I purchased a Macbook Air 11" in January 2011. It has one key on the keyboard which sticks making an irritating clicking sound that I would like to get fixed. I took it into my local iStore but they were not at all encouraging, saying they doubt that Apple warranty will cover something like this, and also that the whole keyboard would have to be replaced as they don't do individual key repairs.
This is very unreasonable to me. Firstly, the keyboard does work (is not actually broken) although the intermittent clicking sound of a single key is very irritating to me and I expect more from an Apple product than a flawed keyboard.
Any thoughts, tips and insight on this greatly appreciated.

Just wanted to conclude by saying that I did go to an Apple store and after supplying proof of purchase and verifying the warranty etc, I had my MacBook checked out by one of the technicians who (after finding that my machine was immaculate bar the sticky keyboard of course) they replaced the entire keyboard within a week.
I was so happy with the helpful and prompt service and am now so happy with my new silent keyboard!
Also wanted to add that the young guy who told me at the iStore that he doubted Apple would support this and guessed Apple likely say it was due to user damage was being a tool, and he was obviously assuming  that I had done something wrong to break my keyboard.
This was my first Mac purchase and I was delighted to find that the support is genuine and not just a rumor... I have since gone on to purchase an iPad2 will probably buy the iMac too once my trusty PC needs replacing. I was never a PC hater and got on well with windows, and was actually reluctant to make the change - but so far so good :)
Thanks for all the help!

  • Lots of extensions and plugins were not compatible with firefox 6. Is this the same with firefox 7???

    I have always updated firefox until version 6 which I uninstalled and now I have version 4. Version 6 was not compatible with several extensions such as adobe flashplayer, some java.... too many. Version 7 will have the same problems? I will not update my version if those problems continue.
    Thank you

    Plugins (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) like the Adobe Flash player and the Java plugin are not affected by updating and should still be working.
    Extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) like the Java Console extension have a minimum and maximum version and may get disabled.<br />
    Extensions are provided by third-party developers and it may take some time to have them updated or the creator may decide to stop the support for the new Firefox version and abandon the extension like happened with the Google Toolbar.

  • I have been importing pictures and today i succesfully imported more, they are in my iphoto library but when i try to load them for my ebay account they are not there.  it says they must be in the correct format, help!!

    please help me find these pictures!!

    Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

    Hi, My name is Bheki Yende
    I'm experiencing a problem with an app I've just purchased from iTunes, I have tried every piece of advice from the "iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store" and still nothing is working. I would like to get my refund on this pls.
    This is an inconvenience, I don't understand why I have to contact the developer for a faulty product in your store.
    I've paid iTunes to get this, so iTunes must fix this problem for me or give my money back.
    Thanks

    You will need to contact iTunes support here, regarding this issue. They will usually respond within 24 hours.

  • I recently purchased a MacBook Air and was told by Apple that Keynote and Pages were compatible with MS Applications.. I have since tried to open a Powerpoint Presentation but it comes up with an error message and is not right. Help!

    I recently purchased a MacBook Air and was told by Apple that Keynote and Pages were compatible with MS Applications.. I have since tried to open a Powerpoint Presentation but it comes up with an error message and is not right. Help!

    If there are fonts, transitions, builds, video or audio in the PowerPoint file that are not compatible with Keynote, it will either prevent the presentation opening or Keynote will substitute the settings causing playback changes.
    I use Open Office to play and open any PowerPoint files sent to me, they play exactly as in PowerPoint.

  • I purchased a macbook air from someone on craigslist, and when i try to download iPhoto, it tells me that these apps were already designated to another apple id.

    I purchased a macbook air from someone on craigslist, and when i try to download iPhoto, it tells me that these apps were already designated to another apple id. any way to reset the app store from thinking it's still alligned with him? Lion was reset already, but this isn't. If i download on my mac mini, will i then be able to retrieve the download on my air?

    Hi...
    On the MBAir drag the iPhoto app to the Trash, empty the Trash.
    Then try purchasing and downloading iPhoto.
    You can re download iPhoto on all your authorized Macs. To authorize the MBAir, launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Store > Authorize This Mac. You will be prompted for your Apple ID and password.
    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

  • I downloaded hundreds of CDs to iTunes on my old computer and synced them to both my iPad and classic ipod.  We purchased a MacBook air and I noticed the previously downloaded CDs were not in my library.  How can I find them?

    I Downloaded hundreds of CDs to iTunes on a previous laptop and synced them with my iPad and classic ipod.  We recently purchased a MacBook Air, and I started downloading more CDs to iTunes.  When I went to sync my iPod, it removed all my old music and only included the music that I had just downloaded.  When I went to my iTunes library, the old music was missing.  The old music is still showing up on my iPad.  How do I get it back into the library, or do I have to download everything again onto the MacBook air?

    You mean on the old computer, the music is missing?
    Or on the new computer the old music that you transferred from old computer, is now missing?
    Did you transfer the iTunes library from the old computer to the new computer?

    how can i purchase a macbook air in Nigeria? apple has no shop in the entire country and independent dealers charge ridiculously sometimes more than double the prices of mac products without guarantee of getting it with required specifications. its sad cos Nigeria has a very large apple market plus phones and most recently ipads especially. its been frustrating trying to get a macbook, even have to wait for when someone will travel out of the country, then you send the person(thats if you have the money at that time). Please somebody help inform apple maybe they can do something about this, its really disappointing.

  • Hi,new to macs and just purchased a macbook Air,was wondering if anyone uses Microsoft Office on their macs and if it works exactly the same as on a windows based computer.

    Hi all, i am new to Macs and have just purchased a Macbook Air,the only problem i have is there is no Microsoft Office installed,can anyone tell me if office for macs works exactly the same as the windows based version.
    Is there any problems i should look out for ?
    Thanks Paul.

    The Windows and Mac versions of Office are not exactly the same but few people will notice the differences between Word, Excel and PowerPoint unless they are macro gurus. Outlook is different and the Mac version doesn't include Access or Publisher.
