You can create an install disc but you would have to download Mountain Lion to do so..

And make sure your Mac can upgrade to Mountain Lion.

i need to buy a new macbook pro/i am from OR, but i am in PA now/when i asked about that i found the tax will be around 100$/there is some one said to me that if i have the ID state of OR i would be able to buy it by the samr price/is it true ?
Goods delivered to you for personal or business use (not for resale) in Pennsylvania are subject to Pennsylvania state sales tax.
If you are exempt from Pennsylvania state sales tax, or are a Not-for-profit corporation and have a DBA certificate in Pennsylvania, you may be able to buy tax-free. I doubt this.
If you have the goods delivered to your address in Oregon, and there is no state sales tax in Oregon, you would not have to pay state sales tax.
Since Apple does business in all 50 states, they are also obligated to charge you sales tax (for the state where the goods are delivered) when you buy from the Apple Online store. -

thank you.A Mid 2010 MacBook Pro supports 16 GB of memory without any problem. Macs are "special" about memory because some brands work without any problem and others don't work. That's why I recommend you to buy the memory from OWC or Crucial in order to make sure that you get compatible memory > http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3

I am shooting aerial video with a GoPro H3+ at 1080p 30fps and would like to edit videos and give them to my clients to use in as much media as possible for their advertising and marketing needs. I would like to give it to them at the highest quality allowed. What form should I save it in 'Publish and Share'? I have Premier Elements 12.
KM
Can we assume that your 1080p30 is an AVCHD.mp4 file or other?
You manually or the project automatically should set the project preset to
NTSC
DSLR
1080p
DSLR 1080p30 @29.97
(If your frame rate is really 30 instead of 29.97, then go with DSLR 1080p30 instead of DLSR 1080p30 @29.97)
See the following link for setting the project preset manually
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/04/pe11-accuracy-of-automatic-project.html
For your export
Publish+Share
Computer
AVCHD
with Presets = MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080p30
Please let us know if you have further questions on this or need clarification on anything written.
Thank you.

I just upgraded my macbook pro to mountain lion. Now I want to install windows, but during installation using bootcamp, it says windows can't install on FAT partition. I couldn't change it to NTFS. Also how can I partition my hard disk after windows installation. Coz before windows installation, if I partition hard disk, it won't allow me to install windows saying startup disk can't be partitioned.......help would be appreciated.

Now, I wish to upgrade from Mountain Lion 10.8.5 to latest version of OS X Yosemite, but I am in doubt and worry if after upgraded to Yosemite, can I still using my Windows XP where I installed now in Mountain Lion 10.8.5 BootCamp?
Yosemite does not allow a new installation of XP, but an existing XP installation is self-contained and will continue to work. Does your XP installation use a FAT partition? You may be better off using NTFS and then upgrading to Yosemite.
Will the Yosemite upgrade process delete my Windows XP partition or crash my current BootCamp? Can I still have an option to load OS X or Windows XP (press 'alt/option' key during boot up) after upgraded to Yosemite?
If you have made any re-sizing attempts to WXP partition Yosemite will cause problems, otherwise the Yosemite upgrade leaves XP untouched.
Are there any specific reasons to upgrade to Yosemite? -
Sometimes the screen on my new Mac Book Pro slowly pulses from very light to a darker screen than I like. This is an intermittent problem and happens whether the computer is plugged in or on battery. Hope someone can help. Thanks. Ellen 206
That is the automatic ambient light sensor doing it's thing.
Depending on what machine you have, try turning the screen brightness all the way up. It will buttons on the top row, usually the F-1 for dimmer, F-2 for brighter
Also you can go to sytem preferences>display and un check the automatically adjust brightness for ambient light.
Hope this helps -
Further to this, the on screen keyboard now opens in the top half of the screen instead of the lower, usually obscuring the text entry field, or causing the users hands to obstruct, not sure if it's the same issue but some reviews for Diigo ( formerly iChromy ) suggest it has known issues and one user reports the same problem in App Store (September 2012 reviews for app) and that it was like that for weeks...., please advise.
For the keyboard press and hold the 'keyboard' key at the bottom right of the keyboard and after a second or two you should get a popup - slide your finger up to the 'Dock' option on that popup and then remove your finger from the screen and the keyboard should move back to the bottom of the screen.
For the App Store, have you tried closing it via the multitasking bar and seeing if it works when you re-open it ? Double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag the App Store app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
If that doesn't fix it then you could try a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. -

Power Adapter/ cord wattage
“Power adapters for Intel-based Apple notebooks are available in 45W, 60W, and 85W varieties. Although you should always use the proper wattage adapter for your Apple notebook, you can use an adapter of a higher wattage without issue.”

I upgraded my MacBook Pro to 10.6.8 today and now it hard crashes the Operating System when I connect my iHome USB keyboard. I get a window that states I must press the power button until the computer shuts down and then restart. On reboot sends Panic Report to Apple with lots of USB error type stuff in it. WORKED FINE UNTIL I UPGRADED TO 10.6.8 TODAY.

I have an older Airport Extreme (disc shaped) that we use with my wife's PowerBook (OS 10.5.8) and my MacBook Pro (OS 10.9.4). We currently only have Airport Utility on her Mac, but I want to upgrade the utility so I can use it on mine. Which version of the utility will work on my MacBook, and still control the older Airport Extreme?
if I update the Airport to the latest version, and "control" it with my MacBook Pro, will the older G4 still be able to use the signal from the new Airport?
Yes. Your G4 shouldn't have any difficulty connecting to a Wi-Fi network provided by the latest 802.11ac AirPorts as they support the earlier radio modes that the G4 uses.
