  • What is the exact name of the cable I need to connect my old hard drive from my macbook pro (it has been taken out of the computer) to my new macbook pro?  I need to transfer files from the old hard drive to the new computer.

    No eSATA to USB. Just a SATA/IDE to USB adapter. Google SATA/IDE to USB adapter and you will get tons of links to buy them. Most likely your local computer electronics store has them, although they might be more expensive buying locally than online.
    I have several. You can get either USB 2, which what I recommend, or USB 3. USB is backward compatible so a USB 3 adapter will work on a USB 2 port and a USB 2 adapter will work on a USB 3 port. Backward compatible in both directions.
    I suggest a USB 2 type because there have been some problems with certain USB 3 devices, the USB 3 interface used isn't all that good in those certain devices. USB 3 is still fairly new where as USB 2 has been around for over 10 years.

    Thank you LowLuster,
    At the apple store they said I needed an esata to usb wire.  But looking at wires on line has been confusing.  Is sata the same as esata?  How do I know if I need a usb 3 or usb 2?

  • 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.

  • HT204053 i have my iphone 4 photos on my macbook pro but i need to delete them from phone now.. How? when i did they reappeared?? must be a iCloud setting i am thinking?

    photo's not phones sorry

    OK, so what you need to do is when you hook up your phone to the Mac, and open iTunes, click on the iPhone that shows under Devices in iTunes (left-hand column). Then you will see a Summary page displayed with the iPhone information.
    You will also see several "tabs" with various types of sync options - Music, Photos, Books, etc.
    Click on the Photos tab and you will see a box that says Sync Photos. If you uncheck this, then nothing will sync back to the phone. You can also check it, but then selectively pick which photo albums or events you want to sync.
    Also, if you have iCloud and photo stream turned on, you will continue to see any photos in your photo stream, regardless of whether you have sync'd them to your Mac or not.
    Hope this helps, but if you have additional questions, don't hesitate to ask! Welcome to the Apple world!!!

  • How much to replace broken macbook pro screen??

    how much to replace broken macbook pro screen??

    Few thoughts:
    There is a minuscule possibility that you can successfully convince the Genius that the damage was not due to abuse or mishandling. And if it is still under warranty, a new free screen will be yours. Don't get your hopes up too high, though...
    If a Retina, the cost will be so high that maybe selling it for parts and getting a new one might be a better idea.
    Same may apply if it is very old. Not cause the screen costs arm+leg, but because you will be sinking lots of cash onto a sinking ship.
    If handy with tools, can explore PowerBookMedic.com or IFixIt.com for parts prices and howto.

    I recently had to replace my 2009 Macbook Pro's hard drive.  I had the apple store upgrade the OS to Mountain Lion while it was in being repaired.  I want to restore all of my old data and files.  If I perform a restore from Time Machine, with a date prior to having the hard drive replaced, will it revert back to the old OS?

    No, it won't revert to the prior OS X but you you may have third party apps installed that were compatible with Lion that may not be compatible with Mountain Lion.

  • Broken Macbook Pro won't finish copying even with target disk mode. Help!

    Hi,
    I'm helping someone with a Macbook Pro 2010-11. It worked for a few years but eventually degraded last month when it wouldn't go 10 minutes without displaying the rainbow loading ball. Possibly a hard drive problem.
    The owner never backed any of the computer up. I am trying to salvage their data before it's lost. The computer can power on. I have been turning the computer on and salvaging most of the data from numerous trips with USBs until it crashes, and then moving on to Target Disk Mode. The computer turns on slowly, displays the rainbow ball every minute or so, and never finishes copying or exporting anything. It still seems to be degrading.
    I still need two things: One is a large folder with thousands of old OUTLOOK e-mails created on an old PC (which the owner no longer has).
    Second is the folder/autobackup where OUTLOOK for Mac stores all the e-mails and settings.
    I have found the folder -- I think it is the Main Identity or Office Identities. Am I correct? Will this bring back OUTLOOK on the newer Macbook Pro exactly like on the old one? I also know where the old e-mails folder is, but when I try to transfer either folder through Target Disk Mode on the newer Macbook Pro, it stops and gives me the "Some data in _____.olk14msgsource could not be read or written." AKA error code -36, halfway through the transfer.
    I have tried exporting OUTLOOK on the broken Macbook Pro to a .olm, but it gets stuck halfway and gets stuck back on the rainbow ball. Then I shut the computer off. I have also tried going into the folders through target disk mode and deleting the .olk14msgsource files that are problematic, but there are too many of them.
    Please help! The owner needs these files and OUTLOOK exactly like it was!
    Thanks!

    Tried connecting the cable?  Still won't start?
    If you are still under warranty and/or have AC, call them & let them deal w/it.
    OOW:  Take the MBP to your local AS or an AASP.  Diagnostic testing is FREE!

    How much does apple charge to fix a broken macbook pro screen?

    No one here would know for sure...my guess? Somewhere around US $700. You'll get it done cheaper at a third-party repair shop.

    Hi Kurt,
    The Mac IIci is not even powering on at all. Tried again with wih a tested power cable and no luck. 
    I think it's best that take  this issue to the Older Hardware Community. Not only did I see a fair number of replacement parts for the IIci avaiable online, but there also vintage external floppy drives as well. I'm not giving up.
    Thank you for your time and interest in helping.

  • I seem to have at least two, and maybe four, iCloud accounts, across my iPhone, my iPad and my MacBook Pro. Can I combine them into one iCloud account?

    I seem to have at least two, and maybe four, iCloud accounts, across my iPhone, my iPad and my MacBook Pro. Can I combine them into one iCloud account? I have been able to log into what appears to be three of the four iCloud accounts I have. Two of them seem to be remarkably similar, and one appears to be only for my MacBook.I think I know which one my iPhone is backing up to, as I successfully restored from a back-up last week. The fourth iCloud account I can't access via password or security questions. Any advice would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    You cannot merge accounts.

  • Macbook Pro takes a long time (41 secs) from start to reach log-in - It used to be almost instantaneous, I'm running Lion OS

    My Macbook Pro takes a long time (41 secs) from start to reach log-in - It used to be almost instantaneous, I'm running Lion OS. I thought this might be because I'd used a lot of disk space but I've now reduced that - I'm only using 40 of the 320 gb available. I have no games and I've unchecked the "re-open windows" option on shutdown. The rest of the preformance (once in) remains good.

    41 seconds is actually a little faster then normal. Boot from completely off is normally around 45-50 seconds.
    Your computer never ever came on almost instantaneously from completely off. You are confusing waking up from sleep mode and booting the computer from completely off.
