Print Screen on a Macbook pro

How do I do a Screen Shot on a Macbook Pro. On Windows there is a Print Screen button. What is the equivalent on the Macbook Pro.
Thanks

Shift+command+3 takes a snapshot of the entire desktop.
Shift+command+4 lets you select portion of screen to capture. Press space after it to select a window.
To see more info, go to Finder > Help and select Help Center. Search for "screenshot".

    Screen sharing setup in 10.5, 10.6 are described by the links by operating system.  10.7 is fairly similar to 10.6.
    And if both Macs have Firewire, you can setup a Firewire over IP network for fast communication between machines.  Note if you have two different Firewire ports a 6 pin to 9 pin Firewire cable does exist.  There are no Firewire to USB cables.

  • How do I print from wifi-connected MacBook Pro to printer connected via USB to Win7 PC?

    This is really frustrating, and I did not think that anything could be this difficult on a Mac. I have a Windows 7 Home Premium desktop PC connected via ethernet cable to wireless router, and a printer connected to the PC via USB. I recently bought my first ever Mac - a MacBook Pro, which is connected via wifi through the same router. All I want to do is to print files from the MacBook Pro on the printer connected to the PC. I have spent a LOT of time searching all over the web. Have tried some 2 or 3 different methods but none of them work for me, e.g. I shared the printer on the Win7 desktop and then added the printer on the MBP with the IP option with LPD/LPR Protocol, after enabling LPD Print Service on the PC. The printer gets added but when I give the command to print from the Mac, the print job shows up on the printer queue but the "Printing" soon changes to "Error Printing" (or something like that) and nothing gets printed. Then, I have to switch off the printer, remove the print job from the queue and switch on the printer again to get it out of the error state.
    I also tried setting up the printer on the MBP using CUPS Admin interface, i.e. localhost:631. Again, printer gets added but document does not print. The third way I tried to add the printer was using the Windows option in the Add Printer dialog, and typing in an smb: URL but no luck with that, either.
    Please, can anyone help me? This is driving me crazy
    Oh, and the devices are:
    1) Windows 7 Home Premium Desktop PC
    2) MacBook Pro running OS X Mountain Lion
    3) HP Deskjet F2110 printer
    Thanks...

    First Install Bonjour for Windows on your Windows machine. This will allow the printer to be discovered.

  • How do I get Elements to occupy full screen on my macbook pro? - the docking station remains visible and I don't want to have the dock in hide mode?

    How do I get Elements to occupy full screen on my macbook pro? - the docking station remains visible and I don't want to have the dock in hide mode?

    Unfortunately, there is no answer to this problem via this link. It may be that this is simply how the software actually works. It is a design fault in Adobe Photoshop Elements. It is possible to temporarily hide the dock within 'system preferences'. Oh well. Someone may know better.... I hope!

  • I have a very tiny, fuzzy black speck on the screen of my Macbook Pro 15".

    I have a very tiny, fuzzy black speck on the screen of my Macbook Pro 15". It doesn't resemble dead pixels I've encountered in the past (it is only visible behind a white or brightly colored background), and I'm positive it isn't sitting on the surface. The computer is only a year and a half old and my software is up to date.

    Hi austinbread,
    It is hard to tell exactly what your issue with the MacBook Pro’s display is, but it is possible that there is a pixel anomaly. See this article for further information -

  • Screen defect on MacBook Pro

    I have a MacBook Pro that appears to have a screen defect, as shown by the image below. How can I have this fixed? If I have to go to the Apple store, will they still repair this screen, considering the MacBook Pro is over five years old (early 2008)?

    See my reply to you in that other thread.
    Good Luck.

  • Screen stuck on gray, used shift key and my screen appears with MacBook Pro and not the recovery option. Please help

    Screen stuck on gray, used shift key and my screen appears with MacBook Pro and not the recovery option. Please help!

    Hi ..
    Shift key boots into Safe Mode, not Recovery.
    This only works on a Mac running v10.7 Lion or later.
    Startup your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys. From there you should be able to access the built in utilities to repair the startup disk and restore OS X using OS X Recovery
    If you can't boot into Recovery Mode, help here >   Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup
