Lost MacBook Pro Disk One

So i lost my Macbook Pro disk one, which yes contains the actual OS installer. Is there a way to send in for another one? I'm still under warranty.

Phone Apple(1-800-SOS-APPL in the United States) and ask for replacements; you will need the computer's serial number. There will be a charge for it, as neither the warranty or AppleCare covers lost system disks.

How long does it take to delete all the files in a lost MacBook Pro?

How long does it take to delete all the files in a lost MacBook Pro?

Quite a while since there may be 1/2 million files or more to delete. There is only one quick way, and that is to reformat the drive.

Is it possible to have 2 mail programmes on my macbook pro? one for business related emails and one personal. I dont want all the emails in one mail programme!

Is it possible to have 2 mail programmes on my macbook pro? one for business related emails and one personal. I dont want all the emails in one mail programme. At the moment i have 2 personal email address being sent to my mail but because of receiving huge numbers of work emails it would be good to keep them seperate, what is the best way of doing this?

if i use the one mail programme can it separate the incoming mail from the different email accounts into 2 folders without me having to do it manually?
Yes, you can. Nearly all email software can do this. It involves creating two folders and a Rule for each folder.
Maybe call one folder Personal Mail, the other Work Mail (Apple Mail calls folders Mailboxes). One Rule would route all mail from your personal email account into the Personal Mail folder; the other Rule would route all mail from your work email account into the Work Mail folder. It's actually easy to do, all you have to do is click a few things and the rule is set up. Once the Rule is written you can also apply it to existing messages already downloaded to your Mac.
In Apple Mail, Rules are under Preferences > Rules. Follow the prompts to create a rule like this:
If = Any
Account = my Personal account (select the name of your personal email account)
Perform the following actions: Move Message to Mailbox = my Personal Mail (select the name of your Personal Mail folder (aka mailbox))
This rule says, "take any message that comes in from my Personal Account and move it to my Personal Mail mailbox (folder)"
Create a similar rule for your Work email.

Is Snow Leopard part of the the gray MacBook Pro disks? I am having trouble burning a cd and was told to reload Snow Leopard? I do not have a Snow Leopard disk? Help!

Is Snow Leopard part of the gray MacBook Pro disks that were included with the computer when I purchased it. I DO NOT have a disk with SNOW LEOPARD written on it?

Maybe you should first tell us what your problem is. You may not need to reinstall Snow Leopard. Snow Leopard is what your installer disc has - 10.6. Reinstalling may also require installing a number of updates as well. Here's the basic reinstall process:
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

Can I restore my white 2010 macbook with macbook pro disks?

I am selling my macbook to a friend, but I don't have the disks (she is aware of this) however my boyfriend has macbook pro disks, can I use these?

You can try but they probably won't work. Typically the discs that come with a particular model will only work in that model. Contact Apple about obtaining a replacement set of discs.
Call Apple Customer Support 1-800-767-2775 (telephone numbers for other countries - http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57). Provide the serial number and specifications of the Mac. They may be able to provide a replacement set of discs for a fee. These discs will be for whatever OS was installed on the computer originally, so if you have an upgraded version you will need to obtain the discs some other way.

Why doesn't my Macbook Pro disk drive work?

I used to have an old white MacBook and that disk drive didn't work as well as some other problems... the people in the Apple Store couldn't fix it and so gave me a free upgrade to a MacBook pro (great, right?!).
Everything on it works perfectly except for the fact... that the disk drive doesn't work, just like on my old one.
When I go to put a CD/DVD in (I've tried many incase it's the actual disk) nothing happens whatsoever. Nothing pulls the disk in, and there is no icon on my desktop/Finder to let me know it's recognised. If you push it all the way in it gets stuck and there is no way to eject it... It's as if there isn't a drive at all?
It doesn't make much sense because my MacBook Pro is brand new.
Taking it back to the shop causes a lot of hassle and usually when I get it back again, something else is broken.
Maybe I'm just cursed...
Any advice on how to get it working? I've tried the trouble shooting, it doesn't help.
Thanks!
Jess

Hi, I have tried those things, bit nervous to try the Power Manager reset - apparently it can cause changes to your data?
I tried the SMC and no different.
I'm a bit anxious about bringing it in for service again, because with my old MacBook we had to go to London and back five times, and each time we collected it the people had fixed the initial problem, but broken something else in the process. I was without a computer for almost a month!!
Right now I'm in my final year of studies and need my computer constantly. Can't afford to survive without it whilst it's fixed.
Is there definitely no other option?

I'm debating between a Macbook Air or a Macbook Pro which one would you suggest?

I'm debating between a Macbook Air (MC965LL/A) or a Macbook Pro (MD313LL/A) which one would you suggest?
I will be using this for college and taking it to class with me. My biggest fear is that I may be too hard on the Air and damage it, but I like that it is lighter and looks cooler. But which one do you believe is more logical and provides the best computer quality overall?

This is an objective comparison,
Meanwhile, we start from the price of their basic models, considering of course that could get discounts as a student in the Education Store. Required about 100 € more to buy an Air with the same screen size of this Pro and already, in some cases, may be enough to make your own choice.
Assuming a score to score, we could say: Pro 1 - 0 Air
Until recently, the beloved laptop for school purposes was the white MacBook.Orphaned "bianchino", now out of the list for some time now Apple, the Mac that is most on the economic front is approaching the Air 11 "(900 € on the edu store). Air 13 "display offers a native that could be called HiRes, identical resolution to that of Pro 15" base:
Air 11 "(16:9) 1366 x 768 = 1,049,088 pixels
Pro 13 "(16:10 format) 1280 x 800 = 1,024,000 pixels
Air 13 "(16:10 format) 1440 x 900 = 1,296,000 pixels
The comparison on the screens is not to be taken seriously. After all, is what we will see during every second of computer work.
And so the challenge back in a tie: Pro 1 - Air 1
For size and weight comparison is merciless. The Pro is a portable slim, well built and, after all, not too heavy. However, this aspect of the Air is unsurpassed. He created a new category of laptops is so small wonder. The weight is also almost halved with 1.3 kg against 2Kg. For those who are always on the go is a godsend for the university and also the difference in the shoulder is remarkable.
We update our score: Pro 1 - Air 2
The battery is offered in both cases with a duration of 7 hours. 2-Air Pro 3. Another aspect that is rather in favor of a tie on the graphics: Both models use the Intel HD Graphics 3000 with 384MB of DDR3 SDRAM condivisa.Pro 3 - Air 4.
In academia, it may not feel quite the need for a Firewire port, but the fact remains that the Air does not have it.
I guess that's the case to score another point: Pro 4 - 5 Air
I scored a little more than necessary to have a complete line of Air, but for the purposes of this comparison we are interested in the value obtained from the Pro 13 'Air base and 13 "base. Both processors are dual core and, as you can see, the little guy gets along very well though with a slower clock. There is also a crucial aspect to consider: these data refer to the computing power but do not take into account the incredible speed-bump-up by SSD. Translated into monetary terms means that if the Pro 13 "is marginally faster when the CPU is under stress (such as video encoding) Air 13" is significantly more responsive in every area. By now you will present the advantages of SSD, as we talk about it constantly, and be assured that we are talking about really obvious differences in the everyday. The advantages obtained clearly outweigh the disadvantage resulting from a delay of a few seconds more in exporting an iMovie or a few seconds to compress a full-bodied zip file (which then increased the write speed scale in part). To assign a score in this area I find then a little 'in difficulty. From the viewpoint of the CPU Pro 13 "is slightly faster but we are sure you can assign an advantage when then every single operation, to start since, requires up to 8 times (the value is clearly approximate) of the time ' Air 11 "? I have no doubt to say that overall performance on the front of the Pro 13 "basis, as configured, is beaten hands down Air 13" base.
I say then: Pro 4 - Air 6 (but wait ... is not over)
Do you know where the above discussion decade? The MacBook Pro is much more expandable: add just € 77 and takes a 60GB OCZ Agility SATA3 that mounts in an instant. At that point, the bill draws on the opposite reactivity with SSD and the difference of the processor, though not so obvious, back to bite. It is also possible to realize different combinations. We have spoken of a disk of only 60GB in effect, but in the Pro can also be used as an adapter to enter the optibay the HDD of 320GB in place of the original SuperDrive. In this way we obtain the speed of the solid disc for the operating system and applications and the increased capacity of a traditional hard drive for archiving. Also, the RAM, which base is 4GB on both, on the Pro can be easily increased to 8GB. To want to do things right we should say that the added cost rises well and lose the initial assumption for which we have assigned a point to Pro for the greater economy.Furthermore, the comparison is based, only the basic models, however, the counter remains a valuable expandability, both now and in the future: if after some time you should decide to improve the performance of your Mac, is with the Aircan only change SSD (mSATA but those are expensive), while the Pro will have more flexibility.
u point for the Pro: Pro 5 - 6 Air
With the 2011 version of the MacBook Air has resumed the backlit keyboard, but still (and will) not have an Ethernet port, Superdrive and the infrared receiver. The absence of the reader / writer is a point against him, this is indisputable
equal footing Pro 6 - Air 6. As Apple moves fast towards a future where this will no longer be necessary (see installation and operating system software via the web) can still be useful today. It must be said that with less than 30 € you take an external drive efficiently (review) but this still requires to carry around another "element". On a personal level each of us will be evaluated differently this absence, there are those who do not tolerate it and who has already got used to (in extreme cases supported by the Remote Disk feature) but it is still a lack of perspective in a single complete computer , at least at present.
For this reason we say: Pro 7 - 6 Air
pull the money (or better scores ) won the pro of a single point.
i hope it can help you ti choose

Lost macbook pro, how can i find it ?? help !!!

my macbook pro is lost , how can i find it. i didnt turn on my findmyiphone on icloud !

Do you have a Pro Support actived and a Location Service?
Do you have a "Find My Mac" in iCloud?
If you don't have any of this, will be hard to find your Mac!
Check in your iCloud if your Mac was localized. If show like "offline", click in "Lost Mode". A Access Code is necessary to unlock your device posteriorly. If you not have one, a new 4 number code is necessary. See instructions in iCloud help. If anybody turn-on your Mac, it enter in "locked mode" and nobody can use it and you can find it!
Alternatively, you can back to airport or call and check in "Lost & Found" department if anybody find your computer!
Good luck!!!

MacBook Pro Disk Space Issues & Recommendations

I am looking for recommendations on how to free up disk space. I have a 250GB MacBook Pro-2013. I have a 2TB Time Machine back-up hard drive. Photos take up 50GB, videos 60GB, music 30GB. My Time Machine backs up my computer each time it is plugged into an adapter and on my home network. Is this too often? Should I move all my photos and videos of family to the cloud? Do I need another external hard drive to store photos, videos and music on? I have emptied trash, deleted unused apps, deleted old documents and deleted old iMessages. Thank you for your help!

Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
1. See Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks' Storage Display.
2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
6. See The Storage Display.
You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.

Macbook pro disk ejection

I attempted to put a disk into my 2009 Macbook Pro and it began making some weird noises, like grinding and shuttering noises. I pressed eject and the disk came back out. After that my computer keeps attempting to eject and then run a disk and back to ejecting something. I'm not 100% sure if I may have put the disk in when there was another disk in. I'm not sure what to do...

"I'm not 100% sure if I may have put the disk in when there was another disk in. I'm not sure what to do..."
Only one disk will fit at a time. Take it to an Apple store or AASP.

Installing OS X on iBook using Macbook Pro disks

Is this possible? I've lost my iBook disks and borrowed my friends' disks for his Pro. When I click to reinstall, it loads from disk but a kernal error comes up, "We are hanging here..."
Is it not possible for me to reinstall using his disks? If not, why?

Hi
No its not possible - think about it?
Grey Installer disks are hardware specific. A MacBook Pro in terms of hardware is completely different to an iBook. Different CPU, different board components, different graphics card. Besides if the version of the OS is 10.5 for the MBP then it's more than possible that the iBook may be a model that does not qualify Leopard's minimum requirements.

TS4002 I had 2 iCould Accounts - one on MacBook Pro and one on iPad - long story. I changed the one on my iPad to sync with laptop. Now I can not get my iCloud mail on my iPad since it only want to set up a new one, not my existing one. How do I fix it

Hi:
I had two iCloud account - one on my iPad set up with Me.com. Its a long story as to why I had two account which I will not the issue. I changed my iPad account to link up with my MacBook Pro account - which is my primary account. After doing this all seemed OK except I could not get y primary iClould email account set. When I tried to add my primary iClound email account it only allows you to add a NEW iClould account which is not what I want.
How do I correct this issue? Thanks.

Thanks Winston but your solution did not work. In my iCould account everything works except Mail - that being contacts, calendar, reminders, etc. When it comes to mail it is currently OFF. When I turn it ON, it states that I need to create a NEW free iClound account, and allowing me to establish my existing account.
When I tried your solution, it stated that the account already exists but in reality it is not on my iPad.
Any more thoughts?
