Google Chrome tends to use more energy on MacBook Pro?
I use Safari and Mozilla Firefox, but I wanted to see if Google Chrome is a good browser to be used on the MacBook Pro. The Chrome browser uses a lot more power compared to the other 2?
Yes, Chrome is notoriously inefficient. Recent versions have become better, but are even less effective than Safari.
This is an old link, but you can Google for more info to date on this issue.

Why can't I access a book that I just bought my iPhone using iBooks on my MacBook Pro using iBooks?
Perhaps one of the main reasons is that the Apple ID, I used on my iPhone is different from the AppleID that I use on my MacBook Pro.
But when I went to add that Apple ID for my 'family' I get the message that the 2nd "" Apple ID is already part of the family.
Any ideas how to make this happen?
Steve
You need to get them on the same Apple ID choose one registered with the family and change it on the computer or device that has different ID.

Need advice. Weather a small wacom tablet will be adequate for photography using photoshop, or should I buy way. I want to use with the 13 "macbook pro
If you carry your computer in a bag that is made for a 13 "laptop, the small tablet will fit as well. I have done this and found the small tablet to work properly. However, I found a screen 13 inches of being terribly cramped for using Photoshop.

Google Chrome (Dev channel) using the old version of Adobe Flash Player
Hi all
I hope this isn't a stupid question. I was wondering if anyone else is having the same problem regarding the browser Google Chrome Dev (Version 45.0.2438.3 dev - m (64 bit)) using an old version of Flash Player? Here are the details from the Plugins page. I have 18.0.0.205 beta installed (by ActiveX, NPAPI, PPAPI) However, these are the versions of 32-bit. Chrome will not give me access to any other plugin for flash player other than what is shown below. As far as I know the latest public version of the Chrome browser is 18.0.0.203?

There the stand-alone installers for 64-bit flash players, because I have not met one of these? Not sure if Chrome doesn't is more pick up these plugins being installed because of this be a later version of the channel dev, or be a 64 bit version now. Thank you in advance for any input.
Kind regards

Solution for Google Chrome (Helper) by using a lot of ram and cpu on mac os x
Hi all
Some people have several tabs of google chrome, and it's using a lot of RAM. It also causes the fan go crazy sometimes. I looked for a solution for centuries, but no solution has allowed, until I stumbled upon the simple solution to use a google chrome extension that hibernates unused tabs. The problem has now completely disappeared.
There are a few different extensions that Hibernate unused tabs, but the only extension which has enough options setting to do what I want, is called "The Great Suspender".
You can set the time, after which the Hibernate (sleep) tab. The tab automatically resumes when it focuses on, (i.e., you don't need to then also click on a specific button). And the tabs of the extended day before will remain in hibernation after you restart the computer.
There are many other parameters that can be changed. (After you have made changes, don't forget to click the 'save changes' button.)
I hope this helps.
Thanks for the tip.

It is possible (and useful) to upgrade my Macbook Pro 2011 (early)?
My Macbook Pro 2011 (start) 13 "has served me very well. I took the approach to resist many updates over the past 1.5 years).
However, in the last 6 weeks, it really began to slow down. I'm not too keen on the storage in the Macbook Pro 2015 options so not sure I want to buy immediately. I have never tried to upgrade the macbook - so I don't know how easy/possible/useful it is to do. Here is my card... can someone tell me if this can be improved and if so, if she's worth ($-wise)?
Intel Core i7 2.7 GHz
4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Intel HD Graphics 3000 384
Free GB 498 296 GB
Contains 2 memory slots, which each accept a DDR3 1333 MHz memory bar. Each unit already has 2 GB.
No game - I use it mainly for work (freelance marketing/communication - writing, presentations, artistic director) and the House (photos/home movies, internet, backup of the device).
Slow down especially occurs in switching between programs, using products MS - sometimes opening and closing old/new docs. Internet connectivity usually ok but slow switching between windows in Safari.
Any suggestions, help would be very appreciated. I want to take a decision quickly before it begins to die.
