I have FaceTime on my macbook pro but want to add it to my Mac pro.  Since I've already purchased the app, it won't allow me to purchase it again.  Can I use the app for both computers?  How can I access FaceTime for this computer v. 10.6.8?

I have FaceTime on my Macbook Pro but want to add it to my Mac Pro v. 10.6.8.  Since I've previously purchased it in the app store, it won't allow me to purchase it again.  Can I use the same app for both of my computers?  If so, how do I access the app to download it?

If you upgrade to Lion it comes bundeled with it!
To get it on your Mac Pro just copy the aplication from the aplication folder on your MacBook.  You can do this via a thumb drive or over a local network connection.

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • 2 computers at home working with the same files i keep on an external hard drive to free up space the internal drives. I have an airport extreme time capsule to back up both computers. how can i get it to back up the hard drive plugged into time capsual?

    I want to run both my macbook pro and imac from a single external hard drive.
    i bought a time capsual and set it us as my network and plugged my external hard drive into it. so now both my computers can access it and work on the same image and film files. the time capsual does a lovely job of backing up both my computers and my wifes. but i cant get it to back up the external hard drive that is conected to it. ive looked on the forum and it seems to me that its not possible, which seems odd to me that mac would enable you to plug a hard drive into the time capsual but not let you back it up, what is the point in that!?
    so my question is can i back up the external hard drive with time machine, and if not how do i set up my home network so that all my computers can access the same files and time machine will back everything up?
    I did the upgrade to maverics on my imac which has caused me a major headache as now all my apature albums have been updated to 3.5.1 but my macbook pro can no longer open them because im unable to upgade it to maverics, but thats another story.
    If anyone can help me with my time machine issue i would be very greatful.
    many thanks

    The TC for whatever it is promoted as,, is still a simple hard disk in a router. It was designed for laptops to use as a backup. A desktop can use a USB drive, faster cheaper and more reliable than a network drive but the laptops need a network wireless storage. Hence the TC. It is NOT nor was it ever designed to do the job you are trying to use it for.. it is not a NAS.. it has no internal backup.
    What is more Time Machine has no ability to backup network drives no matter what their format.
    So the solution is to either use a real backup software.. eg Carbon Copy Cloner which can do far more than TM can or ever will. It is around $40 so hardly expensive. But since the TC was never designed for it, this will be slow.. and the next question is where are you going to back to. Using the TC as backup location for your files is less than great. Primarily because all your files are still on the same device albeit on different disk. It is also because mixing data and TM backups is not so great. The TC cannot be partitioned although you can alleviate some of the issues..
    See this info.

    Let me go back to the question.
    so my question is can i back up the external hard drive with time machine, and if not how do i set up my home network so that all my computers can access the same files and time machine will back everything up?
    Fundamentally the TC is the wrong place to do this.
    The right place is to plug the USB drive into the iMac.. since it is a desktop machine and you are probably not lugging it around. Simply share the USB drive to the network.
    The MBP can then access the USB drive, and it will be around twice the speed of networking to the same drive on the TC. TM on the iMac can then also backup the USB drive to the TC as part of the normal TM backups.
    The only thing is the iMac needs to be turned on to allow MBP access.

  • HT1338 My MacBook Pro (running Leopard 10.5.8) won't allow keyboard to type an upper case 'C' using the shift key...works fine with caps lock, or, with my Typinator workaround using double-typed lower case c (not always best). Any ideas?

    My MacBook Pro keyboard won't type an upper case 'C' using the shift key... only with caps lock. Workaround has been to use Typinator by typing a double lower case c, not always the best solution. Mac is a refurbished model, which initially was fine. Apple tech helped me correct the quirk when it first appeared, but now it has returned and refuses fixes. Any ideas?

    I'm willing to bet that this has something to do with iCloud.  I've been facing a frozen computer nearly every time I go into it. 
    In Activity Monitor I have seen two programs associate with iCloud that take up about 2.5 GB of memory (I only have 4 in the computer) -- causing everything to freeze.  One of these is called "iCloud Helper" and the other one is something like "Address Book Sync helper" -- I see parts of these names in the stuff you have posted.
    I am at my wits' end with these and have written to Apple asking them to do away with these or fix them.  To get rid of the Address book sync thing I have gone into system preferences for iCloud and unchecked Contacts -- but then spontaneously it gets rechecked.  And oftentimes after I Force Quit the iCloud helper, it spontaneously turns on again.  My conclusion --- the iCloud is basically unusable.  It turns a Mac into the most useless, clogged, sluggish PC.  If this is happening to a lot of people's computers -- and I see no reason why yours or mine should be an exception -- these programs just might destroy Apple itself. 
    So -- I'm about to completely give up on iCloud, and I suspect that others will too unless this gets fixed.

  • I have music on two apple id's, I paid for both. How can I consolidate them and not go back and forth?

    I need help to get my music from both my apple id's into my music.
    Will iTunes ever consolidate what I paid for?

    Sorry, but merging of iTunes Store accounts/Apple IDs, if that's what you're asking, is not currently possible. Whether it ever will be is something none of us here can say.
    Regards.

  • I have merged mobile me to iCloud but still cannot change preferences on my Mac Pro.

    I had mobile me (family plan) and I upgraded to icloud last night. My phone and ipad are using iclould fine, but when I go to the preference pane in MAC OSX it still comes up with the screen that has the button that says "move to icloud" .   If I hit that button it takes me to the mobile me find my iphone, then if I type my password it takes me to a page with a button that says Open icloud...which I do.....then it opens icloud. Seems to be ready to go but everytime I try to go to preferences it starts at the beginning all over again....anyone have any idea why this is happening?

    Your signature says you have 10.6.1 - is this correct? iCloud won't work on that, it requires 10.7.2. (If your signature isn't correct, please amend it - it makes a considerable difference to some answers depending on what system you have.)

  • My camera/iSight is apparently disabled--can't use Skype or Photo Booth. How can I fix this?

    I went to Apps/Utilities/System Profiler/USB and do not see camera listed. Based on an earlier found on Support Communities info, I tried shutting down, holding control-option-command and power button, letting go, then powering on again. No luck. Any ideas appreciated.

    Check out the following thread:
    my isight camera is not working-not recognised with photo booth or ichat
    =========== 
    To fix your iSight, shut down computer. Reboot in safe mode (press power button and then hold shift key down). After computer boots, restart again.  Hopefully, your iSight will start working again.

    You will have to buy Snow Leopard:
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order. You also should find it at your local Apple retailers.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.

  • HT1222 Can you use the same authorization code for QT Pro on two computers? Or do you have to buy a code for each computer

    An Apple ID is a user name you use for everything you do with Apple. Creating an account for an Apple service, such as the iTunes Store or the App Store, creates an Apple ID. Apple ID allows you to access other Apple services.   So you can use the same Apple ID for up to 10 Macs associated with it.
    To create an Apple ID you need to enter  your full name and your primary email address as your Apple ID. This will be used as the contact email address for your account.
