I recently just got my iMac and everyother time i turn it on it slows down and sometimes is unresponsive, can anyone help?
Can anyone help? i don't understand why this happens
If you aren't already backing your computer up, you'll need an external drive at least as large as the computer's and let TimeMachine run to create the backup. You don't want to lose anything you've created.
Now read this article from Apple about how to perform an erase and OS reinstall. After this has been done you'll be asked if you want to restore your computer from a backup. Select restore from disk and choose the drive you backed up to. Then I suggest that you select only your account - that's your data - and that you reinstall your programs manually.

I need help as soon as possible.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Already syggested
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

just got an imac and I cant access my itunes. old computer was a dell, do I have to create a new apple account?
Apple does not want you to have two iTunes accounts so perhaps it would be better to cancel the account you used with your Dell and launch a new account for your nice new iMac. If you cannotmake contact with the original details go to ...
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express lane followed by iTunes > iTunes store.
From there you could negotiate the cancellation process. -

Just got an imac and am trying to transfer itunes library from dell pc using home share method. All goes well until the end when directions say to click import button. I don't see one anywhere. If I shut down itunes in the pc the library also disappears from the imac. Am I doing something wrong?

check the lower right corner of the iTunes window
if you don't see this while the homeshared library is loaded, home sharing hasn't been set up properly.

no.
that's expected behavior. -
Hi Everyone,
I just deleted PS CS6 and installed PS CC 2014. I'm trying to use the Liquify Filter and it does not work. When I click on the Liquify Filter, my photo does not appear properly. The photo appears as two flourescent color fields - bright turquoise and lime green! Can anyone help me with this? Also, does anyone know if I can re-install Photoshop CS6?
Thanks!
LaraineHi Everyone....I figured it out. Strangely, although I had NEVER used Liquify in PS CC 2014....I just realized that in Liquify Advanced Mode that the "SHOW MASK" option was on by default! I unchecked SHOW MASK. Everything is OK. Whew! Tks!

Can anyone help me- I recently had an archive operating reinstall completed at the genius bar (so they didn't have to delete my hard drive), but now my battery says "not charging." It used to hold a 2.5 hour charge, and now nothing. Can anyone help?
Hi, Michelle. Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Have you tried resetting the SMC? The SMC (System Management Controller) has control over the charging function, so resetting it may help. -

IPSec VPN brings up login box but will not connect after entering password. Have tried this on both IPAD and IPhone 4. Can anyone help?
Uggh, it's so frustrating! I've googled every search phrase I can think of and this seems to be the only thread describing this exact issue. I'm always automatically logged into Facebook on my MBP but just to be sure I logged out and back in and it worked fine.
I gotta say, I wasn't a fan of the Droid I had preceding this iPhone, and from what I hear the iPhone app for FB is a thousand times better - not that I'd know personally because I can't log in!! - but I could always access my FB account on the droid. Just sayin... -
Please, help!
After upgrading to Yosemite, my dock has disappeared, along with the dashboard and the wallpaper! Can anyone help? I'm using a MacBook Pro, retina, bought it last year.
ThanksHave you been trying to download from the app store? Did you get a message?
As a suggestion, you might go to an Apple store (genius bar appointment) for help. As far as I know, there should be no charge.

I have another account that i can't delete off my phone because lost my recovery key and password. How do i get rid of this account? it will not let me turn off find my iphone and delete account. Can anyone help?
Hello aweirandyski.1975,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From what you're describing appears to be Activation Lock, a security measure provided by Apple that makes it harder for people to use a lost or stolen device. You will need to enter the password for the Apple ID the device is prompting you for.
