I have questions about my MacBook...some body help me

My question is about a replacement they're going to do from Apple but I need to be firm who received viviento and I'm not currently in USA, for which I sent the address of my best friend.
What should I do to communicate that will be she who signed receipt?

Hi Kirsten,
Welcome to the forums (and sorry it isn't in better circumstances for you) ,
I've posted the following in response to your other post about the matter:
+"Your warranty won't cover it, Kirstin. Your household or workplace insurance might (you would have to check the policy).+
+It sounds to me as if you will at the very least need the keyboard replaced (many of the problems you mention sound as if they may be related to key mechanisms sticking or shorting). The cost of this will depend to some extent which model of MBP you have. It will certainly run into some hundreds of dollars. In a worst case scenario, if the logic board also needs replacing, it may be cheaper to purchase a new computer, I'm afraid.+
+Sorry the prognosis isn't more favourable.+

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Mobile device support (i.e., platforms) ?
    Is there file synchronization among multiple devices ?
    Central administrative management console?
    iCloud only works with iOS based mobile devices, it works across multiple iOS devices, aside from turning each feature on and off on each device, there is no other management system.
    How much does the service cost per $/month/system?
    Are there Bandwidth caps and/or data transfer fees?
    Is there a Free trial?
    How about Free storage?
    The service is free and includes 5 GB of storage (you'll need to subscribe for more), as such there is no need for a free trial, data caps are a matter for your service provider, Apple has no restrictions.
    Does the service enable file downloads to local devices?
    Is there Bandwidth throttling?
    Real-time collaborative editing?
    Is there any Third-party application integration like MS Office, etc.?
    Document and data syncing are a feature of iCloud, bandwith is a matter for your service provider, changes made on one device are synced relatively quickly to other devices, there are lots of other developers that have integrated their apps with iCloud, M$ office isn't currently one of them, they don't have an app.
    Is there the ability to Wipe files/folders from user devices?
    Public file share?
    Data compression/ deduplication
    Is there Restore of individual files/folders?
    Anything you delete on one device is deleted on all others, there is no public sharing, iCloud is a personal service,your documents are not compressed, you can only restore documents and data from a back up.
    Does the service offer Stored data encryption?
    How about Data transmission encryption/
    Is there Password protection for linked files?
    Data integ./tampering checks?
    Is the service FIPS 140-2 compliant?
    API for custom apps?
    Your data is encryted online (well not all, some things aren't to enable fast searches), no password protection for documents, your account is password protected, no idea about encryption certification, API's are available for developers.
    Customer support hours?
    Concierge-style customer service?
    Option to host data on-premise?
    This is a free personal service, customer support is online as per other support from Apple.

  • I HAVE A MAC BOOK AND I CAN GET TO WORK THE CD 1 IT DOESN'T READ AND ONLY APPEAR A ICON LIKE A FOLDER WIR ONE QUESTION MARK, CAN SOME BODY HELP?

    I HAVE A MAC LAP TOP MAC BOOK AND  WANT JUST TO REINSTALL THE SOFTWARE I DONT CARE ABOUT MY FILES I HAVE BACK UP BUT WHEN I INSERT THE DISK VERSION 10.5 WHICH COMES WITH MY COMPUTER DOESN'T WANT TO READ I HEARD THA IS TRYING BUT NOTHING,
    CAN SOME BODY HELP ME...

    There is a possibility that the disk drive could be broken, if it just spits it back out that usually means its toast. If your MacBook has a Core 2 Duo processor, you can install Lion (via a thumb drive not disks). Here is a link to the Lion thumb drive.You can also still order them for $19.99 by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE. Also you can borrow an external disk drive and try the Leopard disks that way as well.
    Good Luck!

  • I'm looking to buy a new Macbook Pro, and have questions about the Applecare extended warranty?

    I'm looking to buy a new Macbook Pro, and have questions about the Applecare extended warranty? I want to know if the 3 year extended warranty covers what damage. Like water damage, accidental damage, lost or stolen macbook, manufactory defects, or any other kind of damage, maybe be even cosmetic damage. Can anyone help me?

    If you are talking about features of the MBP itself, as long as you are not looking at  the Retina models, then the memory you can upgrade yourself for a lot less than Apple charges, and that does not affect the warranty as Apple considers memory a user permitted upgrade.  Great sources are Crucial and OWC, both are Mac specialists and have on-line videos on how to do the install.
    If the 15" is what you are looking at, a good upgrade is the 7200 rpm hard drive, gives a little better performance over the standard 5400 rpm drive.
    The Hi Res screen is good if you do a lot of graphics work.
    Comparing the 13" amd 15" you will notice the 15" has a second, discrete graphic processor...helps when you get into heavy duty videos, games, graphics...but keep in mind that kicking in the second processor uses a lot of power and will run the battery down faster.
    If you are looking at the Retina models, then keep in mind there are no post-purchase upgrade options...you have to buy with everything you want at the start.
    Just some thoughts.

  • I have problem with the security question i forgot it some body tell me they will show down of the question forgot the answering but nothing show help me plz thanks

    The reset link will only show if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

  • A lot of questions about my MacBook Air

    I am really new to re-using Apple computers.The last time I used an Apple computer was back in 1987 when the school and my family had Apple IIGS computers. I have been using PC's which reqiure Microsoft. I a lot of have questions (10 questions) about my MacBook Air and I hope you good people can and will help me.
    Product: MacBook Air
    Operating System: Mac OS X Version 10.7.4
    1) I Downloaded MacKeeper because I was fooled. I had a bad feeling just before I Downloaded it and I should have listened to my heart. However, I didn't buy it or fully Install it. It was like a test run and then they wanted me to pay almost $100 for it. Thankfully, I didn't because I read it is Malware. I spoke with an Apple Tech at Apple Care and he helped me get rid of it (or so we think). I don't see it anymore on my computer. I read it can slow down your computer. How can you tell if it's really off of the computer?
    2) When I open "Finder" and I see that there are people Sharing my computer with me. I went into AirDrop and it reads, "Other people can see your Mac as (my name) MacBook Air when their computer is nearby." I bought a HotSpot and while it's turned on and I selected it as my WI-FI connection I thought it would  get rid of these people, protect what I type, me, my items, computer, etc. But it didn't.  
    I didn't know that I have to buy a exteral CD and/or DVD Player in order to connect to the brand new Modem and Router in one by NetGear. I am so used to PCs and the CD/DVD Players being built inside.
    The people at Apple Store told me that there is an internal modem inside, but I don't know how to find it and what to do then.  Should I use a Firewall?, An AntiVirus, AntiMalware, AntiSpyware, etc. Apple Care tech told me I don't need to get an AntiVirus.
    3) Is there a new kind of Wireless Modem and Router that doesn't require a CD-ROM?
    4) When I travel or fly and I am not close to home I was told by Best Buy and Sprint that I had to buy a mobile HotSpot to use the computer (WI-FI) safely. As I typed, I have one. But it's pretty expensive and only gives me 1 hour and 15 minutes per day to Stream. What can I do to use this computer safely Online when I am out of range from a Modem and Router? What do people do when they travel on airplanes?  
    5) This compter won't let me use "Raid." I think you have to have a newer version. I hard about Raid on the radio from Leo (can't recall his last name) who's a Tech expert.
    6) Should I buy a ZipDrive? Apple Store Tech told me that I didn't need a ZipDrive. I just remember the episode of HBO's "Sex and The City" when Carrie looses everything because her copy crashed. Now, of course, I know that's a fictional show, but with PC's and Microsoft I have lost everything when it crashed, frooze up, etc. I know there's iClouds. I heard about Carbonite, but I have read the Pros and Cons about it. Mostly they are Cons about it. I just don't want to do anything wrong and mess up this computer.
    7) Should I buy a new Printer/Copier/Scanner because mine is an HP. It's not new, but it works. I even have a CD-ROM for Macs. What about the new product called, "Neat"?
    8) Is there a special product that I should buy to do Online Banking and/or other important stuff?
    9) I saw and read about iWork in the Apps Store and it sounds cool. I still have alot of friends and colleagues who still use Microsoft. Is iWork good to use? Should I Download it from the Apple Apps Store or can a buy it at Apple? Is there another Word Processing Program that is great and user friendly and will work with Macs and PCs?
    10) Should I Update the OS with OS X Mountian Lion Pro from the Apple Apps Store or buy it at Apple Store?
    In advance, I wish to thank you in this Apple Support Communites for your help.  Have a safe and happy holiday weekend!

    1) Here are instructions for removing MacKeeper. Since it mostly consists of manually looking for folders and specific files, if you follow the instructions you either fail to find what you are told to find (because your AppleCare guide gave you complete instructions which you followed) or you'll find some additional files that need to be replaced.
    2 & 3) I assume you are looking at the sidebar of a Finder window and seeing Shared and computers under it. Those are computers that you can potentionally share. To do so you'd need an account on their computer and a password. They are not sharing your computer.
    AirDrop allows you to create an adhoc network for filesharing and it only functions when you have selected the AirDop item in the SideBar. Actually doing that merely announces to computers in the same network node that your computer is available for a file to be sent to. Even then you have to explicitly allow the file to be downloaded to your computer. Similarly you'd be able to see other computers with AirDrop selected and be able to send them a file - which they'd have to accept.
    The only reason your NetGear Router comes with a CD is to install and run their 'easy' step by step configuration program. It can also be done manually with a browser. Read the manual to find the IP address you must enter to access the router's configuration menu. Apple's WiFi routers don't require a CD to install the software because the configuration software is already on your computer.
    I do have my firewall turned on. AntiVirus software isn't a bad idea - I use Sophos having tested it for a review for our local User Group and I found I liked it better than ClamAVx which is what I'd been using before. Both are free.
    4) I think you were scammed by Sprint and BestBuy. I use hotel, coffee shop, and restaurant WiFi spots and have for years. However, because they can be unsecured, I do not shop online or bank when I'm using them. I also use 1Password and don't reuse passwords so even if a sniffer should grab an account and password that's all it would get - one account.
    5) Raid doesn't really make sense with a MacBook Air - a RAID involves 2 or more disks being used as if they were one.
    6) Zip drive? No. External hard drive - yes. It isn't a question of if a computer's hard drive will malfunction, it is when. OWC has a nice selection of external drives and the Mac has a built in backup system called TimeMachine. Due to the way TimeMachine works, I've found that your TimeMachine drive should be at least twice as large - and preferably 3-4 times as large as the data you are backing up.
    7) if your printer works and it has Mountain Lion drivers, why replace it?
    8) Online banking is done with a browser - Use Safari or FireFox
    9) If trading files with Windows users is important Mac: Office is your best bet. If not, iWork, Mac:Office, or LibreOffice are all good possibilities.
    10) you can only buy Mt Lion via the App Store.

  • I have question about dml mechanism. particularly delete statement

    HI,
    I have question about dml mechanism. particularly delete statement
    I learned that SQL statements deal with each row. For example, SELECT statement insert each record(1 row) which matched with term of WHERE into record pool.
    Also I find that UPDATE, INSERT statement insert each record into memory and if that is commited, I/O is generated with disk.
    if so, Do DELETE statements deal with each row which is matched with terms WHERE statements? ortherwise with rownum?
    I hope that I know the mechanism of DELETE statement?
    If the content above which I mentioned is fault, plz point out.
    Thank you for reading this contents.

    Hi,

    HI,

    I learned that SQL statements deal with each row. I'm not sure what you mean.
    SQL statements deal with sets of rows ; there may be 0, 1, 2, 3 or more rows in the set.
    For example, SELECT statement insert each record(1 row) which matched with term of WHERE into record pool.You must mean an INSERT or MERGE statement that includes a query. A plain old SELECT statement doesn't insert anything, or change any table in any way.
    Also I find that UPDATE, INSERT statement insert each record into memory and if that is commited, I/O is generated with disk.That's right. All DML involves some I/O. The I/O may be buffered, so that the DML statement might finish before any disk I/O is actually performed.
    if so, Do DELETE statements deal with each row which is matched with terms WHERE statements? ortherwise with rownum?
    I hope that I know the mechanism of DELETE statement?Sorry; the last couple of lines you wrote are especially confusing.
    When you have a DELETE statement that includes a WHERE clause, such as
    DELETE  emp
    WHERE   deptno = 20;then the set of rows that will be deleted is the same set of rows for which the condition "deptno = 20" is TRUE. Again, that may be 1 row, but if it is, that's mere coincidence. The number of rows in the set may be 0, or it may be 2 or more.
    If ROWNUM is part of the WHERE clause, then ROWNUM will be considered when Oracle decides which rows to delete; if ROWNUM is not part of the WHERE clause, then ROWNUM will play no part in determining which rows are deleted. Remember, as Damorgan mentioned above, ROWNUM is an arbitrary number. There is no built-in order to the rows in any table.

    Reset, hold both the Home and Power buttons for about 10 seconds until the iPhone begins to start. If still problem, and your decide to Restore your iPhone, try DFU Mode Restore. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power button, after exactly 10 seconds release the Power Button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time.

  • I have question about hooking up an external hdd to a time capsule and still have my printer hooked up as well. Anyone got any tips for me, how to do it and what brand of harddrive that will work best for me 1 or 2 TB

    i have question about hooking up an external hdd to a time capsule and still have my printer hooked up as well. Anyone got any tips for me, how to do it and what brand of harddrive that will work best for me 1 or 2 TB

    You just need a powered hub.. if you already use one then fine.
    Plug in just about any external hard disk will work fine. Format has to be readable by the TC.. ie fat32.. or much better HFS+.. plug it into a Mac to prepare the drive.
    Pick whatever size suits.. nowadays 2TB are most economical.
    WD, Seagate have goobled up all the minor players.. so pick one.
    Whatever suits your budget and asthetics.
    NOTE.. The USB on the TC is fine for printers.. IMHO it is the wrong way to go with USB disks.. use the internal disk of the TC.. USB is less than half the native speed plugged into a Mac.. TC to USB is slow.. far slower than internal drive.. or using external drive as external.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. 
    Regards
