I have a Macbook Pro, and I'm wanting to be able to plug it into my TV to watch Netflix. What cord(s) do I need to buy??

I do this sometimes and it works well.
First of all more info is required like the macbook pro model identifier number found in 3 steps by first selecting the Apple Menu in the far top left, next select About This Mac and finally click the more info button. It should open under hardware and the second line has the number. (ex.) 2,1 or 4,1. With this info a person can look up the HD or other video out port to HDMI or SVGA monitor input.
Secondly what type of T.V monitor do you have? Is it HD or an older CRT. Does it have multiple types of inputs? Some are limited.
I dont want to start a list for every version MacBookPro but older MBP's can use an HDMI to DVI adapter.
Hope this is helpful... If not get back to me.

I have a MacBook Pro and when I want to save an image it saves the whole page. What can I do?

On my MacBook Pro whenever I select an image to save or copy, it selects the whole page. Also does a similar thing on iTunes: whever I select an album cover it gives the whole listing.

I have a macbook pro and use BT homehub 3. can't work out how to connect my time capsule. can anyone help, thanks.

I have a macbook pro and use BT homehub 3. can't work out how to connect my time capsule. can anyone help? thanks

Just need to plug the TC in to the hub in bridge mode.. do not try and bridge the homehub.. it is not possible with the setup BT uses.
To bridge the TC.. plug it directly into a computer by ethernet.. no other connection to the TC or the computer.
Press and hold in reset until the front LED flashes rapidly.. about 10sec.
Release the reset.
Open the airport utility and setup the TC to bridge mode.
The actual method depends on version of the OS and airport utility you use.
This is version 5.
Sorry I cannot post the v6 as I am on a snow leopard computer now. But you go to the network tab, and choose off bridge mode for method of connection. It will be NAT and dhcp by default.
Then setup wireless.. you have a number of choices here.
Either setup with the same SSID Security and password, as the homehub uses.. or a different name, and password..
Each method works fine.. but you sometimes have issues with wireless channels.. for now leave it on auto and see what happens.. if you have issues lock down the radio channels on both devices.. use one out of the following on each, 1, 6, 11 or 13 in UK.. so say 6 on the homehub then 13 onthe TC.
Update the TC.. unplug fromt the computer and plug it into the homehub.
If you have other issues with the setup tell us what OS you run so we can post suitable screenshots.

If the purchases are all from the same account then you can share the content by authorizing each device.
If you have separate accounts then you have to be authorized to use the content purchased from another account.

i cannot found iLife app on my macbook pro and when i want to buying it i cannot and i have this massage (These apps cannot be accepted by your Apple ID.These apps were already assigned to another Apple ID, and they will be available in that Apple ID's purchases list. If you don't have access to that AppleID and want to receive future updates, you will needto purchase the applications ) what i want to do now ? please tell me

Either use the Apple ID you used when you originally purchased the applications or you will have to purchase them using your Apple ID. If you did not have the other Apple ID, then you have the applications illegally or they were improperly included with a computer you purchased from someone else.

If you are running Lion then all drivers are distributed through Software Update. You do not need to install anything, other than to install the printer in System Preferences > Print & Scan. If you already added the printer while it was connected using USB, you might want to delete it and set it up again wirelessly to avoid confusion. Or, give them two distinct names e.g. "Photosmart D110 (USB)" and "Photosmart D110 (wireless)".
All scanning functions are now performed using Preview, but you can also access the scanner through the same Print & Scan preference pane, or with Image Capture.
This HP document may help explain how driver software is distributed now:

Sometimes you have to reset the SMC two or three times for it to work, don't know why. I've seen that error message before and 100% of the time it was fixed with an SMC reset. I suppose it's possible that your keyboard or mouse IS drawing too much power, do you have access to another you could try?

either something got damaged when you installed the hard drive or you need to perform a pram reset (other possibilites could have occured, these are the ones I think)

I have a macbook pro and a photosmart D110 printer. I was told that if I load the software for the printer onto my mac that it will no longer print wierlessly. Is that true and how can I scan wirelessly without loading the software? Also, can I just connect my mac to the printer with a cable and scan or do I need that software loaded onto the mac?
