Using my macbook pro whole day with the power adapter , will it affect my battery? Please help
It doesn't affect the battery. You can use your MacBook Pro plugged in all the time without damaging the battery. You only have to be sure that you unplug it and run a battery cycle (drain the battery without letting the Mac turn off and charge it fully) at least once a month to keep the battery life.
If you want more information about your battery > http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html

Can I use my Macbook pro in Africa with just a adapter?
I am travelling to Africa and was wondering if I can use my macbook pro with just the adapter for 240 or do I also need the converter.
On any of your electronic equipment, look at the power adapter. For example, the adapter with my MacBook Pro says "Input: 100-240V" therefore it will work at 240 volts with only an adapter, no transformer needed.

I am using an Macbook pro in conjunction with a Time Capsule. I back up all my aperture librarys on it, but how can i view these images that are stored on the capsule please ??
If you want to see what is in a file that is backed up by time machine then you have to restore the entire file. Having said that I have had good experience with Time Machine and individual files... if the file is there then all of it's components are almost for sure there. A way to get around this in Aperture would be to use referenced images. The images then still exist as individual files and can be backed up and restored individually. You would have to do so on a file by file basis though and your album information would still only be saved within the Aperture library.

i use a macbook pro which came with facetime i have an iphone 4S as well. whenever i use the wireless on my iphone i can facetime with ease however when i use the same wireless for my mac to facetime the call always gets disconnected.
To use factime on your Mac, I believe you will need to use your email address to do so instead of your wireless number. Since you can't make calls on the Mac.

I ordered my macbook pro online along with the apple care but apple says that the care will not be phyically sent. What does this mean? Is there something I need to do?
Since you're ordering both the computer & AppleCare directly from Apple, Apple Care will automatically be registerd. Thus, nothing for you to do other than enjoy your computer.

i cant update my macbook pro to mac os x 10.9.2 what do i do please help me guys.......
First off, you need to post in the correct forum. 10.9.2 is not the same as Mac OS 9.2. (12 years separate those two).
I'll ask this thread be moved.
Secondly, look at your Apple menu -> About This Mac and tell us what you have now.
If it is some version of 10.8, you can upgrade to 10.9, and then 10.9.2 free:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6131
If it is some version of 10.7, check the system requirements for 10.8 first, to determine if you can go straight to 10.9, then 10.9.2:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3761
If it is some version of 10.6 or lower, read this tip:

Since the previous computer crashed without my Adobe CS3 Design Standard for Macintosh applications being uninstalled, I'm having issues with the CS3 on my new Macintosh laptop. Please help, I've tried using the online "contact us" with no success, unable to get in contact with a tech support agent that can assist me.
CS3 is too old to run on a new Macintosh laptop, sorry. You'll have to purchase CS6 or a Creative Cloud subscription.

Hi, After I installed Mac Lion, I have problem with the tamil font while typing in Neo Office. Especially with the letters "e-Ex: தெ" and "ai-Ex:தை". Please help me I know its not bug from Apple It shd be some problem in neo.
Is your problem due to the keyboard or to NeoOffice Characters? You have to change probably the font. Not all fonts are supporting all Unicode sets. Which font you have in your NeoOffice set to write Tamil? Try with Arial Unicode MS for example.
Are the letter e-Ex and ai-Ex right in your posting? If they are right, how you inserted these letters in your posting? By copy and paste or by typing? If by typing, your question is related to NeoOffice. Probably you should reinstall or update NeoOffice? Or switch to OpenOffice?

I did not update my iPad 3 with the last update, will that affect me updating to IOS 6?
I did not update my iPad 3 with the last update, will that affect me updating to the new IOS 6? Will I get all the updates I missed in the previous update if I update to IOS 6. If not, tell me where to go to get the last update before I update to IOS 6. I thought I had time before this new one came out. Thanks for any help I get.
You can update directly to iOS 6 now. Not updating to iOS 5.1.1 does not matter. If you have updated the iPad before, you know what to do.

Using Internet Sharing on Macbook Pro 17" (intel) with the iPhone
Hi,
i like to use Internet Sharing on my Macbook Pro 17" (intel) with OS X Leopard.
Enabling Internet Sharing on Leopard works just fine. I share my Ethernet Connection with the Airport.
I can connect to the Airport sharing the connection with multiple devices.
It does however not work with the iPhone.
The phone can see the network. It even connects and gets its lease (IP Adress / etc)...
I did open a terminal and did ping the iphone. Doing that i disconnected the iphone from the wifi network and connected again. I found out that immediately after connecting the connection is working (ping reply) for about 2 or 3 seconds and then there is no reply... Sometimes it is working... but 99% of the connections dont work... (working for 2 seconds and then no reply)
This is only with the Internet Sharing on the Macbook Pro (intel) in combination with the iPhone. I did not have any other wifi problems with the iPhone or with Internet Sharing on my Macbook Pro.
Regards,
somi

thank you for your posts!
Nathan C: Did you notice this issue occurring when you were using Mac OS X 10.4?
Yes! I did not get it to work with Tiger also.
mucmac: just solved the issue by setting the channel for airport under Airport Options in sys prefs>sharing>internet sharing from Automatic to a specific channel
lazarus: Doesn't work for me.
and not for me
Richard Cartledge: Maybe it is a Leopard issue?
I think its a Macbook Pro / iPhone issue. Because other clients work well also the iPhone works on a Powerbook using Internet-Sharing.
Aaron@SODE: No luck for me! Tried every Channel and every MacBook Pro and MacBook in the company. The only Internet Sharing working is a PowerBook G4 running Leopard 10.5.1. iPhone works with the Powerbook without any problem.
The same applies to me! I really think it is a problem with the iPhone / Macbook Pro.
mucmac: what model of macbook Pro do you use? I cant get it to work on a Macbook Pro 17"

somi
