I've been lurking here for months and just got my new MBP 15" tonight. My first computer was a powermac, then have had a HP laptop the last 6 years.
I've spent 4 hours now with my new, highly anticipated MBP and I'm underwhelmed!
Massive difficulty loading NX2 ( This is after unsuccessfully trying to download software for my MX revolution logitech mouse). Well, after being required to enter my MBP administrator password countless times during the installs of View NX, Nikon transfer and NX2 (what is up with that, please tell me that is a default that can be changed or I'm returning this for sure), View NX stalls and closes- I can see some of my photos, NX2 seems to be OK except won't recognise any of the photo files-it can't read them...
Anyway, I've restarted and had to hard boot a few times, lost my cursor once. Not what I was expecting from Mac; honestly have not had any problems like this with my HP. It was a lot more intuitive to learn the ropes...
Sorry for venting but I thought it might be useful to see how frustrating it is for someone new to Mac, after all these years...I'm really in shock how much difficulty I've had so far. Not yet pleased with my very expensive purchase...
Well, if you have advice on NX2, getting it to work, let me know.
Thanks,
Michael
PS I paid for 1 on 1 and boy will I need it to even get this thing functional or to guide me in the returns process! This is written on my trusty HP!
