disk (no reference of what was on it before). I could see an issue with compatability between a Intel OS on a G5 but SL vs Leopard on an Intel MPP should be OK. Thoughts?
The install DVD I am using "should" be the correct disk. I understand the sensitivity of using the disk that came with the machine. The reason I think this it is the ocrrect disk is it says 13" MPP and 10.6 for the OS which fits the description of what this machine had on it when it was purchased. I don't believe I have any other 13" machines with SL.
I also ran the diagnostics last eve. All passed.
I'm thinking of putting a working 10.5 disk from another machine into the failing machine and running Verify from the disk utility to see if I get the same error. If so, I would assume my disk controller is bad and need a new motherboard.

How to get slideshow on dvd for tv

I have a slideshow in iPhoto, also have it as a project in iMovie, and cannot get it onto DVD to view on tv from either place. Cannot find iDVD on the system, although I can select from iMovie to have share it with iDVD. It processes it, which takes about 3 minutes, but never opens into iDVD so I can burn it. I've tried it from finder, and it burns it but won't work on tv dvd player. Anyone know how to do this?

Hi
If this is a New Mac - then there is no iDVD on it - even as iMovie think so.
If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
• iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
• DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
• Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
• Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
only You can buy from Apple is
• FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
AppleMan1958
You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

How to get iMovie onto dvd to play on dvd or computer with a Mac Book Pro 2011

I am new to Mac and have a MacBook Pro with Lion OS 10.7.3 I purchased it mainly to for work but also to make small movies of my baby to send on DVD to family interstate. I am now struggling to work out how to get the movie onto a DVD. Surely there is capability with the technology I have.
Thanks

When you say above that iDVD will be updated to the latest version by Apple....how is that true since Apple no longer supports iDVD?
Apple does support iDVD. Software update will update the latest version of iDVD automatically. (Incidentally, software update will also update iMovie 06.) For the best quality, I use iMovie 06 with iDVD 11.
Apple only sells iDVD on disk as part of iLife 11.
Various resellers continue to get fresh inventory of iLife 11 on disk (with iDVD) from Apple.
I received an update to iDVD only a few months ago (after the release of lion).
Apple supports iDVD on this forum. Further, iDVD is still supported in Apple stores.
https://discussions.apple.com/community/ilife/idvd
IDVD remains a popular application in the Apple community. For a variety of obvious reasons Apple would prefer your movies to be stored on the cloud. Many people however prefer to have a physical copy, that they can possess, that is easily playable on over 700 million DVD players worldwide.
I will occasionally put a movie I have made on the web. My friends and relatives will rarely watch it. On the other hand, if I mail them a DVD they ALWAYS watch it

How to get Original OS DVD That Came With MacBook Pro

Hi,
I bought this MacBook Pro last year - I think I did not get a restore DVD with the OS etc. with it. Is there a way for me to get it from Apple?
Thanks,
Apurva

You can get replacement System Install & Restore CD/DVDs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and/or serial number of your Mac available.
If you're not in the US, you may need to go through the regional Apple Store that serves your location to find the contact number. Here's a list of links to all of those -

How to get and install an older ISO on iphone 4s

I have an old iphone 4S I have kept only for my grandson to play games on. He likes Lasertag. the game worked fine until I updated to ISO7. I have reloaded Lasertag twice and it still will now work. I would like to reinstall ISO6 on this phone. I do not know how to get it nor how to reinstall it.
Please help. Jerry ****
<Edited by Host>

Apple does not support downgrading the iOS. I suggest you start a new question that gives a good title to a specific problem. Then in the body of the thread describe the problem in detail, tell us what steps you have tried so far to correct the problem, what happened, and what error messages you received.

How to get video from DVD into FCE?

Hi,
I have a DVD which I got from a childhood friend. The DVD contains a compilation of old film clips (her family had old super 8 movies transferred to DVD). I'm trying to import the clip (it's one long video clip, 30 mins long) into FCE for editing. But, when I try to import, all I see on the DVD is one file folder labeled VIDEO_TS; this folder contains eight files with strange suffixes, such as .IFO, .VOB, and .BUP, none of which are accessible. Anyone have any idea how I can get the files into Final Cut Express?
I would really appreciate any advice. Thank you.
Vic

Hi again, Martin. I did the 'conversion', and it appeared something was happening (i.e. a 'progress bar' showed that something was going on, and it took about 20 mins or so. So, I figured it was doing the conversion. Once done, a 'play' button appeared, but when I pressed it, nothing happened. Does that sound like I'm missing the MPEG2 Playback Component?
Note: I noticed during the conversion an indication that the file, about 2 gigs seemed to be being created, but for the life of me, I don't know where the file went (i.e. I don't know where (or even if) it was stored on my computer). Anyways, the process seems not to have worked. I guess, as you said, I'll need to purchase the Playback Component?
Thanks for your help.

How to get and install 10.2.0.3 patch for Oracle XE (express)

Total newby here, pardon the stupid question....
I've installed Oracle XE but I've been told I need the patch that updates the database to 10.2.0.3. I can only find a patch for Vista, I'm on XP. When I go to the metalink(?) page it says I need to have a support ID.
How do I get a support ID (free) for XE, or is there something I'm missing.
Thx,
Mark

1) Just for sanity, I'm assuming that you posted a Metalink Note ID, not a bug. Metalink Note 334968.1 refers to bug 3807408.
2) The patches referenced in that bug would appear to relate to the Oracle client. Assuming proper licenses, I would expect that you could patch the Oracle clients accessing the XE database and resolve the issue.
3) The Metalink note references an alternate workaround of installing Visual Studio in a non-default location that doesn't include parenthesis.

How to get rid of DVD interlace?

I encoded my source file in adobe media encoder. It is progressive 23.87 mpeg2-DVD and looks great on the computer but after Encore authors it to DVD, I put it in my DVD player and it looks interlaced with jagged edges especially with movement. It's not horrendous but I would like to get rid of the interlacing probelms if I can. I already tried and used media encoder to make my source file interlaced at 29.97 but once through encore it looked worse.
I know that NTSC DVD's are 29.97 interlaced but professional DVD's do not have the interlace issues that I am having. How do I get rid of the interlacing? I have already changed my transcode settings and quality presets. I did one for 23.97 progressive and the other for 29.97 interlaced lower field both with matching export source files. What can I do to maintain a quality image and get rid of the interlacing?

Try this:
Select a Widescreen MPEG2 DVD preset in the AME.
Make sure to select Maximum Render Quality in the Video tab settings
Import the M2V and WAV files as a timeline into a new En project.
Make sure the Project panel shows the M2V file as "Don't Transcode"
Author and burn a disc and test in a hardware DVD player.
If the resulting video has any blocking artifacts they can be fixed with bit rate adjustments. You're looking for jaggies and/or combing artifacts. Hopefully there won't be any.
Also make sure that your playback pipeline is appropriate for DVD -- either test on a SD CRT or make sure your DVD/BD player or HDTV has acceptable upscaling quality. If the player or the TV don't upscale well, then nothing you can do will fix that.
