Do i need to buy the same hard driver for my iMac or i can buy any hard driver 3.5?

Do i need to buy the same hard driver for my iMac or i can buy any hard driver 3.5?

You can buy any 3'5" SATA hard drive for the iMac. You can buy a hard drive at OWC.
Note that Late 2009 and newer iMacs have the temperature sensor inside the hard drive, so it's important to get one with that sensor. In this case, I recommend you to take your computer to an Apple Store or reseller and get your hard disk replaced

  • I have been using the same Apple ID for 2 iPhones. How can I create another Apple ID to distinguish them?

    Or, go to the App store, sign out of your current account. Try to make a purchase and it will ask you to sign in, or create a new account.
    You can do it through iTunes as well.

  • Please advise - we have 2 iphones, ipad ipod, ipad mini - can i use the same apple id for itunes so that everyone can share or do i need individual apple IDs???

    We are currently using 5 apple products - but all our contacts etc are shared - please advise. We do want to share our music but thats all...

    Create NEW account/ID for them using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old
      Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Use the new ID on their devices but only for:
    Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Settings>FaceTime
    Settings>GameCenter
    and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.   
    Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.

  • I would like to connect both my iphone and ipod to my bluetooth headphones at the same time. Is there anything that I can buy to accomplish this

    I am trying to connect both my ipod touch 5h gen and also my iphone 5c to my bluetooth headphones at the same time. I have been told because of the way the operating system works this is not possible. I used to be able to do this on my old  non apple handset.
    The reason I would like to do this is because when I am listening to my ipod and have my phone in my pocket it is not connected to bluetooth and I am missing important phone calls some of which are business calls.
    Is there any type of device that i can get from apple to allow this to work.
    Regards

    The iOS implementation of the Bluetooth Protocol does not permit use of a Bluetooth device with more than one source at a time.

    Hello,

    sorry for my bad englisch
    Nicclas

    If you need to purchase Snow Leopard you can still purchase a copy from Apple's online store's telesales agents.[1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775.] Ask for a Sales Representative.
    Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
    Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
    Snow Leopard from eBay
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.

  • HT1689 I bought an app on my iphone, and want to use it on my MacBook Air.  When I click on the icon on the MacBook, it won't open.  Do I have to buy the same app again for my MacBook Air?

    I bought a real estate app on my iphone.  I want to use it on my MacBook Air because of the larger screen.  I see the icon in my Itunes account, and when I click it to open it, it won't do anything.  Do I have to purchase the app again to use on my MacBook Air.  Thanks!

    The app you got only works with iPhones, iPods touch and iPads, but not with Macs. That's because Macs use a different operating system that requires different applications, so you have to purchase the application for the Mac

  • Hello everyone. I currently have an iphone which is part of a 3 people family plan therefore we use the same apple id. So my question is can I use my own apple id without affecting the fact we have a family plan?

    Hello everyone. I currently have an iphone which is part of a 3 people family plan; therefore we were told we need to use the same apple id.

    Whoever told you that has no idea what they're talking about. Ignore that advise.

  • Can I use the same Apple ID for two iPhone's?

    Can I use the same Apple ID on both mine and my partners iPhones? and will there be any troubles or problems that may occur?
    Thank you

    Yes, but there will be quirks. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495
    What isn't obvious is that you can use different Apple IDs for different functions on your iPhone; for example iCloud, iTunes & App Stores, Game Center, iMessage and FaceTime can all have different Apple IDs from each other.
    If you use the same Apple ID for Find my iPhone then both phone's locations will show up at https://icloud.com/find. Which can be good or bad, depending on your situation.
    If you use the same Apple ID for iTunes & App Stores you can have the same apps and music on both phones; some or all of them.
    You probably want different Apple IDs for iMessage and FaceTime; otherwise, you will get each other's messages
    Also different for Game Center.

  • Why do i need to buy the same app for each device over and over again??

    First, you posted in the Mac App Store forum which are apps for the Mac OS X, not iOS devices.
    You do not need to re purchase your apps. Connect your iOS devices to your computer, launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Apps then click Sync

  • I often buy music several times on behalf of my client.  I can no longer buy the same song more than once.  What happened

    I used to be ale to buy the same song severl times.  Now Itumes says Ialready pjurchased it do I want to download it agsain for free.  I do not I need to by it again for my customer.

    Purchasing music for your customers via your own iTunes Store account is a violation of the terms of use of the iTunes Store, which states that all purchases are for your own personal use. If you want to give tracks to someone else, you have to gift them though the iTunes Store's gifting mechanism. That's the only legal way to give tracks to someone else.

  • I've reset my PPAM before to get around Firmware lock, but I've upgraded to mountain lion and now need to do the same thing, but I can't reset the PRAM. I've heard of the chip that is on the post 2011 macs, but I must not have one? What to do?

    I've reset my PPAM before to get around Firmware lock, but I've upgraded to mountain lion and now need to do the same thing, but I can't reset the PRAM. I've heard of the chip that is on the post 2011 macs, but I must not have one? What to do? Also, I can not get start up chimes unless I have the factory startup disk in. Can the PRAM be reset with the factory startup disk in or must the mac boot from the hard drive? Need help.

  • Can I share iTunes with others in my family or do we have to all buy the same songs since we have different apple IDs?

    I am new to iTunes and am wondering if I can share iTunes with my family or do we just have to all purchase the same songs multiple times since our devices have different apple ID's.  My iPhone was set up last year to one iTunes ID and I just got an iPad but it has a different apple ID. So I can't even share with myself! It seems stupid to have my husband and I both purchasing the same music.

    There are two ways to share your content. The simplest is just to use homesharing. Simply set up homesharing on each device from the iTunes advanced menu (you need to use the same details on each computer), providing the computers are on the same network they should see each other and can be found in the list on the left hand side of the iTunes window.
    The second way is to transfer the content to another computer, play it and authorise it to play content from that account by entering the original account password when prompted (this only needs doing once for each account, not for each tune)

  • Why do two iPods need to share the same library? Is there any way I can change it?

    I owe one iPod and brought another today, and I just set up the other one. They're both the same model - iPod touch 8GB - and I've set the second one up. I've had the first one for some time, about an year, and I only bought another for a family member. I was wondering why do we need to share the same library and how can we change it. Help would be welcomed since we really like different kind of genres and we disagree on them, so we really really want to change this. I can't even say how much we need to change the setting. Thank you!

    Sherlocked, There are a few ways you can solve that problem.
    If you do want to share the same library, use the capabililty to "Sync Selected Playlists," so that each iPod will only get the music that its owner wants.
    Alternatively, you can set up two separate libraries.  This is easiest if you use two different Windows user IDs on the computer.  Then each iPod owner can sync to his own library.

  • I have an iPhone 5 from India. I am going to USA for studying. Can I use the same iPhone over there or I will have to buy a new one?

    I have an iPhone 5 from India. I am going to USA for studying. Can I use the same iPhone over there or I will have to buy a new one?

    If officially unlocked, you can purchase a sim from one of the two nationwide GSM carriers, AT&T or T-Mobile. However, AFAIK, none of the carriers in India offer unlocking for the iPhone. Thus, if your phone is carrier locked, the only way it will work in the US is roaming...that would cost a fortune.
    So, if you have a carrier locked iPhone, leave it home or sell it before you come to the US, then purchase an officially unlocked iPhone, from Apple, when you get to the US. You'll be able to use that phone in India when you go back.
