Cable/adapter for use of 2007 iMac as a display for 2009 MacBook Pro
I would use my older iMac as a monitor for my MacBook Pro. Want to know which cable and/or adapter I need help.
The iMac is a 24 inch, Intel based since 2007 (6.1). 2 GB, 667 MHZ. It uses iOS 10.5.8. Its port is a Mini-DVI video output.
The MacBook Pro is a 15-inch (5.4) 2009. 4 GB, 1067 MHZ. It uses iOS 10.11.6. Its port is a Mini display port.
Popular Wizard. Thank you.
You must use a wireless or Ethernet connection and configure Virtual Network Computing. A 2007 iMac only supports video-, and cannot function without the standard display cable.

The Sierra of MacOS will propose for the Mid 2009 MacBook Pro in the near future?
I have a model Mid 2009 MacBook Pro and when I try to upgrade the software of OS systems to the Sierra, he refused my request to download because it "cannot be downloaded to this computer." I noticed other Mac computers, for example, iMac Mid 2009 or newer and MacBook Mid 2009 or more recent systems only one are close to mine are candidates to download the software, but the MacBook Pro is the only one that is not on this list for availability. So, my question to my question is, will be available Mid 2009 MacBook Pro updated to day for Sierra anytime soon? And if not, why?
Please let me know what your answer is as soon as possible.
Thank you!
My answer is no.
However, as long as I and everyone here, do not work for Apple, my answer is certainly not authoritative.
However, as I've used Apple computers for more than 30 years, he never had a case when they released an additional OS that works on previously excluded material.

My Macbook Pro Late 2011 very hot especially on the left side. Temperature exceeds the 60 degrees celsius, with only the navigation. Is this a normal behavior? Fans operate at a SPEED of 2000 more or less. I would like the experts to guide...
From what you say, it seems that your MacBook fans work as usual (and unfortunately), and 60ºC is a good temperature for a MacBook Pro, so I don't think that there is nothing wrong with your Mac. Note that the temperature may also depend on what websites visit you and complete what they use. for example, Java and Flash Player increases CPU utilization and the battery, and this, temperature.
In addition, note that your MacBook Pro is made of aluminum, and it can quickly become hot even if you don't do any heavy task. This does not mean that there is nothing wrong with it

A good mouse for a Macbook Pro?
Can anyone recommend a good mouse for a Macbook Pro, so fed up with the Magic mouse connectivity issues.
Microsoft and Logitech do wireless mice that use a small IR dongle. I use one for my office lab because I also have BT connectivity following the intervention of BT problems. The dongle stores neatly in the mouse when not in service, and it is small enough that you could probably keep plugged in all the time on the MBP. Mine is Logitech, it has 4 buttons with wheel acting as a middle-click. It came with software to program additional buttons. Overall, I prefer the Magic Mouse but it's a close.

I can't download a more recent version of the Adobe reader for my MacBook Pro. What can I do?
The menu bar is the line at the top of your Mac screen. Start with an Apple, then the name of the application (such as Safari), then other options such as File, Edit, View.
The message is confusing, because in this case, it means 'you are using Adobe Reader' in this application.
I think that this article can be what you need, let us know... https://helpx.Adobe.com/Acrobat/KB/Safari-8-Mac-OSX-1010-PDF.html
