I didn't receive a cleaning cloth with my new iMac. Why?

I was looking online as for how to clean my iMac and it kept refering me to a cloth that apparently comes with the iMac.
I didn't actually get on in the box? was i meant to? It's the new mid-2011 21.5 inch model
How can i get one?

Did you check all the little nooks and crannies of not only the large box, but also the small one? As well as the little plastic envelopes? The cloth is extremely thin and only about 6 x 6 inches - it is really too small to do much of anything on my 27" screen, so I just bought a microfiber cloth, which makes cleaning easy and quick. If you can't find it, but want it, I'd suggest stopping at an Apple store and explaining the situation.

No biggie, but did anyone receive a cleaning cloth with their 3gs?

I just sold my 3g and gave away my cloth with it, had I known I wouldn't get one back, I would have kept my old one. My GF didn't get one with heres either. I know it has the new oil resistant screen but, they Still recommend a lint free cloth to clean the screen why would they not supply it anymore?
i guess I could go buy one.

But Apple scientifically tested, approved, and stamped their logo on the iPhone micro fiber cloth, how could I let anything else touch my 3gs!!!!!!
Just kidding.
Funny story.
I had lost my original iphone cloth and did actually want at the time the one supplied with the phone. The next time I was in the apple store I asked if they had any extras. They told me to call the 800 number and ask to be sent one. So I did, don't ask why just had a hard on for the black screen sized cloth they gave with the phone. They said they could send me one but had to charge me 6 bucks!
So I though might as well make it two just incase. So 12 bucks plus a couple for shipping. Stupid I know but again I just bought the phone and was so enamored with it so I wanted it.
So I get a package from ups about 12" x 8" cardboard box, 2 inches thick. Sure enough it's from apple.
Inside are two separate cardboard boxes about inch thick and about 6" x 3" with those curly "s" styrofoam in covering all sides of the two separate cardboard boxes inside the main box.
Inside (each) of those smaller 6" x 3" boxes was a black foam pad similar to the inside/top of your iphone box, and lying on top of that was a clear plastic bag, inside that was one micro fiber.
No joke . .it was the most ridiculous packaging to a most ridiculous order. And yep, I lost both those micro fibers as well.
The Micro fiber I didn't loose was the one I gave away. Serves me right. LOL

Clean slate with a new Mac

I am in the process of purchasing a new Mac. My existing Mac is an early 2009 MacBook Pro and contains files dating back prior to OS 9 (maybe even back to OS 6). I wish to start with a clean slate with the new Mac and don’t plan on migrating files from the old computer. However, I would like to bring over my Contacts, Calendar and Mail (Accounts only, no mail history). How would I go about doing that?

Replace any Contacts, Calendar, and Mail folders with those from your old computer. Transfer the folders and also the preference files. These latter are located in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. If your Library folder isn't visible then:
Exposing the /Home/Library/ Folder
Pick one of the following methods:
A. This method will make the folder visible permanently. Open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and paste the following at the command prompt:
chflags nohidden ~/Library
Press RETURN.
B. Click on the Desktop, press the OPTION (⌥) button, select Library from the Finder's Go menu.
C. Select Go To Folder from the Finder's Go menu. Paste the following in the path field:
~/Library
Press the Go button.
The Mail and Calendar folders are in the /Home/Library/ folder while Contacts is in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder, but it is called AddressBook.

How do I share a hard drive with the new iMac to load a disk from macbook pro

How do I share a hard drive with the new iMac to load a disk from macbook pro. I want to install office for Mac from a disk but dont know how to share har drive from macpro
thanks

The new iMac's don' t have DVD drives however almost all have a disk drive. The easiest method of installing MS Office for Mac on your new iMac is to download it from Microsoft and then input the code you received when you purchased your original license. Otherwise you can use the DVD drive on your MBP to install on your iMac, that feature is called Remote Disc. Instructions for Remote Disc can be found at:http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5287

Yes... There are issues with the new iMac, early adopters baby!

Hi, I am a new iMac owner.
Being a network engineer and having worked for the "devil" himself, let me tell you... I would rather be dealing with the tiny glitches with the new iMac than owning a Dell, Toshiba, HP but most importantly running Vista!
This is a new machine with new HW and drivers. I enjoy trying the latest and the greatest. I realize there will be hurdles to overcome with any new product, but come one people! Let's stop whining, and help everyone out here. We are all here to provide constructive feedback to Apple while helping everyone out.
Yes there Display issues.
Yes there are Keyboard issues.
Yes there are WoW issue and UT as well.
Target disk issues.. Yes
Lock ups.. sure!
My suggestion... If you think you are better off with a PC and Vista, well go to it mate!
Sorry for the ramble, but I just got tired of all the whiners thinking that buying an iMac was their solution to never having issues by leaving the PC world, or should I say MSWorld... LOL

I think few, if any people claimed they were going to ditch their new iMac for a PC. I like Macs, but I don't love them like I used to.
Half the reason people buy them, is because they think they can rely on Macs more. They are supposed to be stable, fuss free and easy to use. And they still are for the most part.
But these new iMacs make a complete mockery of that because they don't represent very well what Apple stands for. "If" I bought a PC I would honestly expect some problems here & there. Its just part and parcel of the PC package. And although I don't expect Macs to be 100% perfect 100% of the time, I certainly expect better than this diabolical shambles that is the new iMac.
Just as an example.. My 4 year old G4 powerbook.. Not 100% problem free, granted. But mighty close. However, it has not crashed once the entire time I have had it. My new iMac however, crashed 4 times yesterday alone, and it didn't even get used as much as my old powerbook.
Maybe now you get the picture a little better?
Just my 2 kernel panics worth...

How can I see the old backups of my previous Macbook done by Time machine in a Time capsule with my new iMac?

How can I see the old backups of my previous Macbook done by Time machine in a Time capsule with my new iMac? I've changed from a Macbook to a iMac because that one stopped working and I cannot use it anymore. I've been able to import all the data of the last backup of the Macbook when setting the new iMac, but I cannot access now to the old backups of the Macbook and there are information that wasn't in the last backup and I would like to recover. Thank you very much.

Yes, you can ..

When i take pictures with the new ipad why is there static

when i take a picture with the new ipad why does the picture have noise in it but when i look at pictures online the photos are perfect

Because both cameras have different resolutions. The camera on the back of your Ipad (3rd gen.) is 5 megapixels; while the camera in front (used mainly for Facetime, etc.) is only 0.3 megapixels. Hope this helps.

"Not compatible with MacBook Pro with Retina display or iMac (Late 2012)."
There are some USB IR receivers that allow the Apple Reomote to work with software such as Remote Buddy

Disappointed with the new iMac 2011

I bought a new iMac 21.5 inch 2011 model replacing my plastic iMac. When I first bought it, I was very excited because it got all the top reviews.
Then, my first iMac had 2 dead pixels on the top of the screen, it was very annoying so I got an exchange. The second one have no screen issues, but it has very annoying buzzing sound from the top of the back panel. Then I get the third exchange, and this one still has the annoying buzzing sound from the bottom part of the panel, and a notable dust particles trapped inside the screen encasing. I went to the apple store several times, they are saying they won't do any more exchange, and the buzzing sound is not noticable and it is the part of the nature of iMac.
I am very disappointed with this iMac model, I am wondering if any other users have similar experience with the new iMac.
Thanks for forum administrator keeping this post.

I am like many users who wanted a machine for media development, wow, the Mac has a reputation for being good at that. However, I'm one who has had problems. I have never actually hated a machine before now. I am unable to multi-task, I have no software available for development except for the xcode IDE which changes weekly, rendering all highly expensive books and classes obsolete and useless within a week of purchase.
Also, if you want to multi-task, I'm unable to load multiple tabs or browser windows without this machine halting to a crawl. I've spent at least a total of 20 hours on the phone with idiots who barely speak english to help me out. I've spent at least three full Saturdays at the so-called genius bar in town. I cannot load more than one application at a time and get decent performance. OMG, apple has set me back decades.
Many will say this is probably due to my ISP. NO. I have my trusty HP machine here and I can actually boot it up and load the browser (IE) in the time it takes for an already booted iMac with Safari with a linked clicked before. So the ISP is great. It's the iMac that *****.
One good thing that has come from this peice of sht though. It is a true test of my restraint and tolerance for crap.
I am actually now willing to give up apple development altogether because of the poor performance and lack of decent software for the same.
I am now able to say good riddence APPLE! This is NOT the direction I am headed.
That is all I have to say.

Using my existing HD with the new iMac's USB 3.0

Hi,
I’m planning on buying the new iMac as soon as it comes out but I noticed that it doesn’t have any USB 2.0 ports and I was wondering if I would be able to use my existing external hard drives since they are USB 2.0.
Will I be able to use my existing USB 2.0 HD with the new iMac using the USB 3.0?
Thanks a lot

Yes. USB 3.0 can be used by devices and connections from USB 2.0

I am having trouble making TM work with my new iMac.

I'm having trouble making TM work with my new iMac. I have an external drive, Freeagent GoFlex Drive, that is recognized on the desktop and in the drive utility. Time machine just "spins it's wheels" and doesn't seem to transfer any information. I have run repair disk on both drives and repair permissions. Any ideas how I can make this thing work?

Did you format the HD first. It has to be formatted to Mac OS Extended (Journaled). If you're not sure how to do this please read:
