AntiGlare switch with Glossy?

I'm going to buy my friends 17" MBP off him soon. It as an antiglare display, I was wondering if Apple could replace it with a glossy display (I like the way the black border looks with the keys lol)? If they can, does it cost anything (has 3 year AppleCare)?

No they won't replace it.
If you don't want the anti-glare display Mac, sell it online to someone who requires it as they can't use any glossy displays. Mobile film producers like the 17" with it's 1920 x 1200 anti-glare as it shows their 1920 x 1080 HD video pixel for pixel.
Anti-glare displays look better than even the new MBP-R with 75% glare reduction, shows HD video better and sharper too as it's not sized up to meet the whopping 2880 x 1800 display.
I like the way the black border looks with the keys lol
The anti-glare display can be used in nearly any location and the screen is clear and sharp with no glare or reflections.
That's it's prime advantage. Your not going to be using the bezel or even noticing it anymore, rather looking at the screen and if you can see what's on it or not.
The slight bezel color difference is nothing (it can be colored black by ColorWare if it really bothers you), after a few days and the "new car experience" wears off you won't even care as you get used to it and really never see it.
Supposedly iFixit was offering black replacement bezels, don't know if that is still in effect or not.
The long lasting factor of anti-glare screens is you can use it outside, near the pool, on the bus, in planes and classes with no glare.
I get tons of compliments on the clarity of my anti-glare screen over others with glossy displays.

  • Using Catalyst 3550 Switch with Linksys Home Router and Cable Internet

    I've about pulled what little hair I have out of my head on this one, and need some configuration help.
    I have a Cisco Catalyst 3550 switch with five Windows 7 desktops, an Avaya PBX and five Avaya IP phones attached.  All of these devices are on a 192.168.0.0/24 subnet, and are communicating properly.  I will refer to this as network # 1. I also have SEPARATE network, we'll call network # 2, using AT&T ADSL service and a Netgear 4-port/wireless router/ADSL modem combo device, which is functioning properly with a couple of other Windows 7 desktops over its own wired Ethernet network, using DHCP, and also on a 192.168.0.0/24 subnet.  I thought it would be a simple integration, just plugging one of the 3550's ports to one of the DSL router's ports, in order to give the five Windows 7 desktop computers on network # 1 internet access via the DSL modem. Guess I was wrong.  When I connect the two switches together, although I get a good connectivity (green lights on both ports) and am able to ping the DSL router's gateway address (192.168.0.252) from network # 1's computers, the computers on network # 1 cannot access the internet. Also, the working computers on network # 2 lose their internet access as long as the two switches are connected together. I am not a Cisco guru, but there's got to be a way to make this scenario work.  Can someone provide me with a 3550 configuration that will allow me to extend my internet service from network # 2 on the DSL router to my 3550 switch and their computers?  Here's what I am looking for:
    INTERNET ---> ADSL MODEM ---> NETGEAR ROUTER ---> CISCO 3550 SWITCH ---> NETWORK DEVICES WITH INTERNET ACCESS

    The Netgear router is probably what's doing the natting. Is the 3550 configured for routing or is it straight L2? If you have the 3550 configured as L3, then it's going to be easy to do what you want. Just add a static route on the Netgear to point the subnet that it doesn't know about to the 3550. For example, if the Netgear is addressed at 192.168.1.1 and the Cisco 3550 is addressed at 192.168.1.2, but it also knows about the 192.168.0.0/24 (separate vlan), then you would put a static route on your Netgear for 192.168.0.0/24 to go to 192.168.1.2.
    The way that I would do it is to create a separate vlan on the 3550 and assign an address to it. Once you do that, make the port that the other switch connects to an access port of that vlan. (It would need to be on the same subnet as the existing equipment.) All of your devices would use it as a default gateway and then you would do the rest as above. You could also use RIP between the Netgear and Cisco if you can't do static routing.

  • After installing an update I am no longer able to hear sound out of my speakers. A red light comes on where the headphone jack is. I have already attempted to trip to switch with a wooden toothpick in the headphone jack but have not had luck.

    after installing an update I am no longer able to hear sound out of my speakers. A red light comes on where the headphone jack is. I have already attempted to trip to switch with a wooden toothpick in the headphone jack but have not had luck.

    Have you gone into system prefs nad made sure that the headphone port is set to audio out. And not audio in.
    Also make sure that you are selecting built in speakers for your audio output.
    If that does not fix it try doing a Pram reset.
    Shut your mac down.
    Press the startup button.
    Hold down the following keys. Command Option P and R. Wait till you hear the chime 2 times. Then let go. See if that fixes it.

  • Toggle switches with if else

    I am trying to toggle various switches based off of others and am wondering how I can go about this. For example, if switch A is on, B should toggle off. If I toggle B on, A should toggle off. Any help in doing this would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Thank you for an easy question..... 
    There's a mode in the Switch options that allows you to create a single switch with two channels, where only one will be on.

  • Change a 3560 Switch with Lifetime Waranty

    A simple question:
    Our client has 3560X Switches with a limited lifetime warranty. The Cisco Partner with whom they had the contract before bought the equipment, and they did not end up on good terms. One of the devices died the other day. My question is - how do we replace it now?
    Thanks

    I wish... here is the answer I got from TAC: "in this case there is nothing we can do to replace it as per Cisco policies and procedures customer has to engage his reseller for support."
    So disappointing... Now I need to call the client and tell them they need to throw the lifetime warranty switch away and buy a new one... 

  • HDMI switching with YV box - help?

    I am now in the unfortunate position of having a TV with only one HDMI input but currently have two boxes (YouView and NowTV) that output HDMI. The one scart input is used by the DVD player and I'm aware of scart-switch problems where YV boxes are concerned too.
    I bought a Duronics HDMI auto-switcher, it has three inputs and one output. I connected it up and the NowTV box displayed its bouncing logo fine. I switched on the YV box and got a pink screen. I tried unplugging the NowTV box from the mains, unplugging the HDMI lead etc. Cycling through the inputs using the manual switch - still the same pink screen, turned box on-off etc.
    Has anyone managed to use a HDMI switcher and if so how or which one and if it does work, does it always work without a problem? 
    For info: I have a BT supplied box (the first one they sent out, Humax ..), power set to the quicker starting one (eco-mode: Low??)

    I use a Thor combined HDMI/Optical switch with the YV box with no problem. Occasionally see a flash of pink when it switches then it settles down.
    Does this happen if you switch first before turning on the YV box (does your auto-switcher let you manually override to do this)?
    Have you re-tried plugging the HDMI lead direct into the TV as it maybe just a co-incidence this started happening when you introduced the switch?
    One other thing I suggest you try is swapping the HDMI leads between the YV box and the Now TV device.

  • Operating a SG200-08 switch with case removed.

    I am going to be putting an SG200-08 (8 port switch) inside a 2U rackmount chassis.
    To enhance cooling I thought I would remove the outer case.
    Are there, or would there be any issues with using the switch with the cover removed?
    Thanks
    Glen

    Hi Glen, the first issue would be, the warranty is void and you're not entitled to any support. The second issue would be static electricity and environmental concerns. The third issue would likely be your property insurance.
    It is highly against recommendation to alter or modify these units.

  • Two Switches with same MAC+Priority running STP

    Hi
    what will happen if two switch with same MAC-ADDRESS and same STP priority will run STP , how will elect to the root bridge ???? how the STP process will handle this situation?
    thanx

    Well, first off, no two switches (or switchports) will have the same MAC (if they do, you're buying switches from the wrong, very bad place).
    Every port of the switch will have (at least) one MAC of it's own.
    Given the same priority for all switches/bridges on the LAN, the lowest switch/bridge MAC on the LAN will win as the root.
    VLANS take on the MAC of the administrative interface ("CPU"): i.e., xxxx.xxxx.5000, the first port (i.e., fa0/1) is xxxx.xxxx.5001, the second (fa0/2) is xxx.xxxx.5002, and so on
    If you do a "show interface", the MAC / bia is displayed in the second line.
    Good Luck

  • Limit switches with MID-7604

    I am trying to integrate a forward and reverse limit switch with a linear actuator. I need the actuator to find the forward limit, offset from the switch enough the disengage the switch, stop there while another task is occuring, then retract to the reverse limit, and finally offset from the reverse switch enough to disengage the switch.
    I'm able to get this procedure to work one time through when the driver is just turned on, but after it's gone through the procedure more than once, the actuators no longer offset. I'm defining the offset amount in Measurement and Automation Explorer. It appears that the "find reference" VI longer finds the forward and reverse limits after the first time because if I probe the output of the "check reference" VI, the value is false even when the actuator has stopped on the limit switch.
    Is there something I need to clear after each cycle? Any suggestions would be great. 

    Hello,
    Do you have any data acquisition board? You will need one to capture the signal and process in labview.
    If you don´t have one, you can search in NI website. The NI has several models.
    Best regards.

  • Can we have 3 way vertical toggle switch, with unstable position at top, neutral position in center and stable position at bottom. the shape of the switch should be same as that of vertical toggle switch.

    Avon,
    You've asked the same question and received several replies in two recent threads here and here.
    Rather than start a third thread, it would be best to just respond in one of them with details as to your problems with the proposed solutions (e.g. use of picture control).

  • Can I Stack Switches with differents Part Numbers? Is it possible??

    Hi,
    I have a doubt, I need to buy 4 Switches Cisco 3750-X, but 2 with UTP/RJ-45 Ports, and 2 with STP capability.
    My question is, for example, Can I stack 2 WS-C3750X-48T-E and 2 WS-C3750X-24S-E??

    The only limitation of stacking different 3750X models is the feature set of the installed IOS.
    I.e.:  "The Cisco Catalyst 3750-X Series Switches with LAN Base feature set can only stack with other Cisco Catalyst 3750‑X Series LAN Base switches. A mixed stack of LAN Base switch with IP Base or IP Services features set is not supported."

  • The # keys on macbook switched with leters below it.

    A friend's Macbook number keys are switched with the letter key below it (pressing 1 shows a Q).  She says it happened on its own and no one messed with it.  It's a few years old, not sure on specs and OS beyond that. I'm thinking its a simple software fix and not a hardware problem. Any suggestions?

  • L2 or l3 switch with NAC appliance

    Hi,
    I am planning for deploying NAC appliance in OOBVG mode. For the access layer, L2 switches are selected (2960). If I change the L2 access switches with L3 (3560 or 3750) would this add more manageability to the access layer by NAC?
    Regards,
    Mladen

    Thanks.
    The document "Cisco NAC Appliance - Clean Access Manager Installation and Configuration Guide" says:
    "In out-of-band Real-IP or NAT gateway deployment, the client IP address has to change when the port is changed from the Auth VLAN to the Access VLAN."
    So the clients will have to receive TCP/IP settings via DHCP twice, which I don't think is client satisfactory.
    If the NAC is in OOBVG mode, are there any NAC features, which are not supported (IP filtering rules, access policies, and any other traffic handling mechanisms)?
    Regards,
    Mladen

  • Connecting two Nexus switches with link

    Hi,
    I would like to connect two nexus switches with a link. Like one c5020 and one c5548p. How do i need to configure the ports at both the switches which will be joined with a fiber cable.
    For MDS switches such links becomes E-port and fabric is merged. Not sure what happenes at the Nexus swictches. Any input will be appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Do you have fc modules in each nexus? If so, they act much like the MDS 9148. All ports should be default auto speed and auto switchport mode. Insert fc-sfp's and a regular multimode fc cable between them. Default mode is fc switch.
    If that doesn't work, configure the mode on each port as E.
    Once done, the fc switch portion of each nexus will merge.

  • Small/cheap switch with EtherType 0x9100 / tunneling? 2960G?

    I have a pair of 2960G switches with vlans I'd like shared over a circuit provided by Yipes. Yipes says in order to pass my tags unmolested I need to hand them ethertype 0x9100 instead of 0x8100. Apparently the command to set this for an interface is
    dot1q tunneling ethertype
    I only see it mentioned in the docs for 10000 or 12000 series hardware. Can my little 2960G switches pass 0x9100 over the trunk port? If not, what will do it?
    Thanks,
