Why can't I use iWork '08 in my new MacBook Pro

I have installed iWork '08, but no cursor shows up.  Must I purchase a new iWork for my MacBook Pro?  I really only need the word processor.

You can purchase just Pages using the Mac App Store for $19.99.  There are also other word processors available for OS X.  For example, Libre Office and Neo Office Aqua are free packages each  similar to Office for OS X.  These and others can be found at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.

  • Why can't I open iTunes on my brand new macbook pro after using Migration Assistant to transfer content from my previous mac?

    I just purchased my new macbook pro yesterday and I used the Migrations Assistant to move files from my old mac to this one. Everything seems to be in working order EXCEPT iTunes. every time I try and open it a message appears telling me to download it and a second window also comes up saying error (-42408) occurred. I have tried to download iTunes7 and even plug my iPhone is but nothing has worked. Help!

  • Why can't I use the touch pad on my MacBook Pro to zoom or shrink?  Two finger pinch doesn't work.

    My touchpad is set to do this but it works in OS X 7 the same as in snow leopard (with a couple of exceptions).

    Yeah, that's what I ended up doing. It just wasn't worth the hassle. I got a good (standard size) monitor for about half the price of the old one, so I'm not too disappointed. Thanks for your help though

    Not aware of a 12-inch Intel MBP. Anyway, could you possibly have an old version of flash player on your computer too. Look in the In the Internet Plug-ins folder to be sure you have only one flash player plugin. Path is HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Flash Player.plugin
    Also try searching your hard disk for flash.
    Some other things to try are in this thread.

  • How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

    How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPad but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPad with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
    also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

  • I have two iTunes accounts and was wondering if i can merge them together. I've a new macbook pro and haven't plugged my iPhone in it yet in fear of losing my songs from the previous account.

    I have two iTunes accounts and was wondering if i can merge them together. I've a new macbook pro and haven't plugged my iPhone in it yet in fear of losing my songs from the previous account.

    Go to the Music section of your Library (very top-left corner) and see if your songs are there. The "Purchased" playlist may have been deleted or gotten corrupted, but if that happens it's not a big deal because your music should still be in your main Music Library.
    If your music is NOT in the Music section of your Library, then go to the iTunes Store homepage and find the Quick Links list on the right side. At the top of that list, click Purchased and you can redownload all of your previous content that you might have lost.

    Hi Francis,
    Could you please let me know how have you been trying to install Acrobat?
    Please ensure that you are signed in as admin and antivirus software is disabled at the time when you install.

  • I can't watch YouTube videos on my brand new MacBook Pro with Lion. It says I need to download Adobe Flash Player but that won't install. Help!

    I can't watch YouTube videos on my brand new MacBook Pro with Lion. It says I need to download Adobe Flash Player but that won't install. Help!

    The same thing happens to me, Safari asks me to update the Adobe FlasPlayer, I download, start the installation process, ask me my username and password in order to install, then see a window where I choose if I want to always install the updates , or ask first, or not inslate updates, and at this point it is not progress, I can not cancel the process, I turn off and turn on my machine.
    What can I do ..??
    Regards.

  • Why won't my apple tv sync with my new macbook pro, they are both on the same wifi signal

    why won't my apple tv sync with my new macbook pro, they are both on the same wifi signal.

    Not sure of what? In your second response you said the issue was with airplay. You were also having issues connecting laptop to computer, which points to a laptop connectivity issue. I simply asked if home sharing was an issue as well, since that will confirm the laptop as the cause. Your response that home sharing is on doesn't really help since that doesn't itself have a bearing on airplay nor does it answer the question in regards to if home sharing is working on Apple TV
    If you have a further question you will need to be specific.

  • Why can't I use a Movers Coupon on a MacBook

    I tried to buy a MacBook Pro at the Best Buy store in DeerPark (IL) but was told by a store associate that I could not use my movers coupon as the MacBook was already on sale. There is no mention of this exclusion in the coupon or BestBuy.com.
    I have seen people successfully stack a student discount and the movers coupon on MacBooks that were already on sale, but my local store says it can't be done.
    Can a Moderator here clarify the policy? As an Elie Plus member I would prefer to spend my money at Beat Buy, especially if I can use these coupons to offset the sales tax and get my final cost to what I would spend on Amazon without these hassles.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi BigDaddy,
    I’m sorry if this associate gave you incorrect information regarding our Movers Coupons. Movers Coupons can be used towards the purchase of a MacBook Pro that is on sale. You state this store is our store in DeerPark, IL, but I don’t see a store located in a town named DeerPark. Could the location of this Best Buy be in a different city?

  • Why can't I use any downloaded program on my Macbook?

    It seems to be that I can't do anything when I open a downloaded program. That includes programs such as Adobe, Microsoft Office en even the smallest such as VLC Media Player. Programs that were already on the laptop such as Safari, Finder, Apple Mail, App Store are no problem. I can restart the computer and maybe it will work again but it is about a 1/10 chance.
    I have a 15 inch Macbook Mid 2010 version 10.6.8. I have updated to Mavericks but it didn't help the situation (version 10.9)

  • I want to use iMovie 6 on my new MacBook Pro running Lion 10.7.5. It won't download. Can I download Snow Leopard instead and use iMovie 6 with that older OS?

    I have a MacBook Pro I recently purchased 'cause my old G4 just couldn't output my video films properly. My new MacBook Pro is running 10.7.5 OS Lion. Don't like iMovie 11 and want to use iMovie 6. It won't download on Lion. Could I download Snow Leopard (deleting OS 10.7.5) and use iMovie 6 then? I saw a previous thread that said that could be done.

    AppleMan...I have the same iMac you have...i-7 16GB with a SSD....just bought it second hand and it is about 1.5 years old....it was maxed out with upgrades when the original owner bought it.  It was also restored back to factory settings prior to me taking possession. 
    I am making home movies in iMovie 11....max length 30 minutes or less.  I am totally new to this editing.  I am using HD footgage filmed from my Hero GoPro 3.  I am finding that the movies that I am creating are skipping, staggering, hanging up etc...usually where I had transitions.  I am certain I have enough power and memory in my iMac, so what's the issue?  I read one of your other posts about optimizing each event or clip to 1080p?  Is this what I need to do for every clip I import?  Can I do this for all the clips at once on import?  I also read that I may need to export the movie to quick time for smooth playback?? 
    Any help you can provide would be appreciated!
    Sincerely,
    Matt
