Has anyone opted for an extended warranty/service plan for their Z
Anyone purchase one of these contracts? Seems like most of the major online retailers offer one for the ZVM. I have an order in with Crutchfield for the unit and am considering their extended service plan.
The 1294 system has a standard 3 year on-site warranty, the following are the options available;
The problem for you may be that the accidental damage cover needs to be puchased, I believe, within 90 days of purchasing the system. As you purchased an "open box" system I'm not sure if this is still possible, at best ask the shop where you purchased it; if they had purchased it as a demo-system it should be possible for you to purchase both.

yesterday I purchased a new ipod classic to replace one that had worn out. The price was $179. I wonder if I am eligible for the extended warranty for $59. Can't seem to navigate through the apple support option to get answer. Anyone know?
Put in the serial number but was not offered an extended apple care plan. I guess if you purchase a new one because your old one is out of warranty you get a deal for $179 but you don't get a chance for an extended warranty. You don't get a new box or earbuds, just a brand new iPod. Good deal but since my first died under warranty, got a new one for free, second one I smashed the screen and got a new one for (I don't remember) and now the hard drive went and I paid $179 for a new one, I was hoping to get an extended warranty. But I guess not...
Thank you! -
Has anyone managed to get HP Warranty Information into SCCM?
Has anyone managed to get HP Warranty Information into SCCM?
I have tried a few scripts that I found on the net but none of them seem to work as I believe HP updated there site this year..OK, I played around a bit (scripting from a web page isn't way beyond me) but... a few caveats. My lab isn't available right now; so all I could test was that the script ran on an HP laptop. A single HP laptop. and created the regkeys in
(in my case) HKLM\software\wow6432node\CompanyName\WarrantyInformation. So... one single test on one single workstation, and no testing of the mof edit means... I'll need your help to confirm it works.
Anyway, below is the script. Other caveats: It drops a log, and then continuously adds to the log file in %temp% (of the SYSTEM, which is using %windir%\temp). So depending upon what you want/need--you may want to change the EnableLogging
= True to EnableLogging = False (once you confirm it works on all/most of your boxes). The other caveat, of course, is to change the sCompanyname = to be your Company Name; although I suggest you don't have spaces or special characters in it. Short
'n' sweet. Then, naturally, once you have a box with the regkeys, use Mark Cochrane's RegKeytoMof 3.0 or higher to build the mof edits for you to paste to the bottom of your configuration.mof and sms_def.mof. In that blog above Eric Schloss was
using DCM as the delivery method to deliver the script to populate the regkeys--that worked for him and I see no reason it wouldn't work for everyone--so once you've tested the script interactively from a psexec -s -i cmd.exe shell on an hp box (to see it
create the regkeys) I'd make a DCM like Eric did and target a collection with a few HP laptops or desktops and confirm it works via the DCM.
Anyway, give this a try--again... only tested on 1 single, lonely little HP laptop. Needs a bigger test base!
Edit: and... even using Regkeytomof sometimes regkeys can be tricky. If the mof edit doesn't work right to pull the data back, post what you've added. someone here can usually spot if there's something not right about it and help you fix
the mof edit.
Edit #2: removed bad space, and bad copy/paste job as discovered by sevengs. Thanks!

Has anyone used Migration Assistant to move services from one system running Server to a new system?
So, I've purchased a Mac mini to replace my aging Mid 2009 mini on which I've been running Mavericks Server. In trying to answer the question of how best to move services from the old machine to the new, I've stumbled into the fact that Migration Assistant can apparently migrate not just user data for workstations and laptops, but also service data for servers. The problem is there isn't much detail in the docs about how good a job it does when going from one machine to another without changing OS releases. There's a very detailed document in the KB about going from older versions of Server to new (OS X Server: Upgrade and migration from Lion Server or Snow Leopard Server) and a general doc on migrating from another Mac under Mavericks (OS X: How to migrate data from another Mac using Mavericks) but that has no details about Server.
Has anyone used Migration Assistant to move services from one system running Server to a new system? Are there any details that are particularly important to get right? Are there things that require manual steps after Migration Assistant is done?
There are other ways I could tackle the problem, of course. I could simply swap drives between the systems, but the new system has two drives that are bigger, faster, and I intend to mirror them. That would complicate such an approach. I'd really like to keep the conversation constrained to a discussion of Migration Assistant as the primary method.yes. I migrated a server frm lion to mavericks following these notes a while back:
OS X Server: Upgrade and migration from Mountain Lion

Has anyone tried to pair the Tzumi bluetooth headphones to their iMac? My iMac will detect the device, connect to it for about 2 seconds, then shows a status of "not connected". Multiple attempts get the same result.
Edge has very clear restrictions, one being that you must have 6 months of clean payment history which you don't. Either wait until April 14, or good luck at Sprint.
I am unsure how it can be determined the payment mix up was the fault of CS, but regardless, the mix up was done. There can be any number of reasons why a payment could be missed without any fault on your part, however you are still the responsible party for the account and must live with the repercussions. -

Has anyone else had difficulty using WPA2 Internet sharing with their Apple TV? Any solutions?
Hi.
I've seen references to this on here, but no solutions.
I use my 27" 2010 iMac to share Internet in my home, latest versions of OSX and iOS.. Works fine, sharing with iPhones, an iPad and my Apple TV 2.
Recently though, I changed to WPA2, and the Apple TV can't see Home Sharing is on. If I switch security (ie WPA2) off, then it can see it again.
So has anyone found a way to use WPA2 successfully with their Apple TV?
Thanks in advance.I’d suggest uninstalling:
Blackberry software
the cycling74 driver
Any HP “utilities” (regarding the HP IO. Apple told developers to stop using Startup Items back in 10.3.)
any Adobe software you have (the “not loaded” ones are not loading because they’re incompatible.
the com.apple.CSConfig one.
facebook
google keystone agent
Unfortunately you have a lot of very questionable old, incompatible, and probably bad software on your Mac that is not playing well with Mavericks. Some of these can be difficult to uninstall, particularly if you are not familiar with poking around in Mac system folders.
You might consider cutting to the chase and doing a clean install:
backup your documents and passwords, network settings, etc.
Completely erase your hard drive
Reinstall mavericks and your apps from scratch (not from backups)
and finally replacing your documents.
It can be a good thing. Spring cleaning. If you want to go this route, let me know, I can give you some more detailed suggestions for how to do it. The advantage is you can get Mavericks running really fast and reliably, and then be more selective about what you reinstall. A lot of the stuff you have on there is probably from apps you don't even use anymore (like for your Blackberry), or that really aren't necessary. -
