i have a MacBook Pro I usually use safari as my browser, i have downloaded firefox as well as google chrome. i would like to have my favorites i use for safari also for firefox, how do i do this ? i see they have step by step instructions but only for window users.thank you

Simple, call the 800 number Apple Store and they will provide link to download.
For some reason seems they think someone might mistake or be confused and... buy wrong OS (when they wanted Mountain Lion).
Be sure before running the install, to save the package file to USB flash + DVD and someplace safe so you don't have to redownload and so you can do clean install later if you need to (you can always install to a new alternate drive but most don't realize).
Also makes for a nice way to clean out, start fresh whatever your system has accumulated.
Lion lacks PowerPC code support via Rosetta so keeping a dual boot system of both at least for couple months is good idea too -
Setup Assistant will still import from your old system so it isn't like there is a lot of extra work with a clean install either.

    Do you mean you're already backing-up to a Time Capsule, and want to switch to using an external HD?  If so, just format the drive and select it via Time Machine Preferences > Select Disk.  See #21 in  Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.
    If you mean something else, please clarify.

  • On my Mac Pro how can I get voiceover to start reading at a specific point on a document?, on my Mac Pro how can I get voiceover to start reading at a specific point on a document?

    On my Mac Pro how can I get voiceover to start reading at a specific point in a document, and then continue on to the next paragraph and so on?  Thank you.  Ed

    Welcome to the Apple family!!!! 
    How can I cause the VO cursor(box) show-up/start?
    Press Control-Option and F5.   The F5 key is located on the top row of keys 6th key over.  This is a toggling "Keyboard Shortcut" for turning VoiceOver on and off.
    How can I move the VO cursor to various sentences or paragraphs of an article and have it start reading ... and perhaps even continue reading on to the next paragraph(s) ... even to the end of the article?
    How to read a website with VoiceOver
    Step 1:  Go to the Website
    A quick keyboard shortcut is Command-L.  This will jump you up to the address bar.  Start typing where you want to go.  i.e "www.thewebsite.com"
    Step 2:  Working with Webpage
    VoiceOver will automatically start reading the website.  You can pause the speech by hitting the 'Control Button'. 
    If VoiceOver does not being reading the webpage, then you might have to "Interact" with it.  If VoiceOver say "HTML Content" then press Control-Option-Space-Down Arrow to interact with the webpage.
    Use Control-Option-Right Arrow to move throught the website.  This will speak "EVERYTHING" on the page.
    Most website that I've found have their articles labeled as 'Heading'.  You can jump from heading to heading, by pressing Control-Option-Shift-H.
    If you'd like an itemized alphabetical listing of the site, press Control-Option-I 
    Press Control-Option-Space on the link or article you want to view.
    Step 3.  Reading from Top to Bottom
    Once you found and clicked on the the article/link, use the same 'Heading' command, Control-Option-Shift-H to find the title. 
    After finding the title, press Control-Option-A will start reading from the title on. 
    Note:  If there are any other items (ads, pictures, etc) it will read those too. 
    Tip:  You might be able to activate a feature called the 'Reader'.  The Reader isolates the article and elimanates the ads  The keyboard command is Shift-Command-R.  You can also find it in the Menu Bar (Command-Option-M) under the word 'View' then 'Show Reader'. 
    I am using a MACPro with OSX, probably Mavericks 10.9 (where would I look to see if that is the correct information?)
    You can find this information under the 'Apple menu' in the Menu Bar.  To access the Menu Bar, press Control-Option-M. 
    Go to Apple Menu > About This Mac.  This will open up another window.  Use Control-Option-Right Arrow until you hear 'Version'.  If you purchased it brand new from Apple within the last six month, more than likely you have Mavericks.

    The  'Commands Help' Voiceover Menu. Control-Option-H-H.  (hit H twice)  is my best friend.  It's a searchable VoiceOver Menu with most of the VoiceOver command.  Example:  You are looking for the 'Read Current Paragraph' keyboard command.   Press Control-Option-H-H and then type Paragraph.  It will then bring up all the commands with the word paragraph.  I believe there are three.   
    As from the Trackpad Commands, I've copied and pasted below from Appendix A: Commands and Gestures
    VoiceOver standard gestures
    If you’re using a Multi-Touch trackpad, you can use VoiceOver gestures. VoiceOver provides a set of standard gestures for navigating and interacting with items on the screen. You can’t modify this set of gestures.

    Enable the Trackpad Commander and VoiceOver gestures
    VO-Two-finger rotate clockwise
    Disable the Trackpad Commander and VoiceOver gestures
    VO-Two-finger rotate counterclockwise

    Move the VoiceOver cursor to the previous item
    Flick left
    Move content or the scroll bar (depending on the Trackpad Commander setting)
    Three-finger flick in any direction
    Go to the Dock
    This gesture moves the VoiceOver cursor to the Dock wherever it’s positioned on the screen
    Two-finger double-tap near the bottom of the trackpad
    Go to the menu bar
    Two-finger double-tap near the top of the trackpad
    Open the Application Chooser
    Two-finger double-tap on the left side of the trackpad
    Open the Window Chooser
    Two-finger double-tap on the right side of the trackpad
    Jump to another area of the current application

    Speak the item in the VoiceOver cursor or, if there isn’t an item, play a sound effect to indicate a blank area
    Touch (includes tap or dragging)
    Select an item
    Double-tap anywhere on the trackpad
    You can also split-tap (touch one finger and then tap with a second finger on the trackpad)
    Start interacting with the item in the VoiceOver cursor
    Two-finger flick right
    Stop interacting with the item in the VoiceOver cursor
    Two-finger flick left
    Scroll one page up or down
    Three-finger flick up or down
    Escape (close a menu without making a selection)
    Two-finger scrub back and forth

    Two-finger flick up
    Read from the VoiceOver cursor to the end of the current page
    Two-finger flick down
    Pause or resume speaking
    Two-finger tap
    Describe what’s in the VoiceOver cursor
    Three-finger tap
    Change how VoiceOver reads text (by word, line, sentence, or paragraph)
    Press the Command key while touching a finger on the trackpad
    Rotor
    Change the rotor settings
    Two-finger rotate
    Move to the previous item based on the rotor setting
    Flick up
    Move to the next item based on the rotor setting
    Flick down
    To customize other gestures by assigning VoiceOver commands to them, use the Trackpad Commander.
    Assigning VoiceOver commands to gestures
    If you need a reminder about what a gesture does, press VO-K to start keyboard help, and then use the gesture on the trackpad and listen to the description.

    You can transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    Most other stuff by the third-party programs discussed here:
    Best iPod to PC
    However, your app data such as saved games will be lost unless you have a backup file from your old computer.

  • TS3989 Only some of the photos I have taken on my iPhone appear in the photo stream on my iPad even thou they were taken at the same time. Why is this and how can I import the other photos from my iPhone to my iPad?

    Only some of the photos I have taken on my iPhone appear in the photo stream on my iPad even thou they were taken at the same time. Why is this and how can I import the other photos from my iPhone to my iPad?

    If older photos are missing it may be because photo stream photos are only held in iCloud for 30 days.  After that they are removed from iCloud but will remain (up to 1000 photos) on your device until deleted.  Also, only photos taken after enabling photo stream are added to your photo stream, and only when the camera is closed, your device is connected to wifi and you have at least 20% battery life remaining.
    To transfer the missing photos you can either create a shared photo stream containing them and invite yourself to it (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99), import the photos to your computer and sync them to your iPad, or use an app like PhotoSync to transfer them to your iPad over wifi.

    Possibly. Media Go supports a variety of music formats, some of which can be imported in to iTunes and then synced on to an iPhone, however some of its formats cannot be imported in to iTunes.
    See http://mediago.sony.com/enu/supported-file-formats/ for a list of formats supported by Media Go. iTunes for Windows supports MP3, AAC, WAV, and can import and convert WMA files as well. However iTunes does not support ATRAC, or FLAC.
    Furthermore, if some of your music has been bought from an Internet music store it might be procted by DRM. If so it cannot be imported in to iTunes.
    To do the importing you would either drag the music files in to iTunes, or tell iTunes to open them. See http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1347
