If I buy a Macbook Pro, can I sync it with my desktop iMac?

If what you mean is whether you can move all your files to the new Mac, SURE -- that is easy.
Daily Local sync-ing seems to have been removed from 10.9 Mavericks, which would come pre-installed on a new Mac.
You can sync through iCloud or a Server you control.
File Sharing between Macs on a network remains available.

Depends if you can transfer the licenses and activate Office or you need a new key but your Mac will come with some and you can redownload if bought off the AppStore on others.
And might note this was not the forum for MBP users.

If i buy a Macbook Pro online in a country with a special keyboard. Will i get the Mac with my country keyboard?

I want to buy it on sale this friday, so a quick answer will make me happy :)

You should - if you're in the UAE, for instance, you should get an Arabic keyboard (you may have to specify when you configure your machine - I don't know, I live in the US).

If I buy a MacBook pro now, what will happen with it once the Lion OS makes it's appearance? Will I need to buy a new one again?

If I buy a MacBook pro now, what will happen with it once the Lion OS makes it's appearance? Will I need to buy a new one again?

Lion will run on most Intel machines. It will not run on the following machines:
MacBook Pro (sold before October 2006)
MacBook (sold before November 2006)
Mac Mini (sold before August 2007)
iMac (sold before September 2006)
It requires an Intel Core 2 Duo (or later CPU). Those machines listed above were all Intel Core Duo machines and with the exception of one of the Mac Minis, an Intel Core Solo. So we're talking 4+ year old machines. I have not tested Lion on a machine with anything less than 2GB of RAM.
Wikipedia has a pretty good public summation of what's known so far and it's quite accurate - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mac_OS_X_Lion
The biggest thing of note so far is that you cannot install/run Rosetta. Which maybe problematic for some users.

Can i buy a macbook pro retina display in US with portuguese keyboard?

Can Apple or someone else tell me if is possible to buy in Apple Retail Store in U.S. a Macbook Pro retina Display with portuguese keyboard?

It's difficult to get one at a shop or Apple Online Store because build-to-order Macs aren't available at them unless they are very popular.
The only option you have is to call Apple (1-800-MY-APPLE) and see if you can order a MacBook Pro with a Portuguese keyboard. In case you can, this will take days because it has to be ordered and delivered to the USAFD

Is there any way to buy a MacBook Pro in the USA, but with a European plug?

I'm going to get a MacBook Pro from the USA, but I live in Belgium, so I wondered if you could get a plug for Belgium straight from the US, or if you needed an adapter.

Apple retail stores will take cash. But, I would say it is very uncommon, in my experience, in their stores. The sales personal are all set up to deal with credit or debit cards remotely (ie. there are no "checkout" lines, it is all done wirelessly), so dealing with cash is not the normal mode of transaction.
Not many shoppers routinely wander around malls with several thousands of dollars in cash in their pockets (even most "cash" only folks would likely use a debit card, not actual cash)! Plus, since many people get special compensation with their credit cards (not talking points and such, but my VISA card gives me double the manufacturers warranty, as well theft and accidental damage insurance coverage for the first 90 days), even those of us who never carry over a balance still prefer to use the credit card and get the perks (I especially like the insurance, as I have to at least get my expensive item home safely before I can use it).

MacBook Pro can't use Silverlight with Chrome, Firefox, or Safari

It's a relatively recent issue, within the last month or two, but I can't stream any videos on Netflix. Initially it was just an issue with Firefox, but now I can't use it at all with Chrome or Safari no matter how many times I install or uninstall the Silverlight plugin. My Macbook Pro will act like it's going to load the movie (black screen with blue dots in a circle) but then times out saying there's an error. I always get error code 2014 on the Netflix screen that says the issue is likely with Silverlight. I am able to successfully stream on my imac.
I've tried everything I can think of (I'm not very tech savvy so I'm SURE I've missed something). I've gone through my application and internet plug-in folders and deleted everything having to do with Silverlight. I've also emptied the trash before trying to redownload it. I've also tried deleting cached information and cookies from all of my browsers and messing with the preferences trying to make it possible to use.
I would really appreciate any help you can give.

I'm wondering whether you have any background software running that might be causing the problem, Sebastien?
Fax software, anything that adds its own devices to the menubar, etc, perhaps? "Content Barrier" and "Speedtools" are pieces of software that I have seen linked to this issue. Virus blockers generally might be worth considering as possible causes.
Can you think of anything that you have installed that might have created third party system extensions ("kexts") that could be interefering with the regular processes?
A clean OS install might really be the best solution, though it is time consuming of course.

Calendar on my MacBook Pro won't sync events with my iOS devices via iCloud.

I have a MacBook Pro 13" (non-retina) running OS X Mountain Lion, and an iPad 3 and iPhone 4S running iOS 6.1.3.
I recently created some events in Calendar on my Mac, and later wanted to edit them on my iPad.
The event didn't show up on my iPad, so I tried my iPhone.
Neither worked out, and I assumed it was my Internet connection.
Later, my iOS devices still wouldn't get the events from my MacBook.
I made sure all my devices were logged into iCloud with the same account and the calendar synchronization was enabled.
Still nothing worked!
How can I get my events to sync?

Be sure that the calendar on the mac is in the "icloud" group and not "on my mac". Calendars "on my mac" do not sync with icloud.

My macbook pro won't sync up with any devices?

I plug in my devices in and receive power to them, but my computer won't recognize or sync them up. I've tried to use isync to find devices and it comes up blank. Both usb ports give power to devices, but I can't sync them up. Does anyone know how to fix this.

Help on installing Lightroom 5 on two computers... I have used it on a PC, but now I have bought a MacBook Pro, can I install it with the same license? If not, can I delete it on the PC and use it on Mac instead??

Hi all,
I just read, that you can't install lightroom 5 on the same license on two different platforms because of different services provided.
Is it possible to delete the PC-version and continue solely with the MacVersion!?
kind regards, and thanks in advance
Andreas

Unless things have changed your Lightroom purchase can be used on two PC's, 2 Macs, or one of each. You just need to download the Mac version and install it on the Mac. You should not have to do anything with the PC installation.
Lightroom - all versions

Can i buy a MacBook/Pro from the US online store from another country?

Hi guys,
is it possible to pay for the US online store for buying a MacBook / Pro and ship it within the states of course??
one of my family members are there and they are not that much into computers, is it possible to buy it from here (Jordan) using a Jordanian Credit Card and put the shipping address in the states??
I didn't know where to post this exactly, so hope i can be answered and hope i can be directed into the right department instead of deleting it
Thank you

Sorry, but the US Apple Store cannot accept credit/debit cards with billing addresses outside of the US nor checks on non-US banks.

I apologize if this is "sticking my nose in where it does not belong", but ...
At least one other poster received a "gift" of an 11 in Macbook Air from a grandmother, but really wanted a 13 in Pro. The question was if the computer could be swapped for the better unit.
I assume the recipient will not be so inapproptiate as to say "wrong computer -- I want a better one!!!", but the recipient may have certain items on their "Wish List".

Can I buy a macbook pro from US?

According to the currency now, it seems that buying a Macbook pro in U.S is cheaper than in Australia. Anyone who know that is allowed to.

While the US price is lower, you need to purchase it in the US to get it (the online stores will only sell to the specific country they are tied to). If you have a friend that can buy one and send it, then you can go that route, though I suspect the postage will make up for the price difference and there's a good chance you might get stuck paying a duty on it.
Alternatively, if you just happen to be in the USA, you can purchase one. You may have to pay duty on it, though. I'm not endorsing it, but I know that some people dress up the computer (put it in a computer bag, customize you applications and desktop, load music, etc.) so that it looks like you left home with it -- to avoid duty (since they won't make you pay duty on your personal effects that you left home with).

If I buy a Macbook Pro, can I sync it with my desktop iMac?
