MacBook Pro - Widget problem - Help!
When I set up my new MacBook pro I used the "Migration Assistant" to transfer the information from my PowerBook to my new MacBook. In doing so it appears to have grabbed the default Widgets from my PowerBook and replaced the ones that came preinstalled on my MacBook. Problem is a couple of the default widgets that I use almost daily “Business” (e.g. Yellow pages), and “People” (white pages) aren’t working. Properly. As soon as the dashboard appears these two widgets both have a “lego” type box with a question mark in the middle. Is this because they were coded for the PowerPC equipped PowerBook as opposed to the "universal" MacBook Pro?
I've searched everywhere on Apple.com's Widget page, but I can't seem to find these two widgets so that I can reinstall them. To avoid having to resintall the entire OS for the sake of 2 Widgets, can someone who owns an Intel based Mac please post me a download link where I can download them so that I can reinstall those two widgets?
If you need the widgets that were originally included with your Intel Mac simply download the shareware utility Pacifist 2.0 (www.versiontracker.com or www.macupdate.com) and use it to extract copies from the file archives on your OS X Installer DVD.
As for third-party widgets you can try locating them at various sites including those referenced above as well as at Apple's software and OS X support sites.
Widgets are neither universal nor PPC compiled applications.
Third-party widgets are normally installed automatically in your /Home/Library/Widgets/ folder. The default OS X widgets are installed in the /Library/Widgets/ folder.

How did you install Windows? Did you use Bootcamp Assistant or did you use a virtual machine like Parallels, Fusion, or VirtualBox.
If you used Bootcamp Assistant, did you download and install the Windows Support software (drivers) in accordance with the Bootcamp instructions? -

I am having difficulty getting my scanner (HP5590 Scanjet) working with my MacBook Pro, can anyone help please. It did work alright with my IBM notebook.
There's a new driver bundle for OSX 10.6 that you might need to install, the HP link seems to be failing at the moment but there's a version of it here: HP_Installer_Scanjet_v2.4.3_Ph4.dmg
There's a piece on the HP Forum about it here (some folks have problems installing ...)

I've just got a new MacBook Pro, and want to have iTunes Match on it. But when I go to 'add this computer' in iTunes on the MacBook, a message comes up saying I've reached my limit of Match being on 5 devices. This makes no sense because I only have match on my iPad and my old Windows laptop and nothing else.
Out of curiosity, I turned off iTunes Match on my iPad to see what would happen, but I still cannot get Match on my MacBook Pro.
Please help!Do a backup before proceeding.
Try putting the 10.6.3 disk in the computer. During a restart, hold down the option/alt key, select the disk, and see if you can boot from there. If so, select the language, then go to the Utilities menu, and select Disk Utility. Check to see what partition scheme you have by selecting the hard drive.
If you don't have GUID, you are going to need to erase the drive and reformat, which will cause you to lose all your data. Did I mention doing a backup?
If you do have GUID, run Disk Utility repair disk and repair permissions. You may have to do this more than once. Then try in install 10.6.3.
If successful, use the combo update to get to 10.6.8 and then run Software update until there are no more updates.

My Airport Extreme cannot be discovered by my macbook pro. Need help.
New, out of the box, the AirPort Extreme is broadcasting a wireless signal with a name like Apple Network xxxxxx.
If you want to configure the AirPort Extreme using wireless, you must log on to this network first from your Mac.
Click the AirPort icon at the top of the screen, click Join Other Network, click Show Networks, select the Apple Network xxxxxx and log on. No password is required. Then open AirPort Utility.
Or
If you have a spare Ethernet cable handy, connect it from your Mac to one of the LAN <-> ports on the AirPort Extreme to establish a direct connection. Then open AirPort Utility. -
I am getting white screen of death on my Macbook Pro, can someone help please?
I am getting white screen of death on my Macbook Pro, can someone help please?
Intermittent or inconsistent situations as you describe are the most difficult to resolve. First step you should do is be certain that you have your data backed up. I suggest that you do this by creating a bootable clone using Carbon Copy Cloner. The advantage to this is that not only is it a backup but can immediately be used to run your MBP in the event of an internal HHD failure.
The article that I gave you to start your search contains a link to this article:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3353
Though lengthy, it can resolve most issues if you go through all of the sections. If you cannot achieve success, then an Apple store genius bar is the last option.

Possible hard drive problem with MacBook Pro? PLEASE HELP!!!
MacBook Pro loads to login screen with my personal account (which shows a grey silhouette) my student account(shows custom pic) and guest account(same grey silhouette) there is no feedback when I click on anything. I have restarted it multiple times & don't get anywhere with it. I just updated stuff on the macbook prior to this incident. I need help because I have all of my business, school, and personal things on this machine. What could be the cause of this? Why is it happening? I need it fixed ASAP as I have work that needs to be completed
P.S. I am unsure of the exact operating system but it was the Mountain Lion that it came with. I was planning on upgrading to Mavericks tonight until this problem arose"Any drive can fail at any time."
Don't update anything until you have a large-ish external drive and Time Machine or other backup working.
You dodged a bullet this time. Next time, maybe you will not be so lucky. -

I'm having this issues suddenly where I wake up and turn on my MacBook Pro and pooofff, it happens.. Anybody tell me what happens and any solution can be made??
Got no idea why the image flipped upside down.. = =It looks like that the installation process of one of the applications have caused some trouble. One of them may have changed or added kext files.
For that, the Window server crashed if you try to open a non Apple application like Firefox
Start the system in safe mode by holding the shift key on power on.
If save mode is reached, perform a permissions repair with the Disk Utility.
Don't bother about upcoming warnings like "could not repair file xy" as that occur cause you use the tool on a running system and opened files can not get touched by the tool.
After repair is done reboot system to normal and try to open Firefox.
If the problem persits, please report back here.
