Cannot download Mavericks on thius computer when this computer has all requirements.

Your profile shows a 1998 model, which is too old.
Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks.
To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher

I have bought a Macbook Pro Retina, and the iPhoto which comes with it, has a different iPhoto Book menu. I cannot see how to put text at the bottom of the pages of photographs, instead of the default place in the middle. Is there a way to do this?

There are different templates for iPhoto books and they differ from version of iPhoto to iPhoto, so explore the other options.

Hi, I have had my MacBook Pro stolen and the police have mentioned about using iCloud to see if I can track it's whereabouts - however I have no idea if I had iCloud on my MacBook or how to track it if I did - can anyone help me please? Thanks :)

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
To see if you have iCloud, open http://www.icloud.com and log in with your Apple ID. If you can access to iCloud, you have iCloud. If you get an error message or you can't access, you don't have iCloud. This only works if you only have the Mac (not an iPhone, iPod touch or iPad with iCloud).
Apart from that, "Find my Mac" must be turned on in the Mac in order to track it, so if it wasn't turned on, you won't be able to track it. If it was turned on, the computer must be connected to the Internet to be tracked.
If you can access to iCloud through http://www.icloud.com, choose "Find my iPhone" and look at the Devices list. If your MacBook Pro shows up, "Find my Mac" is turned on, so see if you can track it and tell to the police that it's possible to track your MacBook Pro

HT3625 I have a 2012 macBook Pro 13" and the option "Use audio port for" does not appear at all in the sound menu. why is this? im running mountain Lion 10.8.2

I have a 2012 macBook Pro 13" and the option "Use audio port for" does not appear at all in the sound menu. why is this? im running mountain Lion 10.8.2

Because line-in has been removed.
It does allow for an Apple headset with mic., but I don't know if it would work with third-party ones.
You'll need to use a Griffin iMic or similar to use line-in via a USB port.
The same goes for the 15" retina, the newest MBA and the new iMac (whenever it finally arrives).

I have the latest Macbook Pro retina and I am having trouble getting it to mirror from my Apple TV to the actual TV

I have the latest Macbook Pro retina and I have looked on line for ways to hook it up to Apple TV, but all ways have failed to do so. However, I can easily access Apple TV through my Iphone 4s.
~ When I turn on Apple TV and Airplay and connect only the Macbook Screen goes into the mirror tv format. Nothing shows up at all on the TV.

Awesome, thanks everyone for your brilliant ideas in regards to trouble shooting this issue.

Hello All, I have a Model - MacBook Pro Laptop and the screen recently turned grey giving me zero visibility or access to the computer. Has anyone else seen or had this problem? Is it fixable or should I get a new unit?

Hello all,
I have a Model - MacBook Pro Laptop and the screen recently turned the colour grey, giving me no visibility or access to the unit.
Has anyone had or seen this problem before? Can it be fixed? I had a repair guy from my local Mac Store take a look at it - he said I needed a whole new screen and top of the computer, but this didn't fix the problem. I took the unit home unrepaired, and a week later it was all of a sudden working fine.
What is happening with my Laptop? Once this happens (grey screen) does it mean that it's going to become a chronic problem?
Please advise....Thanks

It's kind of difficult to diagnosis your problem without a visual clue, because there is a (mostly) software based "gray screen" at boot issue.
But if you got the screen replaced, took it home and now it works, why the repair shop didn't get it working before it left the store is beyond me.
Unless the repair shop is a authorized apple reseller/repair, I wouldn't have taken it to them, and of you did, they should have fixed the issue right away.

I have a new macBook Pro 15 and need to purchase best, easiest usb for backup - help please

I have a new MacBook Pro 15" and need to purchase the easiest, cost-effective USB for backup. I have never done a backup and don't know what to buy. Thanks much from an obvious novice.

Look at these two links to OWC products. Note that one is for enclosures only so an appropriate HDD would have to be added. This at least should give you an idea of what is available.

HT201364 I have a new macbook pro and the os x mavericks says I don't have it. I am trying to install

I have a new mac book pro and the os x mavericks says I don't have this and it won't install. What do I do? Thank you.

If you have a new MacBook Pro, it should already have Mavericks (10.9). To verify, click the Apple logo in the top left corner and select "About this Mac". What does it state for version?

Why does my Macbook pro keyboard and trackpad randomly become unresponsive forcing restart in OSX Mavericks?

Randomly when using OSX Mavericks, since installing yesterday, my mid-2012 Macbook Pro keyboard and trackpad freeze and become unresponsive.
The computer is still running whatever I was doing, the computer does not crash, i just cannot control it and the only way I have found as a fix is to restart.
This never happened in Mountain Lion.
Can anyone help?

Very similarly.
Mac Mini late 2012. i7 CPU, 16GB ram. 12GB unused.
After installing Mavericks, it seems to grind my system to a halt. It is still running (I can move the cursor and activity monitor updates processes) but every application I try to launch results in a colorful waiting sign. It even can take a minute or more before an application shows "any" sign of starting.
I tried to open a terminal session (so I could manually kill a process) but the terminal session did not even process. It timed out after 5 minutes.
Acitivity monitor shows 90-95% idle and I have no idea what's causing it.
I have already rebuild disk and reset permissions (all seemed fine) 3 times.
I've rebooted over 8 times since last night. I cannot use my Mac anymore reliably.
Please help.

I have a 2009 macbook pro 13" and want to make videos what is the best one for this mac A1278

what is a good video editor for my 2009 macbook pro 13"?

I don't see any DDR3L on the page for the RAM that would fit your model -> http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3_133 3MHz_SDRAM.
But the answer is that it doesn't really matter - just make certain to get 1333MHz.
Good luck,

After migrating to new Macbook Pro, Photoshop and Bridge constantly Version Cue Crash

I just upgraded to the new MacBook Pro and CS4 crashes any time I try to open a file. "Fatal error - missing component /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Version Cue CS4/Client/4.0.0/VersionCue.framework" I've read that the best thing to do for that error is to uninstall and reinstall, but my new machine does not have an optical drive, so my old disks don't help much. Also, I bought CS4 during a limited offer for upgrades to CS1, so I had to call technical support to get it activated, so even if I did manage to reinstall (perhaps by copying my install disks to a USB drive?) I'm expecting to have trouble with reactivating. Any advice before I start tinkering?

Thanks! I deactivated it from both the old and new computers, followed the instructions here to copy the install files and it all just worked.
Strangely enough, it did not ask me to reactivate after reinstalling. It's just working. It doesn't seem to be upadating properly (I run update, and it comes up with the same 9 updates I just downloaded and applied) but I'll probably be upgrading to CS6 or creative cloud before year's end, so this will do for now.
Thanks again!

My Macbook Pro hang and cannot log off in Lion 10.7.1

Ocassionally, I log off my Macbook Pro early 2008, running Lion 10.7.1. This never be a problem in SNow Leopard
But now, when I hit log out from Apple Menu, my Mac just hang on the gray screen having mouse arrow on the screen. Mouse can be moved using trackpad, but it just hang there
I have to press power button to force shut down and reboot.
Why this stupid and annoying problem occurred? Fix please
And if any friend and expert here have solution, please help and advise

part of the reason it hangs a little may be because of the new Resume feature in Lion try quiting all applications before logging out and see if that changes anything my only other solution is my login hang/freeze fix which can be found at this link
