  • How to recover a MacBook pro that was stolen?

    My MacBook was stolen a month ago in Portugal! I have the serial number so was able to complaint to the police, enabled the lock system and location through icloud. Today it was located in Romania, so is there any chance that if it is taken to one of apple's shops to unlock that apple recognize that it was stolen and contact me?

    no.

    I have a Macbook Pro that was slowing down. The HD was nearly full as I do a video work. I removed over 400gb of photos and video and it made no difference. I ran disk inventory x and that says that there is only 60gb on the hard drive but disk utility says there is still 430gb on the HD. How do I remove what DU says is still there.
    Thanks

    You may notice a difference in available space statistics between Disk Utility, Finder, and Get Info inspectors. This is expected and can be safely ignored. The Finder displays the available space on the disk without accounting for the local snapshots, because local snapshots will surrender their disk space if needed.

    How do I flag this computer with you in case someone tries to bring it in for service?
    Thanks, Morris

    EMDAVIS, I just went through this.  Report it stolen through the proper police.  Then have the police call them call Apple with the Police report and request that the Serial number is taged.  The local detective here said it took 3 phone calls. It also helped that I used iCloud to wipe the computer so the person who has it now may need service.  Good luck EMDAVIS.  Sorry for your loss!

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are referring to the first generation Apple TV, then you cannot sync content which is stored on its hard drive back to iTunes.

  • Can i return my macbook pro that i got early september for an imac?

    i was wondering if i can return my macbook pro that i got about 4 months ago and pay the restocking fee for a 24" aluminum imac. can someone answer my question please

    Good Morning,
    I'm afraid you have gone beyond the standard return policy and thus will not be able to return the product for a refund.
    For more information, please visit the [Apple Return Policy|http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID ?nnmm=browse&mco=735D05D9&node=help/returns_refund] webpage.
    Hope this helps! 

  • I need an action that did revoke mistakenly called iCloud clear that I locate iphone iphone before that was stolen

    I need an action that did revoke mistakenly called iCloud clear that I locate iphone iphone before that was stolen

    Complain to the Attorney General about what? There is nothing in your story worth any such complaint. They will tell you the same.
    First you have payment difficulty so credit and the Edge program are not available to you. You have to be credit worthy to get any upgrade, unless you can pay full price for all those new devices.
    Can you?
    You are trying to get new contract plans, but since you are having paying on time and in full issues you will not get extended credit from any carrier.
    What I would do is go and port out to Boost or Virgin Mobile where you pay a reduced cost for each device and get unlimited everything for $40 to $50 a month, it is pre pay so if you don't pay you get cut off.
    Verizon although with the best coverage is also the highest priced.
    Good Luck

  • HT5624 How can I track the MACbook Pro that just used my apple ID to log into iCloud?  (I just got an email stating that someone just used it?)

    Here is the email:
    Your Apple ID ([email protected]) was used to sign in to iCloud on a MacBook Pro 13".  I had a MacBook Pro stolen in January and I'm wondering if someone was using that stolen computer to login??
    Anyway to track the computer trying to log in using my other Apple ID?

    If you activated the Find My iPhone service (in System preferences>icloud), then you can try to track it.  Using another computer's browser, log into icloud.com and look at the Find My iPhone page.  On a device, invoke the Find My iPhone app (get it for free at the itunes app store) and log into the icloud account.  Note:  The Find My iPhone **app** does not turn on the service, you can only do that through Settings>icloud.
    If the mac is listed as "offline", then you can't track it.

  • Is there any way to make a snow leopard partition on an early 2011 MacBook Pro that was upgraded to Lion, without the original boot disk?

    So I have an early 2011 MacBook pro,  I believe it shipped with snow leopard originally, as I purchased and upgraded to Lion fairly early on.  I am trying to make a partition right now and have it run snow leopard so I can use programs that have PowerPC.
    I should note, I replaced both the RAM and the harddrive in my Macbook pro.  I changed from 4 GB of ram (that came shipped) to 8 GB of ram from a 3rd party, that I installed on my own months ago, have registered in the computer and have been working fine for quite some time now.
    Also I should note I replaced my harddrive.  I went from what ever the standard 500 GB harddrive that shipped with 15 inch early 2011 MB pro's.  I now have a 3rd party SSD that's 240GB's that I also installed on my own, (at the same time as the RAM---Black friday items)  The harddrive has been working just fine since then.
    In installing the harddrive I borrowed a friends external harddrive and used a program called carbon copy cloner to get everything over to the SSD.
    Now here is my issue.  I have ordered the Snow Leopard (10.6.3) install disks from apple, I have created a partition on my SSD for snow leopard, but when I try to select the install disc for snow leopard at boot I get three beeps.
    I know this issue has been posted elsewere but it said answered and the answer is no longer available.  I also am unsure if any of the RAM or Harddrive swapping could have been causing the issue.  I have the old harddrive and RAM still, but unfortunatley have no external harddrive anymore or money to afford one.
    Is there any way I can install a partition that runs snow leopard on my early 2011 MB pro with what I have (new SSD, New RAM, Current version Lion running, no external drive, lack of original snow leopard disks [I lost them ] and the general 10.6.3 snow leopard boot disks).
    Let me know If there is anything I can do.  I'm a now broke college student so i'd like to spend as little $$$$ as possible
    *PS I should also note the DVD drive is working fine, it reads the disk, the disk is brand new, it plays DVD's fine and has never had any issues in the years i've used it for similar tasks*
    sorry for the long drawn out post, I just wanted to include as much as possible from what I've seen other people have issues with

    As the last post suggests, call Apple and order a replacement original disc for about $17.  They will ask you the model and serial numbers.
    Your retail version of Snow Leopard OS 10.6.3 will not work on that Mac as it requires a minimum of OS X 10.6.7 to boot and operate.
    Another alternative is to again borrow another Mac to install your retail Snow Leopard into an external HD or partition, upgrade it to 10.6.8 and then clone it back to a partition on your MBP.

  • How do I get support service for my MacBook Pro that was purchased in the U.S. if I'm traveling internationally?

    My MacBook Pro (purchased August 2010) crashed at the beginning of a 2 month trip in India. Whenever I turn it on, I get either a grey screen or the apple logo and then a message telling me to restart my comp (this happens when I try to boot from the disc).  I've done everything short of cracking the case open to reposition the HD, and that's only becuase I can't get my hands on a adequately sized screwdriver.
    Any thoughts?  How do I get my computer services while in India? I'd be okay with shipping, but I can't even get a hold of apple without spending an astronomical amount in cell-phone fees.  Help?

    If this happens when you try to start from the installer DVD, then you have a hardware problem. Getting it repaired in India probably isn't easy to do. You could arrange with Apple to ship back to the US, but you would need to arrange with AppleCare for that.
    You might try Apple's India support numbers: (91) 1800 4250 744 or (91) 80-4140-9000.

    no one can help you find you mac except the local authorities in that area.  Also, if you have 10.7.2 installed and you had the "find my mac" feature activated, you can attempt to track it that way. Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product.

    As we are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple, I've asked the hosts to remove your email addresses and phone numbers from your post -it's not a good idea to post personal info on any public forum (unless you like same emails).
    Unless you had Settings > iCloud > Find My iPad enabled on it then there isn't any way to try and locate it. If you did have it enabled then you could try locating it either via http://www.icloud.com on a computer or Find My iPhone app on another iOS device - but that will only work if it's connected to a network and the device hasn't already been wiped and/or Find My iPad disabled on it.
    If you haven't already done so then report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc., and contact your carrier.
