Way to download DVD on new MacBook pro

Can I connect a windows laptop to use its drive? Or can I drag the install onto a flash drive?

Don't think the Windoze PC will let you do that. If the install media is in .ISO format, yes you can drag it onto the Mac's storage device. If you double-click on the .ISO, it will automount without requiring the optical media.
Else you can use any external optical drive, PC or Mac. Amazon had the color-coordinated buspowered Superdrive for the drive-less Macs on special today: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008AL9VXI/ref=pe_259560_25945250_pd_re_dt_dt3

    Microsoft store will provide a download manager (.exe) using your Product Key, which needs to be run on a PC. This manager will then let you download an ISO image to a USB and/or DVD.

  • Updates to CS5 are failing to download on my new MacBook Pro

    I just recently took delivery on a brand new MacBook Pro 15" with Yosemite. I still own CS5 and I installed the basic software and made all the necessary updates to the OS, but the updates for the entire CS5 will not install.
    I open the Adobe Install Manager, select the updates available, I will get the progress of the download all the way to the end but ultimately the downloads fail.
    Here's what I get in the Adobe Manager:
      Adobe Bridge CS5 4.0.5 Update
      There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
      Adobe Extension Manager CS5 5.0 Update
      There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
      Adobe Illustrator CS5 15.0.2 Update
      There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
      Adobe® InDesign® CS5 7.0.4 update
      There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
      Photoshop 12.0.4 update for Photoshop CS5
      There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
      Photoshop Camera Raw 6.7 Update
      There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
    I keep trying...by quitting and trying later, still no good. I've tried this five times. My internet is good, I just finished the OS updates and downloads, but the CS5 updates still aren't completing.

    Try using direct updates instead of thru the manager.  Product updates

  • CS6 suite is taking over 4 hours to download on my new MacBook Pro.

    I am trying to download the CS6 siute on my brand new MacBook Pro w/ retina display (no other new programs other than the MacBook's standard programs are currently on the computer). I began around 7:15am this morning and it quickly downloaded up to 85% of the program.  It is now been at 85% ever since and the "time remaining" has slowly gone from 6 mins to now 40 mins reaminig to download. It is now just after 11 am.  Is this normal or is this program not downloading properly?

    it's not downloading properly which is dependent on your internet connection, not what programs you have running.
    you should probably delete what's been downloaded and start over.

  • How can I get the updates for Photoshop CS5 to download to my new Macbook Pro where I have already installed CS5 from my original disk? I have tried many times over 2 days. I was able to successfully download the current version of Adobe DNG converter.

    How can I get updates for Photoshop CS5 to download to my new Mac book pro where CS5 is already installed from my original disk? I have tried many times over 2 days. I get the same error messages re downloading error. I successfully downloaded the current version of Adobe DNG Converter & it installed perfectly. Help please!

    The Adobe auto updater is highly unreliable.
    You need to look for and download the update yourself and then manually apply it as per the detailed instructions on the download page:

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Please note that the Adobe Camera Raw plug-in must be updated separately, after you have updated Photoshop:

  • Kernal Panics when booting Install DVD on new MacBook Pro

    First off, let me say that I know that Apple does not officially support OS X Server on their portable machines.
    With that out of the way, I have been trying to install Server (the Universal Edition, of course) on the new Santa Rosa MBP that I got last weekend. The Installer DVD will kernal panic when trying to start up the machine. So I took it to my job, where we have a Mac Mini with a Core Solo processor. The Install DVD for 10.4 server boots the mini up just fine. So I put the MBP into target disk mode, and installed server on a partion I had made on the internet MBP disk when I first got it. So the installer has 10.4.7 on it, which I thought might be causing the problem. So with the Mini booted off the MBP partion, I updated the Server install to 10.4.10 and all the other updates. I then restarted the MBP, held down the option key, selected the server partion to boot up from, and the machine still kernal paniced while still booting up (It never gets past the gray Apple Screen with the spinning wheel.
    Now I had hoped that the firmware update released today might help with the problem, but when I try to run that installer, it says that the firmware is not needed on my laptop. So I guess they had already installed it at the factory, even though it was not yet publicly availible.
    I have looked at the kernal panic logs on the non server version of 10.4 that the machine boots after the kernal panic (when I boot back into server, using the Mini as the boot machine, there is no kernal panic logs), and I have always found the same thing, it looks like something to do with the video driver is causng the problem. The first item that is always in the backtrace is:
    com.apple.NVDAResman(4.5.6)@0x500c4000
    So I guess I am just wondering if anyone else out there, with a new SR MBP, has has similar problems trying to run server on their new machines?

    The method you must use is outlined here:

    Best of luck.

  • Best way to move mail to new MacBook Pro

    I have my new notebook and the only items I want to move across is my mail. What's the best way to move my old mail to the new notebook.
    Migration Assistant
    Drag and drop

    What mail client are you using? In Entourage you'd want to export your mail store to an .rje file on your old machine, move that file to your new one, then perform an import.

  • No cd or dvd player on new macbook pro. how to install external software

    my new macbook pro with retina display has no dvd or cd player. how could i install any external software that comes in a cd like office for mac or any other type of software

    I purchased an external superdrive for this purpose. Apple makes one, and so do others. I suppose you could use a drive in another mac via sharing, if you have the necessary hardware. As for office, you can install that via download - that's what I did.

  • I just got my daughter a new macbook pro. She currently shares my wires apple id for iTunes on her iTouch. I need to set up an email account for her. Is there any way to set up a new iCloud email account but still use my wires apple id for iTunes?

    I just got my daughter a new macbook pro. She currently shares my wifes apple id for iTunes on her iTouch. I need to set up an email account for her. Is there any way to set up a new iCloud email account but still use my wifes apple id for iTunes?

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

  • I have ps cs4 for mac version with the dvd, but my macbook pro has no dvd player, need download

    i need a download version of pscs4 for mac since my new macbook pro has no dvd player.  I have the licensed version on dvd.

    if you follow all 7 steps, you can download a trial via one of the links on this page using a browser that accepts cookies:  http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a download problem, you didn't follow all 7 steps.  typically, failure to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 is the problem, but your browser must also allow cookies so that's (a restrictive browser setting) another potential source of problems.

  • Loading CS5 Master Collection onto new Macbook Pro with no DVD drive

    I have a complete, legitimate, registered version of CS5 Master Collection. I also have a new Macbook Pro with no DVD drive. I have lost the disk, but have the box and confirmation email when I registered the product, with the key code. This product cost alot of money and I really need to get it onto my new machine. Can I do this without having the additional cost of a new DVD drive? I already paid for and own the software with keys so it's not like I'm trying to bend anything or do it for free. Any advice would be appreciated thank you.

  • I have recently had to fire my web designer who was using iWeb.  Now I'm trying to figure out how to get the site to open in iWeb on my new MacBook Pro.  Is there a way?

    I have recently had to fire my web designer who was using iWeb.  Now I'm trying to figure out how to get the site to open in iWeb on my new MacBook Pro.  Is there a way?

    Firstly iWeb CAN'T IMPORT any kind of published html code as it has no import facility.  You can however add html code, javascript and css by selecting the html snippet and placing it on your page the entering the code in here and clicking on Apply.  You DO NOT create a shape as you say - you use the html snippet and place your code in there.
    There are not really a lot of ways in which you can write code - if you want to enter small amounts of code, then you would use an ordinary text editor to do this such as Text Edit on a Mac or Text Wrangler.  If you want to add code to iWeb like this, then you would either use the html snippet method in iWeb itself or you would have to publish the site to a local folder from iWeb and open the relevant html page with a text editor and add the additional code in this way and then publish.  However, if he decided to add the code with a text editor, then you would have to upload the pages directly to the server using an ftp client - if you try to upload the site directly from iWeb, all the extra code will be overwritten.
    As for checking whether the site was created using iWeb, all you need do is view the site in Safari and then click on View and then select View Source Code and it will tell you.
    Even thoough extra code was added to the site and he might well have done this by publishing to a local folder and adding the code with a text editor, he should still have the domain file for the site too.
    Ask again.  I'm sure that for adding quick code, most would not want to use programmes such as Dreamweaver, but a simple text editor will suffice.  As OT already said, if he claims that he does not have the domain.sites file, then try Flux 4 which is a web design programme and has full import facilities.  At least this way, if he just gives you the published version of the site, you have some way of opening it.
    You can download a free trial of Flux 4 and you can also purchase the full version from the Mac App Store if you decide you like it.
