Apple Mac query

I’m thinking of buying an apple Mac.   I’m presently using windows seven on a PC and lightroom 4 and have bought the upgrade to lightrooom five.  On the box it says it can be used with windows or a Mac so I presume this software will work on a Mac.  I’m also using Photoshop cs6 which I bought only six months ago.  Is there any way this can be used on a Mac?

Hi george-s101,
Most Adobe software is licensed per platform (operating system) so it's either Windows only or Mac only.
Fortunately, Lightroom is multi-platform so the serial number will work on both Windows and Mac.
So it's just a question of downloading the Trial version from the Adobe website and entering your serial number when you launch the trial.
Thanks

  • How easy is to transfer data from an old apple mac to a new apple mac

    I have an old Intel Apple Mac And I am looking to change it for a new one asap I live 110 miles from Exeter Apple I would rather deal with them direct Rather than local Apple resellers here in Cornwall,They offer a costly alternative, and not a very good alternative,.If I am to spend £1000.00 plus I want to feel ok with it all I have been quoted 2days if I want the data  ie Photographic images etc transfering at Apple, Do not want to travel twice to Exeter Due to milage and time factors Hence my query Would appreciate advice from anyone Who has perhaps done it Thanks

    Hi Matt, I did not realise Due to my ignorance that   I was asking for help world wide,  And when I mentioned  Penzance,in Cornwall,Manchester & Exeter, I presumed you would, realise where these places were. But at the same time Your help was very appreciated all the same,And very clearly stated. I was at first, apprehensive about asking on line after my previous visits to so called experts, at various Apple outlets/  Who seemed to an ordinary person like me, ,to only be interested in them doing it,and charging me a serious amount of money,and it been to hard and difficut for me to do.It was only after reading on an Apple site, That I realised that it could be done by me, Hence my query, So thanks again. I notice from your points awarded to you, that you have helped with your knowledge, a lot more people other than I,  Where would we be, without people, like you,who talk sense,and help people like me,Thanks Martin Smith (penzance,Cornwall uk 0

  • New to Apple/Mac

    Hello, I'm new to the Apple/Mac family. I've just acquired a Power Mac G4, 733mgz, 256 ram, 40gb HD with OS X 10.5. Is this going to be a viable alternative to my PC?
    I'm running Windows XP on a 1.6ghz with 512ram and an 80gb hd.
    I also have questions about the USB ports, should I look into additional USB card? If I want to upgrade the HD, do I have to stick with only Apple products?
    How about wireless internet, do I need to install the airport card? Currently I have a small antenna plugged into a USB port on my PC and it accesses my ATT U-Verse gateway. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hi angwchris, and a warm welcome to the forums & Macdom!
    I've just acquired a Power Mac G4, 733mgz, 256 ram, 40gb HD with OS X 10.5. Is this going to be a viable alternative to my PC?
    It'll be much slower, but it needs way more RAM, to see what'll be best for your exact Mac do this...
    At the Apple Icon at top left>About this Mac.
    Then click on More Info>Hardware and report this upto *but not including the Serial#*...
    Hardware Overview:
    Machine Name: Power Mac G5 Quad
    Machine Model: PowerMac11,2
    CPU Type: PowerPC G5 (1.1)
    Number Of CPUs: 4
    CPU Speed: 2.5 GHz
    L2 Cache (per CPU): 1 MB
    Memory: 10 GB
    Bus Speed: 1.25 GHz
    Boot ROM Version: 5.2.7f1
    I also have questions about the USB ports, should I look into additional USB card?
    Quite likely, but waiting for your specs.
    If I want to upgrade the HD, do I have to stick with only Apple products?
    Nope, but do you have the Install Disc(s) for 10.5?
    How about wireless internet, do I need to install the airport card?
    Waiting for specs, but there are options besides an Airport card.

  • How to connect and use Stor.E TV with Apple Mac

    Hi,
    I just bought the Stor.E tv but I use Apple mac.
    Is there a program that I can download or just some way I can connect my Stor.E to my computer?
    Right now it's locked.
    Thank you :)

    Hi
    Im not quite sure if you could use this since there is no special software for MAC OS leopard.
    But the TOSHIBA StorE TV supports an common USB port and can be connected to the mac/notebook using the common USB plug an play cable
    Maybe the MAC will recognize this external USB device automatically and you will not need to install any software or drivers

  • I have a Apple Mac desktop and recently was unable to access any YouTube, movies, videos, etc because a "Blocked Plug-in" message comes up with no error message. It asks to upload Abode Reader, but upon completion of this the message is the same.

    I have a Apple Mac desktop and recently can no longer access Youtube, videos, movies, etc because I get a message reading "Blocked Plug-in". There's no error message but it does say to upload Abode Flash Player and the problem will be solved. I do this but it doesn't fix the problem. What am I doing wrong?

    if you already downloaded the adobe flash player onto your mac and still getting that message that means you need to finish the installation of the flash player
    you do this by opening a finder window and going to your downloads, find the flash player in here and then double click on it and follow the prompts to complete the installation.
    after this is completed you will need to completely quit out of the web browser you're using then reopen it for the change to take affect and your issue should be resolved. if it's not you need to contact adobe their number is 800 642-3623.

  • HT1386 I have had to have a new hard drive fitted to my Apple Mac and now I can't sync my music with my iPhone, it thinks it's a new computer. Please help, What do I do?

    I have had to have a new hard drive fitted and now I cannot sync my Iphone with my Apple Mac, thinks it's a new computer. Any ideas Please?

    I keep this as a copy and paste. It's the same process for Mac as it is for a PC. Read it over and see what you think. Post back if you have questions.
    The following was copied from this thread. This is essentially what you want to accomplish.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/11527071#11527071
    1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
    2) Now connect your iPad to your Mac and start iTunes.
    3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
    4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
    5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
    6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
    If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on iTunes / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.
    Read this thread and the support links as well. There are apps that you can purchase that will allow you to transfer photos from the iPad to your PC. Look at Photo Transfer App in the App store and you can search for others as well.

  • My iPad doesn't come up up in devices when linked to my Apple Mac

    When connecting my iPad 2 via USB to my Apple Mac for syncing the device doesn't show in devices

    Do you even see the Devices heading in the sidebar ... Or do you even see the sidebar. Go to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu to enable the sidebar, if you haven't done that. 
    If you have and it still doesn't show up, quit iTunes, restart the iPad, restart the Mac and try again.

  • I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premier 10 loaded on a Dell PC. Do I need to uninstall from the Dell before I install on a recently purchased Apple Mac Pro? There are separate disks for Mac and PC in the package.

    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premier 10 loaded on a Dell PC. Do I need to uninstall from the Dell before I install on a recently purchased Apple Mac Pro? There are separate disks for Mac and PC in the package.

    Generally, it's ok to install on two machines as long as they are both yours and you only use one version at a time.

  • Applet in Apple Mac OSX problem

    Hi all,
    have developing an applet long while using WinXP platform, everthing seem ok, but when i try over Apple Mac OSX, i has a loading problem saying that init failed to load ArrayList as error message said:
    ArrayIndexOutOfBound, 0...
    but when i debug print out the ArrayList content and its length, i'm sure that this ArrayList is NOT NULL and its length is NOT ZERO either. what is happening here? oh, ya, this only happen in Safari, in FireFox for Mac no problem, even Camino also pass the test, why? anyone have idea about this? because i'm new to Apple Mac.
    also, there is another question whereby, when i use FireFox for Mac to load the applet, the applet load seem no problem but it just can't display properly. what i mean is that in Windows platform (IE6), this applet show entire applet successfully, but when i try it in Mac, it show only a part of applet without any error, but when i try to refresh the page, applet is now successfully show, why?
    lastly, when a button of an applet being click and this will bring a new window with some parameters value, its work on IE in Windows platform, why it won't work for FireFox or Safari for Mac? i see prompt out saying is security problem, is there any workout of this? thanks. to summary out of junk above:
    _______________________________FireFox_____Safari_____IE
    _______________________________Win | Mac_____Mac____Win
    1. load applet for 1st time___________OK_|_NO_____FAIL____OK
    2. refresh applet after 1st load failed___OK_|_OK_____FAIL____OK
    3. when applet button click (security)___OK_|_NO_____-_______OK
    p/s: all above test was using same applet with same parameter and value.
    below is the sample i capture from Apple Mac just now:

    i has a loading problem saying that
    init failed to load ArrayList as error message
    said:
    ArrayIndexOutOfBound, 0...Well, post the stack trace.
    but when i debug print out the ArrayList content and
    its length, i'm sure that this ArrayList is NOT NULL
    and its length is NOT ZERO either. You can still get an out of bounds exception with those conditions. The list could exist, its length could be N, but you're trying to dereference position N + 5, for example.
    try it in Mac, it show only a part of applet without
    any error, but when i try to refresh the page, applet
    is now successfully show, why?My guess is that you're not calling repaint() when you should, but that's just a guess.
    lastly, when a button of an applet being click and
    this will bring a new window with some parameters
    value, its work on IE in Windows platform, why it
    won't work for FireFox or Safari for Mac? i see
    prompt out saying is security problem, is there any
    workout of this? thanks. to summary out of junk
    above:Often you can sign applets so they can do things that unsigned applets aren't allowed to do.
    Maybe you're making some kind of security mistake that Firefox and Safari are (properly) catching but IE isn't. In any event, post the error message.

  • HT3310 i have a problem with the headset of my ipod nano 4th gen. the right side don't have a sound. It comes in and out.  what do I need to do?.. I am using the original headset eversince. I took it to an Apple Mac Center I was told they can't do anythin

      I have a problem with the headset of my ipod nano 4th gen. the right side don't have a sound. It comes in and out.  what do I need to do.. I am using the original headset eversince. I tool it to a Apple Mac Cennter and Taked with a Service Center Rep. And he told me that they can't do anything because they don't repair the ipod they didn;t even look at it. I was told instead to buy a new one. I was very disappointed.. This is already my 5th ipod though i am planning to buy a new one.. I still want it fixed so I can give it to my little sister

    From the OP: "My old computer got a virus and when that happened all my music was lost. "
    They don't have the music on their computer so they cannot transfer the iTunes folder, from the computer to their iPod and then to the new computer. And if they try to enable disk use on the iPod it will erase all the music that is on it. The method you cited is moving the files in a data format using the iPod as a flash drive. It doesn't work if they are in music format. That is why I suggested Yamipod.

  • TS1410 We recently changed our computer from a Microsoft Windows to an Apple Mac.  All our music is on ITunes but when I try to download to my iPod it won't download.  It accepts there is an iPod attached but it won't allow for any download.  What can I d

    We recently bought an Apple Mac and now I cannot download music from ITunes to my Ipod Nano. Although the name of the Ipod comes up, I cannot load any music on it any more.  Our last computer had Microsoft software and I was told this is the reason the Mac will not allow any downloading.  Do I have to clear the music off my Ipod and start again?  Please help.

    - To change ID go to Settings>Store and sign out and sign in with the one you want. If you iPod has iOS 5 you may have to also go to Settings>iCloud and sign into the second account.
    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

  • IPOD NANO 3rd Gen problem Apple Mac set up PC BASED MAIN UNIT

    I have been asked by a friend to help out because they asked to add music to their new IPOD. But the owner is a tech scared person. They gave the unit an IPOD NANO 3rd Gen to my friend who uses Apple MAC they set up the IPOD with their Itunes and added the songs.
    Later they wanted new tracks but have now downloaded ITUNES to their own PC Windows Vista system. The tracks were added to a USB memory stick and transfered and added to the PC Vista ITUNES. But now the IPOD Nano will not register on the Windows Vista ITUNES system but will show up on the "My computer"
    I have reset the nano by holding the on/off and menu etc to get the Apple logo, the unit beeps as does the laptop PC Based ITUNES etc but will still not register on the ITUNES or allow me to sync the music from the ITUNES to the IPOD.
    Can anyone advise how I can reformat the IPOD or reset the IPOD and remove all music currently on it to start again but get it to register/set up and show on the ITUNES on the windows VISTA unit rather than the mac based system.
    Thanks,
    Global_mongrel

    Hey, I bought an iPod nano 3rd gen yesterday and I have exactly the same prolem you are describing in your message. Have you found any solution to this?

  • Ipod touch 4 days old - not being recognised now on apple mac.  What is going on?

    I am totally disappointed with this Ipod.  I had it all set up a few days ago, which we had to do at home ourselves due to requiring our current passwords etc.   Today it is not recognised on the Apple Mac and the Apple ID cannot be found - it took too long to find it. The Itunes server is not recognised and for some reason I cannot find new updates for either product.  They both appear to be up to date.  Waste of my time.  I have spent hours trying to find out what is wrong with it,   I bought this in Perth at the only Apple Store last Saturday.  I have purchased itunes music and this was successfully downloaded to mu ipod a few days ago.  Last night I downloaded my CD's to the itunes library and haven't been able to put these onto my Ipod.  What is going on?????  I though Apple was a fairly straight forward reliable brand of product.  Your support page is not helping me at present.

    I have contacted Apple support on the above issues and will have to follow it up with them as it is more involved than what I have listed. Our Apple Mac laptop is not downloading the updates for software.  The iTunes site does not recognise the "server" (comes up with a message saying this) and apparently this is a known problem.  The Mac needs to have a more current iTunes update but as the computer won't install the updates (goes through all the motions from the software update on the apple icon at top right hand corner of page) , I can't use my iPod on the computer to get my CD songs that are downloaded onto the itunes library site (don't know how to get these either) and it doesn't appear to recognise my iPod touch.
    I also couldn't log in to the Apple site this morning, but later on at about lunchtime I could!  Bizarre.  Of course I haven't had any problems logging into this site with my password and ID at all today. 
    So, lllaass, I am going to try Apple support again via the phone and see what happens....I have a job number to quote them when I call them back.  Thanks for your suggestions - I am definitely not an IT whiz, but I do know that my iPOD did work forthe first day or so. 

  • How do I make my printer work wirelessly from my Apple Mac?

    I have recently changed my router.  I have an Apple Mac and a Canon Pixma MP620 printer. I can't seem to set it up so that the printer works wirelessly. The old router is still listed on the printer so I need to change that first. Can anyone help?

    If you open System Preferences, Printers and Scanners, then the Canon Printer Options and Supplies, do you have a button for Open Printer Webpage?  You should be able to do the setup of the printer, that is change the network settings, from there.
