Does Apple have some sort of Trade-In program at any of their local stores?

I bought a Mid-2010 27 in. iMac from a producer friend of mine, it has the newest OS X, a 2TB hard drive and 16 GB of RAM. I'm wondering if I could go to one of their local stores and put my current iMac towards a newer model.
If anybody has the answer please let me know.
Thanks everybody!

No, Apple do not do part exchange. You can sell your iMac on eBay and put the money towards a newer one.

I uploaded that new IOS 8.0 and now I cannot open my mail, Safari, or the new "TIPS" app. Does Apple have some sort of help, other than going to a store that is over 40 miles away?

I do backup with iCloud. I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud.
I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever. Is that right?
In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

Does Apple Have Some Type of Trade Up Plan?

I doubt this very seriously but I was wondering if Apple has some type of trade up plan where, say you have an iPod Touch Gen 2 and want to get a Touch Gen 4. Would they give you a discount for an 'upgrade' by any chance?
I seriously doubt this but I thought I'd ask anyway.

Hello Ginwho,

If you trade in your 2G iPod Touch at an Apple store, they will offer you a 10% discount on the purchase of a newer one.
You might have better luck selling the iPod on Craiglist or eBay for a little bit more cash to put towards a newer iPod.

Does apple provide app developers with servers when publishing an app on their App Store?

I want to develpo apps for mobile devices for Apple's App Store and I was just wondering if I had to have my own servers to launch the app or if Apple provides an app developer with servers. I thought they did since they charge you 99$ a year and take 30% of earnings.

Apple supplies the infrastructur for app distribution, update management and payment handling using the App Store that runs on their servers, as mentioned above.
Depending on your application you may also be able to use GameCenter or iCloud (which run on Apple servers) to support certain app features/functionality without having to run or pay for your own servers.
Depending on your needs there may also be other (non-Apple) webservices, that may reduce the amount of work that you'll need to spend, to setup and maintain your servers.

Does my MacBook have some sort of graphics lag?

Hey guys.
I've had my MacBook for two weeks now, and it’s been an "okay" experience. I detest the high-pitched sound it makes; it’s driving my crazy when I'm working on essays late at night. But alas, it’s not my primary annoyance.
Recently I've noticed horizontal lines running up the screen when the Flurry screen saver is running (Screen grab: http://img113.imageshack.us/my.php?image=picture4jc0.png). This line runs up the screen every few seconds, and its really irritating. Presumably this is something to do with the MacBook graphics chip? I would really like to know if this problem occurs in other MacBooks or if I have some sort of defect in mine.
It also does the above when viewing iTunes visualisations in full screen.
Any thoughts/comments would be gratefully received.
Cheers,
Chris.

Devin,
Thanks for the advice. Much appreciated.
I did the test and got a score of 84 which seems to be pretty average for a MacBook, compared it to a few and the memory seemed to compare well to most MacBooks (Link: http://db.xbench.com/merge.xhtml?doc1=188535&doc2=1)
Not really sure then - If your MacBook, and presumable others, struggle on it, then maybe it is just literally the chip working as hard as it can. I'm just trying to reassure my self that I don’t have a faulty unit.
On a side note, the high pitched sound on mine comes from the top left of the machine near power adapter connection - It exerts the high pitched noise whether or not it is plugged into the AC power. It's not so bad in the day, as I don't really hear it in louder surroundings, but at night it’s absolutely infuriating - I just run a few programs in the background and it fortunately stops. Certainly not ideal, I'll probably end up phoning Apple Care about it, as I'm sure it’s not an intended sound.

Really?!? As an Android phone user, I find that Apple does everything the hard way. Android is much simpler to use, in my opinion. You want to delte a photo or an app? Just delete it from your device. It won't keep popping by up every time you do a sync with iTunes........oh, wait. You don't have to do that on an Android device .
Good thing I like Android, because after today's announcement, when my now obsolete, no longer being made or sold iPad 3 bites the dust (obviously sooner than later since Apple is no longer making it for "some" reason......hint, hint) I will return to an Android device for my next tablet. I waivered back and forth numerous times before I decided to go with the iPad 3 over an Android tablet. My bad! Thanks, Apple. Lesson learned.

I downloaded some home movies onto my IMac but could not find a way to burn them to a DVD. Does Apple have software to do this or do I need to purchase one. If so, what is recommended.

Do you want to create a video DVD that will plan on a TV set via a DVD player or just burn the video files to a data DVD disk for storage?
If the former the read the following:
If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailier like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Softwareor eBay.com. Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.
Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. Select Size = Medium or Large.
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
However, there are video DVD authoring apps that are available at the App Store that will create a video DVD disk. They won't be as extensive as iDVD but can create a simple video DVD.
iDVD 7.1.2 is compatible with iDVD but we don't if it will be with the next system generation.

Does Apple offer any sort of trade-in program?

I think it's silly that they release a new model every year, but I guess that's just the way the industry works. Unfortunately, I don't have the money to buy a new model every year, so I want to know if Apple has any sort of trade-in program where iPod (touch) owners can trade in their old model towards the new model.

Technology moves fast, which means many capable gadgets go from daily use to trash heap fairly quickly within a yearly basis. What was worth months ago becomes an obsolete technology as with Ipod upgrades every fall. I hate to bring bad news, but there is no trade-in program that apple offers to recycle your old gadget for cash. However that doesn't mean that other companies offer that same service for apple Ipods. Let me give you the information you need of those online service trade for old gadgets.

HT5423 Does Apple have anything official documentation listing compliance with UN38.3, UL 2054, and UL 60950-1?

While it's nice to claim compliance in a Press Release, does Apple have anything official backing this up, like a test certificate, or at lease a Statement of Conformity listing UN38.3, UL 2054, and UL 60950-1? These aren't listed in Apple's "Important Product Information Guide."

Obviously aviation is a special use of the iPad. You come to a forum of regular users with an attitude about Apple and it takes numerous posts before you so much as give us a hint as to your (alleged) real needs. Perhaps if you're really interested in the information, rather than simply trying to make some sort of a point, you would ask United Airlines or American Airlines why they chose the iPad. Naturally, you could also ask the FAA why they gave their approval. In fact, you could always ask Apple, which apparently you never did.
On the other hand, you could simply stay here foolishly trying to make a point about Apple.

My wife is very color deficient and has a hard time with the font colors in call log. Any way to change and does Apple have plans to correct?

My wife is color deficient and has a hard time with the font colors in the phone log and messaging. Is there any way to change color or background and does Apple have plans to correct this?

There are some minor settings in Accessibility that you can look at, however it really isn't much for color changing. As far as what Apple might have in mind, we are not Apple here, we are users like you. It is against the terms of service to speculate what Apple might have in mind.

Read ADE DRMd Epub books on the iPad - Does Apple have an app for this?

I have some books in ADE DRMd Epub and I would like to read them on my iPAD. Does apple have an app to read these type of books?

Ask Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support visit online support site.
Ask at the school, as well. If there is a disability organization for the specific disability then make inquiry of that organization.

Does apple have an app for the iMac which is similar to Microsoft office?

does apple have an app which is equivelant to microsoft office?

http://www.apple.com/iwork/
However, I don't think the current version runs on any of the pre-2006 iMacs this forum covers. If you iMac is pre-2006, we can give you some options if you tell us more about your computer, mainly processor type and Mac OSX version from "About this Mac" in your Apple menu.
Microsoft makes Office for Mac but, again, what you can run depends on what iMac variant you have and its OS version.

I just purchased an ipad, and now my husband is seriously thinking of purchasing one also. When we buy a book do we have to make 2 purchases of the same book for each ipad? Or does Apple have the same arrangement as the Amazon kindle.

I have just purchased an Ipad, and now my husband is seriously thinking of also acquiring one. When we purchase books must we buy 2 of each title, or does Apple have a similar arrangement as the Amazon kindle?

If you use the one iTunes account between the two of you then you can both download the ibook onto your iPads - I have some of my ibooks on both my iPad and iPhone. If you decide to have separate iTunes accounts then if you use the same computer's iTunes to sync to (with both accounts authorised on it) then you should be able to sync the book to iBooks on both devices.
If you have separate accounts and sync to separate computers then you can copy the ibooks between the computers via, for example, a flash-drive and add it to the second computer's iTunes (File > Add To Library). There is a risk that if you sign into the second iPad (or computer) with a different iTunes account and re-download one of its past purchases that the iPad (or comptuer) will become tied to that account for 90 days, so copying it over manually would be better than re-downloading : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627
