• How to connect a macbook pro retina to an external VGA monitor

  I have a MacBook Pro of the retina on OS X El Capitan 10.11.3 running. Previously, I could connect a previous MacBook Pro (late 2009) to an external VGA monitor. I was told on the Apple store I could use the mini display in a Flash port dongle to connect to a VGA cable, but when I tried this, the monitor could not get a signal. Is there another dongle I should use? I have a HDMI cable which I assume will work with most modern projectors, but I really want to go to this old VGA monitor for editing in iMovie.

• How to save the MacBook Pro Photo library

  I am eager to help a friend to back up its Photo library of his MacBook Pro on a USB key. The Mac will be erased once the process is complete. Can someone give me a step by step guide how to keep safe all the photos of his library is supported if she can transfer it to a new Mac?

  One option would be to use the Google Photos. You can download the Google Photos to your MacBook Pro and iPhone app, and it backs up all the photos. Don't have free unlimited storage so no need to worry about losing all of them.

• How well Apple replaces Macbook Pro parts?

  Hello world

  So, Apple has said that they will replace the entire display on my Macbook Pro 2015 with the retina because sometimes they webcam is not recognized, and they think that it might be loose thread in the view. However, for some reason, I'm a little paranoid as a unit, my Macbook will not work as well as it was before the repair. I was wondering how your experiences with Apple repairs were.

  Thanks in advance.

• How to get the MacBook Pro 10.8 to connect to LaserJet P1006 shared by Vista-based computer

  HP Laserjet P1006 have connected via USB cable to the computer Windows Vista (SP2).

  Prints fine in the windows box.

  In vista, windows shares.

  Try to connect the printer to a Macbook Pro 10.8.

  HP1006 drivers downloaded from the HP website.

  Tried to connect via SMB, as many websites has loaded. (Using the Advanced tab and selecting the printer from windows via spoolss.

  When I print, I see the print job to start, but nothing ever happens. I have to cancel the job.

  I also tried to activate LPD on vista and then connect a Mac using the LPD.  Similar results.

  HP has a guide that guide a person through how to share a windows computer and then connect a 10.8 Mac to the windows computer to printing?

  Something else which also confuses me, even if I installed the drivers 1006 on Mac, they do not appear when I goto Advanced-> use: choose a driver model or a printer.

  Hello

  First of all, that the drivers installed on the HP site?

  The printer drivers for 10.8 non-existent Apple and not on the HP site, downloading the site exclusively for Mac OS X 10.5 or lower.

  If you have installed a HP software, remember to delete following HP uninstaller or manually remove drivers by going to the library > printers and moving the HP folder in the Recycle Bin.

  Next enter SDPP/happy/Resources. You can get P1006 in this folder and move the files to the trash.

  Then, install the following package to have the printer drivers installed on your system:

  http://support.Apple.com/kb/DL907

  Once the drivers insalled, follow the steps below to try to add the printer manually:

  1. Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu.
  2. Choose Print & Scan.
  3. Click on the button + to add a printer.
  4. Press the control key while clicking on the icon 'Default' (or any other icon on the toolbar), and then choose Customize toolbar on the shortcut menu that appears.
  5. Drag the icon of advanced (gear) in the toolbar.
  6. Click done.
  7. Click on the Advanced icon that has been added to the toolbar.
  8. Choose the menu Type drop-down Windows.
  9. In the URL field, type the address of the printer in one of the following formats:

     SMB://workgroup/server/sharename
     SMB://Server/sharename

     Note: "workgroup" is the name of the Windows workgroup that the computer sharing the printer belongs. "Server" is the name of the computer sharing the printer (or its IP address). "share name" is the shared Windows printer share name. If the share name contains spaces, replace each space with "% 20" (without quotes).

     Tip: you don't need a "working group" when you specify the IP address of the computer (for example when the printer is on a different subnet), or if your Mac belongs to the same workgroup Windows (SMB).

  10. In the name field, type the name that you want to use for this printer in Mac OS X.
  11. Select the appropriate PPD or printer driver from the pop-up menu "with the help of Print."
  12. Click on Add.

  Printer sharing is a feature of the operating system and not a feature provided by HP, still further it is more complicated and involve many aspects of operating system (e.g. advanced Options of sharing, etc.) while using such a device on a such different envoirnments, why HP doesn't provide any guide also and do not support such a task.

  Hope you find this information helpful,

• How to connect my Macbook pro (early 2011) with an Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB to a LG34UM57-P for the resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels?

  The maximum resolution that I receive is 1080 p not 2560 x 1600 (21 x 9 aspect ratio - ultra wide angle). My adapterw of the display is a Lindy Adapter Mini displayport to VGA/HDMI cable is a normal black HDMI cable.

  Any suggestions please?

  Yes... go to Preferences system, then poster and Option + click on scale and see what it does for you.  You should be able to get the maximum

  resolution on this monitor, which, as you mentioned is 2560 x 1080. Maybe you could go with just a displayport cable to connect the monitor to your MacBook Pro. I don't know exactly what model or year of MacBook Pro you have, but I guess it's fairly recent. The lindy adapter will do up to 2160 p and not more, so there is that... the only other thing I know is SwitchResX, but you would have to pay a little for that...

  so, here's my suggestions, aside from trying an adapter that supports the WQHD... (loan from 4 k) that is all I have

• How to upgrade my Macbook Pro RecoveryOS?

  A few months ago, I upgraded to OS X El Capitan. It has been mostly well except for the Protection of the integrity of system (SIP) always so annoying feature. Since I've updated, I found that my boot rEFInd Manager now does not appear at startup, actually, preventing me to boot into my linux partition.

  Just as important, I can not add my unique Esperanto to PressAndHold.app characters because SIP doesn't let me change file permissions. In addition, SIP cannot be disabled because my RecoveryOS is too old for some reason any! According to the profile subject, I have version 1.0 of the RecoveryOS. In order for me to run csrutil disable I must run RecoveryOS version 2.0.

  I am running the latest version of OS X El Capitan (10.11.1), so I don't know why the RecoveryOS did not update during the installation. I have a Mid 2012 15 "Macbook Pro (no Retina Display, identifier (9.1) 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 RAM, a 512GB SSD Samsung Pro 850 and NVIDIA GeForce GT 650 M 512 MB graphics card). Please specify anything in the comments. Thank you.

  To update the recovery system, you will need to reinstall OS X, you can do either in recovery recovery Internet if your model is compatible with it.

• How to defragment my mac pro?

  How do I pay my mac pro?

  Unless you do the video or the music editing, no defragmentation is necessary under OS X. All that is taken in charge on the fly. With the help of a Defrag tool is not only useless, but can be dangerous.

  If you need to do, the best way to accomplish this IMO is to clone your system to another disk, wipe your drive and clone it back. Clean as a whistle with no fragmentation and you can't mess with a disk utility that tries to follow the small beads of return.
