I purchased a MACBOOK PRO oneweek before apple announced the new editions
I purchased a MACBOOK PRO just oneweek before apple announced the new editions to the product. I paid full price for a product that became out of date the week after the purchase and feel very strongly that the use of the Apple online store should protect me from such poor information. If you are planning a major upgrade to a product momentarily, PLEASE inform those buying online so they can delay for a few days for the better system.
I don’t know what options I have but would like to return this macbook for the current system.
Thanks
What absolute rubbish.
They we're just updated 4 months ago.
Where & when did this "Announcement" by Apple take place?
......exactly.

When I mirror my macbook pro to my apple tv the only thing that shows up is one video that's on my desktop. How can I watch something that's online on my laptop, on my apple tv?
Are you using mirroring or using airplay within iTunes? If you are truly mirroring then you can view anything that is displayed on your computer through Apple Tv

I have been editing a document on my MacBook Pro and iPad, which has the newer versions of Pages. Now, I cannot open on My MacBook. It says I need a newer version of OS. However, I'm not showing a newer version being availabe!!! Can anyone help???
That is Pages for iPad v2.0, which Pages '09 v4.3 can't read.
You need to either stick with the older version of Pages on the iPad or get Pages 5 for the Mac which is only available if you are running OSX 10.9 Mavericks.
Unfortunately that is not the end of your woes because Apple has made iCloud convert the files to Pages 5 now, and Pages 5 has over 90 features deleted on top of doing a shocking job of converting older Pages files.

My MacBook Pro 2.33GHz cannot see the New Airport Extreme
Just bought the new Airport Extreme(Wireless N). Power it up, cannot see the new wireless network under the Airport signal icon. The Machine have no problem using my older Netgear wireless router(G) and the new Linksys Wire router(N). Just connot see the new Apple Airport Extreme.
My the other two iMac(G5 and Intel) 20" can see all three wireless network and connet to them without any problem.
My only question is has Apple implement any "regional code" on the hardware. My MacBook Pro is from US and the new Airport Extreme was bought in New Zealand.
Any suggestion? BTW a clean install of the System didn't help. Found out after 2-3 hours of installation of System and all my Application back.To use the Airport Utility you must select your network under that Airport icon but you can't. So what to try? Of course you may need to reset your router. If still not visually seen under Airport then go to system preferences/network/status and choose Airport. Look for the preferred drop down menu. If network is seeen then select it and hit apply. Then select under Airport icon then use the Airport Utility. If not seen in preferred then type in your network exact name or use the + button. The above will work you just need to keep trying.

Take it back to your nearest Apple retail store or Premium re-seller and ask them to check it out on the spot and replace it if necessary. It carries a twelve month guarantee.

Graphic card problem maybe? Since when I have changed the hard drive to my macbook pro and I installed all the new softwares, my mac is very slow and the screen gives crazy pictures,could maybe be the graphic card, does anybody have experienced this?
after a restart it works for a time, but always slow. I went to the Applestore this afternoon and the made a check and said it would be the logicboard and they would have to change it for CHF 600 and it would be ready in 10 - 15 days

If I download FCP to my old macbook, and then upgrade to a macbook pro, can I transfer it the new machine even if I keep both running?

I purchased the Aperture progam last year and downloaded to desk top Mac. I now have a mac book pro and want to transfer the program. Is it possible and How do I do it?
What is your Mac OS X version? And your Aperture Version?
Did you buy from the App Store? When you downloaded Aperture from the App Store, you only need to sign into the App Store with the Apple ID you used to buy Aperture and to download it to your Mac Book Pro from the "Purchased" tab at the App Store. Your licence covers the installation on all your Macs for private purposes.
If you bought a licence key from the Apple Store, not the App Store, copy the installer you downloaded to your Mac Book Pro and run it there. Then unlock Aperture with your licence key.

I downloaded the new Yosemite operating system on my MacBook Pro last night and this morning my straighter does not want to open. When I click on the icon to open it gives me an air message sending me to download a legacy format of Java generation SE and when I do you download and install it, even after refreshing the. MacBook several times I still don't get any positive results as far as having the software open. Does somebody know why and what I can do so that I can run my existing programs from Adobe with my new Apple Yosemite operating system. I am drowning here
The easiest way is to go to the Apple site and find the Java for OSX 2014-001 and install it. There have been some reports of blank pages returned so you may need to try several browsers.

i tried transferring my iphoto library from my old macbook onto my new macbook pro (via external hard drive), but when i open the new iphoto, it seems to have transferred ALL images ever used on my old macbook. so i tried to just delete all those images so i could try a different approach to transferring, but the new iphoto won't let me do anything and every time i try to delete anything it crashes (since the image amount is so high). please help!!
See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1229?viewlocale=en_US - I doubt that it will solve your problem, though. You may want to post on the iPhoto forum - that's where all of the iPhoto experts hang out.
Good luck,

My MacBook Pro won't stop announcing the time in Japanese.
It was funny at first but now I want it to stop.
Hey TravisBickle,
Thanks for the question. Let’s check your Date & Time preferences, and disable the “Announce the time” option:
OS X Mavericks: Set date and time options
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14090
1. Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Date & Time.
2. Do any of the following:
- Click Date & Time, then choose to set date and time automatically or manually.
- Click Time Zone, then select your city.
- Click Clock, then make sure that “Show date and time in menu bar” is selected.
If you want to hear the time announced, select “Announce the time,” then choose from the pop-up menu how frequently you want the time announced. If you like, customize the voice.
Thanks,

can somebody help me as I need this software for uni and as a student cannot afford to purchase a new one !
You should have invested in another Windows machine if your intention was to continue to use CS5.5. Platform swaps are only supported for the most recent release which is currently CS6. You can confirm this by reviewing the policy thru the following link:

I have been using my husband's apple id in my old PC (ID A). When I purchased a MacBook Pro, I created my own Apple ID (ID B) and started using my laptop and updating the S/W with this ID.
Because I wanted to have access to my old purchases, I changed my Apple ID's e-mail to another e-mail that my husband uses (ID B->ID C).
Then I changed my husband's original Apple ID's e-mail address to my own e-mail address (ID A->ID B).
Now I can't update any s/w through the Apple Store and I get the message that "Sign in to **********@hotmail.com to update applications for that account.". The e-mail address is ID C. How can I associate my laptop in the AppStore with ID B which is the one that have all my purchased applications and contains my own e-mail address?
I would appreciate your reply.
DimitraYou are trying to find a loophole to circumvent a basic rule that prohibits the transfer of purchased content from one Apple ID to another.
Content tied to an Apple ID are bound to that Apple ID forever. You can not merge or trade accounts. Well, not (officially) anyway... -
hello.
I recently purchased a macbook pro, and is, and learn some things. and I have apple tv, and the question is can I send a movie from macbook and surf the Internet simultaneously without interrupting the movie?Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You can't do that in AirPlay Mirroring. AirPlay Mirroring can only mirror your MacBook's display, so you can't do one thing in your Mac's display and another in the TV.
This is a feature that will arrive in Mavericks. Read > http://www.apple.com/osx/preview -
