Bought a new iMac today and Garageband is not installed?
So, I was told that my iMac would come installed with the Mountain Lion OS X installed. It's not. When I do a software update check it tells me that it's up to date. I was also told that my iMac would have Garageband and iMovie on it and that it would all be free. None of this is installed and when I look on the app store, everything costs between 15-20 dollars...each! So, I went ahead and purchased all of it, and it won't download! Can anyone tell me what to do?
Welcome to Apple Communities
You can install iLife and Mountain Lion free > http://www.apple.com/osx/uptodate To install it, open App Store > Purchases and accept iMovie, iPhoto and GarageBand

I bought a new ipod touch today. I tried to install it and it says i need itunes 10.4 so i tried to download that, it said i needed mac os x 10.5 so i tried to down load that it gave me another message. how do i get my new ipod onto my mac? Or do i need to return the ipod?
New iPod Touch devices require a minimum of Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.8 in addition to a fairly recent version of iTunes. If you are running Tiger (10.4) or earlier, you can't just update to Leopard for free; you have to buy it.

I just bought a new IMac. I have photoshop elements installed on my old IMac and would like to move it to the new one. How can i do this?
Unfortunately, adobe doesn't have photoshop elements 6 available for download, as far as i know, so your best bet is to either get an usb dvd drive or use an computer with a dvd drive and copy the contents of the pse 6 dvd to somethiing like
a flash drive and then copy the contents from that drive to your new computer.
Do you still have your older mac and it has a dvd drive?
You can share files between the two using airdrop or an ethernet cable.

I bought a new iMac today. I'm using migration assistant to move all my software, but the time just keeps getting longer. It says connect an Ethernet cable for faster data transfer. I did, but that doesn't seem to help. Any ideas?
m1doc,
Are you migrating from a Mac or a MS Window machine? Either way you probably should be in touch with AppleCare, you have 90 days of free AppleCare telephone support. They can usually help on issues like this. If you don't know the phone number please use http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 to help find the number in your country. -

You are aware that you can only sync apps using iTunes and that the apps must be from Apple app store?
What did you install in the Phone Shop? -

My G5 PowerPC still works great, but what is the latest OS that is possible. I just bought a new HP Printer and it is not compatible with OS 10.4. Is there any hope?
A PPC G5 cannot run any version of OS X beyond Leopard 10.5.8.
You should be able to find a Leopard retail (black) install disk on eBay. A grey update disk is machine specific and won't work. -
I just bought a new iPad min and it will not complete the initial up its been hooked up to me computer 2 days no results how can i send a photo of what it is doing apple almost complete white bar but won't go 100% ?
Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,

I just bought an new iMac 27 and is trying to transfer all my data from a late 2009 iMac 27
I need your help. I connected the old Mac as a disk to the new one with Firewire / Thunderbolt adapter, went through the Migration Assistant menu. The new iMac rebooted and started with setup process again, did this twice then I tried to restore from Time Machine backup, only the user account and data. It started well off but now it hangs with 4.31 hours left. What can I do ?, please help men on this.
Best regards,OliSince it's a new machine, contact Apple's Support, formerly Apple Express Lane and let them sort things out for you.

I bought a new macbook pro and now every time i try to buy anything with my apple id it doesn't go through. I tried Ibooks and iTunes but neither one will work. I have registered this computer and even tried unregistering all the other computers but that did not do anything. I also checked my form of payment and that is not the problem either because i have no problems what so ever buying anything on my iPhone or my desktop computer.
It is just this computer.
I try to buy something and something pops up and says... "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (-45054). There was an error in the iTunes store. Please try again later."
And i have been trying later for 2days now.Have you tried repairing disk permissions : iTunes download error -45054

I just bought a new Macbook Pro and under current operating system, it list OS X 10.9.1 as my current system and says I can update to Mavericks. Isn't 10.9.1 the newest OS for Mac? This is my first Mac and I'm not sure about the way it lists the OS systems in the "about this computer tab". I tried to update to Mavericks and it will not allow me to update, despite meeting all of the above requirements. Can anyone help me?
Mac OS X 10.9 and 10.9.1 are Mavericks.

New Hard Drive and drivers are not installing
I recently got a new hard drive and now I cannot install drivers from the recovery disk.
mobile intel 4 series express chipset family
nuvoton CIR Transceiver
nuvoton HID CIR Receiver
Atheros AR8131 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (NDIS 6.20)
Realtek RTL8191SE Wireless LAN 802.11n PCI-E NIC
INtel High definition Audion HDMI
I receive device status for each one of:
Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged or that might be malicious software from an unknown source (code 52)
HELPWhich computer? There is a label on the bottom.
Exactly which hard drive is it? Give us the specific model so we can look it up.
Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device.
If you have restored the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media, that probably means you restored to a drive with the new advanced-format technology.
Try installing this driver.
Intel Rapid Storage Technology
