We have two Mac laptops in the household, does anybody know if you need to purchase the Lion upgrade for each?
No. You only pay for Lion once and can then install it on all of your household Macs.
Purchase Lion in the App Store using one of your Macs and the install button will appear for Lion under the Purchases tab when you open the App Store with your other Mac. The App Store will ask for your user name and password to install Lion but won't charge you for the second install. If you have more than one iTunes account use the one that you used to purchase Lion. All apps in the App Store work this way.

If i already own a mac laptop and apple tv do i need to purchase the airport express as well?
we already own a macbook, ipad, apple tv and iphone...do we need to purchase airport express as another item?
If you already have a router, then AEX is unnecessary, unless:
You like to stream music from your macbook to your home theater without running your apple tv or tv, period - AEX has an optical audio line out amd can stream lossless signal from iTunes.
Your iPad won't be able to do that because it will require Apple Tv in the middle whcih is, I assume, already connected to your home theater anyway.
or
you want to have other speakers around the house or outdoors to play music from your macbook too
I use AEX to play in my garage, plus it extends the coverage of my WIFI a bit furter around that side of the house. -
I have 2 iPhones - one for personal use and one for work. They are currently connected with the same Apple ID. I would like to separate the two accounts. Does anybody know how to do this?
Just create a new AppleID for your work.
As Allan suggested, items purchased on one iTunes account cannot be moved to the other account.
However, you can put items purchased on on account onto the other iPhone. -
Does anybody know if you uninstall iTunes (mine is giving me an error message) and then re-install, will my music still be there (somewhere?) I don't have it saved to the cloud, but it is on my iPad I recently upgraded my iTunes account and now I can't open it. I get an error message and it says I need to re-install.
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Does anybody know how to download songs without having to pay for them when you use your voucher. I have redeemed it and have £15 in my account yet everytime I go to download a song it's trying to get me to pay!!! Please help?
hiya. thanks for your suggestion. i just tried it and it worked so thanks XD
i wish apple would make an "exclude" option though tbh.
i have some others called ... in the name "...soundtrack" (one word) or "hidden track" and "teaching track" !
i've got another one literally called "track by track walk through" lol
now im wishing there was just an option to select these oddballs and exclude them individually.
i cant come up with rules for every single possibility, but i cannnn eliminate those odd songs when i see them if there was an exclude option.
but thanks anyway xx -
I have some updates due on some Apps I have downloaded but when I try to update I get a message saying that my account is not in the UK store so must switch to Ireland before purchasing. Does anybody know how you change stores? I did not do this deliberately!

does anybody know how i can find out the answers to my security questions or change my security questions? thanks for any help you may be able to give me.
Didn't the link to contact the iTunes Store staff in the 'Additional Information' section of that article work for you? If you don't already have a valid rescue email address, only Apple itself can reset the questions; nobody on these boards can.

I have two Macs that won't back up to time capsule, says The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data/Douglas Chalmers’s iMac.sparsebundle” is already in use.
Please look over to the right of this page for the heading of More Like This.

My friend bought the Lion upgrade for her MacBook. She would also like to upgrade her desktop Mac to Lion which is currently running Leopard. Does she have to first buy a SnowLeopard upgrade for her desktop? And will the upgrade from SnowLeopard to Lion then be free? Both computers use the same apple ID.
She would also like to upgrade her desktop Mac to Lion which is currently running Leopard.
She needs to purchase Snow Leopard but she can re download Lion on the desktop for free after Snow Leopard is installed.
And definitely use the same Apple ID to download Lion on the desktop.

I have purchased the VGA Connectors for both a iMac and Macbook Pro so that i can connect my promethean board projector to the computer and I can not get the image on the screen. Does anyone have any suggestions?

thank you, I have the adaptors so glad that would work. I just heard adaptors burn out often. So Just thought for my main iMac computer, a plug would be best. I will get one once I move.
Any other suggestions or things I should know about apple products in Ireland. I know there are no Apple stores there.
An adaptor doesn't burn out. It merely serves as a means to connect the power prongs on your device to the power supply.
I believe you are thinking of a transformer, which you do not need. A transformer converts one voltage to another.
You don't need to do that as the power supply of modern electronics can take almost any worldwide voltage.
Look at the label on the device. It should indicate the input power acceptable of 100-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz.
Additionally, I found the adapters cheaper in the UK than I found them in the US. They were available in most supermarket chains. I wasn't in Ireland, so I can't say one way or the other.
If you have something that doesn't have that input power spec, it would require a transformer.
On other items like electric clocks or things with motors, you can connect them up to a transformer and the voltage will be correct, but the frequency may not. For clocks, that will cause them to not keep time well. For motors, they will burn out. -

Hi does anyone know if you can get a refund if download wrong app? As I have downloaded a 13.99 app but wanted the 18.00 app? I don't fancy having to pay another 18 pounds. Thanks stackers
If you are looking for a refund for the purchase of this application, you must request this from the support web site for the itunes or app's store. You should note that officially the iTunes Store does not give refunds and that the terms of sale state that "all sales are final". You can ask, though, and perhaps they'll make an exception for you. Just state why you feel a refund is deserved.
