I made a mistake and bought MacBook Pro Ret 15" on Amazon.jp. Yeah, Japanese keyboard. :(. Wont allow return.How difficult would it be to use it with a Japanese keyboard? :(
I know that there are problems with the @ sign and puctuations. What else will I be facing? Really bummed. Amazon guarentee was rejected. They reply 'that i knew what I was buying'. I just opened the box. Hasnt been turned on. So frustrated. But considering just going with it and using it as is. Living in Japan for only 3 more months.
The only thing unique about that keyboard is the symbols painted on the keys.
All other stuff can be modified in
System preferences > Languages and Text > ...
• Language: { English, Japanese, etc. } Note: British, Australian, Canadan, and US are all English for this pane
• Text: adjusts nuances of sorting, spelling, auto-Quoting
• Formats: adjusts Currency Symbols and Date ordering
• Input Sources: Makes the actual Keyboard Mapping changes Note: British, Aus, CAN, and three flavors of US English are all unique English variants

Move to Canada.
Get a mailing address and a credit card.
Change your Apple ID to the Canadian store.

What is the best way to keep an iMac and a MacBook Pro synchronized?
I've got an iMac and a MacBook Pro.
I need them to be synchronized daily (Data, documents, contacts, etc.) but I can NOT use the Cloud because of customer preferences.
I've recently bought a Time Capsule.
Can this device be used to keep both computers synchronized in an easy and non time consuming way?
If not, is there any App like "Beyond Compare" for Mac?
Thanks.Morning Acousticare,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Thunderbolt cables should not exceed three meters for maximum performance. The Apple Thunderbolt to Thunderbolt cable (2.0 m) is two meters in length.
For more information on this, take a look at this article:
About Thunderbolt to Thunderbolt cable (2.0 m)

Windows 7 computer, and my macbook pro on snow leopard don't see each other?
My windows 7 computer, and my macbook pro on snow leopard don't see each other. I have configured the windows section under the network prefrences with the required information, and still no luck. Does anyone have any sugestions for me?
Shouldn't they see each other and let me use each of their files?
Please pardon the obvious here, but have you checked to make sure that you have enabled the File Sharing option on both computers? You may have already done this, but your post did not mention this, so we can only go with the info that we have.
If you have not enabled File Sharing, I can't help on Windows, but on your Mac...
Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
Open Sharing
Enter a check mark next to File Sharing
I imagine that there is a similar setting for the Windows machine
It would be a good idea to power cycle your entire network as well to make sure that the network is sequenced correctly. Power everything down, order is not important.
Start your modem first and let it run a moment by itself
Then start your main router the same way
Continue starting each device the same way until everything is powered back up -
just bought macbook pro and want to download purchases I have already made from itunes apps but when it says downloaded can't find it. I have run a search and found it in my mac but unable to open or do anything?? Do not understand what is happening.

so how do I get the same apps for my macbook pro? or is that not possible?
Not sure if that same Application is designed for Mac Os x, Search for Applications on App Store instead of iTunes on your Macbook Pro, as Applications available on iTunes Store on a Macbook is designed to work only on iOS Device like iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch and whatever is available on App Store on Mac is designed for Mac Os x. -
Just bought MacBook Pro, cannot connect to the Internet at home. I have wifi at home and my iPad and cell phone can connect to the wifi
*** When you post for help, please state which OS X is installed.
If you aren't sure, click About this Mac from your Apple menu
Troubleshooting advice can depend on that information. -

Bought macBook Pro a year ago and it came with Quicktime Player. Just bought Quicktime Pro and am having trouble downloading it. Do I need it? How do I download it?
You don't download QuickTime Pro directly; you download QuickTime 7 and apply the code you bought to it.

Hi, I have bought macbook pro a year back and it has 4 GB RAM and its mid 2012 model can u tell me whether if i give the macbook for upgradation of memory will they do it and what would be the cost.
You need to take your MacBook Pro to your Apple store genius bar and check that they will do the upgrade for you...price for 4 GB memory used to be $200 but you will have to check with them for the current cost.
You can also check with OWC, http://www.macsales.com and see what their cost is and decide if you want to do it yourself. Cost will be about half of that at the Apple store. -
Hi I bought macbook Pro Retina 1.3 from India on the 29th March 2014 and currently I am in Norway. And suddenly I can see the inside display screen is broken. Nothing from outside and the main top screen. I got by email from the shop in India, Mumbai where I purchased it and I have the photos of the screen where do I upload kindly urgently do let me know. It is under warranty till today and I need your urgent details so that I can upload required datas and I shall go back to India on the 5th April 2015 hence I need to get from you how to go about. Thank you. Uday Kumar Ghosh +47 455 48 953
Thank you. I did contact Apple Norway and they already raised a case no based on which I shall go and hand over my mac pro retina 13inch. As per Apple Norway, as the case has been registered before the expiry of the warranty, Apple India to accept the warranty as well and get the set repaired under warranty. Thank you.

I just bought macbook pro with 10.8.3 os. When i start the system, all applications automatically start up as well! How can I turn them off. I checked the user settings and no application is set tom open automatically!
You have 14 days to return the computer w/no questions asked. Plus you have 90 days of FREE phone tech support on top of your standard 1 year warranty unless you also purchased AppleCare which gives you an additional 2 years of coverage plus FREE phone support.
Strongly suggest that you take FULL advantage of the above before it runs out. Let Apple deal w/the problems. -

i bought macbook pro and update my osx, i already have the codes and install mountain lion and its been 2 days now and still downloading mode
Disable anti virus software.
Apps such as Little Snitch, Net Nanny, and Hands Off can prevent apps from downloading including Mountain Lion as well as third party download managers.
Keep in mind, for downloading Mountain Lion from the App Store, a high speed (broadband) internet connection is strongly recommended by Apple as noted here > iTUNES STORE - MAC APP STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS
If you need to reinstall OS X or repair the the startup disk using Mountain Lion Recovery, that requires broadband access to the internet via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection. OS X is downloaded over the internet form Apple when OS X Recovery is used for reinstallation.
