840 pounds to fix my Mac! I can not believe in Apple anymore
I have used iphone, ipad and quite happy with Apple for a long time. Then, I bought a brand new Macbook air 2014.
Last Saturday, my friend drop some water on the face of my Mac ( when i am closing it down, and no liquid fell into my keyboard). So how can i think someworkng will happen?)
In Sunday, i tried to turn it on but nothing happen. Therefore, I brought it to Genius Bar- Covent Garden to ask for a help. Surprisingly, they suggest I should go to Istore to fix this and ignore to help me open it out to dry things ( U know that it is quite harmful that u leave it for a long time)
I had to book an appoitment so I came back to my home in Southampton. The Genius Bar Southampton said it is 840 pounds to fix- much more than buying a new one.
i Bought it for 3 months. So i lost everything after 3 months, and Apple did not help me to reduce the harm, Macbook is quite sensitive with water, they said that water destroyed my mainboard, hardware, keyboard( no water drop to it? just in cover) It is quite a nightmare!
UPDATED: my friend just fixed it out in 30 minutes and cost 0 pound. Can u believe that, my Mac is now run smoothly. He is working in computer engineering, and i dont have to pay money for any mainboard, keyboard, hardware,..He said that just a chip went wrong and it takes 30 minutes to fix it.
I am sorry that I have not expressed my opinion in detail. I already known that it is neccessary to pay money to fix because liquid is not guarantee in Apple 1 year polIcy. But i am not happy about Apple attitude to help me fix my problem. AND the cost is EXTREMELY high, now i cost 0 pound to fix it. And do not have to change anything.
IT is true story, u guys can check my appoitment in Apple store Genius Bar today( Southampton), and I wil show u my Mac' image now.
THank for your comment, at least u are caring about my case;)

In my network I have a Mac mini, AirPort Extreme base station and a Netgear ReadyNAS Duo v2. Everything is connected by cable. The problem is that the Mac mini can not find the NAS. Mac mini is looking for wirelessly connected devices, type TimeCapsule. How do I get my Mac mini to find the NAS and set the NAS as a source of data storage?
I have a ReadyNAS and use it as a Time Machine destination with no problems, even over WiFi. The ReadyNAS and Mac are both on the same LAN (even though the Mac is on WiFi), please check to see if your WiFi is on a different LAN to the Ethernet side of things, I have my Airport set to bridging mode so both sides of the AirPort count as the same LAN.
Next you need to check you have actually configured Time Machine in the ReadyNAS, as shipped it is initially turned off. You need to go to the ReadyNAS web management interface (FrontView) and then click on Backup on the left, and then select Time Machine. You also need to make sure Bonjour is enabled for the ReadyNAS, this is accessed by clicking on Services on the left and then selecting Discovery Services, make sure all the Bonjour options are ticked on. -
i have tried this 6+ times to "How to share music between different accounts on a single computer" on my wifes mac and can not get it to work!! On my PC no problem but on the MAC it will not work, follow the instructions to the T but no go????
It is almost as if the program does not exist on my computer. If I search for it, the only thing that comes up is the installer. I cannot find it anywhere despite the fact I have installed it numerous times, uninstalled it and conducted a fresh install, and the Adobe website checks says that it is installed.

Recharging my iPod shuffle (3rd gen.) on my 2009 iMac (OS 10.5.8) goes extremely slowly (via usb port at the back). This is mainly because recharging stops when my mac goes to sleep. I just can't believe that Apple doesn't have a sollution for this, but I haven't found it yet... What's the most efficient way of recharging?
Purchase a wall charger for it instead.

I just bought pages for my mac, I can not bold or italic,, but underlining works.
Change your font.
Some fonts do not have bold or italic and OSX will not fake them.

I have just upgrade Itunes (10.6.3.25) and now I can not see my Ipad anymore. before the upgrade it was working fine. I already tried all suggestions from the support page, except re-installing Itunes. any suggestions?

Yes. Reinstall iTunes. If that is the point at which you stopped trying the support suggestions then it makes sense to me, that you move on to the next suggestion and if reinstalling iTunes is the next suggestion, so be it.
However .... I too have issues that arise out of the blue with my iPad being recognized in iTunes and what I always do and it eventually works is to quit iTunes, restart my MacBook, and reboot my iPad.
Rebooting the iPad is the last thing that I do and only if I have no success with quitting iTunes and restarting the Mac. It may take a few tries to work, but if you are that dead set against reinstalling iTunes, then give it a try. -

I have a ipod 5th gen and i changed my password because everyone knew it. I had forgotten it and now it is fully disabled. I can not get it online anymore and i have tried everything to get it restored. Please help as I am really worried
Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
