Can somebody help me?
Just bought a new MBP 13.
I tried using the Disk Utility to create a dmg image from a dvd.
The process stopped half way with an error and ejected the dvd automatically.
When I inserted the dvd again, the drive refuse to detect it.It seem to be ok after a restart, but I dont dare to redo the process (afraid to spoil the drive).
Anyway, during the ripping process, it was super drive was loude than usual, but I assume that's normal.
Have anybody faced this problem before?

reformat macbook with original mac os x but it ended up with 'Mac OS X can't be installed on this computer'

google around d but it doesnt seem to has one exact way to fix this...

any bro has experienced this before? and fix? just started using macbook here...

MBP 17" i7 reporting in....

jelesnya aku...

can u feel the heavines? =)

woot..!! congrats congrats. loving it?

its only about 3KG not that heavy compared to many other 17inch laptops from other PC vendors, for example Dell's Alienware M17X weighs in at 5.3KG(thats heavy)

i'm using one now
it does do the antiglare job but kinda leave some watermarks on the screen....

IMO, its better off without any SP i guess. Macbook screen hardly get scratches unless intentionally wanna leave some marks there.

i second this, even the new MBP LCDS are housed in a protective glass enclosure, you can avoid teh glossy feel by not putting the screen directly near a light source

anyone uses monitor calibrator (such as Spyder 3 Elite) to calibrate your MBP LCD before?

I only used ColorEyes and Spyder 2 express, never tried with the Spyder 3 Elite. You are facing issues?

Do you guys use any anti-virus or spy ware for your mac?

I only use CleanMyMac and Onyx once in a while.

i think he meant try plugging in the stock HDD juz to make sure the connection is okay, so we only have to worry about the specific HDD

if the stock drive works, then faulty hdd lah. back to the shop and get an exchange

1. make sure ur speaker works? hehe
2. plug in ur speakers, go to system preferences > sound, go to the output tab. does it recognize ur speaker?

downgrade a bit... some RGB noise. i prefer RGB noise compared to glare though

actually is the hardware does the thing

erm any macbook user come across this thing b4?

a 2ndary HDD for macbook (internally) but the down side is giv up the optical bay

but the stock drive spoilt and tats why i buy this HDD to replace the spoilt drive

anyway, i will bring this newly bought HDD back to the seller and see wat he says abt it

btw, is there any HDD specifically for a MacBK ?

thx

Any HDD will work , 2.5" SATA that is

Anyway i found a neat tool for those who wanna get more of their hybrid MacBook Pro graphics (9600GT/9400GT or 330M/Intel). There is this tool which allows you to switch on the fly (even for 9600gt/9400gt , no more logout/login) . Its called gfx card status , i got it and its working great

Some neat find

When my MBP is on Intel graphics




When my MBP is using nVidia Graphics. It seems that its able to output sound via HDMI , notice Audio Device - nVidia

oh i see haha. how about like this...do u have an external hdd enclosure? boot from ur OSX dvd, go to disk utility...n plug in ur hdd to the USB port. can detect or not? if can, probably something wrong with ur mac

thanks for sharing! sounds cool... i hate logging out n in juz to change gpu. will give this a try
