my confusion is that shall i consider the APPLECARE PLAN....the plan is almost 20% of the laptops cost....Will spending so much money be worth it
Like any other insurance, it's only worth it if you have a problem. I've purchased it on my "high risk" Macs and not purchased on the others. So far I've never needed it.

I have had my mac book pro for about a year and a half and suddenly my dvd player will not play DVDs and i can not play alot of things on full screen. Does anybody know how i can fix this?
This could be several things, but let's get the obvious ones out of the way, first:
1. Judging from your text, there's no problem with anything stuck in the mechanism; it's more an issue of no being to put in a disk. In other words, you're sure that there isn't a disk stuck in your MBP. (That happens a lot for all computers.)
2. Go to Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility, and repair the disk. This should take under 10 minutes.
3. Perform the procedure outlined here:

4. After you're done, leave a message here as to the status of the repair. -
i was interested in buying a mac book pro for uni this year.. i'm not 18 yet so do i still get any discount at all?
I think that an acceptance letter from any university would entitle you to a university discount.
You may want to check with the Apple site in Australia.

Think parental controls have been installed on Mac book pro
Hello,
Does anyone know how to check if parental controls have been installed on my Mac. I have a lot of issues going to certain websites and my safari was having issues loading. Plus I had weird files on my disk that would set to different numbers. I'm not a child and believe someone linked my laptop. Please help remove controls.Privateperson87,
to check if any user is under parental controls, log in as your administrative user and open the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences. It will show your users on the left-hand side of the window, and whether those users are administrative, “standard” (i.e. non-administrative), or “managed” (i.e. under parental controls). -
I would like to be able to use my MaBook Pro for cashing checks lie the I phone and I pad. Why isn't this feature included?
This has nothing to do with Apple. As BobTheFisherman indicated, your bank needs to create an App for the Mac to do this. These types of applications tend to be limited to mobile devices as they are a bit easier to maneuver for taking photos.

Can I connect an external video camera to a mac book pro for viewing live video so I don't have to use the little screen on the camera?

• Only if your video camera supports it. Depending on how your camera works, you may need to add preview software to your Mac to use this feature.
• Alternatively, your camera may also be able to record directly into your Mac while you are monitoring the Mac's display.
• If you are using a consumer camcorder that supports HDMI monitoring, a small HDTV might be an simpler solution than your Mac. For an example of how this is done, see http://youtu.be/GVpSkZD6qE4.
• The retailer who sold you your video camera may have other suggestions.
• If you need more professional results, an external preview monitor will offer more capability on compatible cameras.

My Mac Book Pro will be 4 years old in Sept. I now have Snow Leopard and bought an IPhone 4S this week. I know I need Lion to use ICloud. Can I upgrade to Lion with a computer this old?
As long as it meets the minimum requirements:
Lion System Requirements
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
At least 2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space on hard drive
Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply. -
Hi I have just bought a mac book pro 2ghz 8gb ram with haswell.also it's running maverick. I am wanting to start using logic but does it work ok with maverick everything I read says it's no good please help
Which version of Logic? I have 9, but I've yet to install it. I'm just creating the images of the disks atm to install them on my Haswell. Will let you know how that performs.
Logic 10 would most certainly work fine though. -
I already have a apple ID for my iphone5. And recently I have purchased a new mac book pro.
I already have a apple ID for my iphone5. And recently I have purchased a new mac book pro.
My questions are that
1: Should I use a existing apple ID or create a new one?
2: If using my existing apple ID, then will there be any issue at later stages?
3: How will I be able to share the data between my existing iphone5 & new mac book?
4: Or will it be better to create a new apple ID for my newly purchase mac book pro?
Please suggest?Use the existing Apple ID, so you can sync your data between your phone and your Mac.
No.
iCloud does the job for you. Both your iPhone and your Mac should have asked you to enable it during their first setup. See -> http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
You do not have to create a new Apple ID for your MacBook Pro. If you do that, you may have problems syncing your purchases. -

Simply start a new catalog:

I have bought a new Mac Book Pro, and I need to know how I can move Aperture from my old Mac Book to the new one..
It begins with: F-285-NER-151-QBQ-and continues with 5 more 3 or 4 letters/numbers..
Yes, that is the number. And what version of Aperture have you installed? The same version as on your old Mac?
But it don´t work on my new Mac...
In what way does it not work? Does it require you to enter a licence number for Aperture 2 as well? That will be necessary, if your serial number is an upgrade serial number. Then you will have to enter all previous numbers as well.
Or does Aperture not accept the number as correct? Then check the spelling; some letters are easily confused like "I" and "1" and "O" and "0". Do not use the number pad to enter the numbers.
See: Troubleshooting Professional Application Serial Numbers
