I'm a 41 year old man and Sony makes me want to cry

I have never felt so bullied by a company I've admired and supported my whole life. I feel so completely betrayed and I'll never forget this experience. Sony should invest more money in improving their technology rather than spending it on devising ways to bounce customers from one useless department to another to not end up anywhere in the end

dear gary,
thank you so much.
as it turns out, the person who created these slides for me did not use masters -- argh, another thing to remember when hiring a keynote jockey -- one would THINK when using keynote they'd use the masters...else why not just fool around with power point?!
i am saving your advice for future reference and thank you again for your kind attention.

I've got twin 12 year old boys and want to set I tunes accounts for them both, I need to be able to administer any purchases as they will need to use my bank account. How can I do this?

What do you mean by administer?
When you set up the account you have to enter a birthday and it has to results in being 13 years old or older.
You can set a Restriction that hides the iTunes and App store and another one to prevent in-app purchases. See:

My macbook pro is just over 3 years old now and off and on during this time the screen will just go all black. Lately this blackout is lasting longer and I was wondering what is causing this. I am afraid that this will not come back on in the future.

My MacBook pro is just over 3 years old now and the screen has totally blacked out for a few seconds at a time. It will come back on in a few seconds with the exception this past month it has stayed black for a longer period of time like one minute. It scares me to think that one of these times it won't come back on. I have noticed it happens more often when I am using just the battery power. Does anyone have any idea what causes this? just to mention my battery was not low when this happens.

jmckl,
if your MacBook Pro is a 15-inch Mid 2010 model (“MacBookPro6,2”), then it might be exhibiting the defect that is documented on this Apple Support page. If your black screen is due to this defect, then that page states that Apple will service this problem on this specific model of MacBook Pro gratis, for three years from the date of purchase. However, some commenters here have noted that sometimes the servicing is done gratis without having proof of the date of purchase. If you have an Apple Store near you, you might consider bringing your MacBook Pro there to have them check for the presence of this defect.
It is only the 15-inch Mid 2010 model that has this problem; no other model suffers from it.

How can I create multiple accounts without the necessity to create multiple email addresses? I now have 2 i-phones (mine and my wife's), 1 i-pad (mine), 1 i-pad mini (10 year old's), and 1 I-pod touch (11 year old's). I would like to maintain purchase control, but would like to be able to have a separate account ID for each person. Is that possible?

Each email address can only be on one iTunes account, and all purchases are tied to the account that buys them. If you want to have separate iTunes accounts on each then you will need separate email accounts for each iTunes account

I am confused about Icloud. I have a 5 year old Macbook, a 2 year old macbook and a 5 year old mac mini. What exactly do I need to do to get all this connected via Icloud. I also have an Iphone 3G. Help please!

I am confused about Icloud. I have a 5 year old Macbook, a 2 year old macbook and a 5 year old mac mini. What exactly do I need to do to get all this connected via Icloud. I also have an Iphone 3G. Help please! Also, I still don't understand exactly what the benefits are. At the moment it seems a lot of hassle to change a system that's been working perfectly well and that I'm very happy with. I'm not at all sure whether the mac mini (1.66 GHz INtel Core Duo) can be brought up to the relevant spec to run ICloud. Any thoughts?

There are two aspects to iCloud. One is simply getting an account, or migrating a mobileme account to iCloud. The second part is using the various features of iCloud to sync contacts, calendars, use music match or photo sharing, and store iWorks documents.
First to get an iCloud account:
If you have a mobileme account, you can migrate by simply logging onto www.icloud.com (ignore any references to Lion and just click through to complete the migration). If you have OS X Lion or an iOS 5 mobile device, you can create an iCloud account on that device using any valid AppleID.
Once you have an account, you can use JUST the mail account if you wishi - it is a standard IMAP account so you would set it up like any other IMAP email account you have, in whatever client program you use to read email.
To use the OTHER feautes of iCloud, your computers will have to be running OS X Lion (10.7). Your iPhone 3G will never be able to use iCloud as it cannot run iOS 5 (you need a min. of an iPhone 3GS to run iOS 5).
The requirements for OS X Lion are here - http://www.apple.com/macosx/specs.html You need a min. of a Core 2 duo processor so you mini is not capable of running Lion.
So, in your case, the single reasons for iCloud would be if you have a mobileme account, then use the online www.icloud.com to migrate your account so you do not lose your @me.com email address. You can use iCloud email (without using any other iCloud features) by setting it up as IMAP mail with these settings - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864
If you want an iCloud account and do NOT already have a mobileme account, you will need to upgrade one machine at least to Lion in order to be able to create an iCloud account.

Hello Janet.
Are you sure that's what the error message says? Can you provide a screenshot of it?
If it says you don't have enough privileges, it's because you are on a guest-style account. Contact your system administrator for support on that, or change into an administrator account to install Firefox.

HT201407 new iphone 5 and 4 year old macbook, and for some reason my computer says a later version of itunes is required to use iphone to sync. updated most recent version possible and still can not sync to iphone.

new iphone 5 and 4 year old macbook, and for some reason my computer says a later version of iTunes is required. So, i went to ITunes and found i have the latest version availble at this time. iTunes say phone can not be synced because it requires a version of 10.7 or greater?

iPhone 5 requires OS X 10.6.8 & iTunes 10.7 or greater. I suspect you're running Leopard, 10.5.8, correct? If so, you will first have to update your OS, then iTunes in order to sync your phone.

It's a 4+ GB file. It takes some time if you have a slow Internet connection. You may have lost connection with the server. Try pausing the download for a few second then restarting.

That's all nonsense. Most people don't post anything if they don't have any problems. People who do have problems usually have very specific reasons for them that they have caused themselves.

I have a year old iMac and Macbook, both on 10.7.3. Every time the iMac goes to sleep I lose wi-fi. No problem with the Macbook and iPad. A lot of people seem to have the same problem. What's the solution?

I have a year-old iMac and Macbook, both on 10.7.3. Every time the iMac goes to sleep I lose wi-fi from Airport Express. No problem with the Macbook or my iPad. It seems a lot Mac users are having the same problem. Is there a solution? Does Apple have a solution?

Sometimes there are problems.
Somethings to try but probably won't help....
1. Repair Disk Permissions
2. Startup in Safe mode by holding down the "Shift" key....
3. Reset the P Ram by holding down the "Command/Option/P/R" keys at the same time...
The above are standard items to do on any Mac from time to time.
I repair permissions at least once a month....
The other 2 periodically as they do straighten things out when they get out of whack....
Thanks for the feedback.

One year old tomorrow and very unwell MBP

Hi
I have had many problems with my MBP- it's officially 1 year old tomorrow and doesn't seem to be happy about it!
I have so far had the following replaced:
Logic board
Fan
Outer side casing
Keyboard
2 x batteries ( first swelled up 2nd just died)
My optical drive has stopped uploading audio discs- currently in communication with applecare on that one- They insisted I re instal l OSX- which I've done, do a hardware test- also done and I'm still having the problems. 1 issue- hoping they take it in soon and replace it!!
MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-857 - this is the drive I have and I know from other posts it has known issues!
Anyway now there seems to be a problem with the sound on my MBP
It started my making a strange crackling noise on opening some programs-
Now the sound in general ( Itunes, web pages, alerts) is distorted and echos.
Any ideas what could be causing this?
Am getting seriously frustrated as I love my MBP but it's just problem after problem.
Oh before you ask- yes I have bought applecare- was frightened not to with all my recent problems!
Do I just have a bad MBP ? week 9 I think
Thanks
E

The optical media standards are very much astray in this world. Some drives are very sensitive to the quality of the media you put in them. Some will get off balance if you use many sticky labels on disks, or a sticky label could get in on the drive and cause havoc. If you write on the disk label side, it could interfere with the ability of the disk to be read. If you have a brand new retail operating system disk, or a regular purchased (not rented, not preowned) commercial movie DVD, that is the correct region for your country that wont' play, then that's a good indication there is a hardware problem if this issue occurs immediately after an erase and install, and no peripherals are attached to the MacBook Pro. Start adding peripherals, software, or anything else that is third party, or new documents that could present data corruption issues, and you might be talking simply a data corruption issue with the driver, the mounting software, or something else on the machine. A vanilla machine is the only one you can tell with any certainty there is a hardware issue, short of some hardware test registering that issue. So backup your data at least twice, and erase and install, and see if the issues with the drive persist.
As for the sound issues, those might be fixed with a reset of the PRAM, or
changing the audio midi settings of the Audio Midi Setup application. That's covered in these two articles:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238

Basically my recommendation is to use process of elimination to make absolutely sure there is nothing software that could be causing the issue.

I have scanned about 1600 pages of 100-year old documents and saved them as pdf files. I would like to search them for keywords and phrases. Can anyone recommend software that can be used as an index for these documents?
