Have original 10.3 DVDs but how to update to 10.4 on new HD
The HD died on my G5 which was running 10.4.11 and I have had a new blank HD fitted by my Apple store in the UK.
I have the original 10.3 install discs but can't find the 10.4 update DVD (from years ago, of course). I need 10.4.11 to run CS4 (it ran quite well up to a few days ago) but how do I go about getting an update disc (from 10.3 to 10.4) so many years after it was introduced - I can see nothing on the Apple Store site anymore?
Any ideas really welcome -many thanks
Hi cleanair, and a warm welcome to the forums!
They're tough to find, but perhaps eBay, just be certain it's the correct one.
Your new iMac Leo disk won't work, its a machine specific one, and Intel to boot, but it may be cheaper to buy a new Retail Leopard Disc than a Tiger Retail disc or even the proper update discs!

I recorded VCR tape onto DVD-R but will not play on my MacBook Pro. I have already recorded multiple DVDs. How can I get it to play on my Mac?
"I recorded VCR tape onto DVD-R"
How? Using what equipment/software?
"The DVD plays on the device on which it was recorded."
Just a guess: You're using a VCR-DVD combo recorder. DVDs produced in this way will play on the device that made them, but won't play on anything else until they're "finalized." In fact, Macs will recognize unfinalized DVDs as blank discs until the discs are finalized. Check the manual that came with the recording device for instructions. -
I lived in the US for a few years, spent a fortune on iTunes [my then local Apple ID account]. Now I live in South Africa and want to use Match. I have a local credit card but how do I use my new / 2nd Apple ID and gain access to all my US music??
You have to be in a country to use its store - you will need to be in the US and have a US billing address on your account to be able to use the US store (that applies to buying and redownloading).
You can use iTunes Match in South Africa, do you not have a backup copy of all of your US iTunes purchases so that you can subscribe to it and upload those that aren't in the South African store to it ? -
I'm a MB Pro beginner (after 25 years with PC). I have an Iomega ext HD, but how do get it indexed?, and it doesn't come up with any results I'm trying searches in Finder, and it says "searching Iomega drive" - but I don't think it's indexing. How do I force it to index?
Well I'm leaning the other way. I think my present MBP will be the last Apple product I buy.
With the way Apple is going, all New Mac computers are sealed unit that don't allow the user to upgrade them in any way. They are getting more expensive initially. They are impossible to fix, even by Apple. All the parts are either soldered to the Logic Board or glued inside the case parts. The add on warranty only covers manufacturing defects and is expensive. And to fix one out of waranty is close to if not more then a new system.
The only thing different in a Mac, and most other products Apple sells, is the operating system and the cases they come in. As for the OS both have their glitches and at this time there are no viruses that infect OS X. There is more software available for Windows. More choices as to what hardware you can use or upgrade to at a later date.
Mac computers are becoming large iPads or iPhones with built in keyboards.

I have downloaded video to iPhotos but how do you get the video to iMovies
I have downloaded video to iPhotos but how do you get the video to iMovies
In iMovie look in the Event Library. You should see an Event named "iPhoto Videos" (assuming the videos are compatible with iMovie).
Each time you open iMovie it will look for any new videos in iPhoto and place thumbnails in the iPhoto Videos Event. You will be given a choice as to whether you want the thumbnails generated now or later. The thumbnails will appear in chronological (date) order in the Event window. Note that the clips themselves are not actually imported to iMovie - they are simply referenced by iMovie (that is, iMovie points to the clips in iPhoto).
Drag clips (or parts of clips) to a project. To start a new project, select File > New Project from iMovie's menu.
Please ask if you need more advice. Otherwise, click on Help > iMovie Help in the menu. There you will find plenty of good information about how to use iMovie, including short video tutorials.

If when you connect the iPod to your computer yu can't make a backup:
- Contact a data recovery company

If the music is in your music file or on an external hard drive (windows) then, on iTunes, go to file>add to library and then choose what you want to add. Then sync music to your iPhone and your done.

I have money on my old account how do I get it on my new one?
You can't.
Why are you setting up a new account anyway? Everything you have ever purchased will forever be tied to the old account, and you'll need to continue to use that account to update apps purchased under it. -
How to update table styles in the new Pages?
Anyone found out how to update table styles in the new Pages? I see it's done in some of the templates that Apple provided, but I can't find it. Also, the Copy table style command is gone, so I can't make my tables look in a uniform way, unless I use one of the built-in styles.
Thanks.I'm having the same trouble. Looks like no way to create an overal 'table' style and I cannot access the table paragraph styles either.

I am the administrator on our family computer with 3 other family member logins. I have downloaded the app for pages but how can I allow the other users access to it? I am a computer novice so i need some advice.
If Pages and the other applicatioins installed in the Applications in the root directory they can be used by everyone. By default all programs installed by the App store are installed in the Applications folder in the root. In other words, your family members should be able to use the programs. Can they not?

I have entered credit card data in KeyChain "notes" on my Mac. And I have keychain turned on, on my iPad, but how do I read my credit card data (notes) on my iPad?
If you "had to" create a new user id, then you need to move your data so that that new user can access it.
