cracked my mac pro laptop screen can i get it fixed
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Of course, but as accidental damages aren't covered by the warranty, you will have to pay for the screen. Take the MacBook to an Apple Store or reseller to get your screen replaced

On my Mac Pro how can I get voiceover to start reading at a specific point in a document, and then continue on to the next paragraph and so on? Thank you. Ed
Welcome to the Apple family!!!!
How can I cause the VO cursor(box) show-up/start?
Press Control-Option and F5. The F5 key is located on the top row of keys 6th key over. This is a toggling "Keyboard Shortcut" for turning VoiceOver on and off.
How can I move the VO cursor to various sentences or paragraphs of an article and have it start reading ... and perhaps even continue reading on to the next paragraph(s) ... even to the end of the article?
How to read a website with VoiceOver
Step 1: Go to the Website
A quick keyboard shortcut is Command-L. This will jump you up to the address bar. Start typing where you want to go. i.e "www.thewebsite.com"
Step 2: Working with Webpage
VoiceOver will automatically start reading the website. You can pause the speech by hitting the 'Control Button'.
If VoiceOver does not being reading the webpage, then you might have to "Interact" with it. If VoiceOver say "HTML Content" then press Control-Option-Space-Down Arrow to interact with the webpage.
Use Control-Option-Right Arrow to move throught the website. This will speak "EVERYTHING" on the page.
Most website that I've found have their articles labeled as 'Heading'. You can jump from heading to heading, by pressing Control-Option-Shift-H.
If you'd like an itemized alphabetical listing of the site, press Control-Option-I
Press Control-Option-Space on the link or article you want to view.
Step 3. Reading from Top to Bottom
Once you found and clicked on the the article/link, use the same 'Heading' command, Control-Option-Shift-H to find the title.
After finding the title, press Control-Option-A will start reading from the title on.
Note: If there are any other items (ads, pictures, etc) it will read those too.
Tip: You might be able to activate a feature called the 'Reader'. The Reader isolates the article and elimanates the ads The keyboard command is Shift-Command-R. You can also find it in the Menu Bar (Command-Option-M) under the word 'View' then 'Show Reader'.
I am using a MACPro with OSX, probably Mavericks 10.9 (where would I look to see if that is the correct information?)
You can find this information under the 'Apple menu' in the Menu Bar. To access the Menu Bar, press Control-Option-M.
Go to Apple Menu > About This Mac. This will open up another window. Use Control-Option-Right Arrow until you hear 'Version'. If you purchased it brand new from Apple within the last six month, more than likely you have Mavericks.

Chapter 6: Browsing the internet
Apple Accessibility Resource Page
The 'Commands Help' Voiceover Menu. Control-Option-H-H. (hit H twice) is my best friend. It's a searchable VoiceOver Menu with most of the VoiceOver command. Example: You are looking for the 'Read Current Paragraph' keyboard command. Press Control-Option-H-H and then type Paragraph. It will then bring up all the commands with the word paragraph. I believe there are three.
As from the Trackpad Commands, I've copied and pasted below from Appendix A: Commands and Gestures

I have a new mac pro and can't get a side scroll bar. What can I do to get this?
I have a new mac pro and can't get a side scroll bar. How can I get this?
The scroll bar is now set to appear automatically when you start scrolling with a trackpad or scroll wheel mouse. If you are using an mouse without a scrolling device, you should change a setting.
In System Preferences, click General, and in the Show Scroll Bars section, click the option for how you want it to work. If you want to see them all the time click "Always." -
Migration Assistant: Problems transferring data from PC (XP SP3) to new Mac Pro 2012 - can not get Migration Assistant to work as PC will not display verfify passcode
Hello, I am having problems migrating data from my old PC running XP (SP3) to my new Mac Pro 2012 using the Migration Assistant.
- I downloaded and installed the Windows Migration Assistant from Apple
- My Mac recognized PC and displays passcode
- The sasscode does not show / display on my PC
- My Mac is then stuck in "authenticating" loop and the PC is stuck "waiting for Mac to connect."
- Both computers are connected on same network (have connected PC on WIFI and using ethernet to Reuter)
I have looked on support site and only response I saw says to reinstall Windows Migration Assistant (which I have done)
Any ideas? If cant get this to workare there instructions for manually bring across relevant data eg itunes music and apps, photos, picasa data etc?Why not turn off the Windows firewall and uninstall any other firewall software you have installed?
If you are using a Norton product uninstall it and discard it. To fully unistall most Norton products you have to go to the Norton website and download a soecial program to completely get rid of it. The normal uninstall feature built into the program will not remove all of it. -

Apple's Limited Warranty http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/ for iPad excludes coverage for damage resulting from accident, disassembly, unauthorized service and unauthorized modifications.
The warranty will apply to the country of purchase. And if there is a problem needing repair you have to return it to the country of purchase.
Out-of-Warranty Service
If you own an iPad that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace (Apple doesn't repair) your iPad with an iPad that is new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below. (The replacement will most likely be a refurbished iPad in a brown box, however, it has a new screen, back and battery.)
iPad model
Out-of-Warranty Service Fee
iPad mini
$219
iPad 3rd, 4th, Air
$299
iPad 2, iPad
$249
A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in US dollars and are subject to local tax.
Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPad that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service. See http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad

Just bought a Mac Pro, how can I get 5.1/DTS out of this thing?
What do I need? I have a small office, don't need a high end sound system. Just something to give me good 5.1 when playing a movie (or very rarely, a game).
Thanks,Whoa whoa whoa.
Hold up here. There are a few very important things
to know about the Mac Pro and Surround Sound.
Mac Pro's (and the Quad G5's for that fact) do not
have PCI Slots. They only have PCI-E (PCI Express)
slots, and thus, there are currently NO sound cards
available that will work in your Mac Pro to provide
surround sound. M-Audio does not make a PCI-E Sound
card, so do not buy a PCI card- it won't fit. There
is nothing you can do about that until M-Audio comes
out with a PCI-E Sound Card for the Mac Pro.
You're right - I checked/verified this with M-Audio's tech support. Bummer.
Your onboard sound jack on the MP will output 2
Channels of audio (left/right). This is not surround
sound.
Didn't think so....
Your onboard Optical jack will output 2 Channels of
Digital audio from any application, game, or movie.
I thought perhaps this optical out would output 5.1 - bummer.
Any DVD that has a Dolby/DTS Surround Sound (5.1)
audio track (most do these days), can be played via
the Mac Pro's Optical port as a Dolby/DTS Audio
stream, but you REQUIRE an external decoder such as
an Amplifier.
I was afraid of that.... Can anyone suggest a good, very small form factor decoder that would fit well under/on a desk or behind a computer, or hidden somewhere out of sight?
This will give you surround sound via a DVD, only
because the sound is pre-encoded in the Dolby/DTS
format.
DVD's are my main concern - I'm not big into games myself.
Games will not be able to "encode on the fly" a
surround sound into a Dolby/DTS audio signal, so you
cannot get surround sound from the Optical port.
As far as a Dolby compatible unit goes for the
outside of the computer, I would suggest the Logitech
Z5500's. They have a nice little control-center that
handles the optical DTS streams and plays 5.1 Sound.
The system is fairly compact, save for the 10" Sub
Woofer that also has the amplifier built into it (but
that can go on the floor).
That answers my previous question from the sounds of it....
Z5500's are your best bet for a cheap, nice setup for
5.1 surround from your Mac Pro as is.
Again, I will mention this again because these forums
are *really* misleading when it comes to Mac
Surround.
-There are no PCI-E Sound cards for the Mac Pro.
-Onboard Optical will output 2 Channels only, unless
you play a Surround DVD Disk with the Dolby/DTS
audio
-Games cannot output a surround signal. Most Mac
games do not support surround regardless of if you
even had the hardware to do it.
-Your only real alternative is a Firewire box that
outputs 5.1 via Analogue cables, but even so, there
are few games that actually support surround on the
Mac.
Excellent info, thanks....
So ether way, there really isn't any point at all to
pursue an external sound card or an internal unit.
I'm sure M-Audio must eventually be releasing a PCI-Ex version of their Revolution card, don't you think?
Just use the Optical port on the Mac Pro, and you
will get 5.1 Surround. That's about it,
unfortunately. There isn't any other solution to
getting surround sound from anything other then a DVD
at this time.

Excellent post, thank you very much for the obviously accurate & detailed info.

Hi @twilat,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand that you scanner bulb is to low with your HP Officejet J4680, on Windows 8.1. I am happy to look into this for you!
Some questions for you, if you do not mind:
Are you able to place a sheet of paper on the scanner glass and make a copy of it? Or does the printer provide the same error message?
Is the printer plugged into a surge protector? Or Directly into the wall outlet? Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector. This applies to Inkjet printers as well.
If you make a copy and lift the scanner lid, do you see the light bulb come on, and the scanner bar moving?
Thank you for posting, and hope to hear from you soon!

TS2634 My Ipod Touch fell and cracked. It works but, can I get it fixed?
My Ipod Touch fell on cement and now, It is not looking in good shape..It cracked. So, i was wondering if i could find some answers. Can i get it fixed or do i need to buy a new one and lose all my progress?
If it works, make a backup. Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Back Up Now (assuming you have iOS 5.0 or later; if not, let us know).
Technically, you don't need to buy a new one. You get a discounted rate for an out-of-warranty replacement iPod since this type of damage is not covered under the warranty. For exact pricing, see: http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
You do not lose your progress if you have a backup. -

My screen is cracked and my home button is stuck down. Where can I get this fixed?
On my iPod touch 4th G my screen broke in the bottom right corner and there are spider cracks all the way up to the top of my iPod screen. Also, now my home button is stuck down; a shard of glass probably is preventing the button from popping back up. Where can I get this fixed?
Apple will exchange it for a refurbished one for $99, $149 or $199 depending up the capacity.

My mac pro screen has vertical lines... How much does it cost to get it fixed?
When you fail to give information on the exact model MBP that you have, how do you expect anyone to provide you with any specific information?
I suggest that you go to the iFixit.com and Powerbookmedic.com and look for parts and prices. That naturally assumes that you know what parts are defective and need to be replaced.
