How many revisions have the white macbook had?

Just wanted to know, I have had 2 white macbooks in 4 years.
Seems all of them have faulty cases, go to an applestore and look at all the white macbook's and you will notice all of them have faulty top-cases.
Just bought my second and after 2 returns, I still cant get a 100% clean macbook, how is that or why is that?lol
1st. Bad top case separation and faulty isight camera.
2nd. Couldn't burn a DL DVD and had slight top case issues and crashed all the time, genius said needs a DVD drive and new ram too.
3rd. Seems to be ok, but it's still under a day old, so who know for sure yet.
Should I feel like an *** for taking back computer that are not even 85% working out of the box?
Thanks for your time!!

There are 7 revisions of the white MacBook. It does seem like most of them have the issue with the topcase, and many people believe the way Apple dealt with this problem is by introducing first the unibody MacBook and now the smaller MacBook Pro.
I think you've had some bad luck with the machines you've received. My MacBook is about 15 months old and I had the topcase replaced after I had the computer for 11 months. Haven't had any issues for 4 months now!

About how many years would the integrated macbook pro w/retina batteries last before they required replacement service?

About how many years would the integrated macbook pro w/retina batteries last before they required replacement service?

It is entirely dependent upon how the batteries are used ( with a little bit of luck). There is no specific time period that any one can provide.
Here you will find some detailed information on Apple batteries and their care:

HT1349 I had a problem an my IT shop had to delete all my apps on my iPhone 4. How do I have the apps I had restored to the iPhone?

How can I restore the apps I had on my iPhone after they were deleted? Some of them were free and others were paid for apps.

if you go in the app store from your device, under updates you should see a purchased tab. There you can redownload any app you've ever downloaded free or purchased. You wont be charged again since you already bought them/downloaded them. Just select the cloud icon next to the app.

How many pins have the ANSIC MANTIS and MITE each?

I am using the PCI-MXI-2 and VXI-MXI-2.The core of the two modules is the ANSIC which is developed by NI.So I plan to learn how to use these two ANSICs.

Hello laidesheng,
Detailed knowledge of the MANTIS and MITE ASICs is not required in order to use NI's MXI-2 products, as you can use the NI-VXI driver for your programming needs.
If you are looking for resources to develop your own MXI and VXI based products, then some good starting points are:
National Instruments KnowledgeBase: What is the PCI-MXI-2 Driver Developer Kit?
Also, you can find more information on the VXI specifications at the VXI Consortium webpage (http://www.vxi.org/)

How many others have iPod nano 6th generation with on/off buttons broken?

I've been reading on here just how many others have the same problem as I do. My Nano is a few months outside the warranty and the on/off button doesn't work anymore. It works if in a docking station but what use is that? The button gave me a few problems inside the 12 month warranty but it was intermittent - I just thought I hadn't pressed the button right! Apple must surely do something about this design flaw - there are countless people complaining about the same thing! I just tried to log a 'support call' - to discover I must pay £25 before someone will even answer the phone? I will definitely think twice before buying another Apple product - this is the second iPod with which I have had 'design' flaws. The first was a worldwide defective replacement due to battery problems - they at least had the decency to replace those. Absolutely rubbish customer care.

Take a lesson from this: even if you have a device where the problem is interrmitent take it in to the Genius Bar anyway. Had you done this, and even if it hadn't acted up while you were there it would be on record that you brought it in prior to the warranty expiring for the problem. This applies to anything you buy with a warranty.
That said, neither of the 6th Generation models I have (and had), nor any of the about 10 I gave as gifts, have had the problem. If I were you I would call AppleCare, immediately tell them you want to be transferred to Customer Service, and calmly lay out to them your situation in a calm manner and see what they can do for you.
The replaceement program for the 1st Generation Nano was due to a Sony battery issue and did not involve all models, only those with a certain range of battery serial numbers. It was also a safety hazard.

How many channels have digital input?

Hi, I want to know how many channels have the digital input of the intel mac mini. I have an digital input with six channels and I would like record in different tracks in garageband or other program. It's possible?
Thanks and excuse me for my english.
Mac Mini (Intel Core Solo) Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
I don't use GarageBand much, but I did a couple of searches. If you search the GarageBand forum, it is possible to import/record more than one or two tracks at a time. In fact, people have recorded six tracks with a USB/MIDI interface. HOWEVER, there is more to consider than just the ability of the software to do this. The processor and the hard drive will have to keep up. From what I found there, it seems the processor and hard drive of the Mac mini will not be able to keep up with six tracks. Apple uses some laptop components, like hard drives, to keep the Mac mini small. One sacrifice of smaller components is lower performance. If you're going to work on projects like that, the folks in the GarageBand forum might recommend an iMac. Your topic might be better suited for that forum, since digital optical audio for the Mac mini is brand new, there might not be many people here with much experience.

That is the one I have and it has only one fan. I have had it apart. Here is a picture I took of it inside:

This is one of the simplest, cleanest laptops I have seen inside since the very first Mac laptops like the PB-145, PB-180.

I know many have this issue but i can't find a solution to the problem. i get message saying insuffisiant disk space in the volume iPhoto library and i have plenty of space available. i have the new macbook pro with retina display.

I know many have this issue but i can't find a solution to the problem. i get message saying insuffisiant disk space in the volume iPhoto library and i have plenty of space available. i have the new macbook pro with retina display. i have never seen this message before and i have 2 other macbooks and have had many other also. i am assuming this is a problem with the new macbook retina. does anyone know the exact fix to this issue? i have seen many sugestions to try to fix this issue but none have solved the issue for anyone that i can find in the Apple Support Community. thank for looking into this in advance.
******A true apple fan********

Actually your suggestions are the ones that i have tried. i have seen that you have tried to help others with this issue and the only one that i could find that said they found the problem said that it was an ilife update issue and it fixed it and i have no available updates. i know it has to do with something in photo stream because it happens when i create a new library and it is loading the photos but i get the message before i reach the maximum 1000 photos. so i've tried updating, new library(first backing up photos and then deleting them from iPhoto), reinstalling OSX many times, running disc utilities. I called Apple the first day i had this issue and i was the first person to call them for support with the retina display and i actually had it escalated to a senior advisor and we thought we fixed the problem but we did not. i am pretty fluent in dealing with troubleshooting these type of issues and this is the first time i'm reaching out to the community. i figured now that the retina has been out some time now that there would be an obvious answer to this issue. thanks for the quick reply.

I have a white Macbook 2009 on OSX Lion. It came with the OSX Snow Leopard CD, I erased the HDD and am trying to install the OSX from disc but am getting "cannot install OSX from disc" message. What can I do?

I have a white Macbook 2009 on OSX Lion. It came with the OSX Snow Leopard CD, I erased the HDD and am trying to install the OSX from disc but am getting "cannot install OSX from disc" message. What can I do?
I got the macbook from a friend a few years ago and it already had OSX Lion installed. Whenever it boots from the Snow Leopard disc it says it cannot install from disc. Is there anythingI can do or should I take it to an Apple store to get them to boot OSX Lion for me?

Insert your Snow Leopard disc and restart, press and hold the C key as soon as you hearthe startup chime, hold C until you see the Apple Logo. When your computer starts up you'll be at the first install screen, choose your language and click the arrow to go to the next screen. This screen has a menu bar, from the Utilities menu select Disk Utility, select your hard drive, this is the one with the manufacturers name or numbers, click the partition tab and then delete any existing partitions by selecting them and clicking the minus. In the drop down box select one partition and click apply. Name your hard drive and click erase. When it's done quit DU and go back to the installer, install Snow Leopard. When the installer is done and the computer is back up and running run Software Update to get to 10.6.8

I have 2 white macbooks to erase them, HOW please

I have 2 white macbooks. lets call them M1 and M2
so I have M1 and disk for it and have M2 and NO disk for it.
I took disk1 and put it in M2 to erase it, restart - installer, I chose machintosh main harddrive and erased it, then I tried to reinstall the OSX and it gives me an error(MAC OS X cannot be installed on this computer) WHY? plus I cannot understand how the fck I get the disk out of this computer now. I am trying upper right button eject and it won't eject. I did try command + E and no luck either.
So my question is, how to take out the CD and how to install any OS on this macbook so I can sell it. and then I need to do the same thing with the second one too.
and there also option to start from network and it just restarts and thats it, not asking any question and doing nothing
PLEASE HELP! first time mac user =(

Because M2 must have a different version of OS X that the M1 disk installs. Typically, that would be interpreted to mean the OS X on the M1 disk is an earlier version than required by M2.
Five ways to eject a stuck CD or DVD from the optical drive
Ejecting the stuck disc can usually be done in one of the following ways:
1. Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
      left mouse button until the disc ejects.
2. Press the Eject button on your keyboard.
3. Click on the Eject button in the menubar.
4. Press COMMAND-E.
5. If none of the above work try this: Open the Terminal application in
      your Utilities folder. At the prompt enter or paste the following:
        /usr/bin/drutil eject
If this fails then try this:
Boot the computer into Single-user Mode. At the prompt enter the same command as used above. To restart the computer enter "reboot" at the prompt without quotes.

How can I have the same environment on two macs on is a macbook pro and the other a Mac mini

How can I have the same environment on two macs on is a macbook pro and the other a Mac mini ?

Forget trying to use iCloud for this - it won't do what you want. iCloud syncs certain data like contacts and events, but it doesn't sync "environments" on computers.

Your steps so far are OK but you may want to try:
1 Trash your user library Caches folder (House Icon with short name in Finder window (hard drive window)GOTO:House icon > Library folder > caches folder
2 Trash the com.apple.Safari.plist file in User library > preferences folder > Safari.plist as well as removing the library Safari folder its self.
3 you can selectivly re-install Safari 2.0 from your OS Tiger Install disk 1, (see Knowledge base article 301229 for how to just select the Safari Application) without doing a complete system Archive and Install.
4. Create a new Test user account on the system and test how Safari responds in the Test user, see if its a user related issue and not system issue.
5. Still no Safari response? have to do an Archive and install (not preserving user and network settings)article 107120
PS. Issue may be related to actual internet connection connectivity, power cycle cable modem and router or airport if using one as well as the computer(keep unplugged for 3-5 min) and plug the cable modem in and then the router/airport then power on the computer. Do the Airport Admin utiliy (applications, utilities on HD_1)update.
- do a hard reset of airport knowledge base article 108044(Express base) and 107451 (Extreme base)
- Check with internet provider for connection issues "cannot find server" ect.

I just updated my iTunes and I do not like the newer version.....can I go back to the earlier version?? This new version does not have the iTunes DJ nor does is show at the bottom as in the earlier version how many songs and the size of my library.

To do this in iMovie 11. use the SHARE menu. Share your project using the Share menu and choose Export Using QuickTime.
In the Dialog box that comes up, choose Sound to AIFF, or one of the other sound options. This will create a file that you can drag into iTubes.
