I recently purchased an iMac and transferred all of my documents etc. from my Macbook Pro, but now it seems as if some of my photos are distorted and squished. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

I recently purchased an iMac and transferred all of my documents, photos etc. from my Macbook Pro. Everything seemed fine until I opened iPhoto and now it seems as if some of my photos are distorted and squished. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

How did you move your iPhoto Library from the old Mac to your new one?
Do the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

What version of Logic do you have?
And if you end up upgrading, it's only $199 now.

I recently purchased an iMac with Maverick system. I want to know can I install my Photoshop CS5 on this computer then upgrade it to CS6 without a months charge in the cloud?

I recently purchased an iMac with Maverick system. I want to install my Photoshop CS5 on it, is that okay?
Then I want to update it to CS6 without the iCloud purchase monthly (don't want that, want a one time charge)???

As per System requirements | Photoshop, PS is not officially supported on Maverick and you might face several compatibility issues as well. However, we have many users who are still using CS5 on Mavericks. So, if you want you can give it a try and check it for your self.
As far as CS6 is concerned, you can get PS CS6 perpetual version easily from Adobe.com Creative Suite 6
Hope that Helps!

Just purchased new iMac. How do I download free os x Lion?

Just purchased new iMac. How do I download free os x Lion?

Greetings Peter,
The website for Lion up to date is here: http://www.apple.com/macosx/uptodate/
As Csound1 suggests you should definitely check with all the software manufacturers whose software you depend on to ensure their software is compatible with this new OS. If you upgrade without checking on those program's compatibility you may find yourself without tools you rely on.
You should also backup all your data prior to installing any new software for safekeeping: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1553.
Cheers.

I have not upgraded to Mountain Lion yet, have 3 major apps (acrobatpro) and adobe image ready, and apple works that is not compatible, does anyone know how long snow leopard will be supported. Don't want to upgrade until I purchase new iMac next year.

Consider running your Adobe and AppleWorks software in Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) installed in Parallels in Lion or Mt. Lion:

Just purchase new iMac and migrated. I want to strip my 2 year old iMac of personal files and photos and take to my office. Is there a simple method? Thx

Just purchase new iMac and migrated. I want to strip my 2 year old iMac of personal files and photos and take to my office. Is there a simple method? Thx

The simplest way, is to erase the drive and reinstall the OS X.
Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard: How to Erase and Install
Other than that, you will have to trash all your User files, delete all the photos from within iPhoto and then empty the trash.

I recently purchased an iMac and used migration assistant to get all files from my emac, but now I have three user accounts. I only want one (perhaps two) accounts. I want all my music, photos and word docs from old computer in one user name

I recently purchased a mac and used a firewire to transfer my files onto my new imac with migration assistant. Now I have 3 users. I want one with all my main files (pictures, music, files from my old computer).
I don't mind having an additional "family" account so my younger daughter can't mess us things, but I can't figure out how to get files from one to the next and then delete the one user name.
Thanks,

In order to delete other accounts you must be logged into an admin account. You cannot delete the account into which you are currently logged.
When you started the new computer you were in the Setup Assistant. You created a new admin account before finishing the setup. You need to log into that account because it is an admin account. You can then delete the account you migrated from the old computer (and any other accounts you don't need or want.)
Then create a temporary new user account with admin status - name it, Temp. Log out of the current account and log into the new account, Temp. Now delete the initial account you created in Setup Assistant. You now have one account, Temp. Now re-migrate your data from the old computer. When that is completed log into the migrated account, which should be an admin account, and delete the temporary account, Temp.

Purchasing New iMac?

I have plenty of money to purchase a new iMac for school this year. I am going to buy a 24', 500gb HD, 4gb ram with the nVidia graphics card. But I have heard that a new refresh of iMac is coming out soon. I need this for school in the next few weeks, so if the new refresh is coming out in 1-2 months then i'll wait. But if it will be any longer then that i'll just buy the iMac now.
Also if you bought an iMac and then Apple refreshed it a couple of weeks or perhaps a month later would they let you exchange it for a small upgrade fee or something along them lines?
Thank you for any help offered, i'm curious on your opinions on when I should get one.

But I have heard that a new refresh of iMac is coming out soon.
This is an unsubstantiated rumour, because Apple don't announce new models in advance.

No-one outside Apple knows and Apple aren't telling. This is always the situation; whenever you buy a new computer there is a risk that a newer model will appear after not too long. That way you could put off buying one for ever.

No chance.

Purchased new IMAC .... planning to give my old one to another user. What do I need to do?

I've purchased a new IMAC and plan to give my old IMAC away to another family member. After I transfer my settings, files and documents from the old to the new IMAC, what do I need to do to scrub the machine and give it to a new user?

This is preparing one for sale but the principle is the same.

Considering purchasing new iMac from MacMall

Is MacMall reputable? Anyone have any experiences with them? Does Apple honor the regular warranty with them?
Why should I even bother buying from them you ask?
They seem to offer new iMac's for $100-$150 cheaper than apple store. Another main reason is no sales tax. That's another $120 savings. So, it will be about $240 savings for the same new computer from them.--assuming I get a real new computer and not some repackaged problem computer.
I checked amazon but they don't offer the new iMac's now.
Thanks

Well, I went ahead with the purchase and I received it yesterday. Shipping was reasonable-Free UPS ground 3-5 days. I ordered a new iMAC 27 inch, which normally retails for $1699. It cost $1607 plus another 3% off through some link which took me to MacMall for a total of $1559.
Everything appeared brand new with all the packaging. The computer looks and works perfectly so far.
I also saved on sales tax by buying online and having it shipped to my home. Macmall has not retail stores in my state so they do not have to charge and collect sales tax. They are based in California, so CA residents would be charged tax. That's how the state tax codes work. I'm a CPA, so I'm fully aware of the tax laws. So total savings were $258 lower than the apple store (again thanks in large part to no sales tax).
If I have a waaranty issue, the computer comes with the same 1 year warranty. I'm not entirely sure if I would have to deal with MacMall or Apple in this event, but I'm crossing my fingers for now.
I read some unfavorable and scary reviews of MacMall, but my experience worked out. I also did verify they are listing as an authorized resller on apple's website.

What is the best method to remove personal data from the 24" iMac?

Use setup assistant which is offered when you setup your new Mac. It will transfer information from a Time Machine backup, Clone or another Mac.
It's best to do this during setup to avoid issues with duplicate IDs.

Purchased new iMac wont't let me into my Photoshop CS6

I purchased a new iMac. I had CS6 on my old iMac. It shows up on the icon bar but it won't let me go into it. Do I need my serial number, and how can I get it?

You obviously mean deactivating it, not "unregistering" it.
Yes, deactivating it, obviously. Thank you for pointing that out, the repercussions if misinterpreted could have been devastating.
