Without a disc, I'd create a new administrator id and delete the old id.  Erase any folders you might have created outside your home folder.  Use disk utility to erase free space.  One pass should be good enough for a home computer.

  • I have an older Mac and can't update osx. Is there any way to move the music in iTunes to my newer apple devices?

    I can't upgrade Osx 4 and would like to move music and photos to newer Apple devices. Is there any way to accomplish this?

  • I have an older mac and it wants me to update to itunes 10 but my mac is too old and I cant figure out how to disable the update

    I have an older mac and it wants me to update to itunes 10 but my mac is too old and I cant figure out how to disable the update so I can use the store.

    If Software Update is offering the update then it would be compatible with your model.  Unfortunately, you haven't provided us with any information on your hardware that would enable us to determine if it really is too old.
    If you really wish to disable the update alert then the next time Software Update opens, select the update in the list then select "Ignore update" from SU's Update menu.

  • HT201272 I want to download a previously purchased album that had an "error" and isn't complete. I have an older Mac and don't have iCloud. Surely there is some way to get the music I paid for!

  • Hello All, I have an older MAC and currently have iPhoto 09, version 8.1.2. Every time iPhoto is opened I get a message about a upgrade to a newer version of iPhoto, but when I select the link, it takes me to the Apple website and says the page I'm look

    Hello All,
    I'm Gene. I have an older MAC desktop and am running iPhoto 09, version8.1.2 (424). Each time I connect my iphone to my MAC I get a message that there is a newer version of iPhoto, but when I select the link, I am taken to the Apple webpage and get a message that the page I'm looking for is not available. All I would like to do is upgrade my iPhoto. Do I need to upgrade to the latest version of iWork, and if so, what version and how would I do that? Any assistance is appreciated. Thanks

    The iPhoto version that is currently available at the App Store os 9.5.1 and requires the Mavericks OS X.  The early 2008 24" iMac can run Mavericks.  Once you have Mavericks installed (it's free)  you can purchase iPhoto 9.5.1 from the App Store.
    If you don't want to upgrade to Mavericks you can purchase a copy of the iLife 11 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com and install iPhoto 9.  Then up trade it to 9.4.3 via the updaters at the  Apple Downloads website: Apple - Support - Search

  • I have an older macbook and need to run windows on it.

    (1) Is it enough to just get parallel 7, windows 7, and MS Office (PC Version); and (2) does the parallel 7 support the NTSF file structure?  I need to have access to a bunch of files that are currently on a PC.  Thanks.

    Thanks.  Maybe my version is 10.0.1 (not sure, but I loaded Snow Leopard on my wife's computer a few months ago and everything works fine).  One other question:  Do I need to image her hard drive before loading parallels on it?  Reformat?  Just don't want to lose all of her pictures and stuff.  I'm leaning toward leaving well-enough alone and getting a cheap i5 core laptop with windows 7 and loading my older copy of office 2007 on it.  Thanks for the reply--it really helped.

  • I have an older iMac and need to wipe it. I haven't any discs for it. It is OS 10.6.8. What can I do?

    Without a disc, I'd create a new administrator id and delete the old id.  Erase any folders you might have created outside your home folder.  Use disk utility to erase free space.  One pass should be good enough for a home computer.

  • I downloaded itunes, but it says I have an audio problem and can't play the game I purchased, any ideas?

    I downloaded itunes on my pc, but it says I have an audio problem and won't let me play the game I purchased, any ideas?

    Why do you assume that this problem is a "bug" that Apple has to address, and not a problem with your phone, that you need to address.  Do you see others having this specific problem?
    Try:
    1. Reset phone (no data loss): press both the home and power buttons for at least 10 seconds, releasing when the Apple logo appears
    2. Install using iTunes on your computer/

  • I have an older mac and so have not got icloud

    My question is if I move to iCloud as prompted by mobileme every other day, what do I lose apart from idisk, gallery and iweb?  I know I should probably upgrade to Lion, but still on Leopard and just don't have the time to backup, get new os'es and do installations.  I have iPad and iPhone and would like to make the move, but not sure if I need to upgrade my macbook first (or will I just not have file syncing)?
    Also will itunes match still work on the macbook withour iCloud on the macbook?
    Thanks for any input
    Jono 

    You have posted in the iTunes Match forum. You will get better help by posting in the appropriate Notebooks forums.
    But, in short, you can't use iCloud with Leopard. The minimum requirement for using iCloud is OS X 10.7.2 Lion. The minimum requirements are on this page. You can also read about the iCloud features on the product page.

  • I was given a mac with Photoshop and dream weaver on years ago. I have a new mac and need those program's on my new mac. Is this possible?

    .

    Actually the question
    Can I transfer from old mac to new mac?
    may be meant in a narrower sense than I had interpreted it.
    If you mean whether you can just copy the applications from the old HD to the new one that would probably be useless even if the programs would technically harmonise with the new OS.

  • HT2646 I have everything connected properly and my tv still says no signal. Any ideas?

    I have my apple tv 2nd gen. connected to my power source, and connected to my tv using a HDMI cord, and its not working. I turn on my tv, then go to the proper input (HDMI3), and it says no signal, ive tried everything. Help, please...

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Check that the HDMI cable is correctly seated at both ends.
    Try disconnecting the cable and connecting it again.
    Try another HDMI cable.
    Make sure your TV supports 720p (Apple TV 2)
    Try the Apple TV with another TV

  • The screen of my photoshop elements 12 moved too far up in my mac and i cannot bring it down... any ideas? I cannot access the first ⅓ of the screen...

    I need help. My PE had been working properly and now I cannot access the top ⅓ of the screen. How can I fix this?

    Quit the organizer and then go to your username>library>Application Support>Adobe>Elements Organizer>12.0>Organizer  and delete status.dat. That library is hidden. To see it, click the Go menu in the Finder and hold down the Option key and it will appear below the little house for your user account.

  • I have 500gb of music and itunes separates album tracks into individual albums any ideas how to fix?

    please help!!

    please help!!
    That's normally not a helpful information.
    But, as your problem is well known ...
    The way iTunes groups files (songs) into a Album depends on the entry in "Album" if "Sort by Album Name" is checked.
    All songs from an Album should have the same entry in the "Album" and "Album Artist" field.
    To regroup the albums choose all songs from the album at once (cmd+click) right click -> get Info -> and put the appropriate info in the two fields.
    If you sort your Albums by other information e.g. composer, the songs get grouped by this feature.

  • HT4356 I have a iPad 2 and want to print of a invoice can I print from my iPad 2 on my hp photos art 3110 all in one

    I have a iPad 2 and need to print of a invoice can I print on my hp photos art 3110 all in one if so how do I go about it please

    your printer doesn't appear in the compatible Airprint printers listed in this basic article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    There might be an app HP has to help you out, but there's no Apple supported way, as it's not an Airprint printer.
    Anyways, hope this helps
    Good luck
