I know the refresh is supposed to be on MBP but wanted to get a MB White this noon and went to Machines. All Machines out of stock...

try onyx, run all the maintenance and cleanup stuff. also, if i were you, i would do a clean install of 10.6 and do the updates from there - if onyx does not fix most of your issues.

Try Drive Genius. Its a bootdisc to defrag your HDD. Works really good. And don't let the ur HDD got more than 1/2 full. Mine was 85% full, starting up the mozilla is a suffering. After defrag it, clean all the unuse language files, and delete all the files that is not needed, my mac seems working much faster than before.

i tried one of the mentioned program here and the result was tat the SMART thingy hav some problem and the prog ask me to do a disc scan....

could it be tat my hdd is nearing is death?

if so will it be better to buy a new and bigger hdd, juz incase the hdd die when i needed it most?

btw, my hdd is a sata hdd, can i use the latest sata2 and wat is the "value for money" hdd size now and which shop in LYP sell the lowest?

thanks

yo macbook users....
i got a question here... i know that now we can install windows on our mac machine...
but since the mac mouse comes with 1 button only, how do we perform the right click action when using windows?

hhmmm..... can anyone shed some light here?
thanks.... trying to consider the pros and cons before i get my mac....

use a Win mouse instead

which one? did you do the disc scan?

if so will it be better to buy a new and bigger hdd, juz incase the hdd die when i needed it most?
- No, but first backup your most important file. You can do it DIY or use a backup hdd and switch on the time machine.

shit.... been thinking about mac....
just woke up from sleep...and left my brain on my bed....
on of the most stupid question...

This is funny , cant really believe i will see this kind of question. but can't blame you for that. Well, if you want to perform right click, just use your middle finger to click it like how you did with a windows mouse. The right click is actually there, it just being "removed" from the design for an innovative and creative look.

but the prob is tat when i try to do a disc scan ( asked by system to insert my SL dvd into my macbk, the system hanged )
i dun mind to change to a new hdd as i juz installed SL into the current hdd juz 2 days ago and there is not important data there yet
i suspected tat the hdd is faulty because b4 the SL installation, my macbk was installed wif win7 i also hav prob wif the win7 installation which require disc scan

hi guys, i hv a problem.. my 3-month old macbook white seem to hv hardware issue. Since the first week i noticed, at the top of screen, the plastic at the right edge seems like peeling off. but i didnt care about tht since i having fun playing with snow leopard.
but now it become worsen. it have some scratch like scratching paper or sumthing like that.
so if i send back to the store, what did they do? they fix it on time or i have to leave it there for some time?
i dun wan to leave it there since i have lots of work 2 do with my laptop until may.

If not mistaken, this issue can be claim even 3 years is over. Not really sure about this but i think i read something like this before.

Added on April 4, 2010, 6:37 pmeh bro, for this i'm not really sure. But as i know, drive genius can scan the bad sector of the disc. Or you can ask Wei more about the hdd problem. he's one of the most pro people in apple section

how they resolve it? change the broken part? how long does it take?

Similar case for you - http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1371820

My Macbook is not working as well as I hoped. Boot camp drivers for Windows 7 is terrible, the touch pad is not working properly (no tap to click, scrolling erratic) and there's no option to dim the display causing it to suck up a lot of energy.

I might have to use back my old Acer laptop if I can't find a solution because I need Windows for my computing classes.

How about give Parallel Desktop or VMWare a try?

this is bad news...i'll need to use the bootcamp to install win7 as well...darn...

like deadman said, give VMware or Parallel a try. Read more on Here

I have it, but it severely affects the processing power and I might need it for compiling or something.

Yeap, thats the cons of using virtual machine. So, what program do ur computing class using? And in bootcamp, the function for "tap to click" is actually there! and the brightness can dim it down. In ur bootcamp, you should change the power performance to "balance" not "performance" so that you will have a longer bettery life. Guess what? my mbp with 9600 when switch to "performance" for the power performance, the battery only last 1 hour. but in SL, with 9600 can last 3hrs something.
