HT1338 Is there a printable or safe downloadable crossover glossary of MS to Mac terminology you reccomend?

Example: delete = trash, I am having difficult using my MAC because teminology for simple software tasks are so different. Since I am only familiar with MS, it takes me forever or never to find the correct search term.
Is there a printable or safe downloadable crossover dictionary /gossary of MAC = MS or MS = MAC software that you would recommend?

Can you download and install Lion to another mac when you have lion server?

I have Lion Server but I have another machine on Snow Leopard that I wish to upgrade to just plain Lion. Do I have to pay for this?
I cannot seem to download it without having to pay.

They are considered separate products so, yes, you need to pay.

Safe download box in safari preferences?

Is it a good idea to uncheck the safe download box the safari preferences? I 've seen people talk about this & I'm new to the mac world. THANKS!

JoeJoe
Yes it is highly advised to uncheck the safe download. It could cause your Mac to download and install malware, or spyware on your Mac. You want to be in total control of what is being download from the Internet. Take a look at Mac 101. Welcome to the world of Macs and the Apple support forums. Hope your experience will be an enjoyable one.

HT5246 My computer won't let me select "automatically update safe downloads list" What am I doing wrong?

My computer won't let me select "automatically update safe downloads list" What am I doing wrong?

You are correct that is what I'm talking about. I did install it.
Now I can't get the check box in the preferences security panel under the tab "general" that allows "automatically update safe downloads list" to stay checked. Each time I unlock and check the box and then relock and close, the check mark disapears. This is the problem.

My sleep/wake button doesn't work on my iPhone 4 is there any apps I can download to make it sleep

My sleep/wake button doesn't work on my iPhone 4 is there any apps I can download to make it sleep

There isn't anything you can do about that except to get the sleep/wake button fixed. It is an integral part of the phone and is used for troubleshooting steps as well. Using a device without one is just waiting for trouble. However, if you want to, you can go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn on Assistive Touch. Then to lock the phone, tap on the Assistive touch button, tap on Device, then tap on Lock screen.

Safe Download of Ringtone

Very new owner of an iPhone and not very technical. I'm old also and want Theme from a Summer Place as my ringtone. Where can I get an EASY and safe download? I don't care if it's free or not. I don't find it on the apple site.

You cannot download ringtone other than from Apple iTunes, App and iBook Store.
There are apps you can use to make ringtone or do it yourself for free using Mac iTunes or GarageBand.

Is there any way to mass download Pages files from iCloud?

I use iCloud for all of my iWork documents, and it's saved me in the past (I had a laptop stolen, but all my documents were safe), so I swear by it. I just had a scary experience with a non-Apple program randomly deleting important documents, so I thought I'd be over-cautious and ask if there's any way to download hard copies of documents created and stored in iCloud in Pages so that I can back them up and keep them for prosperity. Thanks!

iCloud keeps copies of your iWork documents on your Mac so that you could work on them without an internet connection. It would then sync them to the cloud the next time you are connected. These copies are located in your user library > Mobile Documents in separate folders for each application. If you have Time Machine set up, & I certainly hope you do, you already have copies & backups.

Hi I have copied over my iTunes to a new PC and now there are songs missing and when try to re download on iTunes it says play. When you hit play it sends you off to search for a file that doesn't exist. When syncing it says 100 issues Help please

Hi,
I have just put my iTunes on a new laptop by hard drive method and some songs are not there. When I go into iTunes it's doesn't say download or purchase it says play.
So you press play and it opens a separate box saying search for file which isn't there.
I have read tons of stuff re this but still not got it fixed. It's not a HD issue because iTunes won't let me download it why ?
Hopefully someone can help
Thanks David

Hey Davidl678,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like you are unable to download the purchases from your purchase history, because iTunes believes the songs to be in your library. It may be necessary to delete the items from your library, then re-download from your purchase history. Before doing so, you may want to take note of which song are available for re-download:
iTunes 11 for Windows: Delete songs, playlists, or other items
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12359
iTunes 11 for Windows: Download previous purchases from the iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12491
Thanks,
Matt M.

On iTunes 11, how can I access home sharing if the music is from a CD? Is there any way I can download these songs if (A) I no longer have the CD, or (B) I do not want to pay $25 a year for iTunes Match?

On iTunes 11, how can I access home sharing if the music is from a CD on a different computer using Home Sharing? Is there any way I can download these songs if (A) I no longer have the CD, or (B) I do not want to pay $25 a year for iTunes Match?

Yes, you can copy songs that you ripped from a CD to your Home Sharing computer.
Turn on Home Sharing first on both computers. To do that, go to File > Home Sharing > Turn on Home Sharing. Enter your Apple ID and password.
Now go to your computer that you want to copy the songs to and connect to your Home Share. You can do that by clicking on the popover button located at the left top corner right below the play control buttons. Click on it and scroll to the bottom until you see your Home Share and select it.
Go to Music in your Home Share. Select the songs that you want to copy in your Home Share and click Import at the bottom right corner.

I can't download movies. I'm taking a cinema class where I am required to watch movies. My professor provides the link on an electronic blackboard for the movies.

The "right click" is a function of the OS and those keyboard commands do not work on the iPad at all with the built in virtual keyboard. I don't use an external keyboard - so I cannot attest to the possibility of that working - but there are no keyboard shortcuts with the iPad keyboard.
