How to pack an imac for shipping

hello
my question is how do I pack an imac for shipping? what precautins should I take?
thanks nadine1104

If you have the original box, great. Even if you do, I'd strongly recommend that you do one of two things:
1. Call a nearby Apple Store and see if they can re-pack the computer so that it can be shipped safely. If they can't then,
2. Bring it to a "pack and ship" store and have them do it.
In either event, when you do the shipping, be sure to insure the computer for what you'd have to pay to replace it. And, ship it by a method that gives you a tracking number so that you can follow it's progress to the destination.
Personally, I would not try to package the computer myself. I'd leave it to the "experts".

Appreciate your help!

Hi Boby,
You need to create custom transaction to achive these results.
you will have selection-screen ,it would be :
Date : Here date would be mandatory - Ranges Option
Customer - Optional field - Ranges
Order # Sales Order (Optional) Ranges
Invoice # - Invoice # (Optional) Ranges
You will get the data based on ur selection-screen criteria ...
First you will have customer order details from diffrent table
VBAK,
VBAP,
LIKP
LIPS
VBRK,
VBRP
KNA1,
VBFA Tables ( See the my sample program )
Output would be :
Customer #   Custome Name    Order #   Delivery #   Invoice #   Netpr, Netquantity ,
Check the condition whether invoice table has VBRK-RFBSK = ''.

How do I pack my Ipod for shipping for repair?

So I got the box today for shipping my Ipod nano back to get it repaired, and in the box was a little sheet that had instructions for me to follow. However, when it got to the part about packing the Ipod, it just said "see the included picture" which was unfortunately not included. Does anyone know what I'm supposed to do or where I can find those directions online? Thanks a bunch!

You would be better posting this in the Lion forum.
https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.7_lion?view=discussi ons
It's possible you email contained a virus, but unlikely. There haven't been any reports of email viruses effecting the mac.
My understanding is the Apple provides security updates for all malware including viruses.
There have been reports of a --
-- Phoney virus checking program
-- flash malware.
ppc -- Power PC. An older computer processor used by Apple. Last Mac shipped with PPC was in 2006.
I've read about two virus checking programs for the mac. One is clamav. The rest are either junk or malware.

How can i create a new usb connection (service) on my iMac for sharing internet from my iPhone5 ( i seem have to deleted it )
i know its not a problem whit my carrier o data plan or sharing preferences on the ipone because when i use it un my laptop it works perfectly through
the usb and even works on the Imac through wifi and bluethood tethering but NOT through usb!!.
the problem is that trying to make it work i deleted the "profile" usb iphone on the network prefereces panel. Now i only have 3 options: ethernet / wifi / bluetooth
but not the usb iPhone i used to have.
And when i try to add a new one i dont get a USB option.
can some one help me please??
this is how it looks (after the bluetooth PAN i used to have USB iPhone option)

The question would be more appropriate in the Mac forums as it is not really related to the iPhone.

HT201209 How to get an itunes gift card code, no need to wait for shipping

Good day to all,
I want to get an itunes gift card just to download whatsapp on my iphone 3gs. I have my credit card but the billing address is in Haiti, unfortunately Haiti is not in your list of countries. How can I get itunes gift card code immediately in order to download that application? No need to wait for shipping, just want to have the code to add it to my apple account.
If you have a better solution, it's welcome.
Thank you in advance for your reply

Sorry, but you can't, if you live in Haiti. As you say yourself, there is no iTunes Store for Haiti and you are not allowed to use the iTunes Store of any other country.
If you live in a country where there is an iTunes Store, check to see if Apple sells physical gift cards in your country and if so purchase and redeem one of those. There is no way to purchase an electronic gift certificate from Apple without a credit card from the country whose iTunes Store you wish to use.
Regards.

I have an external hard drive that was formatted by a PC and has files and directories etc. I want to format it and use it on my IMAC for backup but I can't seem to write to it nor can I delete current content. How do I initialize it for use with the MAC?

I have an external hard drive that was formatted by a PC and has files and directories copied to it etc. I want to use it on my IMAC for backup. I see it on my my IMAC . I can open files etc. But I can't seem to write to it nor can I delete current content. I don't care if I lose current content. How do I initialize it for use with the MAC?

You can't write to it because it's formatted as NTFS which OS X will read but not write to. If you want to continue using the drive with both a PC and OS X you will need to download and install NTFS-3G so you can then write to it from your Mac. You can get NTFS-3G at:
http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/24481/ntfs-3g
If you want to use the drive exclusively with your Mac then move the data off it and reformat it in Disk Utility (Applications - Utilities - Disk Utilities) as Mac OS Extended (Journaled.)

I have used Airport Time Capsule with my iMac for several years. I recently purchased a MacBook Air and when it tried to backup to Time Capsule it couldn't because Time Capsule is full. How can I now use the 3TB Airport Time Capsule to back up both?

I have used Airport Time Capsule with my iMac for a couple years. I recently purchased a MacBook Air and when it tried to backup to Time Capsule it couldn't because Time Capsule is full. How can I now use the 3TB Airport Time Capsule to back up both the iMac and MacBook Air? I don't mind losing earlier backups. I have excluded some items from backing up, but since the Airport Time Capsule is full, I can't even begin to back up the MacBook Air.

On your Mac.......
Open Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click on the Time Capsule icon, then click Edit in the smaller window that appears
Click on the Disks tab at the top of the window
Click Erase Disk
On the next window that appears, select the Quick Erase option, then click Erase
The operation will only take a few minutes.
Now you are ready to start new backups of both Macs. Back up one Mac first, then back up the other. Do not try to back up both Macs as the same time.

How do I connect my drive to iMac for best transfer speeds using an adapter

Hi,
My question is: which port on my "old" LaCie hard drive should I use to connect to my iMac for optimum speed transfer? Should I use an adapter?
I am a pro music producer/songwriter & sound designer. I use large audio files in my AVID DAW Pro Tools 11 application both to read and write constantly.
For this I have dedicated hard drives such as a 6TB Promise Peagasus with Thunderbolt 1. But it's starting to run a little slow due to all the information residing only on this 1 unit.
I want to spread out my audio files on other hard drives as well. The one I MAYBE want to use, is a LaCie hard drive I have had for a couple of years.
Important: I only have 1 Thunderbolt port left to use on my iMac and 1 Ethernet port.
So do I need an adapter and what would be the speed then?
My question is how do I connect it for optimum speed transfer?
It is a LaCie D2 Quadra V2 E hard disk with 32mb cache.
It has:
1 FW 400,
2 FW 800,
1 High-Speed USB 2.0,
1 eSATA 3Gb/s.
I have an iMac 27" Mid 2011, 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7 with 16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 running OS X 10.9.4.
I look forward to your replies.
Kind regards,
Michael

Thanks. Yes it is nice. Sounds interesting with your G force. I think I did put the Raid to 5, but cannot really remember. All I know is that when I did use Raid 5, I agreed to use 1 of the 6TB for some backup or security stuff that it takes care of on it's own. I thought it sounded good and safe when I installed it.
Am unsure how to check it.
I just read about the Raid block size which can be set to higher than my 32k in the Disk Doctor app to work faster with large amounts of continues data transfers. But it means that I should perform a new Raid. Not happy at all about this as I am very careful about my audio files.
Yes, I'll definitely go for the Thunderbolt/FireWire adaptor!

How to allocate disk size for each user in iMac?

Hi folks,
I have iMac (Mac OS X, version 10.7.5) for Family, and each of my family member has account on it.
Now, kids download many large files (several GB size files) and HD is getting full.
So, I'd like to set maximum disk size for each user.
Could you prvide instruction how to configure disk size for each user?
Regards,

I don't know of any way to do that by user.
I used to partition my HD and that sets a hard limit by partition, but by user? I don't think it can be done.

I cannot shu down my iMac (for days) as I get the following message:Photos are being imported to the photo library. Now as far as I know there are no photos being imported and even if there were 5 days is crazy. How can I resolve this please?

Open Activity monitor in Utilities, go to the CPU tab>All Processes, and note any process that would appear to be related to importing photos, such as iPhoto, and use Force Quit. This may only be a temporary fix, as it may start all over again when you reboot. If that happens, we need to do some more investigating.
Also, close all open Applications, then open Terminal in Utilities and copy/paste and hit return, then post the output of this command.
lsof -l +L -R -V | grep /
