Macbook: How do I uninstall a game on the macbook? I need to reinstall the game for it to work, but I can't figure out how to uninstall the game to begin with.

I need to reinstall the game for it to work, but I can't figure out how to uninstall the game to begin with. I know that in Windows, there is an "Uninstall" option, but I have found no such option on the Macbook.

This is one OS X's few weak spots. For most software, it is sufficient to drag the application out of the Applications folder and into the trash. Of course, this does not delete its preference files, etc, but these are usually pretty small, and can either be left in place or deleted separately.
Some software might ship with a separate uninstaller utility that you can run. Sometimes, the package installer can also perform uninstalling, too.
You can buy general purpose uninstaller utilities, but as far as I know they won't work for software already installed; only for software installed once the uninstaller is in place.
Perhaps the safest option is to contact the company that made the game and ask them how it should be uninstalled.

I bought the photoshop install online and I put it on my laptop. But now I have a new and better computer for photo and video but I can not figure out how to reinstall my photoshop on this new computer. When I bought it, they said I would be able to install it on 2 different computers. PS they are both PC computers.

HT3235 My second monitor is working but I can't figure out how to use it! I can't get anything to drag. I know how to adjust extended desktops on PCs but I can't figure this one out.

I am used to working on duel monitors. I bought a new MacBook Pro 15' yesterday, the adapter for my monitor, and the monitor is on with the generic background but I can't drag any windows over to it. I can do it on PCs but can't figure out on the Mac. Can someone please help the noob out?
Thanks

The blue blocks in that screen are Icons for your actual screens. Their sizes are proprtional to the number of pixels in each screen. They can be dragged to new locations relative to each other -- as long as they are touching at some point. You are expected to drag them so that they correspond with the actual screen location on your bench, so that the movement from one scrren to the other is intuitive.
The white stripe represents the menuBar. It can also be dragged to any screen, and that screen will then be the one with the MenuBar. It will also become the screen with the Startup icons on it.

I am trying to project a slide show from a video projector. The music is working but I can't figure out how to get the slide-show picture to project on the screen. Help!

I am trying to project a slideshow onto a large screen from a video projector at school. I get the music, but no picture is projected. I can see the slideshow from the computer screen. Can someone help, please.

Hello,
Although not as simple as it should be you can use a program like "Grab" to take a screenshot of the frame in the preview window in iMovie.

Hi. I just downloaded "angry birds" from the iTunes store. It says it was successfully downloaded and that I can use it on the two mac products I have. I can see an icon for it in the finder on the mac, but I can't figure out how to play the game. Anyone?

Thank you for your reply. After a lot of fruitless searches, I hit on a page that offered the same wisdom you did. I feel like rather a fool for not knowing that. Grr. I really appreciate your answer, and that you didn't end it with "dummy." Cheers to you. Hope someone does something kind for you today.

How do I use GarageBand as a amp/speaker to listen to my Electronic Drum set? I have a MIDI-USB cord already but I can't figure out how to listen to my set through the software using my computer speakers?

If you want to listen to the sounds of your drum set, you should use an audio cable and connect it to the computer's line-in, then create a real instrument track.
If you use a Midi/USB interface, you'll have to create a software instrument track and select one of GB's drumsets as the instrument. Hopefully your drumset's midi notes are mapped to the right sounds in GB.

I gifted a ringtone to my sister that I purchased from the iTunes store, and it is on her phone, but we can't figure out how to get it moved to her ringtones. Can anyone help?

Edit > Preferences. Select the check box for Ringtones, this will add them to the listing in iTunes.
Not sure that really answers your question though.

My iPod is a 2008 version. I just bought a new iMac. My iphone and my ipad are connected to the ne w computer , but I can't figure out how to register my old device on the new computer

I have a 2008 IPod , Just bought a new IMAC. My iphone and ipad are registered but I can't figure out how to add the old ipod.

What have you tried?
What happens?
Error message?
What does it say?
Have you copied everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one?

A while back I made a gamecenter account that was not associated with an Apple ID, it was with my email, now my gamecenter account IS my Apple ID. I want to delete it and make a new one, but i can't figure out how. Help!

Since you can't delete Apple IDs and having multiple Apple IDs can cause confusion, what you may want to do is rename your existing Apple ID to the new email (desired Apple ID). That would in effect do what you want, get rid of the old and give you the new.

HT201209 i have credit in my account but i can not figure out how to buy a song

I am new at the Itunes store.   I bought a prepaid card. Bought 1 song. I don't remember how I did that. Now I have a balance available and I would like to buy other songs. But I can not figure out how to do it at all. I have been trying for 2 hours.   Can someone please give me detailed Steps on what to do . I want to buy some songs. Put it on a Playlist and download them to a Cd.   thanks

I go to HOME
I go to MY WISH LIST
I see the songs I want to buy and the price at the end.   If I scoll down from the price ... there is no BUY OPTION.
There is GIFT IT and Add to Wishlist.... but nothing about Buy.
Is this because it is in my wish list.   should I just start over. and go one song at a time .??

I just downloaded the new iOS 5.0 and did all of the backup prompted steps beforehand, but I can't figure out how to get all of my apps and music back on my iPhone. Where did they go and how can I put them back on my iPhone?

Hi, Abril_Perez17.
This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default. Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music. See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled. This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.

How do i get the phone to ring when someone calls, it seems to only vibrate and I can't figure out how to turn on the ringer

how do i get the phone to ring when someone calls, it seems to only vibrate and I can't figure out how to turn on the ringer

look in settings:sounds and be sure you have a ring tone set, and both vibrate buttons are off. Also be sure the volume slider id as far right as is comfortable.

When recording voiceovers, I click the stop recording button at the end, but I can't figure out how to get rid of the "click" sound before I send off the recording!

Had me stumped for a while too ...
On the screen that presents all your "Blank" documents, simply touch the word "Blank" under the preview (not the actual preview) and you'll get a dialogue to name your document.

HT4859 On i-cloud, I have my contacts backed up off my i-phone, but i can't figure out how to back up calendar, notes & mail

On my i-phone, my contacts are backed up on i-cloud, That seemed to have happened automatically, but I can't figure out how to set up so that my calendar, notes & mail are also backed up.

Contacts, as well as calendar, notes, mail, are NOT included in an icloud backup. They reside in their own databases on icloud.
