    Hi iSMH;
    According to what Steve said in his keynote address on the Migration to Intel, so I think this is not speculation, they will start with the Mac Mini and iBook with the release being sometime during the summer of 2006. The rest of the line will foloow later with the Powermac being released sometime during the second half of 2007

    I'm using same apple id for my ipad & ipod but after start using the same apple id on my ipad, i can't update my free software downloaded on both, it's showing "YOU CAN NOT UPDATE THIS SOFTWARE SINCE YOU HAVE NOT OWNED THE MAJOR VERSION OF THIS SOFTWARE" so how i can update my softwares on ipad & ipod using the same apple id

    I think the issue is that iTunes (for whatever reason) thinks I have two Apple ID's.
    also, to further complicate the issue, when i try updating the apps from my iPod the iTunes store is still recognizing my old hotmail Apple ID. So when I go to enter my password it won't accept because it doesn't match with the old Apple ID, even though it is the same account (just new Apple ID name).
    I have tried signing out within the App Store and re-signing in with my Apple ID but it still brings up my old Apple ID name when I try to update.

    just started a new apple tv and also started using an iMac . I have itunes on the iMac but i cant get the apple tv to sync or find any settings to do so ! How can I get the iMac and apple tv to sync the itunes ? i have a internet connection between them , I have signed in to the itunes store on the apple tv and it shows that the apple tv is sharing my library from the IMac , but it wont sync and the apple tv has no content !

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The Apple TV (with the exception of the Apple TV 1) does not sync, it streams everything from your library on your computer or from the internet.

  • I'm trying to connect to my home wifi with my imac gh5. After I enter the password it says connection timeout or password incorrect. I know there's no issue with the connection but I don't know what else to do. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

    What is the make & model of your home Wi-Fi router that you are attempting to connect your G5 iMac to? Which exact model of iMac do you have?
    What wireless security type is your router using: WEP, WPA, or WPA2? If you temporarily disable wireless security, can the iMac connect to it now?

  • HT201401 My iPhone3GS has started crashing. I'll be mid-phone call, or using an app, when the screen will go dark. I have to restart it. Then it shows low battery sign (even though it was 100%). Within 1 minute of charging, iphone starts. Pl. resolve.

    My iPhone3GS has started crashing. I'll be mid-phone call, or using an app, when the screen will go dark. I'll have to do a restart. It dumps to the warning screen that there's no power and needs to be plugged in.
    Once I connect the phone to a power source, in a couple of minutes it's ready to roll again, and displaying a "full battery" icon.
    The phone is almost always fully charged when this happens, and I don't get a crash when the phone is plugged into a power source.
    Took my iphone to apple store, they informed that battery is very good and there is no need for replacement. Might be there is a problem with iphone motherboard. But they can't repair it as my 3GS crossed warranty.
    Where should I go to repair this. Within 2 years...this 32GB 3GS is almost garbage for me with no support from apple. I am ready to send it to apple for repairs and pay the repair charges.
    I tried everything... deep reset ... factory settings .... nothing is working... Apple staff pl. take care of your customers ...

    Shortly after starting Firefox the "music" reminiscent of Pac-Man starts. It is only on Firefox (haven't tried Thunderbird) even following an uninstall and re-install of Firefox. Just started today. Am using XP Home SP3.

    Dear Firefox:
    I am not amused with the pac-man music. I spent the entire trying to find a virus on my computer. I might have tolerated this as an April Fool's joke, but this "celebration" was completely unnecessary!
    And to others trying to fix the problem ... I just uninstalled Cool Previews and that did the trick. No more bat-shit-crazy pac-man music.

    Start with the third box in  Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    If that doesn't work, use the steps in the second box to repair your iTunes installation. Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • When I play my Ipod shuffle 3rd gen there's a moment when I start hearing interference until it stops playing, when I turn it off and on again it starts playing from the first song all over again, and once it sounded like the music was slowing down.

    My Ipod shuffle 3rd gen starts playing songs with some kind of interference until it stops playing, when I turn it off and on again it starts playing from the first song all over again, and once it sounded like the music was slowing down.  First I thought it was the earphones, but I exchanged them for newer ones and so far its the same

    You may want to do a Restore on the shuffle in iTunes.  The Restore button is on the shuffle's Summary screen in iTunes.  This will erase the shuffle, re-install its software, and set it to default settings.  If it's a software or data corruption glitch, the Restore should fix it.  After the Restore, reload or resync your songs, and try it again.  As a test, you may want to initially select a small number of songs to put back on the shuffle.

  • I have given up on my dell and bought an iMac 27"... Now how do I transfer my dell iTunes playlists from my dell to my iMac, as they are showing on the iMac when I plug in my iPod but it's not allowing to me to play them as they are shaded?

    I have given up on my dell and bought an iMac 27"... Now how do I transfer my dell iTunes playlists from my dell to my iMac, as they are showing on the iMac when I plug in my iPod but it's not allowing to me to play them as they are shaded? I have also separately transferred all my music via my external drive from my dell to my iMac which is showing in iTunes but won't upload to my iPod... Just to confuse you even more my AppleTV which is linked to my log in email address and home sharing is showing and playing all the playlists I want to see on my iMac... Phew that was exhausting hope you understand and can help me:-)

    You may have transferred all your songs, but your iPad is seeing the library as a different entity.

  • HT4858 with photo stream on and importing pictures from your camera into your Ipad - after 30 days the pictures will be removed from photo stream, but will the pictures still be in your Ipad ? andy

    with photo stream on and importing pictures from your camera into your Ipad - after 30 days the pictures will be removed from photo stream, but will the pictures still be in your Ipad ? andy

    To my knowledge, pictures in photo stream stay there untill there is more than 1000 of them, then after that the oldest ones are removed from photo stream.  If your photos have synced to your devices via photo stream or manual syncing they will be there until you elect to delete them.

  • 2007 MacBook Pro issues after migration from 2011 iMac

    I recently bought a used 2007 Macbook Pro. I was not very familiar with migration, and I realize now I should have done a bit of research before migrating from my iMac (mid 2010) running 10.8.5. I saw the message saying I should update software, but I couldn't figure out how without logging in, and getting on my network with the MacBook. Anyway, I did the migration. My first issue was the MacBook would not let me log in. I finally got it by resetting the password using a 10.6.4 install disc that came with my iMac. The issues I have now are lots of things either won't work, or I have to run them in 32 bit mode. I'm thinking it's because the newer versions residing on my iMac won't work on the older MacBook. I am unable to open iPhoto, and Desktop & Screensaver, Energy Saver in system prefs. I had to run Mail, iCal, and Contacts in 32 bit. I do not have a disc for Lion, but I just ordered it from the Apple Store. I'm wondering if I shoud just start fresh when I get the disc, or is there any fix for my ignorance? Is a new migration out of the question since the Lion is the most I can run on the MacBook while I'm running Mountain Lion on the iMac. I would really appreciate any advise!
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Jeff,
    what you’ve bought is the ability to download Lion from the Mac App Store, not a DVD. To be able to access the Mac App Store, you will need to have Mac OS X 10.6.6 or newer installed. The person who sold the MacBook Pro to you should not have included Lion with it, because any version of OS X downloaded from the Mac App Store is non-transferable; he should have included its original two grey installation DVDs, because those are transferable with the MacBook Pro.
    Since you’ve now purchased Lion, you will be able to install your purchased version onto your MacBook Pro; however, to associate your MacBook Pro with your Apple ID (and thereby end the association of your MacBook Pro with its former owner), you will need to do a clean reïnstallaton of OS X onto it. To do a clean reïnstallation of OS X, you will need either the original model-specific pair of grey installation DVDs, or the white retail Snow Leopard DVD. It would be best to have both the grey DVDs and the Snow Leopard DVD, since the Snow Leopard DVD does not come with either the iLife applications or the Apple Hardware Test for your MacBook Pro, and your model’s grey DVDs will not let you get to Mac OS X 10.6.6 to have access to the Mac App Store.
