It depends on what they are. Generally, a Mac OS X application will have a distinctive icon; if they’re all documents(not Windows applications), double-click all of them.

    Purchase new superdrive, takes 2-3 weeks for shipping at my city.
    It can't be done. If your computer has an internal optical drive, working or not, that is the drive you must use. Only computers such as the Macbook Pro Retina/Macbook Air that have no internal optical drive can install Windows from an external drive.

  • How to sync photos from MacBook Pro to iPad 3?

    How to sync photos from MacBook Pro to iPad 3 without it automatically deleting previously synced photos, or replacing them with new ones?

    How can I create albums in the Photos app on the iPad
    Photos that were taken with the iPad (or any photos in the camera roll) can be deleted right on the iPad. Tap the trash can icon in the top right corner if you are viewing the pho,to in full screen, or if you are viewing as thumbnails - tap the arrow in the upper right corner - tap the photos that you want to delete and then tap - Delete.
    Photos that were synced from your computer using iTunes can only be deleted by de-selecting them from the folder from where they were synced -  and then re-syncing.

    I doubt the license is affecting the performance - it might be a case of the software being too old for the machine.
    In any case, you can contact Adobe support thru chat and have them reset your activation count to eliminatre your doubts regarding the license.

    Just a final question about Sleep mode - does this have any negative effects on the life or performance of the laptop? I'm so used to Shutting down the laptop each day that I worry about Sleep mode having some sort of drain on the components or something.
    There are only two practical differences between Sleep and Shut Down:
    1. Sleep will wake instantly, so you don't have to wait for startup.
    2. Sleep will drain a new, fully charged battery after several days without being woken or plugged in. If you shut down, the battery charge lasts much longer. Obviously, if you only sleep it overnight, you'll still have plenty of battery left in the morning.
    Don't sleep it more frequently than necessary, though. Frequently turning the backlight and hard drive off and on can shorten their life. Just do what's reasonable. I usually leave mine awake until I have to transport it in a bag, along with sleeping it overnight. On battery, I'll sleep it more often to preserve battery.

  • How do i move pictures from my macbook pro to a portable drive

    How do I move my pictures from my macbook pro to a portable drive?

    Drag them there in the Finder. If you're moving an iPhoto library and not loose photos, the drive, partition, or disk image you're putting them on needs to be formatted as Mac OS Extended.

  • Loading CS5 Master Collection onto new Macbook Pro with no DVD drive

    I have a complete, legitimate, registered version of CS5 Master Collection. I also have a new Macbook Pro with no DVD drive. I have lost the disk, but have the box and confirmation email when I registered the product, with the key code. This product cost alot of money and I really need to get it onto my new machine. Can I do this without having the additional cost of a new DVD drive? I already paid for and own the software with keys so it's not like I'm trying to bend anything or do it for free. Any advice would be appreciated thank you.

    Download the CS5 Master Collection trial version from

  • Do the air/pro herschel cases fit the macbook pro with the cd drive?

    My boyfriend owns the macbook pro with the cd drive. I am trying to purchase him a herschel case (they are sold in the accessory section in the apple store, online as well as in store)
    My only concern is that I know the air and the new pro are thinner, more sleek then the macbook pro with the cd drive and I'm just curious to know if the herschel cases that say "fits air/pro 13inch" actually fit the macbook with the cd drive.
    Any answers would be very much so appreciated!
    Thank you.

    yes their a difference.  The retna model is slimmer and doesnt have an optical drive.
