Is the Black Mac book any hotter that the white one?
Hi
I have been looking at the black Macbook and the White macbook.
My question is
Is the Black Mac book any hotter that the white one?
Cheers

My guess is, it would be if you leave it sitting in the sun just because dark colors tend to absorb more radiant heat. But that does not say the internal heat would be affected as long as it isn't exposed to significant external heat. However, given the variety of reported heat conditions of the computers, I suspect it is as much a matter of how well the machine is taken care of as what color it is. There is this article on the heat of MacBooks:

and this article to make sure the vent is not blocked:

i installed the window 7 ultimate OS in to my mac book pro. after that the partition is not supported and then the folder with question mark flashing on my screen. plaese helf me what to do next to resume mac mac os x?
Assuming that you tried to install Win 7 in bootcamp.
Power on the machine and press and hold the "option" key when you hear the bong sound.
Select the Macintosh HD icon and press "return" or just click on the icon.
Once booted into OS X go to System Preferences and select the Startup Disk icon and configure startup to use the Macintosh HD. -
Does the Black Mac Book come with an Apple remote?
Does it? I know the white one does, but I haven't seen anything saying if the black one does or doesn't. If some one could help that'd be great.
Thanks in advance.

I have a mac book pro. Yesterday the mail app failed to open. I have tried to open it from the dock and the application folder but nothing happens. Does anyone have any suggestions to get it to work?
You don't need iDVD unless you are going to make DVDs. If you are just trying to share files, iDVD won't help you at all.
What you want to do is in iMovie, choose File/Share/File, and export that way. It creates an .mp4 file that should be readable on Macs or Windows.
You could also File/Share/YouTube if you don't mind posting them to YouTube, because of course YouTube videos are watchable by any Mac or Windows computer made in the last 10 years. -
Hello, I have a problem with my mac book pro after running the battery dead on a game. The display has shrunk leaving two black margins on either side. What to do ?
Go to System Preferences>Displays and set the resolution to "Best for this computer" (or something to that effect).

Do you mean a case for the external hard drive? See here. Hope this may be helpful to you.

Yes, you can install 16GB in your new macbook pro.

Good luck. -

After migrating a new Mac Book Pro from Time Capsule, I noticed that I lost a group of Favorites on the older iMac. The puzzling thing is that the Favorites are on my iPhone--not the old iMac or the new Mac Book Pro. How do I get the Favorites back?
If you are syncing using iCloud, try going to System Preferences/iCloud (computers) and checking Safari. If it is checked, try deselecting it, wait 10-15 seconds, and then check it again.

I have transferred a load of files from my PC to my iMac using the migration assistant. The message on both machines say that the process was successful but I can not find the files on the mac. Any ideas?
When you use Migration Assitant it creates another user account and puts your files there. Please log out of your normal account and log into the new account. Had you use Setup Assistant when it asked if you were migrating that would not have occured. You have a couple of options, combine the two accounts (not recommended) or start over, use Setup Assistant and have everything in one user account. Here is a link to Pondin's guide for Lion Setup Assistant tips however if you want to combine the two accounts he has addressed that in

How do I recover my Mac Book Pro back to the day I purchased it? Will I lose apps that came with the Mac Book if I recover it?
Press the command and r keys when turning on your Macbook. Do not release those keys until you see the apple logo...
Disk Utility will pop up.....Your choices are to reinstall, you will not lose anything....
if however, you decide to format/erase your drive, then reinstall, you will lose everything...
suggestion - back everything up and do a clean install.
good luck -
I was wondering if i am entitled to a free upgrade to the latest mac book pro that was recently released not that long ago?
No, you're not entitled to a new MacBook. If I wanted the newest one, I'd sell the one I just bought and buy a new one.

Is any one running the 2011 mac book pro with 16gb
Is anyone running the new Mac Book Pro with 16GB? I am going to purchase the new Mac Book Pro and there are now 8gb memory boards on the market so it becomes feasible to have the Mac Book Pro at 16gb (2x8gb).
might be better off (this is about a macbook pro?)

Stress test for Léo. on a black Mac Book
I did a commercial presentation this afertoon and also tomorrow for a french company MGS, that work for Apple France.
So I had a black Mac Book with Léo. and a external firewire drive with all my applications.
so some problems:
*screen becoming dark some time to time.
*with Spaces, 4 spaces with, one Parallel Desktop with XP pro, VLC player in anotherone, Excel2004 in 3rd, and safari in 4th:
so sometimes became very slow and froze; decide to turn off bluetooth (as I were in a Mall in discoverable with a lot of people... ) seem to improve just a little bit.
full screen in VLC, and XP: support badly wrong directions indication (if I was in up right and wanted move more right or upper), move alone from one space to another from time to time, work better whan I used spaces quickly rather than stay on a space a while and then moved. Seem to have greater problems with one space with Excel 2004
For the utilisation: Seem don't be able to knwow wich App are already lunched . No indication in the dock (I had selected prefered spaces for each application), and some windows appears at the right of the dock, some didn't. disturbing.
Did have problem time to time with Paralell for moving from one space to another one in windowed View.
As I startup again and again beacuse of scratches, I selected the App in auto start in the pref of the login. I was in admin mode. Seems not working well everytime and disturbing that the information is not reported in the dock on Crtl click where you can choose to lunch also the App at the login (for every User I suppose). Maybe it could be grear to be displayed in the same form as the users sessions logged are, in the up right, with a mark for the loggin ones and in grey for for the "at screen".. hope U understand.
That make me think it could be an idea to have an Application pref panel, as we can modify things on application on the logging pref panel, on the dock, on the parental control, on the Spaces. It could be great to have all this informations displayed or that can be modified in just one control panel pref.
so after not be able to quick browse a document in the Finder, did not find how activate it...
In Time machine tuning on and then off, without any save done, make the firewire icon of the drive not come back immediatly, came back at the next start up (wich happened, sorry, not a long time after..)
And I had a question, what happened if the save drive is not connected at he time schedulded of the save, and for several times.. Did the saves are made on start up drive and then report on the external et the next start up or the process is just returning as normal at the next schedulded save time...??
(I didn't have the 10.5.1, but was a bit surprised by the general comportement of the Mac Book, even with 2Go Ram, with Spaces. I usually have lot of App opened on an Imac 2 GHZ, 1Go Ram, full screen mode for XP Pro in appearance mode and other App runnig (P2P clients on each, iTunes, VLC and so on) with no problem)Ha Ok. I did'nt have read anythong on it, but now i know.
In all casses, it's amazing to can chgange OS by just keyborad shorcut.. That impresses a lot, potentials switchers, that are very interresed to have a PC on their mac. The question, very often is why to have a PC on a Mac. By talking with pepole this afternoon, I found one good: not to buy again new softwares that they can have for PC, for the Mac, as Office or some Adobe's one for example. They just have to install Windows, and they can use their old soft without paying anything more. At the moment of choosing a computer it's quiete important not to pay more to have more... Next round today, saturday.. Big day..
