HT2397 How can I check what region my Macbook pro has been set at.

How can I check what region my Macbook pro has been set at?

It will have been set for the region in which it was purchased.

Once you have set the region in DVD Player five times it cannot be changed. However see tis also:

Instead, use VLC to view videos from different regions:

  • How can I check to see if my software has been registered?

    After a recent hardware replacement I am unable to find my Aperture 2 download. I never used it anyway so i'm not concerned but would like to be able to pass it on if it can be, is this possible? How can I check to see if I even registered it? I have the original packaging and all contents including Serial numbers, support ID, and four software coupons for updates. I am a bit technophobe, sorry!
    So,
    1. How can I check to see if it was registered correctly?
    2. Can someone else use the software?
    Hope someone can help.

    You don't need to check registration. In the Apple world registering software really doesn't have much of a purpose.
    If the software was bought on DVD and you have the serial number you are free to give it or sell it to anyone you wish.  Just keep in mind that Aperture 2 is very old and while it (sort of) works on the newer OS's it really isn;t a good solution for anyone serious about using Aperture. 
    It would be OK for someone with older hardware that is unable to upgrade past Snow Leopard but for anyone with newer hardware it would be a mistake to use.

  • How can I find out if my MacBook Pro has a virus?

    well my son has been using my laptop, and I get on google's browser, and I had pop ups pop up while using it... any idea how or what I can do.... Apparently I cannot ask apple cuz my support has expired... It hasn't even been a full year. Whack!

  • How can I identify what OS my Macbook pro is running?

    Can't get this computer to tell me what the heck I'm running.

    As stated, you are on Snow Leopard, you can upgrade to Lion (10.7.xx) if your intention is to use iCloud on your phone, you can also use iCloud without upgrading to Lion but it will (a) be a more complex setup procedure and (b) more expensive as you will have to purchase additional software if intending to use contacts and calendars as well as Mail.
    If you do intend on upgrading to Lion please note the minimum requirements (Core 2 Duo processor and 2G of Ram) the real world requirement (4G of Ram) and you should verify that your software will continue to run after Lion (Office 2004 does not work but 2008 and 2011 do) any PPC program that you have will not work so check first.
    Finally

    Just in case.

  • How can i determine what year my macbook pro is from?

    i want to see if upgrading to mountain lion for the Airplar Mirroring feature will work with my Mackbook Pro.  I believe it is a Core 2 Duo so I know it is not very new but I purchased it off ebay so i am not entirely sure the build year.

    Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..."  Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).

  • How can I check what version of Java Web Start is installed on the client ?

    hi,
    Can anyone tell me how can I check what version of java web start is installed on the client and display a message if the client has not the good version ?
    I mean:
    I'd like all people running my application use java 5 and if someone using java 1.4 try to run the application get a nice screen telling him to download the latest version of Java Web Start.
    Is this possible ?
    Thanks in advance.

    Of course, I put this on my jnlp file,
    <resources>
        <j2se version="1.5+"/>
        <jar href="..... "/>
    </resources> But even with that, it doesn't display a nice message but a kind of exception instead.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks Allan for quick response.  I am trying to access my work emails from home but I can only see OWA light and not premium.  Apparently you need version 3.1 of Safari or higher to get premium and I am on 6.0.2 but still can only get the light version

  • How can i check what I've purchased on itunes

    How can I check what has been purchased on my itunes account?

    You can view the purchase history on your account via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes, though I'm not sure if that shows auto-renewing subscriptions (I haven't got any so I can't check).

    Apple (and no one else) can not assist (with serial number or iCloud) in finding a lost or stolen iPad.
    Report to police along with serial number. Change all your passwords.

  • How can I play music on my macbook pro (OSX Lion) through a Pioneer receiver. I've connected them with a mini display port to HDMI cable with audio support bought at the Apple Store, but there's no sound coming through. thanks

    How can I play music on my macbook pro (OSX Lion) through a Pioneer receiver? I've connected them with a mini display port to HDMI cable with audio support bought at the Apple Store, but there's no sound coming through. There are 4 HDMI-in ports on the receiver - BD, DVD, DVR/BDR and audio. In my system preferences for sound, the receiver doesn't show up as an output option. Can anyone please advise. (ps, this is my first time posting a question, so I hope I can find your answers!) thanks, JP downunder

    For sound, try the audio output port and connecting to the RCA  audio input ports on your Pioneer receiver.  Use something like this:
