  • Why can´t I start writing directly when I open a new pages document?

    I have always been able to open a document in pages and start writing directly but now I can´t and I don´t know what happend. I must have done something wrong. Can someone help me?

    Hej, Ellen från Karlskrona!
    You have started a Page Layout document instead of a Word Processing document. Open the template chooser and look in the left column. There you will see the two types of documents.

  • Can I use a VGA/DVI-D monitor to a new 2014 Mac Mini?

    My wife's PC just died (it was a cheap 300 pc that lasted probably 5 years.
    She basically emails, web surfs, looks at pictures and plays candy crush on Facebook so she doesn't need anything too high end.
    I was thinking of getting her the basic 2014 mac mini but I have a VGA/DVI-D monitor (an older Dell) and it fits perfectly on her desk.
    Can I somehow hook up a new mac mini to either the DVI-D or VGA input?
    If not, what is the best monitor to get HDMI or should I look into a thunderbolt monitor?
    Thanks,

    Yes. You will have to purchase one of the following adopter:
    - HDMI to DVI and use the Minis HDMI output
    - Mini displayport to DVI adopter and use one of the Minis Thunderbolt ports
    - Mini displayport to VGA adopter and use one of the Minis Thunderbolt ports
    I would use the monitor's DVI input over the VGA input

  • How can I transfer old emails from my ipad to my new  i mac

    I have just purchased a new IMac and am trying to get my pop account emails from my ipad into mail on the new imac, does anyone know how I can do this?

    Thanks for that. I'm always a bit concerned about losing data from one to the other, I have no way to back up emails on I pad. If I sync will it take all emails that aren't on the computer and transfer them. I was under the impression that it would only sync email account details.

  • How can i backup using only a part of my HD(new to mac)

    I have an external 250GB hard drive and i want to use time machine but heres the thing... I basickly save all of my media like photos, muvies, music, ect. ect. there and i'm worring that if I use that HD for time machine, time machine will erase all of my media so it can use the HD for backup. What i wanted to know is that if i can just use only a certane part or amount of the HD for time machine, that way i can still save all my media on there... thanx

    rb26dett,
    Hmmm. I'm going to agree with -(.)^(.)- on this one, but for additional reasons. Time Machine requires external storage space for backups that amounts to at least twice as much space as needed for the initial backup. Pay particular attention to the "at least" part in my statement above.
    If we assume that you have somewhere around 60 or 80 GBs of data on your Macbook, this means that Time Machine needs at least just under 200 GBs of storage space for backups. With a 250 GB external drive, you're only going to have about 240 GBs to use, so this leaves only 40 or so GBs for your "media" that already exists on that drive. Are you using this much, something less, or more than this right now?
    All this said, you can give Time Machine just a portion of any external drive you might have. The key to this is to partition the external drive, leaving one volume for Time Machine's use, and another for your own. Time Machine can and will make a backups of both your Macbook's internal hard drive, and either the secondary volume on the same external drive or any volumes on other external drives that happen to be connected when the backup is made.
    Still, a better solution would be to have another dedicated drive for Time Machine's use, preferably a larger one.

  • Using the touch pad I can not exit out of the App Store I am new to mac

    New to Mac   Having trouble exiting out of App Store with touch pad.  I hit the red x and it just beeps

    kj.arm,
    which model MacBook Pro do you have, and which version of OS X is installed on it?
    If you’re currently booted into Windows on your MacBook Pro, restart Windows in the normal way, but hold down an Option key once you hear the startup chime — that will put you in the Startup Manager, which will show you an icon for each available bootable OS. Use the arrow keys to select your OS X partition, and press Return; that will boot OS X. Once you’ve logged in, select the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences. If the padlock icon in the lower left of the window is locked, click on it (and provide the appropriate password) to unlock it. You will see a set of bootable OS icons to choose from for which OS you would like to boot from by default; presuming that you prefer to boot from OS X by default, select the icon that corresponds to your OS X partition, and press the “Restart…” button. It should now default to booting into OS X.

  • Hooking up keyboard directly to computer

    I have a Yamaha DGX 205 keyboard that came with a CD ROM to set up a driver specifically for a PC running Windows. The Keyboard has a USB MIDI out line. Can I hook this keyboard directly into my Powerbook G4 and use it with Garage Band 2 or will I need to use some kind of different audio interface????
    Please help
    Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  
    Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    Forgive me if I was not explicit in my instructions.
    Download the Stuffit Expander Installer.
    You will need to know your user name and password for the Mac.
    Double click and run the installer. This will put a new program in your Applications folder called Stuffit Expander.
    Once Stuffit Expander is in place, then double-click on the driver file you downloaded from Yamaha.
    This will create a new application which will install the driver. You must launch the new application and follow its instructions to install the driver.
    When the driver installer tells you that everything is finished, you must shut down your computer.
    Plug in the Yamaha keyboard with the USB cable, turn on its power, start up the computer and log on. Now see if the keyboard and its driver are recognized by the Audio MIDI Setup application and the GarageBand application. It should work at this point.
    If you need further details about these instructions, don't AAARRRGGHHH Just report back here and we'll help you.

  • Can I hook up Apple TV to my HDTV? If so, do I need anything other than the Apple TV box?

    Can I hook up Apple TV to my HDTV? If so, do I need anything other than the Apple TV box?

    You'll need an HDMI cable to hook it to your TV.  Once you have that, you just have to plug in the Apple TV power and then plug it into the television using the HDMI cable.
    EDIT:
    If you don't have wireless you'll also need an ethernet cable to hook the Apple TV up to your router so you can stream content from the internet.

  • Can i hook up my ipad to my photosmart 5510 direct with a usb and some sort of adapter?

    Can I hook up my iPad 2 to my photosmart 5510 direct with a USB cord and some sort of adapter?

    You'll need a printer that is compatible to AirPrint, see this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
    You can't use the cord to connect.
    There are apps inn the app store that let you print over the Internet, without having an AirPrint compatible printer.

  • Can I Hook an Apple TV to an older TV that does not have HDMI Ports using a connector cable

    I have an older Sony HD TV and would like to hook my Apple TV to that TV but it does not have HDMI Ports.  Can I hook my Apple TV to this TV through a cable adapter that converts HDMI to Component Video and Audio (Red Green Blue Video Cables, Yellow White Audio) or HDMI to S-Video.  I have both these connections on my TV.  Thanks

    Thanks, I actually meant a converter box I just wanted to make sure that using that would work.  With Amazon FireTV Sticks for example I  jhave been told that only a direct HDMI connection to the TV would allow the device to work at all.
