I'm referring to the Macbook Pro Retina 15-inch (2013) model. I read that it supports three streams, and that it supports both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz.
The question is: does it support three streams on both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz, for a total of 6 streams? If not, how many streams does it support at 2.4Ghz, and how many at 5Ghz?
I'm looking at buying a router, so I want to make sure that the router supports as many streams at each frequency as the Macbook does. Thanks.
My ISP, injects JavaScript code into every website I visit. Is there a way to filter all incoming traffic in OS X and remove that injected code?
Thanks, Till
I have a 2012 13" Macbook Air running 10.9.5. I seem to be losing battery life as of late. This, itself, isn't a huge deal, as I usually use the laptop near an outlet, but as of late the more annoying problem is that it doesn't know when it's about to be fully drained. Often it just goes into instant sleep around 20%. I go find the power cable, plug it in and then it shows it was actually at 0%. It's as if it just can't "see it coming" anymore.
Today, the oddest thing happened. I saw it jump from 25% directly to 2%. This triggered me to go find the power cable and I was able to plug it in at 0% before it went to sleep. As soon as I plugged in the cable, it jumped to 36%.
What is this a sign of? It seems more software related than hardware, but I really don't know.
Is this a hardware issue worthy of a trip into the Apple Store? Or is this something I can some how 'reset' myself?
The most annoying part is the battery just not knowing when it's about to force my machine to sleep. If I can fix that, even with shorter battery life, I'd be thrilled.
I want to leave my Mac locked, but display a web page (representing a web-based dashboard) in the lock screen. The idea is to leave this web dashboard showing 24x7 but without letting anyone else get access to the rest of the system.
In my contacts, there is a contact wrongly labeled as 'me'. What should I do so that I can label the right person as 'me'? How do I change 'me'?
I'm using iOS8.
I came here in china and bought an iphone 4s, and updated to ios 8.1.2 . I want to change its app country preference to india. Can anyone help me how to do it?
Is is possible to set up a location-triggered reminders for places that have no exact address in Maps? E.g: a place outside a city / in nature, or rural addresses that haven't been entered into apple maps yet?
Yosemite or iOS 8.
So I had over 4 GB worth of photos on my phone and a month ago, I deleted them all. As of recently, the 1600 or so photos in the "recently deleted" album were automatically deleted. But, my about section says that I still have over 1800 photos (I currently have less than 100) and that I only have 1.5 GB. I've rebooted my phone and even hooked it up to iTunes... Any way to fix this other than completely erasing everything with factory settings?
I submitted a RSS reader app, but it just got rejected from the App Store, with this cited:
8.5: Apps may not use protected third party material such as trademarks, copyrights, patents or violate 3rd party terms of use. Authorization to use such material must be provided upon request
I'm wondering how all of the other many many RSS reader apps got approved, so that I can figure out what to do to get mine approved too.
Would greatly appreciate any help at all, thanks!!
I have written a Safari Extension that I would like to support with Auto updates using the built in features of safari. Saving the hassle of people continuing with using the old versions and also working out how to let people know there is an update.
I know how to do it. i.e using the manifest file...
But my website Host does not support MIME type application/octet-stream for this type of file download on its servers and I also use WordPress which does not allow the extension file wrapper (.safariextz) to be uploaded.
The file must not be zipped.
I am probably not the only one in this situation and wonder if anyone else has managed to find a way to get around these two limitations.
Okay, relative newbie here, but I have searched all the answers and tried most of the suggestions and cannot find a way to automate using Applescript or Javascript within Applescript to click a button on a specific website. I can't provide the website because it is part of a protected medical record software, but as far as I can tell the button is encoded as follows:
<h3>Add new documents for this patient
<!-- The fileinput-button span is used to style the file input field as button -->
<span class="btn fileinput-button" style="float: right !important;">
<i class="icon-plus"></i>
<span>Add Files</span>
<input type="file" name="files[]" multiple="">
</span>
</h3>
I have tried most of the Javascript (and Applescript) solutions. I have even tried the Fake app which seems to work for every other button except this one. I have searched in vain for a button id and the above code seems to be all that refers to the button. The function of the button is to bring up a Chooser window import image files.
Using tab to get to the button doesn't work because the number of tabs varies with individual patients (dynamic website ?).
I apologize in advance if this is trivial, but it is literally the last step in a long series of steps that would save me a lot of time. I figured out everything else mainly with the help on this board.
Thanks to all of you.
So I was derping around on my computer (it has a 250 gigabyte hard drive) and thought,"hmm I wonder what happens if I partition off 75 gigs of this". believe it or not, it partitioned off 75 gigabytes on my hard drive, so what's the problem? well I have no idea how to make it one big single 250 gigabyte partition again. I tried everything, I did the minus on the partition, I did the slide, I repaired with disk utility, same thing with disk utility from the restart CMD+R, and spent hours on the internet looking for a solution. Is there anyone who can help me here?
I am looking for an iOS application that can display the speed limit of the road where I am located. I am mostly interested in the USA, particularly Boston and California. Gratis is better but not necessary.
just a quick question.
I want to make a website that has an embeded HTML5/flash audio player in with auto-play enabled, now I know there has been some talk that Apple blocks that on all iOS devices, does anyone know why? Is it a technical problem or just a business decision from Apple to not to enable that in the SDK?
Can anyone explain it to me please? Thanks!
Hopefully someone can help me. I've tried so many options. I purchased a used MacBook Pro, late 2011 model. The person I purchased it from said he wiped the hard drive, but when I got home, it seems he did that, however his login was still there.
So I did a disk utility, wiped the hard drive which checked out fine, got to the reinstall Yosemite page, but there is no hard drive icon, only the install Yosemite page. When I click continue I get this error, "An error occurred while preparing the installation. Try running this application again."
Images below are in order of error

So, now that I have my new iMac 5K, I'm pleased that it can text like my iPhone. My Windows PC of course cannot. BUT I do NOT want anyone sitting at my iMac to read my text messages, or even know to whom I am texting.
My question is, can I disable the nonhelpful message status icon that iMac throws up when I text on my iPhone, but still use the iMac as a text machine whenever I please?
Thanks, Ed
My kids all have iPod touches that are linked to the same account. they are unable to both play Clash of Clans at the same time without one getting kicked off. Is there a way to change settings so they can both play?
I connect to PPTP VPN from my MPA and get very strange behavior. VPN connect without any errors, but after connection I can't reach any host from VPN-network about three minutes. After that everything is fine.
When I ping host from VPN-network I get:
Request timeout for icmp_seq *
And sometimes, rarely:
ping: sendto: No buffer space available
In the end of ppp.log file I can see something like that:
Sat Jan 10 01:52:21 2015 : sent [IP data <src addr ip> <dst addr 255.255.255.255> <BOOTP Request> <type INFORM> <client id 0x08000000010000> <parameters = 0x6 0x2c 0x2b 0x1 0xf9 0xf>]
Sat Jan 10 01:52:24 2015 : No DHCP server replied
(not sure it is important)
Why is this happening and how to fix it?
Maybe it will be useful:

After converting some mail accounts from pop to imap, then importing mail from Backup, the IMAP folders are located in V2 folder (not ~Library/Mail folder)
Because Mail is running very slow, I want to "normalize" the Mail folders (i.e. see all IMAP folders in ~Library/Mail, not ~Library/V2)
Can this be done without restoring from Time Machine?

I used it before but after working with Yosemite for a few months it would not boot anymore. Any ideas?
Can the status bar font be enlarged? Is this size hard-wired and unique? Is there any other (configurable) font size anywhere which could correspond to this one on user space?
Some time ago, I asked how to configure the status bar (How to configure the status bar?). The answer was that it couldn't be done. I sent that as a feature request to Apple. They didn't answer (of course) so I thought that, maybe, that font could be linked to some other one (for instance, though this is not the case to the one on View Optionson the Finder.
Thanks in advance,

I installed microsoft office successfully using the product key last year. i moved jobs and deactivated the email address as it was a work one.
I have tried inputting the product key again to reactive outlook now i have a new email account but i keep getting a message saying "The product key is not valid. Make sure that you entered the correct key. If the key doesn't work, contact Microsoft Customer Service and Support."
I have checked multiple times and am putting the right key in.
Any ideas? Microsoft office support is useless!!!
I created a second Admin account on my Macbook Pro (Yosemite) and also enabled Guest login. Now I can only access the second account and the guest login from the login screen, the primary admin account is no longer shown.
It is also not shown in the fast user switching menu, nor am I able to log into it when I select username and password as login option.
I have not activated FileVault and I have not hidden the user by adding it to the HiddenUsersList. Any other things I might check?
I am able to su to the old user and the home directory and all still exist.
I have an iMac from 2011 and I have installed Yosemite as soon as it was released, without any issues before this one.
Here is what happened: it has suddenly shut itself off, after turning it on, it goes into the loading screen, loads to about half of the loading bar and restarts itself, this happens in a loop. I have tried internet recovery. After choosing the network, connecting, and going through the loading screen, the screen becomes grey. Same thing when I try recovery mode or when I boot from external usb device. I am able to enter the verbose mode and I was able to do system check, which did not find any issues.
Not sure what to do and whether this is a hardware or a software problem.
I have an iPhone 4 and when I try to update the IOS I get a message that the update requires at least 5.3 GB of storage. I also says that I can more storage by deleting items in Usage Settings such as Messages, email, etc. I have 6681 emails in my inbox.
How can I delete them without having to select them one at a time?
I'm a new mac user and I'm going to start using Homebrew to build my environment. My current environment I've installed piece by piece. What I want to check is what to make sure I do, so I don't get conflicts and i'm not running a load of software that I don't need.
Is this just a case of through the terminal uninstalling, apache, php, mysql etc and clearing out my usr/local/ folder and starting with homebrew?
I have a unibody 2012 macbook which appears to have some kind of grease around the battery area, between the battery and the case.
This machine has been serviced by a third party applecare provider for hard drive cable failure several times, and I'm wondering if that's something they might have left in there for some reason?
Are there any pads/components/labels that sometimes leach grease under high temperature?
The only other plausible explanation would be that it has somehow leached in through the screw holes (there is no contamination in the keyboard/motherboard/optical area, so it can't have come from above), which I also find pretty hard to believe.
Visually it looks like a sticky drink has dried up, but when you touch it it has the consistency of vaseline.
Picture here: http://ift.tt/1yLCnim (apologies for poor quality, phone is all that's available).
All plausible theories appreciated!
I am trying to print a color profiling target (created with Argyll) using the ColorSync Utility.
Unfortunately, the option "Print as Color Target" is always greyed out. In some documentation, I found that this option is only enabled if the file to print is somehow designed for the target printer. How can I create such a TIFF file that is accepted to be printed as a profiling target?
I have not found any clue in the Argyll documentation or on Apple sites. Even using Adobe Color Printer Utility is not usable, because in the printing dialog there, the ColorSync option is permanently switched on and greyed out, so I can't switch it off.
I remember reading somewhere that when you connect to a Wi-Fi network, Apple tries accessing their own URL which is guaranteed not to follow any redirects. (E.g. http://ift.tt/1yLqRDA). If it sees a redirect, it assumes you are on a Wi-Fi network that needs you to login, so it presents the login screen. Otherwise, if it was able to reach that URL with no redirects, it will just assume you are connected to the internet normally.
What is this URL, and where can I get more info about the mechanism Apple uses?
I use Terminal for web development, and typically have various tabs open, some of which are divided into multiple session (via tmux).
After a while, I'll accidentally hit command-W and kill one of the tabs ... or do I? When this happens, and a development server was running in the "killed" session, it continues running. I can't see the logs, and I don't know of a good way to kill it, but I can still hit the relevant URL.
This is a bit inconvenient, as I don't always know a good way to find and kill the hidden processes -- ps -ef | grep is not always a nice way to do things. (Particularly with ember-cli, but I'd like to focus on the general question.)
Is there a way to bring back tabs that have been "killed" in this way?
Is there a way, or a Safari extension, to do this?
I want to replace a particular word with some other word on all webpages, across all tabs.
Essentially I'm looking for something like this Chrome extension which replaces "every occurrence of certain words in webpages with replacements specified by you."
I have an iMac 27", Mid 2010 (11,3 model). Can it take 8GB RAM modules? Apple's website http://ift.tt/1Dtv4xf says "The maximum amount of RAM you can install in your computer is 16 GB (a 4 GB SO-DIMM in each slot)." But people say that 8 GB sticks ARE in fact supported. For instance, according to OWC, (http://ift.tt/1Dtv4xj) 8.0GB PC10600 DDR3 Module (http://ift.tt/1I34jzB) works.
In particular, can I use Transcend JetRAM DDR3 8GB JM1333KSH-8G http://ift.tt/1I34jzG ?
And how about Transcend JetRAM DDR3 4GB JM1333KSN-4G http://ift.tt/1Dtv4xq ?
The delete button that comes up after pressing the red circle doesn't actually do anything. The app knows I pressed the button, because the bookmark looks just like the rest again.
Anybody else seen this?
Messages Agent wants access to confidential information on my MAC every time I log in and I refuse to "Allow" it. How can we eliminate Messages Agent altogether and encourage Safari developer to believe in privacy rights?
I have allmost finish an iOS application and i want to lauch it(I also want to make it free ). Does anyone have experience in doing this and can help me...
How can i make application advance and sell into AppStore? What is the best advertise for a good balance between a low advertise budget and highest number of downloads (Google, Facebook)?
I rewrote the screen saver template that Xcode generates from Objective-C into Swift and when I try to load it I get this message:
You cannot use the BlahBlah screensaver with this version of MacOSX.
Please contact the vendor to get a new version of the screen saver.
I'm currently running Mavericks. Does it mean that Swift screen savers only work in Yosemite, or not even there?
This is the Swift code I used to replace the Objetive-C one:
import Foundation
import ScreenSaver
class BlahBlahView : ScreenSaverView {
convenience override init() {
self.init(frame: CGRectZero, isPreview: false)
}
override init(frame: NSRect, isPreview: Bool) {
super.init(frame: frame, isPreview: isPreview)
setAnimationTimeInterval(1.0 / 30.0)
}
required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
super.init(coder: aDecoder)
}
override func startAnimation() {
super.startAnimation()
}
override func stopAnimation() {
super.stopAnimation()
}
override func drawRect(rect: NSRect) {
super.drawRect(rect)
}
override func animateOneFrame() {
}
override func hasConfigureSheet() -> Bool {
return false
}
override func configureSheet() -> NSWindow? {
return nil
}
}
These are my project settings:
This was originally an Objective-C project (there's no Swift Screensaver template) created on MacOSX 10.9 and the APIs I'm using, Screensaver, have existed for years.
just a quick question.
I want to make a website that has an embeded HTML5/flash audio player in with auto-play enabled, now I know there has been some talk that Apple blocks that on all iOS devices, does anyone know why? Is it a technical problem or just a business decision from Apple to not to enable that in the SDK?
Can anyone explain it to me please? Thanks!
I'm using Parallels for running windows 8. My question is: in windows 8, the network icon always ethernet although I have selected wifi network in setting. If my mac is connected to internet, my windows will connect normally.
My question is: How can I make windows 8 see list of wifi? And my windows 8 can select a wifi to connect.
Thanks :)
I just incidentally discovered that within Mail, TextEdit when typing two dashes in a row, the string "--" is instantaneously changed in "—" (i.e. a long dash).
This magic is mostly loathsome when you need to type exactly "--", you didn't noticed this magic and wasted hours searching why a correct syntax isn't where you typed it. With small fonts this magic change is hard to notice.
This function doesn't exist on Lion and Mountain Lion.
This magic but as unwanted as ununderstood feature rise two questions.
How may I get rid of it?
I have bought an iPad Mini and this is the first time I am using some Apple device.
I have created icloud account but everytime I try to download something from Apple Store, I have to enter my icloud password. Is there a way to save this information so it won't ask for password again and again?
I am trying to get a OS X server setup so that I can see it from outside of my internal network.
I have got OS X Mavericks installed with the Server app installed as a VM for testing purposes right now, it has access to the internet and I can browse it from my local Macs on the network.
Now I want to be able to set it up as a basic webserver to which I can set up a website or a small cloud backup etc.
I have various Domain names which I use for my website and I could repurpose one of these or purchase a new one if needed.
I tried just turning on the Websites option which didnt work, I did have a play around with the DNS options adding in the IP of my domain etc but didnt get anywhere.
do I need anything else besides a Mac with OS X Server, Domain name ? or am I missing something completely?
I am fairly technical but this is a bit out of my depths here I have done my google seaching but eveything I seem to find is always based to set up a local webhost or within a corp network
if anyone can point me in the right directions I would appreciate it.
Adam
How recent does the back up have to be, when your about to jail break? Please I need answer. Thank you.
Is there any way to disable the delay for text dragging in OS X?
There is a small delay between selecting and dragging text, if you start dragging the text right after you selected it - it will instead re-select the text which can be annoying. Some apps don't have this delay (for example Sublime Text 2/3 where you can drag the text immediately after selecting it) but in most apps you would have to click the left mouse button and hold it for a bit before you can drag the selected text.
Since office mac (2011) can only be installed 3 times, and it has been installed 3 times already, is there a way i can get it from one of the old devices i have previously installed it on to my new mac without buying office again?

Currently FileVault is turned off.
Previously, I tried to run the command (on Revertible: yes (decryption required), with FileVault key), but I couldn't tell if it worked. Afterwards, I turned off FileVault, and it stopped being revertible.
