  • What software do I need to install to play some games MacBook Pro Mid 2014

    Hello, what software do I need to install to play some games - MacBook Pro Mid 2014. Games like : Alan Wake, Assassin's Creed, Boarderlands 2, FarCry series, Crysis, etc.

    Assassin’s creed II and Borderlands 2 are in the Mac App Store.
    The other’s don’t appear to be ported to OS X. You’d have to install Windows in one of the various ways, Bootcamp (native boot) or Virtualization (VMWare, Parallels, VirtualBox). Games under Virtualization probably don’t run well.

  • After sleep, retina MacBook Pro (Mid 2014) does not recognize usb connected mouse movement

    After sleep, retina MacBook Pro (Mid 2014, on 10.9.4) does not recognize usb connected mouse movement. I have tried a generic usb mouse and my Razer Deathadder usb mouse. Both mice work before sleep; but after sleep, the computer no longer recognizes mouse movement while still recognizing the mouse buttons when pressed. Any idea why this is occurring?

  • MacBook Pro Mid 2014 shut off randomly and won't turn back on.

    Hello,
    My MacBook Pro(Mid 2014) won't turn back on. I was just typing up my essay and it just turned straight off and won't turn back on. It has happen several times before and all I had to do was press the buttons(SMC method) and the PVRAM thing and it would turn back on. But now it doesn't turn on at all. How do I fix this issue? I had went today to the Apple Store and had a appointment at 3:15-3:25 and I was late by 2 minutes, so they couldn't help me and offered me to come back at 5PM, but will busy so I asked for 5 Monday. Does anyone know what the problem might be? Back when it was operating it would shut off whenever I was using it at the random times. This is my first MacBook so I don't know if it's suppose to get Hot and loud sometimes when operating and then cool off afterwards if that helps out. It shutoff last week wednesday and doesn't turn on at all, but will charge to fully green though. Anyone got any suggestions? I do have a MacBook screwdriver to open it, so if anyone knows anything about the inside and how to resolve the issue it would be great. I don't know how to remove the battery so if you do know please tell me or some keyboard trick would be helpful!   All my data is on this so I would like to solve before Apple erases my data.

  • Why won't movies in buttons play in extras section?

    Hello everyone,
    I'm working on a project where there is a button (play Movie) that has a moving clip in, and this is ok. However, I've created an extras section with a couple of short movies in there. Although I can see the info box asking me where I want the movie to play from, it doesn't work. I only get a still image.
    I've read the help menu over and over, but I can't see what I'm missing. Can anybody help? Thanks.

    Just got view options open.  That didn't help.

  • Why won't my Apple keyboard pair with my Macbook Pro?  Everything's discoverable...the light is blinking...the Macbook pro picks up other bluetooth...It's not paired with anything else?

    Hello,
    My wireless keyboard was paired with my iPad for a while, with no problem. Today I've unpaired it and tried to add it to my MBP (which I've done plenty of times in the past with sucess) but it's just not discovering it today.
    Bluetooth is on, my laptop is discoverable
    The MBP is picking up my phone, the iPad can see the MBP
    The keyboard is turned on and blinking
    Whether I try to 'set up new bluetooth keyboard' from Sys Preferences or 'set up bluetooth device' from Bluetooth menu, nothing happens.
    Any ideas?
    I've tried removing batteries, retarting the laptop..... Why should I try next?
    Thanks in advance everyone

    1. Go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn off Bluetooth on the device.
    2. Hold Power button of your keyboard until the light stops blinking.
    3. On the Mac, go to System Preferences > Keyboard > Set Up Bluetooth Keyboard.
    4. Turn on the keyboard. If it doesn't connect to the Mac, press any key of the wireless keyboard.
    5. When the keyboard appears on your Mac, choose Continue

  • Why won't my HP printer work on my MacBook Pro? Help!

    I have been trying to get my scanner to work on my HP Photosmart 4385 All-in-one printer but it hasn't worked for a while. I googled some possible answers and found that apple has updated software (HP installer) with the drivers for my version of I OS x 10.6+ operating system. I downloaded the software, installed in - following the directions provided. When I try to print from word, it says in can't find my printer. I have a wireless connection, and I also have a cable. I went into Preferences, clicked on printer/fax, and I can see my printer there. I clicked on it and asked it to open my scanner software, but it says it cannot locate my printer - but I see it listed. Can anyone help or give advice?
    Thanks!

    After you installed the drivers did you repair permissions and restarted your computer?

    My pro recognizes my phone, and each share the correct code, however my phone rejects my pro when I try to pair them…very frustrating!

    The usb plugin method is still the correct one to use to transfer photos.

  • Why won't OS X Mavericks download on my MacBook Pro?

    I'm having trouble downloading OS X Mavericks on my new MacBook Pro. Can anyone help me out?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If you have got a Late 2013 MacBook Pro, the OS X Mavericks version available in the Mac App Store is not compatible with your Mac, so you cannot download OS X Mavericks. Until your Mac uses the same Mavericks version as all other Macs, you will not be able to download OS X Mavericks from the Mac App Store.
    You can reinstall OS X through OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

  • Mac Won't Boot after Boot Camp Windows Update - Macbook Pro Mid 2010

    Hello All, and thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.
    I have a Mid 2010 Macbook Pro. Last year I upgraded the RAM, then this year I decided to upgrade the hard drive to an SSD-hybrid. Everything went perfectly smoothly with both upgrades, and I was a happy camper.
    I had also installed Boot Camp with Windows 7 and everything worked perfectly. Then last night, I boot in to Windows 7 and it gives me a 'service pack update'. After installing it, I had to reboot my computer. Rebooted it and it accidently started booting OSX. No problem, I thought. I held down the power button, and booted back in to Windows. The service pack installation continued and it had me restart my computer an obscene amount of times during the installation. This is when I initially thought "this is weird".
    Finally the service pack installs, and I'm able to use Windows 7 again. Then I shut down the machine and tried to boot back into OSX. No dice.
    Here's how the OSX booting process goes:
    First, the Apple logo appears, then what appears to be a progressive loading bar at the bottom. After a few seconds, the loading bar disappears. Then it's just at the Apple booting screen with the spinning wheel/gear and sits there indefinitiely. I let it sit there for over an hour last night and nothing happened.
    Any suggestions? I tried resetting the NVRAM and the SMC.
    Thanks so much,
    dlevv

    It looks like a hard disk problem. Press Command and R keys on boot, open Disk Utility, select Macintosh HD in the sidebar and repair your drive

    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup

  • Hi! I got movies on my external hard drive that are AVI kind and won't play on my macbook pro? need some help please!!

    Hi! I got Movies on my external hard drive that are AVI kind and won't play on my macbook pro? When I start playing the movie a message pops up and says "a required codec is not available". I tried flip4mac, xvid, divx already and still not playing my video. need some help please!! thanks.

    Although vlc mentioned above is a much more powerful and better player you could try installing Perian if you insist on using the quicktime player.  It may supply the codec it needs.
    Not sure why you wouldn't be able to play straight avi files though in quicktime.
