I just got a MBP Retina. At it's highest resolution, everything is tiny. The olny way to get things to a readable size is to lower the rez, but that defeats the purpose of having it. Am I missing something?

It doesn't defeat the purpose to lower the resolution. When you choose the size you can read, the extra pixels are used to make the text and graphics more detailed, closer to the high print resolution humans have been accustomed to reading on paper for hundreds of years. That is the difference compared to the coarse screen resolution of a conventional (non-Retina) screen.

Why do I get kicked off of Facebook when I look at photos?but that's the only thing I get kicked off of everything else seems to be ok?

My Facebook app works as long as I don't try to view other people's walls or photos but as soon as their photos start to load it kicks me off back to my home page so I have to get back on.

Is wireless the only way to get things onto iPad?

If I lose power, I want to be able to watch movies on iPadIII. I have movies stored on my MBP15 and my rMBP13 and also on a backup disk but the iPad doesn't have a USB. How can I transfer if internet is down? I want this so my mom (who is 85) can watch movies if we lose power. I will buy anything necessary so I hope you can help me. Thank you. :-)

You can sync the movies to the iPad using the cable. You don't need WiFi in order to do that.

I recently added my old mac hard drive to a new macbook with an SSD as my main OSX drive. I am having trouble with permissions in viewing my old hard drive. What is the best way to get complete access to my old hd installed in my new Macbook?

I recently added my old mac hard drive to a new macbook with an SSD as my main OSX drive. I am having trouble with permissions in viewing my old hard drive, when I save a permission when I reboot the full access is changed again . What is the best way to get complete access to my old hd installed in my new Macbook?

Open the Get Info window for the old drive. Click the Lock icon on the bottom of that window and type in your password. In the permissions area click the Plus sign ( + ) and Add your Username to it and set it to Read & Write. Close that window. you should now have full access to all the files.

I have installed mackeeper on my iMac and ia show 1945 issues, is subscibing to mackeeper the only way to get rid of these issues

I have installed Mackeeper on my iMac an it shows 1945 issues, and they have used 700+ GB of hard drive space, is subscribing to Mackeeper the only way to get rid of these issues?

Those are not real issues. I tested the MacKeeper trial on a freshly-installed OS X 10.8.2 system, with absolutely nothing added to it, and it identified almost as many "junk files." They're not really junk, you're being scammed to convince you to pay the money to buy the program so you can "fix" the "problem." There have been many reports that allowing MacKeeper to "clean up" your system can actually destroy it, requiring reinstallation.
MacKeeper is to be avoided at all cost. For more information, see Beware MacKeeper. Remove it according to the instructions here:

Just got my MBP from Fedex!

I just got my Mbp from Fedex dubbed 'Dualie'. I am happy to report I do not have the whine! I am currently calibrating the battery and I will report if I have any issues within the next few hrs to days.

I found this site with the recorded whining sound. I had found a better site but can't find it now. I'm expecting my MBP Wednesday. This is going to be my first Mac and I'm really looking forward to it. I'll be posting here as soon as I receive my in.

HT1766 I just got a 5s and had taken some pictures. Then I plugged it into my PC and set it up using my previous backup from my iPhone 4. Now the pictures I had taken are gone, is there any way to get them back?!

Sorry no as you wipe the current data when you restore from your backup.

I my ipod isn't letting me swipe in on the lock screen, and for now, i've given up on that, and i just got a new laptop. So what i'd like to do is not worry about getting in my ipod, but to plug it in my computer and get my music off of it.

The message is referring to iTunes on your computer, not the iPad : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
The built-in apps on the iPad can only be updated via iOS updates, so if your iPad mini is on iOS 6.0.2 then its up-to-date

As deggie said, you are the victim of Activation Lock. Activation Lock is described here:

Either you need to contact the previous owner to release the phone from Find My iPhone, or if you cannot contact the previous owner, it is likely you received a stolen iPhone and it will be useless to you.

I just got an ipad and took video of my daughter playing volleyball. Now I can't download it onto my computer. I have a Dell. Please help!

the DCIM folder is just a folder called DCIM . Just like a camera would create, so does the iPad. Both your videos and your photos are located inside that folder.
In Windows Explorer: Computer\iPad's Name\Internal Storage\DCIM
Instead of Rick's iPhone it will have your iPad's name. whatever it may be.

Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
