What software can I get to completely check returned macbooks?
Does anyone know what software I can purchase for iMac's and macbook's, that have been leased by schools previously and I want to ensure all is working properly before I resell them?
Like pixels, disc drives, etc...? Thanks!
The best test would be Apple's hardware test. Another test product would be TechTool Pro. The version linked to looks to be one that can be used to test many systems, as opposed to TechTool Pro 6 that is licensed per system. I don't know if it's functionally the same as TechTool Pro 6, but you can look into if it would meet your needs.

What software do I need to use itunes 10. and my iphone 5?
For an iPhone5 you will need iTunes 10.7, not 10.6.3. Once you have Snow Leopard installed you will need to update it to 10.6.8 in order to install iTunes 10.7
1) Make sure your computer meets Snow Leopard technical specifications - http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575 This mostly means making sure it is an Intel Mac and has at least 1GB RAM (at least 2 GB is recommended). Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac". Does it mention "PowerPC" (not Intel), or Intel? To check RAM continue to "More Info...". It should say you have at least 1GB of "memory".
2) Buy a Snow Leopard disc from Apple online
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard - USA
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard - UK
or telephone Apple. In the USA: (800) 676-2775 (contact information for other countries: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57)
Alternatively you can buy from online retailers but anticipate paying much more than the original price which is the price still charged by Apple
3) Backing up your computer before upgrading is always a good idea.
4) After installing from the DVD, update your Snow Leopard installation using Software Update or manually downloading and installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v.1.1 - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399 -
What software can I get on my Macbook Pro that will be ideal for 3D movie making?
Im looking to make my own 3D animations and turn them into a mini series.
I don't want to use other games as a platform.
I guess i would like to start off from scratch, create my own people, space ships, uniforms, planetary terrain etc...
If anyone could help me out I would greatly appreciate it.The Apple Hardware Test is all that Apple makes available. There are third-party programs you can purchase and use, such as Disk Warrior to examine the status of the hard drive. DW is pretty decent from my experience, but when you get into the latest of the Mac OS X versions there is so much optimization already being done by the operating system you do not necessarily gain a great deal with it. I still keep it around, though.

What software can I get for home budgeting?
What softare do you recommend fo use on my New iMac? I used Microsoft Money on my PC, but it is no longer published or supported. Since, I am moving to a new computer, I think it is a good time to find another software that is still supported, before I lose all of my financial information. Any suggestions?
There are some good choices in the App Store. My personal favorite for many years has been MoneyDance. It plays "nice" with all my financial institutions and the latest version has some really nice small enhancements. Another alternative available from the App Store is iBank. It has a bit "glitzier" and in some ways more polished user interface than MoneyDance, but it does not "play nice" with all my financial institutions, but in that case your mileage may vary. There are a number of other lesser options on the App Store but from my experience these two are the heavyweight contenders.

When bookmarking a page, I can't get the complete list of bookmark folders to drop down in order to select any folder in which to bookmark page. The 'Folder:' bar has 'Bookmarks Menu' showing. The arrow on the bar drops down 5 recent folders to which pages have been saved, but the pop down arrow to the right of the bar just opens to show the three categories and 'New Folder' button. What do you set to get whole list of folders in Bookmarks to drop down?
To all, embarrassingly enough, I have discovered that I didn't know how to expand the three categories including 'Bookmarks Menu' in the 'Bookmark This Page' pop up interface. It was expanded by default on the initial Firefox opening and first page bookmark attempt. Next use it only showed categories. I clicked and double clicked the 'Bookmarks Menu' line, but failed to see the small, shaded triangle used to expand/collapse list. If it appears collapsed, just tap triangle at left of line to see all folders. It seems to open the same way after I do it for first time. Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for all the attempts to help.

Have got a Windows Vista basic and had run a a trial version of LR4 on it - just purchased an LR5 without checking out the complete system requirements. Can I get a complete download of LR4 so that the money I've spent is not wasted. I am not interested in upgrading to Windows 7 currently.
There are still retail packs of LR 4 to be found out there - for example, on EBay. It's just important to be careful whether it's a full version, an upgrade, or a student + teacher version. And to be certain it's genuine, and has a serial number which has never been activated before. The serial number that you get with that, should work with any 4.x version of LR, on either MacOS or Windows. And it will almost certainly be heavily discounted compared with the previous price direct from Adobe.
Of course the other way is to upgrade to Windows 7 SP1, which should also be available discounted, and thus eke out the life of an older PC (I personally would not go to Win8 in such a case). Maybe pick up some RAM also, if that's a problem, provided you can do so cheaply (since that will be simply thrown away in due course, when you get a newer PC),
Using LR4 instead of LR5 you do miss out on a few nice features, as well as potentially the Raw support and lens profiles for more recent camera equipment.
LR 4 is obsolete as far as Adobe is concerned. They will not sell a Serial Number for it. -
I've lost the voice track when I listen to music with headphones.What happened? Can I get the complete sound back?
Try compressed air. Try tweezers and a magnifying glass with good light.
The next step would be to Google an iPhone repair service in your area or use this as a good reason to upgrade.

What software can be used to manipulate photos on original ipad
what software can be used to manipulate photos on original ipad
There are a number of photo apps available in the iTunes app store e.g. the free Adobe Photoshop Express can do some basic editing (you won't get anything as sophisticated as Photoshop on a Mac/PC), and with iOS 5 the Photos app will allow you to :
Crop, rotate, enhance, and remove red-eye without leaving the Photos app
Though I'm not entirely sure whether that will apply just to photos taken with the iPad or all photos in the Photos app. -
What software can I use on my new Mac that no longer supports "AppleWorks"? To easily transfer my database for mailmerge.
Two thoughts:
(1) It is possible that your Adobe software was the result of belonging to a now-discontinued Adobe Print Service Provider program where for a certain annual membership fee, print service providers were provided with (a) both a Windows and Macintosh license to the Adobe print-oriented software products (such as InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, and Acrobat) and (b) special direct product support as well as the ability to put your name on Adobe's website as a member of this program. The program ended over a year ago if I remember correctly.
(2) You may wish to contact Adobe Customer Support (not Technical Support) and see if they can track down any and all licenses associated with your company. If you have the names of the former employees who worked with this software, it would be helpful. Likewise, if you were a member of the discontinued Adobe Print Service Provider program, you may have some options for upgrading/updating the software you have.
Unfortunately, you cannot get any more definitive information about your situation on these forums.
Good luck.

What software can I update with on my powerpc g5. Running Mac osx 10.4.11, What software can I update with on my powerpc g5. Running Mac osx 10.4.11. Since it doesn't have Intel dual core processor, can't do Snow Leopard right? Is there anyway to upgrade the software?
Snow is Intel only. You could get Leopard 10.5 by purchasing a Retail (black) Disk off eBay or calling Apple Service and ordering one from them. That would allow you to run Safai 5 and iTunes 10, I believe, but would lose Classic support in the process.

HT5071 Where can I get help completing an application to market on the iBookstore?
Where can I get help completing an application to market on the iBookstore? I am being denied the right to even fill out an application because the tax ID number (which I have verified with the US tax office) is being used by someone else.
Yes, I agree, the tax ID issue needs to be resolved, but the problem is on their side, not mine, and I cannot contact anyone. My question is HOW DO I GET HELP when I can't even get an application to complete? What do I do when I'm told to contact itunes Connect but am denied access? WHO does one contact, HOW? The tax ID is mine. That has been verified by the Feds. There is some snag on THEIR part and I can't get any help. Thank you for your time and effort.

Encoded my surround files in compressor and now need to author to DVD. What software can I use?
I've created my AC3 file from my 6 surround audio files along with my video in compressor. What software can I use to author my surround video to DVD? I have FCPX but I don't have DVDSP or toast. Any suggestions?
Although I don't use it, I'm pretty sure Toast will treat the file properly. (But I would go on the Roxio forums to check.)
If confirmed, that would probably be your lowest cost solution.
Otherwise, if you know someone who has either Final Cut Studio or Adobe Production Suite you could use DVD Studio Pro or Encore.
Good Luck.
