For example when i play movies will they be Full HD?2)Can i connect it to my 35" phillips regular tv. I mean i bought it back in 1999 and it was really good back in the day.

i am about to have my first mac, a macbook pro. I live in Turkey and Apple prices are really of the roof here. So i ordered it from Amazon to save 1500$ and had it shipped to my friend's house in USA. He will bring it with him when coming here to Turkey. I ordered on 16th of June, delivered on 23th of June and i will be getting it tomorrow. Problem is i heard that it should be calibrated within a week after buying. I suppose this wouldn't be a problem right? I mean it should be a week after booting it i think?second question is about using while calibrating. I know i can use my laptop when it is fully charged and resting on that state for 2 hours but can i use it while it's charging.
I really wan't to know if there are anyone out there who can swear that their new MBA (13") doesn't creak AT ALL? I mean some ppl says that their MBA dosen't say anything at all! Is that really true? Or is it just because you (owners of non-creaking MBA) don't notice or is it because you don't think it is a problem? I would also like to hear if any of you have made the creaking go away (for good) by tighten the buttomplate?
I've just installed coolbook and fiddled around withe the settings etc, and restarted.Do I need to open coolbook every time I restart the MBA?Do I need to have the application running all the time, or do I just leave itclosed? (i guess if the answer the question 1 is no, then the answer to this is no as well!)Finally, is there a way of keeping the icon in the menu bar without having the actualy application open (assuming you don't need it open all the time)? I like seeing what temp it's currently at
Has anyone ever had luck and had enough failures that with Apple Care Apple will just give you some credit toward a new machine?Can't remember what failed last time but i kept getting a blue screen after the load screen.
if y'all are kind enough to respond to this, can you keep it in baby language. I have very, very poor knowledge of the world of technology, and jargon will only confuse me! Step by step would really I have a PC I need to reinstall windows xp on, so i downloaded a torrent copy of xp from the net ( i know it's illegal, but i had a licensed copy, and my horrible ex decided to take it when he left, so i don't feel so bad ) onto my mac. I expanded the .rar file, and was left with three icons. one says image.img and has a little pic of the harddrive on it, and has about 650 MB of info. the other two are small (4kb and 24 MB), and just show a blank page icon, and say image.ccd and image.subNow, I assume I need to get those files onto a c.d, which when inserted intomy P.C will automatically begin the install process on my P.C.
I have a blackbook (intel core 2 duo) and I can connect to my landlord's wireless network (they have a netgear wgt624) but I can't actually use the web (Safari or Firefox will just "think"). I've tested the diagnostics and it confirms that my mac can connect to the network, but it cannot connect to the internet. The network uses WPA personal and it has a 19-aphanumeric passphrase.
*Also - would it be possible for me to extend the wireless range (and make it possible to browse the web) if I used my own 2wire wireless modem to connect to the netgear wgt624?

It is on my home network which I have been using for months. I have made no changes to my router or network setting. Other devices will still connect to the wifi with no problem and I connect through the ethernet connection with no problem. I have disabled the wifi and restarted my computer with no luck.

What i did was open the ipod through mycomputer (windows XP) and cut the folder that contains all my music and pasted it into mydocuments so i had full amount of memory on my ipod to use it as a memory device. I gave it to my friend to put some videos into my ipod again through mycomputer. He didnt allow the ipod to sync on his itunes. Now i have it back i plugged it into my pc and my itunes couldnt pick it up and neither can mycomputer. I left it plugged in and restarted my pc when it booted up i opened itunes and it was sort of froze, after leaving it for a minute or two my ipod cam e up on itunes but it said it was corrupt. I ran the restore over night as it was taking along time and when i cam back this morning it was still doing it! Whats wrong with my ipod?! is there any other way to system reset it? do you think my mate should have synced it with his pc?

I'm trying to connect my Macbook (white, purchased in early 2009) to my TV. I have the composite (red, white, yellow) cable plugged into my TV on one end. On the other end, the yellow is plugged into apple's mini DVI to video adapter which is plugged into my Macbook, and the red and white are plugged into an adapter that is plugged into my headphone jack. Audio is working through the TV, but video is not.
I'm having a very strange Cisco VPN issue. I connect to a Cisco VPN every day for work from my macbook. Currently I prefer to turn off the Airport when I'm at the desk and use a wired connection. If I try to connect to the VPN with only the wired ip up, the VPN times out and says it failed to negotiate. If I unplug and turn on the AirPort it works fine. 2010 MPB 15 i7, 8GB, Intel 160 SSD, OS X 10.6.5

How do I connect my macbook pro to a TV using a HDMI cable? I have it connected and it is on the correct input but all I can see on my TV screen is the generic galaxy screen for Macbooks.
can't connect to the box. They say it's because WEP number is no longer valid with this OS, have toi have aWPA code (or whatever it is called ...).Is that true ?

Is there a built in feature in OSX that will let me use the 3G signal from the iPhone to let me go online with my MBP? Or do I need a 3rd party program?
