My Macbook Pro *****! I have had it for 2 weeks now, got it brand new at the apple store, it freezes all the time, and reboots itself, sometimes when i start it, purple dots cover the screen and i have to hold the power button.
I have had it for 2 weeks now, got it brand new at the apple store, it freezes all the time, and reboots itself, sometimes when i start it, purple dots cover the screen and i have to hold the power button. a 2 week old computer is not supposed to do this! it wastes all its time being so flashy that it just craps out all the time. sometimes i feel like i should have stayed with my virus covered PC. at least when it shut down randomly you could turn it back on, but with the macbook pro, it just keeps restarting itself over and over. need help with this, any answers?
Here's a novel thought. Take it back to the vendor. Should have done that one week ago.

iTunes movies no longer sync from Dell laptop or MacBook Pros (both authorized devices) to iPhone 6s or iPad Air 2s after configured at Apple store yesterday. In the past I could see the movies in iTunes with the cover photo and sync to the other devices but now there is a listing a movies with no cover photos and in fact if I try to view the movie on the MacBook Pro it cannot be found unless I download it.
All I had to do was complain. I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store. I have no idea why.

I bought my Macbook Pro OS X Lion 10.7.5 in january 2012 brand new from my local apple store and i am sure they said that it would run AIRPLAY. Having just purchased apple TV and set it all up correctly I still can't connect - no AIRPLAY symbol ? pls help

You need OS X 10.8 mountain lion, mirror is a feature of that OS and you need to buy it from the app store, OS X 10.7.5 does not do it.
If you don't want to change visit www.airparrot.com a third party app that can do it.

When will the Apple stores carry 30 pin dock extensions or cables so I can use my iPad with a recessed iPod dock? It's unfortunate that the device is rendered unusable.
No one here is an employee or representative of Apple. We are all users like yourself. We cannot know when or if Apple will release any additional products.
You can leave feedback to Apple about the iPad here:

I bought an IPad Air a week ago and asked the guy at the apple store to have all my information and documents transferred from the old iPad to the Air. However my iBooks and photos are empty. Please help. Is there something I can do or I just have to go back to the store?
Using the same Apple id and Password you should be able to download purchased apps without being charged again.
I download to an iPad/iPad2/iPhone3 & iPhone4 with no problem. -

I have a Macbook Pro Early 2011 from the USA. It is now running Mavericks. I connect it to a 27" Cinema Display that I bought in China after we moved to China. Before I installed Mavericks, I could run all of the Adobe CS6 and Adobe CS5.5 applications on my Macbook Pro while connected to the cinema display. Now that I have Mavericks installed, whenever I am connected to my 27" CInema display my Adobe applications crash upon opening. I know this is a rare scenario, but does anyone have any ideas how to fix this problem? Is there a new driver that needs installed? I'd appreciate any help.
I am also having a similar issue. I used Adobe Lightroom and my whole display goes black. Even my laptop screen and the lights on the keyboard go black. I can still hear the fan running, so I assume it is just the display. This is my first Mac and I have had nothing but issues. I think I am going back to Windows after this.

This has been happening for quite some time now, and it always happens at random times. I'll simply pick up the computer or tap on it and it'll go to sleep instantly.
I would try Linc's suggestion and in addition, try zapping your PRAM. I had all sorts of erratic power management issues with my MBP when I first got it, including the keyboard backlight and screen dimming in the middle of a session for no reason. The only thing that corrected it was resetting the PRAM. Details here

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

I've broken my iphone 5 and only had it for 4months can i get a new one from apple?
i need a new LCD so i was wondering if i could get a new phone from apple
Unless it broke due to a manufacturing defect, you'll need to pay. If you previously bought AppleCare+ for it, it's $79. If you didn't, it's $269.

Not used my G5 Powermac (late 2004) for about 2 years. Was going to set it up for the lads to do school work.
However it only boots in with Installation disk, but colour dots on white screen and message comes up to reboot machine. However nothing happens apart from me keep trying. Also the numerous fans get louder and louder and louder.....
Any ideas folksCan you please provide details on the exact model?
For a start, the PRAM battery is likely dead. PRAM tells the computer which drive to start with, other basic information. Still, you can usually get the computer to start, though bad PRAM is unpredictable and could be stopping that.
Some computer models use software to control cooling fans. If there's no software commands they automatically go into high speed to prevent overheating. Your software obviously isn't loading, so runaway fans. -
I get the following error message when I connect a usb ethernet adapter to my new MacBook Pro: Unsupported - You cannot use an Apple USB Modem with this computer. I live where we only have dial-up and the Apple Store said this is what I need. In addition, when I connect the phone to the connecter it falls out, it will not click in.
Why are you using a usb ethernet adaptor? Just plug the modem into the usb port.

Trading in MacBook Pro 13 inch late 2011 for a new 2012 model
Hi! I bought a 13-inch MacBook pro late 2011 model just a week ago, on 05 June 2012, from an apple premium reseller. I have hardly used it. Now apple announced their new MacBook pro line yesterday. I went to the reseller today to know whether they would give me a 2012- model MacBook in exchange for the one I bought yesterday. They said no. They said they can only give me a new MacBook if the one I bought has manufacturing defects and if I bring it to them within 10 days of my purchase. Is the reseller following the rules of apple? Can I force them to change my machine for the new one? Pls answer me. I badly need it. Pls support your statements with relevant official links.

How do I re-download Contribute 6.5 after hard drive failed?
I upgraded to Contribute 6.5 in June but last week my MacBook Pro hard drive gave out. I'd backed everything up but for some reason my backup drive has all of my Contribute files, but not the program itself. How do I re-download? Thank you.
