  • I have apps on my iMac, do i need to buy them again for my macbook?

    Do i need to re-purchase all of the apps i have bought for my iMac when i  buy a Macboook?

    It really depends on the App.  Contact the vendor and ask them how many licenses you are entitled.  If they won't redownlaod with the same account for free on the other machine, ask the vendor for help. You should seriously consider upgrading to 10.7.3 because of this:

  • I bought macbook pro and update my osx, i already have the codes and install mountain lion and its been 2 days now and still downloading mode

    Disable anti virus software.
    Apps such as Little Snitch, Net Nanny, and Hands Off can prevent apps from downloading including Mountain Lion as well as third party download managers.
    Keep in mind, for downloading Mountain Lion from the App Store, a high speed (broadband) internet connection is strongly recommended by Apple as noted here > iTUNES STORE - MAC APP STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS
    If you need to reinstall OS X or repair the the startup disk using Mountain Lion Recovery, that requires broadband access to the internet via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection. OS X is downloaded over the internet form Apple when OS X Recovery is used for reinstallation.

  • I have recently bought my Mac mini ( July 12) and have already requested my free update code for mountain lion, got a reference nr, but I still haven't received a code via email to update? Its been 12 days. Any advice?

    I am still in the return window but i really do not want to return my mac as i know it has the ability to do what i want, my problem is just finding the software that will work as i know there has been a lot of complications with OS X Mountain Lion with softwares that caim to be compatible but then later turn out not to be.
    I have been a windows user for years and this is really my first mac but apart from the hole software issue i find the mac 10x better than any windows computer i have ever used. For example i bought a HP laptop 4 weeks ago and has nothing but problems. At first the fans stopped working and making weird noises and then it began switching off when ever it felt like it and freezing like mad when i was trying to access the smallest program. I have found that now a days you dont get what you pay for with Windows especially since Windows 8 was released. Also Laptops such as HP now are just crammed with cheap parts, they dont take pride in their systems like they once used to unlike Apple. I know i will get more than a year or 2 out my mac (hopefully a lot more) but with windows systems it just seems to break all the time costing more money on extending warrantys. Also i like mac because i dont need to send it away if i ever get a problem, i can just take it into the apple shop half a mile down the road and they will fix it in store. Where as with windows i am waiting 2 weeks+ to just hear back from them.

  • Do I need to buy Pages again for my new ipad 2?

    I have Pages on my Macbook Pro. Do I need to buy it again for my new ipad 2? I can't seem to find a way of accessing it from the ipad.

    Yes, you will need to buy the app version from the app store if you want to use it on the iPad - the version on your Mac (OS X) is not compatible with the iPad (iOS), they are different operating systems

    Yes, just reinstall from your Time Machine backup you made before updating to Mountain Lion.

  • My mountain lion upgrade is take long after the initial installation finish it is showing increasing negative number like -50 munites remaining

    My mountain lion upgrade is take long after the initial installation finished it is showing increasing negative number like -50 munites remaining while still saying installing os x on the disk.
    I mean it starting saying time remaining about 6 munites
    Now it up to time remaing about -55 munites
    I thing something is wrong with this installation and all I did is fallow the onscreen instruction
    Thank

    You might want to just manually power down your machine and, if necessary, start the installation process anew. You're unlikely to damage anything by doing this. It may have actually installed and is just hanging when it's supposed to reboot.
    Good luck,

  • My macbook pro shut down unexpectedly and its not coming up.

    My macbook pro unexpectedly shut down and its not coming up. Cant seem to get it to start. What do i do pls?

    What were you doing when it crashed? Was it plugged in or running off battery? Are you currently attempting to turn it back on while connected to AC?
    Go through each step below. If no resolution is found, you need to bring your machine in for servicing. BOL:

  • (Mountain) Lion and its endless spinning beach ball.

    These cats like beach balls a lot.
    I really hate to complain about any Apple product because this company really care about details and user experience. But this Lion thing is enough for me. Since I installed Lion on my computer, my work became a frustration. The computer decreased its speed 70% at least. Switching between applications became a torture while watching desperately the beach ball spinning endlessly until the solicited window draws completely. Numbers and Pages spend the time saving and saving taking from four to ten seconds each time while annoying me and stopping me from finishing my work and taking me out of concentration every five minutes or so. It's a hateful nuisance. The icons in Launchpad linger to draw, all I see for several seconds are their dotted frames until they want to appear. The whole machine freezes completely while the spinning beach ball spins happily and eternally until I force quitting application by application or reboot the computer at once, turning it off and on again for the third time this day, and the fifteenth time this week. Fixing privileges and cmd+alt+P+R don't work.
    I beared all this torture for months hoping Mountan would fix this mess. Oh, poor of me, such a naive user; the hours and hours downloading the upgrade with a child-like heart who expect to be given a wished gift were useless and disappointing. The result is the same or worse if I dare to use iCloud.
    So well. Fortunately for me, I had bought Tiger on disc a long ago... I'll draw back this weekend until Apple DO SOMETHING with this lazy Lion. For my part, the 200+ Mountain Lion features are totally useless and a spent of money and disk space if I can't even switch between applications without groaning or if I can't finish my Page/Numbers work on schedule and without disturbances.
    My opinion: Mac OS X is a beautiful operating system but, for productivity purposes, stay away from Lion in any version. Because when you finish fixing all its mess, you will have lost your temper, your job or became insane, or all at once. It doesn't worth the while, better you invest the time with your family.

  • I am Installing OS X mountain lion and its frozen while installing

    I have been having some problems with my imac for some time now. It kept freezing and crashing. I tried upping the ram and that didn't help. I also ran the fix disk and that didnt help. So I backed everything up and erased the hard drive and attempted to reinstall OS X mountain lion. It downloaded the software fine and restarted and took me to a install screen where it has been stuck on 21min remaining with nothing happening for a long time now ( well over 21min).  Is there anything I can do to get it going and installing?

    Here is a link: https://itunes.apple.com/en/app/mplayerx/id421131143?mt=12
    I agree that VLC is also a good choice but MPlayerX is more user friendly.

  • Screen Sharing between Mountain Lion and Tiger not working

    rMBP running 10.8.2 ML and a G3 iMac running 10.4.11 Tiger.
    When I try and use Screen Sharing on the MBP to connect to the G3 it prompts for both a username and password. I enter a valid user and pw but it fails with
    Authenication failed to "Ruby".
    Please verify you have entered the correct name and password.
    Third-party VNC clients, e.g. JollysFastVNC on my MBP and Remoter on my iPhone, can connect fine, but they only request a password.
    Any ideas?

    I've been using Screen Share on my home network for a very long time.  My most used computer, MacBook Pro (2011) was just upgraded to ML, my desktop still has Lion on it - and can't be upgraded because it is an early MacPro.  I was having intermittant problems getting the MBPro to connect to the MPro screen, and resetting the PRAM was correcting it (but it could have been the rebooting process alone - I don't know).  Now I can share the MPro disks on my network but not the screen.  Now, to me, that's wierd.  I've tried doing all kinds of setting checks, preference removal, etc.  No luck.  I can, however (as someone above mentioned) connect from my MPro (Lion) to my MBPro (ML) screen.  I've checked my Intego VirusBarrier X6 settings, i.e. blocked addresses (in the past that has happened and blocked) and I've even entered my MBPro address into the approved address section.  I've checked/rechecked the Sharing Preferences, turned them on/off, etc.  All to no avail.
    Is this a Mountain Lion / Lion issue, a Mountain Lion issue, or something somewhere corrupt?  I used to have Remote Desktop on the MPro, but for my needs Screen Share & Disk Share suit my needs on my home network.  I have LogMeInIgnition, which when the last time I tried to connect to the MBPro it showed it offline - and it isn't.  I feel there's something in ML blocking things.
    I'm open to suggestions, and a fix if needed.  This is frustrating.  Not that I can't use the exercise to walk to the room where the MPro is - not the point.
