HT4906 I PURCHASED THE LATEST VERSION OF IPHOTO FROM THE MAC APP STORE, AND WOULD LIKE IT TO WORK ON THREE OF OUR COMPUTER'S. HOW CAN I DO THAT.
If I purchase the latest version of iphoto from the Mac app store on my Macbook Pro, how do I get it to run on my two other Mac computers, which are desk top computer's?
Sign into the App Store on each computer that does not have iPhoto. Use the same Apple ID used to purchase it. Locate iPhoto in your Purchased list and click on the active Install link.

I currently have the Mac OS X v10.5.8 and want to get the new operating system but I don't know how to do it. I don't have the Mac App Store and can't get it because of my version. What do I do?
The Early 2006 model 1,1 Core Duo can only run a maximum of 10.6 Snow Leopard. The models Late 2006 Core 2 Duos 2,1 through Early 2008 4,1 can only run a maximum of 10.7 Lion. The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody through the Mid 2010 White Unibody model 7,1 can run 10.8 Mountain Lion.
To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.
The Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD should still be available from Apple for $20. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775 to purchase it. It may still be in the Legacy Products list.
If they no longer have any in stock you will have to buy it from eBay or Apple resellers that still have stock. But you will have to pay a premium since the DVDs are no longer being made. Snow Leopard DVDs are already up to $100 on Amazon.

Once you are at 10.6.8 Lion is still available from Apple. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store. The price is still $29. You must have at least a model 2,1 MacBook.
Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications. -

I recently purchased adobe indesign I'm trying to download it but i'm getting a message that's saying “Install.app” can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer. Your security preferences allow installation of only apps from the Mac App Store and identified developers.
System Preferences / Security & Privacy / General tab.
Change the settings at the bottom half of the window. -
As the subject indicates, I'm wondering if anyone knows a way to use AppleScript or Automator to launch the Mac App Store and download any available updates on a set schedule.
I would advise against this. Updates sometimes reduce functionality or break programs. I would never get an update with working software unless there is a specific problem you are trying to solve.
I have read many desperate posts from people trying to go back to earlier versions for various reasons. This is easy to do with disk-based software, but with downloaded software, going backward can be more difficult. -
The backup files for my devices are saved to my internal hard drive. I have a small internal hard drive and would like them to be saved to an external drive. How can I change where iTunes automatically backs up to?
This has nothing to do with iTunes as iTunes provides no way to move or relocate the backup files.
A search of google or the fourms would reveal ways to create a folder link to relocate the physical location where the files are stored. -

How do I download software for a HP Laserjet Professional P1100? I keep getting the same message when I have downloaded the file "Your security preferences allow installation of only apps from the Mac App Store and identified developers" Help!
You can change the settings in Security & Privacy to "Anywhere"...
That should work... as to whether the printer driver will work, that's another question.
Good luck,

does anyone know what to do ?
The apps in the iTunes App Store are for iOS devices, iPhones, iPads, etc. The apps in the Mac App Store are for Macs. Apps for iOS devices do not run on Macs. Apps for Macs do not run on iOS devices. Your purchases in the iTunes App Store will never show up in the Purchases pane of the Mac App Store. They are two different versions of apps for two different operating systems. If a developer has developed a version for both platforms they must be purchased separately.

Aperture 3, the Mac App Store, and Multiple Computers
Can anyone answer this question:
I have Aperture 3 installed on my Macbook Pro since the Feb 2009 release. Obviously, I bought the DVD for install. And of course, when I log into the Mac App Store, it shows as installed on my computer.
If I bought a second mac and logged into the MAS, would it "know" that I have Aperture 3 linked to my account, realize it was not installed on the new mac and allow me to install it, or would I have to purchase a new copy at $80?
Thanks,
BryanBryan,
Only apps bought via the MAS can be updated or downloaded to another computer. Even though it shows AP as being installed, you'll notice it doesn't appear in your list of purchases - which is where you'd go to re-install. It only recognizes that you already have the application in order to prevent you from unintentionally buying it again.
But if you purchase another Mac you can certainly use your current DVD or download the trial to install it on that second machine - AFAIK the EULA doesn't prevent this as long as its for the same user and not being used on both machines at the same time.
I have the sneaking suspicion that Aperture will no longer offer upgrade pricing and instead charge a lower fixed rate (a la iWork) for each major version. What this means in the long term is a bit fuzzy though: while I'm all for lower prices, $79 is clearly consumer territory and I'm not sure how this will affect the orientation of the app in the future. That, and the influx of non-pro users this price drop will certainly bring. I believe the more users there are the better, but I just hope Apple stays focused on Aperture's primary mission and continues to cater to pro photographers. It would break my heart to see this amazing software devolve into iPhoto Plus... -
My Mid-2011 Macbook Air 13-inch (OSX 10.8.1 Mountain Lion) becomes hot to the touch when trying to delete large documents, watching videos after waking it from sleep-mode and when installing applications from the Mac App Store. This has also been happening with OSX Lion before I upgraded it to Mountain Lion.
The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
What needed to be done the day that you set up the new Mac was go into the Mac App Store (MAS), sign into your iTunes/MAS Apple ID, go to the Purchases pane and Accept the iLife apps that would have been there in a special section. That would have sent you Mac's unique identifier code to Apple's servers and verified that this Mac was eligible for the bundled iLife suite and then registered these apps into your MAS account.
You might try going to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/adoption.plist, delete the adption plist, restart the Mac and then go to the Purchaes pane and see if you can Accept the apps into your account. -
My country is not listed in the Mac app store and iTunes?
My country is not listed in the Mac app store or iTunes. and yes ive tried putting in false information like 'I live in the USA, NY' but whenever i try buying something it says "Your credit card information does not match your banks records, Please enter a US billing card.. and such. Because of this i have no choice but to use what you call 'pirated' applications. Any help fellow mac users?
Sorry, but it's Apple's policy...
"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."
