Configure my macBook in an Apple Store

Hello !
I'm going to buy the MacBook White in an Apple Store and I'd like to configure it : 2 GB RAM and 160 GB hard drive and a French keyboard.
Is it possible to configure a MacBook like I want in an Apple Store or should I buy it in the Apple Store Online to configure it ?
Thank you

Salut Justine,
I would be surprised if an American Apple store had French keyboard MacBooks in stock. It can't harm to ask of course I had a quick look on the American online store at Apple.com and you can choose French as a keyboard layout when ordering (and supposedly it's available in 1-3 business days).
I'm not sure where you got those prices from though Are those educational prices? The normal ones on the stores (in France and USA) are different to what you mention.
Enjoy your visit and your new MacBook wherever you get it!

  • Non-standard configuration macbook Pro in Apple Store

    After a few weeks I'll be in a tourist trip in Hong Kong. And I want to buy a macbook pro 13' non-standard configuration (i7 256gb 16gb RAM). All configurations are sold at the apple store? If not, can I have something to pre-book macbook and pick up on arrival? Or to apple brought him to the hotel?
    (через несколько недель я буду в туристической поездке в гонк конге. И я хочу купить macbook pro 13' нестандартной комплектации (i7 256gb 16gb RAM). Все ли configurations продаются в apple store? Если нет, то смогу ли я как нибудь заранее заказать macbook и забрать по приезду? Или чтобы apple доставили его в hotel?)

    I had to open my Macbook to change hard drives today. I used one of these guides. http://eshop.macsales.com/installvideos/
    While I had it open I thought of cleaning the dust. I used a dust blower and a vaccum but I could see the fan was still dirty. I deciced to remove it. It was just 3 screws, I didn't disconnect any wires, just moved it to the side. There I saw 1/4 inch thick dust on the grill that separates the fan from the external. Looked something like this
    Dust sticks on the grill like lint on a dryer and there is no way to remove it without removing the fan. Now that it's clean I can't hear the fan anymore unless I put my ear on the keyboard, plus it doesn't have to run all the time because when it runs it's much more effective.

  • I'm signed in to my account on my macbook air's apple store, but when I try to update any apps, it has a locked in apple store user which is not mine, any help removing this?

    I'm signed in to my account on my macbook air's apple store, but when I try to update any apps, it has a locked in apple store user which is not mine. I have no idea where this user came from, but I need to update my apps and get this user off my computer. The users email is locked, it is grey in colour and I can not get it off. I've tried my system settings and the app store, logging in does not change the fact that there is a strange email there. I need help, please! I don't know if this is a hack or what, I brought my computer into the shop to get some work done so it may be their account, I just need the account removed.

    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store may prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app may be something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
    File ▹ Find
    from the menu bar. In the search window, select
    Search: This Mac
    from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
    Other...
    A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
    Raw Query
    as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
    Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
    The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.

  • I got my macbook back from apple store and now it wont start

    I took my macbook to the Apple store to get keyboard replaced. Now, I can't get it to boot up past the Apple screen with the spinning dial beneath it. I there anything I can do at home or should I take it back? More importantly, is this a fix I'm going to have to pay for because my computer is no longer covered by warranty?

    HI. Try botting up your Macbook using the install disk (insert the install disc and press C). On the menu bar, click on disk utility and try repairing the disk and disk permissions.

  • Installing Window 7 on my macbook at the Apple store??

    Hello

    Because i heard one of my friends installed Window xp on his for free by taking it to the Apple store..

    You should not find installing to be difficult, you will learn if you do it yourself and gain confidence.

  • CTO Macbook Air at apple store in Melbourne

    If I place an order for CTO Macbook Air at apple store in Melbourne, by when can I pick it from Apple store in Sydney. Unfortunately, apple austrailia's website does not accept credit cards other than those issued in Austrailia.

    call one of the stores and ask them.

  • I just took in my macbook to the apple store to clean the fan because it was starting make a little noise but instead of making it stop it sounds like an airplane about to take off all the time, it doesn't matter what i'm doing. I dont know what to do now

    I just took in my macbook to the apple store to clean the fan because it was starting make a little noise but instead of making it stop it sounds like an airplane about to take off all the time, it doesn't matter what i'm doing. I dont know what to do now? any ideas on how to make it stop?

    take it back asap.  If it wasn't doing it before they cleaned the fans, they may have accidentally done something that is causing this behavior.

  • Can I buy a Macbook Pro from Apple store Singapore and send it to Italy?

    I' m wandering if I can buy a Macbook Pro Display Retina from Apple Store Singapore online and then send it to Italy. Please answer.
    Thank you :)

    They will not send it to Italy.
    If you want to take possession in Singapore and ship it yourself to Italy, you could.
    When it arrives in Italy, your new MacBook will be subject to VAT at its brand-new value, perhaps 17 percent of the full Retail price.
    I am not sure what you are trying to accomplish, but this does not seem to save you any money.

  • Better Specs MacBook Pro at Apple Stores

    Hi. I live abroad, but I'm going to travel this weekend to the US and I'm interested in a MacBookPro Retina Display but I want it increased RAM to 16 GB. As far as I know, one can only enhance a Mac through the online store which only accepts US Credit Cards. So, my question is: Do you have 'enhanced' macbooks at the stores or, definitely, the only way I have to purchase a 16 GB of RAM MacBookPro Retina Display is through the online store? Note that the second option makes it impossible for me to purchase one, because I have no US Credit Card. Which are my options?
    By the way, I have the same question with the MacBook Air of 8GB (no matter the screen size), are they available at the Apple Stores or just through the online stores?
    Thank you.

    This is not Apple. This is a user forum. If you need to ask the Apple Store a question:

  • Is it possible to upgrade a Macbook at retail apple store or buy upgraded?

    I want to buy an upgraded macbook pro. Does the apple stores sell it or upgrade mine? Or just online?
    Thanks

    You should be able to purchase an upgraded MBP at a retail store but there may be a wait period involved.  Same is the case for an online purchase.
    Now if you want to upgrade the RAM or HDD on a non-retina MBP only, it is much more cost effective to do so by purchasing from third party vendors the components and installing them yourself.  This does not apply to CPUs and display modifications.
    Ciao.

  • No audio in quicktime after getting MacBook back from Apple Store

    Since getting my MacBook back from the shop (they claim it was a mechanical HD failure but it seems more likely the crash was caused by the 10.4.11 update), Quicktime movies play with video, but no sound. I've tried going into the MIDI Audio utility, but all I see is "Audio output not supported." The text is grey and I can't do anything.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    Take your computer back to the Apple Store so that your computer can be fixed properly.
    When it’s time to pick up your computer from the repair shop/Apple Store:
    * Before you leave the repair shop/Apple Store, make sure you have the repair tech(s) power the comp up and demonstrate that it is indeed working & repaired properly too your satisfaction.*

  • 3rd Party Retina Macbook Return to Apple Store

    So I bought an 8gb retina macbook pro from a 3rd party, and want the 16gb version (No captain hindsights please, I know, shoulda thought ahead, didn't =/). Would the Apple Store be at all helpful as far as returns and replacing goes?

    Was it from a person or company. I would not think any company that was not an authorized Apple Reseller would have any Retina MBPs as Apple can't get any to there own stores let along authorized reseller.
    So I'm guessing it was from a person and he had bought it and sold it to you.
    In any event your Mac has a 1 year warranty which is good world wide. Unless of course if it was stolen like from a truck shipment or something.
    Along with that 1 year warranty you can get the extended Applecare that will give you 3 total years of warranty.
    Have you tried to register it on the Apple web site?

  • Hi , if I bought a macbook through the apple store, can I make the keyboard included arabic

    hi there !
    i wanna buy a refurbished macbook pro from the apple store online
    can aplle store make the keyboard includes 2 langauges (English , Arabic) ??
    and the free shipping , does it include the over seas ( to Saudi Arabia ) ??
    thank u

    i live in saudi arabia..and got a mbp from us....
    well you have multiple options..
    1. get a mbp from apple store and use the iwasel service from saudi post to get it to you. many times apple store doesnot accept saudi credit cards. if you do..then  you could add some good quality keyboard stickers to the keys to make them arabic.
    2.get a mbp in saudi from www.i-weaver.com they provide them with arabic keyboards.

  • May I bring a macbook to the apple store if I didn't purchase it there?

    I was walking home yesterday and I got caught in a down pour about halfway home.  I laid out my mac upside down with the battery out for several hours, and when turned on would not work.  I purchased my mac off Amazon, and was curios if I was still able to bring it in to the apple store to be looked at.

    if you take it to the apple store they will typically do a diagnostic on the mac free of charge and be able to tell you exactly what needs to be repaired and/or replaced on the mac and what the cost will be since neither the apple hardware warranty nor the applecare protection plan cover accidental/liquid damage
    best of luck!
