Wonder if anyone can help? Have just bought a new Macbook pro and installed FCP7. I thought that I would get quicktime pro but stuck with QTX. Downloaded QT7 but it won't let me install it. Any suggestions? B

Wonder if anyone can help? Have just bought a new Macbook pro and installed FCP7. I thought that I would get quicktime pro as standard but stuck with QTX. Downloaded QT7 but it won't let me install it. Says I can't do install as I already have QTX. Does FCP not come with QTpro or am I jsut being stupid. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks. B

Hi there,
Are you running Lion or Snow Leopard? either way this may help by the looks of it.

Can I take my new MacBook Pro retina to an apple store for them to transfer files

Can I take my new MacBook Pro retina to an apple store for them to transfer files from my PC? I am migrating from window 7. I was planning on doing myself but it looks like you need two thunderbolt to Ethernet adapters and two Ethernet cables? What is the best way to transfer? I live in a rural area and think maybe wirelessly may not be the best way? Thanks for any assistance!

Can I use my back up from my PC to transfer? I just backed up my PC to WD My Book. Will that work?
Probably will work fine. It's worth a try and won't do any harm.

What you can transfer to your Mac depends on the files.
Photo files (.jpg .tiff etc) fine
Music files - some may need conversion software to be used in iTunes (unless you had iTunes on your PC) but free converters are there
Video files - ditto, some will work in iMovie, others may need converting to work
Text - Pages will read .doc and .docx files. Most Word processing files/spreadsheet files/presentation files can be read in iWork but if not, can use Open Office or Libre Office (both free downloads)
Windows programs (eg those with a .exe suffix) won't work on a Mac without installing Windows (e.g. via BootCamp).

The error that you are seeing has to do with your Internet connection. Try disabling your anti-virus software and connect the iPhone again and try to restore. See this support document for help. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

Anyone have their MacBook Pro repaired at an Apple Store?

I'm reading about people who're getting one-day turnarounds in sending their MacBook Pros in for logic board replacement; in my case, the Geniuses at the Apple Store told me I'd get faster turnaround if I let them do it instead, in-house. It's been a week. No word yet.
Anyone else have major service done in-house at an Apple Store versus send their laptop in? What kind of turnaround did you have? Should I be concerned, at this point?

Hi Jay,
It could be for the fact that they might have to order some parts which might be on back order. If i needed a repair i would take it into the store as well, the advantage being:
-At least when you pick it up you have the option to see there and then whether there is a damage done, whether the repair is done as requested and be able to refer back to the geniuses if need be.
Just give them a call if you are woried but i am sure that it will work out fine.

Detecting bad MacBook Pro's at an Apple Store?

I'm in the market for a Mac Book Pro.
I want to avoid purchasing a bad MacBook and avoid the lengthy process of fighting Applecare when dealing with noise problems.
Here are the problems I don't want:
http://www.red-sweater.com/blog/macbook-pro-noise-complaints/
I want to march into my local mac store and flash them my credit card. Then right before the purchase, I want them to power up the machine so I can run some tests to check for:
1. CPU noise
2. Monitor whine.
3. Heat problems
4. Squeal
5. Mooing Motors
If it fails any of these, then I'm going to demand that they sell it to someone else and get me another box from the back.
Do you think this will work? Why don't more people use this tactic?
I think it's dumb to complain about noise problems AFTER you've paid for it. Just as you wouldn't buy a car without test driving it, I wouldn't buy a $2500 MacBook Pro without testing it first.
Opinions?

HT6114 why does macbook pro restart with the latest software?

Why does macbook pro block and restart with the latest software update?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
In the Console window, look under the heading DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION on the left for crash or panic reports. If you don't see that heading, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
A crash report has a name that begins with the name of the crashed process and ends in ".crash". It may be under either of the two subcategories, "System" and "User." A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic".
Select the most recent of each and post the entire contents — the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post any other kind of diagnostic report, such as a hang log — they're very long and not helpful.

I have a MacBook Pro, it recently started freezing upon startup. It would get to a blue screen and just sit there. I've tried booting in safemode to run disk repair and still doesnt help. If I do manage to get past the blue screen, it still freezes

My mac keeps freezing upon startup. It will get to the blue screen and promptly freeze. If I manage to get past the blue screen, and open up youtube on google chrome, it will freeze before it loads youtube. I've tried safeboot and disk repair, nothing seems to work. I even tried to factory reset it but it wont connect to my internet when I reboot with power + option.. any ideas?

This can be used to boot the machine and delelte enough files to get it to boot normally.
.Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
Read about storage drive so you can store your extra stuff.

Bought a refurb Macbook pro a week ago. Return it for the new one?

I recently bought a refurbished macbook pro and realize that the new one has just come out. Give that I am still within the 14 day window to return it is this course of action advisable? Here are the specs on the refurbished one I just bought for 1600: RFB MBP 15.4/2.3/2X2GB/500/SD/HR-AG-USA . Thanks for sage words of wisdom and advice!

However I also like that the macbook pro is upgradable. My understanding is that the retina one is not. As the new one is retina I assume it is not upgradable.
There are third party storage options:

But installing one will void the warranty. RAM cannot be altered in a retina.

I have a very old (by computer standards) MacBook Pro, and a newer one. I've been using the old one mostly for iTunes, into which I have only CD entries. For a long time, years, the old MacBook pro ceased entering the song titles. This is very time consuming for me, so I finally investigated a bit further.
I discovered how to enter the track titles onto my newer MacBook Pro, and was so pleased! But when I tried to do the same with the other laptop, it failed.
What I did, basically, was what the Apple Help suggested--choose iTunes General Preferences, etc.etc. And yes, I did upgrade the old laptop to the newest iTunes version.
Am I just wasting my time here? Is there some reason why an older Mac Pro will not do what the newer one will, with regard to iTunes?
My older laptop is a 2.6 GHz Core Duo; it has 36 GB of "memory available." The newer one a 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7. It has 284 GB of memory available.
Both are using the same version of Snow Leopard--10.6.8.

Just bought a used MacBook pro after my previous died. I want to migrate my applications, data, etc from a time machine backup of the old computer to the new. Will this affect, or overwrite the Apps., data, etc existing on the new machine?

No. Only those Apps that are not installed on the new will migrate over.

I want to install Mavericks on my new SSD before putting it in my MacBook Pro, is this possible?

I want to install Mavericks on my new SSD before putting it in my MacBook Pro, is this possible? If so how can I do it. My MBP can run and is running Macericks now on my HDD. I do not want to transfer my file, I would prefer a fresh install on my new SDD.
Thanks in advance for all your help.

Connect the SSD with an external enclosure. Boot the system holding down the Command and R keys to get to the Recovery partition. Partition and format the drive with Disk Utility, then install. You're done.
