  • Cable that will connect to a VGA port on a TV from my MacBook Pro (2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo)

    Hi,
    The HDMI port on my Maxent tv is not working.  I am hoping to connect my MacBook Pro to the TV via the VGA port on the TV to watch Netflix and movies.  What cables do I need that will connect to a VGA port on a TV from my MacBook Pro (2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo)?  And will that cable support audio or will I need a separate audio cable?
    Thanks-
    Sheri

    Hi Sheri,
    The Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro models have a Mini DisplayPort for video out, which can be connected to a VGA connector using Apple's adapter. See this product page -
    Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter - Apple Store (U.S.)
    VGA does not carry an audio signal.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • Anyone? (upgraded Macbook Pro 2.4ghz) ?

    Has anyone here done an upgrade to their macbook pro 2.4ghz from Tiger to Leopard without any issues? .. .like slowness in leopard or anything...

    Yeah - I did the upgrade yesterday and it ran without a hitch - much faster than I expected it to actually. I did "upgrade" option that overwrites the Tiger installation.
    In playing with it over the last day I like it, everything feels and looks a little crisper and the new features work pretty well.
    The only issue I have found is that if the screen goes to sleep when I am running on battery power I can't get it to wake up unless I push the F7 key, and when it does the mouse movement is a little jumpy. I can work around this for now, and will report it to Apple.

  • Stock RAM Configuration for 15" MacBook Pro 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

    Hello,
    I have a new 15" MacBook Pro 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo on it's way to me and I need to order a RAM upgrade. I know the specifications of what I need, but am getting conflicting information from the retailer on how the stock models are configured for RAM. The total amount is 2GHz. Does anyone know if this amount is provided by one or two RAM modules?

    You'll find the RAM is in a 2 x 1GB configuration. Unfortunately they both need to come out for you to upgrade to 4GB RAM in a 2 x 2GB configuration. Still cheaper than going with Apple which makes it a little softer.

  • MacBook Pro 2.4Ghz A1260 won't boot after case replaced

    Hi,
    I have a early 2008 MacBook Pro 2.4Ghz(A1260) model.
    It had some blemishes on the cover for normal use and I decided to replace the bottom and back cover case.
    After hours of work to put everything together just as it would be from the factory, no missing screws what not, the laptop won't boot at all.
    I can hear the sound of hard disk, but the led light on the power button does not lit on nor there is anything on the LCD display. No usual boot sound.
    I tried to reset the SMC by pressing power button for few seconds after removing all the power sources but nothing works.
    The laptop worked until this morning without any problems.
    Please help.
    Thank you very much.
    Regards,
    Robert

    Who replaced the case? It sounds like it is a self-inflicted hardware-related issue.

  • How do I download Adobe Flash Player on my MacBook Pro?  It says that I have to disable my antivirus software but I never installed one. Does it come with the Mac in the first place?

    How do I download Adobe Flash Player on my MacBook Pro?  It says that I have to disable my antivirus software but I never installed one. Does it come with the Mac in the first place? If so, how can I disable it or get Adobe Flash Player?

    That message is just a standard one issued, mainly for Windows users, you can disregard it if you didn't install any anti-virus. (OS X has one installed by Apple that doesn't interfere)
    It's just some forms of anti-malware are really paranoid and lock the entire machine down. (like Norton)

  • My iphone 5 will not sync with my macbook pro.  it says my computer is no longer authorized to download purchased items from the iphone

    my iphone 5 will not sync with my macbook pro.  it says my computer is no longer authorized to download purchased items from the iphone.  However, when I go to authorize my computer, it says it is already authorized.  How do I fix this?

    You can't change the Apple ID that the Authorize dialog comes up with by default. It's showing you that Apple ID for a reason: it means that the items you want to play were purchased using that Apple ID and therefore you need to authorize your computer with that Apple ID. Changing the Apple ID given completely defeats the entire purpose.
    If you don't know the password to the given Apple ID, then you will no longer be able to play those items.

    Possibly nobody has answered this in 10 hours because your question is not clear.  Accept?  What exactly are you trying to do?
    Do you mean authorize?

  • I can't install my old logic 8 on my new macbook pro. It says it does not support powerpc applications anymore. what do i need to do?? this is ridiculous!!!

    I can't install my old logic 8 on my new macbook pro. It says it does not support powerpc applications anymore. what do i need to do?? this is ridiculous!!!

    Logic 8 will probably run on your new machine but the installation program contains some older PPC code for pre Intel Macs. This was not a problem as all OSX versions contained the "Rosetta" PPC emulation, that is, up until Lion when all PPC emulation was dropped.
    There are ways to do this however, try searching Google for:  Installing Logic 8 under Lion or Mountain Lion.

  • Keynote: need to install keynote in my MacBook Pro; the AppStore says I need to have OS X 10.7.4 but it also replies that my OS X 10.6.8. is already updated. What can I do?

    Keynote: need to install keynote in my MacBook Pro; the AppStore says I need to have OS X 10.7.4 but it also replies that my OS X 10.6.8. is already updated. What can I do?

    You need to either upgrade your OS or buy install an iWork 09 DVD. If you're using a Core 2 Duo or better Mac with at least 2GB of RAM, it's cheaper to buy 10.7 or 10.8 unless you'll also need to upgrade any other software such as Microsoft Office 2004; neither OS supports PowerPC applications. If you're using a Core Duo Mac, you must buy the iWork 09 DVD.

  • Macbook Pro Early 2011 says (Not Charging)

    Hello, my Macbook Pro Early 2011 says (Not Charging) when I unplugged the charger, so I can't see how much battery percentage it has, the battery life runs normally, but I can't see where it goes because of the (Not charging) message. I can only see it when I plug the power adapter, but once I unplugged it, it comes the (Not charging) message again. please help. thank you.

    ok, the problem is that it says (Not charging) even though the power adapter is not plugged in. It is charging normally but doesn't show the battery percentage because it shows a (Not charging) message. The only way to know the battery percentage is plugging in the power adapter, but once I unplugged it, the (Not charging) message appears again and don't let me see how much battery it has left.
