Mac doesnt accept apps other than the app store

So after i got my new macbook pro, i been having multiple problems installing software. its notorious for me that you guys want to monopolize the market and at the same time make more money. so my next problem on the infinite list of problems is that i want to install filezilla which is the ftp client i always use and now the awesome mavericks tells me its from an unknown developer and doesnt let me run the software. this is really getting on my nerves. whay do i do now? pay 33 dollars for a ft client on the app store? why? why cant i get filezilla? why do i have to pay for something i can get it for free? mountain lion is discontinued from the app store so again, i imagine those milloins of people that got the system to later find out you are giving away maverick for free. and i cant even download it because it dissapeared. at this point i am disgusted with apple. i been a customer for over 30 years and i spent more than 40 thousand dollars with computers and laptos and i find this a big disrespect!!!

That's caused by Gatekeeper > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5290 To open your apps, simply right-click them and select Open. You only have to do this the first time you open them.
Another option would be to go to System Preferences > Security and Privacy > General, and choose “Anywhere” under “Allow applications downloaded from”. This is the fastest way to do it

HT204266 how can I buy from itunes other than the USA store?

Is it possible to open an account at a store located in a country in which you do not have a credit card?

Yes, I do have a payment method valid in that country (which is my usa credit card, accepted in that country), but what do you mean "to be in that country"? do i need to open a different account?

MacBook Pro freezes when using any app other than the web browser.

My MacBook freezes when using any app other than the web browser. I can open up Google Chrome and use it all day with no problem, but if I minimize it and try to browse through photos in my picture folder or do anything that involves the Finder, the computer just freezes up and I get the rainbow wheel. If I put in a CD to play it, the computer freezes with the rainbow wheel. Any suggestions? I would like to use the mac for more things than the internet.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Can CC apps be downloaded to, and run from, a hard drive other than the OS drive?

Can CC apps be downloaded to, and run from, a hard drive other than the OS drive?

Yes. You can define alternate locations in teh application manager. just be aware that some components will always end up on your system root drive no matter what.

Hi I am wondering if anyone can help me. I have two albums in my photos app other than the camera roll that i cant seem to get rid of. They contain duplicates of the photos i already have in my camera roll and its using alot of space.how do i delete them?

Hi I am wondering if anyone can help me. I have two albums in my photos app other than the camera roll that i cant seem to get rid of. They contain duplicates of the photos i already have in my camera roll. One is called Photo Library, and the other is called iphone. It's using alot of space and I don't know how to delete them. Please HELP!!

those are photos that have been synced to your phone from your computer. plug in your phone to your computer, open itunes, select 'photos' tab from the top, and uncheck 'sync photos'
this will erase the photos from your phone that are not in the camera roll

I have a number of old 3.5 floppy that i'd like to convert to a format that can be read by my iMAC. These are all Word documents for MAC that are as old as 20 years. Do you have suggestions other than the conversion services that are rather costly?

I have a number of old 3.5 floppy that i'd like to convert to a format that can be read by my iMAC. These are all Word documents for MAC that are as old as 20 years. Do you have suggestions other than the conversion services that are rather costly?

I don't think any conversions are needed, just get yourself an external USB 3.5" floppy drive and drag the documents onto your iMac's HD. You should be able to locate one on Ebay or maybe even Amazon. To open them you will need something that reads .doc files like Pages, MS Word for Mac etc..

How do I assign a file to a drive other than the drive that contains my program software?

I've just installed a video editing program on my new Mac Pro Xeon 64 bit workstation. I want to ensure that all my media files reside on a drive other than the drive that contains programs. I had no problem doing this on my old Dell. How do I do this on my Mac Pro? -- Gary

Application Preferences.
Next time, 'what' program would also help.
Most people do setup with a dedicated boot drive with OS and apps, .then use other drives or array(s) for media, scratch as needed, including external hardware RAID.

When in mail, i would like to move emails to different folders other than the inbox, sent and trash can a folder be created?

When in mail i would like to move my emails to a different folder on mail account other than the inbox, sent and trash options, can i create a new folder?

The suggestion above is for MailBoxes on the Mac in the mail app and have nothing at all to do with the iPad. I think that you are asking about the iPad mail app.
You need to have an IMAP email account in order to create additional mailboxes on the iPad.
If you go to your email account in the Mail app and look at the window where your inbox, trash folder and sent folder are - if there is an Edit button at the top of the window - tap that and then tap Add Mailbox at the bottom.
If the Edit button is not there - you cannot create folders on the iPad. Your email account is not IMAP. Only IMAP email accounts can create folders on the iPad. Any folders that you would already have in an IMAP account would sync to the device as well.

How to upgrade to something other than the most recent OS

I am currently running Os 10.6.8. I would like to update, but I have a critical application that is only qualified for 10.8.2 and the current operating system is 10.8.4. Is there a way to buy something other than the current OS?

Apple updates the OS X installer at the Mac App Store with the latest version, and older OS X versions disappear. If you want to upgrade to Mountain Lion and you purchase Mountain Lion at the App Store, you will get the OS X Mountain Lion installer with 10.8.4 installed, so it will install 10.8.4, without any possibility to install 10.8.2.
You can try changing system files to look like you are using 10.8.1 and try applying the 10.8.2 update, but doing this you may damage OS X Mountain Lion

TS3297 iTunes puts up a message "The item you've requested is not currently available in the Hong Kong Store." I had not requested anything from the HK store at that point, and I have never used any store other than the HK one. How I can clear that messag

I've been running iTunes on WinXP for years with few problems. I have all my iTunes files on an external USB drive. I just bought a new PC running Win7, 64-bit.
I connected the external USB drive to the new PC and installed 64-bit iTunes on it. When iTunes started up, I pointed it at the iTunes directory in the external drive, using Edit > Preferences > Advanced > iTunes Media Folder Location. It showed a progress bar that it was updating the iTunes Library. I signed in and authorized the new machine. I have one spare authorization.
Then iTunes put up a message "The item you've requested is not currently available in the Hong Kong Store." I had not requested anything from the HK store at that point, and I have never used any store other than the HK one.
When I click OK, the iTunes Store page remains blank, apart from saying "iTunes Store" in the middle of the page.
I went to "View My Account" and pressed the Reset button to "Reset all warnings for buying and downloading items", but that doesn’t fix this particular warning. I also tried Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Reset Warnings and Rest Cache.
But still, every time I click the “App Store” button in the iTunes Store window, the message appears. If I click the Books, Podcasts or iTunesU buttons, these display normally. So I’m stuck with being unable to purchase apps, other than through my iPad and iPhone.
If I move the external drive back to the XP machine, the same thing happens. If I go to another PC - a notebook running Vista - everything is normal.
Any idea how I can clear that message?
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Further info on my question above.
I have tried re-validating my credit card, which apparently fixed it for some.
I have also tried uninstalling, re-downloading and installing again.
Neither of these steps fixed the problem.

How to install PS CC to a SSD other than the boot or "C" SSD.

I want to install PS CC, Bridge CC, and Lr CC to a SSD other than the boot or "C" SSD.
How to do that?
Problem is, CC Set-Up automatically installs these apps to my boot or "C" SSD.

I signed-out of PS; and deleted PS, Bridge, Lr, and Creative Cloud. The, when I download (i.e., saved) Creative Cloud Setup to my "A" drive SSD, then double click to install Creative Cloud, "it" automatically installs the Creative Cloud app to my "C" SSD.
The app does not ask where I want to install Creative Cloud.
I keep looking for an opportunity to "change the default install location" but I do not see such an opportunity.
Previously, when I installed PS there was no opportunity to "change the default install location."
Can you tell me how to find or force an opportunity to "change the default install location?"
Where or how do I find "the CC app settings?"
Does Abode have a manual install version for Creative Cloud, PS, Bridge, and Lr?
FYI, my OS is Win 7 pro 64 bit.
Also, why does Adobe automatically install a 32bit version of PS on my system?
Can I prevent that?

Does Lion support having the applications folder and the User folders on a separate disk (other than the startup disk)?

Is it possible to Install Lion while having the Application Folder and/or the User Folder on separate drives (other than the startup disk) Leopard didn't really support this as it would have errors with e-mail and other services that where not stored directly on the startup disk.

It's possible, but don't put the Applications folder elsewhere, and keep at least a miminal Admin account on your startup drive (so you can still log on to do troubleshooting, etc., if there's a problem with the other drive).
Many apps are expected to be in the Applications folder on the OSX drive; they may not work on a different drive and/or may not be found or updated when updates are available. Apple and Adobe apps, especially, are subject to this. Don't put them in folders, either, as similar things may happen.
Besides, apps don't take up much space anyway, it's the data that may.
It's often better to keep the home folders on the OSX drive, but put large data folders on a separate drive, such as iPhoto, iTunes, or large video collections.

Have a LaCie external 2big RAID drive; two 1T drives in RAID 0 configuration (striped). Drive works perfectly as one big 2T external disk but Mac Installer (Lion - App Store download

Have a LaCie external 2big RAID drive; two 1T drives in RAID 0 configuration (striped). Drive works perfectly as one big 2T external disk but Mac Installer (Lion - App Store download & Snow Leopard DVD) refuse to install OS X Lion or OS X Snow Leopard on RAID drive.
Previous RAID - two 500g's in RAID 0 had SnowLeopard/Lion installed and worked just fine as bootable drive.
Help!

Keep in mind a RAID 1 only protects you from hardware failure of one of the drives. It does not protect you if the hardware raid/chip set decides to take a vacation. Also, if FCP corrupts a file, it is written as corrupt to both drives.
I'm a big fan of separate but equal. Two drives. One goes to the site, the other remains at the hotel. At night, you back up the site disk to the the hotel disk. If something happens to the computer and the disk at the site the next day, you at least have the material back at the hotel.
eggs. baskets. that sort of thing.
good luck.
