I just purchased a i mac and i wanted to know if anyone knows how to put music in my mp3. do i have to use iTunes or how do i go about it?

can anyone help me here im soooo lsot i dont know what to do

Many generic mp3 players come with a usb style charger/cable.  If yours does try connecting the cable to one of the Mac's usb ports and the other end to your player.  If it has the appropriate plug 'n play firmware it will appear as a drive icon on the desktop.  Browse the player looking for a folder named "music" or something similar.  Try dragging some tracks from iTunes and dropping them into this folder.  Eject the drive icon (right or control click and select eject).  Unplug the player and check for success.

  • I've just bought a new mac and I want to transfer the content from my old Macbook to my new. If I have iCloud enabled on both devices, is this simple, or is there a limit to what I can transfer? For example, can I upload word files to iCloud?

    iCloud is not the way to do this. You should use Migration Assistant - with this you can transfer your complete User folder from the old Mac including preferences and logins. You will need to connect the two with FireWire or USB depending on the models.
    Ideally you should do this before you set up the new Mac - if you create a user account with the same name than the Migration will have to give the migrated user folder a different name. When you first switch on the new Mac it should ask you if you want to transfer your data, and give you instructions.

  • I just bought a macbook pro and I want to know how to restore pictures that were backed up on iCloud but then deleted from my phone. Isn't that the point of the backup so I can delete and make more space. Please help!

    Log into the iCloud on your MacBook Pro and enable Photo Stream:
    Then launch iPhoto and set iPhoto's Photo Stream preferences to the following:
    Then check the Photo Stream section of iPhoto:
    This is to confirm that the photos are still in Photo Stream. If they are they will be imported into the library. 
    NOTE: not all photos in an iPhone will be in the Photo Stream. PS only keeps photos in it for 30 days.
    If you have the missing photos in your library put them in an album.  Connect your iPhone to the Mac and open iTunes.  In iTunes you can select that album in the library and sync the photos to your iPhone to get them back on the iPhone.

    do not confuse moving your whole folder and library with moving just media files as in
    iTunes for Mac: Moving your iTunes Media folder - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1449
    Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Start iTunes with the option key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.

  • Hi i just got a new mac pro and i wanted to know how to transfer all my music from my old desktop to my new mac?

    hi i just bought the macbook pro and i wanted to know how i can transfer all my music on itunes from my old desktop to my new macbook?

    Derek's right. To explain his second point more, you can mount your old Mac's hard drive on your new one and once you've done this you can simply drag your music folder over.
    You can mount various ways, if you have a router and both are on your LAN network I believe u use the Go menu in your new Mac to mount your old one.
    You can also use a cable directly between the two. I did this years agonwith ethernet but I bet USB or even FireWire is possible.
    Once you get your music copied over, you may need to add your music into your Mac's iTunes.
    Open iTunes and then select Add to Library and then find your music folder to add. You can add single songs or folders of songs or your entire folder of all songs.

  • 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.

    There are no known viruses for OS X.  If you have to worry about a website putting some malware on your computer, then you should not visit it any longer.  Find a legitimate site.

    1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPod but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPod with it.
    above covers purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

    I'm having the same issue. All my applications transferred over. Lightroom is working, but when I went to edit a picture in Photoshop, I got an error message. It told me to restart, but the program still won't open after restart. It says licensing has stopped working, but what does that mean? I can't tell whether it's unsupported/blocked, or if it's a malfunction. The error code is 150:30 See screen shot.

    The Lightroom serial number is cross-platform. It works on both Windows and Mac.

    You would have to purchase Microsoft Office for the Mac, if you want genuine Microsoft Word, Excel, and Powerpoint. There are other less costly compatible and work-alike products available.
    To install Microsoft Windows, you need to buy Microsoft Windows software, run BootCamp software and partition your Boot Drive, then install Microsoft Windows in its own disk partition, which is a fairly complex process. Then, while running Windows, Install whatever other Windows programs you would like to run. None of this is necessary to simply read and write Microsoft Word or Excel documents.
    There are other compatibility options that you may find adequate for other Windows programs. What do you want to run in Windows?
