What if ingesting from DV tape to FC X using the Macbook Pro Retina which lacks a firewire port
I have used it quite a bit for connecting to external drives, etc. with no problems. Have not done a tape ingest as we don't have tape based cameras to work with any more. It appears to emulate a FW800 port perfectly.

I have the MacBook Pro (retina, 13 inch, Mid 2014) Memoria 8GB 1600 MHz DDR3 and I want to increase the memory. What kind of memory do I have to buy?
The RAM in the retina model can not be upgraded.

I'm about to buy the MacBook Pro Retina 15 inch in USA. I will be using predominantly in Europe. What accessories should I be buying?
We can't discuss what Apple is going to do or new products, but it does make a lot of sense if your gut feelings tell you to buy now.
I got a really bad feeling and ran out and got the last of the 17" MBP's with anti-glare and Snow Leopard.
Turned out I was right in listening to my gut, the abortion of OS X Lion came out killed my 15", Cupertino HQ was pwned by Flashback and Apple pulled the 17" MBP completely off the market.
Apple has purposely put the Retinas front and center in their stores, so the majority of the know-nothings buy those. If they thought a bit about buying a machine with future options in upgrade options they would, like you, choose the non-Retina.
Really if you want choice in hardware, your going to have to switch to a PC. As you can pretty much get anything you need on that platform. Apple's hardware choices have been sealing up and their OS X is turning into iOS, soon it's going to be nothing more than a dumbed down iPad.
Windows 8 Pro can be downgraded to Window 7 even, and since Win 7 is supported until 2020, you should be set for quite a few more years. The choice of software is vast on Windows and it's sort of the next eveolutionary step up actually. -
Has Apple pulled the SMC update for the Macbook Pro Retina from the App Store
Does anyone know if Apple pulled the SMC update for the Macbook Pro Retina? I can no longer see it as an update in the app store. I am refering to the update that enables power nap on the Macbook Pro Retina.
It showed up in my ML App Store.
What is your SMC version?
Mine is
SMC Version (system): 2.3f28
and I don't have the update installed.

What sort of spywear/virus protection does the macbook pro retina have
what sort of spy wear/virus protection does a macbook pro retina have
The system has built-in malware protection that Apple updates as required as long as you keep you system properly updated.
There is no spyware protection. Only you can prevent spyware.
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. -
Can't update from 10.8 to 10.8.2 on Macbook Pro Retina 15" (restored from old Macbook Pro 13")
So I bought the new Macbook Pro Retina 15" and restored from my Macbook Pro 13". Everything is good except that when I go to AppStore to update other Apps it says I need the latest 10.8.2 update but that doesnt' even show up. Is there some new update coming out soon that will resolve my problem?
If the 10.8.3 comes out and I can't update it from the AppStore, then I'll try your original method you wrote "
Boot to the Recovery HD partition, Command+r at startup, and select Reinstall Mac OS"
But with that method, do I keep everything or will I lose everything? If it keeps it, I can do that right now then.
Thanks!!! -
Is that I sold my macbook pro an the person who bought it needs it quickly so I have an external drive but it is not portable so I bought a portable external drive but it may take a while to arrive so I backed up my data with the external drive that I have in my house but I would like to know if I can restore my data to the new external drive without the macbook pro and just with the external drive of my house to the portable external drive.
Thank youNo, that's not possible. A computer is required in order to effect such a transfer. Connect both drives to your computer. You can use Disk Utility to clone one drive to the other. Be sure you first partition and format the new drive:
Drive Partition and Format
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.
Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility in the Utilities folder.
2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag
it to the Destination entry field.
5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
the Source entry field.
6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the new external drive. Source means the old external drive. -
Upgrading from a MacBook Pro (2009) to MacBook Pro Retina - Which method is best?
I have just gotten my Retina MacBook and am about to migrate/tranfer files. I have not yet started up the new machine, so haven't engaged the intial sequence of questions asking for transfer.
Here are the three options I have been told...
1) Use the initial startup and transfer files from old machine - both have to be on the network (I have the ethernet/thunderbolt atachment) - but cannot be directly connected. However I have over 400 GBs on my present disk - and this could take a long time - some discussions have said this could be a 24-36 hour process.
2) Use Migration assistant - connect both directly through an ethernet cable. (might take less time)
3) Connect a (SuperDuper) clone copy - on initial boot - hold down option key to come up off the clone drive - clone over the disk to the new drive. (My concern here is that it is an older build of Lion 10.7.4 which will generate problems). (Take much less time)
Any thoughts would be most welcome!
ThanksUse can use a clone with Setup Assistant also. As long as you have a connection the the drive when you start up (Firewire cables, usb cables, network connection, direct ethernet connection computer to computer).
The problem with migration assistant is that you can't migrate data to the same user. If you use it, create a different user when you set up the machine. Then, you can migrate your user account, and delete the original one later.
Easiest way is to just make your connection and use Setup Assistant when you first log in. Then you won't have to deal with the other problems which could result from improper copying.
You could also manually set up the new computer and create your settings as Shootist suggested. Manually add your outside applications back. You can copy your files and documents back manually from the external drive.
This might be the best method because you will not bring any orphaned settings or corrupt settings from the old system. But, it will just take you a little longer. -
I have recently just bought a macbook pro and it doesn't have a firewire port. So how can i transfer all my music, photos, docs and videos across. Any help ???
My new-ish MBP has a Firewire port, but it's not the old-style one you might be familiar with. Look at the ports for the Firewire symbol (looks like a Y). You will need an adapter to connect an old-style Firewire cable to it. (Yeah, I know there are names for them and "old-style" isn't one of them, but they slip my mind at the moment.)
Alternately, since you should be backing up anyway, do a full backup from the old machine and then import from the backup on the new one. See my Mac Backup Guide* ASAP if you aren't currently backing up!

What's the best hardcover case for the Macbook Pro Retina?
Hey everyone! I recently bought the new rMBP and since this is a very expensive piece of investment, I want to protect it with a case. I've read in some forums and other product reviews of Speck and Moshi that these are the top brands in the market... and these brands are what I am thinking about of buying.
The only concern that I have is that it might chip the aluminum of my rMBP when I'm trying to install it and it will accumulate dusk in a few weeks. If so, regular cleaning means taking my hardcase often... would it damage my laptop and the aluminum?
Any brand suggestions? Thanks! : )So if a hardcase would make my rMBP heat up... is a skin better? I would reaaaallllyyy want to have something to protect my Mac.
I found this: http://www.amazon.com/SPIGEN-SGP-Protector-Fingerprint-Incredible/dp/B00ASNOSG6
And in some reviews online it's better than Zagg Invisible shield because it wont turn yellowish in color in the long run. -
anybody can help?
How can I change the language from USA to Chinese? I already select in setup.If it didn't take for some reason, go to System Preferences… and select the Languages & Text preference pane and reorder the languages accordingly.
Note however that specifying a language may not necessarily change everything about a system to being in that language. -

What is an easy web-page creation program for use with MacBook Pro?
Can anyone suggest an easy web-page creation program for use with MacBook Pro? I have used FrontPage with my PC, but am changing to a MacBook Pro.
It largely depends on your skill level. Do you want to write web page code, or do you want to just design something and have it turn into a web page automatically?
If you are more of a designer, try these:
RapidWeaver
Freeway Pro
Muse
If you want to write web page code, try these:
Coda
BBEdit
Dreamweaver
If you really don't want to write the code and want the best experience for your viewers, and you want to spend the least amount of time on it, my recommendation is:
No program at all.
Instead, sign up with a web site company like:
WordPress.com (hosted by them) or WordPress.org (hosted on your server)
Squarespace
Wix
The reason is that these companies have fully operational, nicely designed web site templates that you just fill in with your words and pictures, and they are ready to go. They also give you these benefits:
Already designed to the latest web standards
Already designed to resist hackers
Already designed to work on all browsers
Already designed to automatically adjust the page for readability on desktop, laptop, tablet, and smartphone screen sizes
Already designed for accessibility
Already designed for Search Engine Optimization so that your page will be found on Google
Already designed with social media links built in if you want
It is not like the old days where you build a site in Front Page and you assume it will only be seen on a desktop computer. If you build it yourself with a web page program, do you have the knowledge to make a site that works on all of the different web browsers and mobile devices, and is friendly to search engines and social media? If you don't have those skills, working with a website company can be a lot better, faster, and more reliable than trying to hammer all of that out yourself using code in some app. -
