Can I use a US MacBook Pro with a UK power adapter?

Can I use a new US MacBook Pro with a UK power adapter? I am pretty sure I can as the output of the adapter says 100-240v, but would welcome any input other than my assumption! Many thanks.

Welcome to Apple Discussions
Yes the MagSafe can be used with any 100-240 volt supply, you'll get best results if you use a cable/adapter that has an earth or you might feel a tingle in your palms when using it ...

Macbook pro with retina display power adapter popped / exploded!

I was just charging my macbook pro with retina display when a loud "pop" noise came from the power adapter and the red light on the magsafe2 connector went out. I unplugged it all immediately, but there was a burnt kind of smell and bit of black 'sooty' type material around one of the edges of the adapter!
Thankfully the rMBP appears fine.
I actually just got a replacement rMBP as the other one had a small scratch on the body. So both the charger and the rMBP that was atached at the time of the pop, will be returned in a few days anyway. Still I am a little alarmed by it all. The charger was plugged into a 6-way extension adapter with surge protection, so I don't think it was a power surge. And anyway my tv (also plugged into the socket adapter) was on at the time and there was no problem there. Can I assume it was just a fault in the adapter? I will tell them about it of course when I call up tomorrow to arrange the return. I just hope the same isn't going to happen with the new rMBP and charger!
Has anyone else suffered a similar "pop" and broken adapter?

Apple's warranty IS international. You have a one-year warranty when you buy the machine and you can extend that - and your phone support - to three years by purchasing the AppleCare Protection Plan, which is international as well.
Good luck with your new computer!

My eyes just glazed over...Please in the future break down each of your issues with paragraphs separated by two carriage returns. It would be much easier when trying to address your issues.
Go to Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Mouse
And edit your mouse settings to do what you want it to do.
Secondly, this is not the place to vent. If you have a complaint, there is:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
or http://www.apple.com/contact/
We are just end users here helping other end users.
Third, from my understanding, it would appear you are concerned about the noise the hard drive makes when it falls asleep? Why not put your machine in screen saver mode instead? Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Energy Saver turn off all Energy Saver settings, or set them to run Never.
Fourth, if your machine was purchased just a few days ago, you may still be able to get an exchange from the store, quicker than you can get a repair done. You may want to look into that possibility.
Fifth, it does appear you found the Logic forum. I would persist in asking there how to solve your technical issue with Logic regarding the audio. It may be you don't have to do anything special to the hard drive. Remember audio can be transmitted by wire, avoiding ambient sounds.
Good luck!

Can I use my old Macbook Pro as an external disc drive while installing Windows 7 through boot camp?

I want to install the Windows 7 CD on the newest version of the 2013 Macbook pro 10.9.2 running OSX Mavericks, through Boot Camp. It does not have a disc port, nor do I have an external disc drive....but I do have an older macbook that does have a disc drive and I know you can supplement it for an external disc drive.
My question is can I use my old Macbook pro's as an external disc drive for the installation of Windows 7 in Boot camp? Will this be a problem? Or do I have to buy an external disc drive separately.

Barry, the other stolen computer, my IMac does not show me a locked on such and such date, but simply says offline. I set that computer to erase when it goes online and notify me when it is found, and to play a tone and play a message that the police are on their way!

MacBooks Pro with Retina display don't come with Ethernet port. You need a Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD463ZM/A/thunderbolt-to-gigabit-ethernet-adap tor

I recently purchased a MacBook Pro with Retina. Which adapter do I purchase to connect it to a Samsung TV for the best quality?

I recently purchased a MacBook Pro with Retina. Which adapter do I purchase to connect it to a Samsung TV for the best quality? Thanks.

Doesn't matter. All HDMI cables should work, some are considered better than others, I had a $5 ebay cable work just as good as a $20 monster HDMI cable.

How Can i connect using Thunderbolt a Macbook Pro with the New iMac

I bought the new Macbook Pro with Thunderbolt and instead of buying a new external monitor, i am thinking that the new iMac with Thunderbolt is a great idea.
Is there a cable to connect the Macbook Pro and use as iMac as external monitor, using Thunderbolt.
thanks

I understood your question perfectly and the answer is absolutely yes. When you change the iMac into target display mode you underlying operating system continues to run all existing applications. For example in my case if I finished editing some video and am about to enter a lengthy render process or something which may draw lots of resources like hand real, I set it to start on the iMac and then switch it to target display mode to use it as a monitor with my MacBook air in the meantime.
Only one small caveat in your case though. Since the target display mode is a feature of OSX (eg the OS interprets the special key stroke and changes the iMac into target display mode) you should make sure Lion server supports the target display mode feature. I don't see a reason why it wouldn't but that's the only thing currently crossing my mind. Keep in mind the compatibilities between ports as noted in my blog. If any of your machines have mini display port and you intend to connect the new iMac in target display mode you will run into issues. In that special scenario, I recommend buying a refurb iMac from 2010 which urtilize the displayport allowing you to use it as a display for all your macs -- those with thunderbolt as well as those with displayport. If you have thunderbolts then definitely go with the thunderbolt iMac.

Can I use a new macbook pro as an exclusively windows machine?

I use a Dell XPS M1710 right now for hard core numerical analysis. Finite-element solving and the like. I have had this machine for 4 years and it is showing its age finally. So I am in the market for a new power laptop. I think the 17 inch Macbook Pro with i7 and 8 GB could be what I need. It has an advantage over the newer Dell XPS in that the screen on the new Dell is only 1080 for some reason.
Now, on to my question. I have not used apple in 12 years so my memory is a little fuzzy. I know that there is a command key instead of a ctrl key, but does the command key work like a ctrl key when running windows on a mac? Also, can I completely take off the apple OS and run only windows on the Macbook pro, or will it not work without the apple OS? Is there still no right click on the apple machine's mouse/pad?
Forgive my ignorance, but I want to know these things before I jump in.
Thanks for answering any or all of my questions.

Short answer is yes.
You can easily erase the drive and install windows on the mac, using a windows install disc.
Still has control key, has option instead of alt, and command instead of windows (they are control alt and windows in windows).
And yes, the mbp has right click on the trackpad (clicking on the bottom right hand corner)

Can you still buy a macbook pro with snow leopard?

can you still purchase a new macbook with snow leopard?

No. However, some used and refurbished Mac shops still have MacBook Pros with a warranty sold with them*:

And yes, they are Snow Leopard compatible. July 20, 2011 is the cutoff date. So be sure the model predates that vintage.

Any ideas on how I get round this with out formting the whole hdd and backing up all of my windows and mac software.

I am willing to try this, but I was kinda trying to find a solution that doesn't need me to unscrew stuff ..etc

I can't sync my new MacBook Pro with iPhone

I got a new MacBook Pro with Lion OS and cannot make it sync to my iPhone G3

Can you be a little more specific? Do you mean you have set the sync options on the Device pages, Clicked Sync and it does not work, or you can't find the sync pages.
