  I was looking for a straight answer to this question. I am a new Mac user (Woo hoo) and I need to transfer my files from a PC to my new Macbook pro. Which is the best ethernet adapter (if this is important) do so... a USB adapter or the adapter thunderbolt?

  I thought I read that love at first sight was the fastest, but then I read that I might have a question of transfer to a PC.

  Thanks in advance!

• MacBook Pro warmer with ethernet

  I just tried with (instead of WiFi) ethernet cable to the internet on my MacBook Pro so that I can download large files without interruption. I noticed that whenever I do that, my MacBook is significantly warmer. Not as bad as if I had to play a video game on steam, but much hotter it is usual rest temperature. Why would the cause of ethernet a higher temperature, and is there anything I can do to make it work in a more normal temperature when you use ethernet?

  I have the laptop on a hard, smooth surface, connected. No direct light from the Sun hitting the computer. MacBook Pro, mid-2012, 13 ". El Capitan running.

  Hello

  Your MacBook is going to be heated for various reasons. Your disk reading and writing at a fast pace is perhaps one of them, including bringing data quickly on ethernet. This is perfectly normal and nothing to worry. I got myself a MacBook Pro 13 "2015 and it becomes often warm, but it's common with computers. Unless your computer is showing signs of slowing down or crashing, then the there's nothing to worry about.

• What is a substitute for the migration assistant? I tried in vain for three hours to migrate files from a macbook pro to each other so that even if connected with the ethernet cable the computers never see each other.

  What is a substitute for the migration assistant? I tried in vain for three hours to migrate files from a macbook pro to each other so that even if connected with the ethernet cable the computers never see each other.

  You can connect otherwise?  USB or FireWire or love at first sight?  You can connect both machines and start the one you want to transfer to target disk mode.  If your other machine is up and running with an account on it and you just want to move files, you can simply drag and drop the FRO the machine mounted TDM, or you can use the migration wizard.

  Or, if the other machine still starts and runs, you can start both computers and connect to the same wifi network and share the hard drive like machines on the network.  Access them in the finder on the new machine files and drag-and - drop, or use the wizard migration, on wifi.

  I just bought a macbook pro 13 ", however it has no ethernet port, have I need to buy a device of air port and what one do need me?

  Your MacBook Pro has built in WiFi.

  Wi - Fi

  802.11ac wireless Wi - Fi network; IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n compatible

  It is the best way to connect. You will need a router if you don't already have one.

  If you want to use ethernet wire you can use this cable. ter http://www.apple.com/shop/product/MD463LL/A/thunderbolt-to-gigabit-ethernet-adap? fnode = 8 b See the following link for more useful information if you are new to Mac.

• How can I transfer the mail, Safari, iTunes, etc of my 2008 MacBook running OS 10.5.8, a new MacBook Pro (with Ethernet port) or a new MacBook Air?

  I replace my 2008 Macbook which maxed out at OS 10.5.8, with a new MacBook Pro or MacBook Air.  The Pro has an Ethernet port, the Air is not.  I want to transfer all the data from my application (mail, Safari, iTunes, etc.) for the new Macbook that will run El Capitan.  How can I do?

  What machine you're leaning towards? With Air, you have to use ether WIFI or have the old drive on an external drive configuration. With a new Macbook Pro, the simplest method is to use the migration assistant. Access your Macbook in public services and to see, there you have it. Here is a link to what you can do.  http://pondini.org/OSX/SetupLion.html It is said Lion, but it applies the same. Here's what apple says.  https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT204350 you should know that some of the apps in Leopard will be obsolete in El Captian. There you transfer, it can cause problems. I use the thinking that if I can replace it with a download I do this. The transfer or, if there is an update for it.

• My new work MacBook Air with my WD MyCloud mirror? He is currently working with my old MacBook Pro.

  I'm about to upgrade my MacBook Pro 7.1 (13-inch mid-2010 with OS X EL Capitan), a MacBook Air. I currently use a WD MyCloud mirror for the back upward. I'm afraid that my cloud mirror will not work with my new MacBook Pro? Can you tell me if they will be compatible?

  If you use OS X El Capitan on your MacBook Pro MacBook Air will have the same OS X so I see no reason why he would not compatible. If you connect to it via an ethernet cable from the Pro and you want to do the same thing with Air, you will need to buy a NIC for Air

  Hi e.a.snell, this is a very common scam. You can report it to http://www.apple.com/legal/more-resources/phishing/

  Once someone has physical access to your computer, they can access all of your information and leave a malicious software they like on your system.

  The only thing to do after what happens is to reformat the hard drive and reinstall OS X.

  First make a copy of your data.

  Then start command + option + r choose utility disk and erase the entire hard drive (top icon). Now, to partition your disk, you must create at least a partition for Mac OS X, which should be formatted for OS X Extended, partition scheme GUID that is the default value.  Make sure that you are connected to the internet via Wi - Fi or ethernet.

  We'll put the original OS that computer comes with. After putting in place, you can upgrade. After he finished the installation, it will restart and put you Assistant settings. Once you set up your accounts, you can connect to the AppStore and OS X update to the latest version of so that your Mac meets the system specification...

  Old Macs

  First make a copy of your current hard drive, unless you have a recent backup.

  You will need your original installation to the next DVD.

  Boot from the installation DVD. Choose the drive that you want to delete in disk utility and click on the above icon, which represents the entire disk. Press erase the drive.

  Then, your DVD, install you the original OS and from there proceed to 10.6.8.

  EDIT: Also change your Apple ID.

• My Macbook Pro does'nt connect after update to 10.11.6

  Hi all.

  After update from my Macbook Pro to 10.11.6 he starts, but after entering my password, then pressing enter shows the loading animation and it is.  I let him go lastnight believe he worked at something after the update, but this morning, nothing...

  An advise, please.

  Kind regards

  Fabio

  Please take each of these steps that you have not already tried it. Some of them are not applicable to your model or your situation. Stop when the problem is resolved.

  To restart a computer is not responding, press and hold the power button for a few seconds until the unit turns off, then release, wait a few seconds and press again briefly.

  Step 1

  The first step to respond to a startup failure is to secure data. If you want to keep the contents of the boot drive and you have not already at least a current backup, you should try to back up now, before we do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care the data changed since the last backup, you can skip this step.

  There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to boot. You need an external hard drive to store backup data.

  a. starting the partition recovery or an hour Local Machine backup volume (button option key at startup). When the OS X Utilities appears, launch disk utility and follow the instructions in this article to support. You'll be 'restoration' the boot on the backup volume volume.

  If you use 2 FileVault, you must first unlock the boot volume. Select its icon ("Macintosh HD", unless you have given it a different name.) It will be nested under another icon of the disc. Select open in the file menu. When you are prompted, enter your login password.

  (b) If step 1 fails due to disk errors, and no other Mac is available, then you may be able to save some of your files by copying them in the Finder. If you already have an external hard drive with OS X installed, the start of it. Otherwise, if you have access to the Internet, follow the instructions on this page to prepare the external hard drive and install OS X on it. You will use the installation program of recovery, rather than download it from the App Store.

  c. If you have access to a Mac, and it work and have both the non-working Mac FireWire ports or stroke, start the Mac non-working in target disk mode. Work Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique will not work with USB, Ethernet, Wi - Fi or Bluetooth.

  d. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is replaceable by the user, remove it and climb into a docking station that is pregnant or an external drive. Use another Mac to copy the data.

  Step 2

  If you have booted from an external drive, make sure that the internal boot volume is selected in the pane of the system preferences Startup disk.

  Start in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. If you do not see the words "Safe Boot" in the start screen, you did not start in safe mode. Ask for additional instructions.

  Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, and some things don't work at all, including the networks without wire on some Macs.

  The login screen is displayed even if you normally connect automatically. You must know the password for the connection to connect. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

  If the startup progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or the system stops automatically when the progress bar appears, the boot volume is corrupted and the player is probably defective. In this case, go to step 9. If you have another problem with the player, replace it immediately.

  If you can start and log in in safe mode, empty the trash and then open the window of info on the boot volume ("Macintosh HD", unless you have given it a different name.) Make sure you have at least 9 GB of space available, as shown in the window. If you do not, copy as many files as necessary on another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion is not complete until you empty the trash again. This, until the space is more than 9 GB. Then restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)

  If the boot process hangs again, the problem is probably caused by third-party software you have installed. Ask for additional instructions.

  Step 3

  If the startup process stops at a gray screen together with a mobile cursor, then the logon dialog box may be active but not visible because of a bug. You may be able to connect by using the arrow keys or the cursor to select the password field and type your password as usual.

  Step 4

  Case of failure of step 3, the boot volume can be complete. If you saw previously implemented guard space drive is low, it is certainly the case. You might be able to start in safe mode , even if you cannot boot normally. Otherwise, boot from an external hard drive, or well technology for step 1b, 1 c or 1 d allows to mount the internal drive and delete some files. According to the documentation from Apple, you need at least 9 GB of free space on the boot (as shown in the Infolog) for normal operation volume.

  Step 5

  If a Mac desktop (without the built-in keyboard) crashes on a gray screen together with a mobile cursor, the keyboard may not be recognized. Hold down the button on the side of a wireless Apple keyboard to make it discoverable. If need be, replace or recharge the batteries. If you use a USB keyboard connected to a hub, connect it to a built-in port.

  Step 6

  Sometimes, a startup failure can be solved by resetting the NVRAM.

  Step 7

  If there is an integrated optical drive, a disk may be stuck in there. Follow these instructions to remove it.

  Step 8

  Press and hold the power button until the unit turns off. Disconnect all devices wired except those needed to start and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use another keyboard and/or mouse, if these devices are wired. If you can start now, one of the devices that you disconnected, or a combination of both, the origin of the problem. Discover that it is a process of elimination.

  Step 9

  Launch the utility disk in recovery mode (see step 1). Select the boot volume, and then run the repair disk. If problems are found, repeat until that clear. If disk utility reports that the volume is not repairable, the drive is defective and must be replaced. You can choose to tolerate such malfunction in the reader's life. In this case, delete the volume and restore it from a backup. If the same thing happens again, replace the drive immediately.

  It is one of the rare situations where you must also run repair permissions, ignoring the erroneous warnings, that it can produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then restart as usual.

  Step 10

  If the boot device is an aftermarket SSD, it may have an update and/or a forced "garbage collection". Instructions how to do this with a Crucial SSD of brand have been posted here. Some of these instructions may apply to other brands of SSDS, but you should check with the technical support of the provider.

  Step 11

  Reinstall the OS. If the Mac has upgraded an earlier version of Mac OS X, you need the Apple ID and password used to upgrade.

  Step 12

  Do as in step 11, but this time clear the disk utility boot volume before installing. The system should automatically restart in The Migration Wizard. Follow the prompts to transfer data from one Time Machine or another backup.

  Step 13

  This step applies only to models that have a battery logic-board ("PRAM"): all of the Mac Pro, MacBook with a removable main battery and a few others (models not updated). A flat battery logic-board may cause a boot failure. In general the failure will be preceded by the loss of the system and boot disk clock settings. Refer to the user manual for replacement instructions. You may need to take the machine to a provider of services to have to replace the battery.

  Step 14

  If you get this far, you probably deal a hardware failure. An appointment of 'Genius' to an Apple Store, or select another authorized service provider.
