Does the MacBook Pro have an alarm?

I don't know of any thing in the MacOS or standard applications that you can set an alarm.

There are many free MacApps that will do it tho.

Either go to the MacApp Store and search for one or you can just do a Yahoo/Google search for a Mac compatible one also.

How long does is take to charge a ipad3?

Your iPad will charge the fastest if connected to an power outlet. If you connect it to a computer for charging, depending on the computer, the iPad may not start charging until the computer is idle or "asleep."

The charging time for any battery operated device always depends on how many times the battery has gone through the drain-charge cycle. For the relatively new iPad version 3, it may be as short as 30 minutes but again, depending on the condition of the battery, may take several hours to get a full charge.

Also, keep in mind that the battery charge icon is not a direct measure of how much charge is left but a software interpretation of battery charge. In other words, it does take into account what you are doing so that the iPad can give you an appropriate warning of "5% charge" if you continue what you are doing.

What country was apple founded?

Apple Inc. was founded in the U.S.A. and their headquarters are currently located in Cupertino, California.

Which laptop is best for an incoming high school freshman MacBook Air or MacBook Pro?

It all depends on what you need it for.

If most of what your doing is taking notes, web browsing, word proccessing, etc, then the MacBook Air should be fine.

If your an enginering student, doing HD video editing or other heavy processer work then the MacBook Pro would be better for the long run.

With the newer Apple laptops you will need to max out the ram as you won't be able to upgrade later as the ram is permanently install.

How many watts does the MacBook Pro use?

The MacBook Pro has a 95-watt-hour lithium-polymer battery.

This is a measure of how much power is available in the battery.

There are many ways to use the MacBook Pro. Each function uses power.

The fewer functions you use, the longer the battery charge will last. The more functions you use, the faster the battery is drained. Watching a movie takes more power that writing in a word processor.

Apple suggests about a 7 hour use is possible, but it all depends on what you are doing. If you mulit-task, you won't get 7 hours of battery charge.

Lithium polymer batteries need to be charged regularly. If left unattended for months they will loose their ability to be recharged fully if at all.

Does the MacBook Air have a disk drive?

The MacBook Air does not have a CD/DVD drive built in. It is designed to be used on a wireless network and, if required, would connect to a CD/DVD drive on another computer via the network. An external USB CD/DVD drive can be added.

How many pounds is the MacBook Air?

How do you fix your sound on the MacBook Pro?

You did turn the "mute" off right? Via the Sound keys.

System Preferences/ Sound and see if the internal speaker is selected if you don't have external speakers connected.

If you have external speakers or plug in a head set you have to chose them in the same place, it may show up under "Line Out" more then likely.

SoundSource is an application that puts a drop down menu in the upper Apple menu bar to make it quicker to switch back and forth, there are others out there also.

Does AutoCAD works in an Apple Computer?

This question is answered a million times elsewhere, but here it goes again:

Autocad can be used on a Mac laptop via BootCamp and Windows install (or similar trick). It can not be used directly with the Mac OS. You should expect an inferior performance than with a non-Mac laptop with the same configuration and be advised that Autodesk does not support this type of install.

If Autocad is your main work tool, you should stay away from Mac. Try instead the new Lenovo Thinkpad w500, or the upcoming Dell Precision series (available in 2 months) or the HP 8530w. All are (or will be) equiped with the new Intel Montevina CPU and with workstation type GPU which are designed towards Autocad/Photoshop/Maya/etc. softwares.

I'm assuming your budget will permit this type of laptops (you are asking about Mac...). If you want cheaper machines, look for the Lenovo Thinkpad t61p (it was discontinued yesterday, 5th August) which is a very good option and should have nice prices ($1500 for a maxed out laptop), or the HP 8510w, or the dell precision m series.

For further information I advise you to ask this question at the autodesk forum.

Similar to the Macintosh operating system and Microsofts Windows operating system.

Is the MacBook Pro better or the MacBook air?

Either the MacBook Pro or the MacBook Air has its share of features that makes it distinct from each other, but it doesn't necessarily mean that either laptop is superior. If you are looking for long battery life, a light and slim form factor, and storage space isn't a high priority, then the MacBook Air is for you. If you are looking for a sharp display (especially the Retina versions), larger form factor (ie: 15" screen), a high-end CPU/GPU, and plenty of storage, then the MacBook Pro is for you.

How do you download pics from MacBook Pro to flash drive?

The simplest way to do this is to go to your iPhoto library, right-click on the photo you want to put on your flashdrive and select show file. This will bring up the picture file in a finder window. From there you can copy and paste it to your flashdrive. Another way, which works better for multiple photos, is to select any pictures you want to put on your flashdrive, go to the File menue at the top of the screen and select export (this can also be done by selecting the photos and pressing Command, shift, and E simultaneously.) A box will come up and you can select the names, sizes, and types of the picture files you are exporting. Click export and select your flashdrive from the left of the finder window that comes up. Select OK and your photos will be exported to your flashdrive from your iPhoto library.
