I have just bought an imac and I am having problem with my camera. The image is kind of distorted and coloured lines everywhere. I have updated softwares and applications and restarted the computer but it didn't help. What to do?
what to do?
shauney,
From your description of the problem, it sounds like you have a hardware/camera defect. My recommendation is to return your imac to where-ever you bought it, and have them deal with, or replace your computer with one that functions as it is supposed to. You should not have to suffer with this situation on a new computer, although it does sometimes happen.

I have just bought the iPad Air but cannot access the roots I have on my iCloud account. They do appear on my old ipad 2, any ideas how I can access them please
Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,

I have bought a photoshop elements and have installed it on my MacBookPro. I have just bought an iMac and what to install on this computer as well. The iMac does not have a disc drive. I have copied the file onto a remote hard drive and tried to install but it thinks I have a pirate copy. What can I do?
If you click the link in my first post in this thread, then click "still need help? Contact us" it takes you to a page that looks exactly like the page where you started, but isn't. Select PSE for the program you want help with, click "Activation and Signing In" for the problem area and you will see this:

I just bought an iMac and I´m a new User of Mac. I captured my data and my country is Mexico. What can i do if the final data check of Mac shows Spain? Is it important or it doesn´t matter?

Having just bought an iMac and set every thing up I have found that my IPad seems to run very slow. I have also just updated the IPad to OS 5.1 .Are these two things connected or is there a problem with the IPad
Using the Mac with your iPad has nothing to do with the fact that the iPad is running slow. There could be any number of reasons why the iPad is now running slow.
Have you tried a reset on the iPad?
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. -
I download quite a few magazines through the app store on my iPad. I just bought an iMac and was wondering if there is a way to transfer those purchases over so that I could read them on my Mac?
You should be able to use the OpenVPN Connect app running on your iPad to connect your iPad to the VPN directly. It is an official OpenVPN client for iOS devices.
In what way is it "not compatible"? Have you tried it? Tunnelblick is an OpenVPN client, so your school's VPN is using the OpenVPN protocol. That means any OpenVPN client should be able to access it. (It is possible, but unlikely, that your school uses encryption that is not available on the iPad, but that would be very unusual.)
Otherwise, a remote control app on your iPad would let you control your Mac at home. "Back to My Mac", for example, would allow you to control your Mac remotely. The tricky part of this is that usually a VPN is set up to send all Internet traffic via the VPN server, and I'm not sure how that would work with "Back to My Mac". -
I have just bought an iMac, and when I had my PC I had all my mp3 music on external hard drive and used to stream using software called ps3 server and tveristy which used to pick up on my Roberts radio via network wi fii and on my iPad via AirPlay. How can I do the same with iMac as this software isn't compatible

My computer (MacBook mid-2007) does not recognise the battery suddenly. A cross appears on the image. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing it but it didn't help. Is the battery dead?

I just bought an iMac and it does not have IDVD on it. Isn't it supposed to have it???? HEEELLLLPPP?
No, iDVD and iWeb are no longer included with Macs shipping with Lion preinstalled.
You will need to purchase iLife '11 on DVD if you need iDVD. -
Just bought an Imac and now I hear that new line/reduced prices coming
I just bought my Imac and now I hear that within the next week or so that a new line is coming out.
If just a price drop then that fine and maybe I can get price diff. If not then I must return it? eeeeeeeeeeek.
Does anybody have any more details on this?
thanksWhy must you return it? The computer is still as good as when you purchased it.
Don't get caught up in the "I have to have the newest latest thing" trap. There is always something new coming out around the corner. If you keep trying to time your purchases you'll end up either frustrated because Apple does not conform to your schedule, or waiting too long to make a purchase when you really need a new computer.
Buy what you need when you need it. A computer is obsolete when it no longer meets your expectations of what it should do.
Best of luck. -
I just bought a IMac and i am trying to install Logic Pro 9 but it keep failing
I just bought a IMac and i am trying to install Logic Pro 9 but it keep failing, how do I get it to work?
In that case it sounds like your DVDs have a physical problem or your DVD drive has an issue reading the DVD,
I would suggest you try making DMG inages of your DVDs, save them to your Mac and try installing from the disk images instead... (Disk Utility reads the DVDs in a slightly different way that can help get around certain physical issues)

just bought an iMac and it does not recognise my existing HP printer which is wifi - how do i connect it to my imac
It should recognize it if they are both on the same Wifi network. Have you signed into the Wireless network on your iMac?
Also, you must go into the Printer and log the printer into the wireless network. If the printer was working wirelessly before, this may have already been done.
If that does not help, tell us the model of the HP Printer. -
when i click to open firefox it says that "firefox is already running but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system." and I've tried to shut down and restart my computer but it keeps showing the same message. I've even uninstalled Firefox and then reinstalled in the hopes that the problem would be solved but it this message is still popping up. What can I do to solve this problem?
