I think that an acceptance letter from any university would entitle you to a university discount.
You may want to check with the Apple site in Australia.

    This could be several things, but let's get the obvious ones out of the way, first:
    1. Judging from your text, there's no problem with anything stuck in the mechanism; it's more an issue of no being to put in a disk. In other words, you're sure that there isn't a disk stuck in your MBP. (That happens a lot for all computers.)
    2. Go to Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility, and repair the disk. This should take under 10 minutes.
    3. Perform the procedure outlined here:

    4. After you're done, leave a message here as to the status of the repair.

  • HT4285 i have been using my mac book pro for almost an year..My  use is pretty safe as i use it only at my home and do not carry it at office... my sues is shall i consider the APPLECARE PLAN....the plan is almost 20% of the laptops cost.

    i have been using my mac book pro for more than 11 months.
    .My  use is pretty safe as i use it only at my home and do not carry it to office...
    my  confusion is that shall i consider the APPLECARE PLAN....the plan is almost 20% of the laptops cost....Will spending so much money be worth it

    Like any other insurance, it's only worth it if you have a problem.  I've purchased it on my "high risk" Macs and not purchased on the others.  So far I've never needed it. 

  • I have had my mac-book pro for almost a year, and have just got OSX Mavericks, and now the sound on my laptop is working in a sporadic way, can I change this at all on system preferences or will I have to get it repaired?

    On my mac-book pro the sound isnt working after I have installed OSX Mavericks, should I take it to be repaired, or can I do something on System Preferences?

    In addition to checking system preferences/sound/output and selecting built in if that does not work, make sure volume is up and mute not checked.
    You can try the following, Take a set of headphones and plug theim in and out several times (there is a micro switch that sometimes gets stuck)
    Go to applications>utilities>Audio MIDI set up, see if you can select built in there, make sure volume is uo mute not checked.
    Try a NVRAM/PRAM reset:
    Power off, power back on holding the following keys   OPTION + COMMAND + P + R
    Continue to hold these keys till you hear the start chime 2 times, then release,reboot

  • Mac Book Pro for school. What do I need?

    Hi, i want to buy a mac book pro for school(grade 10 academic) and for general amusement. I will be doing graphics(got adobe cs5.5) video editing, word processing and surfing the web. I am leaning towards the 17" MBP but for portablility i may get the 15". Since i will be taking it to school i dont know if i should pick the solid state vs. the regular 500GB. My main questions are: What hard drive? What should i put in my bag along with some books and writing utensils? Does anti glare make a big diference? 2.2GHz or 2.3 GHz? What programs are a must have?
    P.S. this is my first mac and i do not mind price so much i just want what makes sence. For example if there is no NEED for a solid state then i will not get it.

    Why bring the discs with me? I agree on the chord but is it worth $80? Definately the Manual!
    You need spare bootable copies for troubleshooting.  It's rare, but what are you going to do if at some point while away from home (where your original discs are) you start having problems?  You will have no DVDs to run AHT or even to run the repair disk option.
    If you accidently delete an "Apple" app.  You need the Install DVD to custom install. 
    The above are just small examples of why you need to carry bootable copies.  The original DVDs should be kept in a safe place at home.
    The System DVDs are machine specific.  Therefore, you cannot borrow someone elses system DVDs to troubleshoot your MBP.
    I purchased an extra Magsafe to keep inside my computer carrying case.  I felt why should I use the "home" one?  I would be SOL if something happened to it while using it away from home.  My MBP is older than yours.  The Magsafe was no where near $80.

  • Hi, i want to buy a mac book pro. I was wondering if the ms office suit that i will buy can be a normal version or a one that has to be compatible with mac?

    Hi, i want to buy a mac book pro. I was wondering if the ms office suit that i will buy can be a normal version or a one that has to be compatible with mac?

    It must be compatible with Mac OS X. You have to install the Mac OS X Microsoft Office version > http://www.microsoft.com/mac
    Also, you can use the PC version, but in this case, you will have to install Windows on a virtual machine or Boot Camp, so it's better to use the OS X version. There are alternatives for Office, like Apple iWork or LibreOffice, if you want to try them before

  • I want to buy a mac book pro to edit video on what computer and software do I get?

    I want to buy a mac book pro to edit video on.  What kind of specifications do I need to make sure Final Cut runs smootlhy. And do I need Final Cut studio or Final Cut X? The software is for beginners?
    Thanks

    Ok great - Im by no means a professional editor I have done a fair bit of video editing for online, presentation and awards videos in my previous jobs, and was advised by a previous trainer to get a mac and final cut pro as working of PCs and with Sony Vegas was time consuming and inefficient. I am buying a whole new set of equipment for my office and hope to get the department all trained up on it in the next year.
    I will be learning to use the software but I will need it to make professional videos in the end so I don't think imovie would be appropriate? Thanks for the advice though - I will be prepared for the learning curve.
    Any other advice on which Mac to get also much appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Buy a Mac Book Pro 15 with keyboard in italian: is it possible?

    Hi to everybody, I wanted to buy a Mac Book Pro 15 here in the US but I need a keyboard in italian: is it possible to obtain? thank you

    Carlo,
    As dahammer1 says, I think that if you'll want to buy new through a web purchase it's not possible, unless you buy on the Italian Apple Store website, which highly likely means you have to have it shipped to an Italian address and have someone ship it to the US at extra costs and a possibility of custom charges.
    I've been in a similar situation. Note that I'm not living in the US but in France and had to buy an MBP with a Dutch keyboard.
    What I did was going to my closest Apple Authorized Reseller here in France and have them make a very custom order and send it to Apple. Delivery time was obviously much longer than when ordering via the web.
    I'm not sure though this is common policy at all Authorized Resellers or Apple Stores, but you might give it a try.

  • While looking at web pages like ebay and i click on a item to look at and then i click back page , the page starts at the top of the page instead of starting back at the item i was looking at. My Mac book pro will go back to the item i was looking at .

    While looking at web pages like ebay. When i click on a item to look at,then click on the previous page or swipe back to the first page the page will start at the top of the page instead of going to the item that i was looking at. My mac book pro will go back to the item that i was looking at but my mac mini goes to the top of the page. Do i have a setting wrong?

  • I WANT TO BUY A MAC BOOK PRO. MUST I WAIT FOR THE ONE WITH RETINA DISPLAY. WILL THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO CD ROAM BE A PROBLEM. CAN YOU USE A EXSTERNAL CD ROAM ON A MAC?

    I WANT TO BUY A MAC BOOK PRO. MUST I WAIT FOR THE ONE WITH RETINA DISPLAY. WILL THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO CD ROAM BE A PROBLEM? CAN YOU USE AN EXSTERNAL CD ROAM WITH A MAC?

    Apple will gladly sell you a color coordinated and texture matching external SuperDrive to go with your Retina'ized MBP for about $80 bucks.
    Note that those models are completely sealed with no serviceable or upgradeable parts inside. So if you decide to bite the bullet, be sure to customize its guts to your heart's content from the get-go as no further change will be possible. This means CPU speed, amount of RAM and size of the solid state drive. Other external options, like the Superdrive, can be added later.

  • Buying a Mac Book Pro

    Good night,
    First of all, I am sorry if this post should not be here (this is the first time that I used the forums)
    This summer, I am traveling to New York, and I would like to buy a Mac Book Pro, and I want western spanish keyboard. I can not stay there for a long time, and I would like to know if in the Fifth Avenue store there is usually stock of Mac Book's Pro with this keyboard. If there is not stock, I would like to know if I could order it by apple online store and ask them to send it to my hotel.
    I would also like to know if I can get the free iPod touch, because I am starting my high education, but I am from Spain.
    Sorry for my English and thank you so much for your answers

    I do not think you can do this. I really doubt they stock the MBP with a Western Spanish keyboard - Apple Stores generally stock only standard configurations. For example, the Boston Apple Store (which is actually the largest Apple Store in North America), does not stock MBPs with the Western Spanish keyboard, or even with the faster processor.
    You cannot order online from the US Apple Online Store unless you have a credit card with a US billing address.

    Woggledog, the OP wants to buy one from in-store stock in NYC, not to order one online.
