Código PIN Macbook

I turned on my Macbook Pro earlier today and fell on this screen asking for the PIN code, however, do not know what that is. The computer is new, zero. What can have happened? Can not get this screen.

Pb de code pin macbook air

J'ai mis à jour mon systême vers maverick et depuis il m'est demandé un code pin.
Oh surprise il faut un code pin, je croyais que c'était réservé au téléphones même réflection autour de moi.
Mon macbook est inutilisable.
on me propose de changer la carte mère!!!
n'y a-t-il pas un moyen moins radical de passer outre?
Cordialement

Take the Macbook Air to an Apple Store to have the problem evaluated and corrected. Be prepared to prove ownership of the device.

Self Assigned IP address – can't figure this out. Frustrated.

This is a long post but bear with me. It proposes a challenge for the mac connoisseur. Who knows? Might be fun?
OK, here goes:
Please help. I have been trying to fix this for about 7 months. I first noticed this issue when I started traveling around the country, from hotel to hotel. While others (PC's and Mac's) had no trouble connecting to the free wifi at these hotels, I did. I kept getting "self-assigned i.p."
This was extremely frustrating. I often had to call up the i.t. guys and ask them to help me manually put in ip address, subnet mask, router (gateway), and dns. This worked much of the time but not always.
Let me also say that, sometimes it worked perfectly! I'd say about 25% of the time (at these hotels) my internet worked perfectly – just connected immediately. The other 75... "self-assigned i.p."
I just spoke to the mac "geniuses" and they told me it's not an issue with my computer at all (either hardware or software). Are you kidding me?!?! How can they explain everyone else's internet working except mine. And I'm talking like 100 or more different hotels in a 4 month period. They were trying to tell me that it was just a coincidence every time! "You'd be surprised" one guy said. Hahaha. They said that the routers aren't accepting my computer's whatever. OK, well WHY?! The router works for everyone but me. It's something wrong with my computer right?! Well no one acknowledged this.
More background info:Just had my airport card and logic board replaced. Computer came back and the sheet said "passed all hardware tests." BUT, none of my issues (I had other ones too involving battery life and not being able to access certain websites) were fixed.
I went to an apple store. They told me to do an erase and reinstall or whatever. So I did that (by dragging and dropping everything I'd saved on an external hard drive using disk utility). By the way, I also upgraded from leopard to snow leopard. So now, if I have the same issues after this I'll know both leopard and snow leopard are screwed up.... right?
OK, so I followed their instructions on deleting and reinstalling to a tee and guess what?! Everything worked! Or so it seemed. Battery fine. Websites now accessible. I figured the airport issue was fixed too. But now that I'm not touring anymore and the airport works in my house, I never encountered any issues. Until now. At my work.
I got a new job and it's one in which I HAVE to have a computer that connects to the internet. So of course, the same issue with self assigned i.p. presents itself. Everyone else in the office has no problem. Including a Mac person that used to work there.
I've been reading some other threads that are just completely confusing me. One of them might be the solution but I thought I'd detail my troubles so that some smart computer person out there can diagnose my specific problem and give me a specific fix.
I noticed that many people believe there was a bug in one of the 10.5 updates. I am pretty quick to install updates (maybe I shouldn't be because I hear that the first updates are often buggy and maybe you should wait for a while). But this problem has continued now with Snow Leopard too so... I don't know. I don't know anything anymore. I have tried everything. And Apple is telling me it's not a problem with my computer. Give me a break.
One more interesting quirk: before doing the erase and reinstall my computer could not find the Apple Store's network. After the erase and reinstall it works. That's why I assumed everything was fine! But no. And now the Mac people are saying there's no problem because they can't see it.
BTW, I have tried all the obvious things. It's not an obvious thing. But I mean, if you think it is... then tell me I guess. But I've been in the advanced tab thousands of times. I feel like I've exhausted everything in there.
Thank you thank you thank you in advance if someone is actually able to solve my issue.

I am getting electric current type shocks whilst using my track pad on my macbook pro. This happens when it is both plugged in to charge and also unplugged. I am left with a constant type pain of prickly pins and needles even when I am not using it.

I have recently bought a Macbook pro and have noticed that I am getting an electric current running up my fingers when using the track pad. This happens when it is charging but most worryingly it happens when it is not plugged in. It leaves me with pins and needles type feeling in my hand and arm even when I am not using it. Also when I sit it on my lap I get the same electrical current in my legs and down to my feet.
Surely this cannot be what I should expect with an apple product?, has anyone else experienced this?.
Yesterday I couldn't bare to use it the current was so strong. I went out for the rest of the day and suffered with pins and prickly needles all day.

Two possible courses of action suggest themselves:
(1) Return your computer immediately to point of purchase and/or authorized service provider.
or
(2) Consult with your doctor about your neurological symptoms.

My new MacBook Pro and Imac can't recognize my digital video camera (Canon GL2) via FireWire 800 9 pin to 4 pin cable.

My new MacBook Pro and Imac can't recognize my digital video cameras (Canon GL2 or Sony) via FireWire 800 9 pin to 4 pin cable. I've tried two different cables. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Is your DV camera plugged in to AC power (not batteries only)? When you step down from 9 pins to 4 pins, you lose the "power" pins.

How can I display a slideshow from my Macbook pro on a projector using a nine pin connection?

I have prepared a slideshow that I would like to show to a group of people using a projector and screen. I know the projector uses a nine pin connection but I don't have anything like that on my MAC. Is there a connecting wire that I could purchase that would use the USB port, or any other and then fit the nine pin?
My Macbook Pro was purchased in the summer of 2012.
Thank you.

Dianita,
Normally you would need a mini dvi to VGA adapter. VGA is 15 pin connection, serial is 9 pin, are you certain about the pin count?
Check the projector pin count, as this would rather unusual. If you discover that you need a 15 pin, you can use the above mentioned adapter plugged into a standard VGA cable. Available at Apple store, or do a search online.

My new iPad asks for the PIN of my MacBook to sync. How do I find the PIN?

how can I sync all my devices? Older MacBook, iPhone5 (these two sych via wi-fi) I want my new iPad to do the same but it asks for my MacBook PIN number. No idea what that is. I have it syncing with iTunes now but only pics/music. I want some of my files on the iPad as well. I'm a writer...want to use iPad then sync it to MacBook....thanks for any help. (I'm not too tech savvy)

I don't believe it's asking for your "MacBook PIN number."
It would be very helpful if you would post exactly what you are doing when you get asked for information, and the exact wording of the "PIN" request.

After a year of owning my macbook pro late 2012 retina model, it started having difficulty charging, it wouldn't charge even when green on the magsafe, and had difficulty turning orange, basically right after the 1 year warranty was over by one month, I went into the apple store and they told me that I simply needed to replace the power adapter and cord and it would be fine, but that it most likely was caused by me plugging it into a power strip, and that I had to plug it directly into the wall in its own power slot, which they never said that was what you were supposed to do when I purchased the laptop and could not find it anywhere in the literature. It was fine in the store for the apple worker, but after even just a few months I had to to constantly twist and unplug and replug the magsafe adapter from different angles just to get it to work, and it was like a living ****, as I am a digital artist and my wacom tablet will not work until my macbook pro is charging and the magsafe is orange, so everyday I would waste 30 minutes to an hour with the finicky magsafe, until recently my macbook pro will not turn on at all.
Since the problem arose after warranty I had to pay out of pocket for the replacement magesafe cord, which was a temporary solution, I pointed out that the magsafe power port on the laptop itself also had burn marks just like the magsafe cord that had a few pins pushed in and was slightly blackened but the attendant ignored that and said it was fine and just swapped out the cord. The "genius" attendant claimed if I just plugged in the macbook pro directly into the wall, everything would be fine and back to normal, and I did just that, I never plugged it into a power strip ever again, and still we arrive to my current predicament.
I believe I have to repair the actual power port the magsafe plugs into on the laptop, and get a new magsafe cord all over again, but it will be much more expensive than simply swapping out a cord this time, and I don't think the reason this happened to begin with has been truly identified, and I'm worried I have to make this repair every year, and I can't afford this kind of planned obsolescence, and I thought I was getting the best laptop in the world, and it was, everything was perfect not one single problem, except for this power issue, which now won't even allow me to use the computer at all and is now a giant paper weight, and leaves a dirty taste in my mouth when it comes to apple products.
I live in San Francisco in a house that was built around 1910 and don't know much about what or when renovations were made for power, but I have a feeling some kind of incorrect voltage is happening, and I was never instructed on this, and every other macbook is fine, my roommates have earlier models like the 2007 and 2009 MacBooks and have no problem like mine.
Please help me

I don't understand why and how the red light in the audio jack is still on while the computer is totally off, not connected to any power source and the battery seems to be empty... how is taht possible?
Because the battery is not empty, something is messed up, likley the SMC.
All I can advise is doing a SMC Reset, which resets the power firmware in case it got messed up and hopefully that will charge the battery up like normal.
If you can't do it or it doesn't work tommorow after charging up (turned off) overnight then just take it to Apple.

Pawn shop! They only looked after it for a stranger then the ticket ran out. Will apple accept that sell-on as a bill of sale? I'll give you 50:50 chance on that. Did you see Apple recently refused to unlock an ipad left to a guy by his mother who died of cancer. Apple wanted a court order! (Til it got on the national TV news).
Someone will have to produce the original owner's bill of sale I reckon.

Pretty simple - unless you don't recall the PIN.

Transfer of mini-DV tapes from Panasonic NV-GS120 to MacBook Pro via FireWire port (9-pin)

I am new to Mac and love it. I would like to transfer my old mini-DV tapes from Panasonic NV-GS120 to my MacBook Pro via FireWire port (9-pin), but am not sure which port to use on the video camera. Reading from the top on the Panasonic video camera there are three options: a "mini-usb" port, a "remote/mic (plug in power)" [not likely] and finally a "A/V out phones" jack entry [which I use for viewing the tapes on the TV screen via the jack cable ending up in a red, yellow and white cable to plug into TV.
I have read Bengt Wärleby's excellent instructions and am ready to buy the FireWire cable (9-pin in one end - Mac), but I am not sure if it is the mini-usb or jack-stick exit of the video camera. Or, indeed, if there is talk about an external A/V box needed to decode and transfer the digital tapes to iMovie on the Mac.
Any clarification is highly appreciated. Thanks for all suggestions.

The port you're looking for is the DV Port (in your manual it's marked as control component #55). I looked up your camera and it does have it. That's the port where the firewire should fit. Hope to have helped you.

Can you mirror iphone 4 to macbook pro using 30-pin digital av adapter?

I have an iPhone 4 and I want to be able to mirror my device onto my Macbook Pro, without using the internet. So for example if I was not in a location that had internet, I would still be able to do so. I purchased the 30-pin Digital AV Adapter online only to test it and not get anything on my screen but have iTunes open. Is this because I have an iPhone 4, would this accessory with with an iPhone 4S, or get the lightning adapater to work with the iPhone 5. Does anyone else know of other options that do not involve using internet.

I use the 30 Pin Av Adapter from Apple, and it works on my iPad 2 running iOS 6.1.3. So not sure what those reviews would be talking about.
Just to be sure there's no confusion: there's a difference between the 30 Pin Digital AV Adapter
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD098ZM/A/apple-digital-av-adapter
And the 30 Pin to Lightning Adapter
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD823ZM/A/lightning-to-30-pin-adapter
The 30 pin to Lightning in fact does not support Video output, but if you have a newer iPad. (4 or a Mini) you can use a Lightning Digital Av Adapter
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD826ZM/A/lightning-digital-av-adapter
For older iPads the 30 Pin Digital Av Adapter works just fine, in all iOS versions I've tried it on. In fact I can use it on a first generation iPad running iOS 4.3.3 to view movies from the Videos App just fine.
All of these will require an HDMi cable and a TV with an HDMI input. Most recent TV's have this.
The Apple TV will connect to an iPad wirelessly, but is also double the price of the adapters, and still requires the HDMI cable and port on the TV to connect to.
I'd suggest the adapter that fits your iPad over the Apple TV unless you really need to have the connection be wireless from the iPad to the Apple Tv box.
For Apps that don't have Video Output, the only eay to view the is to Mirror the iPads screen, and for that you need an iPad 2 or newer. As the First Generation iPad cannot do this.

MacBook Pro - How do I add 1 GB? anything special other than slipping the pin in the slot?

My Macbook Pro has Intel Core duo - 1 GB. I want to install Lion so I bought a "Crucial" 1GB pin. I know where to install it but should I do anything before and after the installation.?

2GB would help running what you have, I would not upgrade to Lion, which while the minimum may be 2GB, real world? more like 4GB.
If you are on 10.4.7, then you need SL 10.6, which was also a memory hog and would run slower, while 10.4.7 was almost the minimum OS for MBP model. 10.4.11? skipped 10.5?
So order 10.6 or wait for the 10.6 + 10.7 UsB installer to be offered late this month
Mac OS X build

Charger pin on MacBook broken; possible to fix?

The rearmost gold pin on the laptop, the one nearest the hinge for the screen, broke off and was magnetized to the surrounding area. I removed the pin, and while the power adaptor will power the laptop, it isn't charging it.
It's a six year old computer at this point. If a fix is possible and relatively inexpensive, it would help not to have to find the money to buy a new laptop. Is it possible?

Hello,
Yes it can be replaced, the part you require is called the DC Inboard.
Prices may very depending on where you buy and if you require someone to fit one for you.
This link gives you an idea of what part your looking for.
