HT1766 How to find Macbook Pro using Itunes. Do not have Icloud or find my phone function.

How to find Macbook Pro using Itunes. Do not have Icloud or find my phone function.

1. This is the iPad forum.  For Macbook questions use the Macbook forum.
https://discussions.apple.com/community/notebooks/macbook_pro
The hosts will likely move the thread there shortly.
2.  You can't use iTunes to find your computer.   You can use icloud.com from another computer to find it if you setup Find my Mac on the lost macbook pro.

    I have forgot my Iphone passcode. Itunes will not let me restore it, i do not have icloude,or find my iphone,and the closest itunes store is 4 hours away how can i unlock, or reset my phone?

    Try this:
    Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
       1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
           other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
       2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
           until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
                  * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                    Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                    release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
      3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
           device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
           let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
           charge, and then start with step 2 again.
      4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
           When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
      5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
      6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Additional Information:
    If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

  • I have a new Macbook Pro but it does not have iDVD. How can I get this application?

    I have a new Macbook Pro but it does not have iDVD. How can I get this application?

    I have a new Macbook Pro but it does not have iDVD. How can I get this application?
    If you are still within your 15 day return period.  Call Apple they will sent out iDVD at no charge.  (There are no realistic substitutes.)
    Nicely explain that you may return the computer without iDVD. That usually does the trick.  You MUST speak to a senior advisor to get a free copy. The first tier people cannot do it.
    408-996-1010
    800-692-7753
    If that doesn't work you can purchase iLife 11  (includes iDVD) on disk.
    IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

    I am running MS Office for Mac 2008 on my MacBook Pro.  I do not have the Standard and Formatting toolbar fixed into position, as I would expect and would like.  I can access them via the View menu, where I have to select and de-select them before I can get them to display, but lose them when I log off. Can anyone help?  I have tried all the usual and supplied help facilities to no avail.  Thanks

    Post the question in Microsoft's own Office for Mac forum.

  • How to connect Macbook Pro using thunderbolt to older TV

    Hi everyone. I'm trying to view streaming video from my MacBook Pro using the thunderbolt port to an older TV that doesn't appear to have an HDMI port (probably not an HD TV). I've tried using the VGA and S-Video (TV has both ports) using adapters, and tried F8 but nothing works. I am trying not to buy a Roku or similar right now, and have a variety of cables and adapters. Ideas anyone?
    I know that VGA and S-Video won't carry audio, assume I can just connect an audio cable to the earphone port right?
    Thanks in advance! Kate

    "Note that you'll have to change the input/source to the input you used from the MBP." Can you elaborate a bit?
    Let's say you have 2, 3 or 4 different things hooked up to your TV (Tivo, DVD player, X-Box). The TV needs to know which one you want to watch, so you have to select the proper input (the place where the Tivo etc. is hooked up to). This is called the input or source, and needs to be selected in the TV's menu. Make sense?

  • How to backup macbook pro to iTunes

    I have never backed up my macbook pro and I've had it for about a year and half now. My friend backs up her laptop to iTunes. and i wanted to know i would do that.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You can only make backups of a Mac on an external hard disk, not on iTunes. iTunes is used to make backups of iPhones, iPads and iPods touch.
    To make backups of your computer, OS X includes Time Machine. You only need an external hard drive or an AirPort Time Capsule to use it, and it is very easy. See -> Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac - Apple Support

  • I bought a new macbook pro and iTunes will not let me purchase anything. All computers unregistered. This computer is registered. Cannot purchase anything using my apple id and my apple id works because i buy things on my i phone. What is the problem

    I bought a new macbook pro and now every time i try to buy anything with my apple id it doesn't go through. I tried Ibooks and iTunes but neither one will work. I have registered this computer and even tried unregistering all the other computers but that did not do anything. I also checked my form of payment and that is not the problem either because i have no problems what so ever buying anything on my iPhone or my desktop computer.
    It is just this computer.
    I try to buy something and something pops up and says... "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (-45054). There was an error in the iTunes store. Please try again later."
    And i have been trying later for 2days now.

    Have you tried repairing disk permissions : iTunes download error -45054

  • Is it possible to burn an audio CD on a MacBook Pro using iTunes?

    I found two sets of instructions for doing this.  One from Apple itself and another from Wikihow.com. 
    I followed the instruction from each of these with 3 different setups: an older MacMini running OS 10.4.~, a MacBook Pro running OS 10.6.8,  and my new MacMini running Mountain Lion.
    Apple tells me to go to the Preferences panel for iTunes and then select the "Advanced/Burning" tab.  There is no such tab and there is nothing about burning under the "Advanced" tab on any of them.  Wikihow tells me to click the "Burn Disc" button in the  bottom corner of the iTunes window.  There is no such button anywhere in the iTunes window with any of these setups.  ***??  Are these instructions dating back to OS9???
    With my MBPro, I am able to do a simple burn that creates an ROM version but I am wanting to create an audio CD that will play on standard CD players.  Is that too much to ask?  The old MacMini has an internal CD drive, the new one does not nor have I felt the need to buy an external one for it.
    Added note: Sound quality is not a high priority as the CD's I am wanting to burn will all be of lecture type material.

    Hi,
    Create a play list that you wish to burn. Select playlist, the file from main menu which gives to an option to burn the playlist. A pop up box appears allowing you to select burn speed and disc format.

  • HT4759 I have macbook pro and i don't have icloud in it after i reformat my laptop. I also can't find a lot of my applications.

    I have a macbook pro and i reformat my laptop. I don't have many of the appictons or even icloud no more. How do I get all these back in?

    Your signature says you have 10.6.8 - is this correct? There is no iCloud on 10.6.8 - if you had upgraded to Lion, but then reformatted and used the disks which came with your Mac you would have installed an older system, presumably 10.6.8? You will need to go through the upgrade process again to get Lion, so that you can access iCloud.
    As to the apps, those which were not part of the installed system (such as Mail, Safari, etc.) will have to be reinstalled either from the original installers or a backup, and your actual files will have to be restored from a backup.

  • HT1338 I would like to perform a clean install on my macbook pro. I do not have the original disks that came the mac, however I know it was purchased in 2008.

    Upgrading MacBook Pro to new machine want to unistall. No disc.

    Strictly speaking you are supposed to supply the old discs with a computer since they are part of the computer package (for Macs at least).
    Call Apple Customer Support 1-800-767-2775 (telephone numbers for other countries - http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57). Provide the serial number and specifications of the Mac.  They may be able to provide a replacement set of discs for a fee.  These discs will be for whatever OS was installed on the computer originally.
    As far as your files are concerned, you can use another Mac or any retail version discs that will work in the old Mac to wipe the drive.  To be more specific it would help to know what computers and which discs you actually own.
    If you install an operating system (OS) on a Mac you also need to provide the discs (i'm talking about pre-OSX 10.7).
    I have seen Macs sold without the original OS discs.  If you do that then you at least need to provide the disc for the one on the computer.  I guess you could try to sell the computer without an OS but that might be hard.  If I was buying your computer I would want to see it boot, and I also might not want the hassle of getting an OS disc for it befre I could use it in any way.  You'd have to come down a bit to make it sell.
    Given all the above, I would still go with Snow Leopard.  The retail disc itself will be as cheap as the original.  The only things it might miss vs. the original will be bundled software (most of which will be outdated, though somebody might prefer older version to none) and perhaps the hardware test utility.  Having a slightly newer OS might make the computer more attractive.
