I accidentally loaded my macbook and removed it from my find my iPhone devices

I accidentally removed my new macbook from my devices in find my iPhone and can't figure out how to put it back on to the list.

Hey baledicaprio,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, you want to setup a Mac with Find My iPhone. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
iCloud: Set up Find My iPhone
Set up a Mac
On your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click iCloud.
If you’re asked to sign in, enter your Apple ID or, if you don’t have one, click Create new Apple ID, then follow the instructions.
If Find My Mac is turned off, select it to turn it on.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a good one,
Mario

  • I need to install cc on my new MacBook and remove it from my old MacBook. What is the best way of doing this?

    Well, as above really. Should I just install again? Or do I export from my old MacBook?

    Don't try exporting it. Adobe software needs to be installed.
    On the new MacBook, sign in to creative.adobe.com with your Adobe ID, download the Cloud app then install your apps.
    You can leave it installed and activated on the old MacBook since you're entitled to 2 simultaneous activations.
    Or you can deactivate on the old MacBook. Launch any Cloud app and click Help > Sign Out. That will deactivate the entire suite.

    APPLE says:If the previous owner is not present
    Make sure the device is powered on and connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular network. Then contact the previous owner and ask them to follow these steps:
    Sign in to their iCloud account at www.icloud.com/find.
    Select the device from their Find My iPhone device list by clicking All Devices at the top of the screen.
    Erase the device by clicking the Erase button. This will erase all content and settings from the device. When prompted, do not enter a phone number or message. Click Next until the device is erased.
    When the erase is complete, click "Remove from Account" to remove the device from the account.
    After the device has been erased and removed from the account, you can proceed with the device setup process.
    i forgot to erase the phone.i just removed it without erasing.

  • Would like to use WD MyBook external SOLELY for my iPhoto library and remove it from my hard drive to clear up space. How do I do this?

    I just bought a 3TB My Book that I would like to store my iPhoto library on and remove it from my hard drive completely. I am running Time Machine with another external drive as back up and would like to use Time Machine to also back up my photos that will be on my My Book external. How do I move my iPhoto library to my new external and delete it from my hard drive? The catch is that I only want this new external to be for my iPhoto. I don't want Time Machine to start backing up my entire hard drive, since I already have an external dedicated to back up. I have not attached my external yet because I am afraid it will automatically start backing up my entire hard drive. I am very experienced on a Mac but not very technical so please, no big words and THANKS MUCH in advance!!

    First format the drive to OS X Extended (journaled) with ownership set to be ignored:
    Next drag your iPhoto library from your Pictures folder to the EHD.  When the copying is complete launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and in the window that comes up select the library on the EHD:
    Check the file path under the window to make sure the correct library has been selected.
    Once you've confirmed that the EHD library is working properly and has all of your photos you can delete the library in your Pictures folder.

  • How do I put photos in an album and remove them from the camera roll?

    I would like to be able to move photos into an album and remove them from the camera roll. Is this possible?
    I take many photos of mundane things that I simply want to remember, such as serial number of products. I would like to save these photos for viewing, but I don't want them to appear in my camera roll, where I have to continuously scroll through many such photos to get to the ones that I want to view there.
    I know that Apple has a "hide" feature, but it doesn't actually do anything. When I press-and-hold on individual photos, the photos stay in the camera roll: they aren't hidden at all. It's not clear what the purpose of this function is at all.

    You don't do this, as the photos are in the camera roll.  That is where they live.  When you make an album you are simply making a list of pointer to your photos in camera roll.
    If you remove them from the camera roll, then they are gone. 
    Photos in albums are not in two places.  They are in only one place, the camera roll.  The album merely contains pointers to those pics, so that you can categorize them however you like.
    You should be importing these pics to your computer.  I find it far easier to organize my photos on my computer, then sync them to the iPhone.

  • I have about 130 gigs of movies on my iTunes and was wondering if I can just put them on my backup hard drive and remove them from my main computer to free up the space

    I have about 130 gigs of movies on my iTunes and was wondering if I can just put them on my backup hard drive and remove them from my main computer to free up the space.

    I haven't done this with an external drive, but I would imagine it works the same way as if you have multiple internal drives.  Also hopefully it works with less headache in OSX than in windows.
    Anyway, move all your music over to your external, and then go into itunes -> preferences -> advanced -> iTunes media folder location.  Navigate to your drive, and pick the folder you want.  Ensure that your folders are set up like they are in your ~/Music/iTunes folder, or wherever your iTunes is currently pointing.  Then quit and restart itunes.  If your music doesn't show up, try dragging your music folder from your external onto itunes, and it will hopefully update your library.xml.
    As far as Jerry's problem goes, you could try adding another music folder to your library.xml, but I really have no idea whether this will work or not.  If you want to give it a try (can't promise you won't corrupt your library.xml, so make a copy beforehand) you can find the music folder xml element right near the top of the xml file (open it with textedit/textmate/whatever text editor you want (NOT WORD)).  Curious to know if this works, and if it doesn't I have other ideas so let me know.

    I have a Mac OS 10.6.8 server in my classroom that I have networked to student accounts on the iMacs in the room.  How do I create a folder that allows studnts to place their finished assignments in it, but does not allow them to go in and remove anything from that folder?

    You want a "Drop Box" style folder. You should be able to achieve this by creating a folder and giving it permissions similar to the "Drop Box" folder in your users Public Folder (i.e. write only permissions.)

    if you use iTunes match in order to create space and remove music from your hard drive, does that happen automatically when you subscribe and upload your music or is there another step to remove the music from your hard drive once you've uploaded to iTunes match?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    iTunes match won't automatically remove content from your computer, if you want to do that you will need to do it manually yourself.

    I've forgotten again how to add and remove mp3s from my iPhone.  Can someone please remind me?  I am an iTunes subscriber using a PC running Windows 7 and iTunes 11.1.

    Make sure you have iTunes 11.1.1 installed on your computer.
    Plug your iPhone into your computer.
    Open iTunes. Create a new Playlist and name it whatever you want. I use iPhone Sync.
    Go to your Music Library, click and drag the music you want into your new Playlist.
    Click on your iPhone along the top right. Click on Music and select Sync Music and choose just the new Playlist.
    Click on the Sync button on the bottom right of the iTunes screen.

  • Add and Remove Publishers from Replication Monitor using T SQL

    Is there any possibility to add an Publishers from Replication Monitor using T SQL.i am trying to configure the replication using T SQL..i can create all other steps but didn't find any way to add publisher to the replication monitor..kindly suggest..

    Hi Snehasis,
    Tom is correct, there is no T-SQL command to add a publisher to Replication Monitor.  However, the server from which you launch Replication Monitor will automatically be added to Replication Monitor if it is a Publisher.  Also, you can add additional
    Publishers using the Add Publisher dialog.

  • IPhoto, moving photo's to my document folder, and remove thumbnails from iphoto.

    iPhoto, moving photo's to my document folder, and remove thumbnails from iphoto.
    How to? Please...I cut and paste items, it is removed from iphoto for a few seconds then they appear again.

    The photos that are appearing on the mini - are they photos taken with an iPhone or iPad? If so, open System Preferences on both computers and select the iCloud tab. On the mini, click the Photos checkmark off and on the MBP click the Photos checkmark on (if it isn't already), then start iPhoto and select Preferences. Select the Photo Stream tab and make sure Photo Stream is on.
