Magento problem with manufacturers in products

Anyone have an idea how can I set a manufacturer for a product?

ex: I'm selling iphones and want to set Apple as its manufacturer/开发者_运维问答brand

Please help me with this simple task! :)

• Magento has default attribute named 'manufacturer'
• Edit attribute from Catalog -> Attributes and see if Apple is present as your attribute option
• Drag 'manufacturer' attribute to your attribute set (Catalog -> Attribute Set)
• Edit product (Catalog -> Manage Products)
• You should see Manufacturer as a dropdown
• Select Apple from the dropdown
• Save the prodouct

Also, if the manufacturer attribute is defined as a dropdown (which seems to be the default), the manufacturer must be added to the attribute list before you try to import product with a manufacturer. And your manufacturers listed in the imports must be direct matches to those contained in the manufacturer attribute list.
