What is the tax percentage on the Macbook Pro with Retina Display in the US

I am interested in buying the new Macbook Pro with Retina Display. I would just like to know what the tax percentage of the price is when buying in the US???

The price quoted does not include tax which is determined by the state/city where sold.  There is not a Federal tax as in Europe with the VAT.
State taxes can run 3-10% or somewhere in that range.

    Actually you could get student discount from apple and a 10% dicksmith with limited time and I think jb hi fi gives even better discount. But lets see what other people think?

  • Is there a way to digitize audio using the headphone input on the 15-inch (late 2013) Macbook Pro with Retina display?

    I'd like to digitize audio from a minidisc player into my 15-inch (late 2013) Macbook Pro with retina display, but can't see a way to change the internal mic input.  I understand that previous MacBooks allowed the headphone jack to double as a mic input, but mine doesn't seem capable of switching.  I've tried using a mini to mini cable, with no luck, and also tried using a headset splitter adapter (3.5 mm 4-pin to 2x3-pin 3.5 mm headset splitter adapter from Amazon) because I read that that would allow me to plug in headphones and input audio.  But in both cases, the only "input" available in my sound preferences is the built-in internal microphone.  Am I missing something?  Is there a way to digitize audio through the headphone jack? 

    Not likely. headphone jacks are usually output only devices unless specifically stated to support input, and even then, it may not be audio input that they support, but merely control input for volume and such.
    You can get a USB audio input instead. i.e:

  • How can I tell the differences between the new MacBook Pro with retina display and the old MacBook Pro with retina display by looking

    I'm just wondering the differences between the new MacBook Pro with retina display which was just released in October 2013 and the old MacBook Pro with retina display.

    Thank you for the reply! As you said they looked exactly the same, so I'm not able to tell the differences just by looking, right? I'm thinking to buy a new 13-inch MacBook Pro with retina display, but I'm not buying the MacBook in Apple Store, I'm buying it in other shops, how can know whether they are not selling me the old model of MacBook Pro with retina display?

  • What kind of longevity can I expect from the SSD in a new MacBook Pro with Retina Display?

    Hi all,
    I recently ordered a new MacBook Pro with the Retina Display. This will be both my first computer and my first Mac that uses a SSD as the primary storage device. As the title of this post suggests, what I would like to know is what sort of lifespan/longevity can I expect to get out of it? My current MacBook Pro was manufactured in 2007 and has a stock 160GB Fujitsu hard drive that has been fantastic for me over the past 4-5 years. It continues to run like a champ, and I would hope that a brand new SSD would be able to last at least that long. Given that the new retina MBPs cannot be upgraded or (easily) user-serviced, I am somewhat curious to know whether or not Apple's new proprietary SSD modules will give out/slow to a crawl before/after my new machine becomes completely obsolete. I have been searching for articles published within the past few months on whether or not the current crop of SSDs on the market are more reliable than those introduced a year or two ago, but alas, I haven't had much luck. Perhaps it is still too early to tell?
    I found a few discussion threads on here somewhere where some users indicated that their original MacBook Airs, or other SSD-equipped MacBooks, were still performing quite well and responsively after a few years of use. Can anyone substantiate this for me? How long have you been using your SSD(s) in your Mac(s), and do you think the newer models will be able to last several years? I would greatly appreciate any insight.

    While I think your concern is legitimate (it was mine too), I think to some extent, how long they last will be up to you. The individual cells in the flash media in an SSD have limited life spans, and SSD controllers have a variety of techniques to spread that wear around evenly (wear leveling). That wear is exacerbated by the controller having to erase a whole block of data when even just one page needs to be changed, and if not all the data in the block is still valid, more data than necessary gets moved (write amplification). To provide some extra room for all this reshuffling of data, SSD manufacturers build in extra space that's inaccessible to the user (over-provisioning), but it typically runs about 7%. (This is a good discussion of the inner workings of all this)
    If you stuff your SSD full of files, so that there's very little room to do all this rearranging, I think you'll experience the slowdown you're concerned about. TRIM, which Apple's SSD's support, will help, but you can too. Allow plenty of free space on your SSD and perhaps partition it so that there is free space outside the partition (check this out to see what a difference it can make). You can't use it but the controller can as an extension of the built-in over-provisioning.
    You also mention that you "will most likely use it to record several tracks and store my growing library of songs and videos." Why not instead use an external SSD connected via USB 3.0 for storage? They're relatively cheap, very fast, and keep the space on your internal working drive free. A BootCamp partition would also take up space, so you might consider using Windows in a Virtual Machine instead. VMware Fusion or Parallels would be installed on the internal SSD but the virtual machine files could  go on the external.
    In any case, your data is more important than your SSD, so back up, back up, back up.

  • What exactly does the AppleCare cover for MacBook Pro with Retina Display?

    I purchased the extended protection plan for my MacBook Pro with Retina Display 15" and my question is what exactly does it cover in what kind of situations (i.e. viruses, damaged ports, damaged charger, etc.)? I want to be able to take full advantage of the protection plan since it was a pretty big whole in my wallet.

    AppleCare covers all the problems you have with your MacBook Pro with Retina display and the peripherals which came with it (your charger) if you have a hardware problem that you didn't cause. For example, after 2 or 3 years and 1000 charges, OS X says that your battery has to be replaced: in this case, you have to pay for the battery, because batteries have got a lifetime, and Unibody Macs batteries have got an average lifetime of about 1000 charges.
    However, if the RAM gets damaged and you haven't done anything to cause it, you will get your computer repaired or replaced for free. AppleCare in a MacBook Pro with Retina display is very important, because near all the parts are soldered into the logic board and repairs are expensive

  • Can the hard drive in my macbook pro with retina be upgraded?

    Can the hard drive in my macbook pro with retina display be upgraded to a larger hard drive?  I have a 2.6 Ghz processor, 8 GB of Memory.  I have a 250 GB drive and would like a larger drive. Thx.

    There are two answers to this:
    No, if you want to keep your warranty on your product by doing it yourself.
    Yes, if you consider using a IT pro (not Apple) which can give you an warranty on the work done.
    Official bottom line: Apple does not support this.

  • Loose Screen on Macbook Pro with Retina Display

    I ordered my Macbook Pro with Retina display on the very day Apple announced the release in 2012; I received it about a month afterwards and I soon noticed that the screen was slightly loose. It did not bother me at the time because it jiggled only slightly, but it has been progressively getting loose to the point where it is really annoying me. I am no longer under Apple Care so I am worried that Apple will charge me an outrageous amount of money for the repair. Does anyone have a prior similar experience to tell me about how much it would cost?

    Call your local Apple Store and ask them. Or take it in and they will give you an estimate. Cost depends on what is actually wrong.
    Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

  • MacBook Pro with Retina Display Case?

    I recently purchased the new mid-2014 15" MacBook Pro with Retina Display, and I wanted to buy a protective case in case of bumps, scratches, marks, etc. I bought the Tech21 Impact Snap Case, and I'm pretty sure it's making my computer overheat, as the keyboard and unibody feel much more warm to the touch when the case is on. Has anyone else experienced this problem with this particular case? Does anyone have recommendations for cases that protect the MacBook Pro but don't interfere with ventilation/cause it to overheat? Thanks so much!

    Have you checked the Speck smart-shell cases . But regarding the increasing heat they will not help as well. I know that MacBooks are designed as aluminum in order to give the heat out of the body, but the cases prevent it to some degree. They work as an insulating agent rather to help the heat get out. I would recommend to use a good carrying bag to protect your new device while travelling. Not much will happen while it is at your desk when you are using.

    No one here works for Apple nor does Apple visit this message board.  We are all end users like yourself helping each other out. 
    "Official" Apple "replacement" announcements will be listed on their website and possibly on their Knowledge Base website.
    Check the All Programs website too.

    You can either contact Apple Care since you are still under warranty or click on the "Contact Us" link at the bottom of this website.
