I would really find a draw application "iDraw" maybe, very useful to create diagrams and overlays on photographs. Is Apple likely to add a module to ilife or iWorks? Failing that, can anyone suggest a freeware, or shareware app?  I recall an app some years ago,Studio8 ?  It would be really useful for work and home use. regards,alan b

Describe exactlhy what you want to do with photos?  There are some apps, like Pages, that can add text and graphics over photos.  Describe what you are wanting to do or post an example from somewhere else and we may be able to suggest an app.

  • Can anyone suggest a reliable dvd burning app for a mac book pro without the idvd app

    I recently purchased a Mac Book Pro and find that it has,nt a facility to burn home movies fro imovie. After contacting apple they tell me to purchase a third party dvd burning app, After a little research on the app,s available from the app store the reviews are not good. Has anyone found a reliable app that will do the job,.

    Toast is exellent but is no substitute for iDVD - but then nothing really is.
    Why is there no iDVD on my new Mac? How do I get it and how do I install it?

  • Can anyone suggest an international GPS nav app that offers map and POI downloads for offline access and route search?

    I'm going to be in the UK with an American phone, don't expect mobile data, and I'd like to use this app instead of the £30 up charge for a rental GPS... I've seen the free Navfree and the cheap as free MotionX Drive, but have read Navfree has some spotty routing and MotionX won't allow regional (or even whole city, ftm) map downloads.

    At $90 for the UK maps this is a too pricey for the use case. In case it wasn't clear, I'm visiting the UK short term so I shouldn't spend more than the £30 to hire a GPS nav system.
    Thanks for the suggestion! Any other ideas?

  • Can anyone suggest a good external DVD-ROM drive?

    My DVD/CD drive in my Mac Mini has given out, and i'd rather just get a good external drive than pay to have mine replaced. Can anyone suggest a good one that they know is compatible with Apple products?
    Mac Mini   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Amazon has the following Memorex external burner with usb2 and firewire for a bit under $100:
    Memorex 32023288 DVD Double-Layer Recorder 16x16 Dual Format External Drive
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0007OWASE/
    Reviewer: "yankee_doctor" on Amazon says --
    I am very pleased with the performance of this machine. I bought it to add dual layer dvd's and 16x burning to my aging Powermac G5 from Apple. It has worked perfectly for me and makes DVD's in about 3 minutes. A very nice touch. As a side note, I am a world traveler and I am planning on moving to London at the start of next year. I was afraid that it would not be able to go with me. But I contacted Memorex and it already is wired to work in the U.S. and Europe. That was a nice surprise. Buy this product, you will not be disappointed.
    I can't vouch for it myself, but it might be worth googling for reviews of it.

  • Hi. I have a MacBook Pro with OS10.6.8 and cannot get net pages to load on my network at home. I can connect to the internet in work and on other networks. However, some other networks are now starting to fail. Can anyone suggets how I can fix it??

    Hi. I have a MacBook Pro with OS10.6.8 and cannot get internet pages to load on my WiFi network at home. My iMac, iPhone and iPad all work on this network.  It is connected to the net as dropbox registers a connection and so does skype. I can connect to the WiFi in work and on other networks when travelling. However, some other networks are now starting to fail. Can anyone suggets how I can fix it, as the MBP appears to be fine, its updated with all the latest versions of software and the WiFi network is also fine....just not with my MBP??

  • I have a mac OS X 10.4.11 and have created a website in iweb08  ... in order to get it to my host site for it to go live I am having difficulty finding a ftp client to get me there. Can anyone suggest what I should do?

    I have a mac OS X 10.4.11 and have created a website in iweb08  ... in order to get it to my host site for it to go live I am having difficulty finding a ftp client to get me there. Can anyone suggest what I should do?

    Check if any of the below have an older version by contacting the author for your 10.4.11:
    http://www.rbrowser.com/
    http://rsug.itd.umich.edu/software/fugu
    http://cyberduck.io/

    Or use Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal to do command line FTP:

    Upgrading to 10.6.8 should still give you mostly the same compatibility as 10.4.11. Upgrading to 10.7 and above won't.

  • Can anyone suggest an app to download for SMS messaging for iphone 3G as the message application factory installed is pretty useless and doesnt keep your sent messages in a sent folder

    Can anyone suggest an app to download for SMS messaging for iphone 3G as the message application factory installed is pretty useless and doesnt keep your sent messages in a sent folde and has no folders unlike most messaging features on other phones.
    Many thanks
    Mark

    Why do you need a Sent folder?  iOS's Messaging interface lays each conversation out like a chat or IM.  Personally, I find that much more convenient.

  • My iPad was logging me out so I have reset it - I cannot log into iCloud now and also my login for app updates defaults to an incorrect email address can anyone suggest how to re configure

    My iPad was logging me out so I have reset it - it retained all apps but I cannot now log into iCloud and when downloading apps it defaults to the wrong email details so the iPad doesn't recognise it to update - can anyone suggest how to resolve this

    Have you attempted to access your Apple ID through iforgot.apple.com ?
    If you have access to the internet, you should be able to go through the process of resetting your Apple ID password via security questions or email.
    Assuming that you use the same Apple ID for iCloud and the iTunes/App Stores, resetting your password may help you log back into iCloud and the iTunes/App Stores.

  • I stream Internet radio from my iPad air to Bluetooth speaker.  Can anyone suggest the best EQ app to use to enhance the sound.  Thanks

    I stream Internet raidiot from iPad air to Bluetooth speakers.  Can anyone suggest the best EQ app to use to enhance the sound.
    THanks

    Yeah, I know I can restore it, but I might as well go ahead and try. I just finished a backup for icloud and itunes to make sure, I'll go ahead and restore it and set it up as new and see how that works. Seems like I have no other options at this point, I'd still like to know what they did with the Download tab in itunes store, if they removed it or if I'm just overlooking it.

  • Can anyone suggest useful software apps to have installed on my macBook to use with my 4th grade special education students?

    Can anyone suggest useful software apps to have installed on my macBook to use with my 4th grade special education students?

    Apps to do what with??
    Good place to look for software:
    http://www.macupdate.com/
    And for free alternatives to some popular software packages:
    http://alternativeto.net/
    (If you see an ad there for something called MacKeeper, ignore it and on no account install it - it is malware.)
    And there is of course also the App Store!

  • Can anyone suggest a app or programme for creating a simple text based logo with a font I already own?

    Hi.
    I run my own company and would like to create my own simple text based logo using a font I've downloaded. Can anyone suggest an app or programme that will be simple enough for a dunce like me to create vectored graphics and reliable enough to create something professional and usable, please?
    Thanks.

    I believe if you copy the font into the font folder, any application should be able to use that font.

  • Can anyone suggest a simple system for backing up my MacBook?

    I have a MacBook 120G which runs Tiger. I also have an Aiport Extreme, which is connected to a printer via USB. I want to buy an external hard drive to create a safety back up of my whole system. I have been trawling the suppliers' websites, getting more and more confused. Can anyone suggest the simplest solution for a simple-minded user like me? These are my main confusions:
    a) Can anyone suggest what type / make of hard drive I should buy in order to be able to store my computer's contents and re-boot it in the event of disaster? Will a non-powered hard drive do the job or is it somehow better to get a powered one? It would sit near my desk so I am keen to avoid fan noise if at all possible! I believe I'll need to 'partition' the drive in order to make it bootable, or something - if this is correct, what kind of hard drive is easiest and idiotproof for this?
    b) I think I've concluded it's not worth binning my Airport Extreme and replacing it with a Time Capsule. But is it worth buying Leopard in order to get Time Machine? I believe I can still use the Airport Extreme to connect to the hard drive so that Time Machine would make backups regularly and wirelessly? If so, do I need to use a USB hub from the Airport Extreme so that I can still keep the printer connected? I can only find one HD which has a built in hub - the Iomega Minimax - but I have read reviews saying the fan is noisy. Any other suggestions?
    Any help and suggestions about this would be very gratefully received. Many thanks
    Steve

    Leopard is a nice upgrade (if your computer has 2GB of memory) and TimeMachine is convenient but it isn't the only way to create a reliable and simple backup system. If you decide TM is your solution buy a drive that has 2 to 3 times as much space as you are using on your computer now. If you are using 80GB of your drive now, buy a 160GB to 240GB drive for TimeMachine. It keeps multiple backups and eats up drive space pretty quickly.
    Lots of good backup programs exist but the one I really like is called SuperDuper! It will create an exact duplicate of your hard drive and you can set up a schedule so that automatically backs up new and modified files at specific times/days. With my MacBook I connect it to my external drive on Friday evening and let SuperDuper! do its work overnight. If you chose this router or another that doesn't use TimeMachine, get a drive at least as large as your computer's hard drive.
    The Western Digital MyBook series is a good choice and so is the Seagate FreeAgent series. I'd avoid self powered external drives like Western Digital's Passport series unless you intend to travel with the drive. They require special proprietary cables to power the drive which are easy to lose and expensive to replace, among other things. If you can afford a firewire drive that's generally preferable because firewire is faster than USB but the speed difference isn't blazing. If you do you backing up over night speed won't be an issue.
    Whether you use TimeMachine or another program, this is just once phase of a backup plan. If you experience a break-in, fire, or flood the backup drive is probably going to experience the same fate as your computer. You also need to think about taking a backup of your most important files off-site. This can be as simple as once a month burning a DVD of your documents, digital photos, and email to a DVD and taking it to work.

  • Can anyone suggest a windows XP emulator that runs on OS 10.6 on my iMac?

    It would seem a simple request but I cannot find, and maybe it is me being a Mac-dufus, an emulator, that runs on my mac, such that I can run a 32 bit windows XP software application.   
    Can anyone suggest a solution?  thanks

    Sincerely, thanks for the amazingly quick reply/post.
    FYI - VMware fusion only works with 10.7 and higher, Virtualbox is clunky and I think you need a compute science degree to operate it.
    New virtual machine when I tried to ijnstall the trail version offers a migrate from PC or install windows from a DVD or image.......and I don't ewant to do that, I just want to run an emulator, install 2 XP 32 bit applications and be able to run them in the emulator is all.    AM I missing something?   thanks again for any help in advance

  • I'm travelling and trying to back up my new iPhone to iCloud. I have sufficient storage, am connected to wifi and it's plugged into a power source and yet it doesn't seem to work. Can anyone suggest what I'm doing wrong?

    I'm travelling and trying to back up my new iPhone to iCloud. I have sufficient storage, am connected to wifi and it's plugged into a power source and yet it doesn't seem to work at all. I'm currently in India. Could that be the cause or can anyone suggest any reason why this wouldn't work?

    "gets stuck" - are there any error messages?
    If you get the error "Backup not successful" and you've tried deleting the last backup and trying to back up manually without luck, try the following test:   Go to...
    Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>manage Storage, tap your device name in the Backups section, then look under Backup options.  Turn off all apps from backup and then do a manual backup.  If that doesn't work, then this post will not help.  If the backup works, then go back to the app list and turn some on and try another backup.  If successful, keep repeating these steps.  If it fails at some point, then try to zero in on the one app that seems to make the backup fail.  (I had this problem and found one app failing, probably due to a corrupt data file.)
    This process will take time, but if a backup works with no app data being used but clearly fails with the original settings, then somewhere in the mix of apps is a "bad" one.
