This is where you put in the server that your email comes from (your provider)
If you have, for example, gmail... you would put in mail.gmail.com
user name ( do i put my full email here?)
yes...just like you would login to your email on the client you used before
password (is this my email password?)
yes
any help would be great thanks
Hope it did

How do I set up my new Macbook Pro to associate with my Apple ID so I can download purchased music?

How do I set up my new Macbook Pro to associate with my Apple ID so I can download purchased music?
Under 'Manage Devices' it only lists my iPhone and iMac. I've bought stuff on my new Macbook Pro using my Apple ID, but I can't find music I previously purchased using the iMac.

Oh, wait, I've found it. Silly me!

Trying to set up a new macbook air and it is asking for a keychain password

I am trying to set up a new Macbook Air and it is asking for a keychain password. Where do I find one?

There was an option to Cancel the pop up box which I have now done and it has carried on with the set up - so not sure what it was all about.
I am going to the Genius Bar tomorrow so will ask the question!
Thanks for your help Linc.

How do I set up my new Macbook Pro without using the annoying Voiceover?

How do I set up my new MacBook Pro without using the annoying Voiceover? I cannot get it to work right; it seems to get stuck and repeats the same thing over and over. It is driving me nuts! Is there a way to begin the setup process without using the Voiceover system? I am a new convert from a PC and I thought a Mac was supposed to be "intuitive!"
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
Pamela

There is no good reason to register your Mac anyway.
You can opt out of the setup process and registration by pressing Command (Apple key) and the "Q" key.
The registration process requires you to divulge a lot of unnecessary information.

Setting up new ipad 2. Won't accept my PW for my Airport Extreme (Wi Fi network?) Where is the PW for my WiFi? I am stymied. Can I set up through My MacBook Pro, which IS connected to my WiFi network?

Setting up new ipad 2. Won't accept my PW for my Airport Extreme (Wi Fi network?) Where is the PW for my Wi Fi? I am stymied. Can I set up through my MacBook Pro, which IS connected to my WiFi network?

If you could provide the make and model number of the modem that the AirPort Extreme will be connecting to, we can likely tell you a bit more about what to expect in the way of getting the AirPort set up and working.
Unfortunately, "plug and play" does not apply here. You will need to set up and configure the AirPort Extreme using your iPad or iMac to name the AirPort as a device, assign a device password, name the wireless network, assign a device password and a few other things.
Once the AirPort Extreme is set up, you can connect the PC to one of the LAN <--> ports on the AirPort Extreme using an Etherent cable.
The iPad and iMac will connect to the wireless network that the AirPort Extreme provides.

Trying to set up SMS on Macbook Air 11" and iPhone 6

Trying to set up SMS on Macbook Air 11" and iPhone 6. When I go into text message forwarding, I am only provided with my ipad as an option, not my macbook. Both my phone number and my icloud email are checked, and I have signed out of icloud on both devices. Still no luck. Can someone help? I don't care about the ipad, I just want SMS messages to work on my computer.

Of course not. Migration Assistant will create a new user with the transferred files and settings, so your MacBook Pro won't get messed > http://pondini.org/OSX/MigrateLion.html

Set up a new macbook pro without using voice over

How do I set up a new MacBook Pro without using Voice Over. I can't get past the initial Welcome screen. The VO commands do not work as indicated in the forced tutorial.

Just click the Next and or Continue button. Voice over only starts shortly after you get to one of those screens and you wait to long to input something or click on an option and then Next or Continue. I think at the bottom of the screen there is an option to turn off the Voice over.

Need to set-up an older macbook with a different email for my husband to use

I have 2 mac notebooks, 1 older macbook + 1 new macbook air both were set-up with me as the admistrator. I want to set up the older mac book for my husband to use. Right now both computers are set to my email and have me as an administrator - they both maintain all of my settings for example, the Safari bookmarks are the same on both computers. We did download OX Lion on the macbook and my husband does have an Apple ID . What else do I need to do to separate the computers so we each have our own? We share an iTunes account so that is not an issue.

These are the directions of OS 10.7. Some of the details are different on other OS.
1. On your husband's computer, go to System Preferences / Users & Groups and click the padlock to unlock.
(U & G was called Accounts in older OS - not sure what you have on that older Macbook.)
2. Click the + sign. That will give you a new pane.
3. In New Account, select Administrator ( the default is "Standard").
4. Complete all the other fields.
After this is done, close that pane. Now back in U & G, select Login Options.
Set Automatic login to your husband's name.
Restart the computer, and select your husband's name. Check that all is well.
You can now, if you wish, go back to U & G, unlock and select your own name and click the - sign. That will remove your name from the computer.
You will also need to configure Mail for your husband's email with his password. When he first clicks on Mail he will be guided through the setup steps.

Setting up a new macbook pro with external hard drive

Should these System Preferences match or is it better that the System sets 'Sharing Prefs' (set-up-name's-macbook-pro.local) and Networking/Advanced/WINS name MACBOOKPRO-****) *=numeric digit or letter

I'm now on another fresh OS reinstall which reverted back to the OEM Mountain Lion 10.8.4 after an upgrade to OS X Mavericks 10.9 When I first thought that the failed OS X upgrade could have been the caused by some conflicting networking settings that I discovered in System Preferences. I tried to match the computer name which I gave at setup which the File Sharing section users i.e. name's-macbook-pro.local with the WORKGROUP name which is generated in the System Preferences/Network Preferences/Advanced WINS section uses MACBOOKPRO-****.
However I am not using a Windows PC at the moment and don't expect to be sharing with anyone else using one so I'm a touch uneasy seeing these SMB WORKGROUP settings being established by the System and realising that these settings are not allowing the Administrator user (me) override as. If I do unlock my Networking Preferences settings to edit the WINS WORKGROUP name which is automatically generated as "MACBOOKPRO-****" whatever I enter reverts back to the settings the System has chosen, if I delete this generated name the default System WORKGROP name is reset even after pressing 'Apply' and locking the Networking Preferences again.
The symptoms which make me uneasy are random visibility of a sharing server named as the first half of my Wi-Fi routers SSID ie: BTHub5 not the random letters and numbers that follow BTHub5-****.
Problems setting up Lexmark and Epson printers. Suggested update from AppStore for Remote Desktop Client, I never purchased Remote Desktop but can see that there is a folder Remote Desktop Management in System/Core Services.
Unexpected permission changes appearing all over the System, example being that the user group 'Wheel' changing to 'Staff' I don't employ people and don't want or need filesharing with other computers.
Lots of System crash reports that mostly are listed as 'Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)'
Is any of this normal or am I being stalked by a very persistent user? Thanks in advance for any tips you guys can give me.
Cheers

Previous PC user needs help with setting up iphone on Macbook

I just started using the Macbook and will be using this as the primary computer. My iphone 3G was previously syncing to my previous HP PC. I tried plugging in my iPhone to the Macbook and it definitely reads it....but how do i get the Macbook set up so that it serves as "home base." I didn't see any of the applications that i previously had on the PC itunes iPhone page as on the itunes on the Mac. i thought this would happen automatically. I just need a method of being able to update the apps if need be. Or do i need to use the PC for that?
guidance please.
thanks

Your itunes does not automatically show up on your new computer.
You have to move it there. You can use your back up to do this or the Apple Store will do it for you, or you can call Apple support and they will help you do it.

Setting up my "new" macbook

I bought a new MacBook from the Apple Store for my daughter. The Mac rep patiently set up the computer for us. This week my husband bought what he thought was a"New" Macbook from another store. When I got home I found out that it was actually an open box purchase. Now for the question... When I started up the computer it has someone's name and information. How do I get back to the original set up menue so that I can set up the system the way I want to and also rename the computer.

This should help.
Apple OS X 10.5: How to reset Leopard back to the Setup Assistant
Since it's new you could also just reinstall the software. That way you could do a custom install and get rid of extra files you don't need. The extra language files and printer drivers take over 2 GB of space on your drive.
I would recommend this as you don't know what the other person did. You might want to consider returning it if it was bought as new and it is not.
