  • My printer is a Samsung ML-2010R.  Still looking for a driver solution to run Mac OS X Lion through a new Macbook Pro.  Previously, I was running Mac Os X version 10.5.8 through this printer  on a 4 yr old Macbook. Any further help is most appreciated:-)

    Apple seems to be naming their operating sytems usability based on the respective turd size of the feline in question. Lions are big, very, very, very big.
    I had a system that served me well for 2 years until I mistaking bought a new machine which runs mega-turd (Lion). Foolish me, now nothing works properly, its a daily struggle to get anything working smoothly using my NEW mac mini. All my other machines work fine, even the windows machines and my Android tablet see all the network components and can talk to each other.
    My Internet service is over 3g which I share to the house using internet sharing via my brand new €800 mac mini running POS Lion, everytime the service is interrupted, Kaboom, the mini resets the DHCP server, but doesn't seem to refresh any of the components so connections drop everywhere.
    Its amateur hour at Apple folks.
    There are several posts alone relating to internet sharing, I have submitted a bug report relating to the non user controllable DHCP server (which may be at fault), but the response / solution from Apple was lacklustre and ultimately didn't work.
    See this, there are some work around's in there;

  • HT5271 Daughter's homework assignment needs adobe flash plug in.  Just got my new MacBook Pro and scare to download program if it compromises the security of laptop.  What do I do in this situation?

    Daughter's homework assignment needs adobe flash plug in.  Just got my new MacBook Pro and scare to download program if it compromises the security of laptop.  What do I do in this situation?

    OS X will automatically block versions of Flash that are known to be unsafe. As long as Flash is kept up to date, it's reasonably safe. You can minimize your exposure to Flash content by installing the "ClickToFlash" or "ClickToPlugin" Safari extension. Flash elements will then load only when clicked.

  • Just bought a new MacBook pro to replace my old PC.  I have LR 4 on disk and LR 5 upgrade on disk and need to know how to load LR on my new Macbook Pro.  Also how do I transfer photos?

    I'm not very good with computers and need help.  My LR 4 and LR 5 upgrade are on disk but my new MacBook Pro doesn't use disk.  How do I load LR on my new computer?  Also, how do I get the photos from LR on my old computer to the new computer?

    You can download Lightroom thru the link(s) below.  If you only want to install the version 5 upgrade you do not need to install 4 first - you likely just need to provide the serial number for it when you activate 5.
    Lightroom - all versions
    Windows

    Mac

    As far as transferring photos goes, that is something you might get help for in the Photoshop Lightroom forum.  But you could wait here and see if anyone knows, or you could search Google and probably find out how.

  • IMac running Panther sharing an external HD with new MacBook

    Hello,
    I would like help setting up an external hard drive to automatically backup from both a G4 iMac running Panther and a new MacBook running 10.4.9.
    What would be the easiest/most reliable method of doing this?
    Thanks in advance

    I use FW drives on most of my Networks and use Tri-Backup...
    http://www.tri-edre.com/english/index.html
    Can't say enough good about Tri-Backup.
    With Sharepoints...
    http://www.hornware.com/sharepoints/
    Which can backup any CPU to any Drive in the Network, to/from any other CPU/Drive.
    Tri-Backup isn't Universal, don't even know if it runs on IntelMacs, but regardless, you could still back up the Book from the G4. It can even be set to do the backup once the book joins the network.

  • What software do I need to run all my website work on my new Apple Macbook

    I run my Naval-History.Net site on my new Apple Mac running Windows software with Parallels. The software I use is WORD, EXCEL, PAINT, FRONTPAGE, and COFFEECUP FTP
    I have just ordered iWorks which I believe allows me to work on my WORD and EXCEL files. Please recommend low-cost software that can substitute for PAINT, FRONTPAGE and an FTP.
    I can't wait to get everything on to my Apple.
    Many thanks

    You will find iWork a brilliant package for websites.
    Learn about Keynote, in particular the graphic capabilities. Take particular note of the ability to build a layered graphic and then export it to tiff, gif, png. But also the ease with which you can add shadows, reflections, do masks, remove backgrounds (alpha), layer text/graphics ... etc.
    Export from Keynote as TIFF, then use ImageWell (free image app) to crop and easily get them to a sensible file size.
    If you particularly want to edit HTML pages, there are free HTML editors - see VersionTracker.com.
    There is always iWeb for web pages. However, given the amount of content you have on your site, do yourself a big favour and try one of the free blogs at wordpress.com. You can create not just a blog (think regular updates as you find new naval history information), but you can also create as many web pages as you want. And no ftp required. You can pay $10 to upgrade to use your own domain. You won't look back.
    If you do stay with html/ftp, you can use scp (secure copy) from the Terminal in Leopard to upload. Its a command line tool, but more secure than ftp (basic ftp sends your username/password in the clear text, creating the potential to be hacked).
    $ scp file.jpg [email protected]:/yourhtmldirectory
    That said, CyberDuck is a good free ftp program for Mac.

  • Can I run Tiger and Snow leopard on a new macbook pro 15"

    Hi
    I have a Macbook running Tiger, soon to be replaced (I hope) by a
    15" Macbook Pro Sno Leopard. Can I partition the drive on the MBP to run
    Tiger also, as I have Adobe Creative Suite 2 and can't afford to upgrade that too. And I really don't want to run to computers.
    Thanks

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Snow Leopard will run CS2 with some limitations.
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/start
    Either find a Mac older than October 26, 2007 you can use until you can bring all your software to Snow Leopard compatibility from these sites*:
    http://www.macmaps.com/usedrefurbished.html
    Or find an alternative application for the functions you need from the first link that is Snow Leopard compatible if you can use that.

  • I have just purchased my first Apple computer, a MacBook Pro, running Lion (10.7.4).  My wife bought her MacBook Pro six months ago.  I had data from my old PC transferred to my new MacBook, but, for some reason, my superuser ID comes up as my wife.

    I have just purchased a MacBook Pro.  My wife's MacBook Pro is less than a year old.  When I start up my new computer, it thinks I am my wife and gives me the option of logging on as my wife or as a guest user.  How do I correct this misidentification?  Thanks.  [email protected]

    This sounds like you may have migrated in Setup Assistant from her MBP?
    EDIT: (Or whatever you migrated from the PC had her account data)
    I also think you mean your login ID, not the Superuser, unless you've enabled root. In that case it would say "root"
    Let's try it easy first. Create a new account and make it an Admin. Name it your name or whatever. This will be your account. Next login as your wife and move ehatever Documents you want from that account into /Users/Shared.
    Now log back into your own account and drag the items from the Shared folder into your Documents folder.
    If this works and you no longer need your wife's account on the Mac you can delete it in System Preferences > Users&Groups.

  • Need to get photos and music from iphone to new macbook pro

    I gave my old macbook pro to my daughter and bought a new one. However, i need to find out how to get my music, photos, etc from my iphone onto my new computer. When I try to sync i get the message my iphone contents will be erased and replaced with computer's content. Help!

    Photos can be offloaded to any computer. If a computer does not have iTunes installed, it treats the iPhone as a camera and gives an option to save the photos.
    Anyway, photo's aren't synced are they. They are always stored on the iPhone and never a part of a backup.

    My Laptop was recently stolen

    Thanks

    PhoneView will allow you to copy your information to your MacBook.  Before you connect your phone to your MacBook be sure to launch iTunes, go to Preferences>Devices and check the box to Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from automatically syncing.  If you don't, iTunes will initiate a sync wipe your phone.  You need to copy your content off your phone/ipad and rebuild your iTunes library before syncing.
