Implementation of Minecraft on MacBook pro

I just bought a MacBook Pro. Before I ask my question I want to preface this by saying: I don't know anything about computers. I wanted to install Minecraft for my son. I downloaded it, but the Mac is always telling me that to install it. I ended up installing 3 times. And we can not always understand how to open it. Can someone he dumb down for me? Also is there a way to save it to our office or the taskbar at the bottom of the screen? Thank you.

Click the Finder icon in your dock. Minecraft done appear under downloads?

  • Pls advise RE: purchase of / resale MacBook Pro w / retina after Skylake-chipped MacBooks are released.

    Hello

    I'm looking for advice from the community RE: purchase of

    MacBook Pro 13 inch with Retina display

    Core i7 processor

    16 GB OF RAM

    512 GB Flash storage

    I need a laptop NOW. So, unfortunately, I look forward to the implementation of models of MacBook Pro with chips of Skylake, would have been to be released maybe in June 2016?

    1. I guess that's a bit like buying a car, for example, the machine value will depreciate as soon as we get to my office and then drop when the new models take place. Is this correct?

    Despite my suspicion, that the answer is a YES in the above, I tell myself to buy the machine, I need now and when the Skylakes fall, I can sell the MacBook Pro, I'm about to buy.

    Skylakes or not, the above specifications are how I would set up - I wish the 1 TB of Flash storage, but I would not spend $ 500.

    2. the Flash storage problem would significantly influence the resale value?

    3. should I buy this or I am about to make a terrible mistake?  My (endless) research indicates this is a good machine - & I visited it in the store and fell in love with a video duck / the Retina display. I love more screen real estate in general, but I decided to trade for portability since I've also got an iMac. I would really appreciate the wisdom of the community and put an end to the fatigue of my decision.

    Thanks as always for your help!

    Since you told us about what you plan to do with it, we can say anything on the Mac you have chosen.

    It was my standard answer that if you need now then buy.

  • I have a iPod Classic 30 GB. I have a new macbook pro and I managed to put my iPod, but now I can't synchronize my iTunes to iPod. What should I do next?

    iPod Classic does not sync with iTunes on MacBook Pro.

    If "reset" means you did a restore on it (to erase it), after the restoration, the iPod is set by default to use the parameter manually manage music and videos] .  If you expect not to sync automatically, you need to Sync music.

    NOTE: For anyone else reading this, all the songs of the iPod that are not in your iTunes library will be lost.

    This enables automatic synchronization.  You can choose to synchronize your entire music library or a part of the selection .  Implement this screen as you want, and then click apply to sync iPod.  Further, iTunes automatically keeps iPod "in phase" with the changes in your music library (or the selected part of it), when you connect the iPod (or click sync , if already connected).

  • MacBook Pro 2014 - failure of the graphics card for the 2nd time in 2 years - no guarantee

    Hi all

    end of 2014, I bought a new 13 inch Retina Display MacBook Pro mid 2014 model (A1502, EMC2875). A few months later, the graphics card has failed - no obvious reason. Apple replaced. Now, the graphics card has not yet. Still, the mac worked perfectly well (no overheating of the noise, nothing) and all of a sudden - no understandable reason or external actions, the graphics card has failed. Unfortunately, I do not have a guarantee of more. At least, I can access my documents by connecting two Macs, so I hope that the material is not affected.

    My model (1502) apparently only has a single integrated graphics processor.

    My questions:

    • After some research, I discovered that Apple used to have these problems with the 2011 edition. They have implemented a replacement program. Does anyone know sth on this subject?
    • What graphics card would you recommend? How much such a graphics card? Where could I buy a cheap?

    Of course, I don't want to reuse the same type - guess I don't have to explain how @* #&! I'm after two times the same problem within two years after the purchase of a brand new MacBook Pro...

    I would appreciate any recommendations and links!

    Best regards

    Rahel

    -As you say, your Mac model uses the graphics processor integrated in the CPU chip. So, there are ios no replacement possible. The CPU is soldered to the logic board

    -The problem with the 2011 MacBook Pro was with the discreet Nvidia, not the graphics unit integrated in the CPU graphics unit.

    -When you went to an Apple store just says the genius of APple?

    This is the Office Mac Pro forum. I asked that your post be moved to the MacBook Pro laptop.

  • 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.

  • MacBook Pro retina don't stop/restart

    I got my macbook pro for a little over a year and I have never had any problems with it. Recently, about a week or two ago, I noticed that I couldn't turn it off or restart. I don't know what caused this problem, because the only thing I did was remove about 50 gigabytes of Doctor Who. I have also noticed that when I was playing Minecraft, once I left the problem Java would remain open and would not disappear until I manually had to shut down my computer. The same observation is for diagnostics of apple. I would like to 'force quit' the program, but it would remain open with the small point below until I had manually restarted my computer. I don't think manually restart it's a good thing for my computer, so I try to do as little as possible. I have reinstall my operating system (I think), but that has not solved the problem. Is there a simple solution for this, or should I bring it to the geniuses of Apple?

  • I changed my apple on my macbook pro, now I can't connect my mini mac ID. Any ideas anyone?

    Hi people,

    seems that I myself lost in the ICloud/Apple ID implemented the system here. I changed my Apple on my Macbook Pro (mid-2014 running El Capitan 10.11.5) ID and now can't log in to my Mac mini. The new password set up on the Macbook Pro is not recognized on the Mini and I can't seem to login screen to study. Anyone have any ideas?

    Have you tried the old password on the Mini?

    I've never used an iCloud password to connect to my Mac as he seemed always destined to fail. It seems also Apple removed this possibility, but this does not affect those who made possible it. If you manage to get back in and somehow change the password, you cannot use the password to iCloud.

    I don't know if this will help, but you can reset the password to a different admin login, if you have a.

    Otherwise, start in Recovery.

    From the Utilities menu, choose Terminal.

    Type the following command and press return

    ResetPassword

    A utility opens when you select the hard disk and a user account, and then reset the password.

    Quit the utility, and then restart when finished.

    This will not change your Keychain password. You should try the old password or reset the keychain, thus losing all of your passwords.

    I don't know how an iCloud password affects the connection ring, however.

  • Can anyone recommend a good for a MacBook Pro USB flash drive?

    I have just implemented a new of the retina end 2015 13 "MacBook Pro and you are looking for a 128 GB + good for fast backups flash drive while looking around a hard drive for use with Time Machine or SuperDuper.

    I'm particularly interested in: (1) A flash drive that is pre-formatted for a platform of Mac OS X for recent models. (Couldn't find it from what I saw on Amazon.)  (2) I believe that the current MacBook Pro USB 3.0, but yet there seems to be a lot of disc memory flash USB 2.0 autour.  Anyone found a good 3.0 flash drive Mac compatible in size 128 - or 200 GB? (3) If you happen to have one, it would be swell to find a drive lean enough to fit comfortably in a port USB of the MacBook, even if something is next to him.

    Thanks - much appreciated suggestions!

    You can format external hard drive for Mac OS X with disk utility.

  • The MacBook MacBook Pro vs the 2015 2012 Air

    I'm currently looking in laptops refurbished Mac as a device to program in XCode on and use it as a laptop school.

    My options seem to be the 2012 MacBook Pro vs. MacBook Air 2015. While my main focus will be programming, I need my computer to be able to handle other tasks. My complaint with the laptops has always been the General slowness are associated, when they become easily outdated. In the MacBook Air, much higher transfer speeds of flash memory should help, but the big difference of GHz between the two processors will be a problem?

    In the 2012 MacBook Pro, it runs at 2.5 GHz with a Turbo Boost to 3.1 GHz.

    In 2015 MacBook Air, it runs at a meager 1 .6GHz, but the Turbo Boost can reach up to 2.7 GHz.

    Big Turbo Boost of the MacBook Air, it seems competitive, but it will never really reach this clock speed? I've never owned a Mac for myself, and while the Turbo Boost looks impressive on paper, I do not understand if Turbo Boost is effective when it is actually implemented or not.

    Unfortunately, I'm used to my 4.0 GHz custom PC, so it is difficult for me to understand the magnitude of these small clock speeds and Turbo Boost.

    All opinions welcome, thank you for your thoughts!

    Hi milehigh3r

    In this article MBP = MacBook Pro and MBA = MacBook Air the MBP specific I compare the MBA with is Late 2012 15"

    Two of these laptops have there for and against.  I'm assuming that you look the MBP 15 "and 13" MBA

    In the MBP i7 would also go more high as you say that its Turbo clock is 3.1 GHz which means that it is the fastest frequency, he's going to go.

    Pros of the MBP (MacBook Pro)

    Retina display (Macbook air is not equipped with a Retina display)

    Can use up to 16 GB of Ram

    There are also more ports on the MBP

    All CPUS MBP is i7 which means you would get the benefit of technology hyper threading which creates a 4 additional virtual cores.  What will make it a 8 Core CPU.

    the MBA would not have this functionality if you upgrade the $130 extra for the i7 (Note: this i7 in the MBA is only a Dual Core)

    The MBA Pros / Cons

    Latest generation ports (Thunderbolt 2 (Thunderbolt 1 is on the MBP))

    You cannot install any OS prior to OS X 10.11 El Capitan

    To conclude I totally recommend that you go for the MBP because you have found the two nuclei and i7 in standard, you can also get much better display.  Also all Apple products Refurbished come with new batteries (I would say that you go to a class A which means better conditions).  Try to get a SSD if possible as they will make it lot faster on the start menu to the top of the OS and applications.

    Need anything better explaining it, or have any questions feel free to answer me.

    I downloaded the version 9.0.1 and 9.0.9 from the Web site, while trying to install all of them, I had this massage:

    iMovie 9.0 or later version is required to install this update.

    I couldn't find iMovie 9.0 on the website or on my mac
