... do I need to buy a new MAC office?
A better solution is to try a number of better, free alternatives. Consider
LibreOffice (donation-supported)
NeoOffice (free)
OpenOffice (free)
I use Apple's Pages ($19.99) as well as OpenOffice and have been completely Microsoft - free for over a year now. Life is better without Microsoft.

Is this SSD compatible with my macbook pro
Hello Freinds,
I am planning to upgrade my macbook's hard-disk with SSD.
my Macbook pro model: MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2011)
SSD I am planning to buy :: http://www.flipkart.com/samsung-840-series-250-gb-ssd-internal-hard-drive-mz-7td 250bw/p/itmdhwymgyx2htcn?pid=IHDDHWYAFRSNG8GB&ref=9d81c0fa-f452-4314-a68d-3e061a a99184&srno=t_1&otracker=from-search&query=ssd
Can anyone confirm me that this ssd will be compatible with my macbook.i can't confirm or deny but im leaning towards the no side. Formating is a big issue. it sayd that its is compatible for Win7 and 8 but windows is formated for NTFS and macs can only read on NTFS. Do some more research but i hope i pointed your research.

Roller Coaster Tycoon 3; Is this item compatible with my MacBook Pro?
Hello,
I have a MacBook pro that uses OS X 10.7.3 (newest version of Lion) with 4 GBs of Ram. I am purchasing Atari's RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Platinum for Mac from here: http://www.amazon.com/RollerCoaster-Tycoon-3-Platinum-Mac/dp/B0048XAVC2. Before I buy it, I need to know if it will work with my MacBook Pro. I also use a lot of memory, so I was wondering if I should also purchase more 2 more GBs of Ram.
I would appreciate it if someone were to help me with this situation. Thanks.

Not the same timings - the one you want is at CL 9 - the one being sold by OWC is at CL 11 which is 2 wait states slower. The same goes with Crucial and Corsair - they're all at CL 11
The ones you want might work - you willing to take a chance?
Why not spend the extra $$ and get the one that's Apple Certified and not have any issues when you install them.
Here's a set of Kingston for your Macbook if you want to save some money.
In any event, it's all up to you.
Good luck with that - hope it goes smoothly for you. -

I could not decipher which sata is compatible with my macbook, it is 1, 2 or 3, or what should I buy.Your machine has a SATA III connection, meaning you can get a negotiated link speed of up to 6.0Gbps.
You may want to take a look at my user tip -> Upgrading Your MacBook Pro with a Solid State Drive.
There are dozens of SSDs that would work in your MacBook Pro. You first need to decide what size you want (or need): they're available from 128GB - 1Terabyte.
Personally, I recommend either the Crucial M550 series or the Samsung EVO series. You can get either from a wealth of different sources. I have 4 Crucials now -> 2 mSATA and two standard 2.5" drives. There were some problems with Macs and the EVO series when they were first introduced but they work just fine with Macs now.
Google both drives and find the best prices for the storage that you need. You can't go wrong with either.
Good luck,
Clinton

I have a macbook pro, purchased late 2006... I can scroll with 2 fingers so I'm wondering if it will support the multi touch gestures before I purchase OS X Lion?
Thanks!Probably Not. Im sorry.
The new macs have a different kind of trackpad that is more sensitive to touch. And Apple doesn't make new stuff for old macs because most people have a new mac and because the old hardware is not fast enough to run it. Im sorry.
Hope this helps. -

Cable to migrate from Macbook (late 2007) to Mac Mini 2012?
What cable should I use to migrate files from Macbook (late 2007) to Mac Mini 2012. The ethernet migration took 30 hours. The Macbook messaged success but the Mini did not show that any files were transfered.
Where did you look for the migrated files? Look in the /Users/ folder and see if there isn't a new user account. If so, then log into that account where you should find what you migrated.
The only way to do a migration any faster and more reliably is if both computers have Firewire ports. If they do then you can use Target Disk Mode to migrate. -
How to enable SATA NCQ/AHCI in MacBook (Late 2007)
I am planning to upgrade the HDD to a bigger SATA-2 model.
I would like to ask does *MacBook (late 2007)* with *Mac OS X 10.5.2* natively support NCQ / AHCI ?
Do I have to enter the BIOS to *enable the AHCI* function of the HDD?deltatux wrote:

Wrong, EFI is NOT BIOS. They are two separate things. They do the same job, but EFI does it more efficiently due to the fact that it is a lot newer. You do not require BIOS to run EFI, or the other way around.
This sounds more like a semantic discussion rather than the original poster's query whether or not something needed to be done in order to access a larger drive. Perhaps he used the term "BIOS", but we all know there have been means of updating the firmware on MacBooks, even if it isn't a traditional BIOS reflash.

A magnet fell on my macbook "late 2007 series black" and it stopped working. When i start my macbook up it sits on the white screen. i tried inserting the snow leopard disk to do a clean install but the disk ejects and all i see is the pointer. i even bought a new hard drive to do the clean install but the same thing happens. Please Help
Your problem is not Boot Camp, in fact, is your optical drive. Win XP requires indeed sp2, but also the internal drive, does not work from external optical drive.
For other possible tricks, please use the appropriate Boot Camp forum, not here. Mac OS X may be installed from both external and internal optical drive and/or internal/external partition of a disk, any disk. Windows is not so generous. -
I just upgraded from my 2008 MacBook to a new Macbook Pro. How do I get my time capsule to work on my new MacBook? I did data migration, but the time capsule did not pick it up. Any ideas?
If you migrated all the info from time machine to your new MBP. The TM will usually ask to connect to the old backups.. sorry I am not sure is this what you want to do.. Personally I think you start a fresh backup.
BTW Time Capsule does not do anything.. it is a dumb hard disk in a box.. it is TM that does everything.
Look at B5 and B6 here about connecting to your backup.

MacBook (late 2007) 2.2 Ghz mini DVI to DVI Problem
Hi,
I still got my second MacBook 2.2 Ghz and still have the same problem like before. Always when I connect my 19" TFT Display with the mini DVI to DVI Adapter something disturbs my WLAN Connection, so that i can't load any Webpage in Safari anymore.
Does anybody have some experiences with the MacBook (late 2007) and the mini DVI to DVI Adapter?Hello,
I do have same problem, it quite annoying, could you please let me know if you find the solution.
Thank you very much. Is Hardware problem, I'm wondering if it needs to be reported to apple.
Thank you. -
My MacBook (late 2007, OS 10.6.8) seems to be running more slowly lately. Its especially noticeable when it's runs Safari (currently v5.1. but the macbook and Safari ran slow even before latest software update. I've freed more disk space by deleting unneeded large files. Any other suggestions?
Download Onyx (Google will find it) and run through its all the options of its first three procedures: Verify, Maintenance and Cleaning. Take note of any error messages and reboot when finished.
Let us know if things improve or not.

Negative reviews are common place here as it is a trouble shooting forum. If you want to read the advantages, improvements and new features then go to the Apple site. If you are running Word 2004, Early Adobe suite, etc which are PPC programs, then don't update. Go to Apple logo in upper left menu bar, open About this mac > More Info > Software >Applications and sort by 'Kind' and look what PPC programs you have installed. If you are not prepared to upgrade these programs, then do not update to Lion.
There are plenty of threads to read up on about this here. But remember that 99.9% of comments will be negative, even though the forums represent only a tiny fraction of the Millions of Lion Downloads purchased and installed with no issues at all. So basically it's your call.
Good Luck
