Please help! I have a Apple MacBook Pro "Core i7" 2.8 13" Late 2011. i want to upgrade its RAM from 4GB to 16GB. But OWC sells two kinds of RAM, the DDR3 and the DDR3L.What is the different and which one would work better for my mac. Thanks!!!
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,
Clinton

I have an Apple MacBook Pro with 2 USB ports and a MiniDisplay Port. I also have an HDTV with a HDMI port. How can I use the TV as a display without any tethering wires between my computer and the TV? I have a MiniDisplay Port to VGA adapter, but there are two issues with it: The new display doesn't have a VGA port, and even if it did, I wouldn't want to have my mac constantly attached to the display by a cable. I was looking for a way to use the TV as a display without any wires. Is there some type of bluetooth setup I could use? Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
As I wrote above, I think you should look into the Apple TV yourself. The best place to find information about what it can and can't do and to ask your own specific questions is probably in the Apple TV forum, here:

I have an Apple MacBook Pro 1,1 Mac OS X 10.6.8. I have tried to load Native Instruments Guitar Rig 4LE.
It would not load and said the following. System extension cannot be used.
The system extension "/system/library/Extensions/AppleUSBthernetHost.text" was installed improperly and cannot be used.
Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product vendor for an update.
I do not have a copy of the OS X 10.6.8 software. It is second hand so I have no product vendor to contact.
What can I do?You recently updated iTunes to v.11.4? This message has popped up on many a Mac screen when this version was first made available, because this kext was obviously faulty.
You should try to download iTunes 11.4 again from Apple's website: the new version bears the same name, but this kernel extension has been updated, and the issues it was causing are now a thing of the past.
Should solve your problem, too... -

Apple MacBook Pro "Core 2 Duo" 2.5 15 A1260 Purchase
Hi!
I found a second Hand Apple MacBook Pro "Core 2 Duo" 2.5 15" A1260
and I am thinking about to buy it.
The owner has changed the motherboard and the superdrive,
he says that it was under warranty.
At this point I want to ask you
Do you know any specific problems with this series of macbook pro?
Is there any check you Would recommend to do to the Macbook before the purchase?
thanksI don't think you can on that model without the install disk(s). You can try (you may have yo use OPTION D to start it)
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1509
Install disks can be procured from Apple Customer support. Give them a call and have the serial number of your MBP ready. Technically you should purchase your own copy of Mt Lion since the license follows the original owner, not the MBP. You may incur difficulties in the future if you have to reinstall Mt. Lion.
I think that you best option is a genius bar appointment and have them check out the MBP.
Ciao. -
I have an older MacBook Pro Core Duo, I don't know if it is uprgradeable to OS X Mountain lion is it possible to tell via the S/n??? I'm already at Snow Leo. 10.6.8. I'd like to be able to completely bypass OS X Lion. Any one have any input that might shed light on my situation? Thanks in advance for your input.
Your MacBook can not be upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion. Snow Leopard is the highest possible for that model.

i have a macbook pro 13" early 2011 version and what to install windows 7 on it via bootcamp but not sure that whether to install x64 or x86 version? which one will work better
There is no need for anyone to use 32-bit version anymore.
Retail comes with both. Or you can save on just buying 64-bit System Builder disc.
Better support for today's hardware with larger video graphic memory and systems.
Better memory management. -

I have a MacBook Pro. When surfing the web it will eventually slow to a crawl. When this occurs, there will be a small multi-colored wheel spinning until my latest command is handled. What is causing this and is there a way that I can modify or prevent this from happening? Is there a setting that will prevent this?
When you next have the problem, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.

(not afflacx -- seeing avatar)
The game minimum specifications are just a start when considering a computer that can run games, then you add more for what the computer's OS needs to run, plus any other things you may hope it could do during the time you were gaming; such as check email, be online with some other application, edit a movie, and other tasks away from gaming.
The MacBook Pro series has several superior characteristics that my semi-comatose iBook G4 and dizzy first-edition MacBook coreduo 1.83GHz could only dream about.
When you look into the online store, the sales page for each has add-ons that are possible and some are built-to-order upgrades. Since all the MB/Pros have Retina displays, except the basic model which has the only internal optical drive offered. Unless you also look into the Apple Special Deals refurbished online store to check for current inventory, that's about it. If you get a model where you can add the upgrade RAM yourself, that is one thing; but more of them now are installed before you get it and have few user-upgrade paths in hardware. Consider this hardware can run Windows, unix, OS X, etc. More RAM and more storage (SSD, Fusion, HDD) capacity is good.
http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals/mac
http://store.apple.com/us/buy-mac/macbook-pro
Some great stuff. But watch for the specificiations because the 'minimum for a game' is not the minimum necessary for a great experience. And the options for a fast SSD or Apple Fusion drive should be looked into, those kinds of options are not added to an existing offer in the refurbished store sales page. However they do have a good complementary support/service plan which is upgradable to the full AppleCare optional plan just as regular store models are.
Not sure if your question was answered by me.
But that green checkmark looks funny. I bet
that duck had something to do with it...!
Good luck & happy computing! -
