  • I got a new MacBook, and iChat will not open at all.

    About a month ago, I got a new MacBook (the regular one, not Air or Pro). Everything is working fine, except for iChat. It has never opened since purchasing my new computer and it continues not to. When you double click the iChat icon, "iChat" appears in the top bar containing File, Edit, View, etc., but the actual program never pops up. Considering that I have a new computer with little stored on it right now, I do not think that lack of memory space (if that's a proper name for the term) is the problem. I'm not to technical with computers (I know how to do cool stuff on them, but I don't know things like codes, HTML, and those kinds of number things). I am pretty sure, however, that I have a brand-new MacBook with 2008 iLife software and, I think, Leopard. Can someone with more knowledge of computers please help me! Thanks!

    If iChat appears in the menu bar press the cmd/1 keys together to see the buddy list or click on window in the menu bar and click on your buddy list.

    Hello Pork Chop 2,
    Congratulations on your new Mac!  It sounds like your purchased songs are not playing completely after you downloaded them.  I recommend to following steps for an issue like this:
    Symptoms
    Occasionally, if a song purchased from the iTunes Store on a Mac or PC was not downloaded completely, the song may not play back fully. The song may abruptly stop during playback, and iTunes may start playing the next song in your library or playlist.
    Resolution
    If iTunes in the Cloud is available in your country, try the following steps to resolve the issue:
    Delete the purchased song that is exhibiting the problem from your iTunes library.
    Click on the Purchased link in the iTunes Store to view your previously purchased music.
    Download your previously purchased song from this list.
    You can find the full article here:
    Songs in iTunes may not play back completely

    i just got a new mac. and its saying no more than 5 computers can be autherized i only know of 2 others what can i do ?

    There isn't currently a way of seeing a list of which computers are authorised, but have you had other computers in the past and/or upgraded the OS on your computers without first deauthorising them ? Individual computers can only be deauthorised directly on them, but as you have multiple computers authorised then you can log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and 'deauthorise all' (which you can do once every 12 months) and you can then authorise/reauthorise the computers that you still have and need.

    I have auth the new mac & gone thru all the recommended steps.
    The purchases do show under purchase histry in my acc info but not under Purchases in the iStore.
    I did chnge the country setting recently so not sure if there is any issue that the songs/apps were purchased when registered in another country but this really shouldn't make a difference

    What do you mean "not working"?  That could mean multiple different things.
    If help is desired, be as specific as possible.

  • I just got a new mac and my purchase on itunes have not come up

    can't finded my movies i have purchase  !!

    If you are not purchasing from the US iTS then you do not have that option yet.
    You indicate Christchurch - NZ maybe?
    You will need to add the movies from your old Mac - by ext HD, memory stick etc. The iTS is a one time download per the terms of service. iTunes is a stand alone library and not automatically transfered because you open iTunes on a new Mac.
    The Cloud option is new and as far as I know only available to US iTS users. If it is available, it is located in the 'Quick Links' area under 'Purchases' located on the main iTS page.

  • Got a new mac and now im screwed, unless someone has a solution

    Ok so basically i bought a new mac book pro, love it but i have one REALLY big issue... I have an iPhone and i cant sync up anything from my iphone to the new mac. I have a ton of pictures that arnt in the main folder, and all my apps... i want to get the new iphone software, but i dont want to loose everything... Is there any way to transfer anything to itunes on my new computer? I allready have all the music but i dont know how to transfer anything else. TIA!!

    The best way is to transfer stuff from your old computer to your new computer, via flash drive or something. The phone is not a backup.
    However, if for some reason you can't access your old computer, there are third-party programs that will pull photos off the phone. Once on your new laptop, you can import them into iPhoto. This is not supported by Apple--use at your own risk, and be aware that the photos will be the low-resolution downsized copies created by iTunes when you synced them to the phone.
    Google TouchCopy and PhoneView.

  • HT4463 I got a new mac and can't download apps I previously purchased

    I bought a couple lessons in GarageBand and some apps in the AppStore, but now that I have a new MacBook, I am unable to get these apps on the new machine apparently without buying the apps again(!)
    This is frustrating. I know the old machine was wiped clean and I'm not interested in paying another several hundred dollars for software I already bought.
    Any ideas?

    Hi chivas3,
    Access your Purchased Apps as follows:
    1. Click on the iTunes Store, then click on the Apps tab at the top
    2. Now click on "Purchased" under the Quick Links menu on the right
    3. This will then go to a screen that displays your purchased Apps (you can then click on All or Not on This Computer at the top)
    4. You will see a cloud below each App that can be downloaded. You can download them selectively, or by clicking on Download All at the bottom of the screen
    Cheers,

  • I have a brand new Mac and it did not come with iDVD. What gives?

    Is iDVD supposed to come on new equipment? It's not on the app store and iMovie tells me I need it in order to burn a DVD.

    If you are still within your 15 day return period.  Call Apple they will sent out iDVD at no charge.  (There are no realistic substitutes.)
    Nicely explain that you may return the computer without iDVD. That usually does the trick.  You MUST speak to a senior advisor to get a free copy. The first tier people cannot do it.
    408-996-1010
    800-692-7753
    If that doesn't work you can purchase iLife 11 (or iLife 09)  (includes iDVD) on disk.
    IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.
