    IMAC DVD Player does not recognizing dvd movie . I have an IMAC (10.7.4) using DVDPlayer (vers. 5500.26.11) and it will not recognize/play a dvd movie...it thinks it is a blank dvd. The IMAC will play rented dvd movies.   The dvd movie plays fine on my Mac Book Pro (10.6.8) on the Pro's DVDPlayer (vers.5.4) abd in my external Sony DVD Player  The dvd move was made/burned on a PC.   Why will a dvd movie play on my Macbook Pro and not my IMAC?

    Hello:
    This is not an area I have much experience in......I rarely insert DVDs and I have never had a similar problem.
    When the DVD is in the drive (and DVD players is open) click on File>get disk info.

    Hi I have only 2 days in USA to buy Mac Book Pro 13" with Retina display. The issue here is that I'd like to get the westerns spanish keyboard and at the apple store the guy said it will take 6 days. I was wondering if I do the purchase within the express checkout, Will I be able to get the laptop before leaving NY on the 7th of May 2014?
    I do not have any experience with the express checkout, actually I do know how it works, any advice please?
    Thanks!!!!

    Call the store on the telephne and ask. However, I doubt it since a store would not normally have an item with non-USA features

    i have recently been knocked over whilst carrying my mac book pro, the screen is now damaged and it wont charge at all... would apple replace it ?
    i have tried buying a new charger incase this was the problem, it wasnt, it just wont icharge/turn on at all, im just wondering would apple replace it, as  am a student and need a computer and this is my only one?

    Sorry no Apple will not replace it. What happened was an accident and the Apple warranty does not cover accidental damages.
    So it looks like you will need to buy a new computer or pay to have your Mac fixed.

  • Why do I need to connect my Ipad mini with my Mac Book Pro via iCloud?

    Why do I need to connect my Ipad mini with my Mac Book Pro via iCloud? I don't have iCloud on my MacBook Pro and only intend to use the mini to check e-mail and use Garage Band and Photo Booth for song writing when traveling . . .

    Thanks Community! I solved the problem. In fact it was not a problem but lack of understanding. These guys at Apple are way ahead in thir thinking. I will try to explain as short as I can.
    In Lion, ihe Prefferences/Display show only two choices: 6-7 steps of resolution and some color tab. No two screens, no two display to overlap, nothing for us to do. "That was the problem"! Everything is automatic.
    When I connected the HDMI cable to the Miniport into a T-bolt slot, the TV screen showed the "spiral galaxy" how Zyriab is calling it. In fact he gave me the best clue. That shows the connection is good. But where is the Mac Book image?
    You have to drag it to the right out of the Mac Book display area, and "voila!" it will continue on the TV screen. The same with the mouse pointer, push it out ofthe Mac Book display area and you see it on the TV sreen. Good image, you can keep the max resolution, etc. The sound is still on the Book's speakers. I have to figure that out.
    Thank everybody, especialy Zyriab, ne was the closest.
    High regards to everybody

  • HT3986 what is the risk to install windows 7 on mac book pro?

    what is the risk to install windows 7 on mac book pro?

    If you have back ups and follow apples instructions on using bootcamp assistant to install Win7, there is no risk.
    If you choose not to follow the instructions apple provides and have no back ups well then there is high risk of dissapointment.
    Just follow the instructions and you should be fine.
    Good luck.
    Edit:  Here's a link to the install instructions. Just choose the one for "Lion OSX". Should be the first one on the list.

  • What is the most RAM I can put in mac book pro 15 inch 2.16(2006)?

    What is the most RAM I can put in mac book pro 15 inch 2.16(2006)?

    Depends. There were two version of the MBP that shipped in 2006 with different max RAM. The quickest way to see which is yours is to use System Profiler to get your Mac's "Model Identifier."
    Do "About this Mac" from the Apple menu and, in the resulting window, click "More Info..." That launches System Profler for you.
    The answer is in the first screen of Profiler that comes up--"Hardware Overview." Note the second line in this example:
    If the Model Identifier says "MacBookPro1,X" you are limited to 2G RAM. Period.
    If the Model Identifier says "MacBookPro2,X" you can install two, 2G modules for an installed total of 4G RAM, but the logic board can only access 3.2G of it. That becomes your "max RAM.
    Hope this helps,
    AJ

  • What is the best security lock for a 17" mac book pro?

    Hello Folks! Happy holidays!
    Quick question:
    What is the best security lock for a 17" mac book pro?
    Any models or brands ?
    Cheers!

    Most computers refer to the locking attachment in some relationship to the name "Kensington", and that might be a useful clue.
    Following that, be sure to avoid counterfeit products. A well-known computer vendor (not Apple), was approached by a large purchaser (several tens of thousands of laptops) who insisted on using a counterfeit locking product that had a larger than normal locking tab. The vendor modified the tooling to accept the counterfeit product and, wouldn't you know it, the genuine product would no longer secure the computer properly.

  • When updating to the latest OS X my wife's Mac Book Pro locked at a grey screen with an apple icon and status bar.  Is there any way to recover the data on the laptop and complete the OS install?

    When my wife's Mac Book Pro was being updated to the latest version of OS X the laptop locked up at a grey screen with the Apple icon and status bar.  Is there any way to recover the data and complete the install?  I have not tried anything yet because of the data issue.  I am not sure which OS X version as I did not install the software.

    Used Macs of every description are always available on Ebay and Craigslist and from a plethora of online used-Mac resellers. Apple sells refurbished late-model Macs at 10-20% discounts with a new-computer warranty and the opportunity to extend the warranty with AppleCare.

  • I just downloaded the latest software OS X on my mac book pro, now whenever I start my computer I have to wait for windows mac to open up.  The open at login is not even checked.  How can I stop this from happening?

    I have a Mac Book Pro and downloaded the latest software OS X.  Now whenever I start my computer, I have to wait for Windows Mac to do its thing.  I checked and the "open at login" option is not checked.  How can I turn this feature off?  It's driving me nuts!!

    All fixed Barry.  When I went to restart my computer, the question was right there.  Do you want to open Windows when opening.  NOPE!!
    I tried it a few times and thank goodness it worked.  Thank you for your help today.
    Best,
