My iPhone didn't come with AppStore how do I get it?

My iPhone didn't come with the app store app and I am unable to get apps online or off iTunes. I'm clearly missing something obvious so could someone link me to a page where I could download it?

That app comes pre installed on the device.
Try swiping through the screens.
And swipe to the left of your Home screen. Type App Store in the search field.
It can't be downloaded.
If nothing above has helped, restore the iPhone.
iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software

My MAC did not come with IDVD, how to I get it?

My MAC did not come with IDVD, how do I get it?

Yes, there are programs that will put a movie on a DVD. I have tried most of the other substitutes including Toast, Burn, and others. None of them come anywhere near the ease-of-use and power of iDVD. IDVD is specifically designed to work with iMovie and iPhoto.
With iDVD you can easily and quickly create DVDs with menus and graphics almost on the level of what Hollywood can do.
IDVD is easy to get. It is available on disk as part of iLife 11.
IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

Macbook didn't come with Pages and Keynote??

Macbook pro with retina display didn't come with Pages or Keynotes. I recently chatted with a representative who said that they come pre-installed.

According to the online store, Pages, Numbers and Keynote are all extras at $19.99 each. If you ordered your MBP with any of these extra cost options, you will have to get a redemption code from Apple support and download them from the App Store.

MacBook didn't come with an iLife CD?

My MacBook is currently in the process of being replaced, and I figured that, since I have the opportunity, I'll reinstall OSX when I get the new machine so that I have more free space for BootCamp and stuff.
Anyway, I noticed that my first MacBook didn't actually come with a iLife install disc... Did I just not see it? I'll want to reinstall the iLife programs...
Francis

Francis,
iLife is part of the included installation disks that come with the MBP. When doing an install, they will automactically be included, unless you choose to not install them when you pick Customize during install.

I have a new macbook air that comes with iMovie '11 but not iDVD. There seems to be no way for me to burn a DVD. What can I do?

How can I get my project onto a DVD? Why doesn't the computer come with iDVD?

Hi
What's even worse is that Mac Book Air - Do not have any DVD-station at all !
You need a DVD-burner. There are external USB-connected ones.
You need DVD authoring program as iDVD or Roxio Toast@ or Burn (free)
my General notes:
If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs (if it has a DVD-burner) - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
• iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
• DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
• Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
• Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
only You can buy from Apple is
• FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
AppleMan1958
You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

MacBook Didn't Come With Boot Camp Assistant

I ordered my Macbook on 26 December and it came in on 3 January, with Leopard and the Leopard disc, but Boot Camp was not installed. It is my understanding that it was supposed to come with it. Public Beta is no longer available for download, either...
So what am I supposed to do in order to get Boot Camp on my MacBook ?

Try this:

Macbook Pro didn't come with Installation disk

Hello. My 13inch Macbook pro just arrived today. It's Mac OS X Lion 10.7. After powering it up my first order of buisness was to install windows 7 through bootcamp. Then I made the discovery that this Macbook didn't come with an installation disk which I find damned odd. I checked the box and the little notebook holders, and there's no disk. This thing isn't even a day out of the box, so should I call apple and see if they'll send me one or is there something I'm missing?

Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
When the menubar appears select Terminal from the Utilities menu. Enter resetpassword at the prompt and press RETURN. Follow instructions in the dialog window that will appear.

I want to sell my Macbook 6,1. How do I restore it to factory settings if it didn't come with a installation CD?

As the title says, I am looking to sell my macbook, and I am trying to restore it to factory settings but everywhere I read it says that to get it to factory settings I need the instllation CD, but my macbook did not come with that (was it supposed to?).
By the way, The machine is currently running mountain lion.

Well if you want to get it to Snow Leopard, you are going to have to purchase a DVD from Apple to get it installed. The CD is $19.99 which would cost the same as getting Lion or Mountain Lion from the App store and doing an install through the Internet. Yes, if you go to install it, it's going to ask you for your Apple ID to verify that you purchased the OS to be able to use it. However, if you use yours, you'll be able to get OS X installed and not have anything else to do with your Apple ID. This way the person buying it could still enter their own information and purchase their own Apps and things with their ID. However, I'm not sure if when updates are needed to the OS or whatever else could come along the way that it isn't going to ask them for your ID. You should try to talk them into talking to Apple and ordering it on their Apple ID, they will then get a code to enter to make it available on their ID so you can get it installed for them under their ID. This would cost the same as it would if you were to order the CD's so that you could install an out of date version and still have to pay to update it another $19.99.

I bought a used MacBook Pro and didn't come with an install disc.

I recently purchased a used MacBook Pro, it is the 2006 15.4inch, with 1.83GHz Intel core duo processor. It didn't come with RAM, a charger or the instal disc and the battery was dead. I installed RAM, bought a battery and charger and it booted up no problem, but I can't get past the login because I don't know the previous owners password. How do I get passed this point so? What OSX do I buy?

In the mean time try this: Run Mac Setup Assistant -
Restart the machine with the Command and S keys held down, and type the following commands into the prompt in order:
mount -uw /
mv /var/db/netinfo/local.nidb /var/db/netinfo/local.nidb.old
mv /var/db/.AppleSetupDone /var/db/.AppleSetupDone.old
usr/libexec/create_nidb
shutdown -h now
The Setup Assistant will reappear the next time your computer is turned on. Be sure to enter the commands properly. You will be able to setup your user name password, etc. You can then delete the previous owners User.

I bought a used macbook air, it didn't come with the flash drive to do a factory reset. Can I download the info needed and save it to my own flash drive and then do a factory reset? If not what can I do?

If it originally shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, click here, phone Apple, and order a replacement.
If it originally shipped with Mac OS X 10.7 or newer, restart it with the Option, Command, and R keys held down.
