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

Why won't my iPhone 5 connect to my macbook pro 13 over bluetooth?
I downloaded the iKeyboardRemote app on my mac so i can control my phone across the room. The two both have bluetooth on and show up as recognized on both devices. I have paired them and all. The problem is they say disconnected so on my phone i press the bar that says "macbook pro" and my mac shows the two connect for a second but then i get a message on my phone saying "connection unseccesful, make sure "macbook pro" is turned on and in range" they both are turn on and sitting next to eachother, so why am i getting this error message?
Thankshttp://www.invictus.com.tw/en/products/iKeyboardRemote.html

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 everyone1. 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?

Why won't OS X Mavericks start downloading when I click the download button? It thinks and acts like it starts downloading with the thinking circle moving then stops and goes away. I have tried going to the purchases in the app store and restarting it there and that is not working either.
Repair permissions, restart your computer & try again.

HT1657 Why won't the bought and downloaded films play?
Why won't the bought and downloaded films play?
It won't let me download iOS 7. When I check for software updates it says that it is up to date. I also went to iTunes to delete the songs from the iPod, but now it isn't even recognizing any devices. I even uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it to my computer. LOL I am sure it is something small, but I don't have the patience for it now. Maybe I should step away from the computer and come back in a little bit... Thank you for the advice though! Keep it coming! I know it is hard to diagnose over the internet, but any ideas help!

HT1689 why won't my ipad 1 download entire purchased tv episodes
Why won't my ipad 1 download an entire purchased tv episode?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer. -
Why won't my iPad mini download music or video's? I click the download button and it will say its downloading. Then once finished it will just disappear? How can I fix this problem?!?!
Are you using the same apple ID and password?
it seems all is in order, but perhaps the password isn't valid.
if the reset didn't work, try signing out of iTunes and App Store, then back in.
have you tried going to App Store - purchased and tapping on the cloud icon for the apps you want? You will still be asked for your password. -
If I download Maverick on a 17" Macbook pro i-core 7 thats 3.5 years old Will it still sync with my i-Pad that was purchased on 11/30/2010
with Serial# GB*******Z38?
<Edited by Host>I am having this EXACT SAME ISSUE.
I had just sent in my MacBook Pro 1,2 for repairs, and Depot replaced my Main Logic Board. Windows and my x1600 worked before the repair. It makes perfect sense that a replacement of the logic board would throw stuff off like this; however, I don't see why this is an error of such a grandeur.
Now, to my dismay, my ATi x1600 doesn't want to work in Windows: It's a driver issue that I, quite franky, feel that Apple doesn't care about. I took it to a 'Genius' Bar, and they told me the usual, « It's Boot Camp, we don't support the drivers. »
The only way to get it to "work" is if I disable all hardware acceleration, thus disabling DirectX: That means no games, no Adobe Premier, and no software that I use for my school.
Pfft, I'm sending my computer back for the 3rd time within two months ... I doubt they're going to do anything ... -

First... Check here to see if your Mac is compatible...
http://www.apple.com/osx/how-to-upgrade/
If so... would recommend at least 4GB of RAM... if not 8 GB
It is important to get the Correct and Matching RAM
See Here > OWC RAM > http://www.macsales.com
The above site also has videos on how to Install RAM should you need it...
Also... Check here for compatibility of 3rd party Software you may be using...

The RAW files I just downloaded on new MacBook Pro are designated as JPEG in the photo info box. Why??
How did you download? Have you been using the Import panel?
How is the pop-up selector for the "Raw+Jpeg" set?
If you are importing raw+jpeg pairs, and you set this to (Use Jpeg as original), then you will see a little J on the thumbnail, otherwise a R.
Or did ou import with Jpeg only? -

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Or you can use your Apple ID to register with this site and go the Apple BugReporter. Supposedly you will get an answer if you submit feedback.
