I am in China and need to buy a MacBook Pro with English as the core language. Where can I find one?

I am in Jilin China and went to the local Apple resale store, but all the MacBook Pros with Retina Display have Chinese as the core language, and the store workers couldn't help me get English.  Where can I buy a BacBook Pro in China that has English as the core language?

Not very bright of them.  Every Mac can be switched among 33 languages, including English, in a few seconds via the system preferences.

And in Chinese

Along with that, when setting up a brand new Mac (or after install an fresh version of the OS), the first thing you have do is: select a language. That choice sets the language for the rest of the setup and the default. Pick English and you're done.
But as Tom mentioned, that can always be changed.

    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/creative-suite-2-activation-end-life.htm l. I think this is the link. However, you will need to use the new S/N if you need to do the activation. The Activation server for AA 7 was taken down. I am not sure this link is complete, but it might give you some idea. However, on WIn7 and newer, AA7 has problems and will only work with some workarounds, and then kind of clunky.

  • I live in the US and want to buy a MacBook Air with norwegian keyboard in the Apple Store. Is that possible?

    I live in the US and want to buy a MacBook Air with norwegian keyboard in the Apple Store. Is that possible?

    In earlier years you can go th an Apple Store, buy a Macbook Pro and ask for a replacement to a other type of keyboard. I do this 2-3 times in the last years for german keyboards. If you done this on the same day you bought the macbook, the replacement happened without charge anything. It was a great service.
    Yesterday i go back to the same store like before and both - the sales representative and the guys an the GeniusBar told me - that this is not offered by Apple anymore. Because the US Apple Online Store do not offer other Keyboards the US-based keyboards and the German Apple Online Store do not deliver to other countries the final conglusion from the Apple Stuff was:
    Flight to germany, but it over their.
    I see here in the Support community a lot of questions about norwegian, german and other kind of keyboards they want to buy in the US. Their is obviously a need for this. And from the logistic standpoint, it should be easy for Apple to offer that in the Online Stores itself.
    For me the conglusaion is: I stay with my old Macbook Pro and hope i need no replacement within the next years. To order it in germany, ship it to a friend, pay taxes twice (in germany and vur customers) plus shipment, make it to expensive (bottonline: 600-800$ more than buy it in the US) make no sense to me.

  • I have replaced my faulty hard drive on my macbook air 1.1 and need to reinstall the original software where can in find this on the apple web site?

    I have replaced my faulty hard drive on my macbook air 1.1 with a new ssd, I need to reinstall the original software,where can I find this on the apple site?

    There is no download for the software.  The factory software that you are looking for is called ilife.  It is all of the software that would have came preinstalled with your mac on your original hard drive when you first bought it.  You will have to get new software on your computer.  This might actually be a great opurtunity to upgrade to Lions.  Search the Lions software in the mac store and it will come up.  Click add to cart and check out.  The price for it is $20.  I defientely recomend Lions, it has alot of new great features.  Then wate for the install disk to come in the mail.  when it come just pop it in and follow the step by step instructions.  If you dont want to upgrade to lions however you can download the ilife package from apple.com for a small price.  Hope this helps.

  • So I'm thinking about buying a Macbook pro with 512 gb harddrive and 8gb of ram. But I don't know whether to get a 2.4 ghz or 2.7 ghz processor? I mainly use my computer for a lot of music, internet, and other teenage things

    2.4ghz is plenty of processing, if it means you'll save money over the 2.7ghz. I'd have suggested 2.7 if you also do heavy video editing/rendering using FCP, etc... but the spec you have is plenty

  • Can I buy a MacBook Pro with a foreign keyboard in the US?

    I will be moving to Sweden soon and was wondering whether or not I am able to buy a MacBook Pro with a Swedish keyboard, in the US?  It is a lot cheaper buying one in the US than in Sweden (I would save a few hundread dollars). The computer I am interested in is the 13 inch MacBook Pro with the Retina display.
    If I am able to do so, do you know how I would order it? I can not find any options for it online...
    Anyways, thanks alot in advance!

    call 1-800-MY-APPLE and ask.  You will most likely have to order it over the phone.

    Perhaps you can copy it using a different computer, from the disk to a USB key.
    However, external DVD drives are cheap and in my view essential.

  • Combining Mover's Discount Coupon and Student Discount Coupon on Macbook Pro with Retina Display

    To whom it may concern,
    I've recently saved up enough to buy a Macbook Pro with Retina Display 13.3" with 8GB Memory ($1235) and I read on a few forums that you could combine the Mover's Coupon and College Student Coupon on the Macbook. However, with that discount, many customers had trouble because the sales associate/manager said it wasn't applicable to apply the Mover's Coupon and neither was it applicable to combine both coupons.
    As a result, I called my local Best Buy in Brooklyn, NY (Bay Parkway, Store #599) in advance to double check if it was possible so that I wouldn't be wasting my time trying to argue with the store manager, etc. The sales associate said generally, I couldn't combine two coupons regardless of what type they were.
    I was wondering if combining the Mover's Coupon and College Student Coupon still applied to the Macbook Pro.  
    If it did, would it be possible for someone to directly contact my local Best Buy store manager or sales associate that would be ringing me up and explain how to do it and that it is possible to combine the two coupons. I also have a $100 Best Buy gift card that I intend to use with my purchase so I was wondering if that was applicable on top of the Best Buy coupons.
    Attached is the link below for the specific Macbook I intend to purchase.
    Thank you for your help.
    Best,

    Hello Wilson,
    MacBook Pros are fantastic machines! I have owned one myself since 2010 and it’s still running smoothly. They can be quite the investment so I can understand why you would be looking to combine coupons and use a Best Buy gift card.  
    Best Buy gift cards are accepted as a form of payment, so you shouldn’t have trouble using a coupon and a gift card together. You can check out more information on forms of payment on our Payment Methods on BestBuy.com.
    I would like to discuss your desire to combine these coupons further so I am sending you a private message. You may check your private messages by signing into the forum then clicking the envelope icon in the top right corner of the page.

    hi just wondering, i live in ireland but i am planning to buy a macbook pro with retina display in america, will applecare purchased in ireland still cover the macbook from america, thank you

    Yes. Apple care is associated with the serial number, and stays with the machine even if you where to sell the machine before the Apple care expires.

  • If i buy my macbook pro with a flash memory will i get instant on like the macbook air?

    If i buy a macbook pro with a flash memory will i get the instant on feature like the macbook air?

    Almost, if you up your memory to 8GB or even 16GB (for around $80) AND use the SSD (solid state drive)((flash memory)) it should be an "instant on" sort of setup.
    A pretty cheap way to go I must say.  Only a couple hundred extra to be such a fast computer.

  • If i buy a macbook pro 2 months before the new operating system comes is released, can i get it for free?

    If i buy a macbook pro 2 months before the new operating system comes is released, can i get it for free?

    Generally once Apple gives the official release date, then Macs have become available for up to date pricing.  As long as just the season has been stated, there is no guarantee that Macs purchased during the season in question will get up to date pricing.  So watch http://www.apple.com/osx/uptodate/ or http://www.apple.com/macosx/uptodate/ the day that the release date is announced.   Past performance is no guarantee of future returns.  Thankfully since 10.7's release Apple's full fledged releases have only been $20 USD, and updates are free to the full fledged release.  I.e. 10.7.1 to 10.7.5 are updates to 10.7.
    10.8.1 to 10.8.4 are updates to 10.8.  It was only with 10.6 and earlier the distribution for each full release was at least $99 and up to date were around $20 going back to 10.2.  10.6 is though available on the Apple Store for only $20.

    Do you have your system backed up to Time Machine? If so, you can open your user Library and copy your Mail folder from Time Machine to your Desktop on your new machine; then copy THAT folder to your new machine's user Library.
    To get to your user Library, open Finder and Go and press the Option key. Library will show up. Click on it to get into your user Library. Now go into Time Machine and you should see your user Library for Time Machine. Restore the Mail folder to your Desktop.

  • How to completely remove mac os and install windows 7 on macbook pro with retina display 15 inch

    how to completely remove mac os and install windows 7 on macbook pro with retina display 15 inch

    There's not much sense in purchasing a Mac to run only Windows on it.  Keep in mind that drivers for Windows are a secondary concern for Apple.  While Windows will typicall run fine, things like power managment are not optimized under Windows (you'll get less time on battery while running Windows).  You will also not be able to install firmware updates.  Firmware updates might be necessary whether you run Windows or OS X as they are updates to the code in your hardware and are not OS-specific.  You must be running OS X in order to install a firmware update.  You can do this even if you boot off of an external drive with OS X installed on it.  At the very least, you should keep just a small partition for OS X on your internal drive.
