View 14 RepliesWhen I switched to ICloud I thought my Apple ID and password would work for Apple store. It turns out they have a different Apple ID at the Apple store with a diferent password that I do not remember. HOw can I make the ICloud Apple ID and password work for all other platforms?

Why in the world would Apple make the track pad LESS useful in OS Lion? I hate that I can't g back to the top of a web page with a singe swipe. And of course all the other gestures are totally reversed. IMHO, this was not an improvement.

I would like to install windows 7 ultimate 64 bit on my mac on a partition created with bootcamp to play many MMOs that are not compatible with mac. It 's safe or need a safety backup ?

Mac OS X offers a method by which you can "join" an Active Directory server by going through System Preferences --> Users and Groups --> Login Options --> Network Account Server. Is this the same as making a windows pc join a microsoft domain?
If so, is this the preferred method of integrating Apple Macs in a pre-dominantly windows environment.

If I migrate my W7 machine to my Mac mini, will Windows make me reactivate the license? Is that even a big deal? If I use the ethernet cable option, will I need just the regular ethernet cable or a crossover cable?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a Stardom Decktank filled with two WD 1.5tb drives formatted as concatenated (JBOD). Raid version is AppleRaid 2.0.
I chose to format the disks as ntfs the first time but when I had to defragment the disks waaaaaay to often to get full speed with torrents and usenet I figured HFS+ would work better.
The only problem is now that I can't get the JBOD disk to work in Windows 7 via Boot Camp. Is there any drivers i need to install to get it to work? I have googled but found nothing.
If Apple does not make a USB 3.0 card for MACPro, is there an effective unit from other suppliers?

Right now I am working at a desk, with a USB number pad. It is a different height than my MBP and has different sized keys. It ends up being difficult to use quickly. I think that Apple should make a number pad that is pushed up to the same height as the MBP because it packs a battery inside. With their wireless obsession, I am sure Apple would want to make a bluetooth device, but it would make so much more sense to me if the pad could add a couple extra hours of battery life. It would come with a MagSafe dongle (power discharge) and a USB dongle (input and power charge) in a single cable like the displays. The device would charge when the computer was connected to A/C power, and only discharge when both the MagSafe cable and USB cable were connected to a computer, to make sure that it would not accidentally discharge in a customer's laptop bag. It is unfortunate that the MagSafe and USB ports are on the opposite side of where a number pad should be, but an extra 18� of cable would be a small price to pay for faster inputting and longer battery life.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was looking at the site for the new macbook air and noticed the usb backup/restore drive that's included.
I think it's really cool and very thin, and is a great design for a consumer flashdrive. Do you think apple would do this? Or leave this little thing for the mba backup only?
Of course i know there are plenty of other flashdrives out there that work perfectly, but i was just thinking that maybe apple could do something cool for them like something Mac OSX specific (such as how sandisk has that "u3" interface that only works on windows)
I just saw a 17" iMac on ebay that said it has a TOUCHSCREEN. It claims "the monitor is also a TOUCHSCREEN monitor where you can simply push the screen with your finger to run commands".
Is this true?
And if so should I consider this?
Is it slow, compared to new model?
Apple used Photoshop CS3 to make the Snow Leopard background
What my question is, why? CS4 has been out for a while.
I was trying to make apple wireless keyboard to work with my DELL desktop, but did not succeed. the problem is that when I connect the apple wireless keyboard to my bluetooth adapter, it says I need type some kinda of pass code. I have looked up manual, and there's no pass code all all.
someone said I need to insert leopard disk and install on my PC, would that work? or anyone have experience about it?
the bluetooth adapter I am using is IODEAR and PC is DELL desktop

Is it possible to make a full back-up of the Apple Mac pro and to burn on a DVD?

I was wondering if there is such a thing as a sticker to make the white glowing Apple, black.
I want the Apple to match my iMac's. I don't want it to be completely black without the glowing light though.
If it does exist, where can I buy it?
Does MAC make a common access card reader?

View 24 Replies View RelatedI've been drawn to the 24" LED Cinema Display since it came out, but have such a tough time justifying the spend of $899 on a screen. Surely the manufacturing cost of a 24" LED backlit display has come down in the past year and a half so I think Apple could sell so many more units if they just offered some sort of bundle package deal. For example, why not offer a $200 rebate on the purchase of an Apple display with a new Mac, similar to the iPod Touch promotion? Even at $699, it would still be tough to swallow, but some may just bite the bullet to take advantage of the offer.
I hope they do something like this when/if they release the rumored 27" Cinema Display, but I know it's unlikely. So what do you think --- would I just be better off buying a 27" iMac down the line than get nailed for one of these displays? (Note: I have the 15" MacBook Pro and it rarely leaves my house).
A question about windows 7 and a Mac pro 3.1 edition 2008. I have installed windows 7 and all is fine and dandy everything works, except in the bottom right hand corner there the error flag showing on the tool bar.
This is the error.
Apple Memory Controller GPE event is not compatible with windows 7.
Having problems with the Audio, Brightness and eject button keys after windows xp automatic update. Buttons sometimes work after a shutdown and restart, sometimes not. Tried the Bootcamp 2.1 reinstall but didnt help much. Where the heck can i get drivers for the bloody thing?
Apologies for the lingo but im quite frustrated. it takes apple yrs to fix one problem but only for another to appear.
I already gave up on Realtek doing something about their crappy sound quality (despite releasing a new driver every two weeks) and the mighty mouse freezing after hibernation unless u press the left button like a man possesed!!
Apologies if there are other specific threads like this, I did do an MRoogle search but couldn't find one.I've just got a new 15" 2.66ghz i7 MacBook Pro, and have Windows 7 64 bit ready to install. My question is, once I have it installed, with all the Snow Leopard drivers and 3.1 update, should I continue to download drivers from the manufacturers's websites, or just stick to the ones that Apple hands out in their updates?I suppose I'm specifically asking about the NVIDIA drivers. Should I install the most recent drivers for the 330m, or again just stick to the Apple ones?
View 3 Replies View RelatedAs far as I understand there is a bug that stops Windows 7 or Vista from showing up in the Start Up disk options in the preference settings.
So the only option is to go through the boot menu selection but unfortunately I am using the Apple wireless keyboard and holding the option key down doesn't bring up the boot selection screen. Is there anything I can do ... or am I forced to use a USB keyboard for now ?
For the record I have the Wireless Keyboard and Mighty mouse paired and working in Windows 7 ( The keyboard has occasional lag from the first keystroke input but is fine from then ) Its just that I get no response from keystrokes during boot up.
after getting my new mac and installing the Windows 7 beta on both the Parallels Desktop and VMware Fusion trials I am beginning to wonder how I can make the most of it?What I mean is how can I make it run smoother? What drivers etc shall I get and install? Please post anything which will speed up windows while I run it on my mac
