HI. I am new to Apple, so please try to understand.
I just purchased the IMAC 26". I am very impressed with it after using Windows for many years. I am looking for an AOL browser that I can install on my IMAC. Does anyone have any suggestions or have you had any luck with with a version of AOL that you could recomend me to install.
Thanks All

Once you sort out that you don't need any AOL software because the sytem requirements for their software state:
AOL® System Requirements
Windows XP, Vista, or 7
Internet Explorer 7.0, 8.0, or 9.0

My brother gave me his macbook pro and I'm having trouble getting past the start up page that asks for my my name and password. I have an apple id and password but these don't work nor does me typing my actual name and the same password. I've rung apple twice and the first person said I had to reset my uusername account and told me I could do so by visiting the support part of the apple website using the link he gave me. The information tells me how to do this but I have to have the computer up and running to reset/change the account username and password. So no joy. Second time I spoke with a lady who told me the name and password should be the same as the one my brother used when he had the computer but having entered the name and password he gave me it still doesn't work. I've tried all the different name types of my name e.g. full name, no spaces, capitals and no capitals etc but every time I click on the right pointing arrow thing or press the enter button the password does a quiver/shake thing and nothing happens. My bro says he has a relatively new lion operating system. I haven't a clue what to do as I'm new to using apple computers and I've spent ages looking through the support section with no success in finding the solution. Any help/advise would be much appreciated. Ta
Resetting User Password in Lion and Mountain Lion
Boot into your Recovery Partition by holding down the Command and R keys whilst booting.
When the Recovery screen appears, go to the Utilities menu and open Terminal.
In Terminal, type:
resetpassword
...a small app will open and allow you to choose the user for whom you want to change the password. If you are the admin, be certain that you choose your admin user. Type in your new password twice and give yourself a good hint. Click OK (or Done or whatever) and reboot, enjoying the use of your new, hopefully memorable, password.
Good luck,

New iPod; serious problems, please try to help!
In iTunes it says my iPod is full but it is completely empty. It also won't let me restore my iPod so I tried deleting iTunes and re-downloading it but that didn't work either. Can help me??
Before we go on, I'm assuming you've tried a reset of the ipod using the centre and menu buttons?
If you've tried to restore and it failed, you could try to reformat the iPod from Windows, and then restore it from there?
In the My Computer window, right click on the drive and choose format, and perform a full (not "Quick") format to Fat32. From there, try and restore your iPod. Be aware, though, that the format will take a while, and there's no guarantees of success.
Hope i've been of some help. -
i have a macbook pro version 10.9.4 OS X, and i've try to transfer some videos from my mac to my iphone 5s but i don't know how to do it since i just move from my country and i'm new to apple product. please help
Import them into the iTunes library, using MPEG Streamclip to convert them to MPEG-4 first if needed, and then sync the iPhone with that library.

I receive update notification for my software which I try to download then I receive a message there is a problem with Apple store please try again later which I do without
success. When I cancel out I receive pop-up with the message"There was an
error in the App Store. Please try again later. (20)".
Most of the software I update by uninstalling and reinstall.
Mountain Lion updates work fine
iMovie I can not update and I can not unistall using Appcleaner
Icloud I can ot update and of course I am frightened to unistall.
I have contacted Apple Support and find I am sent from one place to another.(I do beleive there are no humens in Apple Support it is all computers)
This is not an isolated case as I seethe same question popping up in many other forums all with different remodies. I am new to Apple and I am therefore uneasy at trying some of others advice.
There must be a solution.Regretably, none of the above solutions has resolved this problem for me.
Whenever I try to perform updates (in my case, Xcode and iPhoto both want to update), I receive the following error:
An error occurred during purchase.
(of course, I am not trying to purchase anything, it is a free update)
If I press Retry, the above repeats until I press Cancel, then I see:
We could not complete your request.
There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (20)
I have been "trying again later" for three weeks now, with no resolution in sight. -
My dad and I have shared an iTunes account for years and I just created a new apple id but I have no Idea how to get all those purchases to this new account. Help please?
The old Apple ID (presumably your dads) owns those songs and your new Apple ID does not. However, your dad can authorize your iD to use the songs by going to Store > Authorize This Computer from your iTunes menu and entering his Apple ID and password.

producers this is a call that I make in the name of all users apple, you could add the LED flash to the camera of the new fifth-generation ipad please?
This is a user to user forum. you are not addressing Apple. You can give Apple feedback here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/
BTW: You do not speak for "all users apple". I for one have a LONG list of feature I would rather see than a flash for the iPad. -

Hi, i buy new phone in ukraine,but when i try add new device on my apple support profile,it says that serial nuber already used by another apple id please help what can i do?!thx
You purchased a gray market phone. The iPhone is not available for sale from any Authorized source in Ukraine. There are no authorized or supported carriers in Ukraine.
Take it ack and get your money back.
If you want an iPhone, go to a country where unlocked iPhones are available for legitimate sale and purchase one directly from Apple.
