MacBook Pro :: Can Someone Hack While Knowing The IP

Dec 8, 2010

I was just talking to this one guy on Yahoo messenger and he said he knows my IP address and my Main IP provider,that he did DOS Command.. something like that while talking to me. He said he can easily hack my computer and know private things about myself,infos,credit cards etc..Like for example I am shopping online, he said he could easily use the account.

What should I do now ? Should I change all my passwords ? I am scared.I am using Macbook Pro 15inch by the way if you need this info

MacBook :: Knowing Video Mode Without Apple Remote?

Feb 1, 2012

Ive accidently gotten to it a few times and I am not sure how I did it. The Video mode is when instead of your desktop you see a black screen that says Imovie, Idvd. Itunes, Iphoto and you can play movies you put in the drive or play youtube or anything that was in your movie file.  It is this that apple gives the remote for with some laptops. I lost the remote and remember accidently switching to this mode by hitting certain keys that I do not remember the combo. how to get back to the mode with and what button combo does it?

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.4)

MacBook Pro :: EFI Hack For 64bit On The MBP 3,1?

Sep 7, 2009

I've got a mid-2007 C2D MBP with 64-bit EFI and obviously, 64-bit processors.

'6' and '4' on Snow Leopard won't boot into 64-bit mode. I don't need the 64-bit kernel at this point, but I'm mostly curious to see what drivers and apps breaks under a 64-bit kernel and the only way to find out is to try it.

There's a pretty nifty hack involving hex editing boot.efi that works for some suitable Macs:

[URL]

No mention of MBP, and my attempts at guessing offsets and values while hex editing didn't cause any booting issues but didn't result in 64-bit kernel loading, either. Anybody happen to know offset and value in boot.efi to mod for a MBP?

I know this is a real long shot type of question and I'm not expecting anybody to know. But if you do, would love to find out.

MacBook Pro :: Hack Or Some Shareware Which Would Duplicate This Functionality On The MBP?

Sep 22, 2009

I use a unibody MBP for business, and often have to give presentations. Is there a method or hack for making the MBP only use the external display (ie the projector) rather than being limited to mirroring or extended desktop? This is so I can drive the presentation using the laptop keyboard but at the full 4:3 resolution of the projector, which is better for slides.

I am aware of the clamshell method but this requires either doing a cold boot and quickly closing the lid, or connecting an external keyboard and waking from sleep with the lid shut - neither of which is very convenient or should even be necessary, frankly.

On my old Thinkpad I could toggle/cycle through LCD/Mirror/External - is there a hack or some shareware which would duplicate this functionality on the MBP?

The computer is crashed (), so it turns on runs really, really slow (takes 10 mins to load safari)

I have nothing other than the install discs and the computer.

Does anyone have and tips and how to do it? Is it easy? Is it worth it?

Mac Pro :: Running Mac As Hack?

Jul 7, 2010

So while Hackintoshes can run a 5870 or 5770 or even a 5750 in OSX with Full OpenGl support, those of us running actual Macs can NOT so far.

So I had an idea, since Bootcamp is some sort of layer where the EFI Mac acts like a BIOS PC, would it be possible to run an actual Mac Pro as a Hackintosh?

I am not trying to be funny or cute or clever. I really am curious if a n EFI Mac can pretend to be a BIOS PC that is running a FakeSMC kind of deal and boot OSX as aPC with 2 Xeon Processors, 4.762 blahblahblah Northbridge, Southbridge, etc?

That way, I could compare 5870 running in Hack perfectly to 5870 running in Mac POORLY and only change the one CRUCIAL variable.

IMac :: Can Someone Hack Into Your Icam Or Mic?

Sep 10, 2010

Up until a few hours ago, I knew absolutely NOTHING about the Console or what an ipfw.log was but I've been learning very quickly. I was always under the impression that Mac user couldn't have issues with hackers, so I never really worried about anything until I found this tiny little window hidden in the upper left hotspot (set to display all windows). Then, earlier this evening, it literally seemed like someone was making all of my folders, pic, ext..disappear, and then reappear in another area. I understand that their are "bots" constantly trying to login to your computer, but from what I saw in past posts, it shouldn't be this extreme!

OS X :: Hack Computer Through Website Like Stickam?

Dec 31, 2010

The other day I was in on Stickam, a live stream video website. While I was streaming my webcam and chatting, I was messaged by someone who said they were going to hack me if I didn't comply with him or her. I decided to ignore them but have become paranoid because I was using my brother's computer and he has a lot of personal information on this computer. I no longer visit the website and have no reason to believe I've been hacked, but I'm still worried. I'm willing to Paypal $10 to anyone who can help me check for any suspicious activity on my computer. I know macs are difficult to hack. Yet, I've heard it's still possible. Any software I can download to find viruses to potential hackers? My internet connection requires a password to be able to use it and the stealth mode in my firewall was off when this happened. Excuse my computer illiteracy. Is it possible to hack my computer through a website like stickam? If so what are the implications?

Mac :: Is There Any Hack That Would Make The Speakers Louder

May 29, 2006

I had an iBook and the speakers on those things sucked. I got a MacBook and since i didn't see those stupid circular speakers I thought that they totally revamped them on the MacBook and made them better. They still stuck! They aren't loud enough at all. If I have the TV on in the living room I can't hear anything on the computer that is sitting on my lap. Anyway, my question is, is there any hack or something outthere that would make the speakers louder?

SteerMouse, USB Overdrive, and ... are all good setting tools for MightyMouse, but not so easy to use.

I happened found that Microsoft's IntelliPoint can over write os x default mouse curve !
You can see my setting down blow in that pic.

Good thing is IntelliPoint can apply to any brand mouse as well as well microsoft mouse, like PC tracking curve!

You may set MightyMouse in its own setting panel as usual.

Applications :: Hack For Installing FaceTime On Leopard 10.5?

I've got a friend still running Leopard 10.5 but he wants to install FaceTime. I know FaceTime requires 10.6.4 but I wanted to get your input on any hacks that might get it to run on 10.5.

I'm a n00b hacker and modified the plist file within the app and set the OS minimum to 10.5 but it still fails to run. Is there anything anyone else has tried that's worked? Should I be looking in other areas within the mpkg file or .app ?

Hardware :: Someone's Trying To Hack My Airport Extreme/how To Escape?

Feb 6, 2010

The best I could do was change the settings to 5ghz wireless n on the hope that he can't connect to wireless n and that worked except the problem is that only my laptop works with wireless n and I need to use my wireless for other things.

Is there a way to ban this guy from my airport extreme or find out his IP address and send it in to the cops or something. I'm seriously getting pissed at people for using programs to get free things.

Applications :: HD Rental Without AppleTV - ITunes Crack/hack?

Aug 1, 2008

I own a MacBook Pro 17" with the Hi-Res screen (True HD 1900x1200). I would really, really like to rent HD movies from the iTunes store instead of the normal resolution versions (although they are probably not true HD...) - but, as we all know, this unfortunately only works with AppleTV. (Stupid!) Do you think it is possible that somebody could write an iTunes crack, hack or whatever it is called to simulate that the rental is made with an AppleTV although I'm on a computer? If yes, this would be a kick-ass program.
