  • I just bought the new MacBook Air a few days ago and my Internet connection is so slow. My iPhone's connection works fine when connected to the wifi but the MacBook connects for a few seconds then drops completely. What do I do?

    I just bought the new MacBook Air a few days ago and my Internet connection is so slow. My iPhone's connection works fine when connected to the wifi but the MacBook connects for a few seconds then drops completely. What do I do? I tried connecting it to my phone's hotspot and it works perfectly. I'm a new Mac user so I have no idea what to do. I have Comcast xfinity cable and Internet. Thanks for the help.

    Your warranty includes 90 days of phone support. Contact Apple.

    Hi vickkjayy11 and welcome to Apple Support Communities,
    Just to be clear, we are a peer to peer support community and have nothing official to do with Apple.
    So to your problem, when you say:
    "I reset my macbook pro a few days ago"
    What exactly happened? Did you have a Time Machine backup?
    Read this:
    OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support
    It would help to know the exact model (size and year) and which OS you're using.

  • Can anyone help.  For security reasons I reset my admin password on my Macbook Pro a few days ago and didn't write it down.  Now I've forgotten it.  I didnt receive an installation disc when I purchased my Macbook Pro online - it didn't come with one-help

    Please see question above, but also note, I have the Applecare Protection Plan but am unable to get through to anyone on a weekend and I desperately need to use my laptop this weekend.  I can't log in at all now as I've forgotten my admin password.  A few weeks ago I also changed the password on my husband's new MacBook Pro and again forgot the password.  I spoke to someone at Apple and they helped me to reset it within minutes, by restarting the computer holding Command+something else (I can't remember what it was). A black screen with writing came up and I had to type in something like "password" (not sure exactly).  Anyway, this was a very quick and efficient process but I didn't write it down unfortunately.  Does anyone out there know what to do?  Thanks in anticipation

  • I just bought a new MacBook Pro a few days ago, but it tends to crash when I connect my iPhone. And I mean hardcore crashing like shut-your-entire-system crashing. What on earth can it be? How do I decode the message from my crash report regarding this?

    Alright, sorry for not having browsed this page a bit more before stating my question. I have just found some other similar topics on this problem. Please don't reply this thread unless there actually is a solution to the problem, because at current time there is not.

  • Just bought MacBook Pro a few days ago, iPhoto won't open

    Whenever I click on the icon, it says that my library needs to be upgraded to work with that version of iPhoto.
    Do I have to buy iLife 09 or something for it to work?
    I just switched from a PC to a Mac, and I am very confused.

    Make sure that your boot drive is selected as the Startup Drive in System Preferences. What you describe is very unusual behavior. If your Startup drive is selected in Preferences, try booting to your Recovery partition (holding down Command and R on startup) and using Disk Utility to verify and, if needed, repair your hard drive.
    If this doesn't help, you may have to take your MBP to your local Apple Store or an AASP.

  • I just got My iPad 2 for a few days ago but why the charger is not working, how they are going to replaced it with a new one ? ?

    Please be informed me... with my battery or charger problems....
    my iPad 2 charger is not working....
    since I've got it for five days ago, I only use it for three times....
    Are they going to replace it with a new one ?

    Most likely yes. There's a manufacturers warranty against defects for a year. I'd contact your place of purchase and talk to them about it.

  • I bought OS X Mountain Lion a few days ago from the App Store but it will not download. In the purchased section of the App Store it says 'an error has occurred' in red letters next to the download button. I have been charged for it but not downloaded it?

    If i click on the download button in the purhased section nothing happens. if i go into the App store and click download on Mountain Lion there it looks like it is starting to download and opens Lauchpad but it never moves off 'waiting'.
    Any help would be great.
    Thank you !

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Press Shift key on boot, delete Mountain Lion installer from Applications, open App Store > Purchases and download OS X. If it doesn't help > http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact

  • Just bought my first mac and trying to find and open a usb thumb drive

    Just bought my first mac and trying to find and open a usb thumb drive. Simple procedure on my pc but lost on the mac book.

  • I have the "never remember my history" selected in options, yet when I close Firefox and reopen, it goes directly to my hotmail inbox. This just started a few days ago, and it's a security hassel. What can I do?

    The only way I can clear it is to actually go in and manually delete my history. Help, please! Before a few days ago, my email session would only stay active as long as I didn't close the browser. I believe this applies to all sites requiring a password.

    I wonder whether Firefox is not really shutting down completely. Would you mind checking the Task Manager?
    After closing Firefox, press Ctrl+Shift+Esc and view the Applications tab. Firefox should disappear.
    Then check the Processes tab. Click the button to show processes from all users, and click the Image Name column heading to alphabetize for easier visual scanning. firefox.exe should close within 15 seconds, after all file maintenance is completed. If it is not closing, then some other process may be keeping it running, preventing your session from ending.
    If the session is ending, and your "When Firefox starts" is not set to "Show my windows and tabs from last time", the two normal ways you could be logged back in automatically are cookies and saved passwords.
    In case an add-on is responsible, you could try starting in Firefox's Safe Mode with add-ons disabled and see whether Firefox still remembers your session.
    First, make a backup of your profile folder for safekeeping. To back up Firefox, see [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information].
    Next, see [http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode]. Be careful not to "reset" anything permanently if you didn't back up.
    Does that change anything?

  • All of a sudden, iTunes wont verify my billing address, it accepted it just fine a few days ago.

    All of a sudden, iTunes wont verify my billing address. It accepted it just fine when i verified it a few days ago and ive made several purchases since then. But now my formerly valid address in invalid. This happened to me about a month ago as well.

  • Hi, i've just bought my first macbook pro, i just installed office mac and when i open the page i cannot see the minimise maximise and close buttons as it's hidden behind the apple menu bar, also when it's at full screen, those buttons do not appear

    hi, i've just bought my first macbook pro, i just installed office mac and when i open the page i cannot see the minimise maximise and close buttons as it's hidden behind the apple menu bar, also when it's at full screen, those buttons do not appear

    Try to edit the size of the page using the sides of the page, or if you are desperate, force quit using command-Q. In full screen put your cursor on the top of the page, and the menu bar will appear. If it doesn't keep "pushing" it up until it does. Hope this helps!

  • I have just bought my first MacBook Air do you need antivirus software?

    I have just bought my first MacBook Air should I have antivirus software like you do for a Windows base PC?

    I don't recommend anti-virus software for a Mac. Such software often causes more issues than it solves.
    Be careful about the websites you visit, the links you follow, and the attachments you open and you should be fine.

  • I just bought my first macbook and I want to know to write a document.

    I just bought my first macbook and I want to know how to write a document.  Does the macbook come with a comparable Microsoft Office Works but for Macs? Or do you have to purchase it?

    Hi Rosa Anna,
    Like Stedman1 mentioned the Mac includes Text Edit, witch can open and edit 95-98 Word Files. To use text edit. Go to the dock (the icons at the bottom of the screen), then click on Finder. Go to the menu bar, chose applications. When the applications window opens, locate and double click on "TextEdit."
    Pages, will also open word files.
    Microsoft makes Microsoft Office for Mac Home and Student 2011. It's not bundled in with the computer; when some thing bundled in with the computer your paying for it, you don't don't have a choice in the matter, and not every one wants Office. Most pcs these days come with a 30 day  trail of office.
    Microsoft offers the same 30 day trial for the mac.
