What do I need to watch you tube videos on my mini mac 10.9

When I try to watch certain you tube videos a pop up states to download adobe flash but my mac mini os v. 10.9 can't seem to download the recommended adobe flash player. What is my alternative to this problem, please anyone.... I am you tubeless in Michigan

Update your browser (Safari, Firefox, etc.), then update Flash. Flash is best updated from the "Flash Player" option in System Preferences--don't respond to pop-ups that try to guide you to sites not run by Adobe. That's a sure path to malware.

New Mac User - What do I need

Hi all, we are switching to Mac after being hardcore PC users for YEARS!! At this point, all of our documents are in MS Office programs. What software do I need to be able to transfer all the docs to our new Mac and then read docs from other PC users? The new Mac we are purchasing is OS-X, but in reading through the software that comes with it, I can't tell if what we will need is included. Thanks for any advice!

Hello:
As an option, you might consider iWork. That is the Apple product - less expensive than Office and seamlessly compatible with Office documents (at least with Word).
As a gratuitous suggestion, you do NOT need A/V software. There are NO viruses that affect a Mac running OS X - NONE. You also do not need to perform basic system maintenance. OS X, for example, "defrags" files of less than 20 MB on the fly.
Welcome from the "dark side" to the wonderful world of Apple computing.

Before I reinstall CS4 on my new Mac Mini what do I need to know?

I migrated all my data from my old Mac Mini to my new MM.
Photoshop on my new MM still thinks it's on my old MM.
i.e. The RAM available still reflects the RAM available on my old machine.
i.e. I had 4 GB on my old machine.
I now have 16GB of RAM available but the settings from the old machine
were migrated over to the new machine so the new machine thinks I only have 4gigs ram.
Would the best way to fix this problem be to uninstall my old software and reinstall it
on my new machine?
What precautions should I take?
Is it pretty straight forward?
Thanks

Yes, always do a clean install. You have up to 2 computers to activate it on so don't deactivate the old one until you are sure the new is fine. Photoshop is not a "drag to the app folder" install. It decides what your system has and places the correct files all over it. Also use the Uninstall utility in the Photoshop folder, never drag it to the trash.
The reason that PS CS4 reports 4 GB is because CS4 is 32 bit only on any system. 32 bit can only address a max of 4 GB ram.
64-bit OS benefits, limitations
So while a reinstall is a good thing, it won't see all of that ram.
No way to get by that except to install CS5 or later.

My New Mac Book Pro and not able to play You Tube,Help me

Hi,
This is my Mac Book Pro just out of the box-Xmas Present.
I am unable to play the You Tube on it!!
{I have a Mac Book Air with Snow Leapard OS that plays You Tube well}
How could I play you tube on my new Mac Book Air that has Lion OS?
Regards

OK, Thank you.
I could see that it prompts me to download something like what you have said, but was hessitant to do that becase I thought Apple and Adobe does not work together.
Happy Xmas to you.
Regards

What type of adobe player do i need to watch you tube videos?

Only the one from http://www.adobe.com/ All others should be ignored.

How do I get my old TM to a new mac user

ok, to keep things short, my old mac user became corrupt using my mobileme and the quickest and easiest way seemed to be that I backed up everything, created a new user and put everything into that.
That was the easy part, I didn't use TM, instead using an external hard drive to drag and drop my personal files i needed and itunes etc etc. I then deleted the old mac user.
I forgot about some photos and after having done everything a week ago and the new mac user working perfectly, I need a photo. When I opened TM the backups from a month are there but greyed out and I can't access them.
what do I need to do for my new mac user to see the old mac users backups ?

You might be able to re-create the old user account (exactly the same, of course) and use that account to restore the photos to that account.

Why does adobe reader 11 not allow you tube videos to be viewed on my MAC?

Adobe reader does not allow me to view you tube videos on my MAC. Why?

Every time I install the newest version, for whatever reason, if I want to watch a video, I get a missing plug in message. I don't get the usual "allow or deny" message with it, it just won't allow me to view the video. I watch a lot of art lessons on line and participate in blogs and this becomes very frustrating. The odd thing, is that when I un-install Adobe 11, I can view the videos but, of course, then I can't download PDF files. The weird thing is, other people in my neighborhood are having the same issue and don't know what to do about it. I may just download an earlier version of Adobe because I didn't have this issue until I updated it some months back. Maybe my 6 year old MAC can't handle the technology even though I am running on the latest Safari version?

I am a new mac user and I switch to mac due to the graphics that it brings. I do website in pc and I heard iweb is the best.NOW i heard that iweb will be discontinue. so what is the best application there for website using MAC OSX lion?

I am a new mac user and I switch to mac due to the graphics that it brings. I do website in pc and I heard iweb is the best.NOW i heard that iweb will be discontinue. so what is the best application there for website using MAC OSX lion?

It is now confirmed that iWeb, and iDVD, has been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. However, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
◼ MobileMe Gallery
All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken. If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows. Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
Click to view full size
However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone. How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
It now appears that the iLife suite of applications offered on disc is now a discontinued product and the remaining supported iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on. However, the iLife 11 boxed version that is still available at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD. Those two apps were listed in small, gray text on the iLife 11 box that I bought.
Personally, if I didn't already have a copy I would purchase one to have it for reinstallation purposes if ever needed.
This might be of some interest to you at this time: Life After MobileMe.

My Email has frozen. I'm unable to close Email so I'm unable to reboot the computer. I'm a fairly new Mac user. What have I done wrong? And how do I resolve the issue? thanks, Sharon

Force quit. cmd-option-esc key combo. Then choose Mail and force quit in the window that presents itself.

I'm a new mac user and need to program future email's. How can I do that? in outlook I can make a change in the date that the email will be sent. How I do that in mail?

Hello guys..does anybody know how to install and use adobe master collection with the new lion?
I need to use Flash and illustratore, but apparently those programmes are incompatible with the new operative sistem...
I am a new mac users and I'd like to know if there are other similar programmes I can use with lion!

well dude I can only let you know that as I work with those programme I don't have to pay for it is my company that pays the programme I whant to use( that's why I was asking if there where other programmes ..that I could use with lion insted that Illustrator and Flash!)..I know Adobe since 2005 and I can say that Adobs products are very good...I think that if it's an Adobe probleme or fault ..they will solve it very soon...but unfortunally I have the impression that after Jobs passed away Appel decided to change politics..and everything started to go very bad! (see FCP X)..
good luck with apple dude..
Where is the Apple problem? I have CS4 and CS5 running perfectly fine on my Macbook Pro. Installed 5 after Lion upgrade. Worth every cent. Adobe did have some catching up to do with Lion but with the CS5.5 update all runs fine. But not yours. So it is a problem with the Lion OS? You say you have been with Adobe since 2005. So you would be aware of all the other issues that Adobe had catching up with past Oss in Mac and Windows then. They get it right, but it is up to them. It is not up to Apple, nor Microsoft for that matter, to run around and check that every software developer in the world is running their business properly.
And what has politics got to do with anything. Some people just have to blame Software for their poor Hardware maintainence of failure of the same.
<The only think I can really do is to go back on my old windows...give back this orrible lap top and ask for my money back!>
Great suggestion. You should go with that one, but good luck getting a refund.

I'm a new mac user. My photos transferred over from PC w/Adobe Elements to Imac with IPhoto and they're a complete disorganized mess!!!!! HELP!

I'm a new mac user. I just had my 8,000 photos that I managed on my old PC using Elements transferred to new Mac. Now half my photos are completely disorganized and jumbled together out of order in one big Iphoto album, when they used to be arranged in folders by date. I could see this taking hours and hours of reviewing and organizing, picture by picture.
What is the most expedient solution to this problem? I'm open to using Iphoto, Aperture, and perhaps even Lightroom to organize my pics but would like to avoid Elements since I read new organizers stink.
P.S. I would love a 'Sort' function by date to keep them in order, (much more useful to me than categorizing by faces and places), however I can't seem to find a program that offers this, which makes no sense to me.
Thanks,
Angela

View Menu -> Sort Photos -> By Date?
If you want to duplicate your Folder Tree in iPhoto:
Start at the bottom of the hierarchy and drag a folder of images to the Album Heading in iPhoto. The pics will be imported and an Album of the same name created.
You can then create the Enclosing Folders in the iPhoto Window (File -> New Folder) and drag the Album to it. Folders can contain other Folders (Nested Folders) and Albums.
However, is your folder system date based? Then this form of organisation is a bit pointless in iPhoto when Smart Albums or the Calendar tool (Click on the wee magnifying glass in the Search Box) mean you can find the photos taken on any day, month or year at a click. With Smart Albums it's easy to find photos from specific range - say, June 3 to August 25, 2009 etc.
If your folder system is theme based - Xmas pics, Birthday pics etc, then you'll find Keywords are much more flexible, and can be used in conjunction with other criteria for making Smart Albums and searches.

New Mac user-External Hard Drive question...

Just purchased my 1st Mac/the new Mac mini. Arrived today & am very impressed.
Set-up, right out of the box, was incredibly SIMPLE and I cant believe what a little dynamo this thing is! I've thought about 'switching' to a Mac from PC for quite a while, but was always a little nervous, so I've patiently watched & waited from the sidelines- until now - and it was well worth the wait.
My 'question' is, can anyone recommend a good external hard drive I can use interchangeably between my PC & my new Mini? Still using the PC until I get completely acclimated with Mac platform/etc - I'd like something with at least
1TB storage. Thanks!

Time Machine requires an external hard drive
You can back up by other means to CDs or DVDs
If you are a .MAC customer you get a decent backup program that backs up to your iDisk and/or to CD-DVD
You would NOT want to back up to your internal drive since that would accomplish nothing - a dead or messed up HD is no good for either the beginning part of the other part where the backup is
