How long as your Macbook been in repair?

I gave mine to a genius on the 25th of august. Its been 15 days since that and it still isn't fixed yet, the status is "On hold-part on order" The applecare people I've talked to said it's waiting on a heatsink and top bezel thing. I was quoted 5-7 bussiness days and its been 11 so far.

Apple sent me a box, I sent it in on a Monday and had it back on Thursday. It seems taking it into an Apple Store takes longer for some reason. Call Customer Relations if you're not happy. That may speed things up.

  • How long did your MacBook Pro take to arrive?

    My MBP is coming direct from Apple but as it was purchased via a reseller I have no tracking.
    Its been over 9 working days already, but the apple site says 2-3 days is typical?
    I'm soooo excited but its quickly turning to disappointment with every afternoon.
    How long did yours take to arrive?

    Hi there,
    When I ordered my custom MBP on June 25, it also said 2-3 days to ship. It shipped the 28th from China and arrived via FedEx on July 3rd. That was with standard shipping. I'm not sure if you used expedited shipping or not, but fyi, it is expedited only after going through customs - i.e. 2 day shipping will mean 2 days after going through customs. Depending on when you ordered, especially if you ordered right before or after Independence Day, it could be a day or two extra to process.
    Good luck, and I hope you enjoy it when it finally arrives.

  • How long has my macbook been asleep?

    I was wondering if there was a graph, or some kind of log kept on the macbook pro that tells me the awake time and sleep time of my computer for the past... however long. I know I can open terminal and type "uptime" and get to see how long it has been since my last shut-down, but I want to know specifically for how long my macbook slept during its last sleep. Is there a way to do this? Thanks for the help!

    Hi,
    You can get from AWR report ... if you have generated , alert log too and mainly v$instance...

  • How long has your app been IN REVIEW?

    I must say I'm disappointed in the turnaround time between my uploading an app update and it being reviewed and posted to the iTunes app store.
    I uploaded a new version of my app 4 days ago, and am still opening iTunes Connect only to see it is still "In Review"
    How long have you guys had to wait to have an app reviewed and posted?
    What is really frustrating is that my game had some misspellings, small stuff that I have fixed in an update, and I am getting hammered in my customer reviews over things that I have fixed already and uploaded 4 days ago!!

    If you search this forum you will find from the large number of similar questions that reviews seem to average about a week though some have seen quicker and some have seen much longer.
    Everyone wants their app updated immediately. This is, of course, understandable. At the same time some people complain about the junk apps that get approved. It can't work both ways. Apple is getting slammed with new apps and updated apps. It takes time to do even a cursory glance at each and every one to ensure it at least meets some minimum standards.
    You can update your app description with some nice comment at the top about your pending new release and what fixes/changes are coming. These updates seem to show up in iTunes in less than a day. That may help a bit.
    Of course the best solution is to test your app better to avoid putting out buggy versions. I know this is hard if you are like me - one person trying to get an app out. I don't do QA for a living for a reason
    I posted a new app two days ago. It's killing me to wait a week for it to appear but it's a fact of life right now. Someone, not living in the Internet age, said that patience is a virtue.

  • Timing how long a frame has been active

    I am trying to time how long a frame as been the active
    frame. Once the frame is displayed, if the user doesnt press a
    button to move to another frame after 6 seconds, the movie should
    jump back to the previous frame it was at. I think the setInterval
    function would be correct to use here to time the 6 seconds, but im
    not sure how to clear the interval after. Here is my logic, (i know
    this isnt correctly coded..)
    If a button was pressed before the 6 seconds has elapsed,
    then it would not jump to frame5, i think.. but im not really sure
    if this will work for what i am tryin to do, and if there is a
    simpler way. thanks for any advice

    onEnterFrame does NOT execute once when the frame is entered
    (despite its name). it executes repeatedly (ie, it starts a loop)
    starting when the frame that contains its code is entered and
    continues until the timeline to which it's attached no longer
    exists or a delete onEnterFrame is executed.
    in addition, you should always precede your setInterval()
    statement with a clearInterval(). especially, when your setInterval
    is attached to a frame. it's almost guaranteed that you'll have a
    mess on your hands if you use the code given by madmac, unless you
    add that clearInterval().

  • HT5873 how long can a macbook pro battery last?

    how long can a macbook pro battery last?

    Depends on your particular model of MBP. It depends on the context, too. Do you mean hours of usage or do you mean life of the battery?

  • How long did your first wireless back up take??

    After doing the initial back up via ethernet, how long did your first wireless back up take?? I can't seem to get past the preparing stage. However I have recently learned that the first time backing up wirelessly, the finder indexes the back up & this can take a while. I'm leaving it a little longer now. It has been preparing for about half an hour now.
    Is this normal?
    How long does this indexing take?
    What are your experiences?
    Thanks.

    So far for me it's been five days. I hooked up Time Capsule Thursday night, and after monitoring the progress for a few hours, I calculated that it should take three days, which I figured would mean that it should finish up by Sunday evening. (My MacBookPro had 103 gigs on it.)
    It would have been nice if the instructions that came with the **** thing said something up front about hooking up via an ethernet cable for the initial backup. If I had seen those instructions before I started this nightmare, I might be done by now. Instead I started the backup wirelessly, which I'm sure accounts for some of the delay and hassle.
    Unfortunately, the backup pace slowed steadily over the course of the weekend. By Saturday night, it had only done about 60 gigabyites, and by Sunday afternoon, it was only up to around 65. At that pace I figured I might be waiting another week before it finished, and since I actually take my computer with me when I leave my house, this would have deprived me of my computer for an unacceptable period. After doing some internet research and learning that using an ethernet cable would speed up the process, I therefore stopped the wireless backup, hooked up a cable, and restarted it at around 4 p.m. on Sunday afternoon.
    The backup then proceeded steadily at a faster (although not exactly zippy) pace. By midnight it had gotten through about 60 gigabytes, and after timing the rate at which it was proceeding by that time, I estimated that it should finish sometime around 8 p.m. tonight (Monday).
    I left the computer along during the day while I ran errands away from home. When I got back around 6:30, it appeared to have finished the initial backup and to be in the process of finishing up an incremental backup. The progress bar said "backing up 12,443 items...51.3 MB of 51.3 MB." Unfortunately, it seems to be stuck there. It's now 8 p.m., and it still says it's working on those 51.3 MB. I don't know how much longer I should wait before deciding that it's frozen.
    I'd like to just set this thing on fire. I bought the Time Capsule because I liked the idea of wireless, automatic backups. It was supposed to make my life easier, not make it a living ****.

  • How can I tell how long a request has been sitting on an execute queue?

    Is it possible to determine (in WL 8.1 and/or 10.3) how long an HTTP request has been sitting on the execute queue before being assigned to a servlet?
    Under heavy load, I'm finding that the caller times out by the time the servlet tries to write the response because the request has been waiting on the execute queue for too long. To prevent doing all the work to process the request, I want to be able to see how long the request has been waiting to determine whether it's worth processing the request.
    Currently I use the getExecuteThreadTotalCount() method in ExecuteQueueRuntimeMBean and assume that if the count is high, the request has probably been waiting for a while, but getting the actual time on the queue would be much better.
    Thanks.

    Further investigation and a bunch of speed tests later, I'm even more puzzled. Between 7 pm and 9pm this evening, download speed has been consistently at 112kb, except for the 1 in 10 occasions where it hits 1.5mb, for 30 or 40 seconds, before dropping back to 112kb.
    Does anyone have any ideas what is going on?
    thanks in advance

  • Is there a way to find out how long my child has been playing with my ipad

    Is there a way to find out how long my child has been playing with my ipad???  He has been getting up before me in the morning and in the evening he is super tired and I'm wondering how early he has been getting up????

    No way to see exactly how long the iPad has been used but you may want to consider using parental controls.

    How long do your photos stay in your camera roll backup?

    There is no separate camera roll backup.  The camera roll is part of your overall iPhone backup, which will remain until your delete it or overwrite it with a new backup.

  • How long does your iphone take to charge?

    How long does your iphone take to charge when at various battery levels remaining?
    When your iphone is at 10% battery remaining, how long does it take to charge?
    When your iphone is at 20% battery remaining, how long does it take to charge?
    When your iphone is at 50% battery remaining, how long does it take to charge?
    (Assuming that you charge the phone when the phone is off using the Apple USB cable or dock through a wall power outlet)

    Usually 1 1/2 Hours tops.
    When your iphone is at 20% battery remaining, how long does it take to charge?
    Around the Same
    When your iphone is at 50% battery remaining, how long does it take to charge?
    Thirty Minutes.
    I think if it is taking you 6 to 7 hours then something is wrong here. Either the battery is flawed, the cable or dock is flawed, or something is wrong with the outlet. It should not take that long.

  • How Long has FCE 4 Been out?

    I am wondering how long FCE HD has been around. More to the point when would we expect to see an update to FCE? I am getting ready to pull the trigger on buying this app but got burnt with Toast 9. Bought it on Friday and version 10 came out the following Monday. I realize no one here has inside info, but based on past history does anyone expect some sort of update in the near term?

    As Tom says, we are not allowed to speculate on future software, without getting angry emails from Apple telling us we have violated the terms of use of the forum. Historically, a new version of FCE has only come out at least several months after the new version of Final Cut Studio. Until another version of FCP is introduced, it is safe to assume that there will not be another version of FCE out there.

  • How long did your contract setup took?

    Not asking about the app store review (plenty of other threads for that) but how long did your non free contract setup took? I emailed them and they took me it could be up to 4 weeks!! What the...

    Mine took two or three weeks. My first app was help up almost a week for the contract to finish setup.

  • How long did your installation take?

    How long did your installation take? I'm just curious because mine went from saying 3 hours and 54 min, down to 54 min and sorta bounced around, its about 3/4 done.

    Total, err, maybe a little over an hour? The counter was way wrong the whole time, so, yeah. Don't be surprised if when it says "About a minute remaining..." you actually wait about 20 more minutes. This seems to be happening to almost everyone. I know for sure it happened to me. The best advice I can give on the Leopard installer is this: It's a very poorly written piece of software, so, be patient, and give it lots of your time and love.

  • How long did your repair take

    Hey all,
    My Powerbook recently went in for a transplant (Trackpad issues) and its been a week now and im getting antsy. Last time it only took 3 days. My question is how long should i expect my repairs to take (i.e whats the longest you've gone without your PB). Also the first time my motherboard was upgraded from 1.5 to 1.67 and now on the repair document, another "1.5GHz MLB" was requested instead of "1.5/1.67 MLB". Does that mean i'l get downgraded, if so that'll be torture. Call me weird but i just wouldn't accept that and that would be the catalyst for my decision to get a macbook and sell the PB. Any thoughts welcomed

    With a pb under warranty and another £50+VAT=£60ish to jump the queue at Cancom (looks like a bribe to me), it took 10 days to replace the logic board. Although I did make sure before leaving it there that the parts were available. Still testing it to see if it works!
