One purchase is sufficient if both computers are owned by you and the ML version was purchased as an upgrade.

My Parallels program is now not working since upgrading my MacBook Pro to OS X Mountain Lion. I was wondering if there is a solution to getting this working again?
You just need to update it to the latest version. See:

I have bought and downloaded iPhoto 11 onto my MacPro. Do I have to buy it again to download it onto my MacBookPro?
No just log into the App Store from the MBP and use the same Apple ID.
You;re allowed to load the software onto as many Apple computers than you own.

It looks like the Brother MFC-3360 can only print/fax with a MacBook Pro which stinks that it cannot scan ( a function on the MFC that worked on my Dell laptop). Do i need to get another MFC that works with apple?! who faxes anymore? i need to scan and email the documents, not print and fax. this is a very unpleasant surprise.
Brother have released compatible Lion drivers and utilities for your MFC-3360.
They are here, download and install them, -
Hello, I recently bought a refurbished macbook pro which serial no is C1******H2G. I can't open this coz I was not provided with any admin password. Point to note here I have not any operating system CD also. Now how can I unlock my macbook pro ??
< Personal Information Edited By Host >Who did you purchase the MBP from. They should have the password.
An early 2011 MBP probably came with Snow Leopard. Use the original OSX disks and reinstall 10.6.
There is a possibility that it came with Lion (10.7). In that case boot the MBP holding the OPTION+COMMAND+R keys. That should connect you to the Apple servers and install the original OSX.

If I buy an Imac now how do i upgrade when mountain lion is released
If I buy an Imac now how do i upgrade when mountain lion is released
The same way most of us upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion last summer. Perform one last backup just in case. Make sure all important software is up to date. Download the new OS from the Mac Apple Store. Run and wait until the installer finishes.
That's the short version. If you do a little searching with Google you'll find Macworld did a very nice upgrade article for Lion and I'm certain 99% of it will apply to ML as well. -
downloaded mt lion on my iMac, now when i start the computer my outlook email automatically opens. When I right click on the mail icon it isn't checked to open on startup. How do i correct this
This is probabaly caused by the resume feature. When you log out, uncheck the box that appears.

upgraded my macbook pro to mountain lion from snow leopard does this mean i can upgrade my imac as well for the same price? And will it mess it up?
You can upgrade the iMac for no extra charge - sign into the App Store there, download and install 10.8.
I recommend that you make a backup (Time Machine is probably the easiest method) before you install, and make sure that you are not using any applications that are incomptible with 10.8 (eg Office 2004) - other than that, it should go smoothly.

Since I have installed Lion onto my iMac it's impossible to to copy any video file from the mac to an external support (ups-stick, Timecapsule). What's happened? What can I do?
If you just did upgrade Lion, give it some time. I recall having similar problems and some articles mention heavy background work after install - such as re-indexing for Spotlight etc. I couldn't even copy from folder to folder or e.g. iphoto to folder on the same disk. Went away after a day or two though.
I do however still have a problem with AFP access to one of the lion machines - kills it's network adaptors rather quickly. No luck solving this so far :| -

Download it again, don't install again and the file (Lion Installer.app) will be in your applications folder.
It is deleted after installation, that's why it can't be found. -
HT201316 I have downloaded lion on my imac, how do I install on my macbook?
I have downloaded lion on my imac, how do I install on my macbook?
If you purchased and downloaded Lion from the Appstore on the iMac, Sign into the MacApp store using the same AppleID on the Macbook. Look in the Purchased tab and it sould be available for download.
You'll need to have 10.6.8 on your macbook first as App store support isn't available on 10.5 -
I replaced my 2010-2011 iMac internal HD i dont have an install disk i created one with my external HD but when i go to install lion onto my imac it stays at the apple logo screen.HELP ME PLEASE!
Boot from the original Install disc that came with the computer and then format the drive Mac OS Extended (Journaled) using the GUID partition. Then you can re-install OS X. If you no longer have the original media call AppleCare with the serial number of the machine (look on the bottom of the stand) and for a nominal fee they will ship you replacement media.
The chances are very good you will have fan problems if you used an off-the-shelf HD, beginning in 2009 Apple began using HD's from vendors that incorporated heat sensors into the HD. If you did not buy the same type of HD your computer will think the HD is overheating causing the fans to run at full speed. -
Is it safe to download google chrome onto my imac?
Isz it safe for me to download google chrome onto my imac. And can someone help me with Adobe flash and Abode reader, which one should I download and way.
You can install as many web browsers as you like, but you probably don't want them all running at the same time so they don't hog your RAM.
The link I gave you is to the Adobe site, the only safe place to download Flash.
To summarise - if you only used Chrome you wouldn't need a separate installation of Flash and could uninstall it using Adobe Flash Player Install Manager which is located in your Utilities folder.
Of course, if you do uninstall it you wouldn't be able to view Flash content if you decided to use Safari or any other browser that doesn't have Flash built-in.
To stop Flash downloading automatically go to System Preferences>Flash Player and reeview your settings under the Advanced tab. I have mine set to 'Notify me to install updates' - this ensures that you keep up-to-date with Flash, but you should always be wary of what you're installing - don't just update without verifying what you're about to do.
