What should I know about transitioning from original iPad to New iPad?
I'm about to set up my new iPad -- I have an old, first generation iPad. What do I need to know?
What sort of thing do you want to know ? If you want the same content on the new iPad as you've got on the old one then copy all purchases off it to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases and then do a backup (right-click the iPad device on the left-hand side of iTunes), and then restore that backup onto the new iPad (you will need to enter email, router and other passwords on the new iPad, the restore won't copy them onto it)

What should I know about the Trustor Rapport malware protection update?
I received a message to allow update of something trustor rapport malware protection. I did not know if I had it or if I should allow it to update. Anyone know about this?
Trojan War
If you discover a trojan program is running on your computer then look to the following information for assistance:
1. A recent discussion on the Apple Support Communities: MacDefender Trojan.
2. An excellent site devoted to Mac Malware: Macintosh Virus Guide
3. Another site for removing MacDefende, et.al.: MAC Defender Rogue Anti-Virus analysis and Removal
4. A new removal utility - MacDefenderKiller
5. And to protect against a recent variant, MacGuard.
Before you delete anything, we need your help. Some AV folks in our community need to analyze these files in order to protect others. Before you delete anything please consider doing the following: Upload either the original .zip file or the MacGuard application to http://www.VirusTotal.com. If either is not detected by ClamXAV, then also upload it to http://cgi.clamav.net/sendvirus.cgi. If you are uncomfortable doing this for any reason and can determine the URL of the site where you got it please send the link to [email protected].
Removing strange software can be a task. The following outlines various ways of uninstalling software:
Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a Startup item or a Log In item. Startup items are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the Delete [-] button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, Easy Find, instead. Download Easy Find at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Note that you must have this software installed before you install software you may need to uninstall. Uninstallers won't work if you install them after the fact. Here is a selection:
AppZapper
Automaton
Hazel
CleanApp
Yank
SuperPop
Uninstaller
Spring Cleaning
Look for them and others at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
For more information visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on removing software and dealing with spyware and malware.
After removing all the components of the software you may have to restart the computer to fully disable the software. This will be the case when removing software that has installed a daemon. After the daemon has been removed you need to restart the computer to stop the daemon. Alternatively, you can kill the daemon process using the Terminal application or Activity Monitor.
That most likely is just a rename of the trojan known as MacDefender. Do not download it or allow it access to your computer. -
What should I know about upgrading processors?
I recently bought a 400 MHz Gigabit Ethernet on eBay (still hasn't come yet). I've looked into processor upgrades and know they can be done, but not how to tell which processors will be compatible. I want to say that the Gigabit' uses a ZIF socket, but I can't remember where I might have heard that. So, please tell me whatever I might need to know about processor upgrades.
Also, can this unit take a second processor? I know other Gigabit Ethernets shipped with them, but the 400 MHz only shipped with one and I don't know if this one is actually capable of taking two. If it is, feel free to tell me what I could also need to know about that.OWC has a service where you can punch in your model and upgrades only for it show up.
G4 Gigabit 400mz (2000). I bought an OWC 1GHz CPU from there for my G4 Gigabit. works great....it was a clearance item and I see they don't sell them anymore.

Switching from pc to a MAC!! What should I know about iTunes switching??
Well I am finally getting a Macbook Pro. What I need to know is: I have an iPhone and use my pc for syncing. I am getting rid of my pc and getting a macbook. The macbook will be my main iTunes server. Should I save any iTunes files from my pc before I make the switch? Or will I just install iTunes on the mac and sync?

What should I know about the recent virus on apple products?
To Whom can best help,
I recently learned about the recent virus that infected more than 500000 computers. I heard many talk about the software apple uses as the safest software available. However, now that I own a few products from apple, this recent virus that got ahold of some personal information has me wondering what is the best route to protect cell phones, ipods, ipads, and macbooks? is there an AV recomended? It would be great to get some adivce from apple techies. I tried looking up some information on the recent problem that had happened, I was hoping it would be addressed on the primary page of apple but found it wasn't. I am just a little paranoid about people accessing my info and try my best to stay ahead of the virus/trojans and stuff. for these electronics are there any really really amazing security apps people would recommend?
sincerely, a concerned customerFirst, it's not a virus but a trojan. We mostly recommend ClamXav 2.2.4 as anti-virus software for OS X.

The trojan attachs through Java. If you don't have Java installed then you won't be affected. Java is not installed with Lion. -
What should I know about getting my imac and powerbook repaired?
Hello again,
Just an update re my 2 computers. My macbook pro that refused to "wake up" or start has returned from apple and diagnosed as a problem with my "logic board" and has been returned repaired in warranty.
My imac who exhibited the ticking sounds and eventual failure to start is getting the hard drive replaced. I am being charged for 2 hours labour which comes to $300 aud.
Finally, while this is good news I am left feeling a bit uneasy. Can you advise me if 2 hours is an accurate time frame? And while I never save my passwords are they in there "somewhere?"
Thanks again for everyone who advised me with the problems I have experienced! And the wireless network is going strong with my notebook and my partner's pc.
Kind regards,
Becky Bell
imac G4 MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8)Hello Becky,
2 hours is a remarkable time to open up an iMac and replace a drive.
The passwords are stored on the drive. I am sorry to tell you that they have gone with that drive.
See here...
I took my Mac apart

I just heard a news report that there is a problem with malware in mac computers that came through a recent java update. Is this true? If so, what should be done about it?
As usual those "news" reports mangled the facts and got most of the story completely wrong. This particular attack did not arise through a Java update, it was distributed through a fraudulent Flash download popup window, or malicious websites that Safari is designed to block.
If you run Java on your Mac you may be vulnerable to this malware. If you do not run Java there is no risk. If you routinely keep your Mac up to date with Software Update the risk is greatly reduced.
Shut off the mass market junk that masquerades as "news" and read this to learn some real facts:

I have insurance through apple for my iPhone 4. Last night my phone was stolen. Am I covered under insurance to get a new phone? And how much will it cost? Second- what should I do about it? I don't know if I should shut down the phone or what in case my iPhone is able to be located or what not?

No, you simply do not. Apple does not sell insurance.
Apple offers an Extended Warranty called AppleCare.
Warranties doe not cover lost or stolen devices. Buy a new one. -
Does anybody know if the ipad air 1 is using yosemite or something different? I don't know what type of safari i should install because it disappeared from the ipad. Thanks!
YYosemite is a Mac OS and it doesn't run on an iPad. You cannot delete or install Safari on the iPad. It is on your device somewhere.
Swipe from screen to screen to look for it.
Check Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure that you didn't disable it.
You can also reset the home screen layout and the icon will reappear - but the home screen will return to the way that it looked when you first activated your iPad. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout. -

Getting a PowerBook: What should I know?
I'm almost positive that I'll be getting a PowerBook (15") within the next month or two. What should I know? I'll be moving from an iMac FP, so I'm used to a desk keyboard and MX1000. I'll get over the change. Are there any amazing laptop-centric utilities (I had a vision of tapping the corners of the trackpad to act as right, center, Exposé, etc. mouse buttons… cell phone interaction... battery monitoring)?
I'm a student. I'm used to carrying around a backpack with notebooks, textbooks, etc.. What would be the best way to carry the PowerBook? Does the battery last long enough for a day of school or should I bring the power adapter?
I'm just looking for any wisdom of experience from the Discussions community. Since you all secretly want points, the most helpful response gets the "answered" star, and the next most helpful get "helpful" stars.Just wanted to throw in a plug for my case because a) it's very useful/convenient and b) I get tons of compliments. It's a black Timbuk2 quilted laptop sleeve, but on Timbuk2's website (Timbuk2.com) they sell a variety of models, colors and sizes. I like this particular model primarily because, as I am also a student, I am able to put my 15" PB in the case and then just put it in my backpack with all my other books without worrying about scratches, etc. It's not something extra you have to lug around in addition to your backpack. Happy shopping (and hey, if you buy online you can avoid the crowds!).

Hi everyone. I both a Mac Pro 15" in March 2009. Five month ago I was forced to buy by one new hard drive and extent the memory, because I had to make the upgrade (and pay) to install the new Lion operation system. Four days ago the Mother-board fails. To change it will cost a fortune. What should I do or expect from Apple to solve this problem? I am very disappointed because my trust on Apple was destroyed.
I am not sure why you are upset with Apple. Electronics equipment does fail. If the product is out of warranty or you do not have AppleCare there's not much you can do with Apple. Apple will charge you for the repair. Suggest you look for a third party repair store since they are usually less expensive than Apple. Alternatively you can buy one for about $850US and install it yourself. Sorry, but there aren't many choices in this situation.

I installed 10.8.2 and it seem to go well except at end an error message reading 'Error SpeechSynthesisServer.app damaged or incomplete'. What should I do about this and what apps would be impacted?
Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it:
codesign -vv /S*/*/*/A*/*/A/*/S*/*/A/S*S*S*
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste (command-V) into the Terminal window.
Post any lines of output that appear below what you entered — the text, please, not a screenshot. -
Last night, I saw my iPhone on the table in front of me and twice it made phone calls on its own. I just watched it make the outgoing call as it sat in front of me. Should I think that it has a virus? What should I do about it?
Also, it's been a little quirky lately: slow to respond to key pad touching and making it impossible to delete Apps?
Should I try wiping it and restoring it to factory settings?
Thank you.
BenIt isn't a virus.
I would try the Restore from backup first and if that does not help try a Restore as a new iPhone.
