How can I get my apps from iCloud to another account?
My apologies if I'm stupid, but I'm new to Mac.
I currently have iMac with El Capitan and I also own an iPad, I've had for about a year. (This was recorded at the Apple store under the identity of the ***@live.com - see below)
I have several apps "purchased" on the iPad that I use on my iMac, which I bought recently.
This iMac is declared to the wound with the same name, but with the ' @icloud.com' suffix.
The problem is that these purchases were made with the account 'live', while my iMac has the "@icloud" account & I don't seem to be able to transfer them to.
Following the intervention by the Imac support - both my iPad & iMac share the same iCloud account & they gave me to understand that my account would be treated as an alias. It doesn't seem to be! - or at least none of my previous purchases are on the relevant list on the apple store. (this is to say that new acquisitions are indicated)
I tried to create a second account on the iPad with the identity as ***@live.com (IE my original account), but it is rejected saying ***@icloud.com (IE NOT live.com) is already on this account!
Asterisks are both of the same name, but there is a big difference between live.com & icloud.com!
I know I'm wrong somewhere, but how to share the apps I bought on my iMac?
Any help will be appreciated.
I have several apps "purchased" on the iPad that I use on my iMac, which I bought recently.
Applications that are designed for the iPad or mobile devices will not work on an iMac. They are two different species, even if they have the same name.
Also the applications that have been purchased on an Apple ID are always connected to this ID and cannot be redownloaded by an another Apple ID. Apple ID can be joined or merged. Also e-mail addresses that have been used for an Apple ID may not be reused for a different Apple ID.
Applications for the iPad are obtained through the iTunes store, while the Mac apps are purchased through the App Store. Two very different stores.
So, you can buy the apps you want for the Mac on the App Store.

How to upgrade to iPhoto on an IMac (El Capitan, OS). Tried to find it on iTunes but I get a message, it is not available in the Canada.
What version do you have now? You can use iPhoto 11 v9.6.1 on El Capitan. If you have a version earlier than iPhoto 11 then there is no way to upgrade and you must use the new Photos.app instead.
If you have a version of iPhoto 11 then put it in the trash (not empty it) and reinstall it from the shopping list of the Mac App Store - note it is the Mac App Store and nothing to do with iTUnes.

How can I get the administrator rights on my user account?
OT: Without administrator rights.
I don't have my active administrator account.
I had a user account that I removed myself from the group administrator.
Now I'm locked to do anything.
I can't assign me to the admin group, I can't allow the user to administrator, I can't edit some files or delete some software...
I tried cmd but get access denied when you try to activate the administrator account. It does not help if I open CMD or anything else with administrator privileges.
I can't open the recovery mode, tried to start in safe mode and all the rest.
How can I get the administrator rights on my user account?
I had a user account, which I removed myself from the group administrator.
-> This is called "paint yourself in a corner.
I tried cmd but get access denied when you try to activate the administrator account. It does not help if I open CMD or anything else with administrator privileges.
-> Is normal. Either you are an administrator, or you're not.
How can I get the administrator rights on my user account?
-> Ask a friend to burn a CD repair system for you (Control Panel / backup and restore). Now to use this CD to start the machine in Repair Mode, and then use the system restore to set Windows to a point before you downgrade your one and only the admin account.
When you're done, plan ahead a little and create, test and document a spare, even admin account that you have a spare House key. This will save you a lot of trouble.

How can I get around having to sign into my account (Windows Vista 7) during startup as I forgat my password?
Hello Bob Zientak,.
If a password is required to log on your system, then you won't be able to cirumvent it. Unfortunately the users of this forum are also not allowed to suggest ways to help you bypass (hack) the password (3668Microsoft Terms and Conditions).
Remember passwords are case sensitive so maybe that you type a password in the case of bad? Did you create a password recovery disk when you created your password first? If Yes, then you must insert the password recovery disk to allow you to change the current password. If you did not create a password recovery disk then the next and more radical, opion is to re - install Windows.

How can I get sent emails from the old to the new email address?

How can I get my emails FORWARDED from my old to my new e-mail address e-mail address?
You ask what their transfer of your former e-mail provider options. Once you stop the e-mail with your former provider service, you usually don't have that email address more unless you work something with them.
Thunderbird is an email client software that runs on your computer. It has nothing to do with staging by email around the Internet. Especially e-mail addresses that no longer exist.
