I am giving my Mac to my parents, can they take over the apple care agrement as it has 2 years left...

Yes. The warranty applies to the computer. Your parents do not have to do anything. If the Mac needs a warranty repair it will be done for them.

  • The app store on my laptop is asking for my husband's apple id and password to update my apps, but he is not a user on my computer.  How do I change that?  The apple id email is grayed out, so I cannot select it.

    Delete and redownload those applications.

  • My iPod touch needs to be restored. however, all of my movies/apps/songs/photos are not backed up on my computer because the shop on my computer does not work. can i still get the memory on my iPod touch 32gb back?

    If you weren't able to sync the purchases to a computer previously and now your iPod needs to be restored so you can't sync it now, then you may be out of luck and will need to purchase your content again. Officially Apple does not allow redownloads of purchased items other than iPhone/iPod touch applications and iBooks. The official statement of their policy can be found here, among other places.
    You can try contacting iTunes Store Customer Service (select the "Music Purchases" or "Video Purchases" category, as appropriate, then "Lost or Missing Items". You'll find either an "Express Lane" button - just follow the instructions to get to the contact form - or an "Email Us" button) ") and explaining what happened. Reportedly in some cases Apple has allowed redownloading on a one-time basis. But don't count on it. 
    Good luck.

  • HT4279 I have a Macbook Pro (late 2012) and I would like to connect it to 2 screens simultaneously (1 screen is a TV and can only take HDMI, the other is a larger computer screen and has both VGA and HDMI connections). How can I do this?

    I have a Macbook Pro (late 2012) and I would like to connect it to 2 screens simultaneously (1 screen is a TV and can only take HDMI, the other is a larger computer screen and has both VGA and HDMI connections). How can I do this?

    The article you cited refers to The Mac Pro, a 50lb silver tower -- not a notebook computer.
    Everymac.com says:
    2nd Display Support:
    Dual/Mirroring*
    2nd Max. Resolution:
    2560x1600 (x2*)
    Details:
    *This model supports a simultaneous maximum resolution up to 2560x1600 on two external displays via Thunderbolt. Alternately, it can support a single display up to 2560x1600 via Thunderbolt and a single display up to 1920x1200 via HDMI. Although it can theoretically power all three external displays, as confirmed by a helpful reader, it runs too hot with three displays connected.
    Also see: How many external displays can the Retina Display MacBook Pro models support? What is the maximum supported resolution of each? Are adapters required?
    When using other than ThunderBolt displays, the ThunderBolt port is directly compatible with Mini DisplayPort, and can be forced into compatibility (with Single-Link DVI or HDMI up to 1920 wide) with a simple adapter.
    To adapt to wider displays, an ACTIVE Dual-Link adapter is needed, about US$100.

    No. Wiping the HD will erase the OS on it.

  • How do I transfer my songs from my old computer to my laptop? They are both the same iTunes account

    How do I transfer my songs from my old computer to my laptop? They are both the same iTunes account.

    These are two possible approaches that should work to move an existing iTunes library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase are reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where computer has died with no backup then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • I have the i phone four and just uploaded to my computer and now it will not work  has the apple logo with a long oval bar under it

    i have the i phone four and just uploaded to my computer and now it will not work  has the apple logo with a long oval bar under it

    It may be that it is stuck loading. You will want to probably first attempt a Hard Reset (Home Button + Power Button for 5-10s until it restarts with an Apple Logo then let it load up) and see if this will get it working.

  • Hello, I'm trying to transfer my old itunes library to a new computer using home sharing. It's switched on in both computers, but I can't see the old library in the new computer. But I can see tracks from the new computer on the old one. Please help.

    Apologies for poor syntax, my arm's a little sore. Yes, one computer (old) is vista, new is Windows 8. Shouldn't I be able to import the whole library using home sharing? Am I doing something wrong? Thank you in advance

    I am having the same issue.  I recently purchased a new laptop and I have spent the last 3 days using the home share to slowly transfer all 22,000 songs.  However yesterday morning when I turned on both computers to continue the process I am having the following issue:
    both computers are running the same windows OS (8)
    both computers are running the same version of itunes
    both computers are logged in with the same apple ID
    both computers have home sharing turned on
    Now however I can see the NEW computers itunes library in the drop down box on the OLD computer, however I can not see the OLD computers itunes library on the NEW computer.  I can no longer see "HOME SHARES" on the drop down LIBRARY list on the new computer.  I've taken the following steps to correct the error:
    reset the router
    completely shut down BOTH computers and brought them back up
    reopened itunes
    re-logged in on both PC's
    re-activated both PC's with home share
    The articles and help from the apple sites are worthless and it says if you can't see a library just turn home sharing off then back on - I've completed the above steps NUMEROUS times.  After spending 4 days on transferring my music I really do not want to have to start over by using an external hard drive and then importing that way.  I would like some help on discovering why the new laptop is no longer seeing my old library. (When it has been working up to this point) 
    Thanks in advance.

  • HT1926 I was prompted to install iTunes 11.1.4 this morning. It failed (first time EVER) with the comment that 'msvcr80.dll' was not available. Upon searching for that .dll in my computer, I found it to be all over the place! Thoughts?

    I've NEVER had a version update fail. I did go to 'Tools' and download for a manual install of this update as the info screen suggested. It, too, failed. After searching for the 'missing' msvcr80.dll on my computer, I found it all over the place!
    Ran a malware & virus scan with nothing evil popping up.
    Tried going back to a restore point before a previous update and doing the install. It failed.
    OS: Vista Home Premium x64, SP2 (and current with all MS updates)
    Now I'm pretty nervous re: syncing with ANYTHING-especially my iPod that has all my music I teach from at work.

    Solving the iTunes Installation Problems in Windows
    1. Apple has posted their solution here: iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows- Unable to install or open - MSVCR80 issue.
    2. If the Apple article does not fully resolve the problem for you, then try Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates - MSVCR80.

    transferring my contacts to my phone from my computer saved as vcard, what program do i use, i have the apple 3gs. I used Icloud and clicked on import in contact there a message came back with an error

    Hello Tehuti2,
    There are a few ways to transfer contacts from your computer to your iPhone.  I found an article that provides steps on how to import a vCard to iCloud.com:
    iCloud: Import a vCard
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3605
    If your PC fits the following specifications, you can setup iCloud to automatically sync contacts with your iPhone:
    Microsoft Windows 7 or 8
    iCloud Control Panel 2.1.2 or later
    iTunes 11 or later (for iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match)
    Outlook 2007 or 2010 or iCloud.com
    Safari 5.1.7 or later or Internet Explorer 9 or later (for iCloud.com and Bookmarks), Firefox 16 or later or Chrome 23 or later (for iCloud.com)

  • Firefox start page is several times normal size; takes over the other programs on the computer; requires control-alt-delete to close; closes other programs as well.

    '''bold text'''When Firefox is open, email message opens in Firefox in super-size and difficult to use.
    Remedies tried at suggestion of another technician:
    Reduced zoom level in F.
    Opened in safe mode & checked square icon in top right corner
    Reset toolbars and controls in safe mode
    Uninstalled and reinstalled
    Tried restore defaults
    Ticked all options in Safe Mode and clicked "Make Changes & Restart"
    Pressed F11 on keyboard
    Right clicked on F icon & clicked compatability option.
    Fixed one problem
    Statement : "Firefox is incompatabile"; did not fix; couldn't see any way to fix.
    Note: when I used Firefox before, my operating system was Windows XP. On one window, there was a reference to Windows XP but no way shown to fix.
    Friends, I have been struggling with this problem for serveral weeks and many hours. Internet Explorer has become a nightmare and I need to use Firefox. With all respect, it seems to me the reputation of the organization is at stake. Help!
    One last question: is there someone I can trust who could take over my computer and solve this? Thank you!!!!!
