Has anyone heard about updating my brand new mac to a Intel mac?

Imagine my dismay when two weeks after buying a new mac, they introduce the intel chil and Ilife 6! Has anyone heard of Apple upgrading us poor saps?

Well, I had gotten an iMac G5 just after Christmas, and it was still under the 14-day return policy, so I exchanged it for a new one.
However, it is extremely unlikely that they will replace yours if you've had it for more than 2 weeks.
Sorry...

    Hi, I'm not sure if every Off problem is the same...
    I would call Apple Corp or visit the Local Genius Bar......
    Apple do care about pre 5s iPhone owners, give them a chance to help You..

  • Has anyone heard about hotspot shield

    has anyone had anything to do with hotspot shield and is it safe

    It's a public VPN service. The point is to prevent other people at a hotspot from seeing your network traffic. It will do that, but the people who run the VPN server will see all the traffic, and moreover they will know your identity. How much do you trust them?
    With or without a VPN, the traffic all ends up on the open Internet eventually.
    If you connect only to secure websites (such as this one) and other secure services, the content of your network traffic is protected anyway.

  • Has Anyone Heard About This Story?

    I'm just wondering how many people out there have heard anything about this story regarding alleged US spying on UN Security Council members.
    http://www.observer.co.uk/iraq/story/0,12239,905936,00.html
    It's a huge story internationally, but there is silence in the American papers.

  • Has anyone heard about this problem?

    Hi, I'm in the throws of purchasing a new Evesham Axis 64 3200, but have come across this 'http://forum.pcplus.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=8260' in another forum and I'm wondering if this is a known problem. Many thanks for anybodys help! John

    I have set up Raid 0 on the Via controller and lost my array 5 times, this was on the Nforce150 and the Asus K8V and the MSI. No more VIA SATA for me. Anyway use the Promise controller its faster than the Via, and has no issues.

  • Anyone heard about Windows Embedded POSReady 7 Pro?

    Has anyone heard about Windows Embedded POSReady 7 Pro? We manufacture ATMs and were forced to switch from Windows Embedded POSReady 7 to Windows 7 Professional FES last year due to changes in the additional terms (ATs) which stated that
    POSReady 7 (without the "Pro"-suffix) must not be used with ATMs.
    Since then we started implementing OA 2.1, for being able to activate our machines automatically and had to inform all our customers that we now have to buy more expensive licenses with reduced functionality (no BitLocker in Win7Prof, no Embedded Enabling
    Features, no LP support, etc.).
    Last week I found a very interesting EULA on MyOEM.microsoft.com for the new OS-variant "Windows Embedded POSReady 7 Pro", which suddenly is allowed on ATMs explicitly:
    2. ADDITIONAL LICENSING REQUIREMENTS AND/OR USE RIGHTS
    a. Specific Use. You may use the software on a device with automated teller machine (“ATM”) as the primary functionality.
    See
    https://myoem.microsoft.com/oem/myoem/en/topics/Licensing/emblicres/Pages/DP-WinEmbPOSReady7ProEULA.aspx for details.
    Our distributor supported us and already found the ATs for Windows Embedded POSReady 7 Pro, but was also surprised that Microsoft introduced this new variant.
    Does anybody know more about it?
    Where can we (indirect embedded OEM, who purchases through distribution) get such relevant information earlier? ( The only source of information I know is the MyOEM-portal) And why did Microsoft release the new variant now?
    Best regards, Roman Maier

    I have never heard of a Pro version for POSReady 7. It is not listed in the life cycle:
    https://www.microsoft.com/windowsembedded/en-us/product-lifecycles.aspx
    Nor is there a download for it:
    https://www.microsoft.com/windowsembedded/en-us/downloads.aspx
    Sounds like someone is doing some funny business. The successor to POSReady 7 is Windows Embedded 8.x Industry, which comes in two flavors - Pro and Enterprise.

  • ITunes no longer loads after updating to Windows 8.1.  I have tried every corrective step I've found on the web (reinstall, copy files, change permissions, etc.) nothing helps.  Has anyone heard if Apple is working on fix?

    Itunes does not launch after updating to Windows 8.1.  I've tried every suggestion I can find on web (reinstall, copy files from other directories, change permissions, etc.).  Nothing works.  At best I can get the licensing agreement to show and then nothing.  Has anyone heard if a fix is in the works?

    Hi 3backpacker3,
    It sounds like you are on the right track in troubleshooting this issue. If you are having launch issues, you may find the following article helpful:

  • Has anyone heard anything about 2.0.1?

    I've read some reports that the folks from BGR claim to have found Apache server logs making reference to 2.0.1 but not much else. Has anyone heard anything more definitive on the topic?

    Likewise, no problems with 2.0. Yes, there are a lot of posts about problems. There are a lot of sick people in hospitals, also. That doesn't mean that the entire population is sick. If more than even a tiny percentage of the 6 million iPhone users had problems with their phones these boards would shut down from overload.
    This is not to say there are no real problems, but that it is a small minority that has them. People with no problems don't go to message boards just to say "I have no problems".
    I'm not saying the problems aren't real, but rather than wait for Apple to produce a 2.0.1 that might or might not fix the specific problem you are having try to do a little troubleshooting. Even it it's an Apple problem you can probably fix it yourself.

  • I heard that there was a problem with Apple being vulnerable to Hackers. Has anyone seen an update for this issue? My IPad received the update last night but I have not seen anything for Safari.

    I heard that there was a problem with Apple being vulnerable to Hackers. Has anyone seen an update for this issue? My IPad received the update last night but I have not seen anything for Safari.

    Mac OS X 10.9.2 was released today for this issue and others. Earlier versions are not affected.
    See this Apple article - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6114
    You can use the Mac app store to do the update or download it directly from here - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1725

  • Brand new Mac, had to erase drive through disk utility as time machine back up failed. Now disk utility only has the option to install Mountain Lion which my Mac won't allow. Anyone any ideas as my Mac won't load anything up but disc utility!

    Brand new Mac, had to erase drive through disk utility as time machine back up failed on initial setup, USB cable popped out Now can only access disk utility as won't load to log in screen. The only has the option in disc utility is to re-install Mountain Lion which my Mac won't allow or loading another time machine back up but after an hour of it processing, that didn't resolve the issue either! The time machine back up is the latest back up of my Mac Book Pro which was using OS X Maverix. I'm guessing I'm going to have to take my Mac to the store but that would be a hassle so does anyone have any ideas?

    Follow this guide using another Mac.
    Insert your newly created Mavericks USB into you Mac, press the power button and then hold down 'option,' until it gives you an option to boot from the USB. You will then be able to erase the internal disk with Disk Utility and reinstall Mavericks straight after.
    After that you should be able to use Migration Assistant to restore your applications and user data.

  • Has anyone received an update on apple tv issue with HD movies and what they are doing about it

    Has anyone received an update on apple tv issue with HD movies and what they are doing about it

    Whatever the rep told you, it is complete nonsense. There is clearly a problem at your end, the Apple TV 3 is capable of more than the Apple TV 2, and you clearly have the Apple TV 2 working perfectly. Since the Apple TV 2 is able to download from the Internet properly, then my suspicion would be your problem lies on your local network. Interference is a common problem on local networks.
    Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

  • 01/06/12 I am waiting to have movies in the cloud. Has anyone heard anything??

    I have bought a lot of movies from Itunes and lost them when I had to reinstall Windows 7. I did not take the time to make a backup and I am hoping Apple will put movies on the cloud. Has anyone heard any recent news about this and doesn't Apple realize that people would buy more movies if they didn't have to worry about losing them??

    First of all - if anybody did know - they could not discuss it on this site since I'm pretty sure they would be violating a non disclosure agreement with Apple - if somebody actually knew. Any other knowledge would just be rumored or speculation and that is also prohibited on this site.
    Not being able to redownload purchased movies has nothing to do with Apple not wanting to offer the feature. I'm pretty sure that It has to do with the movie studios not wanting to grant the rights to download the movies again at no cost. It really is a decision that must be made/approved by the movie studios.

  • Who has a brand new Mac with Lion?

    I've been reading about all these issues with Lion. (yes i realize most people who are happy don't post) Most of the time when someone has an issue someone else says that their system must have been screwed up prior to the upgrade or they did something wrong, or have software that causing the issue, etc. I'm wondering if any of you are having issues with Lion on a brand new Mac? A new computer that came with Lion or at least a brand new computer that you installed Lion on as soon as you took it out of the box. Something NEVER used without Lion.
    Seems to me that if the vast majority of brand new Macs that come with Lion installed are working great then the problems people are seeing may in fact be something that already existed in their system prior to the upgrade. But if people with brand new virgin Macs are having issues with Lion then it HAS to be system bugs.
    I think this information could be a good indicator if the OS has a ton of bugs or if it simply does not get along well with possible existing bugs your computer may already have.
    I have two 2009 Macs and I'd love to upgrade to Lion because i like to keep my systems current but honestly I'm afraid too!!

    I bought my iMac (mid 2011 model) in July (brand new) and have Lion 7.1 installed. I have found many things which I would class as being "a different way of doing things from what I am used to", through "oddities (some annoying)", and a few that are clearly bugs, such as the Magic Mouse pointer going AWOL for about 45 secs. once per day, very short mouse battery life (eg., a few days), Mail not showing the addressee when doing a word search. But I have not had any killer problems like many of the other posters such as Wifi not working. I just grit my teeth and hope that Apple will soon get things straight.
    Someone said that Lion should have been classed as a beta release and I think there is some truth in that. However, it is important to realise that the people who post here are the ones with problems, not satisfied customers. How many Lions have been sold? A million?
    I was put off initially when I got my iMac and was glad that at that time it came with Snowleopard, but I took the plunge and am glad that I did. I like many of the features in Lion.

  • Updated iMovie on my brand new mac mini and lost "SPEED" function.

    Updated iMovie on my brand new Mac Mini and lost "SPEED" function.

    Hello bbryson68, I'm sure you've just over-looked it.
    The answer is to click on Adjust above the Clip in Viewer, this will bring into view a adjustments bar also above the Clip.
    Now you just have to select the speed via the Turtle icon. Once the clip has been speed-up or down, you'll get a Slider
    over the clip in question & a Rabbit icon indicating the clip has been speed-up.
    If you want to  keep audio undistorted check the Preserve Pitch checkbox above the viewer.
    The Clip Slider & icon of Rabbit appear in the Clip-Trimer window below the main Clip, also check your Pref's to see if you have
    Apply Slow Motion checked? This will slow or speed up all other clips to the first clip.
