Buy new MacBook in Paris (with English keyboard layout)

I want to buy new Macbook in Paris with US keyboard layout not French one. Since there are no official Mac Store in France how can I do that ?
Oh one more thing. I also want to laser Russian alphabet on buttons in Paris. Is it possible to do that ?

http://store.apple.com/fr - this is a reseller.
No, it's not, not if you mean an independently-owned company apart from Apple. It's the official Apple Store, owned by Apple. When you order from that Apple Store, you're ordering directly from Apple.
why don't they writу full number with France code - as far as I know it is 33. so it is 33 0800 046 046
Probably because they assume that anyone ordering from the French Apple Store is in France and so doesn't need the country code. Why you can't get through to that number from another country, as I presume you're attempting, I can't say.
Well the information I have from Russian reseller is that they order them from US or UK they do not laser buttons in Russia.
Again, what Apple can and will do for a distributor/dealer is different from what they can do for an individual purchaser. Apple computers sold in a given country are usually only sold with a keyboard applicable to that country. Getting a different keyboard is often just not possible as may well be the case for you.
A workaround might be to get a MacBook with a keyboard from another language and get a set of Russian keyboard overlay stickers. Another possibility would be to purchase an external USB keyboard with Russian keys. Neither option would be an elegant solution but it might be worth it if you can save as much as you say by buying in France. Again, though, note that Apple France will not ship a system to you in Russia (or any other country); you'd have to go to France to get it.

How can I type "š" with english keyboard layout?

I was wondering if somewho can tell me, how I can type "š" with englis keyboard layout, because when I have restart iMac, layout was changed back to english (from Slovak) and now I cant start Mac OS X, cause in my login is "š"

Start with the Apple menu in the upper left of the Menu Bar and select System Preferences. On the System Preferences pane on the top row is the UN flag icon. For Tiger (OS-X 10.4) it was called "International". Click to take you to the Language Options:
The sub-menu called "Input Sources" (as you can see from the above screen shot) will take you to the panel that I referred to in the previous response. If you don't find your language listed then click on the "Edit List at the bottom left of the "Language" sub-menu. Once you make a change in either one of these places you will be given a notice to tell you that the change will be reflected the next time you restart your Mac or the next time that you log in to your account. If you are the only user and do not have another account on your Mac then the restart option will be your method. There is no need to do this procedure from the install DVD.

Repair or buy new macbook?

I spilled a cup of tea on my 2009 aluminum macbook. They say it'll cost 775 to repair it. I could buy 1,000 for a new one. I'm leaning toward repair since I like my computer but is there a reason to buy a new one? Has it improved much since 2009?

Hi Judy,
Sorry to hear about your coffee spill. One thing to consider if you go the route of a new machine is that you'd get a one year limited warranty with the option to buy the AppleCare Protection Plan for the machine. If you go the $775 route you'd only get a 90-day limited warranty and you're out of AppleCare Protection range unless the machine already has it.
Let's talk differences:
If you have the 2.4GHz model, there's no improvement with the newer MacBook. It uses the same CPU, Cache and System Bus speed.
It does not have an illuminated keyboard, again if you have the 2.4GHz model
The new MacBook would come with Snow Leopard and iLife '11, your machine came with Leopard and most likely iLife '08.
Both can run up to 8GB of RAM (Apple only officially supports up to 4GB)
The new MacBook has a newer GPU (320M vs 9400M) and while the newer one does benchmark higher (and thus on paper is better) unless you're gaming or rendering a lot of 3D images you won't see a difference.
The new MacBook does not have an IR port if you wanted to use the remote
The new MacBook has a much stronger battery (63.5 watt hour vs. 45 watt hour). As such Apple is saying you should be able to get double the run time off a full charge with the newer MacBook than your currently battery. But obviously, your mileage will vary.
So much improved? Not really. But it's important to consider what I mentioned earlier about the warranty/AppleCare Protection situation.

Have old MacBook Pro running tiger 10.4 want to save date to external hard drive and buy newer MacBook and still use same drive. Any suggestions, most WD drives say nothing about os tiger 10.4.

Have old MacBook Pro running tiger 10.4 want to save date to external hard drive and buy newer MacBook and still use same drive. Any suggestions, most WD drives say nothing about os tiger 10.4. The OS compatibility is much newer on the data. Totally confused. Not a computer person.

I haven't checked reviews recently but there's a difference between bare drives and drives with enclosures. Western Digital made some of the most reliable drives last time I checked, though the enclosures weren't all that great. It is convenient to get both in one package but I usually buy a highly rated enclosure and then put a highly rated drive in it myself. OWC sells some good enclosures but if they put a so-so drive inside of it then the package is only as good as its weakest component. If you get a package from them, ask them what drive is inside (some vendors have no idea what's inside - went to an Apple Store recently and they couldn't tell me what was inside some of their Apple brand enclosures). My first thought if buying a new drive would be to buy a OWC enclosure with a WD drive, but chek around because I may be out of date.
10 years ago Seagate was one of the best drives. Now they rate poorly in reviews.

I have a brand new macbook pro 15" with latest Lion.Can anyone tell me why, when I open word or preview etc that multiple files open?For eg if I open a word doc, the last 1-3 docs that I have worked on all open. why?

I have a brand new macbook pro 15" with latest Lion. Can anyone tell me why, when I open word or preview etc that multiple files open?For eg if I open a word doc, the last 1-3 docs that I have worked previously on all open. Can anyone tell me why?

You have a choice as to whether or not applications in Lion like Word or Preview (or even Safari) save and re-open previous documents or windows... just hold down the option key while quitting a program and when you re-open it you won't get the previous documents or windows when you re-open the application. You can see this by selecting the open program in the menu bar and when holding down the option key the quit function will change to quit and discard open windows. This feature in Lion is referred to as "Resume" and is great if you want to restart an app and return to what you're doing (for example in Safari re-opening existing windows and tabs from your previous session). You still have the option to close individual windows within an app before quitting and they will not re-open when the app is launched again.
This Resume function is not related to saving your work (a word or text document for example). This is handled by Lion's "Auto-Save" and "Versions" functions. See http://www.apple.com/ca/macosx/whats-new/auto-save.html
Hopefully this is the complete answer you're looking for.

What problems specifically? If you have a problem you should start your own thread and explain the problem in detail.
External USB devices including hard drives and DVD work fine on the new Macbook Pros.

About the only thing you can try is using the Online Internet Recovery system to reinstall Lion on your Mac over the top of the current install. that will reset all system files and should not touch your personal files or the apps you have installed.
Or iof you have a recent Time Machine backup use that to restore your Mac to that point in time.

I received an email containing a spreadsheet created using Mac Office 2004 on my new MacBook Air equipped with Mac Office 2011. When I saved the document, my Finder lists the document without the .xls file extension. Why?

All other .xls documents created by Mac Office 2004 retained the .xls file extention when I migrated them over to the new MacBook Air.

I know what happened. When I saved the document I somehow hit the Hide File Extension box. Sorry to trouble this group. I simply resaved it w/o activating the Hide File Extension feature.

Sorry that's untrue. I have Photoshop CS3 running on 10.9.
CS9 or 10? Now you are just making stuff up.
Adobe claim CS3 will work, with a minor issue…
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/mac-os-mavericks-compatability.html
The Adobe updater fails to work for me.
I was prompted to install J6RE which came from Apple, check the Apple support downloads http://support.apple.com/downloads/#java%206
Sorry can't provide a direct link, it was just a dumb 'You need … please click install' dialog.
I think the 10.9 java updater is installing version 7.

Does all new macbook air come with OS X Mountain Lion?

does all new macbook air come with OS X Mountain Lion? if so, where can i find it? cause if i'm right, i remember saw a mountain lion logo on someones desktop. also, if i have it on my mac, why do I find it in the apple store saying that I need to purchase it for $19.99?

All new MacBooks Air come with OS X Mountain Lion, as it's the only supported version in Mid 2013 MacBooks Air. Mid 2012 MacBooks Air come with Lion or Mountain Lion, depending on when they were manufactured.

The Mid 2013 MacBook Air uses a special OS X Mountain Lion version which is different than the version available at the Mac App Store. That's the reason why you see the price at the Mac App Store, but you already have Mountain Lion. If you try to purchase Mountain Lion, the App Store will tell you that it's not compatible with your MacBook Air. To reinstall Mac OS X, you have to use OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
