Has anyone purchased the refurb macbook pro 1.83 for £928 from the UK store

If so what are your experiences please....
I can't afford a new machine so am considering one of these...
TA !!
intel imac 17" 1.83 ghz core duo   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

I bought a refurb and have been pleasantly suprised. It looked brand new out of the package, and has been bug free. It seemed to freeze once or twice while in sleep mode, but hasn;t done that in weeks. I have been running it for ove a month now without problems.
To me, it was worth it!!!

    I have an Ipod classic sync'd to a PC. The PC is no longer working. I purchased a new MacBook pro. How can I sync the Ipod to the new Macbook pro

    Your iPod is designed to sync with only one iTunes library at a time. It will recognize the iTunes library on the Mac as a new library. If you sync the iPod with this new library, all content will be erased from the iPod and replaced with what is in the new library. So what you will want to do is copy everything from the iPod to your new iTunes library on your Mac first.
    See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

  • Has anyone noticed that your Macbook Pro is really hot after installing Lion?

    Since I have installed Lion on Friday, I have noticed that my MacBook Pro is very hot to the touch. Has anyone found this same issue?
    Haven't had any of the problems that other people have had since installing.
    What are your thoughts out there?
    Thanks,
    Michelle

    I had this same concern on mine as well until I remembered that Lion would have to index the entire drive. My MBP is using an 120GB Intel SSD so once indexing started it did not take long, about 2 hours with the drive at 59GB, but it was warm the entire time.
    My iMac (2011 version) ran hot for around 6 hours with the standard 1TB drive about half full.
    Since then I have noticed they both run a few degrees hotter than before but nothing I am concerning myself with as it's right around 100 to 100 degrees versus 90 to 100 with SL. So I beleive there are some services running that are doing alot, probably the biggy is the autosave feature.

  • Has anyone ever gotten a MacBook pro with *********** pre loaded on it?  I went into itunes, and everything was empty except for movies where there were three 15 second pornographic videos.

    As I stated in the title, I ordered my Macbook Pro from apple online.  I have had it for 4 days now and I was looking to transfer all of my songs from my mac mini to my macbook. 
    I opened up itunes and all of the categories were blank except the movies, and there were 3 of the same clips there.  It was a 15 second video that involved a guy, a girl and a slip-n-slide. 
    I have concerns as to what else is on this thing as far as viruses and other pornographic videos, even illegal material.  I was also hoping my daughter can use this for school.   The last thing I would want is for her to be doing something and stumble upon a file that would surely be inappropriate.
    Any advice?

  • When I delete an email from my hotmail account in the 'mail' application on my MacBook Pro, it is not deleted from the same 'mail' application on my iPhone 4s which my hotmail account has also been added. I thought my emails were synced over iCloud?

    It is so frustrating because I cannot understand what is wrong. When I add an event to my calender on my iPhone it appears in my calender on my MacBook which is perfect and very convenient. The same thing occurs with reminders; everything syncs perfectly here. However when I delete an email from my MacBook from the 'mail' appliaction it doesn't delete from the same built-in application on my iPhone. This is extremely frustrating as I have to delete the same email twice on two different devices. I'd appreciate any feedback that would help resolve this problem!

    Calendars (and contacts) can "sync" between your MBP and your iPhone through iCloud because they really live on the iCloud servers and the two devices are clients. iCloud can accomplish much the same trick for email messages because the email really resides on iCloud email servers.
    If the email resides on some other server, that server is responsible for whatever syncing will be done. IMAP servers like the iCloud servers are built for such syncing; other mail servers may or may not be. iCloud would not be involved with email other than iCloud email.
    I understand Hotmail has been changing how their email servers are accessed. Check with Hotmail support for any changes you may need to make to keep up.

  • Has anyone managed to deploy Acrobat Pro 9.0 for Mac through ARD?

    Has anyone managed to get Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0 for Mac to deploy with any level of reliability through tools such as Apple Remote Desktop?
    The main CS3 apps are "better", if still kludgy to deploy somewhat silently, but every time I've tried to get Acrobat Pro 9.0 to deploy, it steadfastly refuses to do so without demanding admin access on at least the first launch, and insisting on running the Updater in the process, which is completely unacceptable.
    I should say that I've looked at their Adobe Acrobat deployment site (http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/solutions/it/), and it's entirely useless for the Mac version.
    Why do Adobe make this so hard?

    Okay, I think I've figured this out.
    * On a clean machine (ie: no Adobe software), install Adobe Acrobat Pro
    * Run Acrobat. Insert license code. Allow it to "selfheal". Quit.
    * Run Distiller. Allow it to "selfheal". Quit.
    * Edit AcroEFGPro90.plist and AcroEFGDist90.plist which can be found in Contents > MacOS within the Acrobat and Distiller apps respectively.
    * Change the "Requires" tags from "YES" to "NO" for all the file resources.
    * Copy these to plist files into /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Acrobat/ and overwrite the ones that are already there.
    * Run Acrobat and Distiller again. Allow "selfheal" if prompted. Quit.
    * Run again. Quit.
    * Build a Mac OS X installer package of the following:
    /Applications/Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0
    /Applications/Utilites/Adobe Utilities
    /Library/Application Support/Adobe/
    /Library/Application Support/FLEXnet*
    /Library/Preferences/com.adobe.*
    /Library/Preferences/FLEXnet*
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins/AdobePDFViewer.plugin
    /Library/ColorSync/Profiles/
    /Library/Printers/PPD Plugins/Adobe*
    /Library/Printers/PPDs/.../.../.../ADPDF9.PPD (one per language)
    /Users/Shared/Adobe
    /usr/libexec/cups/backend/pdf900
    * After you've built the package, go through the Acrobat application bundle and find cupshup.pl. Copy it into the Resources folder of the installer package, and rename it to "postflight" (this gets the installer to configure the PDF printer).
    * Distribute through ARD.
    * Grab com.adobe.* from ~/Library/Preferences
    * Distribute the com.adobe.* files to all users; the .plist files can be done through Workgroup Manager, however com.adobe.118.registration must be copied as-is into the user folder, rather than being injected via MCX or the defaults command or any other method, as it's not a plist.
    Dear Adobe,
    MAKE THIS SIMPLER.
    Your Friend,
    etc...

  • Can I customise a macbook pro if I order it from an apple store but not the online store?

    I would be coming to Melbourne. I plan to buy a macbook pro with the retina display there. However I would need to customise it ( I plan to add some extra RAM and upgrade the processor). Ordering from the online store would be a bit inconvenient since I wont have a permanent address for a few days and I would need a laptop pretty soon. Will I be able to buy a customised one from an apple store itself? I dont mind waiting for a day or two actually.

    It may depend on the Apple Store, but I do not think they do that. Anyway, I recommend you to call to the Apple Store and ask them about this option > http://www.apple.com/au/retail/storelist
    Also, note that some Apple Stores already sell build-to-order Macs with customized hardware, so see if one of them has got the hardware you need
