I have a MacBook Pro 2,66 GHz with his native Matshita dvd-r uj-868 Cd/Dvd RW burner and I use both Logic Express 8 and Cubase 6 to arrange my musical pieces. Once I did all the audio bounces, how can I do to prevent the final Master CD being copied?

I run a studio in an education evironment. We've got quite a lot of software installed on our machines (Mac OS X 10.7.4) and there's always the chance that students will copy applications from the Applications folder onto an external drive to take home! Obviously this is becoming increasingly easy with large USB sticks and Applications which are entirely contained in the Applications folder. Is there any way that students can still run these applications during class but prevent them from copying the whole applications?

We have an iMac with iLife 08 and just purchased a MacBook with iLife 09. We transferred the iPhoto library over to the MacBook and now can't access it on the iMac. It quits after launch. Tried to load iPhoto 09 onto the iMac after burning it to disc from the MacBook but it won't load. Tried to do the same using FireWire and it still won't work and now the MacBook is not showing any iPhoto library at all.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI get this message: "The item cannot be copied because there is not enough free space". Whenever I try to copy ANY file, even a 5kb text, from my mac desktop to one of two laptops. (BOTH, do the same thing). So then I try to put the files on a usb drive and do it that way. Same problem copying from the usb drive to either powerbook. So I try and mount the dmg from the usb drive, works, install folder opens. I run the installer, then it hangs on "examining drives" and all the drives are greyed out. Target disk mode lets me copy it over directly though.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI recently replaced my stock HDD (500GB) with a 750GB. I went into the recovery partition, and did a disk copy. I figured cloning the disk would be the best way to do things. When it was done, I rebooted, and booted from the new drive (which was in an external enclosure). It was a little slow, but I didn't think anything of it. I opened up the case for my MBP and switched the drives. When I booted up after switching them, the boot-up process was very slow, and when OSX finally booted, everything was very slow (lagging) and unresponsive. I kept getting the "Grey Screen of Death" telling me to force shut-down my laptop. I have switched the drives back, and everything is working fine now, but I'm curious as to what may be causing the new drive not to work properly. Has this happened to others? Have I missed a step or 10?Should I maybe have used Carbon Copy Cloner instead of Mac's built-in disk copy?Â

I had sharing turned off but somehow it turned back on. I think someone hacked into my computer. However, how do I find out who the person is that recently connected and is there anyway to detect whether or not they copied any of my files?

I'm using my MacBook for a wedding slideshow that will run on continuous loop for about 4-5 hours. I am a little concerned about overheating from running so long. What can I do to prevent overheating? I thought of The SMC fan control app, but don't know what the settings should be..

However, this has given me an issue.
When I choose Sleep, the Macbook goes to sleep, and a few seconds after the the splitter will turn off my screen, speakers, Printer and all other accesories.
But as soon as this happens, The Mac wakes up again.
For simplicity at home I have one USB connected to the mac, that goes to the built in USB hub of the screen.
I tried to disconnect everything from the hub leaving only the hub connected.
I know you can change admin passwords by just pressing the power button and command s... my brother always changes my password and I physically have to hide my computer so he won't hack it. I know people use firevault to protect files but I don't need to do that. Are there any settings I can change or software I can install to prevent hacking?

Per day when ever I turn on my MacBook to do my homework or anything else, the Mac kept craning at least 7 times a day. I looked at every possible thing that could cause it and all the results were disappointing. I check if my storage space was almost full or I'm using too much ram at one and my Mac kept getting worse and worse. Is there any tips on what I should do to prevent my Mac from Crashing ?

I have a strange problem that I cannot solve. I have a couple of avi DiVX movies that I created for my son to watch but I have done them on Mac and if I copy them to the external HDD directly from Mac, my Popcorn Hour NMT A-110 does not play them until I simply copy the file to a PC hard drive and then back to that HDD. This drive HDD is NTFS and write to the drive via Paragon NTFS driver. I am curious what happens during a file copy from that hard drive to a PC and back that somehow unlocks the file and makes it playable. Any ideas? Is it a paragon driver?

It started buzzing and I wasn't sure what it was, until a week later I got a folder with a question mark at log-in, from what I understand my hard-drive died. I replaced the hard-drive myself within a few minutes, very easy and no problems, and it runs perfectly.
It's been two weeks and it's already buzzing again. I take very good care of my Macbook but I do transport it from class and back everyday.

So I just got a new sony external sata bluray player and was playing around with it in vmware with xp sp3. I had spiderman in with anydvd hd and couldnt get it working. I then disconnected the usb drive and another usb hard drive from the vmware window and quit vmware. The usb hard drive then showed up in osx(which is normal), but the blu ray drive with the blu ray movie, spiderman also appeared. I was able to navigate all of the BDMW, Certificate, etc folders and even copied over the main movie of 28gb. There were no AACS copyright errors, etc.
Has this happened to anyone before? I couldn't play the m2ts file in vlc, mplayer. But it should be possible to put it into tsMuxerGUI and then demux and into a mkv. So far its copied 10GB of 28GB, I will try tsMuxerGUI in the morning.
I'm still running 10.5.6 and see attached pics for proof of the file copying and the blu ray drive attached to my macbook via usb.
