I have a generation 1 Appletv with the hard drive. I have just bought a new mac, but cant seem, to sync photos back to appletv hard drive anymore, i know the Imac is syncing with it because i purchased a movie from Apple TV and it loaded it reg on iMac

Can anyone help me with a generation1 appletv compatability with new Imac question?

Hi louchad,
The article below should help you sync the photos from your iMac to your Apple TV:
Apple TV (1st generation): Syncing photos via iTunes
The article explains this in more detail with screen shots, but the key points are summarized below for you:
To sync photos from a Mac or Windows PC to Apple TV (1st generation) using photo applications
Make sure you have iTunes 9.0.2 or later.
In iTunes, select the Apple TV icon in the Devices list.
Click the Photos tab.
Select "Sync photos from: ..."
On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
Note: Some versions of Photoshop Album and Photoshop Elements don't support collections. You can still use them to sync all your photos.
If you want to sync all your photos, select "All photos, albums, events, and faces." If you want to sync photos from only some albums, events, faces, or collections, choose "Selected albums, events, and faces…" and select the albums or collections you want.
To sync photos from a folder on your hard disk to Apple TV (1st generation)
Drag the images you want into a folder on your computer. If you want images to appear in separate photo albums on Apple TV (1st generation), create folders inside the main image folder, and drag images into the new folders.
In iTunes, select the Apple TV icon in the Devices list.
Choose "Sync photos from: ..."
Select "Choose Folder" from the pop-up menu and select your image folder.
I hope this information helps ...
- Judy

Why do I only have v3.0.4 (104.7) of GarageBand if I just bought a new Mac?

Am I dense, or did I miss something? In December of last year, I bought a new 27" iMac 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo w/4GB RAM, and it came with what I thought was the newest version of iLife. Obviously, it didn't, as my version of Garageband is v3.0.4 (104.7), while I see GarageBand v5.1 (or GargeBand '09) is, quite obviously, considerably newer than my v3.0.4, which was apparently created in 2006. In addition, iPhoto, iMovie, and iWeb are all now '09, while MY installed versions are iPhoto v8.1.2, iMovie v8.0.6, and iWeb v3.0.1. I've installed every update "Software Update" has informed me of, except updates for stuff like iPhone, which I don't use.
I'm sorry if I sound stupid, but why did I get what suggests itself as a "bait-and-switch" version of iLife with a brand new -- and hardly inexpensive -- computer? Yeah, I know: "Think Different. Pay more." It's been that way for 20+ years, but this seems a bit thick, even for Apple. Why do I now have to pay $80 to udpdate apps that were written 4 years ago?
Someone, please clue me in here. I feel as though I missed out on some big secret.

I don't know what it is -- sometimes I think I got handed a substandard brain in this incarnation. I know I installed the bundled applications (from the "Everything Else" package) when I first got the iMac home and set it up, but then I immediately used Migration Assistant to move all my apps and docs from my PBG4, and all I can think of is that the new iLife Stuff got replaced by iLife '06 components. I just now reinstalled the bundled apps, and I now have what I believe to be the completely up-to-date set of iLife and iTunes:
iPhoto 8.1.2
GarageBand 5.1
iDVD 7.0.4
iMovie 8.0.6
iWeb 3.0.1
iTunes 9.2
Thanks for the tip, without which I most likely would have, in my boneheaded way, bought a new copy of iLife '09. I amaze myself constantly... and not in a GOOD way.
Thanks again!

They say the first step is recognizing you have the problem...

When trying to download Mavericks it says it cannot be loaded onto this machine? Strange as I have just downloaded Pages, Numbers and Keynote...free? Thanks and Regards

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You already have got OS X Mavericks installed (the Keynote, Pages and Numbers versions available in the Mac App Store are only compatible with OS X Mavericks).
You have got a Late 2013 MacBook Pro, which uses a special OS X Mavericks version that is not available in the Mac App Store. This is the reason why the Mac App Store is not compatible with OS X Mavericks even if you are using it. This will be fixed in OS X 10.9.1, when your Mac uses the same Mavericks version as all other Macs.
Until then, you can reinstall OS X through OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

I just bought a new Mac and I want to transfer some data (not all) from my old Mac. Basically, I want to move my itunes library, iphoto library, and a few documents. I have not even turned on my new Mac yet. Is the best way by an external hard drive?

If both have Firewire ports then you can accomplish your goal by using Target Disk Mode. If this is not possible then you can do using an external drive or if you have a local network connect both to your network and use filesharing between the two computers.

Bluetooth: How to set up your Apple Wireless Keyboard

Just bought a new mac mini, wireless keyboard, and track pad. My track pad will not synch. All advise I have been given is to change items in the setting menu, but I cant because I still have to get through the setup!!

Just bought a new mac mini, wireless keyboard, and track pad. My track pad will not synch. All advise I have been given is to change items in the setting menu, but I cant because I still have to get through the setup!!

The power button for the Trackpad is on the right hand end of the battery case. Press that button to initiate the pairing process. On the top of the Trackpad just above the power button is a tiny green light (you probably cannot see it unless it is lighted). That light will indicate ehther or not the Trackpad is discoverable. If the Trackpad has discoverable the green light will blink on and off. If it does not pair within 3 minutes you will have to press the power button again to re-initiate the pairing process. Once your Trackpad has paired, you can just leave it on and it will pair automatically when you reboot your Mac.
If you are having problems pairing, try turning off any other Bluetooth devices within 30 or so feet of your Mac mini. That includes other Computers, iPhones, iPads, etc. that may be in the area. Once your Trackpad has pairedwith your mini, you don't have to be concerned about other Bluetooth devices.
One other hint, I find that although the Wireless Trackpad does not eat batteries as fast as the Magic Mouse it still uses more than the Wireless Keyboard. It is a good idea to keep a supply of AA batteries around. I have used Apple's Rechargable batteries, but found they did not last that long before needing to be recharged. I have had the best battery life from Duracell Quantum batteries.

I have aperture 3.2.4 on my laptop and have the serial number, but just bought a new MAC and I can't get the Ver 3.0 link to work. Anyone know how to move it from my laptop to our new mac?

I am talking about the Ver 3 download link that came with the purchase email.
That link is no longer available. Use "Migration Assistant" to copy your Applications from your old mac to the new Mac, then immediately run software update. Aperture Version 3.2 will not run on your new mac with Mavericks, you will have to Upgrade to version 3.4.5 at least - you can download this update from the Support page: Aperture 3.4.5
Then launch Aperture and enter your registration key and try now too update from version 3.4.5 to 3.5 from the AppStore. The AppStore will change your Aperture registration to an AppStore version, so you will able to reinstall by downloading from the AppSTore in future.
If you want transfer only Aperture and no other applications, do it manually: You will have to copy not only the application but folders from the libraries as well:
/Applications/Aperture.app
/Library/Application Support/Aperture/
~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/

I just bought a new mac and need to clear the memory of my old one but i don't have a startup disk. how do i do this?

I just bought a new mac book pro and need to clear my old mac of it's contents to give it away--- I do not have my startup disk anymore. How can i completely delete my old mac's memory?

Erasing your drive:
Dragging the files to the Trash removes the references to them from the Directory. As has always been the tradition, the data blocks that held the actual data are not over-written, they are merely added to the free list for later re-use. Their original contents are still present.
Disk Utility "Erase" or "Partition" of a drive (which finishes in under a minute) also does not over-write the data blocks, but merely creates a new, empty directory.
To clear the data that may still be present (admittedly in a disorganized mess of unlinked blocks) you need to overwrite the data. Use the erase tab, then choose "Security Erase" Options, and overwrite once with Zeroes. This process can take several hours as it is -- if you insist on multiple passes, it can take days to complete, with little additional protection. Multiple passes is unnecessary unless your drive held Military Secrets.
When you have erased, be sure to install some version of Mac OS X -- a Mac with no obvious Operating software may be dead, and is much more likely to quickly become landfill.

I've just bought a new mac and I want to transfer the content from my old Macbook to my new. If I have iCloud enabled on both devices, is this simple, or is there a limit to what I can transfer? For example, can I upload word files to iCloud?

iCloud is not the way to do this. You should use Migration Assistant - with this you can transfer your complete User folder from the old Mac including preferences and logins. You will need to connect the two with FireWire or USB depending on the models.
Ideally you should do this before you set up the new Mac - if you create a user account with the same name than the Migration will have to give the migrated user folder a different name. When you first switch on the new Mac it should ask you if you want to transfer your data, and give you instructions.

I have purchased MOVIES from Apple iTunes and want to know how I can burn them to my DVD so I can watch/view the movies on my TV's located in my house?

So what is meant here is spend more money - wrong answer.
For that reason most people prefer to buy movies on DVD. They are easily shared, foolproof, and super easy to use. I love Apple TV and iTunes for music and TV shows, but I would never purchase a movie that was not on an optical disc.
When I head out-of-town I can grab a couple of DVDs to watch on my new MacBook Pro during the flight. Easy and uncomplicated.
DVDs offer another advantage. You can watch your movie without depending upon a complicated and delicate infrastructure. Also, movies are frequently censored for political correctness (Star Wars is a recent example). Despite public pressure for a release, the Disney movie “Song of the South” remains banned. Even cartoons like Johnny Quest are now censored. Only people who purchased physical copies years ago have them as they were originally produced.
When you possess a physical copy of the movie the PC patrol can't mess with it.

I have just bought a new mac book, and I want to start from scratch by syncing the content of my iPhone, but each time I try it wants to delete everything on the iPhone and replace by what on the new iTunes library, i.e. nothing! can I do the reverse?

You need to copy some files and your iTunes folder to the new computer. Do you have a backup of your old computer (or still have the old computer?) Was the old computer a Mac or PC?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
First you should try logging out of your iTunes Store account (settings > iTunes Store > accounts) and then back in again.
If that doesn't help, try resetting the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings). You should also try restarting your router.
If both of the above don't help, you should try a restore (Settings > General > Reset > Restore).
