Are clean my mac and mackeeper legit? i am nervous as i got caught with mac defender. both of these programs i found on my mac tips and tricks app on dashboard and thought they would be approved. not sure and don't want to go ahead and use the samples etc

are clean my mac and mac keeper legit? i am nervous as i got caught in the macdefender scheme but these two i found on the mac tips and tricks app on dashboard so downloaded them but haven't used them yet. just don't want or need another mac defender hassle. thanks for any and all info in advance

once again thanks for more info. what i am still not clear on is if i haven't installed mackeeper can i just drag the icon of the open box [in one case] and the mackeeper icon in my app folder. i somehow downloaded two copies of mackeeper. clicked on one and it was put into my app folder. then i decided to use it and clicked on it and it started asking for email address and stuff. while i put an address in i didn't finish installing or hitting the button that would have probably got it completely installed.
checked the email address i gave it and no notice from them that i had completed the install or any other info. makes me hope it is still un installed.
given the givens should i use the apple help writer "how to uninstall mackeeper" on one or both of them or just hope that dragging them to the trash will suffice?
one of the many great things about apple is this support communities and folks like you and paul. have been rescued from my stupidity by others and you guys. thanks again

    If any of you are like me, I had one single AppleID under MobileMe.  Under my AppleID I had two additional Email addresses, one for my wife and one for her Mother.  Each used their individual email accounts on their login on the home Mac and on their individual Iphones.
    In order for them to not lose their email acounts when mobileMe goes away and/or you move your appleID acount from MobileMe to iCloud, you simply need to beaware of the folowing.  Have each person with an email address under your AppleID MobileMe go to www.me.com; enter their email account and password in the corresponding fields.  However, don't press the login button. Instead press the sentence under the login fields that says something to the effect of "do you want to move/migrate to iCloud.  Follow the prompts from there.
    In essence what Apple has done--albeit not communicated anywhere--is that they automatically created AppleIDs for each of those additonal email addresses you have/had under MobileMe.  Therefore, use that email and password after moving from MobileMe to iCloud and your good to go.

    Since iOS 7.1 my phone won't turn on and is asking me to connect to iTunes. I connect to itunes and it says it needs to be restored. Not sure why. I try to restore it and then it says something went wrong and it won't work. So I've been without my phone for a couple days now. It gives me error code (29). The phone almost reboots and then 3/4 of the way through it gives me the error message.

  • IMac, just had repaired new Harddrive erase deverything,wheres my iPhoto n all those apps, i know the gone from hard drive but i thought they would transfer from my phone

    iMac, just had repaired new Harddrive erase deverything,wheres my iPhoto n all those apps, i know the gone from hard drive but i thought they would transfer from my phone? HELP ?

    Those Apps would not transfer from your iPhone because the iPhone apps are iOS 5 based and the iMac apps are OSX based.  They are not the same Apps.  You will need to transfer the OSX based apps over from your external hardware backup you have kept up, Or you can reinstall the OSX based apps from their original DVD's.
    Hope this helps

  • My sons dad bought him and ipod and my niece used her itunes library to add music and videos on it. They live in another state and we have questions because we don't want him to lose all of the music or any of the apps.

    My son's dad bought him an ipod and my niece used her itune library to put music and videos on his ipod. The problem we are haveing is that she lives in another state and we are not sure how to manange his account without losing some of the songs and all of his apps. There are some songs that are on his ipod that are duplicates, there are some songs that he doesn't like or listen to, and there are some songs on there that I do NOT want him to listen to because of the language and the lyrics. He is 10 there are just some things I feel that he is too young to listen to.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can use different ID's for iTunes and iCloud.
    Just delete the account in settings > iCloud and create them their own account.
    if the children are minors, you wiil need to create and be responsible for each account yourself.

    Using Photoshop CS6 and after printing approx. 10 cards on an Epson R3000 printer the program gives me a dialog box saying "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents."  Even after closing and reopening the program, the print command is greyed out so I cannot select any printer. This also happens with a Brother laser printer. Both printers will produce a test page out side of the Adobe product. Help!

    I cannot get any help either.  I get the message "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents."  I have reinstalled all drivers, powered off/on all printers (2 of them - a Brother HL - 4040cn and an Epson Stylus Pro 7890 - which all worked fine until this morning).  There appears to be no path to a solution.  I have read all the forums and tried about 20 different suggestions all to no avail.  Reboots, changing cables, reinstalling printers and drivers and Photoshop CS6 - ALL TO NO AVAIL.  On a macbook pro retina with 10.10.3.  This issue is out there and some get solutions - but not all - that's my crowd...the not all crowd.  I have yet to be able to print from CS6 any more.  This is a show stopper and my patience is wearing thin.  And I'm tired of stupid questions like "is your printer powered on?" give me a break.  This appears to be an adobe photoshop cs6 problem - as I can print from every other application.  Anyone have any ideas?  Adobe should have something?...

    This is a stupid question but I needed to ask because I don't want to go there and not being able to buy it, but can I get the iPhone 5 brought straight there when I go to an apple store?

    And I meant go to the apple store physically without preordering it online, and I meant the Southampton one. So could I just stroll in apple store and buy a iPhone 5 in Southampton apple store and buy the iPhone 5 straight away? Because I didn't want to have to wait? I just want to go in and buy it and go out with it, if you guys get what I mean? And felipeV if it is in stock could I just buy it and leave with my iPhone 5?

    If you don't have an icloud account, then icloud is not the thing that's popping up a window.
    If you are being asked to enter a password when accessing itunes, then the problem may be that you have purchased items (apps, songs, etc) on the device that were purchased using a different itunes account than the one you currently have defined on your device. 
    Purchased items are forever associated with the itunes account (the apple ID) that was used to make the purchase.  If you change the ID on the device, you won't be able to update any of them.  You'll have to purchase them again.

    Can I insert a memory card into my Macbook Pro?  I tried, and it does not go in on its own, I don't want to force it and get it stuck!! Help!

    Maybe the wrong port or the wrong kind of memory card? You didn't say what version/year of Macbook Pro you have. Below is a photo of the newest one.
    Red oval = USB port. It is to the left of the headphone jack.
    Blue oval = SDXC card port. Is your card an SDXC card?

  • Migrating, but don't want to transfer partition and Parallels

    I am migrating from a white Macbook to aluminum; I do not want to transfer Parallels and the disk partition. How can I transfer all my info and settings except parallels and Windows XP?

    I'm not sure but it might be possible to just lift all the data from your HDD to the new HDD. If you're transferring from a plastic model, then you can use the target mode (through firewire) to turn your MacBook into a HDD and then just bulk copy everything over to the new computer- missing out the parallels and such.
    Also, if this isn't practical or has too many holes in it, you could invest in a HDD caddy. Take the HDD out of the new Mac and put it into the caddy, then format as Mac journal file system and clone everything from the white onto the caddy.
    If neither of these works, you can always transfer everything using the Apple utility then uninstall parallels and reset the partitions- its possible, shouldn't take to long to alter the settings.

    i contacted what I thought was Brother Support for my new printer, then I got skeptical.  He gained access through a program called TeamViewer, is my Mac safe?

    They're probably just interested in getting $ from you, there are several companies who advertise in a way that suggests 'official' support for all sorts of things. Unfortunately, if they had access as you describe, they potentially could have installed other software and/or read any of your files.
    Ideally - change all passwords for email/banking/login & restore a backup from before this happened.
