How do I transfer over my Pages program and all its files to my new mac?

I recently bought a macbook air and would like to continue to use my Pages program that I have been using on my old Macbook pro. Does anyone know if I can redownload it from the Apple store without having to pay or if there is another way I can access the program and all my old files?
Thanks!

The Apple Store is not the same as the Mac App Store, which is what I think KarenSelena is referring to when she says "Apps store." So, the question is, did you buy a retail box or a license for a downloaded trial of iWork '09 or did you buy the individual apps from the Mac App Store?
If you did buy Pages from the Mac App Store you can go to the "purchases" section of the App Store.app & download it again using the same Apple ID as before.

How to completely remove safari and all its files?

I have Windows Vista and I need to COMPLETELY remove Safari and ALL its files. It is important that it is completely removed, and I've already tried simply uninstalling (from "uninstall a program" in the control panel)it but it doesn't get rid of EVERYTHING safari. I think some of the files are damaged or something because Safari won't open. How would I do this?

Just go into Control panel and Uninstall programs. Select Safari and select uninstall.

How Do I transfer existing I-tunes library which is on old Pc to new mac book for I-tunes use?

We recently purchased a new Macbook pro, along w/an Apple Time Capsule(2TbHD-wireless router).
We have a pretty significant size (21GB) I-tunes Library located on our dinosaur Vista (64) terd of a Pc.
We have several copied Cd's in this Library in addition to multiple Songs purchased under different Apple Id's overtime in I-tunes.
We were able to transfer a copy of the 21GB library (wirelessly) to the time capsule. (which seemed to take a long time...2hours.)
Both computers are now on the Time Capsule home network.
The question we have is what is the recommended way for us to utilize all that is in our 21GB Library with the new Mac book.
Should I, in I-tunes advanced preferences identify the library location as the Time Capsule...?
Or would it be best if I transefered the 21GB to the Mac books hard drive?
Sincerely
Bill

How Do I add my ipod (and all its songs), to a new computer

hi, my husbands computer which had all his nano 3g library on has died, we have set up a new library on another computer, but how do we sync all the songs from the ipod onto the library? as it says it can only be used with one library, and I dont want to wipe the ipod clean, just keep the songs I have purchased and loaded onto it,
or....how do I get my itunes library on a new computer if that is an easier question?
thanks

1). Connect your iPod to your new computer. When you get the message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod.
2). When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
3). Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you only want to copy your purchases to the computer that can be done using iTunes, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
For everything else (including purchases) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
Comparison of iPod managers

TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
SharePod Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)

iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
4). Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.
5). I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

I web won't open my domain but a blank page.. and all the files are there

When I double click my domain in the Applications folder in i web, I web opens but with no info inside it. If I open the folder it has all the data in it- How can I make i web open my domain with that data? thanks

double click my domain in the Applications folder in i web
Just so we're on the same page you mean when you double click on the domain file that's located in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder, right?
if we're on the same page try the following:
delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
launch iWeb and try again.
If that doesn't help continue with:
move the domain file from your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
launch iWeb, create a new test site, save the new domain file and close iWeb.
go to the your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
launch iWeb and try again.

Transfer a VI and all its subvi's to new computer

I have a very complicated VI on an old computer and have been trying to find an easy way to transfer it to a new computer and bring with it all its subvi's as well?

If you dont really have a good structure of the needed vi's (as a file tree) you can Save to different location and it'll create a directory structure with the needed vi's. This can then be zipped and moved easily.

How can I transfer my old iTunes (playlists and all) from the hard drive of my old dead computer to the iTunes of my new one?

So my old PC died before I managed to back up my iTunes library onto DVDs. I do however have the hard drive from the old PC with all the program files, files and folders on. I also have the iPhone 4, which has my top rated playlist on but that only holds about 20% of my entire music collection on.
Is it possible to somehow find all my old iTunes music, videos, playlists, podcasts etc and transfer it into the iTunes on the new PC without losing anything?
Thanks for reading :-)

How to remove Firefox and all its files?

I've been primarily using Firefox 1.0 and mistakenly decided to upgrade to 1.5. Since then, it constantly locks up and won't work properly. As well, it keeps reverting back to the 1.0 version although I downloaded 1.5 and it worked initially.
How can I just remove all versions of Firefox and start over?
Thanks,
Jeff

Move the application to the trash. Empty the trash!
You can also delete some files from the users' library Application Support folder.
To find out where you have them, do a search in Spotlight (type Firefox, and wait just a little bit).

Deleting a program with all its files

Does Mountain Lion delete all program-files when I delete only the program inside the application folder?

If the application came with an uninstaller, use it.
For the most part, just drag the application to the trash. Some applications come with uninstallers under "options" on the installer.
The reason for this is that in Mac OS X most associated files are kept in the application package itself. If you choose any app then "control-click" on it, you can choose "Show package contents" from the contextual menu and you will see all the associated items.
You can also do a Finder or Spotlight search for any other items but they will probably only be prefs which will do no harm and don't take up much room.
These are ususally just plist files in Users/yourname/Library/Preferences . Also some apps will install files in Users/yourname/Library/Application Support.
EDIT: (Note that in Lion and Montain Lion the user Library has been hidden. So go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key to choose "Library"
Note: Some apps may also put a file in /Library/Startup Items or SystemPreferences >> Users & Groups >> Login items. (So, it worth a look here too)

How do i transfer data from iTunes on my old MS Dell PC to my Mac?

How do I transfer my ITuens library on my old MS Dell to my new Mac PC

Moving a library: Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its sub-folders and files) intact to the other drive. Hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) and open iTunes. At the prompt to create or choose a library choose the copied iTunes folder.
When this is to a new computer put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)
