Why are some of my apps that are supposed to come already installed on my Mac (like IMessage and IBooks) missing?

I have a new Mac. I've had it for about 3 or 4 weeks but when I got it, some of the firmware (apps that come already installed) are missing. Some of these include: IMessage, IBooks, Keynote, Numbers, Pages, IMovie, IPhoto and Quicktime. They are all missing. My Mom recently got the same Mac as me (same year, model etc) and she has all of these apps on her Mac. But I don't... HELP ME ?! I really miss IMessage especially.

Did you try to deselect all apps, sync to remove them all.
If you where able to remove all of them, sync them back.
Resetting the sync history in iSync may also be helpful.

Tried to update to newest version. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes and is stuck on a connection with itunes screen

I tried to update to newest version via pc. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase so it says, but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes anymore and is stuck on a screen displaying an itunes icon with a usb icon.

oke i'm not done with the whole thing, but i'm doing that right now. Most of the advice I've already read didn't work and at a certain point it said something about shutting down programs then restart. but i notice that there are some pretty important system things in that list and i don't want to mess up my pc :s i'm not a pc genius... and because i'm dutch and my pc-language is in dutch I often have trouble translating and well... i don't always understand the technical stuff in all the articles -_-

TS1702 When I backed up my ipad because I thought I had a problem with it in which I didnt, I went to restore my ipad and now some of my app that I had purchased are not there, the free version is on my Ipad and Icloud but not the purchased version?

I thought I had a problem with my Ipad in which I didnt, so I backed up my Ipad and restored it, but now Some of my apps that I have purchased are not available only the free version, not the purchased version. I would have to purchase again and it is not backed up into my Icloud either ?

I assume that you will have to set up as new since it will not let you restore from the backup. Then after you set it up, you can restore from the iCloud backup. The backup should not disappear be use you are setting this device up as new. Your backup should still be in iCloud.
However, after you activate the iPd and update the software, you will have to erase the device in order to restore from the Cloud backup, that is the only way to get to the iCloud backup.
Copied from the article that linked you to this discussion ....
Resolution
Update your device to the latest version of iOS to be able to restore the backup.

I'm trying to delete some recently downloaded apps that don't work. They are faded grey and although they shake with the other apps, no cross appears in the top corner. Any ideas anyone? Thanks, Sean

I have the same issue witha slight variation. The app icons that are grayed out and cannot be deleted are DUPLICATES of other apps that I already have. For instance I now have 2 Redbox apps - one works normally, the other cannot be opened or deleted.

Just updated to i0s 5 on my ipad2. Some of the apps that use to be on the ipad are nolonger there. If i go into itunes on my desktop compter they appear there. How do I get them to transferr to my i pad 2?

just upgraded to ios5 on my ipad2. Some of the apps that use to be on the ipad no longer apperar there. They do appear in i tunes on my desktop computer. How to I transferr them back to my ipad2.

IOS5 upgrade wipes your iPad disk. When you re-sync to your computer, you should get all of the apps that are checked under the Apps page in iTunes.

Why does Apple charge for Apps that are FREE? That's my concern.

Why does Apple charge for Apps that are FREE? That's my concern.

Free means Free....
As both Johnathan and Demo have indicated, if it says Free there is no charge associated with it. If you upgrade to a "Pro" version, or if you do in-app purchases, then it is no longer free....but when you initially install the app, you do not pay anything if it says "Free".
And "Yeah? I'll show you" does not help us to understand what you are talking about. If you want help, then provide specifics and we will help you to figure out your misunderstanding.

Why do some of my apps only work ón my iphone and not ón my iPad ?

Why do some of my apps only work ón my iphone and not ón my iPad ?

That should work on the iPad. Basic app troubleshooting from Apples support site. Items 1, 2 & 3 should not apply to your situation, but I posted the link at the end if you want to read them.
4. Restart the application
If the issue affects only a single app, try closing just that app:
Press the Home button to return to the Home screen.
Double-tap the Home button to display recent apps.
Tap and hold the affected app until the red minus appears.
Tap the red minus to quit the app.
Press the Home button, then restart the app.
5. Restart your device
Hold the Sleep/Wake button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the Sleep/Wake button to turn it back on.
6. Reinstall the affected application
Remove the application from your device and reinstall it.
Touch and hold any application icon on the Home Screen until the icons start to wiggle.
Tap the "x" in the corner of the application you want to delete.
Tap Delete to remove the application and all of its data from your device.
Press the Home button.
Go to the App Store.
Search for the application and then download it again.
Note: If it is a paid app, ensure you are using the iTunes account you purchased the app with originally. If it is not, you will be charged for the app again. For more information regarding downloading previously purchased items, see this article.
7. If the issue is still unresolved
If you continue to experience the issue, contact the developer of the application for further assistance.

On my CC drop down menu why is it only Lightroom app that does not have CC

I have historically used Lightroom as a single purchased product and recently I purchased Creative Cloud.
As a new user I am very unfamiliar with things but I noticed On my Creative Cloud drop down menu containing a list of all my apps I noticed that each of my apps conclude with CC at the end.
with other words
Photoshop CC
Bridge CC
Edge Inspect CC
Scout CC
Lightroom NOTHING ?
On my CC drop down menu why is it only Lightroom app that does not have CC at the end of Lightroom.
Has the system recognised my old Lightroom and it has not installed a CC version or is this the same for everybody out there and if so why?
Why no CC on the drop down menu after the word Lightroom?

Why no CC on the drop down menu after the word Lightroom?
Nothing to worry about. It's the same for everyone and it's normal.
Lightroom does not follow the Cloud version numbering (yet). It's always had its own version numbering.
When the Cloud was first released there was no Lightroom included.
Adobe added Lightroom to the Cloud later but never added CC to the numbering. So yet another layer of confusion was added to the versioning of Cloud software.
There are now two distinct versions of Lightroom:
Lightroom 5.6 (perpetual license, does not include Lightroom Mobile)
Lightroom 5.6 (Cloud which includes Lightroom Mobile)

Hi! I'm getting an iPhone 4 soon, so my question is; is there some kind of "app" that can upgrade iPhone 4 to 4s?

I'm getting an iPhone 4 soon, so my question is; is there some kind of "app" that can upgrade iPhone 4 to 4s?

No, there isn't.
The phones are different as in with different hardware.
If you want a 4s then I would suggest in getting the 4s.

Re: Why are there numbers not showing up on my verizon online call and texts log?

I am having the same problem with texts not appearing on my online text log and have also noticed a huge increase in data since my two sons have had their iPhone 5s. I have the iPhone 4. Two problems here
iPhone users DO appear. In the posted questions and response below, you indicate that if we are all using iPhones then we are not using the Verizon network but using data. HOW DO I STOP THIS DATA USAGE AND RETURN TO USING THE NETWORK? I can't afford the data charges that I am getting.. HELP!! and Thank you.
1.   Re: Why are there numbers not showing up on my verizon online call and texts log?
          SuzyQ   May 11, 2013 8:03 AM (in response to aheath17)
If you are all using iPhones, then it's likely the texts are going through iMessages and therefore use data. Since the texts are not using the Verizon network, but the app, they do not show up in the logs. The app is not specifically blocking the texted numbers from showing up, but the information comes through Verizon as data usage, not numbers texted.

    Sparkyjames81,
Lets figure out just where those texts are going! There are many apps that can be downloaded from the Play Store for Android phones that will allow messages to be sent over the internet, and therefore they are not actually text messages and will not show up in our records. Even Facebook has their own messaging app available that does this.
If you have an iPhone, they come with a service called iMessage that allows for messages to other Apple devices be sent via the internet, and this will also not show up on our records. These are all ways to bypass our actual texting services, and since these messages are not being sent as texts they do not show up on our records.

Why are application updates failing to install from application manager

Why are application updates failing to install from application manager?

Usually some update from another app is blocking any subsequent patches. The general cure is to run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool, let the application manager reinstall and then let it try to update each application at the same time to prevent those version conflicts...

How do I get refund on some of apple app that I have downloaded and didn't liked it.

How do I get refund on some of apple apps that I have downloaded and didn't need it?

Apple will only refund you if there is a problem with the app. i.e., works incorrectly, crashed, or doesn't download. But not simply because you don't like it.
Out of curiosity, which app(s)?

I even tried some hints posted for ios6 (turn off Ipad, holding home button and plugging in power cord at the same time and then releasing the home button)
I did manage to get a different screen that shows the itunes icon and a power cord, but nothing happens.

You were on the right track. You got the connect to iTunes screen and you ended to use iTujes to restore your iPad. Try recovery mode again.
Recovery Mode Instructions
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
Use iTunes to restore iPad.
