    Dear Customer Service:
    It is very frustrating for me. My Visa account keeps getting declined at Apple. I used this very same Visa card on Amazon with no problem. I checked my status for
    the card and it is still all good. My friends and I buy a lots of Apple applications on iTune.
    We have the correct CVV2, Expiration Date and Billing address, but you keeps declining us. Please fix this problem for me. The issuing bank for this card is Techcombank, one of the largest banks in Vietnam. According to the bank, the transaction is processed in the US. This is a legitimate Visa card.
    Please let me know as soon as possible. Apple does a disservice to its brand name by declining legitimate Visa account holders from using the cards in Vietnam.
    Sincerely,
    <Edited by Host>

    Just as a warning, your credit card number has been sent in the clear to probably thousands of people, including anyone who subscribes to e-mail alerts to this forum.  That's very, very bad.  The credit card should be considered compromised at this point, and you should cancel it immediately, if you haven't done so already.

  • 17" MacBook Pro Core i5 Boot Camp Nvidia 64 bit driver install issue

    Can't get correct Nvidia driver to install on 17" MacBook Pro core i5. Windows 7 64 bit is installed and running but its using a standard VGA driver for the video card so the full resolution of the display is unatainable. I've loaded the snow leopard windows 64 bit drivers, downloaded the BootCamp 3.1 64bit drivers and installed but each time I try to run it the Nvidia part of the installer closes with the error, you are trying to use a 32bit uninstaller for a 64bit program, and it exits. I've double checked to make sure I have the 64bit driver installer instead of the windows 7 32bit installers but I still get the error every time. I then downloaded Nvidias own driver for windows 7 64bit Gt 330M and it gets the same error. Please help?

    A number of people in this and other forum threads have reported problems with the Nvidia drivers when installing Windows 7 (64bit) on the new Macbook Pro (April 2010).
    The problems appear to be due to an installation of Boot Camp 3.0, followed by the update to Boot Camp 3.1. As Boot Camp 3.0 does not include the Nvidia graphics drivers for the
    Macbook Pro 2010, the graphics card is not recognized and the subsequent update to Boot Camp 3.1 does not complete successfully.
    The proper approach consist of installing Boot Camp 3.1, which is included in the system disk that shipped with the laptop. A copy of that version was posted e.g. here
    http://files.me.com/jason_fearing/an51fn. One should not use on the Macbook Pro 2010 the Boot Camp version 3.0 that shipped with the original DVD of Mac OS X Snow Leopard.
    I had the same problems that were reported in the forum, when installing Boot Camp 3.0 + Boot Camp 3.1 update on Windows 7 (64bit). First I had to manually run the 64bit Boot Camp setup, as suggested by others, and then I had to install the Nvidia drivers with the modified INF files from http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/, as the graphics card was not recognized.
    However when I used the proper Boot Camp 3.1 that came with the laptop, everything went completely smoothly and the installation consisted of just clicking on the setup file.

  • 23" Apple Cinema Display & 15" MacBook Pro?

    1) Any ideas on how to crank up the res on a MacBook Pro for external mirroring?
    A manager at my company ordered a 15" MacBook Pro & a 23" Apple Cinema Display for the purpose of Mirroring.
    When spanning, the laptop and the display look great (and both run in their native modes of 1920 x 1200 and 1440 by 900, respectively), but when mirroring is enabled, the MacBook video card acts like it can't power the 23" LCD properly. It wants to default both the 15" built-in display and the Cinema display at 1440 by 900 - which is unacceptable.
    2) Is it possible to close a MacBook Pro's lid and continue to power the external monitor without the MacBook sleeping?
    3) Is it possible to toggle the MacBook Pro's video signal to turn OFF the built-in laptop display and ONLY run on the external display? I remember older PowerBooks being able to do this. Many PC laptops will allow you to disable the local video and only send a signal to the external display (for presentations etc).

    1) Any ideas on how to crank up the res on a MacBook Pro for external mirroring?
    Mirroring is pixel to pixel. The MacBook only has 1440 by 900, so that's all it can show on the external display when mirroring.
    2) Is it possible to close a MacBook Pro's lid and continue to power the external monitor without the MacBook sleeping?
    Attach the power adapter and an external keyboard and mouse (bluetooth is OK if it's set to wake the computer). When you close the lid, the computer will sleep, but will wake (and continue to run with the lid closed) when you use the external mouse or keyboard.
    3) Is it possible to toggle the MacBook Pro's video signal to turn OFF the built-in laptop display and ONLY run on the external display?
    Not with the lid open, but if not mirrored, you can move the menu bar to the external display by following the instructions in the "Arrangement" tab of "Displays" system preference.

  • Apple Cinema Displays & 2007 MacBooks

    hello. which apple cinema displays are compatible with older (2007) white macbooks, in terms of connectivity, adapters, etc...?

    Any Apple LCD will work except for the 24" LED or 30". You will need a Mini-DVI to DVI adapter.
    <http://store.apple.com/us/product/M9321G/B?fnode=MTY1NDA5OQ&mco=MjE0NTg3Nw>
    The 20" is the only one currently sold at the Apple online store, but some stores may still have some 23" models in stock. 15", 17", and 22" models may be available used. If they use ADC, you will also need a DVI to ADC adapter

    Can I purchase an applecare plan for a used Macbook Pro?

    Provided that the used mac is still under its original 1 year warranty yes. Once past that first year no.

  • 13" Macbook (black), Snow Leopard, Boot Camp, Windows 7 display issue

    OK I don't know where to post this. I couldn't find an appropriate forum under Boot Camp (nothing for display). Apologies if this is the wrong forum.
    I am attempting to run Windows 7 using Boot Camp. Here is the behavior:
    Booting Windows 7 without any monitor plugged in works fine.
    Booting with an external monitor plugged in, I get the display on the external monitor. Now when I unplug the external monitor, the LCD display backlight is off and is completely dim. I had to reboot it in order for the LCD display to work again.
    This is not a macbook display issue. But it has to do something with the way Windows 7, BootCamp are compatible with a macbook. Anyone seen this or know what the fix is?
    Thanks
    Sri

    I can not get my Win 7 (32) os to see my Mac 10.6 partition. Is there something I need to set or turn on to get this to work?
    As for your problem, perhaps Windows is not seeing the FireWire bus?

  • Apple Mini-DVI to VGA Adapter Problems in Boot Camp / Windows

    I currently run Windows XP SP2 on my MacBook and recently purchased the Mini-DVI to VGA adapter so I could hook up the MacBook to an external projector, monitor, or TV to display what's on my Windows screen on the external device. However, when I connect it to any external device, it just goes nuts and sporadically continues to make the hardware connect and hardware disconnect sounds and doesn't allow for external output of the screen. Any suggestions...? Thanks!
    Marc

    I think I solved this problem.
    It was in issue for me. My second monitor would only display the Windows XP screen when it was loading, then it would black out. I couldn't even move my mouse arrow to the other side. Then I fixed it, here's how (running Windows XP SP3):
    1. Start > Control Panel > Appearance and Themes
    2. Display
    3. Go to tab "settings"
    4. Double click the blue image with the "2" inside it. This is the second monitor, adjacent to your first, or primary, monitor. The blue box may be a desaturated, greyish blue, meaning that the monitor is disabled. Click it and it a box will pop up asking if you want to enable the monitor. Click OK, and then like magic, your monitor is resurected in it's Windows Glory! From there, adjust the resolution, and it should work perfectly.
    This isn't a Boot Camp compatability issue, it's just a problem with the lack of familiarity that users of OS X have with using XP.
    Have a nice day!

  • Macbook Backlit Keyboard - Working Boot Camp Fix!

    I just discovered a small tool which fixes the Boot Camp keyboard backlight drivers... It basically allows the user to turn off keyboard leds completely or turn off Boot Camp's poor auto-adjustment, without a need to kill bootcamp.exe
    http://www.powerplan7.com/features_macbook.htm
    You might ask, what's the question? OK, I'd like to know is it possible to somehow turn Macbook keyboard backlight off WITHOUT using this 3rd-party tool... Does anyone know is it a registry fix, driver command or something else?

    I'm not a hardcore software developer, but after some analysis I would say it's a complex thing. Looks like this application drives Apple System Management Controller directly, through the raw driver... So forget registry fixes

  • Macbook Pro won't boot AT ALL with USB HD plugged in

    This is a recent problem and I don't know if it's an issue with my external HD or the macbook. I have a Western Digital 500GB MyBook HD that I use for Time Machine. When I reboot my computer with the hard drive plugged in, it hangs endlessly when booting up before the apple even appears. The startup chime comes on, and the screen turns color, but it does not get farther than that with the hard drive plugged in.
    Additionally, if I unplug the HD, let the computer boot, and plug it back in when it's booted, the HD won't mount and I get the error in the console that a USB device has not responded for 5 seconds and is timing out. This repeats over and over again. To get the drive to mount again, I have to unplug the USB, unplug the power to the drive, and then plug the power back in, and then plug the USB back in.
    Doing this, the drive will work normally again until my next reboot. I have tried Disk Utility's verify disk and it has found no problems.
    Any suggestions?

    I've recently been having the same problems, maybe within the last week or so... My Macbook pro will chime, get to the blue screen and sit there... until I either unplug or plug in a usb cable. My external drive is a Hitachi Deskstar 500GB. I've repaired permissions and such... I have noticed that I can boot into Safe Mode with ease.. so, there is something happening here, I just don't know what.
    Any ideas would be wonderful, thanks in advance.
    update
    Also, question for Mikooster... did your problem start after installing Office 2008 ? I'm curious, that's the only recent thing I've installed that I can remember.

  • Can Windows 7 be installed using the latest version of boot camp on 3TB fusion iMac drive?

    I have tried unsuccessfully several times to install an .ISO version of 64-bit Windows 7 SP1 on my late 2012 iMac, equipped with a 3TB fusion drive. My proposed Windows partition, set up under boot camp assistant from the utility folder, is well under the 2.2TB size limit. I have carefully followed all the prescribed steps using the latest available software mounted on a FAT USB thumb drive.
    The install fails, however. early on when Windows fails to recognize the requested partition situated in the fourth slot. I get an error message that the partition can't be found. ("Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition.") I have picked the partition labled "BOOTCAMP."
    After booting back on the Apple side, the disk utility shows the partition as being there formatted as a FAT install.
    Apple has an update release with the 10.8.3 version of OS X that says this bug has been addressed and should now work.
    I would greatly appreciate some help.

  • Wireless issues with MacBook Pro i5 in Boot Camp Windows 7 x64

    I have a 2010 Macbook Pro i5 15''. I'm usually connecting to the 802.11n 5Ghz wireless network of my Time Capsule when running OS X, which works absolutely fine. When running Windows 7 x64 in Boot Camp though, this network can't be found and I have to connect to my secondary 802.11g network of an AirPort Express. Even this network connection usually dies after a few minutes of intensive use though (copying files, playing online games; it's fine with low activity like web surfing). It still appears connected normally, but no data is being transmitted. I have to reset the wireless adapter to get it to work again. The same network works fine for any OS X device.
    The Windows drivers for the Broadcom chip in this machine seem really flaky. Anybody else have these problems or maybe a solution?

    Yes, sorry, the Boot Camp area would have been a better place to ask. After some more googling I found a helpful thread though, which led me to download this driver package:
    http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?swItem= ob-80585-1&lang=en&cc=us&idx=3&mode=4&
    From it I installed the driver called "Broadcom 43225 802.11b/g/n", and presto, I can finally use my 802.11n network under Windows. Hope that's helping other people that may have this problem.

  • Apple Store Refuses to Diagnose Hardware Issue after Boot Camp Installed

    I previously reported an issue in the Boot Camp Beta forum, but figured I share this with other MBP users as well. After loading the updated firmware, running boot camp to partion my drive, I installed Windows XP Professional. During the install, the screen would go dark, and come back at irregular intervals, as if there was a video sync problem of something. I managed to get XP installed, and booted it and loaded the updated drives from the Boot Camp driver CD which I had earlier created. Subsequent attempt to use the XP installation result in a constantly blank screen, with only occational glitches, as if there is some activity coming out of the GPU, but it's not working correctly.
    This is what led me to take my machine to my local (15 miles away) Apple Retail Store (Washington Sqaure, Tigard, Oregon), and attempt to show the problem to a "genius". HOWEVER... As soon as I mentioned "Boot Camp" and XP, they went into the whole "public beta, blah, blah, blah", "not supported", etc. I tried to explain that I was not reporting a SOFTWARE issue with Boot Camp, but rather a HARDWARE ISSUE which is exposed on my machine only after using BOOT CAMP to partition the hard drive, and then installing Windows XP. All I get was "Well, it works fine in OSX, and Boot Camp is Public Beta, so there's nothing we're going to do". Obviously, I'm livid. And, will pursuing any and all avenues to bring this problem to Apple Management attention. First it was Mark Pienpakdee the "genius" who tried to help me, and then I was further rebuked by Mark Macsurak, Assistant Manager. So, I'm left with broken hardware which won't work correctly running Windows, and no recourse until Boot Camp isn't "Public Beta". What a load of crap. I was so mad, I didn't even bother buying the extra AC adapter I was planning on picking up. ARGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I was absolutly shocked that the "genius" didn't react with anything like "wow, what an interesting problem, let's see if we can diagnose it". He didn't even want to see me boot XP to show the problem, only wanted to see that OSX was working normally and send me on my way.
    If you have had similar problem at the Washington Square store in Oregon, be sure to let them know by sending e-mail to [email protected], I know I will...
    Eric

    If you are going to send an e-mail you should send it to [email protected] However, nobody from Apple is going to send you a response. The Software is Beta which means it is not ready for Prime Time (Also that means that the drivers are beta too). Plus they say before you decide to install any of this in their write ups that they do not and will not provide any support for BootCamp and/or Windows. So they are right not to do anything if the computer works like it is supposed to under OS 10.4.6. Now they might take a look at somethings when OS 10.5 comes out if it has BootCamp in it. They may have something similiar in it, or it might be a perfected BootCamp. However, I doubt that they will ever provide any support for Windows. There has been some talk that Microsoft is looking into supporting Windows on the MAC. However, as far as I have heard no decision on that has come out as of yet.

  • Getting Windows 8.1 on Macbook Air 2013 via Boot Camp

    I purchased and downloaded Windows 8.1 Pro Student onto a PC to get the ISO image and did not install it. I saved it to a flash drive and trasfered it to a folder in my Macbook. Now i'm trying to use bootcamp with a 8 gig flash dive to install it on my 2013 mac air but its taking forever and isn't giving me a time. Did i miss something?

    Windows 8.1 is not yet supported by Boot Camp.

    something similar has been happening to me for a a couple weeks (even before the most recent update, but now is definitely worse) on my 2010 MacBook Air. Firefox freezes upon startup, and then freezes maybe every twenty minutes or so when I'm actively using it, staying frozen for at least a minute or two. it drives me crazy.
