did you get a satisfactory response on your question re oracle 10g on os x snow leopard?  I am curious as I have been 'struggling' with it for a few days now.  To my experience thusfar, the oracle files provided are not up to date with current java versions or os x leopard and require some tweaking.  my own answer to your question is that it does appear that you can install and run oracle 10g on mac os x snow leopard, but it seems to be a little hacky to get through it all.  Some information here, other information there, haven't yet found a single source that has all the play by play and gotcha fixes documented.  I am rsisting nuking my debian install on amd64 just to put fedoracore which does appear to be a supported env for oracle 10 on linux.

  • Planning to buy macbook pro for logic - dual or quad?

    Hi
    I am planning to buy a MBP, my budget is tight, as I also will have to upgrade
    Logic and Native Instruments stuff to run on the new machine.
    If I buy the 15'' 2.8 Ghz dual core, I will upgrade to 8GB right away.
    I guess the 15'' 2.4 Ghz quad core should be faster, but then I might have
    to defer upgrading to 8 GB (but it will done for sure at some point).
    Does Logic take advantage of quad core surplus performance?
    What do you guys suggest?
    Thanks a lot

    I was pondering the same decision, and was "steered" by an Apple salesperson to a Mac Mini with Lion Server instead.
    How could I give up a laptop? Easy: as I travel less and less for business, and this way I get quad-core, i7 performance for under a grand. Add 8GB of RAM, and swap out one of the two 500GB drives for a fast SSD (such as one from OWC), and you have a perfect combo for Logic Studio.
    If I really need a laptop in the future, I'll probably go for an refurb i5 Air, when they drop a little in price.
    Cheers!
    Tony.

  • I would like to install snow leopard instead of lion on latest macbook pro MD318 (oct.2011) Does anyone know if this is possible? If so, will I have to use install-disks of previous model (eg. MC721) or will retail-disks serve?

    Experiencing serious problems with lion, I would like to install snow leopard instead of lion on latest macbook pro MD318 (oct.2011) Does anyone know if this is possible? If so, please tell me how. Will I have to use install-disks of previous model (eg. MC721) ? Or will retail-disks serve?
    Thanks steph

    Snow Leopard is currently running on this MBP 15", late 2011 model, due to my need to run an old version of FileMaker.
    A retail disk with 10.6.3 did not work, I restored my previous Snow Leopard install with Disk Utility.
    However, it is not the shipped software and is not officially supported on this Mac. Therefore, your advice to troubleshoot Lion is the best option.

    Hello,
    Apple offers a Barclay's VISA card that provides 6-12 months at 0% interest on your first purchase from Apple.  You can even sign up for the card & get approved at the same time that you place your order. 
    If your purchase is under $999 USD you get 6 months at 0% interest.  If more than $999 you get 12 months at 0% interest.  As long as you make the minimum payment on time every month you continue at 0% until the promotional period runs out.
    Note: if any payment is late or you don't pay off the balance within the promotional period, you get charged all the interest that accrued from day one; as of today that rate is over 22%, so it is important to make all your payments on time and pay off of the full balance before the end of the promotional period.
    Last year I applied for the card at the same time I ordered my iMac; got approved immediately; and then set up an automatic payment every month with Barclays so I wouldn't risk being late; and then I paid off the remaining balance 30 days before the end of the promotional period.  Everything went smoothly, Barclays' online system worked perfectly; they did not play any billing tricks nor did they ever spam me with junk promotions.  Recently they offered another 12 months at 0% financing, so it's not just a one time offer!
    Your profile doesn't say where you are located, so if you are outside the USA you will need to check the Apple website for your country to see if there is a similar financing offer in your location.

    These are user to user technical assistance forums, and nobody here represents Apple or any store.  In order to find out whether you can buy something at a particular store, you really need to find some way to contact the store directly.

    Watch the Apple Online Store’s refurb section for non-Retina 2012 models. The 2.9 GHz model is a very nice machine and there were some available within the past week. Check daily, because they go fast. I bought one last summer and I love it, but I am not playing games on it. B&H Photo still has some 2012 models, also.

    I don't like the 'non-retina' MacBooks, why downgrade when for £100-£200 more you can get a retina Mac which looks and feels 100x better.
    It's hardly a downgrade to those of us who care about being able to upgrade our Macs ourselves if and when we need or want to do so. For me, having a FW800 port is also a consideration.

  • How good is macbook pro compared to 13" macbook pro retina and is the macbook pro has haswell processor and  will I get further updates if I buy macbook pro without retina

    will I get further updates if I buy macbook pro without retina
    I do not know what you mean by that. Any currently produced Mac is likely to be supported for as long as every other Apple product that has ever been produced. Most Apple products are relegated to "vintage" status approximately six years after which they are discontinued by Apple, meaning that the non-Retina MBP is likely to be supported through 2020.

  • HT201300 i want to buy macbook pro 15 inche ritna display from egypt & i want to know if it was referbushed or not, how can i tell

    As you know there is no apple retail store in egypt
    all stores who sell apple products are regular stores, they claim to be apple authorized retailers but i know for sure they are definitly not
    Because i brought imac from tradeline stores in citystars in egypt a year ago & it was deficted u know techical hardware error from graphics card
    and when i gave them my imac 27 inch back to repair it (a white screen appers suddenly)  they made even worse.
    however i sold very very cheap to some one i know other than those idiots wh call them selves technitians & now i want to buy macbook pro from some one else other tradeline & i want to know if it was referbushed or not by numbers or letters printed on the box.
    so please advise

    Once, Apple refurbs had serial numbers starting with "R" or "RM." That faded away several years ago so I don't think you can tell from the serial number any more. However, the carton is rather plain and says something like "Apple Refurbished Product" on it
    Most of the "mission-critical" Macs at our house are refurbs bought directly from Apple USA. They have all given superb and trouble-free service.

  • I want to buy macbook pro without retina display 13 inch. How much does it cost? Is it available now?

    Hi,
    I want to buy macbook pro without retina display 13 inch model. How much does it cost? And is it available now? I heard that Apple is going to discontinue this model soon. Is it true?
    Kindly let me know.
    Thank you.

    Apple's still selling the 13" (but not 15") non-Retina model... see -> http://store.apple.com/us/buy-mac/macbook-pro?product=MD101LL/A&step=config.
    Good luck,

    <Edited by Host>

    Either take the Mac in for service at an Apple Store or AASP and pay the full service charge that includes the labor. Or purchase an equivalent battery from any good online store and put it in yourself, all for substantially less. Apple won't sell you the part directly, only to authorized service providers.
    Search with your Mac's model number in PowerBookMedic.com or IFixIt.com for the part as well as the how-to.

  • Delivery: Buy Macbook pro on the  Apple Store with French OS & Keyboard

    Hi everyone,
    I am about to switch from PC to MAC, and I would like to buy Macbook Pro 13" 2.4Ghz.
    I am French and I am living in Ireland for 6 months, so I have to buy my Macbook on the Irish Apple website.
    During the ordering procedure, I saw I can order a computer with a AZERTY Keyboard (French), but I'd like to know if it's possible to order the computer with a French Leopard OS, or will it be by default in English and after I can put it in French ?? Please answer if you know, this is the last step before I buy my Mac!
    See you all and many thanks

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Your best bet would be to call Apple on the telephone and ask about this. We are just fellow users, and really can't tell you what Apple would do.
    Good luck!

  • Want to Buy MacBook Pro

    I am interested in buying a MacBook Pro.  I just found out that in the fall of 2014 Apple will be releasing a new operating system for Mac, called Yosemite.  I wanted to know if I purchase a MacBook Pro today will the software be available or is best just to wait and purchase the macBook Pro then.

    The updates for the operating system will be avialable and you can download it for free. You can buy MacBook Pro now and install the new OS later.
