Newer Games and Macbook Pro

I am just wondering in the coming months and years, Will games for the PC and Mac be released At the same time or will there be delays with releasing mac versions of games
Just curious b/c that the Macbook Pro is running a Intel based Processor

Here's my 2c on the topic...
I think you will still see the same delay in Windows to Mac based games there is today but this may change. It may change if the Mac becomes a more popular platform and takes over more market share and it may change if game makers change their strategy to releasing new games.
I'd love to see more games come out for the Mac myself but until then I have my Warcrack^H^Hft.

Either a sata II or III drive will be compatible with your MBP 2009.

Installed new memory and Macbook Pro wont start.

I bought a total of 8GB from PNY for my mid 2009 MacBook Pro (2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo). I installed it and my macbook wont turn on. When I press the power button it just beeps. The LCD doesnt turn on. I reinstalled it a few times to make sure that it is sitting correctly with no luck. I reinstalled my old memory (2x2gb) and it works fine.
The new memory I bought is PNY 8GB (2x 4GB) Bual Channel DDR3 PC3-10666. The package says that it is compatiable with 1333MHz and 1066MHz. This is the listed memory on the PNY website for Mac laptops.
Am I using the worng type of memory? I'm pretty sure my MacBook Pro can take 8GB...right?
THANKS!

One beep indicates no RAM installed. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1547.
What happens when you reinstall the old original memory? Does the computer boot then?
You might want to read the information at macsales.com (OWC). Certain models had to be updated to take additional memory.

From old PC ipod to new IPT and Macbook Pro

I have and old ipod whose itunes is on my parents old PC. I recently got a new macbook and ipod touch and now I need to get all of my songs from the old PC ipod to the new ipod touch via the new macbook. How is this possible!?

You have multiple options:
1. Put the Library on portable hard drive
2. Burn the library to DVD(s)
3. Use a big memory stick
4. Set iTunes to not sync, plug in your old iPod and set it for disk mode. Copy the files to your iTunes library.
5. Google Pod to Mac and download the freeware program that will copy your files from your iPod to the Mac.

After working correctly before Firefox now says that I don't have the propper permission to have the automatic upgrade process. New iMac and MacBook Pro both afected. Using Snow Leopard

After working correctly since I started using the iMac Firefox now say that I do not have the privileges to have it auto update the Firefox. I don't think I changed anything.
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== Since last update

Well, running on a 2006 model. I did not have a startup disc. Initially, it booted up on original software in 2006. Since then, I've upgraded to 10.6 via a box set. And, since then I think I popped it up to lion.
All I have on a disc is snow leopard. And, I can't get farther than the setup screen due to hard drive. I'm taking to a apple authorized repair store right now. We'll see what they tell me . I'm just going to weigh the cost of repair vs. buying new.
Another bad, stupid thing is I had no means of backing up my stuff. So, I might have lost things like music, vids, etc. we'll see if they can recover. If the cost is too much for repair I might just forget it and start over with a new system. Just not sure at this point.

Sync my new ipad and macbook pro

For Christmas I received the IPAD Retina and I am trying to Sync it with my MAC Book Pro. When I connect the cable a message appears saying that I need to install ITUNES version 10.7. When I check for updates on my MAC Book it appears there are no software updates available and I am running version 10.6.
HELP please.
Thanks,
G

iTunes 10.7 (from here) requires Mac OS X 10.6.8+ - is that what you are running or is it a lower version ?

HT5268 Just purchased Imac and Macbook pro and upgrades to Mountain Lion. Java will not run with one important site where my Grandson is in Kindergarten out of state with in room camera. What to do. This is very disappointing and non of apple geniuses kno

My new IMac and Macbook Pro are each loaded with Mountain Lion. Have Office for Mac also
When I try to see my Grandson on webcam out of state the login will not activate. For PC use I needed Java and Active X to let it run. My Java is checked as ready to go but nothing happens. Otherwise these are great computers. Please help me through the process. The Geniuses at my apple store can't understand what to do.

By default, OS X does NOT come with Java installed nowadays. You need to open the Java Preferences app found in Utilities; when you do that the first time, it will inform you of the fact and offer to install the product for you.
Afterwards, due to a major security issue we had back in the first quarter of the year, the plugin is disabled by default. You need to revisit the Preferences and enable manually. It will auto-disable if unused in awhile.
Lastly, you may have to adjust which Java instance is being used, the 32-bit or the 64-bit. Default is 64-bit, but some applets crash & burn or outright refuse to run in such a platform. You can prioritize which version you prefer by dragging on top in the Preferences.

IMac and Macbook Pro WoW gaming

Hi!
I currently own a macbook, and I need to upgrade if I want to play WoW in a decent quality.
However, I could NOT find any decent information about performance on the new iMac and Macbook Pro machines.
Would it be possible that if any owner that plays WoW could set graphics to Highest possible settings and post their frames per second in Dalaran for example? Mac details and specs would be very appreciated, specially for the graphics card.
Maybe this is not the place for this post, but I hope someone help me out on this. =)
Thanks!

The server and type of connection are also important. I get pretty bad latency over WiFi, for example, and the Gul Dan server has been really slow of late. I have 20M down / 5M up to the house and 801.11g router. With my 2007 MBP over wireless (good connection), I generally get in the mid 40's to 50's in the Outlands, but got 6 when I logged in last night (by the time I logged out, it had crept up to about 35).
On my 2007 24" iMac (C2D w/ the NVidia option -- last of the white models), I generally get 100-110 at 1900x1200 -- and that's using 100Mbps ethernet to the switch plugged into the ONT.

I just bought a new Retina Display macbook pro, and I plugged in my iPod touch (4th gen) into the new computer, but it will not show up, even after I typed in the passcode. How do I get my iTouch to sync with my new computer without restoring my itouch?

I'm a new potential FCP X user. Can I buy software to load onto my imac and macbook pro or is FCP X only available as a download? I'd like to be able to edit on the road.

I'm a new potential FCP X user. Can I buy software to load onto my imac and macbook pro or is FCP X only available as a download? I'd like to be able to edit on the road as well as at home.

Here's a short tutorial video about how to move back and forth between your base computer and the on-the-go machine. Very important info about which things can be copied within Finder and which things MUST be copied from within FCP X. Best wishes.

I have read that new purchases of macbook pro will get free upgrade to LION OS. When and how do I go about this?

I have read that new purchases of macbook pro will get free upgrade to LION OS. When and how do I go about this?

http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2011/06/06lion.html
The Mac OS X Lion Up-To-Date upgrade is available at no additional charge via the Mac App Store to all customers who purchased a qualifying new Mac system from Apple or an Apple Authorized Reseller on or after June 6, 2011. Users must request their Up-To-Date upgrade within 30 days of purchase of their Mac computer. Customers who purchase a qualifying Mac between June 6, 2011 and the date when Lion is available in the Mac App Store will have 30 days from Lion’s official release date to make a request.
Currently that's the only information available. I suspect more will be posted as we get closer to launch.

Recently when I connect Iphone 4s and MacBook Pro my computer stopped see new photos on Dropbox. I have changed iCloud password on Mac and Iphone, nothing. Deleted some pictures of iPhone, didn't help. Any ideas what I did to mess this up?

I cannot deleted. Computer keep telling that my dropbox is open. Don't see how to shot it off. Do I need to delete all pictures from dropbox first and delete application after. Will I loose all these pictures? Usually, I copy all photos to iphoto app.

The only way to do that is to Purchase it from the Mac App Store.

In that case... Install it on your New Mac using the Disc(s) and have all your Serial Numbers handy in case you are asked for them during the Install.
After the successful install... run Software Update to get any and all Updates... Then Restart your Mac and you should be good to go.
PS:
Make sure your MBPr is connected to the Mains for this Long process...

The new Macbooks and MacBook Pros - Firewire being phased out?

Hi,
Many thanks in advance for your attention.
With the latest release of MacBooks and MacBook Pros, does it seem to anyone else that Firewire is being phased out? Even the new iPod Touch's cannot be charged via a Firewire cable.
(The first iPod Touch has a Firewire/ USB compatible dock).
I am somewhat baffled as a year ago Firewire was all the rage for Video Editing. It had a better reputation for sustained transfer of data and not dropping frames.
(Critical with video editing).
Also - the several miniDV cameras I've owned, including my current model, all transfer their data into a computer via a Firewire port.
I have three External Drives at the moment (mostly for Video Editing) and all work with either Firewire 400 or 800 (or both). None have a USB 2.0 port.
The new MacBooks don't even have a Firewire port.
The new 15" MacBook Pro has only a port for Firewire 800.
Anyone else have any thoughts on this?
Should I begin shifting my external drives to USB 2.0 connectivity?
Even though USB 2.0's reputation for transferring Video is not very good?
- Ross

When importing video from FireWire-based camcorders, the video is sent in real time to the computer, which is why FireWire is necessary. That's because FireWire-based devices use tape to record video (DV or HDV), which cannot be accessed in the same way as memory cards or hard drives (the camcorder can't rewind during capture).
With USB-based camcorders, this is no longer an issue, as the video is stored and transferred as a file, rather than a real-time stream.
Also - the several miniDV cameras I've owned, including my current model, all transfer their data into a computer via a Firewire port.
FireWire-based camcorders won't work with the new MacBooks (you won't be able to import your video without using another computer).
The new 15" MacBook Pro has only a port for Firewire 800.
And an ExpressCard slot, which can be used to add additional FireWire or eSATA ports if necessary.
