Is there a thunderbolt expresscard for MacBook pro

Is there a thunderbolt expresscard expansion card for an early 2011 MacBook pro?

Actually, that is not what I am looking for.
This item connects to a lightening bolt port on a MacBook pro
My MacBook pro is the early 2011 model that does NOT have a thunderbolt port.
I want to add a thunderbolt port with an expansion card.
Anybody have info on this?
Thanks

  • Why there no more upgrade for MacBook Pro 17in ?

    Why there no more upgrade for MacBook Pro 17in ?

    The story I heard was that there wasn't enough volume of sales for Apple to expend the resources to develop the line further.  When the 17" MBP line only accounted for 2-3% of the sales, it wasn't enough to offset the expense to engineer it, stock it, support it, etc.  What they chose to do was to offer the retina display 15" MBP that supports the same resolution (and possibly higher) and at the same time reduce the number of models they have to support.

    It's that last sentence I'm curious about.  "However a MacPro already has much more capability already built in than Thunderbolt can add."
    I'm thinking of getting a Mac Pro, but see that it doesn't seem to have Thunderbolt. I'm not sure if I care. The reason for the Mac Pro is that I'm topping out my 8gb RAM 27" iMac capacity with the volume of work going through it, and my tech tells me I'm pushing it too hard.  I use it to run a small law office, but usually have about 15 apps open, with lots going on in the network in the background.
    Is there any reason to wait until Apple puts Thunderbolt into the Mac Pro?
    Thunderbolt will not increase the performance capability of the MacPro. It will add a bus that can be convenient, especially later on when Thunderbolt devices become more common, more mature and better supported - oh, and with more common will come less costly. From a pure performance standpoint the existing PCIe slots are much more capable and cheaper to implement. You would be giving up nothing with a current MacPro.
    My opinion. Thunderbolt is really a great move forward in the long run - needed something to replace Firewire and this is it. But there is no reason to wait on Thunderbolt on MacPro - it is redundant.

  • Thunderbolt adapter for macbook pro pre 2011?

    Hello,
    I have a macbook pro bought in 2009.
    There is a shared Thunderbolt display in my studio that I would like to use can I buy an adapter for my cinema screen port so I can use the Thunderbolt?
    If not is there an adapter planned by apple?
    Thanks

    Your MBP does not have Thunderbolt capability and there is no adapter for that technology.  You will not be able to connect to that display.  Note, this is taken from the Thunderbolt display specifications in the Apple online store:
    Ciao.

  • Verizon Announces EVDO ExpressCard for MacBook Pro

    Verizon announced an ExpressCard for their BroadbandAccess network. There is a press release at:
    http://www.evdoinfo.com/TheNews/Latest_News/Novatel_V640_Announced_by_Verizon20060803796/
    Many MacBook Pro owners have been waiting for this.

    Another solution is Sprint, I use the PPC 6700. The laptop Connects to the Internet Via DUN/Bluetooth. There is a timeout that's set VERY short, so the connection to the net drops if inactive for more that 15 seconds. Thats a real pain, but a simple solution is This little piece of free software...
    Internet Connection Keeper from http://alphaomega.software.free.fr/ I set it to keep alive every 10 seconds.. works like a charm. I have had the connection active for the last 4 hours without a hitch. Your of course limited to the speed of Blue tooth, In real world these mean Im downloading files at about 1.5 meg a minute. So it very usable. Unfortunatly, this phone does not have drivers for Mac, So you can not currently use the USB to make the internet connection (That I have found yet) Maybe theres a hack out there. One nice thing is that the USB DOES work as the phone charger, so I USB the phone to the MBP, keeping the phone charged, and use the bluetooth for the access, this way I stay online all the time without worry of the phones batterys. One thing to note, Make sure your using the latest updates on the phone itself. My current ROM version is 2.06.00 WWE Radio version 1.12.00 If you try this using older versions, the phone WILL lockup all the time requiring a hard reboot. I pay about 100 bucks for 2 phone lines and unlimited Evdo Plus I get unlimited texting, 1 thousand minutes, free nights and weekends. Net speed is fast enought that I have canceled my Cable modem. Which saves me another 50 bucks a month.

  • Are there any known issues for macbook pro freezing (applications mostly) because of internet fluctuations?

    Hi,
    I live in Philippines and our internet speed here is not very reliable.  It fluctuates a lot and sometimes, it would just drop to zero and then kick back in again.  I don't know why this is so - either it's our DSL or our router.  Nevertheless, I just want to know if there are issues with applications freezing in macbook pro (esp safari) due to internet fluctuations, causing the color wheel spin and the my laptop freezing for few seconds or sometimes minutes.  Everything would freeze, all I can move is my mouse and thant's it.  Usually, if an application is not responding, it's only that application. But l noticed this time it's causing the whole system to freeze.  I just recently upgrade to Mountain Lion.

    Welcome to Apple....
    Kumusta Ka?  Ma init pa dyan?
    If you're browsing the web and you're internet connection is slow or sometimes dropping, it is normal for Safari to hang or freeze for a little bit until it connects to the site you're trying to view or visit.
    Try this - go to system preferences - network - advance - dns and change your dns server.

  • Is there a user manual for MacBook Pro

    Struggling with jumping over to Mac from a PC is there a user manual?

    There is a user manual both in the box the MBP came from and on the hard drive. But it really doesn't cover using the MBP or what you need to know when switching from PC to Mac.
    For that you should look into get a good book on Macs. Sorry don't have any suggestions.
    If you were fairly proficient on Windows you will be on a Mac but Mac's are not easier to use. They are just different then PCs in some ways, and then they are the same in others.
    If you could describe what problems you are having that would go a long way to help you.
    NOTE: The one big difference between the systems is in Windows when you clicked the X in the upper righthand corner of the program the Program actually closes. On Mac when you click the X in the upper lefthand corner of a window you are not closing the program. All you are doing is closing that window, the peogram stays running in the background. You have to actually close the program by hitting the Command+Q keys (while the program is active and its name is in the menu bar even if there is no windows open for it) or go to the Program name in the menu bar and select Quit Programname.

  • Is there any new release for Mac Pro in this few months?

    I want to buy a MacBook pro but I'm afraid if I buy it in these few months and it'll have a new release. So I wonder if there's any release for MacBook Pro this soon?

    Apple has no set schedule for updating or releasing new hardware and the general rules of the past have pretty much all gone by the wayside these last 2 years. All I can tell you is that speculation about new Apple products is against the terms of service here and that the best time to buy a new computer is when you need it. Waiting to try and get the newest Apple product is a mug's game - just not worth it.

  • Is there a key on the MacBook Pro to toggle display options for a projector

    I have had some difficulty getting my InFocus projector to consistently work correctly with my MacBook Pro. Is there a key on the MacBook Pro that toggles the options for projector display? There was one on my last MacBook and my previous PowerBook.
    Thanks -
    Dudley Warner

    No, there is no longer a key to control external display modes (it's F7 on my 1st gen MBP, but the option was removed along with the embedded numeric keypad in the Early 2008 models). There's not a substitute keyboard shortcut (with the exception of installing a macro player like Keyboard Maestro). Your main option is System Preferences > Displays (as stated, ticking the box to show Displays in the menu bar provides a helpful shortcut).

  • HT201364 is there pages for macbook pro version 10.7.5 ?

    is there pages for macbook pro version 10.7.5 ?

    You need to either phone AppleCare and order replacement disks or buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store; the retail DVDs don't contain iLife. Once you've gotten a disk, insert it, restart the computer with the C key held down, use the Disk Utility to erase the internal drive, install a fresh OS, and include the disk with it.

    It appears to depend upon the version you will be using:

    Based on what I can tell, you may have to go to the second hand market in order to get a MBP that will run a compatible OSX.
