App transfer iphone to macbook air

I am unable to transfer downloaded apps on iphone 4 to Macair.  The dialogue box says that it is because I have not authorised this computer - I have double checked and this computer is definitely authorised.
Help please

iOS and OS X are two completely different operating systems.
You cannot run iPhone apps on a Mac and you cannot run Mac apps on an iPhone.

  • All notes just disappeared from "Notes" app on iPhone, iPad, Macbook Air and iCloud. Where are they?

    For months they are there. Yesterday-- all gone! What the heck happened? Was it something I did? What can I do to get them back?

    You will have to do more than simply changing settings in your moms account. To set up everything in your own account, go to Settings > iCloud > scroll down and press sign out. From this, check out this link for how to setup iCloud on all of your devices after making a new icloud account on your phone: https://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
    Before you set that up, you will have to make a new iCould account which you can simply do after you sign out of your mom's account on your devices.
    Hope I can help!

  • I'd like to transfer the photos from iPhone to MacBook Air. My iPhoto used to detect my iPhone automatically, but it doesn't happen anymore. How could I fox this? Thanks for helping!

    I'd like to transfer the photos from iPhone to MacBook Air. My iPhoto used to detect my iPhone automatically, but it doesn't happen anymore. How could I fox this? Thanks for helping!

    Check the iPhoto preferences:
    From the main menu bar:  iPhoto > Preferences > General:
         "Connecting camera opens"  : Set this option to  "iPhoto".
    If that does not help, disconnect your iPhone and reset your iPhone.
    To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • How can I get the kindle ebooks on my iPad Mini to backup or transfer to my macbook air?

    I have both iBooks and the Kiindle app on my iPd Mini.  How can I get the Kindle ebooks
    to backup or transfer to my MacBook Air?

    If you have bought the Kindle ebooks from Amazon, I think that there is your purchase history at amazon.com. You can go there to check it out or check your Amazon mail.

  • Installing pages from iPhone to macbook air...

    I bought Pages on my iPhone and I want install this app to my new macbook air now for free. Is it possible install this app for free to macbook air? Thanks.

    No they are 2 separate purchases for 2 separate OSes.
    One for iOS bought from the iTunes store and,
    One for Mac OSX bought from the Mac App Store.
    They can then be used on as many of your iGadgets, or Macs using the same Apple I.D. and OS.

  • HT204291 Airplay Icon lost from both my iPhone and Macbook Air

    I've lost the Airplay Icon from both my iPhone and Macbook Air, so I assume there's something up with my AppleTV setup (connected via LAN ).
    Airplay was working fine until recently.I've checked all settings and they seem ok. Anyone any further ideas?
    All other functions work ok, streaming video off the net , playing iTunes (installed on Macbook Air) from AppleTV etc
    I've just lost Airplay from 2 devices.
    AppleTV was updated in the last few days, but the Icon was lost before that.
    Thanks in anticipation.
    Doug

    OK. Solved !
    A simple reboot of my modem/router (the fibre one from BT - BT Infinity) fixed this for
    both my iPhone and Macbook Air.
    I can also mirror my iPhone screen to the AppleTV now too.
    (mirroring only worked from my Macbook Air before)
    That must be a new feature. Excellent !
    I guess I should have tried that before, but maybe this will help someone
    Happy Easter

  • Airport Express 802.11n keeps disconnecting Airplay with iPhone and Macbook Air

    I purchased this Airport Express on Jan 7, 2012. It was working fine.
    I used it for airplay only to play my itunes music to my speakers. My speakers are connected to an amplifier that is inturn connected to the Airport Express via an optical cable. I have not use it with a printer. I do not use it as a wifi to access the internet.
    It was working fine until about a month or so ago when after playing a few songs it would disconnect. Now after less than 2-3mins it would disconnect. When I try to manually reconnect with my iPhone or Macbook Air, it would say that is unable to connect to the Airport.
    If I keep trying, eventually it will connect and then after 2-3 mins it would cut off again. The amber light would show contineously.
    I am at wits end. I have not changed the arrangement at all since Jan. What could have happened?
    About a month ago there were an update to Airport Utility. I ran that update. Could that be the problem?
    I'd appreciate if someone could help me. The warranty will run out a less than a month. How timely isn't it.
    Is the router broken. If so why does it still allow me to use Airplay but only for a few minutes (less than a song)?
    Thanks in advance for any help and or advice.
    Mike

    Unfortunately there could be any number of possible causes. Your router could be at fault, or the Express, or something else that is affecting both. To troubleshoot this issue you would have to eliminate or significantly reduce one or more of these possibilities.
    Try performing a "hard reset" of the Express and configure it anew. Sometimes an internal parameter becomes corrupted that only a "hard reset" can fix.
    The following is an excerpt from:
    Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule FAQ
    Hard reset
    Press and hold the reset button with a pen or pencil until you see the status light (LED) start to flash amber rapidly, which should occur after about five seconds.
    Release the button, and the AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule will hard reset.
    ... but read the entire document to ensure you do it correctly. An Express that has been "hard reset" will create an open network with the name "Apple Network nnnnnn" where nnnnnn = the last few digits of its MAC address.
    If you do not see the network with that name, the "hard reset" did not take effect, which will happen if you do not hold its little reset button long enough. In that case do it again.
    Following the "hard reset", reconfigure your Express.
    Failing that, position the Express closer to your wireless router. This may not be a practicable long term solution for you but it will minimize the possibility that wireless interference is causing the problem.
    Consider substituting another router, to eliminate that as the cause.
    Finally, you could take your Express to Apple who may simply offer you an exchanged unit. It will most likely operate perfectly well for them so you will not be able to demonstrate this failure mode, but you can explain you did all that I suggested above without success.

  • I delete my app store for my macbook air, how to recover

    i delete my app store for my macbook air, how to recover?

    The Mac App Store comes with Mac OS X, so you have to reinstall it. Open  > About this Mac, and tell us the OS X version you have.
    If it's 10.7 or 10.8, hold Command and R keys while your Mac is starting and reinstall OS X. You won't lose any file, but make a backup
    If it's 10.6 or 10.5, you need the Mac OS X DVD and an external optical drive or a Mac or PC with Remote Install. Insert the DVD, hold the C key while your Mac is starting and reinstall Mac OS X. Then, open  > Software Update, and install the most recent version.
    If you have a Time Machine backup, you can restore it instead of reinstalling

  • We have an "old school" DVD player (Sony dvp-nc80v) that plays music throughout our home.  Is there a connector that we can purchase to hook-up our iPhone or MacBook Air to also play music until we buy some new equipment?

    We have an "old school" DVD player (Sony dvp-nc80v) that plays music throughout our home via connection to multiple embedded speakers.  Is there a connector/piece of hardware that we can purchase to hook-up our iPhone or MacBook Air to also play music until we buy some new equipment?

    A crude but effective way would ,assuming the Sony has an AUX in ,
    is a stereo bluetooth receiver
    plugs into aux and recives music over B/T from
    the iPhone etc ,as used by many in vehicle
    For instance as an example

  • Cleaned files and apps with "app cleaner" and now MacBook Air turns off during start up. What happens? What can I do? Please help

    Cleaned files and apps with "app cleaner" and now MacBook Air turns off during start up. What happens? What can I do? Please help

    The "app cleaner" managed to do bad things to the file system so that it is unable to boot any longer.
    This is the primary reason I always recommend that any of those so called "cleanup" apps never be used. They do more harm then good.
    Try a safe boot by holding down the shifgr key when you hear the boot chime. Maybe that can fix the damage.
    Let us know what happens.

  • How to transfer purchased apps from iPhone to macbook

    Hey guys, I'm trying to transfer a couple of apps that I purchased on my iPhone, and I'm trying to get them on my Macbook air without buying them agin. The problem is that I don't know if the method thats been provide for us on apple/support.com is actually working. The method I've been using is plugging my phone up to my macbook and opening iTunes, then going to file> devices> transfer purchases, but nothing seemed to happen. Is there a Specific place or file that the transferred purchases would have been sent to or am I doing it all wrong? P.S the apps that I'm trying to transfer is Garageband, Pages, Numbers, and Key Note.

    That method will put the iOS versions of them into the computer's iTunes library. The Mac OS X versions need to be gotten from the Mac App Store.
    Mac OS X and iOS are separate architectures.
