• How to take movies on my macbook air to free up memory and still access those I downloaded from iTunes?

  I want to free up the memory on my macbook air and have 65 GB of movies hogging the space. I don't want to lose them forever if you want to know how I can free up memory and again back to the film at some point in the future.

  If they were purchased through iTunes, you can download again them at any time.

  However, there is no way to stream movies, so you have to download the entire file again for a movie.

  Open iTunes > iTunes Store > purchased (on the right side of the window) > movies.

  Make sure that the sort is set to "Not in my library" If you try to redownload something that has been removed from the computer.

  Get only the memory of a place as above, since Macs are picky about the memory. Another place is crucial.

  If you can't swing for 16 GB (2 X 8 GB) replace a strip of 2 GB with a key of 8 GB.

• Satellite Pro L50 - a: how to replace the memory, HARD drive and battery

  I just uploaded 2 new video from Youtube on the L50 - A. Satellite Pro

  The first is a tear down showing how to replace the memory, hard drive and battery (you can also clean the fan if it detects overheating).

  BTW why they made it so difficult to get just to the battery in this model?

  WARNING - proceed at your own risk and don't forget static precautions!

  Hope they help and if you have any questions let me know.

  Thanks for these videos. It may be useful to replace the memory, but I think that the owners of the laptop should not open the case. This may void the warranty.
  Be careful about this.

• Can I replace the memory and not lose what is on the old memory for a Mid 2007 Mack computer desktop Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GHz processor speed, 1 CPU, 4 MB of Cache L1, the 4 GB memory at 800 MHz bus speed.  Only 1 slot can play memory, the other is damaged

  Can I replace the memory and not to lose what's on the memory of the former?  I have a Mid 2007, 20 "desktop Mac, Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GHz processor, 1 CPU, 4 MB L2 cache, 4 GB of memory, 800 MHz bus speed.  I have a backup device.  A RAM slot is damaged.

  You are confused of RAM and disk space available.

  RAM stores information temporarily while the Mac is enabled and the application is reached. RAM replacement has no effect on the long term of your information storage.

  The hard drive is where your information is stored in the long term. If you replace your hard drive, you need restore the information from a backup.

  FYI, for your iMac, the maximum RAM is only 6 GB.

• My 2013 series MacBook Air hot and slow or freezes when I'm on Facebook or Tumblr. In addition, the battery begins to drain. Why?

  Whenever I'm on Facebook or Tumblr, my MacBook freezes and runs hot and slow, eventually freezing. He also began to overheat, with maximum speed cooling fan and battery drainage. This only happens when I'm on these two sites since it rolls when they are not open. There is no problem in loading the computer or using other programs and Web sites.

  These issues have started only very recently, in the last week or so. What is strange is that for a number of programs or open tabs does not seem to cause problems, but once I open Facebook or Tumblr, the computer becomes overloaded (even if there are no other programs running outside of Safari and they are only two tabs open). Even YouTube does not cause the same effect.

  Help is very appreciated!

  MacBook Air (13 inch, mid 2013), OS X El Capitan (10.11.3)

  Hey there!

  What browser do you use? I had some problems of my own with Tumblr, Google Chrome, and power draining eventually led me to dump Chrome when I realized it was hogging all my resources. I recommend also to configure tumblr to show you your dashboard in the pages of 10 to 15 positions rather than scroll without end - in this way, he does try to keep everything loaded at the same time.

  You can also see your Mac activity monitor while you use these sites to get a better idea of how the power of the computer's processor and RAM are handling activity.

  gauge the battery to the boot screen and battery on report menu conflicting Details about the level of the battery. The gauge from the battery to the Starter incorrectly displays the low battery level that prevent the start of the battery. This happens on macbook pro retina 13 inches

  It gets really frustrating and remove my ability to use the macbook pro retina as a truly portable device...

• PC Health Monitor and battery cover Satellite U940

  Hello

  I have a Satellite U940 on Windows 8.1.

  My question is if there is a relationship between the wear of the battery and the laptop on toshiba PC health monitor health.

  For now my wear and tear on the battery is at 50% of the full capcacity according to BatteryBar
  However, on the health monitor, it says that the health of my battery is good (full Green).

  I can only go out about 1.5 to 2 hours in the life of my laptop and just ask for help and information on the issue of whether I should buy a new battery or is at - it something wrong with my reading of the battery.

  Thanks for reading this.

  > Now my wear and tear on the battery is at 50% of the full capcacity according to BatteryBar
  However, on the health monitor, it says that the health of my battery is good (full Green).

  The health of the battery shows you the State of health of the battery and not the State of battery charge.

  > I can't get about 1.5 to 2 hours of life out of my laptop
  Battery working time depends on the use of the laptop. What does that mean?
  Well, run the heavy performance software (games, video editing software, etc.), using the brightness of the light display or DVD movie playback would drain the battery quickly.

  1,5 - 2 hours of battery time is not bad. But of course; sooner or later each battery must be replaced. It s just a matter of time.

  If a MacBook Pro RAM and drvie hard can be modified/improved depends on the submodel and we do not know yours. There are dozens of variations of the MacBook Pro issued since 2006, and you do not want guessing us!

  Please do "about this Mac" in your Apple menu to get this:

  

  Notice the line that I have highlighted with the red arrow. Please tell us what your computer has in the thr same place. However, do not post any serial number.

• Extension of memory and HDD on Satellite 1805-s203

  Satellite 1805-s203
  Intel Celeron 800 MHz
  128 MB expandable to 512 MB
  15 GB HARD DRIVE

  I recently installed at 256 MB of memory and it seems that the memory slots. To develop my memory 512 MB what should I remove the memory of 128 MB and replace it with a 256?
  Addition, how else can in I put this laptop? I could increase the HARD drive? How could I increase it with 512 MB of memory?

  Hello

  It is not easy to find specific info on older models of laptops. According to the mobile news it can handle with max 512 MB of RAM. Compatible RAM module is KTT-SO815/256 256 MB memory-(Kingston). With the help of two of them you can have max RAM and laptop will go much quicker.

  Disk HARD is not easy to say with certainty, but I think that you can pass to 30 or even 60 GB, but 30 should not be a problem.

• Sat Pro 2470 memory and BIOS update

  I recently received from Win XP SP 2 installed on the laptop and the free memory is very low (64 internal, additional 64 installed)

  I would like to add 2 x 128 MB to 320 MB total authorized under the current BIOS.

  After doing this, the manual says in Chapter 8 on page 7 that some files must be removed by following these steps:

  Click Start, and then turns off
  Brand to start the computer in MS-DOS klik OK

  Write to CD\Windows - renterb]
  Write the output - enter

  With XP, I can't find the option to choose start in DOS at the next startup. Is this also necessary when I add memory?

  Question: why should the battery be taken out when changing the memory? Isn't out enough power?

  WE BIOS: I can't find any information on what brings the BIOSupgrade available for this laptop. If I update the BIOS, which is the maximum size RAM and HARD drive? All the other important points?

  Concerning

  Jonas L/Brussels

  Hello

  I don't think that you should remove all files with Windows XP.
  Simply insert the modules of memory and power on the machine.
  Updated the BIOS normally does not increase the available memory.

  Good bye

• Clock and battery indicator went

  Hey, I've finally updated to OS X El Capitan last night. Everything goes a lot overall, I love the new features and the whole system runs a lot faster. The only problem I have is that since I've updated the clock and battery indicator are no longer visible in the status bar at the top of my screen. Does anyone else have a similar issue or know how to recover? I'm running it on my early 2013 13 "Macbook Pro retina. Thank you

  Note aside, is there a way to display images here? This is my first post so I am new on how it all works and I want to post a screenshot of what appears on the status bar.

  You went in the preferences-> Energy Saver system and provided for the option to display the status of the battery is turned on?

  Have you went into the preferences system-> Date time & -> clock and ensured that the option to display the date & time in the menu bar is turned on?

• New Macbook 12 inches - swollen battery

  Hello world

  I bought the new MacBook for my father in June 15. He started to use end of August and loved it instantly. Two weeks ago the rear housing began to separate and I took today at the apple store and they said its probably a swollen battery. The gap is increasing day after day.

  They want to replace the rear case and battery. I tried to look online for similar problems with other new MacBook but could not find.

  

  It is unfair that I have ask a replacing a laptop 4 months old? Unfortunately, my father and I are the kind of people who will feel with a device that has been played around with. Any advice on this subject? I want to be able to use and as his laptop computer with confidence. His old Macbook Pro, never required anything and after 5 years its still continues.

  Thank you for your help in advance.

  You can have the problem repaired under warranty active sn if you take it to your local Apple store. They will not replace the computer if it can be repaired. Just because the battery is faulty don't anyway indicte that is the computer, too.
