  • Where is the best place to buy second hand iPhones?

    Someone said that Melbourne had the longest turnaround times for Apple service work. Let me tell you the guys at the St Kilda Apple Service Centre turned my job around in 2 days... but my question is where is the best place to buy second hand iPhones in Melbourne?

    There is no reliable place to buy any second-hand iPhone other than from someone you know personally. There is no way to know for certain that any iPhone you buy from a stranger isn't jailbroken, stolen, or reported lost and replaced (and hence probably blocked by the carrier). The only reliable place to buy an iPhone is from Apple or an authorized iPhone dealer.
    This is the iMac forum, by the way.

  • If one buys pages , can i download it and run it on my desktop AND my laptop or do I have to buy it twice? its only me using one machine at any one time. (Have recently purchased a second hand iMac and secondhand Mac book pro 17")

    If one buys pages , can i download it and run it on my desktop AND my laptop or do I have to buy it twice? its only me using one machine at any one time. (Have recently purchased a second hand iMac and secondhand Mac book pro 17")

    I have a couple or dozen or so excel spread shheets that I use origionally created in M/s Excel v.5.0 ( yup some time ago although have run and updated them on office 2007  perfectly etc.  AND numerous word files that I refer to. I have also run these files using Open Office on a small 13" mac Book Pro. successfully.
       I have now decided to change my personal use computers > macs.
    Ok, so in summary then i think you kind guys are saying:
    (1) That if i buy Pages & Numbers or even iworks which is Apple's suite of such programs i believe, then I can download and Run these apps /programs on each my personal  mac computers whether they be my second hand Imac or second hand 17" mac book pro. ( basically i have purchased these so that I am converting to the "Apple Side" and can use the Imac desktop while at home and Mac book pro when out and about) , under the one purchase and one licence.
    (2) The decision as to whether to Buy M/s Office for Mac v Pages & Numbers or the iworks suite is that if I have lots of MACROs in my existing files written in M/soft that it would be better to go for M/s Office for Mac. I understand that Macros are the automated thingys ?? I have formulae obviously inthe fairly simple spread sheets but not aware of any macros. So I guess that means ~ I could purchase either product by the sounds of it. yes? Are there any other obvious things i need to consider?
    Other INFO:
    Also, I have snow leopard on one system and Maveric ( pretty impresive!) on the other. i am slightly reluctant to upgrade the snow leopard o/s as I would have to upgrade the paralles software and probably Windows software as well in order to run an old Kitchen, drawing program that I use occaisionally. I know that one should be able to partition / and Boot camp but I really don't want to do that. I feel at this stage its not worth payingtoi up grade all these bits of software for something I rarely use. But I am open to anyones comments / views.
    Thanks.

  • Installation on a second hand imac

    Hi
    I bought a second hand IMac G4 a couple of days ago, I am having trouble installing the disc set up as it requires a password. Can anyone help me or do i have to go through the channels of contacting the seller. The seller seems to believe that there should not be a password. Help!!!!!!!

    See the post by R-C-R and the others. If the disc you have IS the grey install disk for your machine you should be able to install it without the direct use of a password. If it is some other disk for OSX not so.
    It is not clear if you are trying to install the correct way. That is to boot up the machine holding down the c key. That boots from the disk and a sort of desktop comes up, you make some menu choices and wait a while as the OS on the disk is installed. You then install third party apps and configure wireless or such.
    The above pre-supposes you can get the install disk for OSX into the machine and you don't say if you can even boot up to the desktop without the disk and so allow yourself to insert the thing. Can you? If you can that means the former owner's OS install and maybe some other things of theirs are in there and the wise move would be to clear the HD and start from fresh. That involves more than you directly ask for.
    There is a way to get a disk into the machine (other things being well) even if you cannot get to the normal desktop. That involves the use of a 'Single User' start up and a couple of command line entries. 'Single User' start up has it's risks especially for a novice, but I did use it recently to get a disk into a Mac and boot from it to install the OS as you want to do, when a builder had cut the house power and nothing else was working. In that instance we had no worries about the existing user data and configurations so chose to re-install keeping the same settings and only replaced the system proper
    Tell us more and we can help. Remember what Roam said about an Open Firmware Password. That would stop you getting to a Single User start up.
    Your last post asked about a 'newer disk'. The first answer is yes. Get Panther but first be sure you have a functioning machine with a functioning OS before you spend money on an UPGRADE.

  • Second hand iMac 20" A1224 issue

    as above, i have bought a second hand iMac. i have used disk utilities to erase any previous data but have an issue reinstalling. if i use my apple ID i get the error message regarding my Id having not purchased Lion before. now i just have a large paperweight unless i can get past this step. i fully intend on installing mountain lion, having bought an itunes card specifically for this. i was going to buy it on my mac mini and then use my ID to set up the iMac but my mac mini can not support mountain lion so, help?  it is obvious that the serial number is still linked to a previous owner as i cant add to my products in apple ID. what can i do? thanks in advance.

    I do not think you can just install Lion or Mt. Lion from a completely erased and formatted drive .
    I believe you need to purchase retail copy of OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard first, install the OS from disc, then use Software Update to update it to OS X 10.6.8, then try installing OS X 10.7 Lion.
    Format the drive using Disk Utility, format as HFS+ extended format (journaled) and use the GUID partition scheme.
    You can purchase Snow Leopard from Apple here

  • Deleted iPhoto and now I can't reinstall it -I'm using a second hand iMac so not using the Apple ID used to register it

    I had trouble updating iPhoto so I uninstalled it but now I can't reinstall it. I'm using a second hand iMac so I'm not using the Apple ID that was used to first register it. When I go to the App Store and try to download iPhoto it just says (accept) I click this but nothing happens ?
    Please help 

    Maybe you need to register the computer with Apple:

  • I baught second hand iMac and having trouble to reset to factory setting Help pls

    I baught second hand iMac and having trouble to reset to factory setting Help pls

    The previous owner left a Recovery HD partition on the drive. You cannot use it because it will only install a version of OS X that is tied to that persons Apple ID. You cannot use his/her Apple ID nor reinstall his/her copy of OS X. You must start, literally, from scratch.
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
             username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
             Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
             install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process by opening Software
             Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

    If you can't get the discs, call Apple with the serial # and ask for them. They should send them to you for a reasonable charge.

  • Hi, I have recently got myself a second hand computer MAC OS X Version 10.4.11,Processor 800 MHz PowerPC G4. Have only used windows before. Unfortunately I managed to uninstall Adobe but now can't seem to reinstall as this an older computer

    Hi, I have recently got myself a second hand computer  MAC OS X Version 10.4.11,Processor 800 MHz PowerPC G4. Have only used windows before. Unfortunately I managed to uninstall Adobe but now can't seem to reinstall as this an older computer and is not compatible with the new versions. Sorry to sound thick but really have never used Apple before. Would really appreciate any help at all. Thanks..

    Windows or apple it makes no difference, if you don't have the install discs you can't install.
    Did you buy the machine with Adobe (you don't say what adobe program you're talking about) installed? If so the vendor should have given you the discs or else it's technically a pirated copy. If you're talking about acrobat (which is free) then you should be able to find older versions on the adobe site.

    Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through iCloud.com > Find My Phone.

    There's no way around activation lock.  If you can't find the previous owner you won't be able to use it.
