I just bought a NEW Pro... and there's a "Reminder" already in the Reminder app. How worried should I be?

I bought a new 13" MacBook Pro less than a week ago. Today, I opened the "Reminders" app and in the completed section was a reminder dated January 23rd, 2012 (today is June 14th, 2013!) and it says, "Be a *****". According to this site, http://www.chipmunk.nl/klantenservice/applemodel.html, the computer was manufactured in May 2013, so the date is probably made up. Should I be worried about whomever was messing with my computer? Worried if maybe they put a keystroke logger on it or something? Should I call Apple? I expected a new computer, not a used one. Thanks.

EDIT: I mean that the January 23rd, 2012 date was made up, not the manufacture date.

I bought Lightroom 3 or 4, can't remember which, as an online download. I then upgraded to 5 with a CD. I registered the upgrade on my Adobe account and that's where the serial number is. I just bought a new iMac and am trying to install Lightroom. The system is asking for my original serial number which I don't have. The point is. If I have the upgrade registered with my Adobe account, shouldn't that be proof that an earlier version was on my computer??? I'm really stuck. Need some advice! Thanks

Hi John,
Thanks for your response, but if you read my first mail, it's the original serial number that I don't have. I bought the original LR as download and have misplaced the serial number. Is there any way to find it???

I bought a new laptop and my itunes have not downloaded to the laptop. How can I get my library back?

I bough a new laptop and my itunes have not dowloaded to the laptop. How do I fix this?

Your library will only be on your new computer's iTunes if you copy it to it.
If you still have your old computer then you can copy it from that : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Or from your backup of your downloads/library (File > Add To Library).
If you don't have your old computer or a backup then you might (depending upon the country that you are in and if they music is still in your country's store) tbe able to redownload some/all of your past putchases via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your laptop's iTunes

Just bought a new iMac and there is an offer to upgrade to Windows 8 on the receipt. Bootcamp compatible?

Just as the title says, I bought a new iMac and on the receipt it says that this product qualifies for Windows 8 upgrade offer and says to go to windowsupgradeoffer. I downloaded it and it gave me a file called Windows8-UpgradeAssistant.exe. Can I use this file to Bootcamp my Mac of do I have to actually buy Windows 8? Can I change it to on iso image to use Bootcamp?

You can use that file you would need to but the full version of Windows 8. but the good new is that you can install Windows 8, take a look at this link, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5628?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

No, but it may help the chances of a successful installation.

Just as an aside - I have been getting messages on here from Adobe Admin saying that CS5 cannot be reinstalled because everything is now in the cloud and that for $350 I can buy CS6 to install on my new computer. What? Am I getting spammed on Adobe's site here?
Where did you see that?

I just bought a new iMac and I am using a apple air port router. How do I connect mt windows PC to the air port router do I can move files

I Just purchased a 21.5 iMac and connected it to the Internet using a apple air port router. How do I connect my windows PC to my air port router so I can transfer files.

It makes life easier to install the airport utility for windows.. which has a couple of different apps in it.. if you airport is new type then the utility is too old.. but is still valuable for Bonjour which provides network information for shared devices in the apple world to windows.. and a disk access agent..
It will also help the Apple computer access shared directory in the windows computer.. nowadays this is pretty easy.

My girlfriend just bought a new iphone and needs me to help from home with her apps. How can i see them? When I log in i see my apps and my music

My girlfriend needs me to log in to itunes to help her w her apps. but when i do all i see are mine. i am logged into her acct???

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can't keep swapping iTunes accounts to use other people's apps or you will locked out of changing back to your own account. I'm not sure how you can help her with her apps from another device.

I bought a new ipad and shared my documents in Pages from the old ipad to my cloud, but the only document showing on my new pad is the ones that was not in folders. Have I lost my documents for ever?

Thank you, but after an hour with apple support on the phone we came to the conclusion that the documents are lost... So the lesson is, don't trust icloud as a back up solution! A month worth of work down the drain...

I just bought a new iMac and now I am trying to use it as a screen for my Macbook pro, but it don't have a Mini DisplayPort the new model only have Thunderbolt which my Macbook don't have. Is there any way to connect this two mac's anyway??

I just bought a new iMac and now I amtrying to use it as a screen for my Macbook pro, but it don’t have a MiniDisplayPort the new model only have Thunderbolt which my Macbook don’t have. Isthere any way to connect this two mac’s anyway??

Screen sharing setup in 10.5, 10.6 are described by the links by operating system. 10.7 is fairly similar to 10.6.
And if both Macs have Firewire, you can setup a Firewire over IP network for fast communication between machines. Note if you have two different Firewire ports a 6 pin to 9 pin Firewire cable does exist. There are no Firewire to USB cables.

Just bought a new computer and downloaded itunes again and when I log in all my old music is not there. I created a new playlist but it won't sinq to iphone without erasing all my other songs.

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data. If you don't have any Apple devices then see HT2519 - Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store.

Tunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you use iTunes default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later. Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid. Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
You can re-download your available previous purchases.
