QUOTE(il0ve51 @ Feb 13 2011, 11:34 PM) planning to get 1 mpb 13" as i am going to start my online business soon, having a laptop rather than an iphone is much more easier i guess... macbook and iPhone is two different thing. I have MobileMe which sync all the emails, contacts, appointments/meetings over the air between my macbook unibody, MBA and iP5. Sometimes with iPhone you could just email or send documents on the go. |

(hybrid=conventional harddisk + SSD)  |

hello guys,
i just upgraded the hdd in my mbp, from 250gb to 500gb. the way i did it, I cloned the data from my hdd into the new hdd via Carbon Copy Cloner before transplanting the new hdd into my MBP. everything is fine, until something like this showed up: 
any of the gurus here know how to remove those redundancies? |

any of the gurus here know how to remove those redundancies? Added on February 14, 2011, 11:40 pmBy the way typing this on my new CTO MacBook Pro 15" 2.8Ghz with HR screen. Everything is so small. For those who might be interested, I installed 2 x 4GB Corsair 1333Mhz DDR3 in it. Only RM125 each. Could have bought 1066Mhz but was curious to see if 1333 will work OK. So far so good. My previous MBP 2.66Ghz had 2 x 4GB Kingston 1066 ValueRAM in it which worked OK for the 7 months I had it. This post has been edited by soonwai: Feb 14 2011, 11:40 PM |

thanks mate, found it on google. really appreciate it
CODE If you're running OS X Leopard (version 10.5.x) or Snow Leopard (version 10.6.x), you'll need to enter the following command into Terminal (located in /Applications/Utilities), followed by the enter key. You can also copy and paste the following command: /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user |
