You can authorise your account on the Mac's iTunes via the Store > Authorise This Computer drop-down menu at the top of iTunes e.g. :
If you still have your PC then you could also copy the content over from that : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527

I keep getting the message: "what should firefox do with this file" in Windows XP every time I want to download a file, e.g., adobe, excel, etc. How can this annoying message be deleted? The check box to "open file automatically" does not work!

cor-el,
Thanks for your prompt reply. However, the sources you gave do not seem to apply exactly to my situation. I have attached some screenshots that show what the dialogue box looks like for a pdf download, and what my settings in the Apps panel of Options are. You will note in the first screenshot that I have checked the box to handle this file type automatically; however, the next time I try to download a file of that type, the same dialogue box appears looking exactly like the one shown, so checking the "automatic" option appears to do nothing. The files to be downloaded from my Gmail messages are not generic or altered file types - they are shown as pdf, doc, docx, etc. So while your intent was good, your post did not help. Thanks anyway.

The firefox wants to download a file every time i open it, even by opening a new tab, it wants to download the file,

To whom it may concern

http://kb.mozillazine.org/File_types_and_download_actions

Easiest on Mac OS X 10.7 is to use this button:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
In Mac OS X v10.7, the $HOME/Library folder is a hidden folder.
Open Finder and use one of these:
* Go > Go To Folder (Shift-Command-G) and in the dialog type: ~/Library
* Open the "Go" menu and hold down the Option key to make the Library appear
You can also use this command in a Terminal window to remove the hidden flag.
* Mac HD > Applications > Utilities > Terminal
* chflags nohidden ~/Library

Both my husband and I have our Macs backed up on Time Machine. I have a new Mac and want to download my files,etc. from Timeline to my new Mac. How do I ensure that Time Machine downloads only MY files, and not my husband's files?

OS X uses a unique identifier so there will be no problems.

HI krishbiliyar,
Where did you download the file from? Does the file have PDF filename extension? And where are you getting the message that it's not a PDF file? In Reader or Acrobat?
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Best,
Sara

I bought CS6 last year and want to download it onto my new computer, but I cannot locate the serial number ?

Moving this discussion to the Downloading, Installing, Setting Up forum.

Just downloaded newest version 3.26.11 and it won't even open coldwater creek for me to shop! It wants to download some file that can't be opened! I had to switch over to iexplorer...is this going to be fixed????

I haven't used the browser extensively yet, however it shouldn't try to download from a click within an email instead of taking you to a business website! I even tried to just type the web address into the browser and it still wanted to just download the file of some weird type...don't know what to do except go back to ie which I don't like!!! Also, the new version of Firefox wouldn't connect into my AVG which is my firewall/email scanner/etc so I'm hanging out there unprotected anyway, so what's different that ie in that? Nothing.

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Quit and relaunch Mail, and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Just bought the new iPad and want to download my files backed up previously in iCloud by my old iPad. Have my iCloud Backup option switeched on but no luck. Thus my files are stuck in iCloud. Any advice appreciated?

Just bought the new iPad (3rd generation) and want to download files backed up previously in iCloud by my old iPad 2. Have my iCloud Backup option switched on on the new iPad but no luck in transferring the files. So my files are stuck in iCloud. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

If you have already set up the iPad and activated it - You have to restore from the iCloud backup which entails totally erasing the device and then setting it up again from the iCloud backup.

if you already tried this, then post back with the exact procdure that you followed.

Want to download a file without using adobe

I opened a file that I guess shouldnt have been opened when downloading and now every time I try to download it automatically saves as adobe and when I called the company they said not to. So how can I stop it from being opened or saved as adobe?

What is your operating system? Download from where: a website? Using what browser?
Then: what kind of file? What means "saved as adobe"?
Have you tried to just download the file normally, without opening it "in adobe" (whatever that means) ?

HELP! I got a new iPhone and want to download my music from my computer so I don't have to down load song by song on my phone. iTunes Match won't let me copy it from my computer. What do I do?

I have iTunes Match and it's been fine until now. I'm trying to download my music to my phone so I don't have to use the wifi to play it all the time.....but iTunes match won't let me copy from my computer without shutting it off. If I do that then turn it back on then I lose all the music anyway.
I'm so frustrated and can't download song by song to my phone.
help.

If you mean you want to sync your music from your computer to your iPhone you need to disable iTunes Match on the iPhone. Go to Settings > Music and set to iTunes Match to OFF (not green). You may need to wait a few minutes for the change to register with iTunes. Connect the iPhone via USB/Thunderbolt and sync the music.

[Solved]I just want to transfer some files from one computer to ano...

Setup:
Windows LAN (setup by my dad)
One Arch Linux Box, hardwired and connected through the network without problems.
One Ubuntu Linux Laptop, connected wirelessly.
I want to transfer my music, schoolwork, ect, onto my desktop from my laptop. Both machines are part of the same LAN. I want to transfer those files over the network (because I lack a usb drive larger than 1 GB). I know you can do this via rsync, ssh, sftp, samba, ect. But I happen to [censored] hate doing stuff with any network of any sort. I sort of understand networking, but I need some help, because all the millions of guides about doing this on the internet seem not to work, no matter what I try to do.
I can ping each machine through the other one, and I know both of their host names (I have both of them in front of me, actually.). The Ubuntu machine can see the entire network (through Nautilus, it appears), but cannot see my Arch Linux Box. I'd imagine I could see the entirety of the network on my Arch Computer if I knew how (going to ///:Network on PCmanFM gives me nothing). Both machines can connect to the internet without problems.
Can someone help me out? (I know, there are plenty of guides through Google and the Arch Wiki, I don't really understand them well enough)
I don't care if you use a specific method, any will do. I can provide any additional information to you if you just ask.

Okay guys, so I apologise about taking so long to get back on this topic...I was at a summer camp all week and did not have access to my computer.

HT201250 I'm using Time Machine. Its Full. Deleting older backups as it goes. My desktop Mini is full. I want to delete all files on my computer. How will this affect Time Machine?

I'm really wanting to make room on my Mac Mini. I have about 70 gb left. I'm not sure what to do. I'm using Time Machine to regularly backup my computer and its already full and deleting older backups. I used to, in the past before Time Machine, just drag and drop files into an external hard drive and empty the file from my computer. Should I follow a similar procedure here? If I have time machine backup up, and I remove all my files from the computer, will Time Machine begin to backup a "clean" machine onto the external drive and begin deleting past backups? What would be the best way to approach my backups, remove all my files from my computer since a variation of them are already on time machine, and not lose viable backups? Thank you.

If you erase the hard disk and you install a new Mac OS X copy, Time Machine will start a new backup and will stop using all backups you made in the past.
One option you have is to reinstall Mac OS X and restore a Time Machine backup, but restoring only some files: for example, instead of restoring everything, restore only your user files, and not your applications, so you will have more free space. Also, doing this, Time Machine will continue backing up to your old backup, because Time Machine will detect that you have "the same computer with the same files and the same Mac OS X version", but it's not.
If you have more questions about Time Machine, see this site > http://pondini.org

When companies ask to download their stuff on to my computer using the Adobe name how do I know if it would be harmful or not?
I have had several do this lately (when I am playing a game online specifically) and it is very difficult to click "Refuse" so in the end I click "Allow" and it disappears.
