How can i protect my computer from viruses and malware in China?

I will be in China for work, using my new Macbook, and using a Chinese server to access the internet. What are the best settings to protect my macbook from malware and other scary things?

The OSX already has defenses built in. Your biggest problem is downloading malware unwittingly. If you do not know what something is, do not download it.
You might look at this web site for some additional information regarding potential hazards to a Mac:

HOW CAN I PROTECT MY LABTOP FROM VIRUSES

look i be on my computer all the time i worry about viruses and i heard that you cant get viruses on apple products but if you can how can i get them off? and how can i clear up the trash that i dont want?

See my Mac Malware Guide for more info about how to protect yourself from malware.
As for clearing up trash you don't want, that sounds like a different question altogether. Unwanted apps are not viruses. Note that you should not use any kind of "cleaning" software (see The myth of the dirty Mac), nor should you use any kind of app removal utilities (eg, AppZapper, AppCleaner, etc). If you have apps you want to get rid of, drag them to the trash, unless they installed using an installer (in which case you must use the proper uninstaller from the developer of that app) or unless they are preinstalled Apple apps (never delete those).

If you are printing via a Windows shared printer and it is the Windows user account that you are being prompted for then you can save this in the Keychain, as shown below.

I have new iphone and all data were restored but my music! How can I add my music from Itunes and new iphone?

Connect the old phone to your computer, right click on it in iTunes, and choose Transfer Purchases. That should put all of your music in iTunes except any tracks that were not purchased from iTunes. If you have any such you will have to retrieve them from the original source, or see: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141.
Apple also has this tip for copying data from an old phone to a new one.
