Translating software for MacBook

I want to buy my sister some translating software for her MacBook as a Christmas present. She's going to Chili for a couple of months. She cannot take her dictionaries on paper but she would like to have a dictionary Dutch-Spanish (and she cannot always go to an online website). For the Dutch language community, there are some very good dictionaries called Van Dale, but they only work on pc's.
Does anyone knows translating software for mac? And is there a way to use the Van Dale dictionaries on her MacBook (without installing VirtualPc and Windows because this -particularly windows- takes to many of her storage space, she says)?
Thank you,
Leen

How about this?

    Is there any software for macbook to recover a deleted file?

    Hope & prayer?
    Whatever it is you end up using, it is IMPERATIVE you stop using the Mac until the rescue is completed.The more the drive gets modified, the greater the chance that the storage area the deleted file used to occupy will get written over, thereby making rescue impossible.

  • What is the preferred anti-virus/malware software for MacBook Air

    What is the preferred anti-virusmalware software for MacBook Air?

    None is required.
    Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
    An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
    Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
    See these Apple articles:
              Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
              OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
              OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
              About file quarantine in OS X
    If you require anti-virus protection I recommend using VirusBarrier Express 1.1.6 or Dr.Web Light both from the App Store. They're both free, and since they're from the App Store, they won't destabilize the system. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.)
    From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
    The facts are:
    1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
    2. There is no anti-malware that can detect anything targeting the Mac because there
         is no Mac malware in the wild, and therefore, no "signatures" to detect.
    3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
         the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
         techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
    4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
        your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
        protection against malware.
    5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
        from which they purport to protect you.
    6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
    7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
    8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
        you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
    9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware.

  • HP Print Software for MacBook Pro and Windows 7 gone awry on HP OfficeJet Pro 8600

    Almost one year ago today I wrote a post about my first problem with HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 N911.  Today I write my last.
    I have an HP OJP 8600, with option Tray 2 included, and auto feed included.  My system test computers are:
    1.  Apple MacBook Pro, OS X 9.5, HP software is the only 3rd party software.
    2.  HP Laptop, Windows 7.
    The OJP wireless radio gave up, so I cannot run it wirelessly.  It is connected by ethernet to my router.  All five of my computers can use.  All of the functions of the printer are usable.  For example: it prints, it scans, it copies, it faxes.  All functions working.  My problem is with the HP software download to the Apple and to the HP Laptop.
    I would like to be able to use all of the feature settings when I print.  But alas, I cannot.  Both the Apple and the HP Laptop have a similar appearing window that opens when you choose to print something.  In theory, you are supposed to be able to control a range of paper types and quality, print type and quality, and (in my case with the two trays) what tray to use to select the paper.
    I regret neither of the computers perform these functions.  And all of the mistakes that I find on the Apple computer I find on the HP Laptop Windows 7 computer.
    I don't have the time to test every combination.  But I think the table below will help you get an idea of what the problem is with the software that HP sends offshore for maintenance.
    The results of the paper quality selection, the print quality selection, and the tray availability are as follows:
    PAPER              PRINT QUALITY                         TRAY AVAILABILITY
    Plain Paper
    Plain Paper  DRAFT/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray              Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2
    Thick Paper  DRAFT gray/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray         Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2 gray
    HP Bright    DRAFT/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray              Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2
    InkJet
    Other        DRAFT gray/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray         Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2 gray
    HP Bright    DRAFT gray/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray         Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2 gray
    Specialty
    Other        DRAFT gray/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray         Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2 gray
    Card         DRAFT gray/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray         Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2 gray
    Brochure
    HP Brochure  DRAFT gray/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray         Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2 gray
    Other        DRAFT gray/NORMAL/BEST/MAX DPI gray         Auto/Tray 1/Tray 2 gray
    In summary the new HP Print software for Apple and Windows 7 computers has identical programming mistakes on both operating systems.  Under no circumstances can I use the MAX DPI setting.  
    The user cannot use the features that are built in to the HP software because the paper selections override the locked tray, the print quality, and the unusually small list of HP selection of papers.
    It is time to invoke my warrenty rights.  There are too many systemic problems with the software and the device.  I don't have any more time to act as an unpaid system test analyst for HP.
    Who do I contact to use my warrenty before it runs out in a few weeks?

    Hi,
    Those are not programming mistakes, but those are limitations of the product, please check the printer specifications below:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02858465&tmp_track_link=ot_faqs/top_issues/en_u...
    As you may find under Paper-handling specifications > Paper tray capacities, Tray 2 only support Plain Paper.
    Maximum DPI is only only supported on Photo Paper, therefore those limitations are applicable.. these limitations are also listed on the Printing Specifications section above, Maximum DPI is listed as 4800 by 1200 dpi:
    Color print resolution: HP enhanced photo quality with Vivera inks (up to 4800 by 1200 dpi Optimized on HP Premium Plus photo papers with 1200 x 1200 input dpi)
    As well that can be find listed within the Print photos on photo paper or the Print borderless documents sections, you may simply search for Maximum DPI within the user guide as a reference:
    http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03026243.pdf
    Those are not an issues with the printer but those expected limitations fully meet the product specification.

  • What is the best temperature gauge software for MacBook Pro?

    My MacBook Pro (late 2011, i7 Quad 2.4 GHz, SSD, OS 10.8.5, 8 Gigs RAM) which I use for pro audio production has started stuttering while playing back audio a couple of times - only editing a stereo track with no plug-ins.  I thought it was my Glyph drive because my studio can get warm when the weather's hot in San Diego, even though I've never experienced this before.  However, I moved the current project to my internal SSD boot drive and it started again after using the computer for several hours.  I now think it's a heat issue effecting the laptop itself (it was 85 degrees F in my room).  I want to buy the best software for checking temperatures (CPU, drives, etc.) and am looking at both iStat Menus and Temperature Guage.
    Are there any recommendations for which is best (or if something else is better)?  I would rather pay more for software that won't cause me problems when I'm doing large mixes, etc. 
    Thanks!
    Robert

    They all access the same data, so one's as good as another. iStat Menus is good for displaying a variety of information in the menubar for convenient access. But if all you want are temperature readings then I would select Temperature Monitor 4.98.

  • Translation Software for .pdf files

    I have an instruction book in French which I want to translate to English in pdf format, I have Adobe reader 9 and can dump the text into a primitive translation software which is only suitable for Hi and Hello use, which loses the guide images.
    I have seen $400 software which can handle this problem but is there anything better?
    Many thanks for any help from David.

    We  are still very, very far from seeing a decent automatic translation program, so I wouldn't expect much in that respect. Also, PDF files are sort of terminal files, no meant for further manipulation, so it is not at all easy to reconstruct the original file from which a PDF file was made. I have read of some programs that claim to do this, or at least to convert them in Word files, but don't know if they are up to what they claim. Finally, translating directly in a copy of the PDF file is simply a nightmare.
    Can't you contact the author of the PDF and try to obtain a copy of the file from which thePDF was made? This seems to me the easiest and most reliable way of doing what you want.

  • HP1020 Download Software for MacBook Pro

    I have an HP1020.  I need to download the software so I can print from my MacBook Pro.  Apple told me to go online and download the software for HP1022.   I can't figure out how to do this and I don't know what "Lion" or "White Snow" or whatever is.  All I know is I need to print and I can't do this.  Could you please help me?  Thanks!

    So for this printer and this OS, all you need to do is download the drivers from Apple Software Update. Here is a document that should help guide you through...

  • Voice activated/transcription software for MacBook Pro?

    Can anyone recommend any voice activated and/or transcription software for my Mac Book Pro? I have interviews to do and transcribe!!
    Any help gratefully received....
    Thanks

    Check http://www.roaringapps.com/ for alternatives, and Running Windows on a Mac, and Connecting it to Mac.
    Note, you posted to the 10.3 forum, which does not run on the MacBook Pro.   Yosemite software is still beta, and 10.6 software on Roaringapps is not complete.  Go to Apple menu -> About this Mac to verify which operating system you have.

  • Startup software for Macbook

    We just received our Macbook after spending $1,000 for repairs.  It is one year old.  It was sent back to the local store from Louisville, yet it cannot be used until the original software is re-installed.  We do not have the original software and after spending $1,000.00 for repairs it seems as though it should be ready to use.  Why can't Best Buy reinstall the software since they took it out?

    This comment also applies to your other post on this subject. It is not best buy or apples fault if you lost or did not keep the software that came with your 1 year old computer. This is the exact reason it was in there. Still have the restore disk from my 10 year old Compaq.
    I am sure Apple can send it to you though if you call them. I know my mom needed all the software for her Acer laptop and they sent it all to her for like 10 bucks. And I am not even sure you can buy Apples operating system retail? Maybe you can and I have just never seen because I have never looked for it.

    In General 3rd Party AV Software is Not Required as Mac OS X tends to look after itself.

  • How do I download the Windows Support Software for MacBook Mid-2010 ?

    Hey guys, I've got quite a big problem at the moment... In December, I bought a MacBook7,1 (the Mid-2010 Unibody model) and used my OS X install disc whenever I wanted to install Windows XP/Vista/7 drivers to my Boot Camp partition. However, I've recently got quite a bit of a problem...
    See, I can't find my OS X Install Disc. So I have to use, from within the Boot Camp Assistant, the "Download the Windows support software for this Mac" function, to be able to burn to DVD/install to a USB stick.
    Now, this function up until recently used to work completely fine - no issues at all. However I need to reinstall my Windows 7  (again, I know, Windows has quite a few problems but I really do need to use it for what I do - gaming, etc) again, and whenever I try this option in the last... week, I'd wager, it comes up with "Download could not be continued" and "The Windows Support Software is unavailable" errors.
    I've checked on this forum and some people are saying that Apple removed the support software for some Macintosh computers? What on Earth? What about us lot who don't have our OS X install discs anymore?! I don't think it's fair they've specifically gimped a functionality that was working fine until a bit ago for no apparent reason. It's just... stopped working. Is this for everyone?
    Is there some alternative I can use? I've tried everything. I don't have someone I could just borrow the OS X install disc from and I think it's rather unfair if they expect to me to shell out for an OS X install disc again when I could previously do what I wanted for free!!!

    The point isn't whether I lost them, the point is that I was able to use the Boot Camp Assistant previously fine to download the Win Support Software and put that on a USB stick (which has since been formatted for other usage).
    Since this was made available as an option, I haven't really had much need for the OS X install discs (Unless I really, really needed to reinstall OS X at some point but I have no reason to fear that right?). To claim this being "okay" because I've misplaced the discs is rather outrageous.
