I have a 24 In iMac 7,1. I want to update my software to Mountain Lion, but I do not have enough RAM to do so. Can you walk me through steps to upgrade my memory. I am new to this and would like to add at least 6 GB of memory in preparation for new update
I would like to do this, but I just want you to know that I am not an expert so some things I would like you to be clear on.
Please watch this movie for instructions:

I just got a new iPhone 4S . I would like to change my ringtone to an Alan Jackson song . I already download i Tunes . but i don't know how to do it . i'm very new to this and would like to know if someone can help me with this ? Thanks
Your past purchases are not on the computer. By choosing download all, those purchases will download to the computer.
Once authorized to your iTunes account you can control the computer.
When syncing the iPad the first time you will get the warning " this iPad is synced with another computer, syncing will erase all contents and replace with the contents of this computer"
Say yes, this is what you wan to do. -
I have a 10.6.8 OS and want to upgrade to Mountain Lion but when I try the applications tells me my computer can't support it. What does that mean. I have upgraded to Snow Leopard and was told (by Mac Store) that after that I would be able to update to Mountain Lion.
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You need 10.6.8 to upgrade to Mountain Lion, but it doesn't mean that your computer is compatible. Mountain Lion is compatible with Late 2008 Aluminum or Early 2009 MacBooks. If you have an older one, you can't upgrade to Mountain Lion. Read > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs
If you can't upgrade to Mountain Lion, open > About this Mac, and tell me what processor and memory you have got. If you have a Intel Core 2 Duo or newer processor, you can upgrade to Lion. Call Apple to purchase Lion > http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 Make a backup of your files before upgrading and check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com -
How to burn an iMovie to DVD without losing quality? I have iMovie 10.0.5 and iMac 10.9.4 mountain lion. I do not have iDVD. After iMovie goes through the encoding process, quality is horrible. How can I fix this problem? I have tried the apps BURN and DVD Creator for MAC. I need to finish this DVD asap and becoming more and more frustrated. Why would Apple give us iMovie and not provide us an app to burn it to a DVD and / or take away the iDVD?
Alicia McGinnisWhy is there no iDVD on my new Mac? How do I get it and how do I install it?
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3673
To burn a DVD with iDVD from the latest version of iMovie, you have to export the movie using the Export button and select 480p as the size. Open iDVD and start a new project, then drag that exported movie file into the iDVD menu window, avoiding any drop zones you see. -
Hi I recently purchased a new mac computer and would like to sync the music off my iPhone to my new mac.However, my phone and my new mac have different apple Ids.The PC which my phone is synced and has the same apple ID but does not let me transfer the music. Home sharing is not working. How do I successfully transfer and sync the music off my ipone 4 to my mac book pro if they have different Apple IDs? Thanks!
What do you mean the PC won't let you transfer the music? Save your entire iTunes folder (this is assuming that you have all your music stored in your iTunes folder) to an external hard drive. Connect that hard drive to your Mac. Copy the iTunes folder to your computer. Hold down the option key while launching iTunes on your Mac. Select the library you just copied when it ask you to select which library you want to open.

I have a new email address and would like to change it in itunes. Can I edit my account with the new address or do I have to create a new account? Will this cause any problems with music/apps that I have already purchased?

I have a mac with a 10.6.8 opperating system and I tired downloading mountain lion, but it will not let me. How do I get my mac to allow me to? I'm pretty sure you have to have 10.7, but I dont know how to download that either
Does your MacBook meet the minimum requirements for Mountain Lion?
Your Mac must be one of the following models:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009) -
I just purchased a new mac mini and would like to use my old dell monitor. I tried a HD to VGA adapter converter,it plugs in, but nothing shows on the monitor. Any suggestions?
What do you mean by "HD to VGA adapter converter"?
Do you mean have an HDMI to VGA adapter connected the the Mini's HDMI port?
Or maybe you plugged n the the included HDMI to DVI adapter and then connected a DVI to DVI adapter?
In either case that will not work since VGA is analog and the Mini's HDMI port is digital only.
You need to purchase a mini displayport to VGA adapter. It plugs into the Mini's Thunderbolt port.

Make sure you get a name--brand one. I purchased some el cheapo, no-name ones and they did not work -
Hi I am a new iPad user and would like to know how to ensure I am using wifi instead of my network provider. At the top of my screen it is showing my providers name and a signal strength. I have a router at home that I want it to use. I will also be traveling to Italy tomorrow and want to ensure it automatically hooks up to the wifi where we will be staying. Any help would be much appreciated.
I copied this from another thread. I made the important line bold. Make sure that WiFi is turned on if you want to use WiFi first.
After successfully connecting to a wireless network, the network and network settings are saved on your iPad. If wi-fi access is on, when returning within range of a wireless network you have successfully connected your iPad with, your iPad will automatically connect to the wireless network, or it should. If 3G access is on, when leaving the range of an available wi-fi network you have access to, it will switch to AT&T's cellular network automatically. If both are on, your iPad should switch between the two automatically and seamlessly. Your iPad will always connect to the fastest wireless connection available at the time as long both options are enabled. Between an available wi-fi network that you have access to and are in range of and AT&T's cellular network, it will or should be the wi-fi network.
Here is the thread.

I have downloaded MAMP for Mac and want to use it for working with Wordpress. I'm on an Imac with Maverick OS 10.9. I had mysql installed before this and would like to uninstall it and use MAMP. It was easy to turn off Apache and PHP but don't know how to uninstall mysql. Please help!!
It depends on how you installed it. You have to shutdown the MySQL service first. If you used the standard, but obsolete Startup Item, you can do that with the Startup Item. If you created a launchd script, you can do it with launchctl. Once MySQL is no longer running, you can delete the Startup Item or launchd script and the rest of MySQL.

6103-Help! can someone walk me through steps to ac...
Hi- I was dogsitting and the dog chewed on my 6103. He broke the screen but otherwise the phone seems to be working fine... However I cannot see the screen/menu in order to turn Bluetooth ON so that I can get my phone numbers and pictures of my dog (who passed away in Feb. I kid you not)
If someone has this phone, can you "walk" me through the steps-- in other words if you write down which buttons to push in what order I can turn on bluetooth (My phone is already paired with my Mac so I should have no problem once the Bluetooth is on)
Just write out steps like;
- hit middle button
- hit left arrow twice
- hit the top left blue button
etc
I would so so so so so so appreciate it!!!
Thank you!Sorry you have to wait so long for your answer, but this is the Nokia forums, and if it is not for me, then no one answers any questions.

4 (settings)
7 (connectivity)
