Hello Apple Mac,
Last christmas eve I was still undecided to buy a Macbook Pro because of the support and raises many questions on my side. But then through research and consultation from Mac users I found it work well for me while preserving my windows application on my other laptop pc running windows or on the Mac if ever. I am also considering the Sony Viao S-series because its windows and I wont have any switch to be made. So I was still undecided till the christmas eve has arrive and I was in the mall visiting an Apple retail store which I been visiting many times since I owned an iPod Classic and iPhone asking those people in there about MacBook Pro which I enjoyed browsing on it.
After a while I left the Apple Store and go to look for the Sony Viao Series because the specs is quite impressive just as the MacBook Pro. However the S-series was unavailable and will take 3-5 days to be available.
Honestly, the Apple Store nearby was like a magnetic for me to go back there and purchased a MacBook Pro instead of Sony Viao S-series. Maybe its because of its branded name, the integration of hardware and software works well fast and responsive. I am not thinking the high price but I felt it is worth. Maybe on other hand I was sympathy buyer after learning steve's passing.
I finaly bought a Macbook pro that day and I felt something so excited to use it on a coffee shop or at home.
You know for every laptop, notebook and netbook used in the public place like office or in the mall. People will turn around whenever they see person using an Apple brand. I felt the same way that the Macbook Pro I am using is far more supreme that those branded names who play are players and copycats as well.
I love my new Macbook Pro! Insanely Great! Happy New year to all Mac users!AnaMusic wrote:

I have a new MacBook Pro and need to know what I need to do to open Microsoft Office files?
Use a product such as OpenOffice, LibreOffice, Google Docs, iWork, or Microsoft Office 2008 or newer. In the case of Word documents, you can also use TextEdit.

How do you like the new macbook pro?
I got a new macbook pro on monday this week. I just found a few of questions, but it was okay. Before I've already changed computers for many times or just went to apple store to ask what problem this computer had. Now I feel a little bit tired to go again. I have always asked myself. Do I really need to buy Apple or buy another brand PC. So, I want to know what you guys think?
I picked mine up on the day they were released. The only issue I have had is two freezes and one strange sound during one of the freezes. But, I have had no issues in the past two weeks so I'm very happy. I will admit that this is the first glossy display I have owned in the fourteen years I've had a computer and it takes some getting used to.
Rather than going into the Apple Store to ask a question, perhaps posting a specific question here may help. I've read about problems people are having with the updated MB and MBP but Apple seems to be trying to fix these issues quickly. -
Which 200 gb 7200 rpm drive is in your new MacBook Pro?
I'm planning on getting the new MacBook Pro 2.4 ghz model. I will upgrade to a 7200 rpm drive. I'm trying to find out which brand of hard drive will be installed, because Apple is unable to tell me which brand they will install. Although it's only about $92 to upgrade the drive, however, I would prefer to know if they are installing a 200 gb Hitachi Travelstar (my preference), Seagate, or other brand. If you got a 7200 drive, which one do you have?
Well, my issue has been resolved. It turns out that the Logitech keyboard (I am using the mouse) that I gave to my son (he had the same set I do but his keyboard died) to use is picking up the signal from the little receiver up here next to my laptop! I called Apple 3 times about this issue and when I finally figured out that what my son typed and did on his Dell running Linux downstairs, was coming through to my computer! Wow! How weird is that? It was my old keyboard and it was still communicating with the receiver up here. So it was nothing to do with anything major. No hard drive issues. I am a happy girl again! Judy

How do you format your hole Macbook Pro to brand new?
Hi,
I'm selling my Macbook Pro to someone. And they want the hole thing formated to new.
How does one do it? I can't find anything on google which I found odd. I only know how to with Windows.
Thanks in advance.Boot to your recovery media or partition by holding Option on startup and selecting it, then when you come to the install screen, select Disk Utility fromt he Applications menu on the top bar and then Erase the disk you want wiped (Usually Macintosh HD). Then exit disk utility, and install!

Love the new macbook pro but still no BluRay?
I love the look of the new series of macbook pro's all the additional features yet still no BluRay which is very disappointing, with that feature added this would of been the ultimate series, very disappointed Apple
{quote}Steve Jobs said himself that we will never see Blu-Ray on Macs.{quote}
Source of quote or link please...
<hr/>
I'm personally more disappointed the optical drive is still present. I wish Apple had removed it and made better use of the space giving the users more choices with external drives. Then all Apple would need to do is update DVD player to play Blu-rays. Or Apple could sell the Blu-ray player on the App Store. Apple is making the same mistake Sony made with the PSP and UMD. People that already have made an investment in Blu-ray movies don't want to repurchase them again! -
I purchased a new MacBook Pro and when transferring files iphoto did not transfer. I have a question mark in the place of the icon. My pictures are in library but can't properly access iphoto. Thank you
Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac. You should be able to set a password for it. Save it. Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer, I suppose, back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity. As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
This handy article from Apple explains how
How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine and go for it. You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups of your stuff. -
I am not familiar with networking in the least. I feel like, being as it is 2015, this is not an unreasonable request. Basically, I do not make much use of my desktop iMac anymore, other than as a backup computer and to sync my phones. My primary computer is my MacBook Pro. I'd like to make my MacBook my primary computer for downloading music, saving and editing photos and images, and syncing my phones, but i'd like to do so without clogging the hard drive on the MacBook.
Basically, what I am hoping to do is network my iMac, and MacBook Pro through the 2TB AirPort, and sync my phone through the MacBook without losing all data (ideally, I'd like to be able to sync through either computer at will).
Additionally, something like 100GB of images are stored on the iMac, and I specifically purchased the MacBook with the upgrades to do image editing on, but again, I don't know how to transfer the data to the AirPort, and I don't want to slow down the MacBook by storing all of the data on the laptop.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you very much.

Well i was just wondering.. since i do have a older version of the Macbook Pro.. and the fact that the power cord has been damaged
You can always get a price on what an Apple affiliate would give you for your old MacBook Pro by going to http://www.apple.com/recycling/gift-card/faq.html and reading the instruction for the reuse program. Or you can sell your old one on eBay (that's what I did - you'll get more for it). Apple doesn't do a simple trade-in.
Your cheapest route is just to buy a new adapter. If you don't know which adapter to get, call Apple and they can tell you, or visit your local Apple Store. They're about $80.
Good luck,

How can I transfer my old laptop hard drive info onto a partition on my new macbook pro
is this possible? i want to transfer my windows OS with all my files etc onto a partition on my new macbook pro, but i dont know if i can do it or how to go about it.
any help would be really appreciated.
could it be as simple as using the macbook as a hard drive plugged into my laptop via USB and dragging and dropping the C:/ drive into the available space?If you want to run Windows then you need to install a new Windows copy.
I'd assume your copy is OEM and tied to the laptop unless you bought retail copy and won't use the laptop again (or sell it with Windows OS to someone else). -
I have a Power Mac G4 (2004) and want to transfer all my files to a new MacBook Pro 15.4". Can this be done thru firewire cable or do I have to transfer to an external Firewire 800 hard drive first?
Do it with a Firewire cable (buy a 800/400 adapter if you need it) - the USB transfer takes a much longer time.
Start up your old PowerMac G4 holding down the "T" key, for target disk mode.
On your new MacBook Pro open "Migration Assistant" in your utilities folder.
Connect the 2 computers by firewire cable and follow the prompts in Migration Assistant. -
I have recently purchased a new macbook pro, I had a macbook 13" notebook from 2008 and I trasnferred all of my files using the migration assistant. It said the transfer was completed and everything looked fine. but when I try to open my CS4 photoshop, illustrator, indesign or my microsoft for mac programs they crash. did the files not transfer correctly? do I have to reinstall them? do I need to wipe my mac and start again to clean out all of the transferred files?
If you still have your old MacBook, You can put the software installers in and image the discs using isk Utility and then copy them to your new MacBook Pro via a flash drive and install them from the disc images.
Another option is that you can connect it to your new mac in target Disk mode. Then you can use the DVD drive that is in the MacBook to install the software. To do this you would need a firewire cable plugged into your old MacBook and connect that to a Firewire to Thunderbolt adaptor that is connected to your new MacBook Pro.

Well, if your MacBook Pro is new, it already has Mavericks installed and there is nothing to update.
Go to the Menu Bar, and click the Apple logo. Then click "About This Mac." Does it show OS X 10.9 or 10.9.1?
If so you are already running Mavericks.
