    Macbook pro freezes constantly!

    I usually connect a USB mouse and keyboard when that happens. A regular reboot fixes it for a while, but if it gets to be problematic I reboot while holding down the Command + Option + P + R keys for two boot up chimes. Apple's answer to this is a new keyboard and top case replacement, but it...

    My MBP drive won't read/write to CDs & DVDs

    Something I really didn't want to hear. :) For the amount that is being charged by Apple for MBPs, one shouldn't be seeing this happen all the time.:mad: Oh well, maybe Apple will fix my occasional keyboard and trackpad freezes at the same time.

    My MBP drive won't read/write to CDs & DVDs

    When I first got the MBP it burned Verbatim DVD-Rs 80% of the time and most of the CD-Rs that I had used. I initially thought that the batch of DVD-Rs weren't any good since I made so many coasters with them. Now I can't burn any DVDs/CDs with iTunes, Finder, Disk Utility etc. anymore, and now I...

    Software Update only lists the Digital Camera Raw Update v2.7 pending. According to Article: HT3744 my early 2008 15 inch MBP doesn't need the firmware update. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3744

    Which files do I transfer to PBG4 from MBP iTunes Library

    I don't remember a firmware update showing up in Software Update ever. I think the last time I successfully burned a disc was a DVD-R a couple months ago. Even then I do get an error each time I burn a DVD, but they work fine when viewed on a DVD player. Some DVD burns for data end up as...
