I can't find iMovie on my brand new macbook pro. I'm pretty sure it was there the first time I started it up, but now I can't locate it. Suggestions?

Does anyone know why it's not installed on this computer? I asked the sales guy before I bought it and he said it was there. And I think I remember seeing the icon. This is incredibly frustrating.

Should be in the Applications folder - can be added back to the dock - or if accidentally deleted should be able to get it back from the CD that came with the system.

  • I have a brand new MacBook Pro . I am trying to connect to the private wifi at my house but I need the IP address of my laptop . Everywhere I go on the laptop, the IP address is blank . How do I find the IP address if laptop is not connected to the wifi

    I have a brand new MacBook Pro and I'm trying to connect to the private wifi at my house however, I need the IP address. Everywhere I go to find it, the adress is blank. What do I do ?

    Your Mac won't have an IP address, at least not a valid IP, until you actually connect it to your home LAN. Not sure why you think you need the IP, you don't.
    To connect to your home WiFi you need to know the SSID name, IE the name of your home WiFi, and the password for it. Once you have those two things click the little antenna looking icon on the right side of the menu bar and select your home WiFi name and click connect. A dialog box will pop up asking for the password, type in the password and click OK/Connect/Whatever.

  • IMovie was removed from my macbook pro after I downloaded OS X Yosemite, I had it before and have used it, but now I can only get it through the app store

    iMovie was removed from my macbook pro after I downloaded OS X Yosemite, I had it before and have used it, but now I can only get it through the app store. I can't pay for it so I would really appreciate the help.

    Look in your applications folder for the installer - Install OS X Yosemite. Delete it. Then go back to the App Store purchases tab and see if you can download it. You might have to re-index Spotlight.

  • My brand new MacBook Pro won't turn on. What's the deal with this?

    I got the thing yesterday. Sat down with it last night and everything started up fine. I set up my account and then it was time for updates. Naturally, I said yes to the updates. They downloaded, they installed, and that was the last time my brand new MacBook Pro turned on. I've checked to see that the battery is fully charged. I've tried plugging into other outlets. I've tried removing the battery and the power cord and pressing the power button for 5 seconds. Nothing has worked. When I put my ear up to it while pressing the power button, I can hear it try to start and get about 2-3 seconds in to start up and then a click and nothing. Does anybody have any idea what the heck has happened here?

  • Brand new Macbook Pro (early 2015) with upgraded ram lagging in the simplest tasks

    I received a brand new 13 inch macbook pro (early 2015) with upgraded ram (16 gb) about two weeks ago. I was expecting it to do tasks faster than its predecessors (the macbook pro which came directly before it, which my father owns, and the early 2009 which is now a family computer), but became dissapointed when it began crashing basically as soon as i started using final cut pro, and ever since it has been lagging everywhere else! I have check my activity monitor regulary due to this issue and have noticed "kernel_task" taking a large percentage of CPU (when im not using the computer all that much around 10%) and it uses 1.5gb of ram upwards constantly without fail! I am aware that this is the operating system so i dont really want to fiddle around with it but it does sound a little bit high to me. Originally it was slightly tougher work on final cut that would crash it, hence why i haven't seriously questioned it until now, but currently i cannot even move my curser around without getting the spinning beach ball of death! Please help me!

  • Just got new macbook pro (13inch) and restored all data from old mac via time machine. Now whenAudio drop out for 3-4 secs every 10 - 15 secs!! What is going on and what can I do?

    Just got brand new macbook pro (13inch) and restored all data from old mac via time machine. Now when I p/back a track in logic I get audio drop out for 3-4 secs every 10 - 15 secs!! What is going on and what can I do? Its the same version of logic and all other functions seem fine!

    First of all, why did you say yes to Nero Back up before researching what it does with files already on the HDD? When I install Nero, the Back Up is the first thing I disable, it is a nagging pain, there are much better backup programs available. There are several file recovery programs out there to recover deleted files, that is, if that is what happened. Also, if you haven't overwritten the files, so you should be able to find them.

    You should be able to copy all the files from your old computer, although it might not work if the old machine didn't have an intel processor. When I got a new Mac a few months ago, I used the migration assistant to copy everything from my old computer's time machine backup disk. All my old pro apps, such as Final Cut Pro 6, work fine on the new machine under Lion.
    Later, I wanted to install Soundtrack pro and couldn't do it from the original disks. So I installed it on my old machine and copied the files. It worked perfectly.

  • I have a brand new macbook pro 15" with latest Lion.Can anyone tell me why, when I open word or preview etc that multiple files open?For eg if I open a word doc, the last 1-3 docs that I have worked on all open. why?

    I have a brand new macbook pro 15" with latest Lion. Can anyone tell me why, when I open word or preview etc that multiple files open?For eg if I open a word doc, the last 1-3 docs that I have worked previously on all open. Can anyone tell me why?

    You have a choice as to whether or not applications in Lion like Word or Preview (or even Safari) save and re-open previous documents or windows... just hold down the option key while quitting a program and when you re-open it you won't get the previous documents or windows when you re-open the application. You can see this by selecting the open program in the menu bar and when holding down the option key the quit function will change to quit and discard open windows. This feature in Lion is referred to as "Resume" and is great if you want to restart an app and return to what you're doing (for example in Safari re-opening existing windows and tabs from your previous session). You still have the option to close individual windows within an app before quitting and they will not re-open when the app is launched again.
    This Resume function is not related to saving your work (a word or text document for example). This is handled by Lion's "Auto-Save" and "Versions" functions. See http://www.apple.com/ca/macosx/whats-new/auto-save.html
    Hopefully this is the complete answer you're looking for.

  • Trying to set up my brand new MacBook Pro and it does not connect with the wifi network I have selected for this purpose. Nothing wrong with the wifi as both my iPad and iPhone are happily connected. Suggestions for connecting to the wifi network accepted

    Setting up my brand new MacBook Pro and it will not connect to the wifi network. Nothing wrong with the network which is happily working for my iPhone and iPad! Suggestions accepted for making this connection.

    Fixing this is a two step process:
    1) System preferences > WiFi/Airport ...
    ... check [√] Ask to join new networks
    "Known networks will be joined automatically.
    If no known networks are available, you will
    be asked before joining a new network."
    2) Remove unwanted networks from the list of "known" networks under
    System preferences > WiFi/Airport > (Advanced) > | Airport/WiFi pane ...
    Close the window and save changes. If no joy, do a restart to ensure you are playing under the new rules.
