Can I use an app already purchased for iMac on new MacBook Air?

Can I use an app already purchased for my iMac on a new (yet to be purchased) MacBook Air?

Thanks, Niel. As a follow-up, I need to know if I can also use the same app on a new iPhone and/or a new iPad.

I can't get a thunderbolt connection to work between my iMac and new macbook air

I would like to establish a connection between my iMac and new macbook air using a thunderbolt connector. Nothing seems to happen when I plug the cable in to each device. When I open Settings/Network it shows up the Thunderbolt bridge as 'Not Connected' on the MacBook and as 'Some Connected' on the iMac. I have no problems with connecting another device (iPad) to the iMac. Can anyone help please?

Nothing happens when I try to boot up using the command+R keys.
Did you hold down those keys before booting and continue till you get to a selections window? You should get this:
If you can't boot into the Recovery volume make an appointment with the nearest Apple Genius bar for a diagnosis. You're still under warranty.

Video Output for Musical on new Macbook Air

Doing first production of a musical.
I'm thinking of buying Logic Pro 9 to control the output of recorded audio and video for the show (as well as to compose a few extra pieces).
The features page on the Apple site says: Logic can let you view synchronized QuickTime movies on a separate monitor using output options like Digital Cinema Desktop.
http://www.apple.com/logicpro/top-features/
The Tech Specs page on the Apple site says: External video output via FireWire or DVCPRO HD.
http://www.apple.com/se/logicpro/specs/
I've bought a brand spanking new Macbook Air which has a Thunderbolt and two USB ports.
Would I be able to use Logic on my Macbook Air to output my video? (I was thinking I would do it to a projector either through WiFi or a (yellow) composite cable.)
(The alternative I was thinking of was to use MuseScore to enter the notation for the extra pieces. Garageband for the audio output (it's missing a few instruments [e.g. clarinet, xylophone]) and plain old Quicktime for the video output.
Thanks!

When I login to my bank, I get the message: 403 - Forbidden: Access is denied. You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied. Have new MacBook Air with Yosemite. How to solve this problem?

When I try to login to the website of my bank, I get the following error message:
403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.
You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.
I have a new MacBook Air with OS Yosemite installed.
What is the problem and how can I solve it?

Some websites require a special client certficate for access. If you don't have that certficate, you'll have to contact the site operator to find out how to get one.
Sometimes the problem is caused by a web server that is configured to request an optional client certificate. Safari treats the request as mandatory. In that case, other browsers such as Firefox and Chrome may be able to connect to the site, because they ignore the request.
The first time you were prompted for a certificate, you may have clicked through a dialog that requested access to the Apple certificate in your keychain that is used to secure the iMessage service. In that case, you may be able to regain access to the site in Safari by doing as follows.
Back up all data.
Double-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
com.apple.idms.appleid.prd
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Paste into the search field in the Keychain Access window by clicking in it and pressing the key combination command-V. An item may appear in the list of keychain items. The Name will begin with string you searched for, and the Kind will be "certificate."
Delete the item by selecting it and pressing the delete key. It will be recreated automatically the next time you launch the Messages or FaceTime application.
The next time you visit a site that prompts for an optional client certificate, cancel out of the prompt. You may have to do this several times before the server stops asking.

Have you contacted AppleCare?
The subject of your topic has been discussed quite a bit in these forums. The user-user solutions have been edited out of some of the discussions, ostensibly because sharing copyrighted materials, such as a useable MBA special Build of OS X 10.7 Build 11A2063, is prohibited. Many have found that this particular build is not available for download from Apple, via the Internet Recovery or the Apple Store. I would think that it is due to change at any time, and perhaps has been done already. AppleCare should be able to provide that information sooner than anyone here.

Which is better graphic for iMac 2007 or MacBook Air 2012

iMac use ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro 256 MB and MacBook Air use intel graphic 5000m so which is better?

Without knowing how you intend to use the computer it's impossible to say, also you are comparing apples and oranges.

Can't get the music from my iPhone onto my new MacBook Air.

Hi, I just bought a new MacBook Air, but when i plugged my iPhone in, it said it would delete all of my music when i sinced. Does this mean that all of my music will be wiped from my phone or just the songs that weren't bought using my iTunes? I also have a PC with the same songs on it.

Have a look at the link below and see if it helps you out....

Can I migrate iWeb from my iMac to new MacBook Air?

I am running two web sites in iWeb on my iMac (hosted by GoDaddy). I am buying a new MacBook Air and need to move iWeb to that machine. How is this possible?

You simply need to copy two files across to the new Mac: one is the iWeb application itself, and the other is a file called Domain which live in (user)/Library/Application Support/iWeb.
(Apple have hidden the user’s Library folder in Lion and Mountain Lion to casual viewers, in an attempt to stop new Mac users messing their machines up. To access it, in the Finder go to the ‘Go’ menu and hold down the Option (Alt) key; the Library folder will appear as a choice.)
However note that if your version of iWeb is v2 is is likely not to work well on Mountain Lion. iWeb is no longer sold, but you may be able to get a version of v3 by purchasing iLife 09 or 11 from Amazon or another retailer (or eBay).
Note that once you have made this move and are publishing from the new Mac you musn't publish anything from iWeb on the old Mac or you will mess things uup.

Can I use my epson sx425w stylus wireless printer with my macbook air?? if so how do I link it as Im struggling to get it connected wirelessly

Ive recently bought a macbook air and have an epson sx425w wireless printer which has been excellent
when used with my previous laptop and im reluctant to purchase another when its in perfect
working order, I just cant seem to link it to my macbook for some reason, I cant find my instruction
manual for the printer but do remember it was fairly straight forward linking it to my lap top
before?!
hoping someones had similiar problem and has a resoloution !! help please

I checked the Epson (U.S.) website, and found nothing at all about this model printer - no support, drivers, etc.
I also checked Apple's websites, and found they do offer support for the SX420W.
Maybe this will solve it:

HT4614 Can I use Thunderbolt to Thunderbolt cable to copy from one macbook air to another?

Can I use Thunderbolt cable to copy from one Macbook Air to another Macbook Air?

Of course, but you will have to start one of the Macs into Target Disk Mode, pressing T key while the Mac is starting with the Thunderbolt cable connected, so the MacBook Air in Target Disk Mode will appear on the Finder sidebar of the other Mac as an external disk, so you can copy and transfer files from and to it

Can I use my old Design Suite CS5 on my new MacBook Pro?

I bought the Design Suite CS5 two, three years ago and now I have bought a new MacBook Pro. I've heard that I cannot use the programs that I bought, and that I now have to start subscribing to the programs using Creative Cloud. Is this true?

Absolutely untrue. Download, install, and activate your software from https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-product-downloads.html
Deactivate the software on your old computer if you don't use it any more.

Is Snow Leopard already set up on a new MacBook Air?

I just bought a MacBook Air from an online Apple store in Korea. I haven't opened the computer yet or the Snow Leopard operating disc. When I open the MBA, will it already have the operating system installed? Or do I have to install it myself? Also, is there only one version of the Snow Leopard disc? I am asking because I cannot understand Korean and if it opens up in the Korean language, I am stuck. If I can select English I will be OK. I have also bought the superdrive that goes with the MBA. If I have to install the OS myself is it straightforward? Or will I run into difficulties because I bought everything from a Korean online store?

I don't know what OS was in place when your MBAir was packaged for retail sale.
If the box has a Disk that appears to have been 'dropped in' the box, outside of original packaging then it is coming with Leopard installed and you can easily upgrade it to Snow Leopard with the upgrade disk.
The original restore DVD's will be gray in color and located inside the packaging with a few other odd's and end's. You may never need to use them because the OS is already on your drive.
Since you've already purchased an external superdrive you should be able to boot from the superdrive by holding down the Option key during boot and upgrade your OS to SL if required, then go up to the Apple menu at the top of the monitor and choose Software Update. Get the updates, including the 10.6.1 update, let them install, then use 'Disk Utility' to Repair Permissions on the hard drive.
New machines are pretty straight-forward to set up.
When a Mac is first turned on it will ask you to specify what language to use. First thing. Just choose English.

Trying to dowload store purchase from iCloud on new macbook air

All I keep getting is a message 'you must authorise this computer before you can download previous purchases". This mac is signed into my iTunes, iCloud and everything else on my apple account. I've even purchased a tune thinking that would authorise it but it hasn't. How do I authorise this mac please?

Hello kevindunn90,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help with authorization issues. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice for the issue you are experiencing:
Authorize your computer using iTunes
You can authorize up to 5 computers, which means you can play your content on 5 different computers. To authorize your computer, you need to have access to it. You can't authorize a computer using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
How do I know how many computers are authorized?
If you authorized more than 2 computers, you can see how many are authorized.
Open your account in iTunes and sign in with your Apple ID. (Or open iTunes, click Store > Sign In, and enter your Apple ID and password.) In the Apple ID Summary section, you’ll see the number of computers that you’ve authorized with your Apple ID. You can’t see the names of those computers.
Do I need to authorize my iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch?
You don’t need to authorize your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but you do need to associate your iOS devices with your Apple ID. Your iOS devices don’t use your available authorizations.
How do I authorize a computer?
Open iTunes on the computer you want to authorize.
Choose Store > Authorize This Computer from the menu bar.
You might need to show the menu bar to see this option in Windows. In earlier versions of iTunes, you can access this option from the Advanced menu.
Enter your Apple ID and click Authorize.
If your Apple ID uses an expired MobileMe account, you can still use it to authorize your computer.
If iTunes asks you to authorize your computer again, it won't use a new authorization. iTunes uses the same authorization for the same computer.
I tried to authorize my computer, but I’m out of authorizations. What happened?
If you didn’t deauthorize your computer before reinstalling Windows or upgrading your RAM, hard disk, or other system components, your computer might be using multiple authorizations. Try deauthorizing your computer a few times until it’s no longer authorized. Then authorize your computer again, and it will use only one authorization.
Get help
iTunes keeps asking me to authorize when I try to play my content.
I need to deauthorize a computer or deauthorize all computers.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
BobbyD

How can I use an itune I purchased for my ring tone

Is it possible to use a purchased itune on my iphone as a ringtone?

I find the easiest way is to drag and drop the track into Garage Band, crop it to where you want it (make sure you have the cropped track drug all the way to the left, it counts the empty space as time and it can't exceed 60 seconds I think) and then export it as a Ring Tone to iTunes.
There was a way to export it out of iTunes and back in, but Apple crippled that :-(
