Does Apple have any services that would fix a MB Pro?

Having just returned from the Genious Bar, they told me that the MB Pro I had accidentally damaged can be fixed (for $2000 -_-) and it would be more worth it to just purchase a new MB Pro entirely. Before I make any decisions, is there a service plan that would cover accidental damage to MB Pros? I'm 99% sure I know the answer, but I just want to make absolutely sure.
Thanks.

Mine are listed on my household contents Insurance policy for any loss or damage around the home, or while being used elsewhere or in transit. It only costs a few dollars a year and is worth more than AppleCare IMHO.

  • Firefox will not play .ogv video files when loaded from a server. Does anyone have any answers that will fix this?

    I've read the suggestions for fixing this, and none of them work. I've updated my .htaccess to match MIME types for .ogv, I've uploaded the files as both Binary and ASCII, neither method works. The .ogv file plays fine when you load it from a local file, but it will not play when viewed from a remote server. I've confirmed with my hosting company that the .htaccess and all other issues for HTML5 are up-to-date. Safari and Chrome play the HTML5 videos just fine, but Firefox will not. Does anyone have any concrete answers as to what the problem is. I'm also serving up the video files as .webm and .mp4, but neither of these formats works in Firefox either.

    That can happen if the server isn't configured properly to send the files with a by Firefox supported MIME type.
    *https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Properly_Configuring_Server_MIME_Types
    Did you check via the Web Console which headers Firefox receives when requesting the .ogv file?
    If that is OK then it is possible that the file is using an unsupported coding method.

  • Does Apple have any good way of managing iPhones for business?

    I finally broke down and allowed iPhones into our company when Apple introduced the ability to provision phones like phones (e.g. don't have to teather them to a computer to set up).  This and the "business" management tools opened the door, so we got about 30 of them.
    WHAT A HUGE MISTAKE!!!!
    Apple is now going backward.  When a phone comes into our shop, we have to load up iTunes and get the phone to sync before we can do simple things like wipe the phone or troubleshoot "why did my bluetooth quit working".  All of their "enterprise focus" seems to be around security and app control, with nothing I've seen for the day-to-day keeping things running.  (Not saying app control and secuirty are unimportant, just not enough).
    Does Apple have any good business management tools that I'm missing?  I know about MDM, but too much setup for a relatively small number of phones.  Besides, my understanding is the MDM only does app management / security policy.  Right now we use Apple's stand-alone configurator.  Fine for pushing policy and apps, but useless for troubleshooting and day-to-day management (like resetting a phone back to factory configs).
    Also, is my carrior correct that Apple will not allow them to replace phones that have gone bad under warranty?  They told me for the iPhones we have to physically take them to an Apple store for troubleshooting / replacement even after 100% identifying the issue!  That is an hour (at least) wasted to send one of my folks to the store.  I know we don't just have a bad carrior, becaue they happily send out replacement on other brands after troubleshooting over the phone.
    I actually do like the overall look/feel of the iPhones.  But unless Apple becomes much more corporate-friendly, I can only recommend that companies refuse to purchase any iDevice.  BYOD, sure...but when you buy tens or hundreds of phones stick to Android, Blackberry, or even (sorry) Microsoft based devices.

    Does not seem to work that way for us.  We plug the phone in, and the first thing iTunes does is say the phone needs to be "authorized for this computer".  It also states that the phone can only be authorized for x computers.
    It then goes through it's jig while we wait, and finally comes up with the phone.  Only then can we try to wipe / update the phone.  We do stop the sync process, that automatically starts wanting to run.  Maybe has to do with a version difference between what you use and what we use.  I did notice that an older version of iTunes seemed a bit friendlier, but would not support our iPads.
    However, when we were troubleshooting the bug where wireless / bluetooth quits working it was quite a bit more difficult than this for a phone a user handed us.  Troubleshooting steps required that the phone be "restored" in iTunes.  However, iTunes insisted on our providing a password that neither we nor the user knew.  Maybe just learning curve, but it took about an hour before we were able to get that phone to a point where we could reset it.
    Here is a sincere question for you, since you say you support a fleet of phones.  Do you really NOT get annoyed when your tech has to take a iPhone to a computer with iTunes, plug it in, and work from there whenever there is a user issue that needs to have the phone wiped back to factory standard?  This compared to being able to punch a few buttons on a different phone, right there in the users office, then hand it back to the user and say "your are fixed".
    My only assumptions are that IT staff want to solve issues as quickly and efficiently as possible.  Requireing a tech to deal with iTunes for simple procedures is not, IMHO, "as quick and efficient as possible".

  • Does Apple have a service to increase Flash storage?

    I bought a Macbook Pro Retina 4 weeks ago. When I went to buy it, I intended to buy a macbook pro with 500GB, but I was sold macbook pro with only 128GB, without noticing. I didn't notice it was a 128GB macbook pro until it was too late. I have only used it twice since then and I have already missed the date for an exchange or full refund. I don't want to buy another macbook pro, which is more expensive. How do I increase the storage on the flash drive? Or how can I exchange my macbook pro for a new one with more flash storage? Does Apple provide a service that installs more flash drive storage on a macbook pro for a fee, or any similar service? I really need the extra space on the flash drive storage for work. I hope there is a simple solution to my problem.

    Contact the store where you purchased the MBP and see what they can do for you.  Currently there are no third party PCIe flash storage devices available, so Apple is your only hope.
    Ciao.

    Just to add this : iWeb -- the app itself -- is still supported,updated only months ago and as part of the ilife '11 DVDs still widely spread even though it is not sold on the AppStore it is official part of iLife. It runs in Lion and there is zero issues with the app. So a training makes sense, doesn't it ?.

  • Does Apple have any plans for a similar app as Samsung S Drive?

    Does Apple have any plans for a similar app as Samsung S Drive?
    Samsung recently released 'S-Drive' - an app for their Samsung Galaxy program which only allows certain features to be used when driving. I much prefer my Apple iPhone, but as my children grow up, this is much safer. Thoughts?

    Ah, sorry fellas, and thanks for clarifying that for me.  I thought Apple would also have tech's who monitor / respond in these forums.  My bad.  Cheers though... and let's see what they (might) do.
    Is there any way to encourage them / let them know of apps such as this and that it might be a good thing?

  • Does Apple have any future plans to add the 8x DL SuperDrive to the 15.4"?

    Just as the thread reads: Does Apple have any future plans to add the 8x SuperDrive (DVD+R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW) to the 15.4" MacBook Pro? I'm very interested in this unit for college, but I need to have DL burning capabilities.
    Thanks!

    Actually it's not a question of when Apple feel like it.
    The old Powerbook was 1.1 inches and had an 8x drive. The drive from the PB was too tall for the MBP. The 17 does not have the problem as it uses a "wider" drive, one too wide for the 15
    So until someone manufactures an 8 speed drive as thin as the 4x drive Apple can't offer it.
    I hope that helps somewhat - it may be an idea to look at what the major drive manufacturers are coming out with. Also the timings for Blue Ray and DVD HD may mean that Apple decide to skip going back to 8x drives anyway - of course that depends on the size of those drives and Apples MBP form factor staying the same.
    Totally agree with what Rachel said also.
    Best of luck.

    Apple does not pre install a/v software. There are NO Mac viruses but there is malware making it's way around the net.

  • Does Apple have any plan to add Persian support in iWork?

    Does Apple have any plan to add Persian writing support in iWork?
    like in the next updates?

    There is support, OSX has 3 input methods for Persian:
    Menu > System Preferences… > Language & Text > Input Sources > Persian/Persian - ISIRI 2901/Persian QWERTY
    but OSX has general problems with placing cursors in the right position in R to L languages.
    Mellel is currently the best solution for all the R to L languages.
    You just missed getting it in a MacUpdate Bundle.

  • My I pad 3 constantly loses my wi fi signal. Does apple have any plans to correct this or should I return it. This was not an issue at all with the original one.

    My new iPad 3 constantly loses the wi fi signal.  Does Apple have any plans to correct this issue or should I return it. I had no problem with my original I pad.  Both are in the exact same location in my house. I'm finding this very annoying and disappointing and am being forced to us my 4 g data plan 

    You may already have tried this, but before you completely give up, I'd check your home router software and also reset the router.  I haven't seen this particular issue arise on these forums with new iPad devices, so perhaps it has to do with outdated software or configuration on the router not playing well with the new device....

  • Does Apple have any more Superdrives?

    I've been waiting for over two weeks for Apple to ship a replacement Superdrive for my G5 2.7. Apparently, there is only one manufacturer. I've called two other Apple certified dealers and they tell me, "Good luck."
    Does anyone know how to get Apple to step up, or am I missing something? Fortunately, I have an Apple Care Protection Plan that covers the dead superdrive, but I still need to get my Mac back up as I make a living with it.
    My Mac is being serviced through an Apple Store.

    Hi-
    Yeah, I understand your feelings. But, in the name of production, I thought I would offer up the suggestion.
    Also, this is only a hunch, but with the number of dissatisfied users of G5's with their DVD players- Sony and LG (as I've noted in past weeks on these forums), there may be a delay due to problems with these drives. At least, I would hope something is being done to remedy this apparent problem.
    One other thought, is, with the current market wide change to RoHS compliance, there may be no OEM drives currently available due to retooling/ restart of production on the part of the makers.
