I have a wireless network at home. I run my iphone and ipad on it with no problems. Just purchased a MacBook Pro, and now my wi-fi keeps disconnecting and i get an error message saying another device is using the same IP address. What does all this mean?

I just purchased a macbook pro and was wondering about an install disk. It seems to be missing some of the applications that should be on it from a fresh install. I was wondering if I would have to purchase a new OS and do a fresh install?

Ahhh, well you never mentioned that before. You need to contact your friend from whom you purchased the computer. He/She should have any and all install discs for any third-party software included as well as for OS X and the original pre-installed software.
Apple will gladly sell you replacements for any discs that did come with the computer originally, but they will not do anything for you because you purchased the computer used. If it's in warranty still, then you can get any warranty covered things taken care of through AppleCare:

Just purchased a MacBook Pro and working on IMovie. Can I burn my movie on a plain DVD??

Just purchased a MacBook Pro and working on IMovie. Can I burn my movie onto a DVD.? (I don't have IDVD and understand it's not available to my computer.

No. You need a DVD authoring application such as iDVD.
New machine purcahses do not include iDVD and iWeb as part of the iLife '11 suite of apps but that doesn't mean they don't work in Lion.
Apple no longer sells iDVD or iWeb so you'll have to search for a reseller of the iLife '09 or '11 DVD or use a more expensive authoring app like Toast.

I have just purchased a MacBook Pro and iWork's. when I try to upload documents using iCloud, it now wants me to purchase iWorks for iOS ? Do I need to purchase both versions?

I have just purchased a MacBook Pro and iWork's. When I try to upload documents using iCloud, it now wants me to purchase iWorks for iOS ? Do I need to purchase both versions?

To be able to use documents at iCloud.com, you need at least one iOS device that uses the same account with at least one of the iWork apps installed.

Just Purchased a MacBook Pro. What it the best Adobe product to get to be able to view PDFs?

Just Purchased a MacBook Pro. What it the best Adobe product to get to be able to view PDFs?

Yes, Mountain Lion has a convoluted method to do a "Save as", but try this. Open the applicable PDF, from the "File" menu select "Duplicate". This will create a copy of the PDF file and highlight the name at the top of the page. Here you can type in a new name, and a gain from the "File" menu select "Move To" or "Save" to save the resultant, newly named PDF.

I have just bought a macbook pro and i want to use an ext hard drive with it which i previously used on a windows computer, but when i plug it in it doesn't show up on my macbook pro, I've wiped it and just need to format it but don't know how, help

Try the other USB port. If it still doesn't show up in Disk Utility then there may be something wrong with your Mac. Try something else in each USB port and see if it is seen. If the other thing, like a USB thumb drive, does show up in disk utiltiy then the USB ports are fine.
Power down the system and restart with the drive connected, go to DU and see it it is seen.

I just purchased a macbook air, and because of the limited memory (256 gb) and my HUGE music library, I need aomne form of external storage. i am considering either using iCloud for iTunes, or purchasing an external hard drive. suggestions or opinions?

hi! just purchased a macbook air, and because of the limited storage (256 gb) and my massive music library, I am going to find an alternative storage method. I am debating between an external hard drive and utilizing iCloud. icloud makes me a little nervous....having my entire library in "the cloud" and deleted off of my desktop - do most of you who use icloud for music and photos have a backup on external hard drive anyway? So....iCloud vs. external hard drive for storage. Thoughts? opinions? thanks!

iTunes Match allows you to put 25,000 songs in the Cloud. At present it isn't possible to add more storage but I wouldn be surprised if that isn't an option offered in the future. With iTunes Match you allow Apple to match your songs (purchased from Apple, ripped from your own CDs are purchased elsewhere). When Apple cannot match a song a copy of yours is uploaded.
Once the match process is complete (for my 24,000+ collection it took a couple days) the fun begins. Since my MBA can't hanle all my music, I use iTunes Match to download a small selection of my music every couple of weeks. My music remains in the cloud even when I delete them from my computer and if I have WiFi accesss I can get new songs. It is a great service and much more convenient than keeping your MBA's music on an external drive.

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.

I just purchased a mac pro and i wanted to know if they bring microsoft installed already or would i have to purchase it?

i just purchased a mac pro and i wanted to know if they bring microsoft installed already or would i have to purchase it?

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?
