Buy MacBook

Thinking about buying my senior high school a MacBook for Christmas. He will need to use it throughout the College. Should I wait? The MacBook, I buy today will be obsolete in 5 years?

To be honest, it's hard to say, but an Apple product normally has a much longer life, then other brands. For me, I use a MBP for 5 years and it still works perfectly in my daily professional life.

  • To buy: MacBook 2015 (12 ") vs MacBook Pro 2015 (13')

    I need to replace 2009 15 my daughter "MB Pro.  She is in graduate studies for teaching, the basis of the two models would be my limit of crazy, and they are both sold at the same price.

    Uses would be: Internet research with several tabs open, writing and editing documents of research education, design of bridges in PowerPoint, use it in the classroom for presentations and e-mail.  No weight heavy photo or video editing or game.

    I think it leans more towards the regular MacBook because she loves the new keyboard and it is light.  However, it has concerns about the small size of the screen (to facilitate the edition of research papers, etc.), saw only a single USB port and the apparently much stronger specifications of the Pro.

    Any thought would be appreciated, especially for those who have a first hand experience with both machines.  Thank you!

    I have a Macbook pro 13 "2015 Retina and a Macbook from 2015.  I am a moderate user, usually by e-mail, word processing, spreadsheets, browing web, etc...  The Macbook Pro is my main computer.  I use it at home for personal and professional tasks, and I use it with a Thunderbolt screen so I have a bigger screen.   I travel often and that's when I use the Macbook because of its light weight and smaller profile.  I am very satisfied with these two machines.  Based on my experience and your description of the use, either machine would probably work.  However, if I had to recommend one, it would be the Macbook Pro with the retina display.  It has more capabilities for future use and a number of ports that can be useful in the future.  You should also consider a screen 15 "If your daughter will have several documents open at the same time. I hope this helps.

  • XPS 15z Cypress Trackpad drivers on Windows 10

    Hi all

    even if my XPS Dell 15z has not officially tested for Windows 10 and probably never will be tested, I've upgraded to Windows 10 yesterday.

    Everything seems pretty fine, with the exception of the (still horrible) Cypress Touchpad.
    This is what happened:

    1. after the upgrade is complete, I found that Windows has installed the Synaptics Touchpad drivers.
    2. my trackpad has worked, with the exception of no multi touch gestures.
    3. I uninstalled all drivers, cleaned the files + registry via CCleaner and restarted every time as needed
    4. I installed the drivers that I learned from this post: en.community.dell.com/.../19579806
    5. I checked if two-finger-scroll has been enabled in the driver configuration utility, checked and unchecked the boxes several times
    6. I tried all kinds of other bug fixes for the infamous Cypress Trackpad in Windows 8 pilot and so on

    Overall, nothing is done - in addition to the basic features that the generic driver provides also, I have absolutely no gestures of support. Just the driver doesn't seem to work at all, despite running in the background.

    There seems to be similar problems with the Synaptics drivers, just that there seems to be some bugs for her.

    I have absolutely no hope that Dell will come out a driver halfway decent for this piece of junk they call a trackpad, but perhaps that other users have an idea on how to solve this problem.

    Greetings

    Chris

    PS: I didn't forget, support and usability of this missing trackpad is the main reason stopping me to buy any product Dell anytime soon. It's the kind of thing, what makes people buy MacBooks.

  • How can I install Mac Creative Suite 5.5 on Windows 8 w / no CD slot?

    In College, we were roped into buying MacBook for our courses. We were given to Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 and I remember very well the computer scientist tells us that she had the ability to operate on an Apple product and a Windows product. Now that I don't have my Macbook and I use a new laptop Windows 8 with no location for a drive, how do you install the creative suite? Has been the it guy just pulling my chain? I'd love to not have not not just unused software.

    Normally when you bought a Creative Suite license is good for one platform or the other, but not both.  Although you may have had some special license for school agreement.

    If you want to take a shot at it... You can download the trial version of the software through the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.

    Don't forget to follow the steps described in the Note: very important Instructions in the section on the pages of this site download and have cookies turned on in your browser, otherwise the download will not work correctly.

  • 11 PE supports AVCHD on Mac files?

    Hello

    I am looking to buy Macbook pro friend (2009)

    He is letting me borrow to see if this will work for my video editing.

    Hey well yesterday when I was messing around with it, I discovered that my new Sony handycam records AVCHD files. Mac does not support the AVCHD video playback brute.

    I would like to change the EP 11 but I don't know if the EP 11 Supports AVCHD files.

    11 PE does support AVCHD files? And if she supports AVCHD files, it will support them even if the mac does not support playback?

    Is it still useful editing on mac is having to go through the conversion of files? Should I just stick with 11 PE on a PC?

    And also some of the secondary issues,

    How can I play mac files?

    What is the main difference between first elements and Premiere Pro? Thanks in advance!

    On my iMac (2010), I use 11 items to edit AVCHD video. It's a Sony Handycam to the 1080i format.

    Format of the reading mts components.

    Of course, it works the same way on my second install on a Windows 7 laptop.

    When I want to read only my clips on my Mac, I use VLC without problem. If you want to change on other Mac software,

    for example, iMovie, you must convert the mts file. I converted a video to mp4, for tests with iMovie or reading

    with Quicktime. I used the brake hand or avidemux on Mac environment to perform this conversion (don't remember which).

    On the differences between the elements and Premiere Pro, Pro is a standard of video editing for years, it has many functions.

    For example, you can do blocking edit easily.

    Elements is, in my opinion, a good tool and version 11 has a less "professional" only pro user interface.

    The important difference is of course the price between a professional tool and a simple one user.

  • Clutching my Upgrade CS6 downloaded onto a DVD-R?

    I'm so happy that Adobe did not create a download version of the CS6 file install .dmg for my Mac OSX Lion file just big enough so it would not fit on a standard DVD-R!  My method to get around this was to zip the .dmg file and then burn it to a DVD-R.  He's still barely!  Now, I have a back-up system for my readers and I guess I could always recover like that but why Adobe Creative installation of files bigger than we can create a back-up copy for?  Very annoyed.  Also, if I reinstall the file .dmg, I understand that I have to put the file in the same directory I initially installed it since...  What happens if I don't know what directory I used to install it since?  Nonsense!

    In addition, I have two .dmg files which were considered as additional content...  What they contained were files of fonts...  Without direction on what I'm supposed to do with these fonts?  How to install?  Where can I find in my Apps CS6?

    Another annoyance, that's why the Classroom In A Book Series are always a month AFTER we have the new version?  What are we supposed to do without instructions on the use of their products!  Something Adobe is pretty bad subject (and has always been that way).

    I guess I'm just a little frustrated with the steps I had to take in order to get an upgrade of the CS6 Web design with NO possibility of a box/hard copy of Web Design CS6 software version.

    Just a suggestion. As software continuously grows, you should probably run into this more. An alternative is to back up your software for a cloud like Dropbox service. (Plus, you'll now buy MacBook Air computers and eventually the new versions of the MacBook Pro without DVD players.)

    Font files must be installed on a Mac in Library/Fonts or/Library/Fonts like any other police. This is an optional installation.

    Classroom in a book is written by outsiders who write most of the copy after the liberation, most books were longer than other media production time. I look for alternatives such as the Adobe TV videos that are free, or videos from Lynda.com. These are generally released at the time of distribution of the product.

  • What are the normal batteries fresh cycle when buying a used macbook pro

    Hello

    Looking to buy a macbook pro 2014, battery life is important enough and the machine, that I'm looking seems really well taken care of but the battery charge cycle is 300. Is this ok or normal? I don't like the idea that it is a third of the used way!

    Regardless of the number of cycles a battery has gone through, replace the battery with five years of service.  Age is a factor in the health of a lithium-ion battery.

    Assuming a battery will last in its setting of 1000 cycles design (most don't) suggests that 200 cycles per year would be realistic.  The MBP you are considering have 300 cycles seems to be quite normal given his age.  I wouldn't worry.

    Ciao.

  • What happens if I buy a macbook, then they release the new model?

    I went into my local Apple store and they asked me where I needed my computer by because they have an event 7. Now I need to buy my computer before then (I also want to free beats since I was a student). However, what happens if they release a new macbook right after that I have to buy mine? I think that the person in the store says that if you buy within 60 days of a new version they'll move your model to the newest one. Is this true? Also if this is how it works with online shopping, is 60 days since you ordered online or 60 days because you have actually received your macbook? (I assume that since you place your order)

    Thanks for your help!

    What happens if you buy a car or a TV, or other technology and then a few days later a new model comes out?

    You always bought what you paid for.  There may be exchange for privileges, or you may be able to sell your privately purchased item and then buy a new one.  Or you can be very happy with your purchase and keep and enjoy.

    In the case of the MacBook, if you buy a new computer running El Capitan, you will certainly be able to upgrade to MacOS Sierra once that came out later in the fall.

    If you can wait and explore the unknown, with unknown characteristics and an unknown release date, or you can buy a known quantity as soon as possible.

  • I think to buy a new MacBook to replace my MacBook pro mid-2010, which still runs but becomes slow.  They say the current MacBook pro without retina display (which I don't think I need) is an old system and may be obsolete soon - true?

    I'm buying a new MacBook to replace my mid-2010 MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel core 2 duo, 4 GB of memory, which always runs, but becomes slow.   I don't think I need retina display (if I have a lot of photos and films on the subject), but I was told that the MacBook Pro without screen retina was an old system that Apple could not support much longer. Is this true?

    Apple only can answer such a question, and the terms of use for these forums discourage us discuss what Apple plans to do.

    I too have a MBP 2010.  I installed an SSD and that increased performance.  Consider that as an option.

    You may experience other problems that slows down your MBP.  Before commit you the important cash for a new MBP, examine the potential software problems that may be responsible for the poor performance.  With the SSD, my 2010 works better than the day he came out of the box.

    where can I buy all new macbook pro MD102 i7, 8 GB, 750 GB hardrive here in the UNITED Arab Emirates?

    Apple doesn't sell spare parts for consumers (there is a supply chain for the Apple authorized service providers)

    BUT - if I read carefully, you can ask where to buy a MacbookPro specific instead of JUST the "hard drive"?
