OS X V10.7 Lion :: Don't See The Airdrop Option On IMac

I don't see the Airdrop option on my iMac after upgrading to Lion.  I assume my hardware doesn't support that feature.  If so, can my computer be upgraded to allow this feature?

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Airdrop Is Enabled On Both Mac-book Pro And IMac With It?

May 24, 2012

why I was able to see my father's iMac in the airdrop menu and he was able to see mine as well but after a short period of time both our computers disappear from each other's airdrop menu. The screen saver did not activate and neither of us switched to different screens. I have brought my Macbook Pro as close as 8 inches away from his. I have used airdrop before with my laptop and a friend's newer macbook pro and airdrop worked just fine. We both have the same antivirus, kapersky, and I have disabled and enabled it so I doubt that is the problem.

MacBook Pro :: AirDrop Not Discoverable On It

Dec 12, 2014

I have a Macbook Pro running on OS X Yosemite. Yesterday I was at a meeting with other people using the same laptop and their AirDrop all works (when you click on the AirDrop icon it starts to scan like a radar. Mine however, doesn't do anything even though bluetooth is on and I have changed the settings to say "Allow me to be discovered by: everyone." I do notice also that my AirDrop icon is blue in the window instead of gray like everyone else's. This is what it looks like when I click on it. No scanning happens. I can't see other devices and they can't see me.

IMac :: Setting Up My SSD?

Sep 22, 2010

I'm going to install a 120gb SSD in my 27" iMac core i7. Currently I have a 2TB Hitatchi drive installed. I would like to install OSX as well as all my apps on the SSD and then keep all my user files on the 2TB drive. I'm trying to figure out the best way to get this set up once I install the SSD.

Right now I have all data, apps and OSX on the 2TB drive. Here's what I'd like to do. Once I install my SSD I'm going to do a fresh install of OSX and my apps. Then I'd like to remove OSX and apps from my 2TB drive and only keep my user files on it. My questions are ...

1. What's the best way to remove OSX from my 2TB drive? Do I have to erase the disc and then load all my user files once its been erased.

2. Also, is it ok if I keep OSX and all my apps on the 2B drive as well as my user files but still boot from the SSD? I would only be accessing my user files on the 2TB drive but wonder if I can still keep the OS and apps installed at the same time. Assuming I could but it would kind of be a waste of space, right?

3. Once I get both SSD and 2TB drive set up how I want them, I need to regularly back both of them up using CCC. I have a 3TB external drive that I backup to. Will I need to create 2 partitions on it, one for the SSD and one for the 2TB? I would like the SSD partition to be bootable incase the drive ever fails I wont miss a beat. I'm assuming to back both of them up I would need to create separate partitions on my external drive, one for the SSD and one for the 2TB.

OS X :: Setting Up A Mac Pro And IMac With Time Capsule?

Aug 16, 2009

I have an old(er) iMac [24 inch white - 750gb - 3GB ram] that I have used for three years and just got a Mac Pro [3 TB - 8GB ram] that I am looking to set up for use with my other Apple stuff (AppleTV, Time Capsule, and iPhone)

Here's the deal - I have a baby at home (which means tons of pictures and video) and I wanted to figure out a way to best set up my gear to get the most out of it. I was thinking of using the iMac as an Internet/Media Streaming Machine and Use the Mac Pro for all my work/Photoshop/Editing stuff. Any thoughts?

And then there is Time Machine and the Apple TV - I have lots of stuff and am not sure the best way to set up my time capsule (1TB).

IMac :: Setting Memory Configurations In I7

Mar 2, 2010

My question relates to memory configuration. If I buy it with the minimum 4 gig, I think that's 2 2 gig modules. Can I buy two third party (OWC or Crucial) 4 gig modules and add them, giving me a total of 12 gig, or would have to get rid of the original 2 2 gig parts? If it's possible to mix the 4 gig pairs with the 2 gigs, will there be any negative performance issues related to that? If I can mix them, do I need to worry about who I buy the 4 gig parts from? Lastly, any positive or negative comments on OWC or Crucial (or other suggestions) for memory in general?
