For the iMac, it is included, but he really loves * that the Mac Pro has this old crush which is very pixelated to 82ppi, compared to the iMac not expensive 21.5 "without Retina display, it is equal to 102ppi. My iMac 27 "is 5K also, and the iMac is 218ppi. I want a high resolution to get the best view possible, but I can't in the Mac Pro. I would like also to the screen have a built-in webcam and speakers similarly.

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

How can I upgrade (where to buy) the SSD storage for my macbook pro retina 15 "?
I currently have 256GB on my mac, which is far from enough. as far as I know, the macbook pro get a SSD sata-m and I would buy more. I can buy it on the Apple site?
Apple does not sell any upgrade to the MacBook Pro retina. If you want to upgrade the internal memory, the connector is not standard m-SATA so your options are limited. One of the few places improvements are available is MacSales.com, who is a seller very good reputation (I bought many improvements to them):
OWC SSD Flash storage upgrades - MacBook Pro with the retina 13 "& 15" 2012 - beginning 2013
On this page, you'll see also that they sell a pen, so that you can use the drive out you of your Mac as an external drive.

How would I do that?
Thank you!

You can use old iMac as a monitor for mini Mac
You can use 2008 iMac as a monitor for mini Mac?
No, because the iMac of 2008 not display entered or supported to do so.
See > use your iMac as a display with the target - Apple Support Display Mode
You can use a connection network and something like ScreenRecycler
See > https://www.screenrecycler.com/ScreenRecycler.html
However, the best bet is to use a regular external monitor with the Mac Mini.

My old computer which does not has RAM 1.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR @ 106 MHz (2, 5-3-3-7), while the anther computer, I bought recently has RAM DDR 400/128 bits. Can I use the old memory of the computer for the newly purchased computer. Are they compatible? Thank you
Hello nonmae,.
You must use DDR 400/128 bit RAM in your system. @ 106 Mhz DDR is quite old. It's also much slower than the DDR 400. RAM is not particularly expensive today and it is always best to stick to that suggests your PC user manual.
You must use the same speed too, if you use a lower speed, the memory of your PC by default at the lowest speed, thus slowing the PC

can I use 4 monito in windows 7 computer for tense office
can I use 4 monito in windows 7 computer for tense office
Your terms "Extended Desktop" are ambiguous, as you have not provided sufficient details with your question.
The correct terminology is "Desktop Extension" or "Desktop covering. It is important to note that these are two things a little different. Fully answer your question, it is necessary to describe the differences.
Others that by activating the special modes provided by the specific video drivers on the special cards, Windows 7 does not support Desktop covering. The WDDM (Windows Display Driver Model) for Windows 7 does not have The Extension Office.
The Extension Office differs from Office covering that with Extenstion Desktop games will not mode "full screen" on all screens. Also, you will see the taskbar on only one of the monitors, and will maximize demand for only the full monitor on which it resides when you press the expand button. However, it is possible to resize a window on multiple monitors. Also, it hosts capabilities and monitors of different resolutions.
Apart from the games and their preferences for the maximization of the app, Desktop Extension is very useful.
According to me, is it possible to use The Extension Office - a collection of video equipment - extend your Windows 7 Desktop in any number of monitors, although I have only used it with two monitors myself.
-Christmas
P.S. on the chances that your question is about a desktop image stretching on several monitors: Yes, you can do it. Create a desktop image that is the size, in pixels, of the horizontal and vertical of the desktop space, and select 'Tile' mode when you set the background.
