If you have the receipt and all the packaging intact you can return it for an exchange within the first 14 days from date of purchase. You have until Mar. 22 to return it. You will have to pay and price and tax differential.

i have a mac os x ver. 10.5.8 2x2.8 quad. my start up disk is almost full. can i change my start up disk from the original hard drive to an additional hard drive i added in Bay 4?
Always want to keep the boot drive with more free space than may seem necessary for performance and to function at its best, 30-40% free or even 50% is not excessive.
Ideal is to separate your system from your data.
You should always have bootable backup / clone of your system
Don't use a green drive for system or data though.
When you are done cloning system and/or data, remove the old original and keep as backup.
Then move the system drive to #1 - no matter what you want to reset the default boot volume to where the system is.

Can't change ACR cache location or size
Whenever I go to change the location of the cache, or even its size, the value immediately resets back the next time I open the preferences panel. Same happens if I try to do this in ACR 6.1. The location that I want to point it at is perfectly valid, on my local drive, and I have all permissions for it.
Since Adobe apps are slightly retarded and don't follow symlinks, an attempt to sneak in a different location under a symlink ended up as expected in a crash.
Any ideas how to change the ACR cache path, or why it would be failing? No messages in the Console. OSX 10.6.4, Nehalem MacPro.No, links don't really work with any Adobe apps, at least not on OSX. Just try to create a symlink to any of the Camera Raw settings folders (lens profiles, camera profiles - so that they are all the same on all my computers) - no dice. I write OSX software for a living and know my way with symlinks - not sure what Adobe is doing but they don't work.
But that's not the issue here - my question is why I can't change the cache directory the "normal, pedestrian way" (your average user won't know anything about symlinks). -
TS4036 Can you change the iCloud backup date to a previous backup date?
Can you change the iCloud backup date? My iPhones processor went out and erased all of my information and saved that as my last iCloud backup, is there a way to restore my phone for the day before this happened to get all of my information back?
Long story short, I had to make a clean install of OS X (mountain lion) when I was outside my country, and if I can't show the guy at the customs back home that I purchased the macpro before making the trip, I'll have to pay taxes for it.
I could have filled the papers for that but I almost miss the plane and there was a long queue. -
Used macbook pro late 2011 model, under the 'Apple' when i clik 'update software' it goes to apple site with greyedout previous user's email address asking for their password, not my newly registered macpro and appleid. How can I change this as previous user has now unregistered laptop? upgraded to maverick os.
What you are entitled to is the MBP and the original OS that the MBP came with which is Lion and the associated applications.
In order to install Lion, you will have to boot your MBP with the OPTION COMMAND R keys held down. That will connect you to the Apple servers and they will check your MBP. A 4 option menu will appear. Select the Lion installation option and install Lion.
Now your MBP will be registered in your name and you may open your own Apple account. If you want Mt. Lion, then you will have to purchase it from the Apple online store.

I have a problem sending mail via smtp. I use a satellite system and the average return time for a ping is 675ms. Is this a problem with mail? If so can I change Mail to accept it. The problem also exists with Lion and on both my MacPro and my wife's Imac. I also see my mailboxes randomly disconnecting and reconnecting. Any other ideas of a possible cause?
I solved it myself, after the "note" which came back from FF/Mozilla just as I finished my message, commenting on what it was that my system had , I wnnt back to check my plug-ins etc. I downloaded the latest Java, BOTH 32bit AND 64 bit versions and latest Firefox.
Now all is working.
Thanks,

If I chose the wrong folder as defaulf for downloads to go to, how can I change it?
I use download manager. I hit '''yes''' when asked if I wanted to make the folder shown as the default for future downloads of that type. I did not mean to do that. How can I change the default folder?
Hi belladonna82,
You should take a look at the [[Downloads window]] and [[Options window - General panel]] Knowledge Base articles. They will give you all the details you need. Unless you are talking about the default action and not the actual download folder? If so, you should look at [[Options window - Applications panel]].
Hopefully this helps! -
I DO remember them but Apple chose to put them in Japanese and I can not change the language on Manage my Apple ID so I do not know if I made an error ,it threw me off , it was the wrong question Where did you fly to on your first Aiplane trip ? then I was unable to enter until 8 hours then called Apple Japan 4 times each time threy asked me would you like to speak with an English speaker,I said yes then they told me sorry today is Sunday no English speakers ,but they refused to speak Japanese, then I called 5th time and a kind guy could speak English we were on 1and 1/2 hours he got me to log in but the reset key chain could not be completed still pending.
He said do not mess with that ! then I got a text from somewhere to reset 4 pins suddenly it was very strange I said to him that I got this pin this morning but it said you can use maximum 3 hours it had a UK number and I told him I do not like this and will not enter the code he said do not do it if it is from the UK and then I said to him ok you did a lot to help but we can not go any further ! and we cut of I went back to my computer to re do the ID but I found everything a mess so I call and a stupid sounding Japanese women with a squeaky voice came on I was calm at first and they want your phone number your IMEI number your iPhone serial number date of birth Address email address it takes 10 munutes to check then they ask what are you caling about so I try to explain my keychain is broken or problems with language security questions and can not change my pasword because the security question have failed me so it is ONE BIG HEADACHE AND I START I GET STRESSED she says Do want an ENGLISH speaker ,I say yes ,that guy i talked to earlier but I never got his name and first time I ever talked to him but they said he is not here so I said ok and then she said today is sunday so call back in the morning ,I said ,well ok in Japanese but they make you feel stupid because they do not want to speak Jap@anese with none natives and they are to busy,And they feel that I should not bother them ,then I say that Apple Japan is trying to refuse Apple foreign customers and then she wants to hang up and ask me to visit the shop ,but they are the same I have a very bad time with Apple Japan since they do not discuss software problems or security with customer meaning if you have a problem they ask you to come on a time 20 minutes max so they do hardware test and say you phone is fine then I say no I can not reset my ID they say you must call call centre so I am going around in circles ,When I call English it is usually Australia so if my problem is in Japan surely if do not want me to talk to them in Japanese and they ask me to call Australia but every time my call charge is expensive after asking them is this free because I have Apple care they say yes but when the call goes to Australia 0120 277 535 it might change to paid call so I call then I have to ask is this charging they say we can not give you that information ! so what can I do I have have been at the computer and phone all day on my day off work and in tre week I am so busy and can not use my phone I can not work without it ,this new technology for you ,they can not cope with the fact that the customer have problems yet they do not want to deal with us because they can not solve it and so it shows them to be useless they like to walk around in their cool tee shirts and retro shop but when it comes to functionality we are unwelcome they got the money so do not return because apple is perfect that nothing should go wrong .
But it does somehow my English security answers do not work on a Japanese Question especialy if I did not choose that question I set up the multiple choice In English and wrote the answers in English or Roman and set them langauge preferences in English, do you really think you can correctly write english name or word in Japanese they write a police patrol car pato caa パトカア they do not have r and l .So it is my choice to make my security easy for me and as difficult for others to hack.But they also have patororoo choo meaning ' now patrolling ' so why they have pato caa patrol car and patoro patrol and have thousands of Chinese words kanji they can find patrol.

How can I change the display of Inbox in my iPad's mail app- so that it takes up the full screen?
How can I change the display of Inbox in my iPad's mail app- so that it takes up the whole screen, as opposed to just about one third; the other two thirds display the full text of the selected email?
You can't change the display in the Mail app, if you are holding the iPad in landscape orientation then the left-hand third will be for navigation, and the right-hand two-thirds will be an email. If you hold the iPad in portrait orientation then the navigation section becomes a drop-down section.

My family has the same Apple ID, which is a problem when we don't have the same data on our products. Can we have separate Apple IDs for each person? If so, how can we change it and not lose what we currently have stored on our Ipod Touch/Ipod/Iphone? I just restored my son'e Itouch and it has Cloud. Will he delete my husband's contacts (from his Iphone) if my son deletes contacts on the Ipod Touch?

How can I change the default "from" email account on my iPad/iPhone in IOS 8.2?
I currently use my phone & pad for business and personal use. My emails should come from my business account but they're coming from my Yahoo account. How can I change it without having to manually change each email? I've checked online but I don't see settings/mail,contacts,calendars/default account in this new revision of software.
Thanks!Hi bschmidt0726,
Go to "Setting"; scroll down to the 4th box for "iCloud"; You need to turn on you "Mail" option in the "iCloud" settings.
Then,
Go into "Settings", scroll down to "Mail, Contacts, Calendars"; on the left panel, scroll down to the 4th box; there you'll find the "Default Account" settings. -
How can I change the age associated with my daughter's account?
OK I am sure that this is a common issue. Back when my daughter was about 9 or 10 years old, we bought her an iPod Touch. She was too young to have an AppleID of her own, so I set one up for her using an extra gmail accoun that I had, and entered my birthdate/age. A few years later, she received an iPad, and most recently, an iPhone. All of these devices are tied to the same AppleID.
Well, now she will be 13 years old soon, and I would like to switch things to represent reality. She has her own email account, and I believe you can go to My Apple Id to change the Apple ID name and e-mail address. My question is, can we change the age associated with the account?
I hear you saying, "Just create a new AppleID for her." That may end up being the only solution, but I am trying to avoid having two AppleIDs for her to keep up with. She has already purchased a fair amount of content (music and apps) under the existing AppleID, and I am pretty sure from looking at the posts on this Community that you can not transfer content away from the AppleID under which it was downloaded/purchased. And so, if I create a new AppleID, she will have to re-purchase the content to get it all in one place. As she eventually grows up and becomes independent, I would like for he to not have to "start over" with her AppleID.
Any advice or direction to information would be appreciated.I have a similar situation however a bit more complicated! It seems that when I was setting the birthdate I forgot to change the year so now my seven years old daughter shows up as a two months old! There is no way to change the birthdate because it shows up in light grey when I login into my daughters account and doesn't allow a change! The birthdate can be changed only when the child turns 13 however according to this she will have to be 20 before she can change it to show property 13 and here is where this is getting completely out of hand! Now to make things more complicated I have twin daughters and they came up with their unique but similar Apple ID, so changing one will require to change both Apple IDs! After being on the phone with Apple's customer support for about one hour I talked to a supervisor and the supervisor of the supervisor and their only solution is to create a new Apple ID! Of course in my case I will have to create two new Apple IDs, and I'm considering doing it. However when I started reading it becomes more complicated because I already made their Apple IDs part of my family group. It seems like you're not able to just let go of family member that is less than 13 years of age. You can only transfer it to another family, so Apple is making sure there are no kids left behind It seems like the only option will be to "abandon" the family and then create a new family with the new Apple IDs. If all this sounds bizarre to you it sounds bizarre to me too! If I can just put the kids in the car and drive them to the nearest one hour away Apple Store and have them show their credentials confirming their birthdate I would rather do that than having to spend more and more time with this issue, but that was not an option pointed out by customer support. So folks keep in mind that if you make a mistake your children's age is set in stone until he or she turns 20 if they happen to be seven at the time you made the mistake and no one can change this, even Apple! Now on the positive side I'm glad I didn't do the mistake when she was 13 or she will have to wait until she's 26 Most likely I'll be calling customer support tomorrow again and I will let you know how it went!

How can I change an english/american keyboard to a danish one?
How can I change an english/american keyboard to a danish one on a Macbook Air?
Apple menu / System Preferences / Keyboard / Input sources.
Click + (bottom left) and in the pane that comes up, select Danish on the left, and click Add.
Of course that can only change what the keys actually input, not what is written on the keys. If you wish to change the physical look of the keys as well, get in touch with Apple and ask if they can replace the keyboard.
