How does apple ship the 27 inch imac

Are they shipped in another box or in the retail box?

When they shipped my iMac from the factory in Chine it was in the retail box which was inside a brown shipping box.

How does Apple ship via FedEx if FedEx doesn't support Macs?

I just got off the phone with FedEx and they said that they don't support Macs...
Which is weird since everything I've ever ordered from Apple has come FedEx.
So how does Apple ship our via FedEx? Do they have custom software for label printer support, and if so is that available to Mac users?
I'm guessing there aren't a bunch of PCs in the warehouse... well I hope not.

Many operations are farmed out to consultants, 3rd party vendors, etc.
I believe Ingram Micro does fullfillment/shipping, not Apple corporate directly.

How does Apple ship an OS X upgrade disc?

Hello.
I bought a new 13" MacBook Pro a couple of weeks ago, and therefore I qualify for the Up To Date upgrade to Snow Leopard. This is nice.
I'm just trying to figure out how Apple delivers the OS upgrade disc?
Do they ship it by regular mail or is it UPS as was the case when I got the MacBook? (I'm located in Sweden btw.) I'm trying to figure out if I should leave the office address or my home address on the order form.
Thanks a bunch!

Hi and welcome to Discussions,
to my knowledge Apple always uses UPS (or DHL or the like) since they ship from centralised points, like Ireland for Europe.
Personally I would give the Office adress.

How does Apple produce the iPhone demo videos?

Anyone who knows how Apple produce their iPhone demo videos (iPhone + hands)? Greenscreen or filmed realtime on the phone´s screen? I´m going to produce a demo video (Apple App) so any tips are welcome!

Yes to each technique. Each is used where appropriate or necessary to pull off the illusion of clarity and performance. Those are illusions and simulations designed to sell iPhones and iPads, they do not represent real world conditions or response or display.
So you get to do whatever you want. But for the most part, the screen image is placed into the shot of the device. Affecting a seamless chromakey into the screen reuires careful planning, tests, and superior acquisition tools. You wont' be able to do the same work using DV or a GoPro.
I've seen this question asked many times on forums for effects software like After Effects. The answer usually comes down to this: Are you selling your app or are you selling iPhones? If you're selling the app, figure out how to spend as little time as possible trying to make it look good on the phone. If making it look good on the phone is crucial to your sales effort, hire the necessary equipment and technical talent to do it properly and, if you are a good study, let them teach you how to do it next time.

How does Apple identify the MB Air?

Here is something I can't figure out. I was checking today on the Apple Recycle program where I could turn in my MB Air, first version, and get credit to use in purchase of a newer one. So I go through the steps until the last one when I get a list of the different models of MB Air. I "think" I know which one I have but the confusion is that that they list numbers after each model name and brief specs and this number, which seems the way they identify which one it is, I cannot find on the MB Air itself. That is if I use "About this Mac" and get all the hardware info there, no number like the one that Apple is using for identification shows up in that window. So I am left with the remaining difficult of being unsure which one I have. I would think that if Apple is using some number to identify each model that it would be readily found, wouldn't you? A puzzle. Well, maybe I am just not seeing it but any suggestions welcome.

How does apple know what the fault is with my iphone?

How does apple know what the fault is with my iphone when sending it to them on apple care. My sleep/ wake button seems to be stuck so I sent in for a repair on the website and they sent me a apple care box and said send it back but I Carnt remember if I told them the fault or do they know by the repair ID number? Please help as I'm sending it off in a couple of day.

How does apple want me to create a DVD to play on my DVD player from iMovie? iDVD did not come with my iMac.

I have created several home movies in imovie and am now ready to burn them to DVDs that family members can play on their DVD players. How am I supposed to do this? iDVD did not come with my imac. How does apple want us to do this? Thanks.

Why is there no iDVD on my new Mac? How do I get it, and how do I install it?
Apple insists that the entire world has access to fast broadband (and are prepared to pay for the considerable bandwidth usage) and wants to distribute home movies to friends and relatives via download (iCloud, YouTube, Facebook, whatever) rather than mailing them a DVD. The fact that in reality not all users do, has so far had no effect on this policy. Some purchasers of new iMacs have reported that if you scream and shout loudly enough down the phone to Apple, they may send you a free copy of iDVD. Stating that they would return their brand new Mac unless they received a copy of iDVD worked for some, but that is now said to have been withdrawn by Apple.
Also, you can complain bitterly via Apple’s Feedback link, perhaps suggesting that Apple could have provided a choice between burning DVDs and distributing home movies by other means. You may feel that Apple should not dictate how you destribute family videos or photos to distant relatives and friends, and should not assume that every user is prepared to pay for the excessive bandwidth usage charged by ISPs for huge downloads from the App Store:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
Whilst Macs with a Superdrive continue to be able to burn video DVDs, the software for so doing, iDVD, is no longer included in the iLife bundle that comes with OS 10.7 Lion (which also omitted iWeb) or that comes with OS 10.8 Mountain Lion. And it is no longer included in the iLife 11 from the online Apple Store: http://www.apple.com/ilife/. As there is no satisfactory substitute for iDVD Your only solution is to look on Amazon or eBay and try to get an older version that includes iDVD 7, i.e. iLife version 9 onwards. You should also do this if you plan to buy a new Mac anytime soon, as stocks of iLife that include iDVD will not be available for ever.
However, the vastly more expensive FCPX can burn a DVD without iDVD or DVD Studio Pro involvement, but lack the themes etc of iDVD. Also, of course, there is Roxio Toast, which is the best software for burning anything but again does not offer the flexibility of iDVD.
It is worth noting that the version of iDVD 7 included with iLife 11 only includes themes from iDVD 5-7. If you want all the older themes you should buy iLife 9, which has the same version of iDVD 7 but with all the themes, and none of the iDVD 7 updaters available from Apple Downloads contain them.
Currently the only certain way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
https://discussions.apple.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-21006826-20751 4/Installer001.jpg
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
https://discussions.apple.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-21006826-20748 0/Pacifist001.jpg
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.
But even though you can still buy iLife 9 or 11 that includes iDVD 7 from Amazon, Apple now make it difficult to install:
When you try to install iDVD you may see a notice come up on the screen stating that the 'Authorisation Licence' had expired on 25 March 2012, because Apple have withdrawn the license to it can no longer be used.
In other words Apple are now so adamant that we don’t use iDVD that they have tried to make it impossible to install.
If you get an invalid certificate message just set your Mac's clock to sometime before early 2011 and run the installer. After installing iDVD reset the time back to the correct time on your Mac.
You may be to use able to use the installer even without setting back the date. Just click on the Continue button and it should work as expected, but for some it will not continue unless the date is set back.
Additional comments:
Apple has clearly indicated in the newest iMacs, Mac mini and Retina Display MacBook Pro that it plans to phase out optical disc drives as soon as possible across the board, providing an external USB drive as an option for users who need one but which is not universally compatible with all Macs.
Users increasingly have fewer opportunities to use optical drives, as the bulk of third party software is now available as a digital download either directly from the vendor or through Apple's App Store. but not all. Apple also sees digital distribution as the future of music and movies, as exemplified in Apple TV, which has never included an optical drive.
The company has never supported any new HD optical disc formats on its products, including Microsoft's ill fated HD-DVD or Sony's Blu-ray format, despite initially being involved in the Blu-ray standardization process. Instead, Apple has put its resources behind developing increasingly higher definition audio and video formats that it can distribute electronically through its own iTunes Store.
And if you think Microsoft are any better, their latest Windows 8 operating system will not play DVDs, or burn them, unless customers buy an extra upgrade, the company has announced: http://www.gizmag.com/windows-8-no-dvd-playback/22443/
In other words, computer manufacturers have declared optical media as dead, long before consumers are ready to stop using them, which is fine as long as they offered us a choice, but they won’t even do that. Flexibility and intuitive use of a computer seems to be a thing of the past.
The latest anorexic iMacs do not even include a CD drive (or Firewire)! Proof positive that Apple virtually prohibit the use of optical media - although the newly announced Mac Minis do include a Superdrive.
Yet, they still include iMovie! Heaven alone knows or understands what you are supposed to do with your newly edited masterpiece - except make a low quality version for YouTube?

My Daughter changed her Apple ID, not sure why. Then she changed it back to the original. She has lost $50 on her iTunes. How does she restore the funds?

How did she change her AppleID?
If she simply updated the AppleID (not created a new one with a new email address), log out then log back into iTunes store.

I am experiencing exactly the same issue - iMac, 10.6.8. Thanks for reporting it - I thought I was going nuts. What happens from here? Does Apple watch these postings? Do we just hope that they find the bug themselves? Is there a vehicle for reporting bugs directly to Apple?
Thanks in advance.

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.
