How to Connect a MacBook to a Dell External Monitor


Check to see if your Dell monitor has a VGA or DVI connection. VGA is an older technology, but many monitors have adapters for both connection and include two cables: one VGA and one DVI. Likewise, check your MacBook to see if it has a DVI or Mini DisplayPort jack. Locate the appropriate adapter if required.
Confirm that both the MacBook and the external Dell monitor are powered down. Attach the video cable to the Dell monitor. The other end must be attached to the MacBook, either directly or using the adapter.
Confirm that the adapter and cable are seated properly. Make sure that the connection area is out of the way of anything that might knock it out of place or possibly damage the adapter and/or computer by bending the pins.
Turn on the Dell monitor first and the MacBook second. When the computer is finished booting up, you will see the desktop on both displays.
Launch the System Preferences (found inside the Applications folder) and click on 'Displays.' A 'Display' pane will appear on both the MacBook screen and on the Dell monitor screen. Note that you can configure the resolution of each of these displays separately.
Select a suitable resolution for each of the displays. Then click on the 'Arrangement' tab on the pane on the Mac screen. This is when you decide how you want to configure the arrangement of your displays. You can drag the Dell display to either side of the Mac display to extend the desktop, or you can select “Mirror Displays,” which is usually enabled when you plan on using the external monitor as the main display.
Drag the menu bar from the Mac display to the Dell display in the 'Arrangement' pane if you want to use the Dell as your primary display and have the Mac menus on the external monitor. You can also configure the color on both displays by clicking on the “Color” tab.

How to Clean MacBook Pro Keyboard With Vacuum


Open the shell of your MacBook Pro. Push the screen back so that you have full access to the keyboard.
Turn off the power of the computer completely. Also disconnect the power adapter from the side of the computer as a safety precaution.
Set your handheld vacuum, or your larger floor vacuum, to its lowest setting. If you are using a hose attached to a larger floor vacuum, attach the fibrous brush attachment to the end of the hose. This will help protect your keys from the hard plastic of the hose.
Hold the small vacuum about half an inch above the keyboard and make straight, slow passes across each row of keys. If you are using the fibrous hose attachment, feel free to pass over the keys with it for maximum dust suction.
Continue dusting until the entire keyboard is clean. You might clean stray dust particles from the screen and other parts of the computer's body using the same technique.

How to Test a MagSafe DC


Turn the laptop on. Let the desktop appear on the screen. Shut down the laptop once the battery icon in the upper right corner of the screen states that there is less than 50% power remaining.
Rotate the laptop counterclockwise so that you can see the MagSafe DC-input depression at the upper left inside edge.
Plug the power cord attached to the MagSafe’s power supply into a wall outlet. Place the MagSafe connector up against the depression. Let go once you feel the magnetic attraction that is holding the MagSafe connector against the depression.
Turn the laptop on. Do nothing until the laptop’s operating system brings up the desktop. Note that the icon of the battery in the upper right corner of the screen is displaying a “lightning” slash through the battery icon. Write down the percentage of battery power being displayed.
Leave the laptop undisturbed for an hour. Note whether the percentage of the battery power has increased or not. If there is no increase in the percentage, the laptop’s DC-input board is not receiving any electricity from the MagSafe connector. If the percentage has increased, the opposite is true.
