I'm finding this mac lap top more of a headache than anything.

I wanted to type out a resume but i didn't have the application to create or edit it. I did have a trial app that expired, a while back, so i just purchased it, but now it says theres a problem and it won't let me print or save. Such a pain in the butt I see two icons of the same app. One must be the expired one and the other the newly purchased. I also see that it has two other options to add, keynote and numbers, but i don't need them. Am I not being able to print because I won't purchase the other two? why do they make this so hard?

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
No you are not being prevented from printing because you have not bought the other two apps in the iWork suite. You have made an error that many folks have made with the trial version. You should delete the trial version before you buy and install the paid version.
If you have purchased the paid version through the Mac App Store, then you can redownload the app by signing into your account and going to the Purchases pane. So I suggest that you delete both versions of the app that are installed right now on your Mac. After both versions are gone you can download the app again and you should not have any conflicts occurring.
The best way to delete them both and get all of their associated files is with an app delete app. AppCleaner is a free one that does as good a job as the paid ones. Just drag the icons of the apps that you wish deleted onto AppCleaner and it will locate the associated files and present them to you for your approval to delete.

Hello:
Thank you for the update for remote access for desktops.
Personally, I do not want to give remote access to anyone but myself as privacy is my friend. Can this remote desktop software still be for me personally unless I allow access and for my MAC lap top only? What if I do not update? I do use this lap top in other countries. compatibility issues with what?

Apple Remote Desktop is off be default. It has to be enabled for some one to be able to remotely connect to the computer. And then, you still have to have a user name and password on the computer to remotely connect with.
If you want to see if remote access has is enabled for Apple Remote Desktop; you can find the setting in, Apple Menu, System Prefrences, Sharing. If it's enabled, Remote Management or Screen Sharing will be checked.
Beucase Apple Remote Desktop Agent is part of the Mac Operating System; even if your not using it, Apple Software Updates will from time to time offer updates for ARD Agent. Software Updates can some times be stacked ontop of each other; so chosing not to install an update, can mean other updates you may want may not be offered. At least until you install the updates those updates require. Also software updates can improve the security of your computer.

My iphone 4s and ipad 2 both with 7.0.4 update will no longer connect to wifi but non-mac lap top has no issues

my iphone 4s and ipad2 both with 7.0.4 update will no longer connect to wifi.
About three days ago the ability to connect came and went and the connection never lasted more than 10-15 minutes; it has not been able to connect since last night. I do not think it's my wifi router as non-mac lap top has no issues. I have seem many similar questions posted.

Reboot your router by removing all power from it for about 15 seconds. Also, if your router still has its default SSID (such as LINKSYS, DLINK, NETGEAR, etc) change the SSID to something unique. Note that all other devices on your network will have to be reconnected if you change the name, but if the name is still the default that is most likely your problem.
If the SSID is not the default then the reboot should fix it.

I have upgraded my MacBook Pro 15 late 2011 to 8Gb RAM, now when I go to about this mac in it more info it doesn't show AMD graphics card as it used to before, it just show Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB is that a problem that I need to worry about?

and in system report >> hardware >> Graphics/Display >> it shows both grafics card listed.

Some Mac's when the RAM is increased the Intel HD 3000 integrated graphics will bump itself up to the higher video RAM it takes, this seems to be what occured.
It also means the dedicated graphics card will be used less, but only so slightly less.
You obviously still should have both, you can test this by turning off Graphics Switching in Energy Saver, that will use the decicated AMD card all the time.
You can also run Cinebench and compare the scores here

some one told me that it can mess things up and that I should be carefull with using it thanks again

It doesn't seem to be as sharp as it is in the "Develop" mode. This seems to occur more with wide angle than macro. Any suggestions would be extremely welcome...Norm

Here's my problem: (Lightroom 4) I will edit a photo in "Develop" to the point where it looks great and I'm satisfied with the results. Then I click back to "Library" and the photo seems to go a little out of focus. When I export the photo, it doesn't seem to be as sharp as it is in "Develop" mode. This seems to occur more with wide angle than macro. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Norm

Okay guys, some good news!
First of all, thanks again to Sean for his suggestion to look inside the transaction log!
Indeed that specific table that I noticed was filling the transaction log, is the largest table in my database. Its size stands at about ~65GB. Like I said earlier, it has no LOB or Overflow columns. But one interesting fact about it is - it had absolutely
no indexes! It was a heap, but it was also partitioned. I didn't know a case like this could cause such problems with shrink? It's weird but it also kinda makes sense in a way.
Anyways, I ran a script to create a partitioned clustered index on that table. That took pretty much all day long due to the table size (almost 7 hours). But once that was finished, shrinking the data file was a breeze!
At least... Until the shrink started "hanging" again because now it started dealing with my
second largest table (~55GB). Like the first one, this one is also a partitioned
heap without any indexes. So I expected this to happen. I guess the solution this time will be the same: Create a clustered index.
Does this make sense to you? A partitioned heap table causing such heavy workload to SHRINK, but when it's moved to a clustered index, suddenly it flies?

How to transfer I tunes from old windows lap top to new Mac lap top

How do you transfer your i tunes account from an old windows lap top to your new Mac?

Drag and drop copy the iTunes folder to a external hard drive on Windows, then take it to the Mac and use iTunes there to import it.
If you want to read/write the external drive between Mac's and PC's, right click on the drive and format it exFAT or FAT in Windows, not NTFS.
Some Mac's can read NTFS, but not write to that format as it's proprietary.
When you format the drive, all data will be erased on it, so make sure before you do so.

Mac Pro takes more time to boot than average

Okay, well my Mac Pro (2008) takes anything between 40 and 48 seconds to boot (that's the time between pressing the power button and seeing the desktop with mouse movement). Being a long-time PC user, this boot time is MUCH faster than anything I've used before, but apparently it's longer than it should be. I was recently in a forum where most Mac Pro users had boot times of anything between 25 and 35 seconds.
As for hardware, I have no peripherals plugged in (except for Apple mouse and keyboard). The major software that I've installed is the Adobe Master Collection (including programs such as Photoshop, After Effects, Encore, Premiere Pro, Illustrator, InDesign, Dreamweaver, Flash, Fireworks, VersionCue, etc.)
I've looked at my Console messages, and I've noticed that the message "kcdmond cannot retreive the computer's local Hostname, retrying..." is repeated 3 times. This repetition takes up 20 seconds. See all the Console messages during boot-up below:

18/4/08 1:01:51 PM com.apple.launchctl.System[2] BootCacheControl: could not stop cache/fetch history: Cannot allocate memory
I have a few questions based on the above:
1. What is kdcmond, and why can't it find the host name?
2. Why is the error message "Failed to check-in!" for Adobe VersionCue appearing? (I've already specified in the VersionCue settings that I do not want it to activate anything on start-up.)
3. What is "Aladdin USB daemon"?
4. What is BootCacheControl, and what is with the "cannot allocate memory" errors?

Okay, so after doing all of the above, the computer still takes between 40 seconds and 1 minute or so to boot up, and the VersionCue messages still appear. However I discovered that the "kdcmond cannot retrieve..." messages disappeared after I disabled my ethernet connections. So at least I know that that had nothing to do with the extended boot-up time.
I have heard that the more RAM you have, the longer it takes to boot due to the RAM count. Since I have 10 GB, maybe this is why?

This is more of a complaint than anything

I been waiting to upgrade for months, but i wanted to wait and see what new updates were in pla for adobe CS suite I was very excited to hear about the announcement on monday may 6. I even purchased and upgrade for my adobe director and I saw cs6 master collection was still available as a disk but I wanted to wait for monday. Monday comes around and I find out there is no more CS suite only cc for cloud subscriptions. I cannot afford cloud membership at full retail along with my minimum internet access due to monthly data caps. So I decided to buy the upgrade of cs6 master collection and then I find out that they only sell it via download only. When I asked when did this change I was just on line the other day, the rep responded just a few hrs ago.. (ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!) Im just geting out of work at 5pm not much longer after announcement and I cant even get a cd version when aske if I can escelate to management thire response was oh they will tell you the same thing. I asked what will you do with the cds you have in the wearhouse the respond was I dont know they will figure something out. I understand as a company it is better for you, but at least give some time for people to decide what they want. I know I'm only a grain of sand in a beach and my words will not reach the appropriate people but I feel your customer service needs a lot of improvement when it comes to major changes. The fact that I feel like I am not a customer but an inconvinience shows me that your customer focus is slipping especially when told no options are available after 3 hrs of an announcement along with the fact that Im here writing in a consumer forum to vent because there is no info on how to file complaints and concerns... I'm very upset and dissapointed in Adobe and you just lost a loyal customer

Hi Eric
Although we only sell the download version of CS6, we will be able to supply you with a back up DVD set as you have limited internet access.
Kind regards

I am unable to transfer my audio book from my Mac lap top to my iPhone. Can anyone help me?

I am unable to transfer my audio book from my Mac laptop to my iPhone. Can anyone help me?

Then restore from you Mac laptop's backup, if you have not been backing up then you may be in for a very painful lesson on why backing up is the VERY FIRST thing you should do with any new Mac. Create a backup plan and use it on a regular basis. If the laptop was using 10.5.x or later then you have absolutely no excuse for not backing up. Sorry for being terse and blunt but Time Machine has been built into 10.5.x, 10.6.x and 10.7.x so we have had years to have a seamless and mindless method of backing up. If you have been using an earlier verision of OS X there are quite a number of methods of backing up.
If you aren't successful then take the laptop and iMac to your local Apple Store or AASP and they may be able to help you recover your contacts.

I'm finding this mac lap top more of a headache than anything.
