Macbook Pro RD Bluetooth mouse for design in bootcamp

Hy,
I am looking for a good mouse to use in my CAD modelling in bootcamp as the Magic mouse does not work properly on Bootcamp, Windows 7.
I usually went for gaming mices because they last longer and are better quality. Now I am interested in Razer Orochi 2013 bluetooth wireless mouse.
It is a compact gaming mouse that can be conected eighter by wire or bluetooth and I think it would be a good choice.
Did anyone experienced or own/owned this mice ?
Or does anyone have better examples of good quality wireless mices for design ?
Or if anyone knows how to make the magic mouse have a good respond to my comands in bootcamp ?
Thank you

Hello gerwintiemens,
I recommend resetting your SMC and your PRAM. Perhaps even a safeboot as well.

MAcbook pro - Logitech Bluetooth mouse

Hi there,
I have had a Macbook pro for 6-7 months now (lovin' it). I'm using it for graphics (adobe suite) at work. Connected to it is a Logitech V470 Cordless (Bluetooth) Laser Mouse. Everything was working fine. Suddenly the mouse started to lag horribly, goes slow, u cant even click on a button not to mention doing precise jobs like graphics. Could somebody help me out with this? Do i need to reinstall the system? (Leopard 10.5.5) Or maybe do a clean install? Would it help?
The things i tried so far:
Replaced the batteries in the mouse
Connected the mouse to another pc (it worked perfectly so it's not the mouse)
Installed the setpoint(hate them) drivers (did not help)
Uninstalled the setpoint drivers
Tried to turn off the airport card - didn't help
Pleas help me it's sooo annoying.
Thanks in advance!
Steve

While I'm not 100% satisfied with it, I recently switched from the puny mouse to a microsoft wireless laser 8000 (Bluetooth) and for the most part I like it. I haven' yet experienced any lag, it tracks better over surfaces like bedding, sofas etc. than the mighty mouse, and while I have yet to figure out how to program the side to side functions of the scroll wheel to act as 'back' and forward' buttons when browsing, many of its 5 buttons can be integrated into OS X. For instance, pressing the scroll wheel down yields the same effect as with mighty mouse: all app windows are pushed to sides to reveal desktop. The two more awkard side buttons can be used for expose or spaces, and lo and behold, the bloody mouse has a right button as well as a left, unlike that white horror I paid $70 for through Apple.

Macbook pro 13' or 15' for design student?

Hey, I am an industrial design student looking to buy a Macbook. I am considering buying either the 13" Macbook Pro or the 15" one. I am going to be traveling a lot, therefore size does matter, but on the other hand I'm worried that the 13" screen will be too small. What do you suggest I do?

Personally I have a preference for the 17" MBPs which are no longer offered as 'new' and I have not found it difficult to deal with when traveling. Thus my suggestion is to opt for the 15" MBP.
Again if I were to purchase a new MBP I would order the 15' with the anti glare, high resolution display. But my opinions really don't matter, yours do. I suggest that you go to an Apple store and make side by side comparisons.
Which ever option you choose, defer increasing RAM or a larger/faster HDD. Use third party vendors after purchase because you will get far more for your money than if special ordered via Apple.
Ciao.

Late 2013 Macbook Pro Retina 13'' Configuration for Designer

Hi there!
I'm working as a designer and I'm buying my first macbook. I want really smooth performance, good battery life for traveling and quiet - silent - not overheating - run.
That's why I'd love to have 13" (+ external) display and new Haswell, but I'm not sure about CPU & RAM at all. Could you help me, please?
I use following apps:
Adobe Photoshop & Illustrator (webdesign, iOS apps, logo & branding)
Chrome tabs (many), Youtube / Spotify for music
Standard office & communication tools (e.g. ms office, skype)
And I'm going to buy new camera and use Lightroom a lot.
So the questions are:
2,4 or 2,6 GHz (i5) or maybe 2,8 GHz (i7)? I'd love to have performance with i7 but battery life and silent run is more important.
8 or 16 GB RAM? Again, battery life and not overheating is very important. But if i5 & 8GB is not enough for my apps, then I'll buy i7 & 16GB.
Thanks for any advice!

1. i7 - you're going to get better performance when running CPU intensive apps (e.g., Photoshop & Illustrator).
2. Definitely 16GB - you can't replace the RAM in Retina models as you could in the 'older' non-Retina machines.
The Iris graphics in the 13" Retina is going to slow down Photoshop somewhat - I've not seen any specs on PS 3D rendering on the built-in Iris graphics. I don't even know if you can use the Iris graphics (vs. the Iris Pro and the NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M with 2GB of GDDR5 memory) for 3D operation (anyone know?).
I doubt that you would lose much battery life with the i7 - it's all dependent on how you use your MBP when running on battery.

Is it possible to transfer photos, files from iphone 5s to macbook pro via bluetooth?

Before I got the iphone 5s, I was using a Nokia phone. I was able to transfer photos, files from my Nokia phone to macbook pro via bluetooth connections. It was very simple and POSSIBLE (even though apple support staff said it was not possible to do so). My macbook pro does NOT need to be paired with Nokia phone as long as it can DISCOVER the nokia phone and vice versa.
Hence, after i got the iphone 5s recently, I'd expected both devices (iphone 5s and macbook pro) to communicate and connect via bluetooth as easily as Nokia phone. However, I was disappointed to find out the iphone 5s kept "searching" for discoverable device even though my macbook DISCOVERED the iphone!! Thus, I was NOT able to transfer any files from these two devices.
Any apple technical people care to explain why BOTH are apple products cant work? A Nokia phone and macbook can. Very strange, isn't it?

Althought,you can use bluetooth to transfer photos,files from iPhone to Macbook,However,it is so slowly,if you want to quickly copy photos/files from iPhone to Mac,you can use tools or software to help you,such as iStonsoft iPhone to Mac Transfer,This is a very professional tool,Hope this helps!

Can't pair iPhone 5s with Macbook Pro via Bluetooth

I have an iPhone 5s and Macbook Pro with retina display (running on iOS 8.0.2 and Yosemite respectively). For some reason, my iPhone can never see my MBPr but the MBPr can see the iPhone. Pressing the "Pair" button on in the Bluetooth setting panel in OS X will trigger the pairing confirmation to show up on my iPhone. After confirming the pair request, the devices remain connected for no more than 2 seconds. Then they just disconnect. (The status is "Not connected" underneath my iPhone on the Devices list in OS X)
This has been bugging me for a while, even before I upgraded to iOS 8 and Yosemite. I was hoping the upgrade will solve the issue but apparently not. My iPad on the other hand has no problem in connecting and remaining connected to my MBPr. That's just baffling.
Just some context: the reason why I wanted to connect my MBPr and my iPhone via Bluetooth is because I want to use my my iPhone as the hotspot. Yes, I can use the USB cable, but can't blame me for trying the wireless route (And no, connecting via wifi doesn't work)
Any help is appreciated!

Hi ddfaulk,

I cannot connect to my outgoing email server on my macBook pro, yet I can, for the same email account on my iPad. Also I can send emails from the other email account I have on my MacBook...really confused can anyone help?

Sometimes deleting the account and then re-creating it can solve this issue
Write down all the information in accounts before doing this
Highlight the account on the left and click the minus button
Then click the plus button to add the new account and follow the prompts

I am trying to connect a Macbook Pro to a projector for a Powerpoint presentation. When I use a VGA cable, the color of the projected images are not good. When I use a USB cable, the projected image includes the presenter notes on my computer screen?

To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
and select the Library that you moved. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
Your first option didn't work because you imported one Library to another. Every version and thumbnail is imported like a distinct photo, you lose all your Albums, Keywords etc., the link between Original and Previews is destroyed, the non-destructive editing feature is ruined and so on. In summary: it's mess.
Your second option didn't work because you simply referenced her library on the old machine.

ICal on my MacBook Pro has been "updating" for days...??

I have an iMac, MacBook Pro, iPad and iPhone. I have been using iCloud since it came out (running Lion). iCal on my MacBook Pro has been "updating" for several days. Also - when I add an event on the MacBook, it does not show up on any of my other devices (they are all set up with the same iCloud calendars). When I add events from my other devices, they DO show up in iCal on my Macbook Pro.
I am at a loss -- any help would be VERY much appreciated!
Thanks
Kim

Hello
Chance upon your post and yes, immediately after upgarding to Mountain Lion, my "new" Calendar (Desktop, formely known as 'iCal') keeps having the pop up window saying "Updating Calendar..." (I set my Calendar to auto-launch after Startup)
After restarting it will still be the same, but if I quit and launch again, everything will be fine. Will try the method you posted (the thread) tonight. Although I deleted the iCal preferences, thinking/hoping it will help
However, I don't seem to have a problem with sycning of al events, my sync with iCloud and all my macs and iOS devices seem OK.
If events are not syncing into some of your iOS devices, why don't you try deleting the entire iCloud account on it and re-set a new one? I've done that before when events or other data don't properly sync
Cheers

I have a 1st Gen, MacBook Pro from 2006. For the last few years I've had to us my power adaptor as my battery no longer works. Now my power adaptor looks like it's coming to an end. Even though it's securely fitted, it often switches off.

I have a 1st Gen, MacBook Pro from 2006. For the last few years I've had to us my power adaptor as my battery no longer works, and shuts down after 30 seconds it. Now my power adaptor looks like it's coming to an end. Even though it's securely fitted, it often switches off.
I am planning on buying a new MacBook Pro later this year, but for the meantime I'm not sure if I should buy a new power adaptor, or if this is a problem with my MacBook Pro. Also does anyone know where I can buy a battery in the UK for 1st Gen MacBook Pro.

OWC has batteries for 1,1 generation MacBook Pros and they ship internationally - http://eshop.macsales.com/.
Your best bet for a power adapter is to get one from Apple. Third-party adapters just don't seem to be reliable (or safe). You can also buy a replacement battery directly from Apple, of course, but they're a bit more expensive.
Good luck,
Clinton

How to download macbook pro (mid 2010) drivers for windows 7, without the included DVD (lost) ?

Hello everyone,
I am facing a problem with bootcamp on my Macbook pro 15" (Mid 2010, running Mos OS 10.6.6).
I have successfully installed windows 7 via Bootcamp, but I lost the Drivers DVD furnished by Apple.
I tried to download these using Bootcamp (v3.0.4), but bootcamp won't let me save it, i get this error :
"the windows support software could not be saved to the selected folder"
An Apple support article has been made for this problem ( http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3648 ), but it doesn't solve the problem in my case because I lost the furnished DVD.
So here I am, struck on this drivers issue...
So, my question is :

Aw, and I forgot, being in Thailand, they do not sell the installation DVD.

Using my MacBook Pro as the host for projection to my TV via AppleTV?

Can I subscribe to HBOGO thru Apple TV and avoid cable service using my MacBook Pro as the host for projecting to my TV via AppleTV?S

Possibly.
Some sites such as TMN GO which is similar will not allow mirroring to take place.
It works for about a minute then shuts down... Security settings from the site.
