Need Help Please

Try this. Open one of your files. The window that contains your picture is named at the top. Command click on the name and you'll see the entire path starting with its name and then moving to the folder, the folder it is contained in, etc all the way to down to the hard drive volume name. This should tell you where to find the folder.

    While holding down the option key, select "Go>Library" from the Finder. Navigate to the Preferences folder and you'll find "com.apple.finder.plist". Delete that file and restart.

  • Can I use the IRig to plug in my guitar on my mac book Pro or it just works in ipad, ipod and iphone?

    Can I use the IRig to plug in my guitar on my mac book Pro or it just works in ipad, ipod and iphone?

    From their website:
    Got a Mac? Get an iRig!
    Now for the hidden features… if you have a newer Mac computer, you can use the iRig as an audio interface for it. The newer Mac models feature a headphone jack that act as a headphone/microphone input for headsets. This means that you can also use your iRig with your Mac laptop or desktop machine to take advantage of the higher processing power of your machine and you don't need an additional audio interface to use it. Simply plug the iRig into your headphone jack, plug your headphones/line out into your iRig and you've got a fully functioning audio interface for guitar/bass/keyboards, or any other instrument with a ¼" out. Pretty cool.

  • BEFORE INSTALLING OSX Mavericks, do I have to create a back up of all the contents on my Mac book pro or i just have to install it and everything stays without getting deleted.

    before installing osx mavericks, do i have to create a back up of all the stuff that i have on my mac book pro or can i just click install and everything stays without getting deleted.

    Never Ever do anything with an operating System without backing up first.
    While it is usual for a new OS to install with no loss of data, the time you do it without first backing up will most likely be the time that you wish you had backed up.
    In all of the updates and upgrades Apple distributes there is a recommendation to backup your data before installing.
    The easiest option is to get an external hdd if you do not already have one, plug it into the mac and follow the prompts to use the drive for Time Machine. Note that any data existing on the external hdd will be erased so use a new one or one that you are confident is ok to erase without a disaster ensuing.
    Also ensure that System Preferences -> Energy Saver has been set so the Computer Sleep is Never so that the backup will not be interrupted if this is the first backup or it is a long time since the last backup was done.

    cbharadwaj,
    I’d recommend that you make a backup of your personal files (if you haven’t already done so) and make an appointment with your closest Apple store or other qualified service facility to have them diagnose the problem.

  • Why doesnt mac book pro wireless  internet not work as well as my macbook

    Hello,
    My brother bought a macbook a few months ago, and we are on vacation now. He kept telling me to buy a macbook pro since i liked his so much, so i did. Know that i have it (1 week old) i have not been able to connect to the internet very well at all. If my computar and his are right next to each other, his picks up all of the signals while mine picks up none. Or if his computar is turned off, and im using mine, it connects only sometimes, and if it does, it is not very strong at all.
    Any help???
    thanks

    Interference Robustness can help improve connections and reception in areas with cordless phones, microwave ovens, baby monitors... etc.
    It's just a suggestion. Click the airport icon on the task bar at the top right of your screen. There'll be an option to use Interference Robustness.
    As the previous poster said, the MacBook Pro's aluminium enclosure can mean it get's a weaker signal than the plastic MacBook does.
    Switching Interference Robustness on might help you.

  • Mac book pro track pad not working

    Tried plugging in a mouse as well. Nothing working

    Can't quite put numbers on my score. In another thread about the same issue, the poster was able to free up the trackpad with compressed air blasts and regain complete functionality. In this case, success has not been complete. Maybe you need to be more agressive with the duster. And if push comes to shove in a Mac under warranty, better take it in. Trust me, Geniuses have seen more than their share of sand, dirt, crumbs or worse on the trackpads.
    If the Mac is out of warranty and the Genius won't accomodate without a fee, here's an alternate approach. First get a can of high quality non-residual electronic contacts cleaner. This is a solvent used for cleaning circuit boards, microswitches and the like, in a spray can presentation. Now comes the tricky part: you want to be able to flush out all the crap jamming your trackpad but WITHOUT letting the solvent trickle down and carry the crud inside.
    So open the lid, wrap the screen in a protective towel and while holding the Mac keyboard facing down, spray the cleaner liberally around the trackpad and ONLY the trackpad, letting it drip out and away from the Mac, working it till it clicks free. This, of course, is a two-person job: one hold the Mac and its protective coverings while the other sprays and exercises the trackpad.
    According to what at least two posters reported afterwards, this solved their issue when the dry approach (air duster) didn't.

    update, after another reformat and reinstall of the drive and OS, the macbook is running (not shutting down anymore) but only on A/C, and still does not recognize the battery. I installed Snow Leopard, checked to make sure I had latest firmware updates (did) then updated to the latest Snow Leopard version, about a 1.26 GB download, then used my USB install key for Lion and upgraded. No shutdowns during all of this, looks like a clean Lion install, but still does not see the Battery.
    Any of you experts have any ideas?

    I have a Mac Book Pro 2009 and a Samsung 32" Class (31.5" Diag.) 450 Series 720p LCD HDTV (2010 model).
    I am using a mini display port to VGA adapter. I have sucessfully hooked up boh devices but it stopped working after a handful of times. I was wondering if there is anything I can do to fix the problem or is my cable broken?
