How can i upgrade os x to os x lion with the code that apple gave to me?

Please, can someone help with this? I bought mac book pro and i read that i can upgrade my operational system to os x lion for free and apple gave to me a code number but i don't know how to use this

Launch the Apple Store.app in /Applications, log into the store using the same credentials you use to log into these forums. Once there, select OS X Lion and download it. The installer app shows on the Dock and is acturally stored to /Applicatons. To watch it's progress downloading, select the Purchased tab. Before installing, make a copy to another location, because the installer blows itself away after installing onto the volume it resides on.

How can I re-install Snow leopard having installed Lion? The disk supplied states that I cannot use the version of 'Install Mac OS X'...HELP!

How can I re-install Snow leopard having installed Lion? The disk supplied states that I cannot use the version of 'Install Mac OS X'...HELP!

None of the instructions usually given for downgrading seems to mention the fact that you will lose some data in built-in applications, including at least Mail. When you installed Lion, your Mail database was converted from the format used by Snow Leopard's Mail to that used by Lion's Mail. There is no way to reverse that conversion. Therefore, you will lose your entire Mail database. If your messages are all stored on a remote server, that may not be an insurmountable problem, but otherwise you'll have to restore from the last backup you made before the upgrade, and then you'll still lose all changes to the database made since that time.
Another fact not often mentioned is that downgrading is usually the worst possible solution to a problem with Lion. But that's the answer to a question you didn't ask.

How can I synchronise my iTunes Library on my iMac with the one on my MacBook?

How can I synchronise my iTunes Library on my iMac with the one on my MacBook?

Carolyn:
I have almost 10,000 songs/cuts in my music collection and, because of the poor quality of iTunes music, very few of those songs/cuts come from iTunes. My music came from me ripping it disc by disc over hundreds of hours. I would like to be able to add a disc and have both the iMac AND the MacBook music files (plus an external backup) be updated. Surely there is an intelligent, relatively easy to implement procedure for doing this. Perhaps I am missing something but your response doesn't seem to address the sync issue with all its implications...

How can i turn a photoshop file into a website with knowing code? can i upload Muse or DreamWeaver?

How can i turn a photoshop file into a website with knowing code? can i upload Muse or DreamWeaver?
I created a few images (pages for a site) on photoshop and want to turn them into HTML code for a website- Can i Just upload the file into one of these programs and make a file with the correct code imediatly?
I was reading about using EDGE Reform but i did not understand if i can create the code with it, in the end it says it still needs to be sent to website developer after?

You need to look at Dreamweaver as a code editor. You need to learn to create good, clean HTML code with style sheets to make websites with Dreamweaver.
There are tutorials that will take you from a layered .PSD file to HTML. Here's a good one:
http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/site-builds/from-psd-to-html-building-a-set-of-website-d esigns-step-by-step/
Adobe's Muse is a semi-WYSIWYG website layout creator for small websites (1-5 pages). But there is no way you can go from a .PDS file to Muse, you have to start the site in Muse.
I have seen a few Muse sites and they're OK, but there is some code that Muse creates that is kind of odd. If you want a good, clean website that will work for you or your business, Dreamweaver is the best choice. Alternatively, you could hire a pro.

How can i get a copy of my ipone messages with the number, date and time stamp?

How can I get a copy of my iphone messages with the number it was sent from and the date and time stamp? Needed for court purposes.

Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

You should probably consult your attorney to see if either of these will be acceptable.

Go to id.apple.com. Click manage your account. Sign in. On the left click on "Passwords and Security." At the bottom of your security questions there is a link to "Reset security questions by sending an email to your rescue email".
If you didn't setup a rescue email then you need to call Applecare.

HT5228 How can I tell if my computer has been infected with the Trojan?

How can I tell if my computer has been infected with this latest Trojan (or with any Trojan)? I did install the latest update to Java when I was told by my iMac that new software was available for my computer, which was just 2 or 3 days ago (first week of April). Now it is being said that there was a Java Trojan.
Many thanks for any replies!

Log out and log back in, if you haven’t done so recently. Launch the Terminal 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.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
Step 1
Copy or drag — do not type — the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
launchctl getenv DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES
Post the lines of output, if any, that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.)
Step 2
Repeat with this line (triple-click anywhere in it to select the whole line):
find /Applications /System/Library/CoreServices -type d -name *.app -exec defaults read {}/Contents/Info LSEnvironment \; 2> /dev/null | grep DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
If you get no output from either step, you're not infected with any variant of Flashback that I know of.

How can I upgrade my G3, 640 Ram, 500 MHz, with OS 10.2.8

Hi all,
I'm revisiting my old iBook, described above in Subject line. (Wow, it's been a while. Now use an iMac and MacBookPro. This little lovely is so slow!)
1. What is the newest OS that I might upgrade it to?
2. Right now, the wireless icon in upper right shows black rings--meaning it is picking up a signal--but it won't connect to the internet. I get an error message that says it can't find the particular server (no matter what address I insert). For example, it can't find http://www.apple.com.
Can anyone help out with these two issues?
Thanks!

Roam and Ronda, thank you so much for getting back so quickly.
Ronda, your post really hit the nail on the head for me. Trying to think out the problem, I thought it might be that I'm using an Airport Extreme now. I will look at the documentation or the app and see how to allow earlier cards to make contact via mixed mode.
Also Roam--long ago, I bought 10.4.1 for an earlier upgrade. I tried to upgrade my dual USB but can't get there. Upon clicking the restart button to proceed (as it requests at the initial screen when just opened), it restarts and I get a dark grey screen with a lot of confusing text (some overlayed). Some about kernal, some in various languages telling me it can't find a driver and I must reboot . . . .
But no way to get out except to shut down. Then found a way to eject the disk on startup. Yikes.
Per your thought, I don't have to upgrade if I can get wireless to work. I'd like to give this iBook to my sister-in-law who simply wants to do research on the web. I'm hoping Safari will work fast enough to be of use to her. But I have a feeling things will be slow. We've come so far over the past 9 years! I worry this may be more painful than useful to her . . . .
Thanks again, both of you!! Enjoy this day.

HT1212 I need to remove the restrictions from my iPod Touch, but I forgot the passcode. How can I reset it? I tried syncing it with the computer, but don't see an option to remove the passcode.

The internet&app store applications were removed from my iPod by restrictions. My father put this block in place and doesn't remember the passcode to reset the restrictions. How can i reset them without the passcode, or reset the passcode?

You can't. The only way to remove the Restriction password is to: a) Restore the iPod using a backup that predates the setting up of the Restrictions password; or assuming you don't have such a backup b) Restore the iPod to Factory Settings/New iPod.

How can I deactivate Adobe Acrobat 8 on a laptop with a monitor that does not work?

Or is there some work-around I can use? I got a new laptop and have reinstalled the program but I keep getting a pop-up that wants me to register it again. I have but it keeps popping up. I read in the user's guide for this version that "Note: If you want to install the software on a different computer, you must first deactivate the software on your computer: Choose Help > Activation > Deactivate." I figure that that is what the problem is. So now what do I do? It is a little hard to "choose" when the monitor is black.
As an added complication I am now getting an error message on the pop-up that tell me "A problem was encountered while trying to send information over the Internet." Help!!!
I am currently using a Sony Vaio T Series Ultrabook now with Windows 8. My old laptop was a Compaq and was using Windows XP Home Edition. It was about 10 years old.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Aimee

Can you plug in a remote monitor? You may have to use the Fn key with the screen icon typically along the function keys to change to the external monitor. If that works, then do what you need. You might also try putting the HD in another machine and see if it works there.
