Hello!
I'm wondering how one would go about installing games (in my case Skyrim) onto one of the new retina display MacBook Pros when it has a flash drive in he place of a superdrive. Would I have to buy an external superdrive to be able to install it? Is there some other way that I'm just unaware of?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
MacBook Pro
unless it can be downloaded directly online, purchasing an external superdrive to load the disk seems to be the only option.
Youll need windows on your mac as well, dont think theres a mac version of skyrim (would be sweet if there was though)
A.) You'll need to have a non-upgrade copy of Windows to play Skyrim, the non-upgrade version of Windows is a tad more expensive. I don't believe that game is supported in Mac OS X.
B.) You have a few options for an optical drive.
1.) Go out and purchuse an external disc drive (or the Apple SuperDrive).
2.) See if the game is available via online downloads.
3.) You can also share the disc drive of another Mac or PC with your MacBook Pro with Retina display on the same Wi-Fi network. It's a fairly easy process.

How do you install Skyrim on to Retina MBP without a superdrive?
