All of the sudden my Messages app on my Macbook Pro is no longer syncing to my iPhone texts. What do I need to do to reestablish the flow between devices?

Associate your mobile number with your Apple ID, if you haven't already done so.
Sign out of iMessage on the Mac:
          Messages ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Sign out
and on the iPhone:
          Settings ▹ Messages ▹ Send & Receive ▹ Apple ID ▹ Sign out
Then, on the phone, tap
          Use Your Apple ID for iMessage
Sign back into iMessage on both devices and test. If there's no change, you may have to wait for a change in network conditions.

how do i transfer my itunes account (with all my music, photos and ipad apps) from a macbook pro to a new macbook air?

thanks but exactly how do I do this. I tried setting the new macair up using migration assistant but for some reason not everything has come through. I bought a thunderbolt cable to improve the transfer rate.
Now my question is how do I transfer the iTunes folder. I have authorised the new macair for iTunes and am within the 5 computer limit.

Can I use the "Find My iPad" app in my MacBook Pro when the iPan has a different Apple ID & password than the MacBook Pro?

On your Macbook you access Find My iPad via a Web Browser at http://icloud.com
This will require you to sign on using the Apple ID and password used for the iPad iCloud.

I am traveling from the US to France and have a Macbook Pro. Can I just use a plug adaptor or do I need a power converter to plug in?

I am traveling from the US to France and have a Macbook Pro. Can I just use a plug adaptor or do I need a power converter to plug in?

Just an adapter to change the US plug style to the one in the country you are going to. The AC charger will do the rest. It is rated for 120-240 volts and will adjust on its own.

I use Office Outlook for mac 2011 to organise my email & calendar. Since updating to OS X Mavericks I have not been able to sync the calendar to my iPhone. What do I need to do to get the calendars syncing again?

Thanks! But seriously why have Apple disabled the info sync on iTunes? By 'Upgrading' to Mavericks I've inadvertantly disabled my Apple mobile devices from fulfilling their function. Come on Apple work with us here!!
Apple told developers they were removing that service over two years ago. The developers that depended upon it should have done something about it.
Why did they remove it? My guess is because it was pretty crappy, was difficult to maintain, and wasn't a good solution for multiple devices that could get the info without tethering to a "base" Mac.

HT202549 I need help with my messages app on my macbook pro.

I'm trying to send/receive messages to/from my son who recently switched from iphone to android. I have a 4s running ios 7.1.2 if that matters. When I try to send him a message through the messages app on my laptop, it says "(his number) is not registered with imessage." But my daughter who has an iphone 5 says that she gets his messages on her macbook pro and can also send messages to him from the messages app on there.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Let me know if you need any more information.

Hi WT13,
You can do that too but not with the current configuration that you have. To get SMS messages on your Mac, you would need to have iOS 8 on your iPhone and also be running OS X Yosemite on your Mac. Once you have that set up then you can enable SMS messages to have them forward to your Mac.

Hello abdulrazeqfakur,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with iMessage on your MacBook Pro.
You mentioned that you are not seeing "You can be reached for Messages at" in your Messages Preferences on your Mac. I recommend first checking to see if iMessage is enabled on your iPhone and that you are signed in with the same Apple ID on both devices:
You can sign in to your Apple ID on an iPhone by tapping Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.
iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage

Additionally, it is important to note that with Mountain Lion, you are able to send messages to a phone number, but you will receive messages sent to your Apple ID:
Check with your friends to see if they’re messaging you at an email address listed in the “You can be reached for messages at” list or if they’re sending messages to a phone number.
Messages can send messages to a phone number, but it can’t receive messages sent to a phone number.

You can't boot OS X with a Windows boot device.
Internet Recovery is the next step. Follow ssls6's advice.

How do i restore apps on my MacBook Pro?

How do I restore apps on my MacBook Pro? Such as iphoto. I'm running on OSX 10.6.8

iPhoto is part of the iLife apps that came bundled with your computer when it was new. You will find the installer on the two software discs that came with your computer when it was new.

Itunes is saying that 11.0.5 is the most current version on my mac book pro even though 11.1 has been released. what gives?

Hey Blake Placid,
Thanks for the question. If you have not already done so, I would download and install iTunes directly from the following link:
Apple - iTunes - Download iTunes Now

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Unfortunately, if Apple simply allowed people to log into different accounts and download content, everyone would be using everyone could share everyone else's content and bypass the need to purchase anything. To protect against this, they limit you to logging into a new account to once every 90 days.
If two or more of you, have different accounts and use only one computer, you should each have your own user account on the computer, to avoid the need to log in and out of iTunes.

Hi there, harleygirl.
A look around the internet and my previous knowledge indicates this is not an issue with firefox, but with how the server that the app is run on is incorrectly configured. To test this, please install an old version of firefox. You can download an older version from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html then try to visit the website again. Please let us know if it turns out that it works with version 3.6
