Macbook hdd swap, originally bought as a tiger but now using leopard.

So I want to swap my hdd since its filling up. I bought my macbook as a tiger and upgraded it with the leopard disc. I had backup all my files to a external hard disk with time machine. I wanted to restore my data using the time machine disk instead of needing to clone the new hdd. So after swapping the hdd inside the macbook, should I put in the tiger install disk that came with the computer or put in the leopard disc I got? or what should I do?

I never had to include a disc when my mb failed, + needed new HD's. And boy did it fail

I have a early 2008 Macbook pro and just bought a new battery, but it is not holding a charge

I have a late 2008 Macbook pro and just bought a new battery, but it is not holding a charge. I read it may be the charger,
that sometimes is blank, but it does charge my computer.
Anything I can try?
I have updated to 10.9.2

Bring it back to the Apple store with your MBP and charger. If the battery is found to be defective, they should provide you with a replacement (assuming you are in the warranty period).
Ciao.

HT200260 I already bought logic pro 9 but now i have a new apple id, do i have to pay logic pro 9 again or not??

I already bought logic pro 9 but now i have a new apple id, do i have to pay logic pro 9 again or not?? Or if i save it on a disk can i re-draw it into my macbook?

You can also contact Apple directly providing proof (The original receipt) you bought it originally on a different Apple ID and under certain circumstances they will transfer the App you bought over to your new Apple ID
You will probably also need to know what the older Apple ID was, along with other information used with that account (Like the credit card used for example)
Call them and see what they say once you have all your information together...
An alternative if you are running iOS8 on any of your devices or Yosemite or Mavericks.. on a Mac, is to simply add the old Apple ID your Family Sharing account.. using your new Apple ID as the master account... then every app you bought under the old Apple ID (if it is still active) will be available to download under your new one...

I bought iphone from Canada but now I'm in Thailand and I upgraded to ios6 but I couldn't turn on wifi and back up on icloud so I want to know that how can I claim my iphone with apple care because no apple store in Thailand. Thank you.

I bought iphone from Canada but now I'm in Thailand and I already upgraded to ios6 but It doesn't work well.I couldn't turn on wifi and back up on icloud so I want to know how can I do with my iphone because no apple store in Thailand.Can I send it to any apple care which is easy and near my country? Thank you.

You can find a local shop and pay to get it fixed or you will need to send the phone to someone you know in Canada and have them take the phone into Apple for service. Then they will need to ship the phone back to you. The warranty is based in the original country of purchase.
Decide which is your best option.

I have an iPhone 5 and a PJ205 ipico Handheld LED Personal Projector for Apple iPhone 4. I bought the apple adapter but now need the app. Apple's App Store doesn't have it anymore, where can I get one?

Hi Chris.
It's asking you for my apple id password. not going to give that out, sorry.
However I did try this projector on my mother in laws iphone 4 and on my old iphone 3. ipico software isn't needed. plug and play any video through standard movie player or camera saved video.
I tried on my girls iphone 5 with the adapter. The ipico software and projector doesn't work on this phone.
Hope this helped you. Better to buy a used iphone 3 or 4 and use it for video storage.
I also found that the battery on these projectors are a joke (30-60mins max). I rigged a longer lasting battery on the outside and keep it plugged in while using. This doesn't charge the phone though so I replaced the battery in the old iphone 3 and now get at least a full length movie from it. Great in bed projected onto the ceiling.

I want to reinstall OS on my 2012 MacBook Pro. It shipped iwth 10.8, but now runs 10.9. Can I reinstall to 10.9, I do I have to reinstall 10.8 and upgrade again to 10.9?

I want to reinstall OS on my 2012 MacBook Pro. It shipped with 10.8, but now runs 10.9. Can I reinstall straight to 10.9, or do I have to reinstall 10.8 and upgrade again to 10.9?

Best to install 10.9 straight up. If you still have your OS 10.9 downloaded file you can use that, or you can go to the app store and download it again. It will be in your previous purchase history. Or you could even upgrade to 10.10. If you want to start from scratch you will need to boot from USB or DVD and initialise (erase) your internal HD. To do create a bootable USB thumb drive with OS 10.9 or 10.10 follow this guide
Create a bootable installer for OS X Mavericks or Yosemite - Apple Support
And heres a how to on installing a fresh copy of Yosemite (OS X 10.10)

Can i download facetime on my ipad mini i bought it on UAE but im using my ipad in Philippines

can i download facetime on my ipad mini i bought it on UAE but im using my ipad in Philippines

As per an agreement between Apple and the govt of the UAE, devices sold in that country don't and can't ever have Facetime on them.
If you want that program, you have to purchase an iPad outside of the countries that prohibit it.

Mac and Mac models are picky about the RAM the Mac needs to see and use.
As you have found out, the 1067 speed RAM will not work in your year and model iMac.
You need the 1333 speed RAM.
If, you can return the RAM for a refund, do it!
If not, try online Mac RAM source and seller Crucial memory. They have a table that matches your Mac to the correct and reliable RAM. You may need to contact them to see whether or not they ship to South Africa, though.
If Crucial dpesn't work out, here's the specs for your year and model iMac that you need to seek out and purchase.
Maximum Memory
32 GB (Actual) 16 GB (Apple)
Memory Slots
4 - 204-pin PC3-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
Good Luck!

I used a 3V card this is a credit card you top i used it on itunes bought a few apps but now that its after running out my itunes doesnt let me download free apps anymore and brings me to the billing info? how do i fix this

i used this card called a 3v card which is a credit card you top up everytime you top up in selected shops you are given a reciept on this dare is all the information you need like cvv codes and exipiry dats and all that everytime you purchase a reciept your issued with new details i had 20 in my account bought a item off the icarbons for 13 euro so i had 7 left i said il purchase some apps for my ipod so i entred in all the details into my ipod i sucessfully bought items but now that the card is empty everytime i try and download a free app it says billing info wrong an rings me to the billing info page how can i fix this problem ?????

Part of the validation for credit cards is that they need to be registered to exactly the same name and address that you have on your iTunes account, which prepaid cards tend not to be. Do you have a proper credit card that you could use ? Or are iTunes gift cards available in your country so that you could try using them as your payment method ?
Until you have a valid payment method on your account and what you owe iTunes has been paid off then you won't be able to download any item from the store, including free apps (and updates to apps).

How do I restore my Ipad 4 from my desktop computer? My charger was broken. I bought a new one but now it won't charge. I have a BATTERY bar in the middle of the screen that is flashing RED and I have a symbol on the bottom that looks like a charger.

How do I restore my Ipad 4 from my desktop computer? My charger was damaged so I bought a new one but it won't charge. On my Ipad, I have a BATTERY bar in the middle that is flashing RED and an icon on the bottom that looks like the end of a charger. I have tried to force into reset mode, by holding the sleep key and home button SEVERAL times but it does NOT work. I have plugged my Ipad into my desktop computer, but I do not have a screen on my desktop that is coming up. THIS HAPPENED BEFORE AFTER I DID AN UPDATE AND WAS LOCKED OUT AND I USED EITHER ICLOUD OR ITUNES TO RESTORE, NOT SURE WHICH AND I FORGOT HOW.

Hi MrsMoosie,
I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPad. If your iPad isn't responding or doesn't appear to be charging, you may find the information and troubleshooting steps outlined in the following articles helpful, in particular the following portion:
If you don't see the charging screen within an hour, or you see the connect to power screen, check your connector, USB cable, and power adapter. Make sure that everything is plugged in firmly, free of debris, and not damaged. You might want to try a different USB cable or power adapter.
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Mac Pro 1,1 - Bought It To Upgrade But Now...

Hi all
I'm by no means a power user - I just got my Mac Pro back in '06 under the line of reasoning that I wanted the MP so I could upgrade it later on... specifically, the video card and maybe the processors eventually...
But now it looks like the only option for a video upgrade is the Radeon 4870 and upgrading the processor isn't really economically worthwhile...
As I said, not a power user - just someone who wanted more "ummph" than the iMac could give... how do others feel about this? Should I have gotten an iMac?
BTW, this is stemming from my discovery today that Starcraft II isn't even supported on my 7300GT... not even runs slow, just period not supported...
Thoughts?
-Justin

Hi
Took a quick peek around and it seems that (at Amazon, for instance), a single Xeon 5355 is ~$900... to me, this seems that upgrading the processors would not be cost-effective, as compared to just buying a new machine? Mainly because the new machine would bring so many other benefits, no?
Although, there does seem to be a wide range of prices - any idea why that is?
I'm not necessarily looking to tinker - I had just hoped to have more "official" options with video cards and such... everything about the MP is good for, it's just the video card...
On a side note - wondering if you can answer another question since you said you have a MP 1,1... is it still using the original 5150 processor? If so, are you able to measure the CPU power usage? I ask because mine draw a lot more power under recent revisions of OS X - naturally, this causes the temperature to go up lots...
Thanks again
-Justin

MacBook Pro will not sleep with lid open, but now solved, very odd.

I bought a 2.4 GHz MBP about a week ago, as soon as I got it home I reinstalled the OS and zero-out the drive. Everything appears to work perfect until I noticed that the MBP will not sleep with the lid open.
But...
Close the lid, it sleeps.
Select sleep from menu, it sleeps.
Let the battery drain down with lid open, laptop sleeps.
Whent thru painful troubleshooting process, reseting things, permissions, what is installed, running programs...blah blah blah, nothing no difference.
So, backup the drive using superduper to external firewire and reinstall all over again, just like i did when i first got home, except I did not let it connect to the internet. I went thru and setup everything then connected and performed each update, one at a time looking for what might hinder the sleep process.
And the result is a big fat zero.
Same install process as i did the first time, and same updates as the first time. But now the laptop sleeps perfectly.
Gotta love computers, so very consistant
Just my .02 input on this wacky issue.

Try trashing these 3 .plist preferences and reboot. Reset your Energy Saver preferences.
HD > Library > Preferences > SystemConfiguration > com.apple.AutoWake.plist & com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
User > Library > Preferences > com.apple.systemuiserver.plist
Also, look at your system logs in your Console application and see what is causing the "wake event." It could be hardware-related. Do you have any external devices attached, such as a mouse or hub? I've seen Bluetooth problems with wireless BT mice.
