If I buy a laptop in Canada will it work over here in the UK?

i was wondering if i bought a laptop over in canada would it work over here??

I got my last 3 Laptops (yes, 3 toshibas) from the States and use them in Europe. Everything is working as it should.
The only differences would be the TV out ... that is in Europe Pal, and in Canada NTSC, but there is no need to worry as this can be usually adjusted from inside the BIOS settings. (please have this confirmed through owners)
Also, the Canada DVD drive works in a different Region than our European Region 2, but this can be changed 4 times until it is set permanently.
The powersupply is auto-switching too, allowing you to operate your laptop from 110 Volts - 232 Volts without need to purchase a different model. Only a hardware adaptor (2 Euro max) might be necessary to make it fit inside our plugs.
The only problem that you might face is locating spare parts (mainly the chasis). I have seen some models that have different chasis in Europe and the Foreign. But in case you will need something, you will still have access to proper spare parts as they are widely spread throughout the internet.
Good bye and good buy ;)

    not really. in fact, a European model will be able to connect to a few more wireless channels

  • If I buy iPhone 6 without contract in Canada, will iPhone work in Europe, on Croatian network without unlocking or some other problems? Tnx

    If I buy iPhone 6 without contract in Canada, will iPhone work in Europe, on Croatian network without unlocking or some other problems? Tnx

    A contract-free phone is not the same thing as an unlocked phone.
    If you purchase it through a carrier, it will very likely be locked to that carrier.
    In the US, Apple stores, and only Apple stores, sell unlocked phones. The same may hold true in Canada.
    Also keep in mind that warranty service will only be available in the country where you purchased the phone (Canada) and you will have to either send it to a friend/family member to get it repaired or make the trip yourself. Apple will not accept a shipment from outside the country of purchase.
    Finally, while an iPhone from one country will generally work anywhere in the world, you may find that you do not get 4G speeds/full compatibility with a network outside of the country of purchase.

  • I bought the external DVD player/burner for my Macbook.  I tried using it with my Dell laptop but it will not work.  Is it not configured to work with anything but apple operating systems?

    I bought the external DVD player/burner for my Macbook.  I tried using it with my Dell laptop but it will not work.  Is it not configured to work with anything but apple operating systems?

    If you purchased the Apple USB SuperDrive, it will only work with select Apple devices. It won't work, for example, on my Late 2011 model that has a SuperDrive built-in, but it will work with an Air, Retina model, new 'drive-less' iMacs, etc.
    As far as I know, though, you can only hack the drive to work with some other Apple devices, but not with Windows PCs. Which is a shame as other, less expensive DVD/CD devices will work with just about any machine.
    Sorry,

  • If i buy an iphone in Kuwait will it work in the UK?

    If I buy an iphone from Kuwait will it work in the UK please?

    If I buy from Zain or Viva - I think these are networks in Kuwait - would it still work in the UK pls?
    Yes, it should.
    What is a legitimate source - Apple Store, or authorised Apple resellers?
    There is no Apple Store in Kuwait (not one run by Apple themselves, in any case). Viva and Zain are the only authorized resellers of the iPhone in Kuwait.
    Regards.

  • If I buy an iPad2 in Cambodia will it work in the uk

    If I buy an iPad2 in Cambodia will it work in the uk

    The iPad itself will certainly work. If you are referrring to a 3G connection, then yes, it should also work with any compatible GSM carrier and data plan, unless you buy from an unauthorized source in which case it would be possible, albeit unlikely, to get an iPad from one of the few carriers who lock the iPad to themselves.
    Regards.

    If I set up iTunes Match in Canada will it work in the USA?  Thanks.

    They are specific to each country, so no it won't work - Canadian gift cards can only be used in Canada with Canadian iTunes accounts.

  • My DVR security sofware that I access remotely uses a "dvr .ocx" file....when I try it in Firefox , either the latest non beta (3.6.1.5) or the new beta version (4.0 rc) it will NOT work as it says the plugin is missing... it works in IE 8,but not IE9...

    All the best, Brett :)

    The longer this thread continues, the more ancillary comments you throw in that aren't directly pertinent to your problem with your DVR software not working with Firefox 4.0. Sorry, I don't intend to continue with this discussion.
    I do agree that ''something'' needs to be done better with regards to plugins for Firefox, but I do disagree with you as to whose responsibility that ''something'' is.

  • Mail, iCal Server and iChat server will not work over VPN

    I have an Airport Extreme Base Station at the office running the network. Behind it sits a Mac Mini Snow Leopard server running 10.6.3. The ports necessary for Mail, iCal Server and iChat work fine through that external connection. I can also connect with VPN from my 10.6.3 clients.
    HOWEVER, when I connect with the VPN clients, I am suddenly unable to access the Mail, iCal Server, Wiki server and iChat server. All connections time out. I can ping the server and I can do other things that do NOT work on the public Airport like ssh or VNC. ssh and VNC are closed at the airport extreme.
    So it's pretty odd. When I'm connected via the VPN, all ports that are forwarded to the Snow Leopard server time out over the VPN.
    I've tried various and sundry configurations with the VPN client. This includes trying to send all traffic over the VPN, moving it up in the service order, etc. etc. Nothing fixes it. DNS resolution is working fine, however when I do a wireshark capture of ppp0 traffic, I notice that SSL and TLSv1 handshakes appear to occur on the public IP address instead of the private network IP address... and they're all resets.
    Has anyone gotten this to work successfully? Like I said, all ports that are NOT forwarded through the Airport work fine over the VPN, but will not work when connected to the VPN. It's really bizarre.

    New data: any ports that are normally forwarded on the Airport Extreme to the Mac Mini server will not work when connected to the VPN.
    For instance, if I have imaps/993 forwarded from the Airport Extreme to the Mac Mini, it works fine over the Internet. If I connect to the VPN, I can connect to all OTHER services on the Mac Mini, but Mail, for instance, will not work.

  • If I buy a MacBook Air in America, can I use it over here in the U.K. without any software problems?

    If I buy a MacBook Air in America, can I use it over here in the U.K. without any software problems?

    It is true that they are not region free with DVD's even though they let you switch the region 3 or 4 times and then it locks on the last region you choose forever.
    Software is a different story, I myself own a MacBook Pro from Europe but I install software I buy from the US.
    I have friends that own Macs from the US and they live in Europe and they don't have any problems.
    I have a friend from New Zealand with a MacBook and when he comes over in Europe he has installed European software.
    So you see, I think a software region problem if you ever have any should be extremely rare.
