I have just gotten the new imac for christmas. where do i insert a disc into my new iMac?

i am unsure on how to insert a disc into the new imac.

You need to purchase an external, third party FireWire/Thunderbolt or USB 2.0/3.0 optical drive or
You can purchase a companion drive direct from Apple for $79.
Third party drives will be cheaper.

    i have just downloaded the latest update for Pages on my iPad and now it can no longer open up documents in iCloud and then just shuts down. What The.

    Before the reset quit Pages like this:
    Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app.

    Maybe on outlook application if you use it with  pc. If not try to restore your iPhone with a old backup from iTunes.

    I have just updated the i06 software for my iPad and it will not connect to my home wifi network - all my other devices are able to connect to my wifi network.
    I have attempted all troubleshooting actions suggested and nothing has worked. I have restored my iPad network and factory settings - Please help - this is frustrating me

    you have to set up your router to solve th problem. first find and write down the ipad mac address.
    then log on to your router using your laptop or any device that can connect to router at 192.168.0.1 in your web browser. please check out my posting about how to resolve the wifi connection problem.
    i think the ios6 update has reset the networking but if you set up the router then you should not have the same problem any more.

  • Where do i insert a cd into my new iMac?

    I just setr up my new mac. I can't find a place to insert a CD or DVD?????

    The CD/DVD SuperDrive is no longer built into the iMac. Basically it comes down to the fact that there is no optical drive thin enough to be installed into the ultra thin iMac enclosure.
    You need to either purchase Apple's own external drive for $79 U.S.D or purchase a third party external CD/DVD optical drive.
    Not trying to be sarcastic or rude here, but we see a lot of these posts about the absence of the SuperDrive. Before plunking down a lot of money for a brand new iMac, it would be good to do a little research about what features are available or not available for Apple products.
    There is nothing in Apple's current iMac product specs that mention the iMacs coming with a built-in CD/DVD drive, any longer.
    And, if you did a little research about the new iMacs like product reviews and such, you would've found out about the deleted optical drive in the new iMac design.
    Plus, being so thin, some common sense would prompt you to ask before buying where would a CD/DVD go in such a thin computer as the new iMacs are, now.
    Sorry,
    But the missing iMac built-in CD/DVD drive issue has been covered to death here and elsewhere.
    Why would one buy a product without knowing anything or everything about it before you buy?
    It boggles me.

  • I have just got an ipod touch for christmas have created an apple account and linked it to my bank card so i could buy the odd app i have since bought a 69p app and it has done an update my bank account balance has changed by £1.58 can anyone advise

    i would just like to know why when i bought a 69p app that it seems apple have taken 1.58 out of my bank account, the ipod has updated since i have had it but i was led to believe all the other free apps i downloaded were free, also that wifi was free so i cant see where the charge has come from, any advise would be very welcome, im a noob to apple merchandise.
    Thanks

    It sounds like a cred hold was placed on your account for the free apps.  See:
    iTunes Store: About credit-card authorization holds
    I would wait until you get the email receipt(s) for your purchases.  If yu were charge more than you think then:

    Terry,
    Plug your iPhone 5 into your Leopard Machine.
    Fire up iPhoto.
    The phone should become available in iPhoto, and then you can import the camera roll.

    Anyone having the same problem?

    Makes no difference if anyone is having the same problem.  The important thing is that it's happening to YOU!
    You have 14 days to return the computer w/no questions asked. 
    Strongly suggest that you take FULL advantage of the above before it runs out.  Let Apple deal w/the problems.

    I have just started to use Muse for our design agency and learning how to build ourselves a new site, I have managed to create a basic lightbox which contains sliding images, what I need to do now is have a pop up window which goes into detail about the projects, what I would like is a piece of text  or icon that when you roll over it and then click a separate window pops up with additional information in, once finished reading the info you can then click to close the box, any advice on how to do this?

    The best way to do what you're asking is with the Composition widget. Start with the Tooltip preset, which, by default shows the info on rollover. You can change the option to show on click, which is what you're after. You can also add the close button or have the info disappear on rollout.

  • I have just bought the new mac and can't set it up as my main computer for iTunes

    I have just bought the new mac and have synced it with my ipod but the ipod is not the primary computoer for itunes.
    My old computer is the primary one
    I have synced my ipad but the apps did not transfer to my mac
    any help would be appreciated
    thx

    You have me confused as to where the apps really are. You mention iPod and mention that the iPod isn't your primary computer. Obviously, it can't be - its an iPod. I'm not trying to be a jerk - I just dont understand what that means.
    The you say that the old computer is the primary computer for iTunes. That makes more sense. Anyway, you could have transferred the iTunes library from the old computer to the new Mac, but I assume that you did not realize that.
    So ... If the apps are on your iPad - but did not transfer to iTunes when you synced the iPad with the new Mac - transfer Purchases. Connect the iPad to the Mac, launch iTunes, right click on the iPad name on the left and select Transfer Purchases. That will put the apps in iTunes on the Mac.
    Movies cannot be downloaded again for free because Apple does not have an agreement with the movie studios to allow for that. At least that is how I understand the way that works.

  • So, I have just about had it. For nine days now,  I have valiantly tried to move my library to an external drive. At first, I attempted to move it to my 2TB Time capsule, iTunes didn't like its new home though and moved home without telling me.

    So, I have just about had it. For nine days now,  I have valiantly tried to move my library to an external drive. At first, I attempted to move it to my 2TB Time capsule. iTunes didn't like its new home though and moved home without telling me. So then there were two libraries. I meshed them back together reluctantly and iTunes in a silent revolt, absolutely refused to use its own 'Keep Library Organized' criteria and may as well have thrown my music against the wall. Seriously, my 5 year old nephew has his computer files better managed. Then I bought a 3TB Time Capsule and you may ask yourself why??? Well, iTunes doubled in size- although when I ran apps that are designed to find duplicate iTunes files, it deleted the music I actually bought from iTunes. So then I watched as iTunes got it back. How you ask; I run a MacBook Air, iMac and Mac mini in my house - as soon as one powered up it hit the net like a sailor on leave and re-downloaded it all without abandon. I tried to keep the libraries separate, no success there. I tried to keep them unified; iTunes response was to ask me if I wanted to join iTunes Match every time I logged on to my computer and on any computer - my iTunes match song number has been as high as 24,367 and as low as 11,112. And I can't simply refuse iTunes. No one refuses iTunes. Refusal to allow iTunes Match to run through all 24000 songs again was to revoke my rights to the songs that were once part of my library. If I took a long time to decide or was visibly impatient while iTunes did its little 3 hour scan it would arbitrarily decide that music I bought from iTunes was ineligible for iTunes Match. How could that possibly be??? I am missing music, or at least iTunes tells me so by showing me that lovely exclamation point. I have tried backing up my computer to do a full system restore and start all over. Time Capsule claims I have 979 GB of data and takes its sweet time to even back up one gig (about 18 minutes) even though I can transfer files to my Time Capsule at about 1 GB every 40 seconds. I guess though performing back-ups are somewhat like government jobs; it will get done, when it gets done. The back up requirement of 979 GB is surprising though, my Mac claims that I currently occupy just about 25% of my 2TB drive. The discrepancy, who knows, but I think the solution lies somewhere in iTunes. But maybe iPhoto. But that is for another time.

    After admittedly only a quick read the one thing you don't say is how you are trying to make this move.  Most people with moving library issues do it the wrong way.  Plenty of web sites tell you how to do it the wrong way.
    If the iTunes application is started before the drive with the library is fully mounted and awake iTunes will revert back to the internal drive.

  • I had an iphone 4, and I have just gotten an iphone 5. How do I restore everything from my old phone to my new one?

    I had an iPhone 4, and I have just gotten an iPhone 5. How do I restore all of my content and settings from iCloud. The sales lady skipped through that option when she "set up" my phone...

    When you go through Setup Assistant on a new iOS device, choose "Restore from iCloud Backup" and enter your iCloud account and password. You will see the three most recent backups for each of the devices on which you enabled Backup. Choose from which backup to restore.

    I just downloaded the newest update for mountain lion. After downloading any restarting for installation, I got a message stating that the update cannot be installed due to an error. Yet when I check I have version 10..8.3 and safari version 6.0.3, which the update was for.  Does this mean that the update is iinstalled and the message was incorrect?

    Good timing! Oh well, at least you shouldn't have to update again for a while. It will be nice kickstarting your Mac with the very latest System Update knowing any hiccups from 10.8.2 would have been ironed out if they were going to affect your workflow at all.
