Not getting shared calendar notifications on new MacBook Pro

Once I got a new MacBook Pro (2.4 GHz Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM, 256GB flash storage) and transferred my data from my old MacBook, I stopped getting notifications of changes made to shared calendars owned by someone else. (Changes made by others to shared calendars that I own still generate notifications.)
In iCloud preferences, Calendars is checked.
Calendar is in my Notification Center, and its notifications are set as alerts.
In Calendar preferences, "Turn off shared calendar messages in Notification Center" is not checked.
In Info for individual shared calendars, "Ignore alerts" is not checked.
I removed one of the shared calendars, then its owner resent an invitation to it, and I accepted. It didn't help; I still did not receive notifications.

This is very strange, but yesterday, weeks after I set up my new machine and found this problem, I started getting shared calendar notifications again out of the blue. I have no explanation.

How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPad but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPad with it.
above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

I suspect security software or a firewall is your problem.

I have a networked HP L7780 all in one printer and I can not get it to fax through my Macbook Pro. I have downloaded all the drivers and it has passed all the tests. Every time I try to fax it shows the job paused.

How to get my itunes on my new macBook pro

Howw do I get my itunes on my new MacBook Pro?

The application should be pre-installed. If you mean transfer a library:
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.itl file in the moved iTunes folder.

What do i do to get my music on my new macbook pro???

I just got a new macbook pro but my iTunes library doesn't have any of my music i purchased,from the iTunes store, on my old computer that no longer works. What do I do to get it on my new macbook pro?? My daughter also got a new macbook pro for college and uses the same apple account for music and when she logged on to are apple account she got all the music right on there. I don't understand why it didn't work for me! Everyone in my family tryed to get the music but wasn't able to. Please help.

Hi lisa,
It doesn't look like you are on the correct screen to download your past purchases. Click on the iTunes Store. Once the Store is open, click on Purchased under the Quick Links section. You will then see a window with Music, Movies, TV Shows, Apps, and Books. Click on Music. Then click on All Songs. Then click on Not on this Computer. You should see something similar to this:
You will see a little cloud next to each song, and you can selectively click on the ones you want, or you can click on Download All at the bottom of the screen.
Post back with questions.
Cheers,

Disk Images do not mount - Update to Lion on New MacBook Pro

Hi,
Just got my new MacBook Pro 2011 13 inch higher spec with 750GB hard drive today. Updated immediately to OS X lion via the up to date programme for free. Am in the process of restoring my applications that I had on my old computer that are on my external hard drive, however the .dmg disk images will not load properly. They go through the regular process of verifying then mounting the disk image, then the image appears for a split second on my desktop before disappearing again.
This happens even if i copy the disk image off of my external hard drive to my macintosh HD and try to mount from there.
This is really really scaring me as if I can't load all my old applications my new computer is absolutely useless. Please please could someone tell me what is going on!?!?!??!?!
Many thanks in advance,
Sam

Woke up this morning and tried again and now they all mount fine... Don't know how this happened but the only things I have done differently are trying to mount a dmg that was on my old computer over the network, and it mounted fine, then mounted other dmgs that were previously not working, and they are all fine too. I'm halfway through downloading software updates but all its done so far is download updates for iweb and itunes, and they haven't started running yet anyway.
With love from,
Confused.

HT3209 Why am I getting this message on my new MacBook Pro 15" Retina notebook??

Soooo... dropped nearly $3,000 the other day on my new MacBook Pro 15" with the amazing Retina display. Tonight I finally picked a movie I wanted to purchase in HD, and got the message "This cannot be played in HD on this computer. If you buy the HD version, you will have to transfer it to an HD-compatible device in order to watch it. Or, you can buy the SD version and watch it on this computer."
Why on earth is this message showing up on my new Mac? Is this machine not the very definition of HD notebook computing? What's the deal Apple?
I guess I'll watch premium cable tonight, I'm sure as **** not buying the SD version on this Mac.

Did you try the Parallels site, since it is Parallels you are having troubles with?

How do I stop getting shared calendar notifications?

If I share a calendar to someone in read-only mode, how can I prevent them from being spammed with notifications every time I add or change appointments? Similarly, when I've subscribed to someone else's shared calendar, can I prevent myself from being similarly spammed?

Going to answer my own question after searching the web a bit more...
The setting is not in the Notification Center, where you'd expect... it's in the Calendar app on OS X, and in the Mail, Contacts and Calendar settings in iOS 6 (don't know about 7 yet ).
In OS X, open your Calendar and from the menu bar choose Calendar > Preferences and then highlight the Alerts tab. Second from the bottom is a checkbox labelled "Turn off shared calendar messages in Notification Center"... it's unchecked, and you need to put a check mark (aka tick) in that box. To be honest, I think this is poorly designed, because putting a check mark in a box to disable a setting is rather like a double negative, and probably why I've seen so many people think they have this set correctly when in fact the opposite is true.
There's a similar setting on iPhones/iPads too, and again it's hidden away, but at least it's the right way round. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and scroll right to the bottom. Where it says "Shared Calendar Alerts" change this setting to "OFF" (it's ON by default).

80GB Classic not syncing to iTunes 9 on New MacBook Pro

I have owned my new 15" MacBook Pro for one whole week since my previous iBook screen display went out on me a few months ago. Extremely excited about my new purchase I carefully transferred items from an older external hard drive to a new external hard drive. I then decided it was time to update my iPod. Little did I know the mistake I was about to make.
After a bit of finagling I was able to transfer my old playlists into my new iTunes 9.0.3. Once I had double checked everything, I was ready to sync my 80GB iPod Classic (approx 2.5 years old.) I plugged in my iPod and hit Sync.
The process seemed to speed along even faster than it had on my old computer. With a music collection nearing 10,000 songs, my iPod had sync'd nearly 2/3rds of the files in just under an hour. While the new computer sat alone with the external hard drive and iPod attached, my iPod randomly ejected itself.
"Odd," I thought, "I was nowhere near my computer." I clicked okay on the 2 or 3 random error screens that followed only to have iTunes tell me my iPod was now corrupted. "Maybe it's the new computer and I just need to Restore my older iPod." I clicked Restore and a few minutes later everything appeared to be okay.
With a few more attempts, my iPod syncing was going nowhere fast (or slow I should say.) Rather than become completely frustrated, I disconnected everything and waited a few hours before trying to sync again.
36 hours ago I began the sync process again. When I left the house this morning, I had about 3,100 files sync'd to my iPod. Now it's only transferring between 100-150 files over an 8 hour duration. I am now becoming concerned for my hard drives and wondering if there will be any hope that my iPod will actually finish syncing.
Can anyone give me any advice? Should I stop the sync process? Should I find another program to run my iPod? Should I just use my iPod as an overpriced paper weight?
I have been a loyal Apple customer for years and have never seen this many people have a problem with no response from Apple. I am becoming very disappointed in a company I have trusted with my digital world for about 10 years. An immediate fix would be greatly appreciated.

1. Your drive will retain the "dirty" status until it has been successfully scanned by a disk check utility.
2. While there are a number of threads concerning this issue, which I've not personally experienced, I suspect that in comparison to the number of users this represents a tiny fraction of the overall user base. This is not to diminish your right to be frustated, but to point out that, while the problem is readily apparent to you, it may not be sufficently widespread to have come to the attention of Apple's iTunes team or present with enough regularity for them to determine the cause and hence begin the process of creating a fix.
Between our family, for example, we have 3 iPod classics, (1 two years old, 2 brand new), a Nano & a 30Gb ipod Video all of which sync fine. Assuming you get no joy with the steps I outlined earlier it might still be worth checking the status of your iPod's hard drive to eliminate that as a possible cause of problems.
Press *SELECT & MENU* for 6 seconds to reset the iPod then press *SELECT & REWIND* to enter the diagnostics screen. Select *Manual Tests > IO > HardDrive > HDD > HDDSMARTData*.
For comparison here are my results:
Retracts: 861
Reallocs: 12
Pending Sectors: 0
PowerOn Hours: 2097
Starts/Stops: 856
Temp: Current 29C
Temp: Min 10C
Temp: Max 50C
When finished press SELECT & MENU for 6 seconds to reset the iPod again. If you have any pending secorts that might indicate that there is a fundemental problem with your iPod's hard drive that, while not preventing you using the menus, is hampering iTunes when it tries to update the iPod.

ICal not syncing from existing iPhone to new macbook pro hard drive

Hi everyone,
Can anyone help? I have just had the Hard drive on my Macbook Pro (mid 2009) replaced and I have then restored all previous hard drive content and settings from my time machine. Everything transferred across with no problem except that when I came to sync my iPhone with my computer, everything else will sync except for iCal.
iCal on my computer currently has the same calenders but with nothing in them. I want to be able to sync my iPhone calenders with my Macbook calenders so that the information gets transferred accross to my Macbook.
I have tried adjusting the sync settings in itunes and I have tried backing up and restoring my iphone to see if I could force the computer into recognising my iPhone ical files but to no avail. I am now stuck and could really do with some advice.....
Thanks
SiBB

Connect to the MacBook. It will ask you if you want to sync with the MacBook. It should then ask if you want to save what is on the iPad. Tell it yes, and it should do so. You should have your iPad apps backed up anyway, but I am pretty sure that you do not lose anything by transferring to another machine. The iPad does not care if it was a Mac or PC that it is synced with, it is not in either format. You do need to go and authorize your Macbook on your iTunes account.
Besides there is a step by step instruction on [How to transfer or sync iPad contents to Mac|http://www.softwarebbs.com/wiki/Howto_transfer_or_sync_iPad_contents_toMac].
Hope it can do you a favor.

Syncing iPhone calendar to brand new MacBook Pro iCal.

How can I add my iphone calendar data to iCal on my new macbook? I feel like if I do it through iTunes, it will wipe my iphone calendar and I'll be left with nothing.

You need to do it through iTunes. Copy the iTunes folder from your Music folder of the old Mac to your new Mac. There is an entire forum area devoted to the iPhone here:

Re: Not getting audio from TV when connecting MacBook Pro with all correct cables.

How do I get audio from the TV when connecting MacBook Pro with all the correct cables?

Hi Lynn,
If you're positive you have the correct cables, and positive they work, they must be plugged into an input on the TV made for that purpose, then that input must be selected on the TV's menu.
