I have a Serial Number which worked fine on my MacBook Pro but does not work on my desktop PC (Win 7). What is the problem?

You haven't identified the version so I can't tell if offering you contact options for Adobe Support will be of use to you. But they will likely be your only hope of getting resolution unless you just happen to be using the wrong number as the serial number.

I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

Perhaps the PDF files are corrupted.
Hit the command key and spacebar, a blue Spotlight in the upper right hand corner appears, now type Preview and press return on the Preview program.
Now you can try opening the PDF's from the file menu and see what's going on.
If they are corrupted, perhaps they are trojans from your Windows PC or gotten from a bad location online.
Download the free ClamXav and run a scan on the possibly infected folder.

The button on the side that turns my phone to silent does not work and niether does the up volume button. I have tried restarting my phone, I did a soft reset, I checked all my settings, but nothing has worked. Does anybody have any suggestions?

Hello,
I have an iPhone 4 and recently started to have some problems. First, the button on the side of my phone, that puts the phone on silent is not working. I can move the switch, but my phone stays in silent. However, If I plug my headphones in, Then I can hear everything like I am supposed too. Also, my up volume button does not work. This is with the headphones also.
I have tried doing a soft reset, I reset all of my settings, I updated my software, I restored everything back to factory settings, and nothing has fixed it. I bought it from best buy and can send it in for service, but the last time I sent a phone in, it took them 3 months! and I really don't want to go without my phone that long.
Does anybody have any suggestions?
Thanks so much!!

Sounds like it either believes that there are headphones plugged in, or the switch is broken.
Why in the world would you take it to Best Buy for service? Take it to an Apple Store. They can replace it on the spot if it's defective.

2007 MacBook Pro ctrl key not working

Hi all,
I have used various iterations of bootcamp with my 2007 macbook pro without problem. I have also sucessfully installed Windows 7 64-bit using bootcamp and got it working almost perfectly (sound, video, magic mouse) despite it not officially being supported by the version of bootcamp that came with Snow Leopard.
My only problem now is that the control lkey isn't working. I've tried various keymappers to map it to another key (generally the Apple key) to no avail. And when I say it isn't working, I mean it's not working at all. Key mappers don't recognise when I tap it, I can't Ctrl-C to copy or Ctrl-anything to anything.
I have installed the Apple keyboard driver and everything else works perfectly, including the F-keys, Fn, alt and the Apple key (which opens the start menu). Any suggestions for how I could fix this would be greatfully received.
Thanks,
Alexis

Sadly it turns out that it's not working in OS X either. I had convinced myself it was a software issue but it is apparently hardware. Shows how seldom the control key's used in OS X doesn't it.
If anyone has any suggestions as to how I might have a bash at fixing it, please let me know.
Thanks,
Alexis

Using EarPods Mic with MacBook Pro 17" (2012) - not working

hello,
FYI: computer is the early 2012 MacBook Pro - last of the 17" models. it has the 2 separate jacks... one for audio/mic IN and one for headphone OUT. not combined like in the smaller models.
FYI: using a brand new (early 2013) pair of EarPods that came with a new iPhone 5.
i love using the earpods plugged in to the headphone jack to listen to music whilst working. and i also use it to "listen" when doing video conferencing via Skype, iChat/Messages, & Hangout.
but when i'm in a noisier environment (cafe), it would be nice for the other people i'm talking to to hear be better than what the built-in mic can provide. people tell me they hear me great using the earpods when talking thru my iPhone in the same locations.
so, i thought, okay, i'll just get a Y-splitter/adapter... female input to 2 male outputs. recognizing that the earpods have 3 rings on the mini-jack (2 for stereo headphones & 1 for mic, i presume), i made sure the adapter male ends had at least 2 rings on them. found one at Radio Shack.
but it does not work! :-(
discovered audio output comes thru fine, but the computer doesn't recognize the mic input.
i've gone to System Preferences > Sound > Input...
and changed the selection from "Internal Microphone - Built-in" to "Line In - Audio line-in port" but the level meter just goes dead.
i've done some reading about the MBP only allowing "line level in" vs "mic level in" but i don't know what that means.
can this work? if not, why?
am i just missing some setting somewhere? if so, what?
do i need some different kind of adapter? if so, please point me to one.
THANKS!!!

Good that it was a simple solution. I've had some of the mice lose the BT association and you have to clear out the configs and re-pair the two.

Right speaker on Macbook Pro (with Retina) not working..

Bought Macbook Pro with retina display yesterday and just noticed sounds is only coming from the left speaker. I've checked on system preferences and when I turn the left hand speaker down there is no sound. Is this a manufacturing error or something I need to do?!

Hi,
Not a lot to go by from the lack of detail in your post, however let me try to help.
[note I may not follo up on your response - just a heads up as i'm very busy [ arent we all]]
Anyway, I bought a HP Pavilliion 500 the other day. and was stoked - awesome machine at a great price locally.
So after plugging in my Altec Lansing 6.1 surround sound speakers using the brown/black/green colour coded input plugs on the back of the PC's audio card (built in) - to correspond with the cables on thealtec lansing, I noticed that 2 speakers were working at the same time, and another speaker did work at all.
I spent about an hour or 2 pulling hair until I finally turned everything off, then plugged it in, then turned n the speakers and then the PC - voila - the speakers were working, one thing I had to do though was move them around as the front right speaker was now the middle etc, no biggy - just moved the speakers around...
PS: there was a siding button on the back n my speakers that allow full 6.1 or stereo - which I hd to change to get it to work.
Also on the altec lansing model I have I had to adjust the surround knob on the main speaker control to #10 for surround for the speakers to work individually.
I hope it helps you somewhat?
Check what inputs you are using. Check the inbuilt sound control software, in my case it was DTS Audio Settings, which allowed me to tweak things a bit.
Sometimes yes it is hardward,but when you know your have "known good speakers"as I did, and a brand new PC - which in theory should handle the speakers I am using, then it can be a combination of trial and error to get them working...
I gues you have the latest drivers, and if you dont have any great input options (ie: if you only have headphones socket) and are using stereo - ty some headphones? - as sometimes it can be the cable socket itself which is just built slightly different so the speakers dont all come thourgh like they should...
Cheers

There are 6 keys in my MacBook Pro that are not working, how can I fix them?

I am experiencing issues with 6 keys (6, y, h, n, =, /) on my very old MacBook Pro, when I boot up my laptop these keys just dont work anymore.
But when I used the keyboard viewer it works, can anybody help me or guide me on how I can resolve my problem?
Big thanks!

Hey PurplejinG,

Macbook Pro intranet will not work on iPads

I'm trying to set up an intranet network hosted on my MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion 10.8.5. I have created a local web site hosted in the Apache server on the MBP, and I want 5 iPads to access it. Its event photos for sale. The problem is, the site shows up on the iPads ok, but when I tap a photo to enlarge it, it hesitates, then the browser crashes, every time, no matter what browser is used.
I'm using an Airport Extreme for the wifi. The problem occurs whether connected to the internet or not. I tried connecting the Airport to the MBP with an ethernet cable, and making a whole new intranet network on the Airport, and it still does the same thing, despite trying a lot of different configurations. So, I got a MAMP server, and it still did not help. I need it to work offline because the events I photograph rarely have internet access. I've tried using the peer-to-peer connection with the same result.
I have used the exact same system hosted on my iMac (identical operating system) with no problems.
I can't figure out what is wrong, any help would be appreciated!

2008 Macbook pro left click not working properly after upgrading to 10.6.8

I have a 2008 Macbook pro and a few months ago after upgrading to 10.6.8 my left click has been wonky.
Using the trackpad the left click eventually gets "stuck" or stops responding and I have to push it multiple times before it does anything. I have tried plugging in a mouse, but when I do so the mouse also behaves the same way. The only way I seem to be able to get the clicking to work properly is to restart the computer with the mouse attached.
I have seen threads about trackpads being messed up by swollen batteries, but my battery is brand new and looks fine, and the clicking problem extends to an external mouse, so I believe it is something with the preferences.
I tried deleting com.apple.driver.AppleBluetoothMultitouchTrackpad.plist and restarting and the problem seemed to be fixed, but then after about a half hour it returned.
Having to keep a mouse plugged into my macbook is driving me crazy, anyone know a solution?

I started having the same issue after update. I'm on a MacBookpro running 10.7.2
ICalled apple and they did a remove battery reboot, a reload lion and a option/command/R/P reboot on startup and then the computer started working. Two days later problem was back. I then did a reboot and the computer was back to working. Today the computer worked fine tell it went to sleep. I had to do a hard reboot to get the Mac up and running and now no left click. Please help. I can not use the Mac with the trackpad, a mouse, a Bluetooth mouse, or a digital pad. All so signs of left mouse click not working. One other item when you go to pick your user at startup the left mouse click works. Help!

Macbook pros to TV not working

I've been connecting my two Macbook pros (2008 & 2011 both on OSX) to a Sony Bravia TV for ages using a HDMI cable connected to a HDMI adaptor to Minidisplay. For some reason now the connection doesn't work. I've tried both computers, different HDMI cables, different adaptors, different ports on the TV (and entertainment center), and nothing works. When connected directly to the TV the screen remains blank, the laptop will flicker when the cable is first connected but then nothing. The laptops don't recognize the second screen at all. I've tried resetting the PRAM, unplugging and plugging, turning everything off and on, and restarting the laptop. Nothing has worked so far.

If your Mac is capable, look in System Preferences > Sound > ouput tab and select the TV or hold the Option key down and click on the Volume icon on the menubar to accomplish the same.
Here are the models that pass sound over HDMI and those that don't.
These Apple computers supply multichannel audio (up to 8 channels) and video signals over Mini DisplayPort:
iMac (Late 2009) and later
Mac mini (Mid 2010) and later1
Mac Pro (Mid 2010)
MacBook (Mid 2010) and later
MacBook Pro (Mid 2010) and later
MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012)1
MacBook Air (Late 2010) and later
1No additional adapter is necessary if you are connecting directly to the HDMI port on your Mac mini (Mid 2010) and later or your MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012).
These Apple computers supply only video signals over Mini DisplayPort:
iMac (Early 2009) and (Mid 2009)

MacBook (Late 2009)
MacBook (13-inch Aluminum Late 2008)

My MacBook Pro trackpad is not working

My Macbook Pro was purchased in September 2009. The trackpad is not responding to clicks on the computer.

Help me with this issue please ASAP!
