You do not need any software installed for protection from virus.
Install all System, Applications and Security updates released by Apple.

Do I need to install an antivirus program on my new MBP?

I have just purchased a new MacBook Pro. I see that Symantec has a free Norton antivirus app for the Mac OS; do I need to install an antivirus program, or does my operating system come with one already installed?
Thanks.

I'm not disagreeing with you by any means, but why wouldn't you recommend Norton? I've read tons of reviews and they say that it is competent and I'm planning to get it. For my PC [I've never had Antivirus on my current 2009 MBP] I've used Kapersky.
Just curious, as Mac is getting somne popularity so viruses are bound to pop up [more often] for Mac in the future, and I'm trying to future proof my Mac for at least 3-4 years.

I used migration to send photos form my Mac Book to my I Mac now i get an error message "iPhoto can not be opened because of a problem" Check with the developer to make sure iPhoto works with this version of Max OSX. You may need to install any available updates or reinstall IPhoto.
I tried installing Iphoto it said it was downloaded successfully. I still get the error messafe, and can not open any photos of program, any suggestions?

What version of iPhoto do you have on the Macbook and on the iMac? What systems are you running on the Macbook and on the iMac?
Does the message only refer to "a problem" or does it specify what it is?

Actually you do not really need AV for MacOSX. There are no virurses for OSX. If you feel you need some kind of protection you should install ClamXav. It is the most recommended AV for Mac. It it free to use. You don't ever want to use Nortons, or any software that was originally designed for MS Windows. They will just cause problems for your Mac. Hope this helps. One way to protect yourself is just being careful what you download and where you're surfing on the web. Be wary of programs and software that ask for your administrator password before installing unless it is from a trusted source. Hope this helps.

But you could have viruses that may not effect an iOS device or even a Mac, but could easily be unwittingly passed on to PC users. So, if you send and receive a lot of email with attachments,and many of your receivers are PC users, you may consider whether you want to risk forwarding them a virus, etc.

Does anyone have any antivirus suggestions?

My bank just issued security software to be installed to make on-line banking more secure. One thing it checks for is anti-virus software. Until now, I've not installed it on my iMac. I guess now is the time I should consider it. Has anyone installed any antivirus software, or a security software suite, that they are pleased with? As a former PC owner, I do not want my experiences there to cloud my judgement.
Also, would anti-virus software work on an iPad? I actually use that more than my desktop.
Thanks.

Under no circumstances install anything from Norton - it is incompatible with OS X.
There are many forms of ‘Malware’ that can affect a computer system, of which ‘a virus’ is but one type, ‘trojans’ another. Using the strict definition of a computer virus, no viruses that can attack OS X have so far been detected 'in the wild', i.e. in anything other than laboratory conditions. The same is not true of other forms of malware, such as Trojans. Whilst it is a fairly safe bet that your Mac will NOT be infected by a virus, it may have other security-related problem, but more likely a technical problem unrelated to any malware threat.

Which patch i need to install

Hi all,
I have installed form 6i on my machine
I want to know which patch i need to install..... where can i find that patch???
Thanks

Are you posting this question for one of your coworkers? What do you mean, "... +which patch i *need* to install+ ..."? Only you can determine if there is a need for a patchset.
If you are not experiencing any problems with this very obsolete version then you don't need to install any patches. If however, you are experiencing problems then your only option would be to install one of the last patches which was Patch 17 or Patch 18 (which was intended for EBiz). These patches are only available for customers possessing current accounts to MyOracleSupport.
If you do have a valid Support contract and do have access to MOS, here is some information you should review:
Note: 228666.1 ; Product Obsolescence Desupport Notice
Patch 17 (ID 4183804)
Patch 18 (ID 4948577)
All of the above are available at: http://support.oracle.com

I have tethered my ipnoe 4 to my pc. i no longer have any other internet connection, just through the iphones 3g. do i still need to update my pc internet security, antivirus, firewall ect.? (there are no other computers/devices connected to my computer)

I have tethered my iphone 4 to my pc. Do i still have to update my pc security, antivirus, firewall ect.? the phone has not been jail broken and it is the only device or means of internet connection, connected to my pc.

iT is good practice to keep all your security software up to date, remember your phone is just a source to access the internet, the vulnerability reside in your computer not on your phone.
Only if the phone had a very good firewall blocking access to your computer, but a think thats no the case

No need to Install antivirus for Mac?

We no need to Install Anti Virus for Mac Book?
If NO ,How to scan data when Insert external HD?
If YES ,Do we have any good antivirus sw for mac?
Thanks in advance

For the full story, see my Mac Malware Guide.
Note that connecting an external hard drive is not a significant source of concern with the types of malware that are out there right now, unless you got the drive from a real bonehead who might have copied some malware installers onto it. That's very unlikely.
Also, note that you'd be wise to turn off Java in your web browser and ensure that all Java updates are installed, due to the appearance of Flashback.G a few weeks ago. See Flashback using Java vulnerabilities and Flashback infections becoming widespread.
(Note that my pages contain links to other pages that promote my services, and this should not be taken as an endorsement of my services by Apple.)

Does my macbook pro need any antivirus softwares?

Ive recently got a macbook 13inch pro laptop. I've heard that they don't need any antivirus protection programmes but the shop assistant in john lewis said did? some of the basic antivirus softwares are norton and comodo. Thanks

some of the basic antivirus softwares are norton and comodo.
Those are two of the worst examples.
There will always be threats to your information security associated with using any Internet - connected communications tool:
You can mitigate those threats by following commonsense practices
Delegating that responsibility to software is an ineffective defense
Assuming that any product will protect you from those threats is a hazardous attitude that is likely to result in neglecting point #1 above.
... I've heard that they don't need any antivirus protection programmes
OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple.
A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
Never install any product that claims to "clean up", "speed up", "optimize", "boost" or "accelerate" your Mac; to "wash" it, "tune" it, or to make it "shiny". Those claims are absurd.Such products are very aggressively marketed. They are all scams.
Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources.
Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
"Questionable sources" include but are not limited to spontaneously appearing web pages or popups, download hosting sites such as C net dot com, Softonic dot com, Soft pedia dot com, Download dot com, Mac Update dot com, or any other site whose revenue is primarily derived from junk product advertisements.
If you need to install software that isn't available from the Mac App Store, obtain it only from legitimate sources authorized by the software's developer.
Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iCloud, iTunes, or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
Java can be disabled in System Preferences.
Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
Beware spontaneous popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > check "Block popup windows".
Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but unsolicited popups are commonly used to deceive people into installing unwanted software they would never intentionally install.
Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
If you ever receive a popup window indicating that your Mac is infected with some ick or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
The same goes for a spontaneously appearing dialog insisting that you upgrade your video player right this instant. Such popups are frequently associated with sites that promise to deliver "free" movies or other copyrighted content that is not normally "free".
The more insistent it is that you upgrade or install something, the more likely it is to be a scam. Close the window or tab and forget it.
Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. Most of these attempts are pathetic and are easily recognized, but that hasn't stopped prominent public figures from recently succumbing to this age-old scam.
OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.
