I never heard about the Macbook recall for cracked casing along the bottom of the keyboard. Is it too late to get it fixed?

I realise maybe your personal issue was sorted, but it may help others:
I took my wife's 3-year old Macbook into the genius bar yesterday expecting to pay for a new casing, but was told there was still an extended warranty for Macbook plastic case (provided up to 5 years old and no signs of abuse)
They will replace the top case and screen bezel at no cost, which I think is excellent service.

  • I heard about the iPod Nano recall over fire risk, I entered my info online a in said that I was eligible, but since early December I have not heard anything more from. In which time someone I know has sent off theirs and received their replacement nano?

    I heard about the iPod Nano recall over fire risk, I entered my info online and it said that I was eligible, but since early December I have not heard anything more from itunes/apple. In which time someone I know has sent off theirs and received their replacement nano already. Is there an email address I can email to request info? Would be much appreciated! Thank-you.

    use the info you got in the email and check your repair status on apple's website

  • I heard there is a recall for first generation iPods?

    I heard there is a recall for first generation iPods due to the batteries catching fire. Where and how do we return for replacement?

    Yes it every time you put the serial number it says that th iPod is not part of the recall program. I tried 4 days ago and it send me to my mail address to where they have to ship the box although I never completed. It is interesting that the program started in November 11/2011 and after November 11/2013 no one can have the product replaced.

    Hi
    And without info - it's near to impossibly to help. Try my general troubleshooting note:
    Troubleshooting note
    When iMovie doesn't work as intended this can be due to a lot of reasons
    iMovie Pref files got corrupted - trash it/they and iMovie makes new and error free one's
    problem in iMovie Cache folder - trash Cache.mov and Cache.plist
    Creating a new User-Account and log into this
    This forces iMovie to create all pref. and cache files new and error free
    Event or Project got corrupted - try to make a copy and repair
    a Codec is used that doesn't work (even though iMovie and/or iDVD tries to / they fail in the end)
    version miss match of QuickTime Player / iMovie / iDVD
    preferences are wrong - Repair Preferences
    other hard disk problem - Repair Hard Disk (Disk Util tool - but start Mac from ext HD or DVD)
    External hard disks - MUST BE - Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted to work with Video
    ( UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - works for most other things - but not for Video )
    USB-flash-memories - usually do not work
    Net-work connected hard disks - usually do not work (most often not fast enough and WRONGLY FORMATTES as DOS etc)
    iPhoto Library got problems - let iPhoto select another one or repair it. Re-build this first then try to re-start iMovie. When iMovie starts-up it first look trough this iPhoto library and if faulty it all Halt’s.
    This You do by
    First -  close iPhoto
    Secondly - on start up of iPhoto - Keep {cmd and alt-keys down}
    Thirdly - now select all five options presented
    THEN - WAIT a long long time (>20 hours are not strange)
    free space on Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk to low (<1Gb) - I never go under 25Gb free space for SD-Video (4-5 times more for HD)
    external devices interferes - turn off Mac - disconnect all of them and - Start up again and re-try
    GarageBand fix - start GB - play a few notes - Close it again and now try iMovie
    Screen must be set to million-colors
    Third-party plug-ins doesn't work OK
    Run "Cache Out X", clear out all caches and restarts the Mac
    Let Your Mac be turned on during one night. At about midnight there is a set of maintenance programs that runs and tidying up. This might help
    Turn off Your Mac - and disconnect Mains - for about 20-30 minutes - at least this resets the FireWire port.
    In QuickTime - DivX, 3ivx codec, Flip4Mac, Perian etc - might be problematic - temporarily move them out and re-try
    (I deleted the file "3ivxVideoCodec.component" located in Mac HD/Library/Quicktime and this resolved my issue.)
    buenrodri wrote
    I solved the problem by removing the file: 3ivxVideoCodec.component. after that, up-dated iMovie runs ok.
    Last resort: Trash all of iMovie and re-install it

  • Dropped ice cream on macbook. now the keyboard has become sticky. can i get it cleaned from the inside from applre store or or somewhere else?

    dropped ice cream on macbook. now the keyboard has become sticky. can i get it cleaned from the inside from applre store or or somewhere else?

    If the ice cream as only affected the keyboard and not run onto other components they will perhaps suggest a new keyboard, I would be surprised if the could economically clean it up. If it as gone on the logic board then that is another problem.

  • There is a problem with the phone app. When I want to call somebody the phone screen come too late. This will cause a problem if I call the wrong number

    There is a problem with the phone app. When I want to call somebody the phone screen come too late. This will cause a problem if I call the wrong number.  Apple please please please fix it as soon as possible and also check why the phone is always restart. I prefer to let us use the iOS 7 until you finished from the IOS 8 because Ios 8 still under construction  there is a tones problems in the system.  And this Will cause undirect problem for the iPhone 6

  • Just got a razr v9, and just heard about the iphone

    I just signed with AT&T 2 months ago and got a RAZR V9, but at literally just found out about the 3g iphone ten min ago. I was wondering if anyone knew if i could sign again my 2 year contract to get an 3g iphone (i dont care if i would have to pay full price or activation fees) or would i have to wait another ten months till i can get my upgrade. =\
    Thanks for the help!

    When you get the iPhone your current contract will be replaced with a new 2 year agreement
    That's certainly true, and for owners of existing iPhones that's really all that matters because the original device was not subsidized by AT&T. However, for other cellphones where in effect AT&T discounted the purchase cost and recovered that discount via the monthly service plans, it isn't as simple as saying that anyone can just get an iPhone and in effect terminate their existing plans. In the case of the OP here, that would mean AT&T would be many months short of recovering their handset subsidy for the Moto v9. That's why the carriers all have 'upgrade eligibility' where (depending on the individual rules of the carrier) you can trade up to a new phone after a certain amount of existing contract time. I don't know whether with AT&T that's after 12 months, 18 or 24 (or some other figure) but it very likely is more than in this specific case.
    For the OP, the answer is that no, it is very unlikely to be possible to upgrade to the iPhone just yet, but the easiest way to find out for sure and determine when, it to contact AT&T and ask, or to go to your account online (https://www.wireless.att.com:443/cell-phone-service/welcome/ and click on the 'My Account' link in the top right) and after logging in, you should be able to navigate to a screen via the 'upgrade' link and see if it says you are upgrade eligible or not.

  • I am having bugs and would like user input about the keyboard

    i would like some input from other users and if you are having an trouble typing on the keyboard.
    freezes or anything else. resets or bugs.
    <Edited by Host>

    ok it just did it again so it is definitely not emoji.
    i am trying to pay attention to exactly what happens and when it does what key i am pushing.
    i just happened twice and the first time was on the letter "o" and the second time on the letter "i". i have tried to fat finger the return and send and back buttons to see if that had something to do with it and nothing. if you fat finger send well it sends the text lol. i even intentionally touched in the texting space right above the letter i and o too see if i am touching the text space and causing it. it does nothing. it seems to happen when i am typing really fast. very annoying... this never happened on my 3g or any of my 4 3GS phones...
    i guess i will do a full restore tonight and see if that ends the problem. i will not put emoji back on for a while to be sure it is not that program.
    if anyone else has experienced this then hit me up on here and let me know. i am not sure about this new phone but on my last one the keyboard would start to freeze up and pretty much stop typing if i went for to many days without turning the phone off and restarting it. restart seems to fix it.
    edit ~ ya its doing it bad now... did it on letter "y" this time.... seems to happen on the top row of keys. i just restored this phone from previous phones backup so i will wipe it and do a full install. hopefully that fixes it. maybe the OS got corrupted somehow.

  • My new 13' retina mac book always fails about the keyboard! Is something wrong with the hardware?

    I have bought the newest 13' retina mac book. But the keyboard failed 3 times the first day!! I was really upset about that. Some discussions on the website show chrome may be the problem. But after I unstall the chrome, the problem still exists. And it has failed about 6 times till now.
    What should I do?
    Thanks

    You should return it for a full refund until Apple fixes this issue. It could be a week or a month before apple has a fix.

  • We are considering the Apple Tv.  Can you tell me about the things we need in order to get started?

    Can anyone tell me about the wifi needed for Appletv?

    that's your download speed and it should be fine for the Apple TV, providing you are actually getting that.
    The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this at www.speedtest.net.
    1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.

  • Questions about the keyboard

    Hi all,
    I have set up a Hungarian keyboard in Settings > Keyboard > International keyboard, but I still get the default English keyboard when I write something. What have I done wrong?
    Another question, most of the time the keyboard switches between horizontal/vertical position as I tilt the iPod, but this does not seem to work when I want to type in a search term or a review at the app store. Any idea if there's a way to fix this? Does this depend on the app I'm using or on the device?

    Usually when you have multiple languages programmed into your keyboard, there is a small globe that will appear at the bottom of your keyboard near the space board. You can press this to toggle back and forth between the languages that you have set up on your iPod. As for the app store keyboard, to my knowledge there is no way to make it tilt horizontally like other applications. Maybe someone else will have an answer on that.
