If I already purchased FaceTime for Mac and recently upgraded my HD. How can I retrieve that app again? I found it in my Time Machine back up, but the files won't work. Please help.

Nope. I do the same exact thing. If you have DVD's and blu-rays you can't download a free application called Handbrake. You can set it to Apple TV2 automatic format and they will come out as playable m4v's that can play I'm iTunes. All you have to do is turn on Home Sharing in both iTunes and your Apple RV and you'll be good to go!

I have a macbook pro i bought from someone and I need to clear all this other persons info, i don't have a the cd by the way so thats the challenge I'm against. its a early 2011 macbook pro 8.1 and it has 10.6.6 snow leopard on it and i would like to get it to mountain lion but didn't know if downloading that would clear the memory as well? any ideas?...
1: Backup any data off the machine. Download the free MacTracker
2: Apple menu > About this Mac > More Info > Macbook Pro 3,1 or like model number, punch it into Mactracker.
3: Find out what OS X version came originally on your machine. how far you can go.
Things to consider before upgrading OS X
4: Inexpensive. $ If < 10.6.3, then order the 10.6.3 disks by calling Apple via phone.
5: More money $$. If > 10.6.2 then call Apple ia phone for the machine specific versions as the 10.6.3 retail version won't work.
6: Follow these links to wipe and install
How do I securely delete data from the machine?
How to erase and install Snow Leopard 10.6
7: Run Software update to get to 10.6.8
8: Check hardware requirements for 10.7 or 10.8 using MacTracker , install more RAM if need be. $$$$.
9: Optional, more $$$. Run AppStore and install 10.8, or call Apple for 10.7 (better stay on 10.6 if 10.7 is the best you can do)
Must follow about using the disks to wipe the machine of previous owners data squirreled all over the thing.
Only thing "free" is the advice. -
I am also no longer able to back up using Time Machine (backups fail), can't access iPhoto (which was a problem before attempting to reload OS) and I suspect other apps are no longer working. The computer is however running faster in Safari and Mail...any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
If there are any files you can transfer to a regular storage drive do that first and then disconenct all drives.
Hold c boot off the 10.6.8 disk and use Disk Utility to Erase with Zero option the hard drive, takes some time, let it complete as it's mapping off any bad or failing sectors.
Then install 10.6. log in and update to 10.6.8 (important!)
Now use Migration Assistant to transfer over just your user files, we need to rescue those first out of TimeMachine's EVIL clutches, once you've got that, transfer them to the regular storage drive and disconnect.
Note: if your 10.6 disk fails, call Apple for a replacement, you need the machine specific version, the 10.6.3 retial doesn't have iLife and only works for machines pre 10.6.3 release, not afterwards. Factory installed 10.6.4 machines and afterwards need machine specific disks.
Then either:
Log into the admin/first set up user on the machine and delete the Migrated user, then reboot and use Migration assistant again to TM everything this time
Or
Just install all your programs again from fresh sources.
If your TM drive is really hosed, then you'll need Data Rescue $99 to read the TM files directly and transfer the results to another regular storage drive (not the first one just in case), then pick through the debris and locate your files and transfer them to another drive.
I don't like TimeMachine, but for newbies it's better than nothing.
(I prefer cloning my entire OS X parititon instead, I can access it from any computer (Linux, Mac or PC) and I also can boot my Mac from it. I use Carbon Copy Cloner, but that's for later once your all better. ) -

I upgraded to iOS 8 from 7 but the dictionary is not working. please help.
the moment I upgraded to iOS 8 I cannot refer to dictionary. no word found error is coming. this is happening. in iPad mini retina, cellullar and wifi model.
Just want to say that my 1st gen iPad Air is having the same problem. I get word not found error when I use my dictionary. There's an option to install dictionary. Have you tried that? I'd like to add that if you successfully add a dictionary, don't be surprised if the installed dictionary is missing sometime in the future. That's what happens to my iPad and a friend's iPhone 6 Plus. Our devices keep forgetting US English dictionary that we've installed. We both run iOS 8 (mine is 8.1.2 and my friend's is iOS 8.1.3).

You should check with the software publisher. Although you will need a separate iPad version of the program, some publishers make the iPad version cheap or even free, knowing that you have to buy the Mac or PC version to get the most out of the iPad version.

I Have followed all the steps and still cant remove iCloud to my existing account and add to the new one, the old email account was changed a year ago and cant get that email plus the password don't work please HELP!
Welcome to the Apple community.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

I can't hear on Facetime for Mac and other people can't hear me. I recently downloaded Boom and I'm not sure whether it's the problem or not.
Remove it according to the developer's instructions and see whether there's an improvement. Back up all data before making any changes.
