How to get iDVD on macbook pro retina display without buying disk

I just bought a new MacBook Pro and I was wondering how I can get iDVD on it without having to buy iLife again.

If you already have iDVD 7 on an install disk use that. If not, you will have to find iLife 8 or later on eBay or Amazon.

    Unfortunately, that is not possible. The computer only can "output" your display image, it cannot "input" an image from an external computer and display it on your MacBook's retina display.

  • How do I downgrade my MacBook Pro Retina Display from Mountain Lion to Lion?

    I have a brand new MacBook Pro Retina Display that came with OS X 10.8.1.
    I´m an audio engineer so I work with Pro Tools, tons of plug-ins etc... Some of my software doesn't work with Mountain Lion just yet. Some of them haven't upgraded, and some of them I need to purchase a latest version, which is not cheap at all in the audio world. So I'd like to hang on to Lion for a while until I decide to upgrade everything to Mountain Lion.
    I've seen other posts about this -> https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4148927?start=0&tstart=0
    This one in particular managed to make the downgrade. However, he used to have OS X 10.7.4 in his retina display when he bought it. Which is something that doesn't happen in my case.
    If you read the other post you can see that several methods have been tried.
    Is it really safe to completely erase my hard drive and to a clean install of Lion? Will it work perfectly fine on my Retina Display?
    I went to one Apple Store, and the guy asked around and told me they haven't done it before, so since they didn't know whether it was going to work they couldn't do it. He told me to do it myself and if something happened to my laptop, "just bring it in and we'll reinstall the stock OS X again."
    Since the laptop is brand new I don't mind erasing everything, all my stuff is already backed up.
    So help me please?

    The short of it is if it came with 10.8.1 you can't install an OS less than that.

  • How protect my new Macbook Pro Retina Display without Kensington lock ???

    Hi!
    As the title says, how I can protect my new MBP Retina Display?
    I found this browsing some forums:
    http://store.griffintechnology.com/techsafe-cable-lock-system
    But, i don't know if it works with the new MBP Retina.
    Any suggestions?
    thx

    Understood.
    I don't understand why Apple did not add a kensington lock. Not need much space...
    They have taken what was already an almost impossibly thin engineering marvel and made it significantly thinner. I wonder if, because of this, some compromises to the internal frame had to be made therebye not allowing a locking point to attach to anything "significant" inside the MBP, and, if it was simply tethered to the outer casing, it was be all too easy to snip/break away, making it almost useless.

    There are a few different Locks for the Retina Macbook Pro. I had this same problem, however- i had found this and hopefully it will answer your question.
    MacLocks Lock and Security Case Bundle. This is a Lock which is basically part of the case for your Macbook. It adds an extra 0.7lbs.

  • How to install CS5 on macbook pro retina display?? I have the original CD but mac doesn't have cd

    I can't find the PS CS5 to install the trial anyways... so i need a solution

    You will need a computer to "burn" the CD image onto a USB/thumb drive. I say burn, not copy, because you cannot simply copy the disk image. There are multiple Free OpenSource programs that can copy a disk image onto a thumb drive, so I will not suggest one. Burning an image, rather than copying will delete files on a thumb drive just as it would with a rewritable disk.
    If it is an IMG and not an ISO image, I believe you may be able to copy it directly to a thumb drive and mount the image to install the program. You may also mount an ISO that has been copied if you have the correct program, but I would not advise it.
    All of this should permitted within the license areement for the most restrictively licensed programs, so long as no copy is left on the computer used to copy the image, you keep the CD only as a backup, you are only using the copy to install a program for which you have a license, and you only install the program on one computer that you own and control.
    I am not an attorney and do not work for Adobe, so you should read the license before following my advice to be sure.

  • Photoshop elements 10 will not migrate to my new macbook pro/retina display.  There is no CD/DVD player on this machine.  Any suggestions on how to get Elements onto my machine?  Yes, I have the disk(s).

    I have ordered a USB3 BluRay/DVD/CD player/burner and will use that both with my iMac ( in which the Superdrive seems to be failing ) and the MBPro Retina I just bought .

  • How can I open Adobe Bridge CS6 in high resolution on my MacBook Pro Retina display?

    How can I open Adobe Bridge CS6 in high resolution on my MacBook Pro Retina display? When I click Get Info, the "Open in Low Resolution" box is marked and locked. How can I unmark this box? I currently run 10.9.1. I can open Adobe Photoshop CS6 in high resolution without any problem. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    There is no such thing. In CS6 only PS itself is Retina compatible. You would have to use CC for full Retina support.

  • I just purchased my Macbook Pro retina display OS X 10.7.4 in June 2012. Shortly after I began using it, it began randomly restarting itself while in use. Why and how do I fix this?

    So as I said in the title, I purchased my new Macbook Pro retina display OS X 10.7.4 in June 2012 and recieved in early July. Shortly after I started using the laptop, it began randomly restarting itself. It does this about once a week while I am just using the laptop for normal internet browsing. I haven't downloaded any outside software that the system could be rejecting and it is fully charged. Any ideas on why this is happening or how to fix it?
    Also this is a total random question, but there is a residue on my laptop that is faint but randomly shows up. I'm almost positive that it is nothing on my hands or where I place the laptop. I wasn't sure if it was something possibly coming from the side vents. Thanks for the help!

    Exactly what Shootist007 states - take it in for service or replacement - could be a simple software issue or it could be a hardware issue...
    Don't even bother messing with it.....Might screw up even more.....
    Make sure your files are backed up in case they give you a replacement....
    Good luck - hope you get it sorted out...
