Possible San Francisco Bay Area Assistance Needed

Hello,
I'm in a bit of a jam and it's possible (about 50/50) that I may need a bit of assistance in the Bay Area next Thursday or Friday.
Apple is likely going to replace the motherboard on my Mac Pro this week. Unfortunate. It is covered under Apple Care, but the delay impacts my April 19 deadline for my film.
I have about 24 gig of video data from a Sandisk UDMA 32 gig card that I would like to offload so that I can shoot my final footage next weekend. I have a 32 gig thumbdrive we can transfer it to.
The footage was shot on a Canon 5D and I would like to borrow someone's PrPro software here in the Bay Area, if necessary.
Alternatively, I could Fed ex the card and pay for return fedex as well.
Thanks for considering this.

Thanks Hunt.
Looks like I better go out and purchase a copy of the hilarious book "My First Movie" an interview with 20 famous directors about the fiascoes and adventures that accompanied their first film:

I backed up my media, but didn't have a spare MacPro when its motherboard went down!

Recommended Apple repair facilities in San Francisco Bay Area?

The Apple Store just told me that I need to have the ExpressCard slot replaced on my MacBook Pro. They said I need to take it to a 3rd party certified repair center to have the slot's metal frame replaced, but had no recommendations on where to take it unless I wanted Apple to ship it away for me.
I'd like to physically bring one in so I don't have to have the risks, costs, and most importantly time delays associated with shipping.
Does anyone have any recommendations on really good, and really fast-turnaround repair centers I can take it? I live in Foster City, and work in San Francisco. Those locations are preferred, but I will also go somewhere in Marin or the Fremont area.
Note that my MacBook Pro IS under warranty, so I'm looking for certified repair facilities that will conduct the service under the terms of my warranty.
Cheers,
Dan

Let me get this clear... so something is broken that was in your computer when you got it from apple.... its something that "they" had installed in their factory.
If so... than they are pulling your leg.... You have to get back to them and make clear that this is their problem Not yours..... If you have it repaired somewhere els they can always claim that the problem could come from that.
Stop putting all your trust in Apple and take control.
So to sum it up again.... If the thing that is broke (what ever it is) was in the machine when you got it from apple, they have to repair it... there is no discussion about it.
If they are telling you they are not allowed to order something they are full of s*.... why would they not be allowed to buy anything.
Don't worry I have had dealing with people over the phone and in the store similar to this and I just ask if they can give me someone who is allowed to make real decisions and they will always comply with you.
There is a policy to make it your problem first before they make it their own.
I hope this helps and that you get your machine fixed soon.

Is Edge working anywhere in the San Francisco Bay Area, M-F between 9-5?

I'm in Oakland, right off the freeway. It was up and running (albeit slowly) this morning, was able to send out an email at 7:43 A.M..
Nothing when I tried it at 11:00, nothing now at noon. Paying $20 month to AT&T for their Edge service seems crazy.
Is anyone else out there still having EDGE problems? (Especially, anyone in the Bay Area?) Trying to get on here from 9-5 is pretty much impossible.

Shelia, I live and work in downtown San Francisco (Russian/Nob Hill) and have no problem connecting to Edge. It is working just fine, albiet a bit slow but it does work fine. If you'll take a look at the AT&T Wireless Coverage viewer for the SF Bay Area you'll be able to better pinpoint the reliability of EDGE.

San Francisco Bay Area BART

Yesterday morning prior to heading out via BART for MacWorld I downloaded schedule and map data for the iPod.
In trying to follow their install instructions below they ended up making no sense to me as I did not see what they say should be seen. Just wondering if anyone may happen to know how to add data like this to the 'notes' portion of the iPod? TIA
Follow below are BART's instructions with their downloaded software:
Transferring BART Schedules to your iPod
Transfer the schedules into your "Notes" folder using your iPod's external disk feature:
Download "BQPiPodSchedules.zip" and decompress it with WinZip (PC) or
StuffIt Expander (Mac);
Enable disk use on your iPod and mount it as an external disk;
In Mac desktop or Windows Explorer, drag the four data folders ("BART weekdays," "BART Saturdays," "BART Sundays" and "BART Stations") into your iPod's "Notes" folder;
Unmount your iPod and you're done!
To view BART schedules and station information, scroll to "Extras" then "Notes." Select a day of the week, then the station, then view departure times by line direction. Install all the files or just the days and stations you need. As with other notes files, it may take a while to load the first time. For more information on using your iPod's Notes function or enabling Disk Use, check out your Apple iPod documentation.
Transferring the BART System Map to your iPod
Transfer the map into your photo library just like any other photo using Apple iTunes:
Depending upon your Apple iPod model, download "BQPiPodColor.zip", "BQPiPodNano.zip" or "BQPiPodVideo.zip" and decompress it with WinZip (PC) or StuffIt Expander (Mac);
In iTunes, with your iPod connected, select your iPod in the source list (lower right) then click the "Photos" tab;
Select the iPhoto album you just created (Mac) or select "Syncronize photos from..." and choose the BART System Map folder;
Click OK and the images will be transferred to your iPod.
To view the BART System Map, scroll to "Photos" then "Photo Library". For more information on transferring or viewing digital images on your iPod, check out your Apple iPod documentation.

1. Download StuffIt Expander to your computer and use it to open the downloaded file.
2. Follow the instructions in this article.
3. Double-click the iPod icon on the desktop and look for the Notes folder on the iPod; if it doesn't show up, start typing its name or scroll the window until it comes into view. When it is open, drag the contents of the folder created in step 1 to it.
4. Control-click the iPod in the Finder and choose Eject from the menu which appears.

Only in Firefox browser when a person types in Buddhist Church of San Francisco they are taken to a link that leads them to a Canadian pharmacy. Why?

I work at the Buddhist Church of San Francisco.
When others trying to find our website search in Modzilla: "Buddhist Church of San Francisco" They are taken to a link that looks like our home page bcsfweb.org. When they click on the link, they are taken to a Canadian pharmacy. I've been getting calls that we've been hacked. When you type bcsfweb.org into the url bar, our site comes up. When you search Buddhist Church of San Francisco in Chrome or Safari you are taken to our home page. It's just Modzilla. I've notified them through email and haven't received a response. I've left a voicemail on an 800 customer service number no response.
Any ideas why this might be happening or how to navigate to the right office to notify Modzilla of this problem?
Thank you,
MBrown

Yes.
Your website's server has been hacked.
This happens when you click a search result on the Google results page and the referrer is enabled (network.http.sendRefererHeader = 2).
*https://www.google.com/search?q=http://bcsfweb.org/
So you need the check the DNS servers.

LTE- San Francisco- Speeds are horrible

When I first got a VZ 4GLTE jet pack, I replaced my home internet over a year ago. I was getting speeds of over 10Mb/ 2Mb up at my home in the Haight area of SF 94117. The last 3 months speeds have been horrible. I've tested speeds in different parts of the city using Root metrics and Speedtest.net on both my Jetpack and my HTC DNA phone. I now receive 1-2Mb/1 if I'm lucky. From July 18th-yesterday I was averaging 384K and for half of sunday not getting any speeds.
My performance in downtown SF has also deteriorated. I rarely get anything above 3Mb from my office on Pine and Front. Why am I paying a premium for Vz LTE . I've been getting the same performance as Sprint's 3G. Many of my peers in tech share the same frustration at Vz's lack of capacity planning for LTE. Please advise on what is being done.
Thank You
Mike

Bought Mac Pro in San Francisco and I'm now located in remote area in China. Need to know does a Mac Pro 15 play Blue Ray Disc from History Channel. My unit rejects them.

Bought a Mac Pro 15 in San Francisco, but I'm now located in a remote area of China. I would like to know if the Mac Pro 15 can play a commercially produced Blue Ray disc from the History Channel. My unit rejects them. Other disc by Pixar, Disney which are not designated Blue Ray work. I was told when I bought the Mac Pro it play

No they don't unless You buy an external BD-burner with Playback program (if they ever exist).
As it looks like Apple is leaving the DVD disk format too so Blu-Ray is not on the list as I read Mac Worlds and alike.
I use a PlayStation 3 - and it works very well.

people complaining about problems installing an office over another office are (dare i say it) stupid. it makes absolutely no sense installing one over the trial version. just uninstall the trial and you'll be fine. every single time.
as for problem with uninstalling mcafee (or any other antivirus, for that matter, just download the uninstaller from the software company e.g. http://service.mcafee.com/FAQDocument.aspx?id=TS100507 for mcafee.
that said i believe you get to choose if you want mcafee and/or office when you go through the inital boot, the "on-screen instructions"
you can slow down the odd via power manager
and thanks for the tips on changing the reg to have the user profiles somewhere else!

Live in the San Francisco area and want to participate in an Adobe usability study?

Adobe is conducting usability studies in San Francisco from 6/23 to 25. If you are interested, please respond to
https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/WKC8736

eh?
wat is a usability study?... are you concerned that Audition is not "usable" lol...that sounds rather odd...I think it's quite usable, in fact I have no idea what exactly what would prevent one from using it?

I bought an iPhone in San Francisco and I live in Ecuador, I need a place to claim the world apple warranty in Ecuador, because I have a problem with the screen

I bought an iPhone in San Francisco and I live in Ecuador, I need a place to claim the world apple warranty in Ecuador, because I have a problem with the screen

There is no "world apple warranty" on iPhones. As paulcb points out, the warranty is only valid in the country of origin. You will have to bring it to the U.S. or send it to someone you know there to get it serviced.
