Unable to run bootcamp, or any xp/vista/7 on my friend's computer.
I have the Pavilion g7-2235dx with Windows 8.1 operating system. Nearly every automatic update messes up my ability to get on the internet. The only way I can connect is to uninstall all of the updates. The icons on my desktop also stopped working. When I click on them, it goes right back to desktop. Can't pin them to the taskbar either. The ones on the taskbar won't open by clicking on them either. Have to right click and tell it to open. Also problem getting my Norton anti-virus to open. Says it working but can't open it.

My GF just found a temp monitoring program for her Dell for free on line that always show her temps inside her laptop & its seems pretty cool & now I want one for my New MBP15.
What killed my last laptop was over heating issues..
I dont own a mac but and thinking about getting one and i have a few questions. first off im not a fan of OSX so i would like to use win7, so how much will it cost for me to dualboot (cost of dual boot program plus win7 plus any other software i need free or not free)? also i know you can get 5-6hours on OSX (so ive been told, correct me if im wrong) how long of a battery life would i get with win7?

View 3 Replies View RelatedNoticed the 20" Cinema is off the website AND the configurator for the Mac Pro...looks like a cinema refresh is coming VERY soon...how can they sell a Mac Pro with no choice of monitor besides the 30"...maybe next week?
Also decided I'm going to buy a Mac Pro to accompany the macbook pro. Gonna go with the monitor I have now..or the 27 inch Dell...then adjust later if a great cinema comes out. This way with Dell I can connect MBPRO, Mac Pro, AND my XPS desktop to one good display.
My question is are the NEW cinemas going to somehow connect to the mac pro desktop?
Display port video cards?
It looks like lightroom and premier has closed the gap in the windows land compared to Aperture and Final Cut. And with OpenCL's focus on using the GPU to boost performance and Apple doing it's very best to off Adobe.... is there any real advantage in software in OSX anymore? Or is it all about familiarity and preference?
I was kind of considering the i5 MBP since I'm more into editing than gaming but honestly, if I can just get a beefy Win7 laptop and run software with the same features that are just as reliable I don't really see the point in spending less for more.
sometimes when opening a program I get the rainbow wheel, is this a bad thing? I hope this is normal and harmless meaning nothing.

How do i apply for the upto date program which costs 10$ ?
I dont know the date of purchase, the place of purchase, city , state.
And fyi, I live in india. So i'm guessing there's another problem pertaining to the shipping right?
I just recieved a new Alienware desktop which gives me everything I need in terms of a desktop windows setup. However I also have the 24" ultrasharp which has MANY inputs, so I was thinking of creating a desktop type setup with the macbook pro.
Here is what I was thinking I'd need:
1) DVI-D cable (is VGA good enough?)
2) laptop stand
3) bluetooth keyboard/mighty mouse
I should be able to run the 1900 x 1200 as an extended desktop or as people said if I shut the top it should run like a full out desktop correct?
So I decided to try and enter my serial number and everything today and I got a nasty surprise ): Chat log below.

Hi, my name is Milagros H. Welcome to Apple!
*
Milagros H: How may I help you today?
*
You: Hi Milagros
*
Milagros H: Hello
*
You: I purchased a Macbook Pro on June 20th and I'm trying to get a copy of Snow Leopard with the up-to-date program
*
You: So I entered my serial number and everything and got to the 'verify info' page during checkout
*
Milagros H: Great!
*
You: But it's telling me that I already got a copy or something
*
Milagros H: I am sorry the up to date is not working yet online, you can check back later. Or you can print out the form and mail or fax it in.
*
You: Oh it isn't?
*
You: Do you have any idea when it will be?
*
Milagros H: No I am sorry, you can check back at a later time.
*
You: Okay thank you

You: I think I'll check back at a later time
I had a folder on my desktop and yesterday it disappeared. I also had some files in a folder "untitled folder" with some numbers after the "untitled folder" and, although I was able to save files to it, I can't find it on the hard drive.
I've had my Mac for a few months (and love it) but there are still so many things that I haven't figured out. On Windows you can "restore" the computer to a former date and have things just the way they were on that date.
Is that possible with OSX? It's not a disaster. Nothing critical lost (I hope) but I'm wondering what happened and what I might have done to "lose" those folders.
Some times when I completely turn off my MacBook and turn it back on I loose my desktop images (I have them changing every 30 minutes) and the screen is just a soft blue. When I double tap and go to change desktop background, it is still pointed to the right folder and all the setting are right so I dunno what is happening.

View 10 Replies View RelatedI just have one more question before I pull the trigger. Originally, I was looking to buy a new computer whether it was a laptop or a desktop. At first, my eyes were on a Vaio Z (P8700, 4 gigs, etc.....), Macbook Pro...etc...
The reason that got me to change to desktop is its performance numbers on paper. I already have a laptop so the new computer can either be desktop or laptop. In all seriousness, how much of a "day-to-day" performance boost will I notice by going with the desktop? (a noticeable enough performance to make me say..."wow it was really worth it to go with a desktop"? Day to day activities include opening many many windows including browsers, word/powerpoint, msn, movies, etc. Some more demanding applications will include photoshop/lightroom and some games.
By talking to a lot of people on forums, they keep on saying that for day to day operations, I won't notice any difference (I want the most smoothest experience, opening/alternating windows...which I am not getting with my laptop at the moment). Even for these small day to day applications, will I notice a difference in this desktop against one of the latest laptops? Honestly, gaming is important but not the deciding factor here.
I was also thinking of getting a premium laptop and then buying a Samsung HD240 as an external monitor but people said it will put great stress on my laptop (overheating issues...)
Is there anyway to display/embed text on the Mac desktop, either off of a text file or just punching it into a menu or something, in any font I want? (I did notice Geektool, but it seems like I can't adjust the font, and it's out of date - not for Leopard).
I just want to be able to display like a daily 'motto' or something on it.
1. Advise a downloader(on Vista pc i use Flashget and enjoy it), Speed Download is shareware+interface is not too friendly. some pals recomended:
iGetter, Leech, Download Queue, Download Wizard, and Download Manager, but which one to choose, which is better ?
2. Which application delete program would you suggest:
à) AppZapper
b) CleanApp
c) AppDelete
3. need a prog. for .RAR files ( not Stuffit, cos it has unfriendly interface for me, imho), which is better:
Unrar X,
Simply Rar
UnArchiver
For some reason. Norton Antivirus on my MacBook Pro is saying that about every ten minutes I'm getting a "portscan attack" from the IP address of my Dell desktop. Anybody have any idea how to solve this?
View 10 Replies View Relatednew Macbook Pro 15 w/Core i7 and I was wondering how gaming performance is with Paralells Desktop 5? I really don't want to do boot camp, if at all possible, but do want decent gaming performance. I will be using Fusion for all of my work-related VM's but my main Windows 7 VM will be under Paralells Desktop.
Will I get comparable gaming performance with Paralells or should I stick with boot camp?
I think that this feature is really nice in Windows 7 how you are able to split two different windows evenly on the desktop by just dragging each window to the left and right side.
With that being said, are there any programs/apps out there that can mimic this feature for Mac? Specifically the latest OS Snow Leopard?
TwoUp was program capable of doing this but has been discontinued.
Any fellow Mac NBRers know any others?
