Before i did the update for Lion I had a icon for find my iPhone. Now its gone how do I find that icon on my Mac book pro

Ok I am very unplease with this new Mac Book pro. i guess its not the computer but man when you get on any windows computer, they are all about the same and easy to use. i am having alot of problems trying to find things like where to burn a home made video. I call apple and they say to use imovie but guess what, you cant burn a disc there. i have done almost everthing i could and it seems this computer is going to cost me about 2000 bucks more by the time i finish buying the apps needed for me to use as a student. so most like i am going to return it before the 14 days. Please help.

Ok, I misunderstood. The Find My iPhone app is on your iPhone or iPad, not on your Mac. If it is not in iTunes under Apps, then try downloading it again. It is free.
iDVD has apparently been dropped with new Macs. It is rumored to still be available on the iLife DVDs, but I don't know how long that may last. I've never used anything else, so I don't know what to replace it with. I think Toast will burn a DVD, but I don't know if it will do all the design and menu things.

    If you had the previous version of those apps on your machine then the upgrade is free.
    If you didn't have them installed you must purchase them.

    Hi shldr2thewheel,
         it has been a while since we have last spoke, I would like to let you know, I am still working on getting used to the switch from windows to a Mac/Apple system. I do have a new question for you, I did purchase In Design CS5.5 through journeyed.com through Cuyahoga Community College of which I attend as a student, is there a way to purchase an online book through iTunes to learn that as well? Also, you know me, the struggling student, I would also, when and if the book can be purchased through the iTunes, would need to know if you do know of a much easier book for struggling students like myself and at a reasonable price as well for the In Design CS5.5 program. Our campus bookstore had closed early, and, so did the colleges library and our local library here where I do live, so, I cannot go to either place to purchase a book or to take out a book, plus cash funds are low at this moment as well but, I do have money left on the iTunes account to use, if it can be used. So, can it be used, the iTunes money, towards finding a low priced online book? I am in great need of assistance as I have a project due for my one course for this Tuesday, September 4, 2012.
    Sincerely in need of help once again,
    Kim

  • I have a iPhone 4 s I did the software update ages ago and lost my camera roll then did the update and they all came back then on Christmas eve they have all gone !!

    I have a iPhone  4s i did the software update ages ago and lost the camera roll .....then I did the update and all my photos returned ...now on Christmas eve they all dissapeared
    I now just albums .... All Photos  but that only has 77 photos ,  and that's it over 1000 photos have just gone ??

    Why should we care how many times you've written this?  Are you making multiple threads?  Are they being deleted by the Hosts?
    Did you make a backup of your iPhone before you updated the iOS?
    Did you import the photos to your computer?
    Were the photos in the Camera Roll, Photo Stream or synced iTunes albums?

  • TS3477 How can I view movies, pictures, etc from Mac Book Pro (bought in he States) on a Sony TV(in Europe). Do you have change the settings on the Mac to comply with the european TV ?

    I have a Mac book pro ( 7,1  version ) bought in the US and want to see some videos, pictures and movies on a Sony TV with HDMI connection (in Europe).
    When connecting both the pc and the tv, I get on the tv the opening screen of a mac book pro but although a movie is playing on the pc it does not show on the tv. Do I have to change something in the displays on the system preference screen ?
    Thanks for helping out.

    By 'opening screen' do you mean the spiral galaxy desktop?  If so, then, with the TV connected to the MBP, open System Preferences ➜ Displays ➜ Arrangement.  You will see an image of two screens.  At the top of the smaller of the two screens in the image is a small bar, this represents the menu bar at the top of your display.  Drag this small bar to the top of the larger of the two screens in the image.  The menu bar and dock will now appear on the TV which is now the primary display and all the action will take place there.

  • I want to update my itunes, however i'm worried it will mess up my library. ast fall when i did the update it caused about 40% of my library to disappear, including a lot of music from cd's that i imported. if that happens again, can i unistall v. 11?

    I want to upgrade our Itunes to version 11.0 We have not upgraded since last fall when about 30-40% of our library disappeared when an update was done. Is there a way to reverse or recover if that happens again?

    What you should do now is make a backup!
    Should something go wrong during the upgrade the following will usually work but it is no substitute for a complete backup.
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    Should you wish to revert to iTunes 10.7 after trying 11.0 first download a copy of the installer from here, uninstall iTunes. Probably best to also remove other supporting software, e.g. Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support & Bonjour. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram above, then install iTunes 10.7.

  • Hard disk stop working how can recovery may new hard disk on mac book pro and i not have recovery disk the recovery is installed in soped hard disk

    i have macbook pro the recovery is in hard disk and not have recovery disk and hard disk stop working now i want to change hard disk but how can i recovery my macbook pro can help me ?

    "it shows macintosh HD OSX 10.9.5 but the hard drive that is supposed to be in the upper right corner is not showing up. So it is booting from that drive."
    Ok go to "Finder" preferences and make sure the "Hard disk" box is checked.
    That will make your boot disk show up in the upper right corner. You can tell it's a boot disk because all the files will look like this instead of just being blank files.

    Hi Erika1987,
    If you have not saved the document and Acrobat closed then it's not possible to retrieve the lost data on the pdf file.

  • Retrieve data from a Hard Disk That was connected to the optical Drive of Mac Book pro

    Hi Experts
    I have been using a Mac Book pro from 2011 (Early 2011 Model), In the mid of 2012 I have planned to upgrade, and bought a 240 GB SSD and 16 GB ram from OWC, Installed successfully and bought another 750 GB WD Sata Disk and connected it to the Optical Drive Bay of the Laptop, using the optical drive as an external device now
    I was using the SSD as the main disk for all the applications and OS itself, and tranferred all the user library (iTunes Library, iPhoto Library, Documents etc..) to the additinal 750 SATA Disk,
    Last week the Mag Safe cable has been worn out and seperated completely from the adapter, I tried soldering the cable again and it was working for two days, third day The machine stopped charging and it was working until the battery run out of charge,
    Now I have bought a new Mag Safe Charger for 108 Singapore Dollars and it wont charge, read in iFixit Forums to change the Mag Safe DC in Board, so found a new part in singapore and replaced DC in Board myself, after doing this when I connected the new mag safe adapter, it fired the cpu fan for two second, I was able to see the green light the adapter and it stopped again and the green light wont lit up now
    Removed the logic board from Laptop completely and tried connecting the Mag Safe Adapter I can see the green light,
    So with all the above details, Iam confused whether its the Logic Board or the Battery that is giving me issue, I can find out the problem by contacting a Authorised service centre, but Iam thinking whether its is worth to repair it or buy a New Mac Book Pro ?, Because if I need to change the logic Board need to spend 900 Dollars + 100 dollar service charge
    So I was trying to remove the 750 GB WD Sata Disk to see if I can get the data back so I can buy a new Laptop without worrying,
    The real issue now is when I connect the 750 WD Disk using a sata to usb converter cable to my official macbook, it says the connected USB device is drawing more power than expected and it wont even detect the hard disk, Iam wondering why it cannot detect the hard disk even in the disk utility, is there any way to get the data back from the 750 GB WD Sata disk (which was connected to the Optical Drive Bay)
    Your expert advice is much appreciated
    Regards
    Vinodh

    Welcome to the discussions!
    It sounds as if your disk was not correctly formatted to work with the Mac operating system. I suspect it was formatted in FAT32, which is primarily a Windows format. This type of format will not allow the disk to accept any files larger than 4GB. That's probably why you are seeing the crashes.
    Connect the drive to your Mac and open Applications > Utilities > Airport Utility.
    Click your disk on the left and click the erase tab on the right. You need to format the drive in +Mac OS Extended (Journaled)+. Formatting will erase everything on the disk.
    Then you could try the drive again attached to your AirPort Extreme to see if that will do what you want.

  • Use the same itunes library in mac book pro and win xp

    Hi,
    I wish to copy my itunes music, that is on my mac book pro(osx10.5.4), to an external hard drive and play it on my work pc (win xp- ituns 7).of course without loosing my original folder on the mac. can I do it? how? I tried the consolidate option on my mac and the music was copied to the HD but I cant get the win itunes to recognise it even after changing the music folder in it to the external drive.
    thanks

    Windows machines can't access drives formatted in Mac style. This is probably your problem. If the external was formatted to FAT32 then the windows machine could access the drive.
