Could you please help m.

You can delete it. But if you're that little storage space you should start combing through your data folders are looking for in your Home folder and delete the stuff you no longer need. Download an external drive where you save your data in order to remove on the startup disk. You can also check out OWC to see if they have a larger kit of replacement of SSD for your specific model.

  • After the migration of Macintosh HD lost + found folder appears

    I did a migration from my old Macbook Pro and iMac 27 inches today. After migration was finished appeared several folders in the Macintosh HD, which normally are not there:

    -Record Office (empty)

    -var (from old Mac)

    -lost + (found 3 x ± 5 GB of files iNode)

    I found the first two I could delete safely, but I don't know if I can do it with the ' lost + found ' folder. Searching the Internet I found out that this folder is probably created because of a hard disk crash. And a few months ago, I had a hard drive problem, because I accidentally turn off my Macbook Pro in the new update OS X and I had to fix my hard drive with diskutility. So I think that during the migration of this folder was also transferred to my new iMac. Does anyone know more about this topic and I can remove this folder safely? Help would be very appreciated. Thank you.

    You can delete the folder. It can contain corrupted files, from which useful data can rarely, if ever, be retrieved.

    The main logic of my Macbook Pro 13 "2014 card is broken, and it turns out that it will be much easier and just slightly more expensive, buying a new Macbook Pro that, in order to replace. I would like to set up my new Macbook Pro 13 "online in a way such that it is as cheap as possible, while always respecting the level of my former.

  • How can I get my iTunes library is displayed on my new Macbook Pro?

    I have a new macbook pro. my old macbook crashed. I try to access my iTunes library to my new computer and am not succeed. I have "authorized" this computer, but it does not appear on my list "manage devices" in iTunes. Any suggestions?

    Hi KathShan,

    I understand that you have a problem with access to your music on your MacBook Pro. Let's see if we can get this sorted out.

    If you use Apple iTunes game or music, then you will need to make sure you have iCloud active library. I opened iTunes preferences and on the general tab, you should see iCloud music library and make sure that it is checked. After that, your library will appear.

    Take a look at the article below, but also a screenshot to preferences iTunes for more details.

    Music Apple Sync on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch and your computer
    https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT204926

    If you use any music from Apple or iTunes game, then you will only be able to download your past purchases. If you can somehow have access to your old iTunes library, you can transfer them to your new Mac. Take a look at two articles that talk about this.

    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):

    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.

  • I can't download the new version of adobe reader for my MacBook Pro.  Help, please?

    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

  • I've owned Adobe CS Master Collection since CS3. Currently, I run CS6 and can't update my software online. I run on a MacBook Pro retina mid 2012, 16 GB RAM, SSD, with the Mavericks 10.9

    Can you help me?

    Thank you

    Bob

    It seems that Adobe has reached the end of the line even by which they entered "desktop publishing." The 'right answer', it seems that you can not update of the CS6 use manual update. CS6 and, on the other hand, the idea of owning your own software and your files is no longer supported.

    Who doesn't remember the free versions of InDesign, we all received, even if Adobe has criticized the "bad old Quark" for overcharging their customers. No doubt that Quark was bad (and stupid - in retrospect). However, cloud 'Creative' new to Adobe is even worse than the Quarks value - rent you the software and don't have access to your own work while you pay the rent. We really speak to each other these questions on a Forum depopulated by Adobe? A few moments ago somebody assigned the label of "Right answer" to the first inadequate answer to my question. So now we compete with each other to see who can give the most 'popular' answer in the absence of adequate customer support?
