Hello vdurphey, go from 3-bar menu button > Preferences > Content panel > '''Uncheck''' the '''Block pop-up window'''s
'''OR (i think better option)''' add an exception to your site in '''Exceptions...'''

When I try to insert a question mark I get an up arrow . Shift 6 should give a question mark but does not . How do I change this .
Take a look at:

The ML mirroring is hardware encoded (supposedly via a post 2011 Intel chip feature).
This attempts the same in software.

I got my mac book pro in the U.S., but I will be travelling to where there is 240 volt power. Does the mag safe power adapter switch automatically, so I just need a converter plug, or do I need a transformer to convert from 240 to 120 volts? Thanks.
Hi,
I too bought my Macbook Pro in the US and I live in the UK (its so much cheaper in the US! No 20% VAT!)
The power adapter does work on UK 230v power. You can also get a three pin extension lead (like the 2 pin US one that came with the MBP) for about £3 with free delivery from Amazon UK.
Another tip, whne you are back in the UK, and you are switching from a PC to a Mac, get in touch with your local Apple Shop who run one to one free courses on how to use your MBP.
Hope This Helps!! -
Using The Mac Book (Pro) With Music
I am thinking of purchasing a Mac book or a Mac Book pro very soon - either one will have an Intel Core 2 duo. However, I am very curious to find out if anyone has tried to use Logic and maybe other music software with one of these units (with core 2 duo) - and if so, can they tell us how far you can push it - in terms of CPU - plug-in's and audio Instruments etc. - and how it compares to powerful desktop units?
I have both a G5 tower and a Macbook pro. I use the tower primarily for recording and the pro for live gig situations, I'm considering moving all my recording over to the Pro and use the node function to utlize the desktop.
The pro is defintiely faster, I have yet to have any problems outside the fact that most of my plugins I use still won't run on the Intel pro. In terms of CPU I've seen demos running 99 audio tracks without much of a problem. The other consideration is disk size on the pro compared to a tower.
The main thing is compatability of plugins with the new Intel macs.
Hope this helps

what must i do? im a student and dont have backup for my work. Im in desperate need of a solution where i wont lose my work from my desktop.
You need to purchase Leopard if you don't have the DVD and reinstall OS X:
How to Perform an Archive and Install
An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger, Leopard or Snow Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update. -

Hi I'm using a Mac Book Pro with a separate apple keyboard (wired). Randomly the keyboard will make a thudding noise like a key is depressed and stuck (which it isn't) which then stops when the keyboard is unplugged. I've tried rebooting, plugging it into another port and unplugging my mouse from it and it hasn't solved the issue. I also can't pin point when it does it, it seems to be random so sometimes, like now it's fine and then others it does it every few minutes. I'm reluctant to throw the keyboard out if there is a chance it can be fixed. Any ideas?
You cannot use any additional devices on the keyboard's USB ports when used in this fashion (except perhaps ONE low power Apple mouse). Anything more draws too much power and may make the keyboard malfunction. In general, keyboards do not tend to complain about low power, they just stop working properly.

I have a Mac Book Pro with 10.6.8 and want to back up my files using a flash drive. It says I did it but when I tried to check on my other Mac - an I Mac with 10.5.8, thedata does not seem to be there. I cant see photos, etc.. It shows the backup as a file and shows various system info. but there are no photos or other files shown.
Thanks for any advise.
MikeA PowerPC Mac, if that's what it is, won't be able to see an Intel Mac's formatted data. Also ExFat formatting is not supported by 10.6.3 or earlier. I would try viewing the backup on another Intel Mac with at least 10.6.4. If it isn't there, then the backup never really took place. I much profer a hard drive with Carbon Copy Cloner.

I have a mac book pro with Boot Camp that also runs windows. I upgraded to Lion and now the mac side crashes/freezes periodically, especially iphoto. I am told by the genius' that I probably need to "clean" it and reinstall lion using the "recovery drive" which resets everything back to default and reinstalls the lion operating system. My question is will this also delete the "windows" partition drive and all that data too. If so that will be a huge pain in the ___ to back up and reinstall boot camp and windows. I want to shoot the lion.
There is no system like Acronis for the Mac platform. You can try using the buiilt in Disk Utility to create an Image of the complete Mac drive but I have found that this does not work very well as on tryiing to restore it gives errors sometimes.
You can use SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner to create a bootable Clone of your system partition. But that is only for the System partition and not the complete drive.
If you use Boot Camp to install Windows on your Mac neither of those two programs will clone the Windows side.
Neither will Disk utility as Mac's can not create or write to a NTFS partition. So some other program is need for that. -

The power supply (which is what I assume you call an adaptor) can be used to charge her MacBook, provided that it is of a similar or larger output. If you both have the same screen size MacBook the power supplies will be the same. -
I would like to use the Mac Book Pro hooked up to my television to watch tv and movies. We have a Mac Mini in our office upstairs that we use to watch tv through Plex 9. Its a large library that would not fit on laptop, so how do I watch all of our shows from upstairs to laptop downstairs?
eww wrote:
Copy the library from the Mini onto an external FireWire hard drive, bring the hard drive downstairs, and connect it to the MacBook Pro.
That sounds rather practical.
But, I might have actually found a use for Time Capsule as a Base Station (http://www.apple.com/timecapsule/wireless.html).
Think you could put your large library on Time Capsule and then share with Mac Mini and Mac Book Pro. If you share media from several places, you’ll need to use the Plex Media Manager on each computer. What I don't understand about Plex is that they also say (http://wiki.plexapp.com/index.php/PlexNine_Configurationstest):
Network Planning
If you’re installing several Plex systems, it’s important to get your network right. Generally, we recommend you install a wired gigabit network where possible. Streaming 1080p shows over a wireless network will probably result in jerky playback. If you see the ‘buffering’ overlay while watching shows, the network is not keeping up with the data demand. If you’re installing a wired network, use a good quality gigabit switch as they are quite affordable today as well as Cat-5e cabling.
If installing a wired network isn’t practical and you do want to stream HD video, investigate alternative networks such as HomePlug AV.
Ok, that makes sense, but they also offer Plex App For iOS Devices. See video / article "Exclusive Hands-On With Plex/Nine For Mac OS X & Plex App For iOS Devices" (http://www.crunchgear.com/2010/08/30/exclusive-hands-on-with-plex-nine-for-mac-o s-x-and-plex-app-for-ios-devices/). These are on wireless devices, so would one then assume "jerky playback". I really don't know, not something I toy around with, so just food for thought.
Also, according to yesterdays Back to the Mac event, The App Store will be added to Macs, as a download, within 90 days. It will also be featured as part of Apple's upcoming operating system update, Lion, which is expected in summer 2011 (http://www.usatoday.com/tech/products/2010-10-20-apple-macbook_N.htm).
Apple has added "Introducing the Mac App Store" (coming soon - nhttp://www.apple.com/mac/app-store/), which you can view for more info.
It seems like the Plex App For iOS Devices does pretty much of what you are asking for, but at this time, no way of knowing if that will be offered as an app for MBP via Mac App Store.
PS, if that Time Capsule as a Base Station works, supposedly you could also use MobileMe and access Time Capsule movie library over the Internet. It seems like it should work, given my own posts / questions about it, I really don't know.
If you try anything in this post that works, would like to hear about it. Thanks. -
I have a new Mac Book Pro with Retina, and Keynote crash almoset every time i use it?
I have a new Mac Book Pro with Retina, and Keynote crashes almoset every time i use it? I have the newest update.
Could you please help me? I have a lot of Keynote shows, and I have to use it now!!
I have saved a crash report, if you need it.Apple will not write back to you. Telephone using the Apple Care phone number appropriate for your country and ask for a refund, if that is what you want to do.
I use Keynote everday, it does exactly what it says it will do, that is if your NOT using Mountain LIon.
There are many applications available
I have used MS PowerPoint professionally for many years on both Windows and Mac, I can assure you it can do everything that Keynote can do and very much more.
Which software you choose depends on who you are and who you are presenting to.
for interactive presentations look at:
PowerPoint
Adobe Flash
Adobe Director
Camtasia
Dreamweaver (an HTML application)
for simple photo slide shows:
iPhoto
iMovie
Picasa
Photomagico
Adobe Lightroom -

☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
