Did i need to reinstall os to new MAC?

and he tell me i need to reinstall os X to new MAC

SO??did i need to do that?

Hi chill2k;
It has been my experience that the factory install of the operating system by Apple is generally good and it is an extremely rare occurrence when a reinstall is required.
Anyone that will not accept that fact doesn't deserve to had time wasted on them. Forget about them. There is better things to do in this life.

Need to reinstall OS on new Mac Book air

I purchased a new mac book air and migration assistant overwrote the whole hard drive. I want to red o migration assistant and select only some applications. How do i reinstall mavericks and all the applications to the original state? Computer came with no disks??

What you are trying to do is erase the storage and reinstall Mac OS X. To do that, restart the MBA and hold the Command and R keys. That will restart you on the recovery hard drive partition, what Apple now uses instead of an install DVD.
From the menu bar, select Utilities, then Disk Utility. Highlight the internal storage name in the left side bar, usually Macintosh HD, and then select Erase in the button bar top center of the main window pane.
After the storage is erased, Quit Disk Utility and from the Utilities on the menu bar select Install Mac OS X. That will download the Mavericks installer and reinstall the operating system. This will take some time as the installer is about 5.1 GB...you need a good internet connection because this is downloaded from Apple's servers. Also, be sure you are plugged into a wall outlet and not running on battery power. You do not want the machine to shutdown during this.
After you have reinstalled, you are at the out-of-the-box form of the MBA and will have to resetup all of your information from scratch.

I bought a Mac PowerBook in 2008. It came with InDesign CS3. I did not use it. My computer was stolen in 2014. I had backed up the hard drive. I reinstalled on my new Mac laptop. I want to use the CS3 now. It will not download or install. What do I do?

Need to reinstall Photoshop on new computer

Stolen laptop...got new one and need to reinstall Photoshop CS3 on my new one. Adobe "customer service" is not helpful. I have the original $1,500 software, but when I try to install it. I get an error notice and it only installs a portion (PDF). Advice anyone? I know it's old software, but it worked up until the theft. I really need it for my work.

I know this is no help-but I have almost exactly the same problem and need to install my $1500 software on a Mavericks machine. All my work generated using Snow Leopard is no longer available to me.

Reinstall OSX on New Mac Pro

Hi,
I have a new Mac Pro and I want to rebuild it. I have a bootable USB Key that I made with the 10.9 installer from the App Store. This installer works as a bootable image for the old Mac Pro's and for MacBook pro's, but I can't get a new Mac Pro to boot from it. I think the issue might be that it is a different 10.9 revision that the new Mac Pro requires. Has anyone successfully done this yet on the new Mac Pro?
Thanks
Dave

You would need to do a full Internet Recovery like so:
Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer.

Reinstall apps on new mac

Being new to apple, having purchased my iMac the other day, I foolishly did not uptick the box for having the login via the cloud, then compounded it
by allowing the system to autofilll the passwords, I could not find them again and after many hours going mad formatted the hard drive and reinstalled Yosemite.
Obviously the apps (iPhoto,iMovie,Garage Band, Pages,Numbers and Keynote have gone is there anyway I can download these from Apple fox or do I have to pay for them after paying a small fortune for the system

How do I deactivate my existing photoshop on an old mac and reinstall into my new Mac?

how do I deactivate photoshop cs% from my old Mac and reinstall it into my new Mac? thanks! guy

You are allowed to have the software installed and activated on two machines so there is no requirement to deactivate on the old one... but you can.
If you do not have the discs for CS5 and need to download it, then you can download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site or else the download will not work properly.

Do I need airport to connect my new Mac Book Pro to a wireless printer?

Do I need Airport to connect a wireless printer to my new Mac Book Pro?

No and you don't have to use the wireless card in your MBP either.
A wireless printer connects to your wireless router. Any other device (computer) that is connected to the router either by wire or wireless will be able to use the printer.

Reinstalling CS4 on new mac

Hi, I am having several problems reinstalling CS4 Design premium on my new mac with Mountain Lion. Time machine backup reinstall didnt work I kept getting licensing no longer works 150:30 error. So I contacted Adobe and they told me I had to reinstall from the original disks which I tried to do. However, I keep getting a Adobe Air error where it prompts me to download the new version and then the installation hangs and it tells me this version is not compatible with CS4 and I have to contact the vendor to get an older version.
I went back to Adobe and they sent me Air2.7 which has now helped - although I still get the error it comepletes some installation. I now have dreamweaver and acrobat pro working. However, I would really like to get flash and fireworks working. However, when I try and install on the setup menu I cannot scroll down the setup menu and cannot view any of the lower options in the menu. It just won't let me view them cannot tab or arrow down and no scroll bar - Any ideas ?
I have also tried uninstalling everyything and doing a full reinstall - running clean up tool in between but then I have the air problem again ! It seems if I have air installed already I go to a different setup menu screen where I have to choose which options I want to install and am unable to choose anything lower down the menu and there is no choose all option.
Any ideas how to get CS4 installed on a Mac with mountain lion successfully ? Any ideas how to view the whole of the setup menu - no option to pull the box bigger on maximise it as far as I can see.
Thanks

Franniehhk the behavior you are currently experiencing is fully expected when trying to restore from a Time Machine backup. To attempt to recover from this action you can try running the uninstallers located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers followed by using the CS Cleaner tool. From your original post it appears you have already done this however.
This leaves one last option. Format, reinstall your OS, and then restore only your documents and settings from the Time Machine back up. You should then be able to install the software successfully from your installation files.
Adobe Creative applications are not designed to be copied from one computer to another which is basically what the Time Machine restore is doing. This is why the applications are not behaving properly on your new Macintosh.

Did you need to reinstall FCS after upgrading from Tiger to Leopard?

Need to upgrade from Tiger to Leopard mid FCP/Motion3 project and without FCS2 discs handy...I can't access them til after the project deadline.
I've read in a KB article that 'most' of the apps are ok after the upgrade-what's your experience?

Don't even think about it unless
#1 You MUST have a new OS to complete the project (i.e. new plug-in only works in 10.5)
AND
#2 You'll have a lot of extra time on your hands to reinstall everything when FCS doesn't quite work the way you need it to.
Of course you're familiar with the recommendation to clone your system before ANY upgrade.

Need to reinstall older version new one does not support finger scanner

I updated to newest version how can i download older version that supported associated dpql files

Google Toolbar doesn't support newer versions of Firefox because Google decided that its functionality was mostly built into Firefox itself now or otherwise available via a Firefox addon:
* http://googletoolbarhelp.blogspot.com/2011/07/update-on-google-toolbar-for-firefox.html
Google provides the following help article on the topic:
* http://www.google.com/support/toolbar/bin/answer.py?answer=1342452&topic=15356
Note that Firefox 4 is not supported by Mozilla anymore. To get the required security and stability updates, users need to install the later Firefox updates (currently Firefox 7..0.1).
