I have a wirless network. I connect all my computers to it and a printer. I can print wirelessly from all computers. I tried to add the printer to my new Macbook, which is connecte to the network, but can't find the printer on the add printer and scan icon on preferences. I downloaded a installation printer utility from the Manufacturer (lexmark), but it didn't work. Any sugestions?
Thanks,
Ivette

You would need to get the IP address of your printer then manually add a network print queue.
To get the IP address, on the control panel of your printer, press on Setup > Network Setup > TCP/IP > View/Set IP address.

I had final cut express 4 already installed on my new macbook but can't open it because it is asking for my serial number which is on the disc. I've put it in with and without dashes and dots and it won't accept it. What do I do?

I had final cut express 4 already installed on my new macbook pro at the shop but I'm trying to open it up and it wants my serial number. I've typed in the number on the disc labelled 'product serial number' but it won't accept it. The number has lots of dots and dashes in it and I've tried typing these as well, but to no avail. What can I do?

You do need the dashes.
Also double check that O & 0, I & 1 are not being confused.
The serial no. pretty much follows a three numbers then three letters approach.

I want to get off the plan start a new account but can't contact account owner

Hi,
My brother and I have been on the "NATIONWIDE TLK&TXT SHARE 700" plan and the account owner is a friend of our family.
I have almost fulfilled my two year contract (it will be over in about 1 month) and we would like to upgrade to a new Iphone and put my name as the account owner (none of us had enough credit by the time we got these phones from Verizon, but now we are able to pay our bills and would like to be responsible and keep privacy).
I've noticed that in order to accomplish AoL, curruent account owner needs to call Verizon and authorizes the account transfer, but the problem is, I haven't been able to contact her for a month(she won't answer the phone and no call back has been received...).
So I was thinking I should just give up keeping my number and start a new contract and a plan with my brother.
My question is, as just an account member (not owner or manger), can my brother and I get off the plan without owner's permission? She and I are not on the same plan and she actually gave me some kind of password so that I could manage some stuffs with customer service. I was actually able to cancel my mother's line from the family plan one year ago with that password , but I wonder if I could do the same thing with both my brother's and my lines without owner's permission.
If I can do that, is there any way to keep my numbers when starting a new account without having current account owner involved since I can't reach her?
If I start a new account and a plan with my brother and get the phone with 2-year-contract, rather than just upgrading to an iphone (while keeping my number under the current account owner like now), how much money will I be losing? Would it be a lot?

If you start a new Family Plan with 2 lines instead of remaining part of a Family Plan with 3(or more) lines, you could end up paying more. Not knowing what your arrangement is, though, we cannot begin to tell you how much more you would be paying.
For example:
700 minute Family Plan with unlimited texting for 2 lines would be $99.98/month + tax for a total of ~$50/person.
700 minute Family Plan with unlimited texting for 3 lines would be $109.97/month + tax for a total of $37/person.
Any add ons such as insurance, data, etc... would of course be extra. You may also have to pay a security deposit in addition if you do not have much of a credit history.

Bought new Macbook but can't get Aiport Express to work

Hello,
I just purchased a Macbook and am trying to connect wirelessly to my cable modem using my Airport Express that I was using with my iBook G4.
I had all my files transfered with Migration Assistant and when I opened Utilities under Applications and clicked on Airport Express Assistant I get a message "The AirPort Express Assistant requires AirPort %@ or later."
When I tried using the airport utility, it says that there is no base station found. I'm frustrated looking at the yellow blinking light on the airport express.
Could this mean that my airport express is too old for my new Macbook? It was purchased in 2004.
Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

The Airport Express is not too old to use with your MacBook - it should work perfectly.
Try running an ethernet cable between the Airport Express and your MacBook, then run the Airport Utility and see if it can then "see" your Airport Express and allow you to configure it.

Getting a new macbook, but can't use the migration assistant??!

I have a 13" black macbook, purchased in early 2007 and cannot resist the new 13" MacBook Pro. I need it! Problem is, I have already sold this black mac and need to ship it out before I can get the new Pro. Therefore, I can't use the Migration Assistant Utility to transfer info from old to new mac. Is there any way I can save files, music, and applications on an external hard drive? Would applications be able to be transferred from this mac to the hard drive and then to my new mac pro? Any other suggestions?(iDisk is too small to hold everything)
Thanks for your help.

Clone your system to your external drive using either SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner. You can then attach the hard drive to your new Mac and it will treat it like a previous Mac for the purposes of Migration Assistant.

Migrated files from PC to new Macbook but can't log into user account

Its the same account as was on my PC, and I remember the password for the account. But I have entered that and still cannot log in. This is a brand new computer.

Hi. I am trying to buy some apps on my new iPad but it keeps asking me to enter the answer to my security questions. However i answered those questions on my iPod years ago and now I can't remember what the answers were. I don't have a rescue email. Help.

Please help. It is urgent I download these apps.

If you don't have a rescue email address then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

I got a new macbook, but can't upgrade to quicktime pro.

I read that I may have to get snow leapard or something. Do I have to pay for snow leopard? I already bought a registration key for quicktime pro and it seems ridiculus to have to pay for both.

Click here, download the software, and apply the QuickTime Pro key to it.

There's a soft white dot on the screen of my new MacBook Pro Retnia

There's a soft white dot on the screen of my new MacBook Pro Retnia That is visible especially when the background is light. It isn't a sharp dot but rather a soft blurred looking dot. Does anybody else have something like this or does anyone know what it is? I'm thinking its s dead pixel but it doesn't look like one that i've seen on other lcd displays.
I set my desktop background to a 50% grey and that's how I found it. Now that I did, i can't stop looking at it. I tried to take a pic of it its in the center of the photo. Its not easy to see on the photo but, its very easy to see on the display. Oh and its not dirt or something on the surface. Not sure if i should go to the genius bar on it. I am worried that it may get worse. Any input is appreciated.

I also had this problem, same make and model and specifications as you have. Brought it into Apple and also called them about. They stated they have not heard of this yet although I find that hard to believe with the # of cases on this being reported. Must have been a bad lot or batch of Retina MBP's that were made and this got by quality control. But they were okay with giving me a new one on the spot.
As you said, doesn't show on darks but on whites; oh boy it sure does and it is annoying on photo editing and documents where white is all you see; about 1.5mm x 1mm big and bright like a little star. Very hard to detect at first unless you have the white background up as wallpaper.
I sent my MBP back for a replacement and told them I did not want a repair on a computer that was less than 3 weeks old. Stuff happens and no one is perfect so long as Apple and their resellers stand by and make amends by issuing new MBP's. I did not buy mine via Apple direct this time, but rather used a authorized Apple reseller and fortunately they agreed to issue a new one. Keeping fingers crossed.

I have an ipad I used with a computer which's now broken. I bought a new Macbook Pro and signed into iTunes with my usual Apple id and pw. I connected my ipad to the new Macbook but it won't back up my photos or Apps from the ipad to the new macbook. Help

What do you mean " back up my photos or Apps"?
The photo sync is one way - computer to ipad.
You can transfer itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries)

Thank you for your help! - I did try looking for all available specs about Keynote on the Apple iTunes website, and found nothing that could help me. HELP!

1
Close all iWork applications
2
Uninstall Keynote; this must be done with an application remover tool to delete the installation properly. Appcleaner is known to work correctly for this purpose, it is free and can be downloaded from here: Appcleaner Download
3
empty the trash
4
shutdown the Mac and restart. After the start up chime, hold down the shift key until the apple logo appears
let the Mac complete the start up procedure completely, it will take longer than usual as the hard drive is being repaired
5
Reinstall Keynote by logging into the Mac App Store using download / install

How can I access files that I moved from an older MacBook Pro to a newer one via Firewire and Migration assistant. The files show up on the new MacBook but cannot be opened. Thanks!

Get info then check permissions then add your curent user name (it was probably different on old Mac) and give your username full read/write permissions.

I migrated info from a hard drive to a new mac under time machine. It says I have shared files, but I don't see the old info on the new machine. Where do I look for it ? How do I make the old backup the base for my new macbook ?

The old OS was Mac X 10.5.8. I think the new one is 10.7.2 Lion.

Have a read here How do I set up a new Mac from an old one, its backups, or a PC?
