How to play Abode Encore CS6 on Macbook Pro OSXLion 10.7.5

When I try to open Adobe Encore I get a pop up box saying that "Power PC Applications are no longer supported"? Does anyone know how to enable this MacBook Pro 2011 running OSX Lion 10.7.5 to play Encore? I checked and it seems that enabling the 64 bit kernel might be the issue? I dont know how to turn this on though? Thanks

The version of Adobe Encore that you have IS a "PowerPC" application which will only run on older Motorola processors or Snow Leopard (under emulation named "Rosetta"). PowerPC apps are not compatible with Lion (10.7.5 - which your profile indicates that you're running).
The last version that shipped was with CS6 (which you may be able to find online: Adobe has stopped selling 'boxes' with DVD installations). It is no longer part of the Adobe Creative Cloud (CC) suite.
Sorry,

How to play a dvd on a macbook pro with retina display

I recently bought a Macbook pro with retina display and was suprised to see that there is no slot to put a dvd or cd into. For the amount paid i feel this is ridiculous. However wish to seek a solution, does anyone know of how to solve this problem? Thankyou

Purchase an external DVD drive and attach it to your rMBP. Or you can purchase the Apple model specifically made for it:

I had a chat with someone on Netflix and he told me that this is a Silverlight problem an Mac and the browser who use it, he refer me to use Google Chrome instead because don't need Silverlight and it worked. Now for Netflix on my Macbook I'll use Chrome.

If you are downloading via iPhoto, the movies should be downloaded directly along with the stills.

I downloaded and bought a movie from iTunes on my iPad and now want the same movie on my MacBook Pro but its not offering me to download it, it giving me the options of buying it which I already did. How I get the movie onto my MacBook?

You can connect the iPad to your Mac's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, that should copy it over to the Movies part of your library.
Depending upon what country that you are in, and whether the film studio allows it, you might also be able to re-download it on your Mac via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page.

I want to transfer an audiobook and a movie from my MacBook Pro to my iPhone 4S, and can't figure out how. I went to "Help" and it said after connecting the two devices I should "Click Apps," but I can't find anything labeled "Apps" to click. Help?!!

If you have iTunes 11 on your Mac then you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S, that might make it easier to navigate.
Connect the phone to your Mac and select it on that left-hand sidebar, and on the right-hand side of the screen there should be a series of tabs which you can use to select what to sync to the phone. If it's an audiobook then it should appear on the Books tab for selecting/syncing, and films will be on the Movies tab. When you've got the audiobook on your phone you should get an Audiobooks option in the Music app (you might need to tap the '...' tab at the bottom of the Music app to see it).

How do I burn a cd on macbook pro to play on cd player?

How do I burn a cd on macbook pro to play on cd player? Spotlight has never heard of such a thing.

I already have them in itunes and have dragged them onto a burn folder and burned the cd. But if I put the cd in a cd player I only hear a loud buzz. I have done this before but have forgotten where to find the directions -- there used to be a link you could click to burn for a cd player.

How do you move iMovies from MacBook Pro to iMac?

How do you move iMovies from MacBook Pro to iMac? I started some projects on my MacBook Pro but would rather have the larger working area provided on the iMac large 27 inch screen.

Hi there rainyri!
The easiest way for you to do this is to transfer the information to an external drive as an intermediary, then transfer the information from your drive to the internal drive on your iMac. We have an article that explains the steps for doing this, and it can be found here:
