Could I upgrade?

I have an aluminum MacBook. The one that was out for like six months and then got bumped up to Pro. I'm finding myself needing firewire more and more lately. If I were to contact Apple, would I be able to send this back for a new one? I am willing to pay some extra, I just can't pay full price and I think it's pretty messed up that they sell this for a few months and then upgrade it and don't announce any kind of trade in program or something.

Oh boy. I was afraid someone would say that XD
Well, I really can't not have a computer right now. I'm using it for high school and I'm going to be taking college classes, I really can't afford to go however long it will be between the time it takes for me to sell this thing and get a new one. Thanks for your help, though!

    how could iI upgrade my OS from Mac OS 10.5.8 to the Latest version Mountain Lion

    Hello,
    You need to get 10.6 & update to 10.6.8 first to be able to buy it from the App Store & download it.
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...

    It's been pulled from the online store, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard, but quick, call before it's gone!
    Call Apple 1-800-MY-APPLE
    You have to get 10.6.8 first to go even higher to 10.7 or 10.8

  • Could I upgrade my 2008 r2 Standard license to Enterprise ?

    Could I upgrade my 2008 r2 Standard license to Enterprise ?
    is there anything related to 2012 licenses ??

    Hi,
    There are no possibility to upgrade your 2008 R2 Standard Edition to Enterprise Edition. It was possible only before the availability of the 2012 Version for customers with active Software assurance for Standard Edition in open value with the step UP license
    from Standard to Enterprise.
    Actually, the only way to have the 2008 R2 enterprise Edition is to purchase the Standard Edition of Windows Server 2012 R2 Version than you may downgrade to the Enterprise Edition 2008 R2.
    Note: for Enterprise Edition 2008 R2 you have one physical + 4 VMs. if you downgrade your Standard Edition 2012 R2 to Enterprise 2008 R2, you receive only 2 VMs for your Enterprise Edition. If you wants to have 4 VMs, than you need two Windows Server 2012
    R2 Standard Edition licenses.
    I hope is helpful
    thanks

  • Could not upgrade online and select in-store pickup

    Could not upgrade online and select in-store pickup. I tried several times on my phone and on my computer. Just no option was on site to select for in-store pickup.
    I finally used the chat now to get help. The person said they could help me with this. All this person did did was give me a toll free number to call. I could have just called the toll free number myself, without using the chat now.  When I called the toll free number, the person then passed me along to someone else.  The 3rd CS rep called a store to make sure they had the phones in stock that I was upgrading to. Did this CS rep set me up for in-store pickup? No,, again I was given another phone number and name of person to call and talk to. This was the sales clerk at the Verizon store that I use. The sales clerk could not and would not set up an appt. for today (Fri), due to IPhone6 release so have to wait til Sat.
    Not one single CS even attempted to help get my online order placed and to use in-store pickup. I have used online help chat many times with other companies and they always got things set up for you. I hope the store clerk is more helpful than Verizon's customer service was (or lack of service).

    It can be fun to shop for cool fun things for a new place, so I’m sure you were excited to receive a 10% off coupon just by registering your new address with USPS.
    As you may be aware of, there are many different versions of our Mover’s Coupon available, and it’s one reason why we must adhere to the terms and conditions stated on the coupon. If your individual coupon states it’s available in-store only, we’d be unable to apply it to an online order.

  • HT1338 Could I upgrade the Graphic Card to 1GB? my current Graphic is 256.

    Could I upgrade the Graphic Card to 1GB? my current Graphic is 256.

    You refer to an article about updating software. But the graphics card is hardware.
    You can upgrade the graphics card on MacPros but on other Macs the graphics card is part of the processor, so it would be very costly. Also, not exactly a do-it-yourself job.

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.0.1. For the iPad Mini the iOS is 6.0.2. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • Opinions sought: could Yosemite upgrade affect hardware?

    Hi there,
    I installed Yosemite on my late-2010 MacBook Pro last week and had a whole host of problems, including an erratic/unresponsive trackpad, which got worse the longer the computer was running.
    Due to some poor decisions on my part [!] I ended up with a totally broken machine, so reinstalled Snow Leopard from DVD. Thought the trackpad would work normally again, but the problem persisted, albeit to a lesser degree. Mentioned it to a friend, saying it was odd as I'd not had dropped my laptop or had any spills and she told me that someone she knows at Apple had said that software upgrades could, in fact, affect the hardware.
    Roll forward a week, I'm at the Genius Bar explaining my story and the Genius talks to his manager. Comes back and insists that because the trackpad issue happens on two operating systems, it must be a coincidence that it happened at the same time as I installed Yosemite, and as the machine is out of warranty I'll have to pay for a new trackpad to be installed. Seeing thousands of people here and on Reddit etc. with difficulties after upgrading makes me suspicious that we've all had coincidences like this, but maybe he was right... I notice in the work authorisation document, he didn't make any mention of installing Yosemite, which has annoyed me a bit.
    I'm mostly curious what people think. I'm not too upset about having to pay for a £70 repair on a four-year-old machine, even though in my head I'm utterly convinced it was because of the Yosemite upgrade that it stopped working. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
    Thanks for your time, knowledgeable Apple Support Communities users!

    Was definitely worth leaving it to the professionals then!
    I have it back now. They blamed a liquid spill... that happened so long ago (mid-August – when I said in my original post I'd not had any spills, I meant since I'd upgraded to Yosemite last week) that I didn't think it could possibly be that. So lesson learned, a liquid spill that doesn't cause a single problem for three months can suddenly cause your computer to become totally useless.
    But they've also reinstalled Yosemite, so I feel like I've got a new computer for £70 or so, which is pretty sweet. And they said between 3-5 days, but I had it back within 24 hours.

  • Could i upgrade from my current laptop graphics to a Nvidia GTX 840m

    I have a HP Pavillion 17-e153sa and i wondered if i could upgrade the graphics to a Nvidia GTX 840m, this is due to me want a better experience during gaming? As i do not know if it would invole me replacing the whole motherboard. 

    Anything like that would involve replacing the whole motherboard. The laptop is fairly new and the cost of swapping in another motherboard is going to be more than it would cost net to simply sell your laptop and buy one with the graphics you want/need.

  • I had whats up installed on my 3g I phone and after resetting factory settings to hopefully upgrade to 4.3 it won;t let me download whatsupp saying that I needed a 4.3...still could not upgrade to a 4.3...Help

    I had whats up installed on my 3g I phone.   I was trying to upgrade my software to 4.3 and I was told that I had to wipe my phone and then reset to factory settings.  I did that still could not find an upgrade for 4.3 and now my phone is telling me that I need 4.3 to install whats up, when It was previously on the same phone....help anyone?

    You need to either reload a compatible version of it from an iTunes library which contains it, or sell the iPhone and put the money towards a newer device. An iPhone 3G can't be updated past 4.2.1.

  • Error 1714. Error 1603. could not upgrade itunes

    when i tried upgrading to iTunes 6, i got the following errorr.
    Error 1714: Older version could not be uninstalled.
    Then i got another, Error 1603, saying itunes.msi was not found or something like that. what must be done? I use a iPod Shuffle.

    hi dooby!
    hmmmm. let's first try completely uninstalling your itunes and QT using the instructions given here:
    Troubleshooting iTunes, iPod Software, and QuickTime installation on Windows
    if you run into trouble on the uninstall, try using the Windows Installer CleanUp utility:
    Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
    ... and even if you don't run into trouble on the uninstall, run CleanUp anyway to make sure you've removed any leftover QT/itunes installation registry entries.
    then let's try another itunes reinstall. download and save a fresh copy of the installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than on-line.) switch off any antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
    iTunes 6.0.1.3 Installer
    keep us posted on your progress.
