With the new purchase of my MacBook Pro retina, the Mac AppStore think that I've purchased iLife, therefor I can't update iLife apps, it asks me to sign in with the Apple ID that it thinks I purchased it with.

I have recently purchased the new Macbook pro retina and while updating the preinstalled (free) iPhoto & iMovie, a message shows saying: To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it. And obviously i haven't purchased them. Tried everything I know, not sure what els to do.

  • I downloaded the new iphoto to my macbook pro. Now when I open it, there is a message telling me that "your photo library is damaged or unreadable and cannot be opened. Please restore from a backup." What do I do I had 16,000 pictures.....PLEASE HELP!!!!!

    I downloaded the new iphoto to my macbook pro. Now when I open it, there is a message telling me that "your photo library is damaged or unreadable and cannot be opened. Please restore from a backup." What do I do I had 16,000 pictures.....PLEASE HELP!!!!!

    Try download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. 

  • Recently got a new iPod 4th gen; I had previously backed up to iCloud and subscribed to iTunes Match, and then wound up syncing the new iPod to my MacBook Pro; all iCloud tunes were downloaded to Mac but won't all sync to the iPod - any suggestions?

    Recently got a new iPod Touch 4th gen; I had previously backed up to iCloud and subscribed to iTunes Match, and then wound up syncing the new iPod to my MacBook Pro; all iCloud tunes were downloaded to Mac but won't all sync to the iPod after multiple attempts, despite all songs showing properly on the Mac and multiple syncs occurring after all songs were properly reflected on the Mac.  I updated iTunes Match from the iTunes Store menu as well pre-sync.
    I should mention that I had previously had the library on a Dell (which is still running) and shared it on my home network.  While all iTunes purchases now show in the Dell, the Mac is the device I use for all syncs. 
    There appears to be no rhyme or reason to the iCloud physical sync failure - some songs were legacy, some were purchased via the PC, some on the old iPod.
    The Mac shows all the songs correctly and none show iCloud status -all have been downloaded, but the downloaded songs that were previously showing up as iCloud based aren't syncing to the iPod.
    Is there any way to force all music being seen by my iPod as iCloud to download to so I can listen to them offline?  Is there a way to force the sync from iTunes?

    The "system" performed as designed. All devices syncing to one iCloud account are kept in common sync. The idea is that all such devices belong to one user. Different users should have different iCloud accounts.  Once your contacts were edited, all devices were updated as well and subsequent backups (from yours and her device) reflected the changed contacts (and any other data that may have been edited like calendars). Your first task is to change your daughter over to a new account before she makes other changes.
    The only way I see for getting back contacts is to restore them from a time machine backup, assuming you also have a Mac included in the account which syncs the contacts. However, I'm not sure whether time machine includes contacts from iCloud along with those that are local, "on my Mac".
    Otherwise the deleted contacts are gone.

    10-27-13 I downloaded the new OS to my MacBook Pro. Now, when I address an email, it puts the address in there twice. How do I stop that, please? Thank you

    Thank ypu for your thought.
    Yes, I do have it turned.
    When I type the first few letters of the address, it shows the correct address. When I hit <enter>, the name appears in the address section twice. Only began to happen after the downloaded update.

    I'd say your sister messed up and your iPod is toasted.
    Think about it...  She plugged it in to another computer, she doesn't remember what she did (yeah, right), and now your iPod is not being recognized by your computer... 
    Also take into consideration how old is your sister, and how much does she know about electronics?

  • Help require with installing Adobe Acrobat onto my Macbook Pro Retina.

    Help require with installing Adobe Acrobat onto my Macbook Pro Retina.
    I have successfully installed all of my creative cloud apps with the exception being acrobat.
    I cannot print from Indesign to PDF.
    I have unistalled, reinstalled and still no Adobe Acrobat.
    I now have to go back to Windows 8 and create the PDF's there.
    Any one know how to get around this issue?
    Thanks in advance
    Kelvin

    OSX has effectively killed the ability to print to pdf, (print to pdf eliminates most of the "Rich features" of current pdf).
    Export from InDesign, always, excpet for the 1% of the time where you know why print to pdf would produce a better result.

  • Has anyone else had the screws fall out of the bottom of 2012 2013 Macbook Pro Retina?

    Apple tried to repair my Macbook Pro Retina when I first got it. They took the back off, replaced the motherboard (which was not the problem), and returned it to me the next day (via FedEx). When I got the machine back, half of the screws on the back shell were falling out... and one was in crooked. Apple told me to take my machine to the authorized computer repair place to have the screws tightened. The screws were tightened and now, they are falling out again! I've read about needed some sort of locktight product to put the screws back in. I don't understand why an authorized repair place would not do this the first time! Can you tell me what the process should be on replacing the screws in the bottom (shell) of the Macbook Pro Retina? I've heard that the shell should be replaced when the new screws are put in. Is this true? (I have AppleCare and will take my machine in next week for repair.... again!) Thanks!

    The first repair (when they thought logic board was bad) was a mail-in to Apple. They are the ones that did not re-apply the screws properly and they were falling out when I took computer out of the cardboard shipping box. Called Apple. They said take it to Computer Guys (only auth Apple repair here). Now, a new Mac store in the mall has opened. I think I will take it there this time since it was not done properly at the Computer Guys last time (however, Apple didn't put them back in properly in the FIRST place! Gee. I have Applecare and will stay with Apple repair only. Thanks! I appreciate everyone's input. It has been really helpful! The only reason I have not taken it to an Apple Store is because it is 3 hours away. I will see what this new Mac store has to offer. Oh... and, Apple Support did absolutely nothing for me! Did not even apologize for not fixing it properly the first time... and costing me time and money (as my computer is part of my job). Thanks again! Did Apple do this on purpose to keep us from repairing our own machines? I've seen so many complaints online and I imagine there will be more to come as the machines age and people try to make repairs themselves. Crazy.

  • The Logic Board of my MacBook Pro Retina Display stopped working.

    I purchased my MacBook Pro Retina Display 13 months ago. Barring a few errors the computer functioned beautifully, and I maintained it with the care it deserved. On Wednesday, last week, the laptop ceased to work completely. It wouldn't start, or charge. On submitting it for repair, I was informed that the logic board failed. Since its warranty lapsed a month ago, $1050 is required for its replacement. That outrageous amount is more than half of what I paid initially for the laptop. The service provider would not agree to any concession, or plea.
    For an Apple enthusiast, it is very disheartening to learn that its foremost product stops operating in this manner. I am a high school senior, who has accustomed himself to his computer, and cannot at this time purchase a new laptop, let alone a Windows laptop. With college admission deadlines fast approaching, I solicit your help and suggestions, very desparately.

    As much as it will suck to hear this answer, there really is no solution. Because the computer is now out of warranty, you have to pay the full $1050 to get the logic board replaced. I know this is a large sum of money, but you have to remember that the logic board includes the CPU, Graphics Card and RAM, all soldered onto the board. You're paying to replace all of the most expensive components of your computer, even if only one of them failed.
    So, long story short, you'll have to either pay to replace the logic board, because it's out of warranty, or buy a new computer.

  • What's the best case for my Macbook Pro Retina? College Student.

    I have a 13 inch Macbook Pro Retina and since I will be going to college next year I am looking to protect my laptop. Any suggestions on cases or anything? Thank you!!

    I wouldn't bother. The case is a tough, metal shell.
    Putting any sort of covering over that is just going to attract dirt, dust and possibly interfere with cooling.

  • Where are the Dual Microphones on 15" MacBook Pro Retina Late 2013?

    I have just bought a 15inch macbook pro retina late 2013. on the site it mentiones that on the side there are dual microphones but no matter how hard and close i look at the side where the two thunderbolts, headphone jack, USB and Magsafe are i can not see them!!!
    any one else have this issue, have i missed something???? have apple decided to cover these two little holes?

    There might be some confusion about the dual array microphone:
    http://www.gottabemobile.com/2013/12/03/13-inch-macbook-pro-retina-review-late-2 013/
    "For video chats Apple includes a dual array microphone, with both microphones sitting on the left side of the notebook."
    That's those two tiny black dots on the left side. Must be some kind of phased array to track multiple people talking like for FaceBook.
    However there is a stereo microphone input:
    http://www.cnet.com/how-to/record-through-your-macbooks-headphone-jack/
    It's actually the headphone jack, which is stereo and can be flipped as a stereo input (didn't know that).

  • Subsequent to Yosemite or updates, my repeating calendar events can not be updated as before. When I update an event (of the repeating event) on my MacBook Pro; its reverts back when I shut it down and come back, and doesn't update other devices?

    Subsequent to Yosemite or updates, my repeating calendar events can not be updated as before. When I update an event (of a repeating event) on my MacBook Pro; its reverts back when I shut it down and come back, and doesn't update other devices?
    Has anyone experienced this and does anyone know a fix?

    This is incredibly frustrating for me too!
    I have a repeated monthly event for a discount at a store that is offered on the first Tuesday of every month. So I have a repeated event taking place on the 1st of every month. In the previous month I reset next month's date from the 1st to whatever date falls on the first Tuesday.
    But ever since upgrading to Yosemite, I am experiencing the same problem as the original person who posted. The date saves on my calendar but does not sync to my iCloud. When I reboot the computer, the date reverts back to the 1st.
    I'm thankful I don't have any events that needed to be tracked because ALL of my previous changes in the past have reverted back to the 1st of the month. I would have been in the same terrible situation as yaz999 in having to manually change every event in previous months.
    Why hasn't this bug been fixed yet???!!!
