This is a good deal.
I paid that for my 2009 27 inch iMac with similar specs through an Apple Reseller.
Is this from an individual or Authorized Apple Reseller?
If from an individual, then there will be no type of warranty.
An Apple Authorized Reseller wil have a warrany period of 30 days to six months depending.

I cant watch some videos on websites where i could usually watch videos before. This happened after i updated to MAC OS X 10.7.4 and a flashback malware removal tool 2 days ago. I have very little knowledge about computers so your help is very much needed n appreciated!
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only Guest login created by "Find My Mac."
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing. -
Just got my iPad 2 three days ago and noticed the battery life drops faster than I expected at least compared to the others ones around, please I need to know the cause and how to effect necessary changes that will prolong the battery life as I have gone through the settings which includes turning off the push notifications, reduce brightness and so on but that doesn't seem to help much.
FYI
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

I just got my MacBook a few days ago and I was tired of the galaxy picture so I changed it to a color since I didn't have photos at that time well now I have photos and whenever I change my background it changes back to the color after I start it up again.
You are still under warranty. Call Apple tech support and let them deal w/it.
You have 14 days to return the computer w/no questions asked. Plus you have 90 days of FREE phone tech support on top of your standard 1 year warranty unless you also purchased AppleCare which gives you an additional 2 years of coverage plus FREE phone support.
Strongly suggest that you take FULL advantage of the above before it runs out. Let Apple deal w/the problems. -
I just got the Conduit malware 4 days ago and I ca...
I just got the Conduit malware 4 days ago and I can't imagine I’m the only one. Any ideas why no one has posted regarding this issue since 2013?
On another note, is Norton somehow connected to Bing? I’ve been working with a tech at Norton for three days and they haven't managed to get the Bing out of IE and bring back my original search engine. They did some fancy shuffle to make me think they had. In reality just redirect the Google browser to my original home page and said "look its working”. The question is are they incompetent (doubtful) or have an interest in keeping Bing in IE. I can't imagine what axe Norton has to grind here, unless someone was paying them or threating legal act. Anyway As a result the Skype will not open, why that helps Microsoft I don't see it, since they own Skype. Unless they are trying to drive customers to their (other) offering, like they are doing with Bing? JohnHi, Windboater, and welcome to the Community,
Keep digging ... "Conduit" adds components that once found are easily removable. I got slammed with this when I downloaded an old version of Skype from what turned out to be an untrustworthy website. (Lesson learned: only download Skype from app store or Skype website.) Was a time-consuming endeavor, but I prevailed.
Regards,
Elaine

Just got my ipod touch three days ago. It seems to think I am located in Thailand even though I am in Wyoming. How can I change my location?
For location the iPod uses the location of nearby wifi routers that are in Apple's database. You do not have to be connected to the network/router to use that router's location. Thus, it appears that Apple's database has the incorrect location of nearby routers. Apple continuously updated their database based on info they obtain from iPhones. No one has been able to find a way to inform Apple of a router or correct is location.

Kernel panics are usually hardware.
Hold down 'd' key and it should boot into Apple Hardware Test, or insert your OEM install DVD to do so.
No, we are mere users and mortals and usually you need to do some troubleshooting by trial and error and testing. Schedule an appointment.

MacBook Pro i5 with retina will not recognize WD Passport even though I successfully used it to transfer programs and files from my older MacBook ten days ago. It receives power from the USB, but when using Time Machine I receive the message that there is not an external device connected.
If the modem is also a router, either use the modem in bridge and run pppoe client on the TC.. that is assuming ADSL or similar eg vdsl. If it is cable service.. and the modem is a router, then bridge the TC.. go to internet page and select connect by ethernet and below that set connection sharing to bridge.
Please tell us more about the modem if the above gives you issues. -

I bought a mac 2 days ago and transferred some files on there using migration assist which I did not want to. How do I restore my imac to factory settings so I can start again?
Look in /Users folder. You can go to System Preferences > Users & Groups, open the lock and "-" delete the account it created.
This is a problem whenever you use migration assistant after the initial install. The proper way to run Migration Assistant is in Setup Assistant when you first boot your Mac. I don't know why Apple isn't clearer about this issue. -

Hi I'm thinking of buying Adobe After Effects CC for my MacBook Pro. But I am worried it won't work. Here are my specs 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5, 4 GB Ram, 1333 MHz DDR3,13-inch (1280 x 800) are my displays and I'm up to date with latest software. I need to know if this will work on this Mac and or if there is any other After Effects that will work.
The display would not. However, your model does not have a discrete GPU, and the integrated (Intel 3000) would not meet CS6's requirements (any CS6 software) alone.
However:
Standard VRAM:
384 MB
Maximum VRAM:
512 MB*
Details:
Apple reports that "memory available to Mac OS X may vary depending on graphics needs. Minimum graphics memory usage is 384 MB". *If upgraded to 8 GB of RAM (or more), 512 MB will be reserved for video function.
In other words, you would need to upgrade your RAM to 8 GB. The VRAM (video ram) of the processor can exceed its specifications if you upgrade your memory to 8 GB. In order to run the software, you would have to upgrade your RAM first:
