AirPlay: iPhone 4 -- iMac or any mac's screen?
Is it possible to stream content to other screen other than a Apple TV?
For example, my iMac 27" which is nice and gorgeous screen?
Thanks
I'm also very interested in this feature!

I have an new iMac and a MacBook Air, both with 256GB solid state drives. I don't want my iTunes Library to reside on the solid state drives so would appreciate knowing the step by step procedure for moving the iTunes Library from the solid state drive to my 1TB HD2.
Many thanks,Niel,
I appreciate your prompt assistance which worked fine. However, I think Apple should take a tip from Dropbox and have a menu item for Moving the iTunes Library. -
Just transferred data to iMac from working Mac Pro that is using Parallels and Windows 7 and the Biblesoft 5 and it will not open on the iMac the only change is the new Maverick OS from the macpro Lion OS. Any ideas?
<Personal Information Edited by Host>Setup Assistant and Migration Assistant do not restore MS Windows, it only does the OS X partition. All of your Windows stuff must be backed up and restore using a MS Windows application. If no one on this forum is able to answer your question then I'd repost it on a Parallels forum to see how other Windows users approach this.

You can't not restore if you have reached this point -
When I turn on my iMac, it shows a black screen and says 'No bootable device - enter boot cd and press any key'.
I'm not sure what to do, I did not recieve a cd with my mac to boot it up (I ordered it online).
Also I can't find my harware serial number (I've tried many times to input what I thought it may be from my receipt). I saw that I need this number to contact apple support, my 90 day complimentary support is still valid so I wish to contact them.
I don't know much about apple products as this is my first apple computer so any information is helpful.Hold down the Alt/Option-key at startup of your iMac to get the Boot Selection screen.
From that choose to boot into OSX.
Once in OSX go to System Preferences then Startup Volume and reset your OSX to be the default.
The new iMacs have OSX 10.7 Lion preinstalled and don't come with any CD/DVD anymore.
Instead OSX Lion includes a new feature called "Lion Recovery".

It depends on what iMac you have. If it is an old PPC (G4 orG5) iMac then no further upgrades are possible. If it an Intel iMac:
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
(NB: PowerPC applications can still be run in Snow Leopard using Rosetta, but they will not work in later versions of OS X.)
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether any further updates are required, particularly to iTunes.
You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
You can now upgrade to Mavericks OS 10.9 for free IF you have one of the following Macs, with not less than 2GB of RAM, and at least 8GB of available space on your hard drive:
iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later), (15-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later), (17-inch, Late 2007 or later)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
Mac Mini (Early 2009 or later)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later)
Xserve (Early 2009)
iCloud system requirements:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4759
If you cannot run Mavericks you can purchase the code to use to download Lion from the App Store (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard):
http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6106Z/A/os-x-lion
or Mountain Lion:

Google advised me to change my password, which I have done on my iMac.
Mail is now accessible on iMac.
However, can still not access mail on iPad or iPhone even though I've resynced them with iMac.
Any ideas please?
ThanksSyncing with the Mac isn't going to do anything unless you synced the mail settings, and I'm not sure that you can do that any more with iTunes.
DId you try changing your password in the settings in the mail app? Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars>Your account name>Account>Account information. You also need to make sure that the password is set in the outgoing mail server settings.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional. -
Do any imacs come with a touch screen if not whats the best touch screen for a 2012 13inch macbook air?
ThxNo they don't.
Apple's position is that touchscreens are for tablets and phones (in Apple's case the iPad and iPhone) and that OSX does not need a touchscreen - the trackpad and/or mouse is more flexible.
That may change in future but no one here knows.
In answer to your second question, there is NO touch screen available for the MacBook Air (2012 or any other vintage), nor for the MacBook Pro. If you must have a touchscreen, consider an iPad with a stand and a wireless keyboard. Alternatively, a Windows 8.1 laptop or desktop??? -

Yellow tinted screen display on my newly bought iPhone 5. Any solutions?
Hi, I have an issue on my iPhone 5. I bought this iPhone 5 1week ago and I encounter yellow tinted screen when I compare it with my iPhone 4. Any solutions to it or reasons for this? Hope to hear soon.
Contact Apple at feedback or take it back to where you purchased it. These are user to user forums and you are not speaking to Apple here.
Good Luck

I got a 2000 iMac with OS 9.1. I do not have the disks for it. The person who gave it to me could not remember the name and password they gave it. When it comes on it goes to the welcome to Mac OS screen. It has hello Hilda and under that it wants a name and password. What can I do. I tried shutdown and restarting holding down the command and s key but that does nt do anything. Please help
You'll need some installer discs for it to do anything. But as old as that is it may not be worth the trouble. You may find some retail copies of OS 9.1 on eBay or Google. You can install OS X on those old machines, but the maximum version is 10.3.9 (Panther) which may be getting difficult to find.

My iphone is backing up to icloud but not my macbook air nor my iMac. Any ideas?
My iphone is backing up to icloud but not my macbook air nor my iMac. Any ideas?
I use Time Machine with an external HD. That seems to do what I need. Others also recommend an second EHD with a bootable clone of your boot drive and use a 3rd party app like Carbon Copy Cloner, SuperDuper, Synk Pro, etc. to keep the clone up to date.
In addition to Time Machine I have a hard drive that I keep key files backed up with Synk Pro which does incremental backups, i.e. copying only those new or modified files. For other candidates for the cloning and backup apps to go MacUpdate.com and search for "file backup" and "clone".
