Sign into the App Store with your Apple ID. App Store should be in the Dock.

  • I just bought a Macbook Pro do I get the iWork update for free?

    I bought my Macbook Pro on Monday (7/23/12) and now 2 days later they have come out with Mountain Lion and iWork update. I know I get the Mountain Lion update for free but do I also get the iWork update for free. If so, how?

    If your system is only 2 days old, you may have the most recent version of iWork. Just run Software Update to be sure.

  • I have just bought a MacBook Pro..13".. the graphics are all screwwed up. I can't get it to come around with the onboard adjustments. which and how to I install new Graphic INTeL 4000 drivers ?????

    Well no one out there. I hate to have to take this 13" Mac Book Pro back , get my money back . Seems I'll have to. This is about the third time I have asked for help from Mac (APPLE) and I never hear back from them..

    Does that problem happen with some applications? If so, the problem is that you are using applications that are not designed for Retina display. The developer should have done that months ago.
    If that's your problem, first check that your applications are updated. If you want to make them look better, you can decrease resolution in System Preferences > Displays, but do not worry, because this does not mean that your MacBook Pro is damaged.
    However, if you cannot use your Mac because the GPU is not working correctly, you have to return it and get another one

  • I just bought a macbook pro which worked amazingly the first few days. But now it runs worse than my old computers. How can I fix this?

    I've barely had it for a week and its starting to run slow. Wepages take forever to load and its impossible top watch any videos online. I am connected wirelessly. My other much older laptop is working fine on this connection and for a few days my Macbook Pro was lightning fast. Now it runs slower than my 3 year old laptop. Also some videos tend to get choppy when I move the mouse. The audio, however, continues uninterrupted.  The laptop also started taking some time to shut down. I bought this open-box from Bestbuy. And right now Im realizing that this is actually a Macbook Pro Mid 2010 after looking up the specs which is strange as the box it was in says 2012.
    Processor: 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory: 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 288 MB
    Software OS X Lion 10.7.3
    Macbook HD: 731.83 GB free out of 749.3 GB.
    Could the problem be that this is a 2010 laptop? I can still return it as its been a week.
    I've cleared the cache, cookies, and history but it has little effect on the way videos and pages load.

    Where did you buy this laptop?  I know if I opened a box expecing and having paid for a 2012 model and found a 2010 model, I'd be back at the store demanding an exchange quicker than you could imagine.  Open box or not, if you thought you were buying a 2012 model, you should get what you paid for.

  • Just bought a MacBook Pro 15 Inch with the 2.53 Ghz (Fan Issue)

    Hi, this is my second macbook pro and I am wondering if this is an issue or not. Ever since I opened it out of the box a few days ago, the right side of the laptop is slightly louder (the fan) than the left fan. It is not an abnormal noise (its a natural sound of the fan spinning) but its slightly louder. They are both currently running at 2000 RPM default (from istat widget) but I am wondering if this is normal. My first macbook pro (2009) is quieter.
    Is an SMC reset necessary for a 3 day old macbook pro or some other solution? If anything is wrong, then I shall return it for another one with 14 days.
    Please help, thank you!

    I believe the fans are independently controlled, so if you are doing something processor intensive the fan over the CPU would undoubtedly be running more than the one over the GPU. Judging that it's your 2nd MBP, it's probably normal.

  • Have a mac mini and just bought a macbook pro

    i have an 09 mac mini and just bought a macbook pro today... i was wondering if there is anything i could do between the two of them, like wireless connections or something... i'm not asking to use the macbook pro as a monitor or anything like that, just wanted to know if there were any cool things i didn't know about that i could do between the 2...thanks-bruce

    Bruce you can do a lot but you need to be specific. Your question is so general it's impossible to get an idea what you have interest in doing. However the first place I'd start is looking into sharing on your System Preferences and before you start punching in preferences get yourself a book at a bookstore about OS X and study a little on sharing and OS X in general. However to get you started read this:

  • I just bought my macbook pro and it's charged up to 100% and is still plugged in but now shows the battery at 98%.  How is this possible when it's plugged in to the charger and the green light is on?

    I just bought my macbook pro and it's charged up to 100% and is still plugged in but now shows the battery at 98%.  How is this possible when it's plugged in to the charger and the green light is on?

    The system regularly lets the battery drop to about 95% when on the charger, then recharges to 100%.  This lets the batery exercise "just a little" all of the time and saves the recharge curcuits from overuse.
    Regualr occurence for me.
    Also ... you need to let your battery work at least once per month.  Let it run down to 40%, but not less if you can at all avoid it.  Running thr battery fully dead will shorten the battery life significantly.

    I just bought a macbook pro and want to use my own iCloud account for my iPhone. How do I sign off of the current account on my iPhone and sign in with my own iCloud account i set up my mac?

    On your phone, Go to "Settings", "iCloud", scroll to the bottom and "sign out."  Assuming you have the the account password/security info of the current account, it will delete everything iCloud related upon your approval (don't worry, everything will remain in the cloud.)  Once signed out, in the same settings location (under "Settings", "iCloud") sign in using your Apple ID and Password.
    Hope this helps.

    Try the other USB port. If it still doesn't show up in Disk Utility then there may be something wrong with your Mac. Try something else in each USB port and see if it is seen. If the other thing, like a USB thumb drive, does show up in disk utiltiy then the USB ports are fine.
    Power down the system and restart with the drive connected, go to DU and see it it is seen.

    I've just bought a Macbook Pro 15" and I'm trying to use Photoshop, but the resolution its displaying the images at for 100% are too small. I have to design for the web, so need to be intricate with detail, but I'm finding it adjusts the resolution of the image right down. (I mean you can see the image clearly, but it's too small to edit). When I look at Safari and see a web page at 100% it's clear, but the same page displayed in Photoshop CC appears 50% of the size (even though it says it's 100%)   If I move the application window to another screen it adjusts it correctly  – leaving all the pallettes, menus and tools correctly sized as they are on the retina display   Is there some way to adjust the way Photoshop CC displays images so it is more consistent with what you actually see?   There doesn't seem to be any answer on the Adobe forum, so hopefully someone here can shed some light.  MacBook Pro with Retina display, 15", OS X Yosemite (10.10.2), Photoshop CC 2014

    I tested both ways. With "open in low resolution" ckecked the size of the images is cool, but it is low-resolution including Photoshop appearance.
    If "open in low resolution" is unckecked the appearance is good but the very small size.
    See the image below. It has 650 x 732 px, 72 dpi. The font of the text "Neste aniversário ..." is with 18pt.

    Tunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you use iTunes default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
    Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
    Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
    Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
    You can re-download your available previous purchases.

    Why did you mark your post as solved?
    You will be better off posting in either the Lion or the iPhoto forum areas as this area is for Macbook Pro issues.  You are having software issues.
