Education bought MacBook for commercial use?

So I would have just emailed apple about this....but there really are no emails to reach apple at, so I had to come here. I know that Apple's education price software is not able to be used for commercial use, but what about it's hardware? I bought my Macbook through the education store...once I'm out of college, can I use this for more than personal use? Or would that go against some sort of agreement?

p.s. if this solves your issue please mark it as such for others to see. thanks.
This is from the terms of use. Just thought you would like to know.
Do not ask for points. If you feel the system is not clear to users, please provide feedback to Apple; do not instruct other users unless they ask.

Education editions for commercial use

I am a full-time student, so I am eligible to purchase an education edition (not student edition, I am aware there is a difference).
I have read on many different websites that education editions can be used for commercial use, but I just want to confirm that this is true in Australia, and is for ANY commercial use - I am starting a business while still a full-time student, so I will have my own ABN and everything.

You can in the US you can't in Europe. I don't know about Australia. You will need to call Adobe Australia.

Why does the terms for logic say we cant run these programs for commercial use

question i have regarding the terms for garage band and logic terms where is says just under section 2 it says ((i) to download, install, use and run for personal, non-commercial use, one (1) copy of the Apple
Software directly on each Apple-branded computer running OS X (“Mac Computer”) that you
own or control; and)
im not sure if it means i cant use garage band or logic to produce music for clients for commercial use ?
check it out here
http://images.apple.com/legal/sla/docs/LogicPro.pdf
http://images.apple.com/legal/sla/docs/GarageBand.pdf

Section C/2/A/(ii) of the Logic Pro document says:
if you are a commercial enterprise or educational institution, to download, install, use and run
one (1) copy of the Apple Software for use either: (a) by a single individual on each of the Mac Computer(s) that you own or control, or (b) by multiple individuals on a single shared Mac Computer that you own or control.
and section C/2/B says:
The Apple Software may contain sample content including but not limited to artwork, audio files, audio loops, built-in sound files, graphics, images, impulse responses, photographs, samples, sound sets, sound settings, video files, or similar assets (“Sample Content”). This Sample Content is proprietary to Apple and/or its licensors, and is protected by applicable intellectual property and other laws, including but not limited to copyright. Except as otherwise provided, all Sample Content included in the Apple Software may be used on a royalty-free basis to create your own original soundtracks for your film, video and audio projects. You may broadcast and/or distribute your own soundtracks that were created using the Sample Content, however, individual Sample Content assets may not be commercially or otherwise distributed on a standalone basis, nor may they be repackaged in whole or in part as audio samples, clipart, music beds, sound effects, sound files, sound libraries, stock animation, or similar assets.
(my emphasis).
All this would seem to cover you for the use you propose (this is not a legal opinion). GarageBand is presumably similar.

Photoshop cs2 student version, can it be used for commercial use?

Some years ago I bought an Adobe Photoshop cs2 student version. Can it be used for commercial use now?

Hi Bob,
Another guy posted on the thread:
"Yes, if you are in the United States. Maybe in other countries."
So if I am from Denmark, does the "Yes" still apply?

Student/Teacher edition for commercial use?

I received the student/teacher version of the CS6 Master collection from my school which I am currently enrolled at and I have recently started a production company with some colleagues and will be heavily using Premier Pro, After Effects and other applications for our business. We will be making money for our services so my question is will it be ok for me to use the student/teacher edition or will I need to get a CC subscription for commercial use?
Thanks!
Richard

is will it be ok for me to use the student/teacher edition
Yes.

Upgrading student edition for commercial use?

hello
i have called up the Adobe customer service line twice now and been given two different answers to my questions, so i have decided i would give the adobe forum a go as you guys seem on the ball, and most likely don't work in an Indian call centre.
My two questions are:
1) Can CS4 design premium student edition be used for commercial use in Australia?
( It seems like a stupid question because it says not for commercial gain, but i have called up the Adobe customer service line and i was told i was able to use it for commercial gain. I made sure to note that i was in Australia and not in North America.)
2) If i cannot, am i able to upgrade the student edition so i can use it for commercial gain? If Yes can you please share with me a link or supply some further information.
( The second call centre guy said yes to this question, but didn't explain himself very well.)
Any information would be appreciated, as i hope to start doing some commercial work this year.

Hi Wyllium,
I do not know where you found the above information, but here are few links on Adobe site which confirms that the Education version products can be used for commercial purpose:

Is it FREE for commercial use?

Dear all,
Has been using Skype for the past few years, and mostly for my personal usage.
Just to clarify something about Skype Licensing, is it FREE for commercial use? For example, I myself and my current/ex colleagues are using Skype for working related purposes, be it just texting or calls or video calls. Do we need to purchase licenses/subscription for commercial use? For your reference, we're from Malaysia.
Appreciate if anyone there care to explain on this matter.

I would start by looking at Oracle information - while we can provide hints and give guidance, Oracle is the only legal source for license information.
My suggestion in general is to use the Oracle site and the Oracle docs, and take a hard copy of that information as backup in case of legal challenges.
That said, the intent for XE is to provide a 'no license fee to put into production' version of Oracle Database Server. It has limited functionality (no Java in DB, limited storage and memory) so it is not generally a worry for Oracle. The supporting references are
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/express-edition/overview/index.html - which says "It's free to develop, deploy, and distribute; ..." and
"Oracle Database XE is a great starter database for:
Developers working on PHP, Java, .NET, XML, and Open Source applications
DBAs who need a free, starter database for training and deployment

Student License for commercial-use, in Italy

Hi there!
I would want to buy a student license for Flash Professional CS5, but I have some doubts about it.
Can I use this kind of license for commercial use, like creating websites for works, or selling my games on Steam?
I've read a older topic, and someone said that policy varies depending on the states, so I would like to be sure before buying it.

Hey there Attilio, you should find the answer in the student edition FAQ for your country:

Oracle XE, is it really free for commercial use?

Hi All,
I have tried to read and understand the licensing terms of Oracle XE.
Still want to ask experts,
Is it free for commercial use?
If I develop a product and distribute Oracle XE packaged with my product, charging the customer for my product, but not paying anybody for XE, is that legal?
If I want to develop and use a in-house application in XE is that legal as well?
Thoughts please.
Thanks in advance

HP Laserjet1012 only prints Not For Commercial Use

Have HP Laserjet 1012 installed on Dell Latitute E6410 running Windows 7. Found a You Tube video for setup. Using port DOT4_001, and HP Laserjet0355 PCL5(Microsoft) driver.
Problem: whentyou print test page, the printout has a black background and Not For Commercial Use printed on a diagonal in white.
If you open a document to print, it spools to this printer but the message is this Not for Cummercial Use.
Any ideas???

Perhaps the application you are using (Word?) is generating the watermark; or perhaps a watermark setting in the printer driver settings?
What happens if you try to print a simple text document from NotePad?
