I have iPad2 and iMac. What is recommended virus detection/protection software to download?

What is the best recommended virus detection/protection software for iMac???

You don't need any anti-virus software. See:
Helpful Links Regarding Flashback Trojan and Virus Protection
An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
A link to a great User Tip about the trojan: Flashback Trojan User Tip.
To check for the trojan: Anti Flashback Trojan 2.0.4.
A Google search can reveal a variety of alternatives on how the remove the trojan should your computer get infected. This can get you started. Or the preferred method is to use Apple's protection tool: Flashback Malware Removal Tool 1.0.
Or, open Software Update. If you do not have the Apple protection software installed it will download and install it via Software Update. If no update appears that means you either already have it installed or it isn't needed for your system. The software is only available for Leopard, Snow Leopard, and Lion versions of OS X.
Also see Apple's article About Flashback malware.
For general anti-virus protection I only recommend using ClamXav.

No Mirroring in Ipad 2? I have IPAD2 and Apple Tv 4.3. I can airplay videos/music from Ipad2 to my HDTV via ATV, but I cant mirror it. When I select airplay to switch from Ipad2 to Apple TV, Mirroring does not show as an option. What am I missing?

On your Mac, launch FaceTime and then go to the menubar for FaceTime->Preferences.
Within Preferences for FaceTime, look for the entries under "You can be reached for calls at:" and click on "Add Another Email..."
Add another email address.
The iPad can now be used to "call" the Mac by trying to start a FaceTime connection to the alternate email address you just entered. The Mac can be used to call the iPad by trying to start a FaceTime connection to the primary email address associated with the iPad.

No, it doesn't. So far they only have support for Snow Leopard.

Do Macbook Pros need antivirus protection? if so, what is the best antivirus protection software?

Mac OS X versions 10.6.7 and later have built-in detection of known Mac malware in downloaded files. The recognition database is automatically updated once a day; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders. In most cases, there’s no benefit from any other automated protection against malware.
The most effective defense against malware is your own intelligence. All known Mac malware takes the form of trojans that can only operate if the victim is duped into running them. If you're smarter than the malware attacker thinks you are, you won't be duped. That means, primarily, that you never install software from an untrustworthy source. How do you know a source is untrustworthy?
Any website that prompts you to install software, such as a “codec” or “plug-in,” that comes from that same site, or an unknown site, is untrustworthy.
A web operator who tells you that you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, or that you have won a prize in a contest you never entered, is trying to commit a crime with you as the victim.
“Cracked” versions of commercial software downloaded from a bittorrent are likely to be infected.
Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash, must be downloaded directly from the developer’s website. No intermediary is acceptable.
Follow these guidelines, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can reasonably be.
Never install any commercial "anti-virus" products for the Mac, as they all do more harm than good. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use ClamXav -- nothing else.

I have a desktop iMac,within a yr old, I had iPhoto 9,downloaded to iPhoto 11, now lost my export to Shutterfly link, & looks like all my photos went to thumbnails, with poor resolution...help!!

I have a desktop iMac OSX 10.6.8, had iPhoto 9 & downloading software update to iPhoto 11, (9.1.5??) I can't find the way to reset up the "Export to Shutterfly mode" and it looks like all my previous photos went to a thumbnail size...with now poor resolution. If I would have know my pictures were going to turn into poor quality pictures, I never would have done the software update. Need a real person to talk to. This complicated method is not user friendly.

I strongly recommend that you remove your contact information, especially your phone number, from this public forum.

I have 6mins and 25 seconds of The Jane Austen Club left to download from iTunes and it won't download - I've watched it all up until then. Why is it stuck!

Please help. I want to finish watching it. I only have a little bit left to watch.
I have ADSL and I have 50 GB so heaps of space.

Delete the references to them from the iTunes library and then either redownload them from the iTunes Store or use the Transfer Purchases function.

Can anyone recommend good html protection software

Hi all
Does anyone know of a good html protection program or
extension?
I need to stop text & images being copied off my web site
by disabling copy & save as from the right click menus, disable
screen grabs, disable selecting blocks of text etc.
I've seen a few bits of software online but don't recognise
any of the companies so am a bit unsure of handing over my credit
card details. Does anyone use one they can recommend?
Also, are there any implications to using the software in
terms of search engines reading the text, or anything else
negative?
Many thanks.
Dave

Thanks everyone who replied.
In general terms, my question was 'without detrimental effect
to a search engines ability to read my pages, and without
introducing any browser incompatibility/accessibility issues, can I
stop or make it harder for the text/content to be copied', and is
there a software program I can use to do this?
This is partly a coding question, but also a wider issue that
I'm sure will affect many online businesses and I've not seen much
useful coverage on the subject. I know this might not be the right
place to ask this question, but does anyone have any experience of
deterring copying through legal action or other non coding related
measures?
To answer the question about why people copy our content
We promote a certain product/service range (I don't really
want to say who exactly we are), most of which isn't unique, and
can be found on other competitors web sites. (A similar example
would be if you looked at the descriptions used of products on
musical equipment retail web sites. The descriptions all come from
the manufactures, so what ever web site you go on, the description
is the same.)
What we've done within our industry is to expand on &
improve the information we’re sent by our suppliers, to help
us sell the products better, and to help customers get to the
important information quicker.
We're leaders in what we do and I pay a team of copy writers
to ensure the content we are sent from our suppliers is re-written
to a high standard, focusing upon the needs of our customers. We
have spent considerable time and money researching how user
friendly the delivery of product details are on our web site, and
it's one of the things that sets us apart. The investment of time
and money into this obviously costs us money, but it also gives us
the competitive advantage.
Many aspects of our web site design, layout, content, even
keywords, are copied by our competitors. Usually the other web
sites look different enough to not be classed as ‘passing
off’ as us, but all the same, important layout features are
obvious copies. However, what I find most worrying is that some of
our competitors are now copying product/service reviews from our
web site which have been provided to us by our own clients. They
are posting the reviews with our company name removed and using
them on the same product pages on their own web sites.
Because the reviews relate 80% to the products, they
obviously feel they are doing nothing wrong, but often the reviews
also relate to the customer service we have offered, and this then
creates the impression that they offered the same level of service
as us, which we know not to be true. In turn, if our customers shop
around, the impact of our positive reviews are diluted by the fact
that the same reviews show up elsewhere, and the customer looses
faith that the review is genuine, or that it was us who provided
the excellent service.
I’m sure you’ve got the point now anyway!
Because the content is 'similar' to what the product
suppliers send out to everyone, it's difficult to take an action
over the copying as it’s not always 100% blatant.
Because the copying relates to over 1000 product/services, I
don’t think searching for unique text strings as Alan
suggests below would be viable.
It seems that the consensus is that it’s not really
possible to stop copying?
One of the websites I was unsure about paying money to was
www.antssoft.com/htmlprotector/index.htm
They claim that they can stop anyone from copying your web
site content to their PC clipboard, stop print screen, disable
right click copy menu option, and a lot more. They also claim to
NOT effect search engine intelligibility.
However, they are based in china, not affiliated with anyone
I’ve heard of, and I don’t want to risk getting ripped
off or compromising my web site.
If anyone else can contribute to this or who knows of an easy
way to code a page to make copying much harder (even if not 100%
effective) and without introducing any negatives, please add to
this discussion.
Many thanks.

HT201304 What is a good parental protection software

Gave kids my old Iphone 4 and Ipod touch, need parental protection software that will go across all media and these devices as well as our computer. I want to limit website use to just specific websites and of course limit contents found in internet searches by rating. Also limit download of apps

I have iPad2 and original iPad. After upgrade to iOS5 neither will connect to wifi network. Network is working as I have connectivity with iPhone and Mac Airbook. What's the problem?

I have downloaded iOS 5 to both iPad 2 and original iPad. I cannot get wifi to work on either. It's not my wifi as I have connectivity with other devices, just not with the iPad. Any ideas?

I'm having the same problem. The iPad has never roamed particularly well between access points, but under IOS6 it doesn't seem to roam at all, it simply sticks with the access point it first connected with.
I don't have a solution for you, unfortunately.

How can I sync bookmarks from my iPad BACK to ie6? My laptop had a rebuild and I lost all of my ie6 favourites, but they ar still on my iPad as bookmarks - just can figure out how to transfer back. I have ipad2 and ios5

My laptop running ms and outlook had to be re-loaded and as a result I lost all of my Internet explorer favourites. As I run iTunes on my laptop I do have all of th favourites synced through iTunes to my ipad2. How can I reverse synch my ipad2 so that the bookmarks are transferred back to my outlook pc

Follow the instructions here > Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices
Make sure you select, "Bookmarks" in the iCloud window.
"Outlook 2007 or 2010 is required for accessing iCloud email, contacts, and calendars. Safari 5.1.1 or Internet Explorer 8 or later is required for accessing bookmarks."

Have Macbook and Imac. Can I download one purchase of Lion to Both ?

If I purchase and download Lion for my IMac can I also download at the one price to my Macbook?

And to be REALLY technical, this is true of all App Store purchases, not just Lion. You can download & install App Store purchases on all relevant, personally-owned, Apple devices registered with your Apple ID.
I believe your Apple Id can have 5 Macs and 10 iDevices. I have 5 macs and 6 idevices, so I can tell you the limits are at least that good. The wierdness is if you buy a mac with Lion or Lion Server pre-installed. Your other macs don't benefit from the pre-installed licenses.
To further confuse matters, iLife does NOT come pre-installed. You open App Store on your new Mac, and App Store offers you the download. From that point, those apps ARE available in your "purchased" screen, and will download everywhere.

I have ipad2 and would like to use skype, help plz

I have downloaded the app for skype, I have my contacts on my list as soon as I signed in when I first set it up, but it never shows anyone online, have gone to my imac and there are people from my contact list that are online, but doesn't show online on the ipad. Hope someone can suggest something. Thank you

Senmorts-
I had to sign in the first time I ran it, but it remembers my log in data since then.
Does the "Skype test call" icon show as on line? When I run Skype, that is the first one to show a connection. My other contacts usually show up a little later, maybe a few seconds or a minute.

I have ipad2 and would like to know how to move pictures in a designated album to creat a slideshow

I am having trouble making a slideshow within a designated album as I would like to move the pictures into a certain order.

You can't change the order of the photos in an album in the photos app once the album has been created. You would have to add the photos to an album in the order in which you want them to appear in the slideshow. Create another album and add the photos to the new album in the proper order that you want to use,

Once in the Mail app and have opened and email, what do the icons mean?

I am able to open an email on my iPod touch but I do not know what the 5 icons at the bottom of the screen do. I know one is to reply, and one is to create a new message but that's it. Can anybody help me? Especially about the middle icon which looks like a box with an arrow on top.

Hello GenevaMorley,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
Perhaps you should take a look at the Chapter on Mail from your iPod's *User Guide*. It should be able to answer questions such as these.
