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.
The apps in the iTunes App Store are only for the iOS devices. These apps do not run on Mac OS X. If the app exists for Mac OS X then it is a version created for the Mac and it will not run on iOS devises. If you want this app on your iOS device and on your Mac, you must buy both versions from their respective app stores.

    Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

  • I have an older NEC MultiSync LCD 1700V monitor. I'm having trouble getting it to work with my MAC BOOK Pro with Mavericks. Is the monitor outdated?

    I have an older NEC MultiSync LCD 1700V monitor I used for my MAC Power PC G5 (with the Tower). I am discarding the G% and have tried to connect to the laptop MAC BOOK Pro using the 15 pin dongle for connectivity. I get the screen with the desktop and icons, but I cannot get any applications or folders to come up on the screen. Is the monitor just outdated for the newer softward, or isk there some fix?
    Please advise.

    10.9 Mavericks changes the way displays are treated, and the new default is that each display is an independent workspace. This can be put back to the "correct" Extended Desktop way.
    Windows in Mavericks reside in a single space by default, so they usually don't span multiple displays. When a window is dragged between displays, it appears translucent on one of the displays to indicate this. After you are done dragging the window, it snaps to one display.
    If you need an app window to span multiple displays, deselect the option "Displays have separate Spaces" in the Mission Control pane of System Preferences.

  • Having trouble getting my movie clips to my Mac...

    Hello!
    I recently bought my first Macbook (Macbook Pro), my old notebook being a Vaio. My mom is using my old one, so to clear up memory for her, I'm trying to move all of my important files to the Mac. I burnt a bunch of pictures and documents to a disk and transferred them easily enough, but upon burning and attempting to transfer my movie clips, I had no such luck. It doesn't recognize the format of the movies...whatever that format may be. I can't find that either, but I recorded the clips with a Canon camera (it has FS100 written on it) and viewed and edited them with Windows Movie Maker. Now, I can't open any of my clips from the disk that I had burnt. They still play just fine on the old notebook. I have no idea how to move them to my Mac so that I can view and edit them into a polished little movie there. Please help if you can! Thanks in advance!
    ~Christina
    P.S.: The operating system that I put is probably not correct, since I don't remember where to find it, but I remember seeing Mac OS X many times before.

    Hi Christina, belated welcome to Apple Discussions if nobody said it already.
    I've had some experiences with these new flash memory recording camcorders, and I'll give you a quick rundown of what I've learned. Many of them (JVC, Panasonic, etc.) tend to record in a .MOD file format, which is non-standard, proprietary, and unrecognizable by most software. I thought Canon was usually a little more standards-compliant, but it appears they also use this .MOD format in your specific camera model. There are likely a couple ways we can get around this though!
    In order to play the files, you will likely need to change their file format (.MOD) to .AVI manually. You'll have to locate the files on your Mac, and then manually change the file names so that the file extension (after the period) is .AVI
    At that point, a video player application such as http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html>VLC should play the files fine!
    You should be able to transfer new video files from the camera to the Macbook Pro with no problems as well. Just plug in the camera to the computer via USB, and also make sure the camera is plugged in to charge. Once it's plugged in, open iMovie (came with the MBP, in the Applications folder) and the MBP should take care of the rest.
    Let me know if you have any success with any of this!
    FYI, the thread that I got some of the above information from is here:

  • When I open an email with images, Outlook Express keeps defaulting to Internet Explorer rather than FireFox to get the image, since I have IE disabled this means that I see no image. I have FF set as my default browser. Please can you help?

    I first noticed the problem 3 months ago when a virus set a proxy on Internet Explorer. Removal of the proxy brought the image back, but this showed that Outlook Express uses IE to get images even when FF is set as default browser

    I might be able to experiment with this a little.
    Are you running a recent version of Outlook Web App (i.e., Exchange 2010)?
    When you save files using IE, what format are they in (e.g., EML, RTF, HTML)?

  • Don't knoe if you can help for this but i keep getting the error message " active desktop revcovery",desktop has been turned off. I followed troubleshooting tips and tried to restore. no luck. can you help?

    Desktop background turned white. shortcuts work ok.

    I think this is not a Firefox issue. Please try this: Right-click on the desktop, choose 'Properties' click the 'Desktop' tab and 'Customize Desktop' > 'Web'. Deselect or delete all the web addresses in the middle box. And click 'Ok'.

  • Trouble getting new Apps

    I'm having trouble getting more apps it know asks me to sign in and verify my payment info when I do it then says the payment is declined and this is happening when I'm trying to dowload the free apps I haven't even tried buying any yet?

    maybe you have entered the wrong details in your credit card or it is already expired. Even though its a free app and will not charge you anything, it confirms thru your credit card.

  • I'm not able to download the App Store with a software update. How can I get the App Store on my Mac?

    I have some problems to get the App Store on my mac. Every time when I do a Software Update, there is no App Store to download.
    How can I get the App Store on my Mac?
    It's because I want to set OSX Lion on my MacbookPro.
    Thanks!

    As you have 10.5.8 you need to upgrade to at least 10.6.6 to get the App Store as this was the 1st version it came with.
    A workaround is to get a friend who has 10.6.6 or better to download Lion for you without installing it. You can create an App Store account on the friend's computer I think to do this. Copy the Lion installer from that computer to a USB stick or burn it to DVD and you should be able to install it on your own computer, I think. You might have to create an empty partition on your own computer first for Lion installation as I'm not sure that it will install over Leopard.

    If you are saying that after signing into iCloud it is telling you device is not found, it could be for any number of reasons. If the battery is dead, if the SIM has been removed, or if someone else has the phone and they have restored it, it will not be shown. Also, if you located it once and then sent a remote wipe, it disables the abililty to locate the phone with Find My iPhone.

    Hi Baseballlifea5,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The article below may be able to help you with this issue.
    Click on the link to see more details and screenshots. 
    Check to see if the developer has an iOS 7 update for their app first.
