does anyone know if the mac laptops go on sale before Christmas?

Well past experience shows that they are on sale on Black Friday (online only, I believe).
Also, I personally would highly recommend the refurb store. There are always discounts there and you can usually get current model Macs with full warranty and the option for AppleCare.

  • Does anyone know when the Mac Pro switched from ATA to SATA DVD Drives

    Does anyone know when the Mac Pro switched from ATA to SATA DVD Drives ?
    I tried to find this answer online but failed.

    Appears the Mac Pro (Early 2008) is the last model to suggest Ultra ATA/100 optical.
    And with an optional card, use Serial Attached SCSI via Mac Pro Raid.
    This kind of information gets sketchy in that the hard drive bus and other parts are SATA
    and only this (and earlier) model Mac Pro has optical drive interface w/ Ultra ATA/100. The
    logic board on the early 2008 appears to have two Serial ATA ports, 3.0GBPS; so to check
    these, you may need to look into specification in iFixit.com repair guides, any takeapart
    guides, and note specifications in everymac.com and those from mactracker.ca.
    The MacPro after Early 2008 model build series (Early 2009) appears to sport an optical
    drive with 18x speed, compared to Early 2008 & before, whose drives indicate 16x spec.
    Other changes may be indicated by certain parts and differences; processors, graphic
    support, and those kinds of things. 2008 shows dual-core, afterward, quad-core.
    So on what little I found, that would appear to be the divide or when optical drive spec
    on the logic board changed from Ultra ATA/100 to SATA versions. But double check.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • On my Mac Mini, I keep getting this error message: "iCloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server".  I don't have any problems with iCloud on my laptop / PC.  It works fine... Does anyone know what the problem could be?

    Your Mac must be on Lion (10.7) to run iCloud. Apple had to change the operating system to fully support it. Nevertheless, it is possible to get emails from iCloud without having Lion. Please tell me if this interests you.
    Anyways, here is the link to buy Lion (30 dollars, totally worth the upgrade ): http://itunes.apple.com/be/app/os-x-lion/id444303913?mt=12

  • HT3819 how do I share movies/music between my computers. I have opened shared on both computers and both are on, but i am not able to drag anything from one to the other. Does anyone know where the settings button is on the bottom of the itunes screen?

    Oops, I forgot a step between 7 and 8 ... before syncing the iPhone I need to explicitly send the document back to iTunes on the iPhone, or the changes won't come over at all ...
    and then one more thing ... Numbers on iOS does NOT recognize a number of key features of the OSX app, such as conditional formatting ... so after editing my document on iOS and syncing it back to OSX on my Mac, all of those settings are lost (no more conditional formatting, have to do it all over again)
    What am I doing wrong ?

  • Does anyone know what the "Provision Failure: MEDIATION-5, Lrad! errors are in WCS

    Does anyone know what the "Provision Failure: MEDIATION-5, Lrad! errors are in WCS? 
    I get this when pushing an AP template to six new 3502i series access points.  The error reads like this:
    *** Apply Result for AP 'NameOfAPhere(C0:FF:EE:C0:F:EE)' ***
    **AP Parameters**
    Provision Failure: MEDIATION-5, Lrad!C0:FF:EE:C0:F:EE,secondaryMwar,No access
    MAC address has been changes to protect the names of the innocent...
    The rest of the template appears to push.  The 802.11a/n and 802.11b/g/n parameters show "success".
    Anyone have the magic decoder ring for what these messages are referring to so that I can go fix the issue?
    Thanks in adavance!

    Hi,
    Two things :
    1- Can you refresh configs from WLC to WCS and then give it a try ?
    2- Is WCS using the right read-write community string for this WLC ?
       (Since we see a "No Access" message in the error)
    Thanks..Salil

    "flying blind."
    "You totally lost me there, and I have no clue as to what your last question means."
    "I think I now know what you mean."
    Evidently language is of difficulty for you. 
    Perhaps the Oxford dictionary can provide you with your much needed “sensible, meaningful” content.
    According to the Oxford dictionary, a dialogue is to "Take part in a conversation or discussion to resolve a problem."  It also states that a dialogue is "A discussion between two or more people or groups, especially one directed toward exploration of a particular subject or resolution of a problem.”
    That IS the inherent nature of posts. A conversation is reciprocation.  Questions, followed by more questions.
    It is not difficult to understand.
    "how to ask your questions correctly for quicker and better answers" is best actualized by simply asking.
    Is it a Mac; is it not, etc.
    That IS sufficient.  That IS "quicker and better answers[ing]."  That IS what a dialogue IS.   And that IS actually what is "sensible," "meaningful," and "detailed." 
    The Oxford dictionary can best delineate and elucidate your lack of comprehension in what ACTUALLY “meaning” is.
    As well as what is "sensible" AND "detailed." 
    By the way, am I being repetitive.
    Still confused.  Let the experts that do not require much explanation respond with "quicker and better answers" for both "sensible, complete" responses." They are not "lost," "blind," or provide "incomplete" drivel.

    I have an .avi file Quicktime is refusing to play, yet the information says Quicktime does play .avi files. Does anyone know what the problem is?

    AVI is a legacy file container originated by Microsoft back in 1992 and which has not been officially supported for more than a decade. Like the container, many of the codecs commonly used to create AVI content are also "legacy" compression formats most often supported on PC/Windows platforms. In fact, some codecs have never been transcoded for Mac use. Of those that have, many never made the transition to Mac OS X or the transition to Intel-based platforms. Those codecs that are still supported on the Mac can normally be found in the avi to quicktime converter available as an online download. While some common AVI compression formats may be supported by the QT X Player app, QT 7 currently provides a more compatible AVI playback environment for most "legacy" compression formats. If the codec(s) used in your AVI files are not supported by the avi to quicktime converter for QT use, you can try the VLC media player which may still support more esoteric compression formats. If  VLC does not support the files, the normal approach is to discover which specific audio and/or video codecs were used to create the file and perform an Internet search to see if a compatible Mac component is available for download.

  • Does anyone know if the beta for iMessage is down

    does anyone know if the beta for iMessage is down

    Hi,
    Can I check the following ?
    You have people in your Address Book with iPhone Numbers and/or Apple IDs listed ?
    In Messages beta you are starting with a "New Message" either from the File Menu or the icon on the top of Messages main window ?
    With a "New Message" showing you are using the blue icon that appears top right
    In this Menu drop down you are selecting Contacts and then a person from the list ?
    You are selecting this person on their iPhone or Apple ID that you know they use in iMessages ?
    You are saying that their name goes red when it is in the "To" Spot.
    Pic of a Name that has gone Blue
    Uploaded with Skitch!
    Messages may or may not have the little Speech bubble next to a Contact point as it can depend where you are in your Sync process and which Contacts you have already had.
    If the contact goes Red it could be that an email you are using is NOT an Apple ID, or it has not been linked to iMessages yet.
    It could also be that they are out of range in one form or another.
    Messages can't tell which Numbers are iPhone Numbers until the other person has Registered/Linked it to thier Apple ID or you have contacted them.
    I have had issues where In my Mac's contact List I keep only the "Local" phone number where Messages Needs the +(Country code)  bit as well.

  • Does anyone know how the cutout filter works and is there a way of achieving the same effect without using filters to get more control over final look?

    does anyone know how the cutout filter works and is there a way of achieving the same effect without using filters to get more control over final look?

    Several ways to get similar results.  Image > Adjustments > Posturize with low values similar to what you'd use n Cutout.  This is the most flexible way I can think of as you keep the image in RGB mode with layers intact.  A more radical approach would be to reduce bit depth using Indexed Colour.  You'll need to experiment with settings, try changing Forced to Primaries, and Matte to Foreground Color.  There's no going back from this route, although you can change the mode back to RGB to re-enable layers, adjustment layers etc.
    A nice thing about the Filter gallery filters is that you can change the layer to a Smart object with all the control that gives you.
    Now if only this forum could filter out bizarre content.

  • Hiya, I've got a weird problem with my iPhone4. On the 'home page' of my iPhone the mail symbol tells me there's a new mail waiting for me. However, there's no new mail to be found. Does anyone know what the problem is? Thanks

    This response is a little late as I just read about your problem. I have a 2012 Dodge Charger and a 2012 Chrysler Town and Country and both worked flawlessly with the iPhone 5s my wife and I had. However, we just upgraded to the iPhone 6 and Uconnect will receive calls but you cannot answer them. You can callout successfully, however. the annoyance being the inability to answer incoming calls in the HandsFree mode.
