Recently while using iMovie for about 20-30 min. My screen will go blue then basically restart(shut down all apps running). The computer works fine if I'm not using iMovie. What should I do to resolve this problem?
Firstly, have you applied the EFI Firmware Update 1.5.1? Secondly, there is a known problem with the video in your model. See MacBook Pro: Distorted video or no video issues.

I have a MacBook Pro, 15-inch, Mid 2009. I would love to upgrade to a Solid State Drive. What is the best possible upgrade I can buy. I need the specs and even brand name. Thank you to anyone who can help.
A 15" mid-2009 MBP RAM specifications are: 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM.
As has been pointed out, OWC is an excellent source for Mac compatible RAM. Crucial is another first rate source for Mac RAM. RAM from either vendor will work just as well as any purchased from Apple with the bonus of being less expensive and having a lifetime guarantee.

Hello hbothner,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you'd like to change the colors on your Mac's display, then you can calibrate your display by following the steps in the article below.

I have a Macbook pro 13.3 w/ i5 that has no hdmi port. I want to be able to connect the Mac to my TV set to watch Video, Photos and files from Mac to TV.
Is the Thunderbolt port similar to a display port or mini display port? Can I use thunderbolt port to connect thru a mini displayport to HDMI cable or converter?
Been trying to locate a USB to HDMI cable or converter (at a reasonable price) but all I found is a displayport or mini displayport to HDMI cable/converter.
What other options are available ?
Thanks a lot for your assistance.Thunderbolt uses a Mini DisplayPort adapter to send video and audio to HDMI. Here's some on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_c_2_8?url=search-alias%3Dcomputers&field-ke ywords=mini+displayport+to+hdmi&sprefix=mini+dis%2Caps%2C249#/ref=nb_sb_noss?ur l =search-alias%3Dcomputers&field-keywords=mini+displayport+to+hdmi+with+audio&rh = n%3A172282%2Cn%3A!493964%2Cn%3A541966%2Ck%3Amini+displayport+to+hdmi+with+audio

Hi. I have a MacBook Pro with OS10.6.8 and cannot get internet pages to load on my WiFi network at home. My iMac, iPhone and iPad all work on this network. It is connected to the net as dropbox registers a connection and so does skype. I can connect to the WiFi in work and on other networks when travelling. However, some other networks are now starting to fail. Can anyone suggets how I can fix it, as the MBP appears to be fine, its updated with all the latest versions of software and the WiFi network is also fine....just not with my MBP??

I have a macbook pro 17". I love the big screen, but how can I change the display? The content takes about half of the screen and the fonts are very small. I am sure it is an easy fix, so please clue me in. Thanks

I am trying to find an app or software to burn iMovie 11 slideshow to a dvd. I have a MacBook Pro with Mavericks. There are a lot of DVD Creator apps at the App store. Looking for a recommendation of what to use and tips. Thank you.
I've been using "Burn" for years and it has been the only DVD burning software I have ever used for the mac. I have never needed to look at other apps. Unless you want something that has more bells and whistles such as Roxio's "Toast" : http://www.roxio.com/enu/products/toast/pro/overview.html
There are thousands of quality free apps out there for the mac that are not part of the App Store. All you have to do is read reviews online, do a little search, the Apple forums are full of recommendations from experienced users that have been here for years... -
Where can i download the driver for my network card? i have a macbook pro mid 2012, and are using windows 7 ultimate
uhm hey guys,
idk where else to get help so ima try here,
i got windows 8 installed with bootcamp on my macbook pro late 2010 (5, 5) and theres no sound coming out of it, so i installed an nvidia audio driver (idk, it could be the incorrect one) but i have nvidia GeForce 320 on my macbook.
do you know what i should install ?
but when i go onto my osx the sound is fine, so i figured im missing something on windows 8
Orrrr could i just go out and get parallels and hope it doesn't get the same problems? -
I have a macbook pro with 10.6.8 on it but I need to do a clean re install and my CD is 10.4.6. Can I use the CD and then are my OS updates to 10.6.8 free?
Also can I use iMac OS install disks on a MacBookPro?You will have to buy Snow Leopard:
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order. You also should find it at your local Apple retailers.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements. -
I have a macbook pro, and i want to transfer my hard drive from my macbook (500g), but the display drivers and such are different. How do i do this and is it possible?
The Macbook Pro has Mac OS X 10.4.11 (70g hard drive)
The Macbook has Mac OS X 10.6.8 (500g hard drive)The MacBook's hard drive lacks the necessary hardware drivers to boot the MacBook Pro even though it has a much newer OS on it; that's why simply moving it into the Pro doesn't work. Presumably you have a very old MB Pro, because only the very first MB Pro model (produced January to May 2006) was ever offered with an 80GB hard drive. Are you sure you want to move your big drive into such an old machine? The MacBook must be newer, because the first MacBook was introduced just as the first Pro model was discontinued.

Hi i have a macbook pro 13 inch mid 2012 i noticed that the speakers are not that loud unlike before
hi i have a macbook pro 13 inch mid 2012 i noticed that the speakers are not that loud unlike before,
now when i play music or videos, the sound is not the same unlike before, then my brother noticed it too because he has a macbook pro 13 inch late 2011 as well, im just wondering whats the problem? the speakers on my bro's laptop is still loud, mine is becoming not that loud much unlike before, tnx!Check your settings in System Preferences>Sound. If that does not help, perform a PRAM reset.

If that does not solve the issue, then a trip to an Apple store is in order.

i have a macbook pro can can log into a server, but my new iMac with lion can't even see the server--both are over wifi- how do i get the new iMac to see the server?
Without knowing what you have tried please open System Preferences - Sharing - File Sharing and select File Sharing. If you still have trouble you can call AppleCare in the morning when they re-open. You have 90 days of telephone support if you haven't already bought AppleCare.

I have a macbook pro with OSX Mavericks 10.9.5 and some keys randomly are not working. Specifically, the enter/return button, the "p", "0", ";", and all the function keys. What's really weird is that happens randomly. I've never spilled anything on it, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to fix this. Can anyone help? of course this happened after my warranty expired.
**update**
I don't know if this will help someone but I am posting this for that purpose. In the past when I first had this problem, I'd read a post somewhere (sorry, long ago, don't have the link) where an individual was having the same problem and they stated that when the MBP got heated, that's when the keys would stop working, and they went into the MBP and jiggle some stuff around (a specific wire, I'm not electronically inclined so I know NOT of what they spake!). Well I didn't want to do that but it always stuck in the back of my mind. I had given up, really, and was planning to take my MBP to the apple store. But by chance one night I left my MBP on the floor where it's cool, and when I turned it on, the problem went - poof! It seems there was some validity to the post that spoke about heat, because my problems started when I would stream foreign dramas on my MBP for hours at night, and I would hear the fan going off all the time, and in the mornings, my "p", "enter", "0", ";", and all the function keys would stop working.
So, maybe try keeping the MBP in a cool place when it's off. Since I've started doing this overnight every night (keeping it on the cool floor, out of reach of any big feet), I have not had a single problem with my keyboard.
Hopefully this might help someone. -
