If I buy a macbook pro today  (July 25) will it have Mountain Lion OS X and be able to factory reboot to Mountain Lion OS X?

Or must I wait until the new shipment of the macs will be available.

We don't know, but it is possible depending on how old the inventory is. If it does not come with Mountain Lion you will be entitled to a free upgrade: Apple - Free OS X Mountain Lion upgrade Program.

    Yes, any Macs purchased after June 11th will be entitled for free upgrade to Mountain Lion. Anything before that date, you will have to pay US$19.99 for the upgrade.

  • If'n i buy a macbook pro in early october will it have lion stock?

    i want to add another macbook pro to the household but want it to come with lion already on it. when will that be possible? if not before my daughter's birthday oct 12, can they put it on at the apple store? thanks.

    Hi i,
    Unless someone knows that they're already being shipped with Lion installed, that isn't something we can predict her. I will say I'd be very surprised if MBPs do not come with Lion installed by 10/12, but I have no knowledge of that. I'd also be very surprised if you walked into an Apple Store, purchased a +/- $1500 computer and they refused to install Lion on it for you. Again, I have no inside knowledge about it. Probably your best bet is to contact the Apple Store you'll be dealing with.

  • If i buy a macbook pro today... Would I get lion OS for free?

    I need to Get a notebook soon...

    In the past. Apple would offer a reduced-cost upgrade to the new OS and send out a special disc that would only serve to upgrade your machine's installed OS, or drop said disc in with a new machine bought in the first couple months after the OS pushed out.  That's exactly what happened when I bought my '07 unit (which I'm now fixin' to sell)
    With the upgrade moving to the cloud, no one is totally sure how it will work out for the "Up to Date" programs until we get there.  iLife and iWork apps are already there in the cloud (via Mac App Store).  Perhaps Apple could issue a voucher code for $10 off the update as a way of saying "thanks", which would be an epic win for all (the modern way of saying that this would be a really nice gesture).
    We still haven't worked out how 10.4/10.5 stragglers (and guys, you know who you are) will get Lion, but it could be via an updated Mac Box Set.  That, presently, is $169 and covers the core of what you would get in a new machine.
    This also opens up the off possibility that a Mac of the future could ship with just the OS and let the customer pull things from the App Store, which would be awesome for folks that don't want to have the iStuff like, say, medium-through-large businesses and open-source nuts, saving $100 per unit.
    Just my thoughts,
    Nate

    I am about to buy a 13" MacBook Pro with 256 GB SSD.  I want a Windows partition set up.  What size should it be, and can I load Win XP Pro or does it need to be Win 7 or 8?

    You can use XP but it has to be in a Virtual Machine and OS X as the host instead of as a dual boot system with XP in its own partition. That is how I run Windows on my Mac, in a Virtual Machine.
    Take a look at VritualBox from Oracle. It's free and works very well.

  • Hey, I want to buy a macbook pro or imac mini, I want to know which is better and why, is their going to be new macbooks ect released in 2-3 months thats better that i should rather wait for? Or buy one now ?

    Please help me i dont know which one to buy, and ive never owned one before but i have used my friends quite alot. Why is macbook's worth buying if you can get many products for the same price with better specs ?What makes it unique that it dominates basically the whole world.

    Hey,
    Thank's 4 the advice , but one of my main problems is I live in South Africa and apple products is x2 as much as what the usa doller is for it. Eg Macbook pro starting price $1199 american dollars and directley converted to South African currency is R9160.30.... but the problem is if i want to buy it in my country it has been marked up alot and a Macbook pro starting price for me will be R13000 for 13 inch and if you directley convert our price into american dollers its $1704.30 american dollars, so thats +600 dollers more.
    So its much more expensive to buy products in my country and thats just the starting price.
    I want mobality but i was also thinking (imac mini) is kinda portable and can plug into any1  T.V u know.
    So like i really do t know what to get and that, because its alot more money to spend than the US dollar.
    So i really want you to put your self in my position you know...
    And what is classified as a good monitor???
    And i want to know why my friends say that the imac mini is pathetic , but i think it losts longer than most windows laptops, what do you think ??
    And can i who lives in south africa buy products directley from apple them selves ??
    Thank's man , hope you can help me out here!
    Hope other people can c this 2

  • If I buy a MacBook Pro on hong kong, will it be in English?

    I'm going to hong kong next week and I thinking about buying a new MacBook pro, but I scared it will be in Chinese. Does anyone knows if it's in English?

    You can get it in English. (HK official languages are Chinese and English.)
    However, check prices first (you can do it on-line)

    as well as exchange rates. You may not like HK prices.

  • Macbook Pro Retina (July 2014) will not register TOUCH events when going through the AIR DEBUG LAUNCHER for MOBILE

    I recently purchased a MACBOOK PRO with a retina screen and have started to transition to it as a primary work computer.
    I have a game that is built on another Macbook Pro (non retina) that works fine in the AIR debug launcher for mobile but when I launch it from the RETINA device, the touch events seem to not register correctly.
    Has anyone else experienced this issue?

    To further clarify, it appears the touch simulator is cutting everything in half, maybe because of the pixel density?

  • I bought a macbook pro today, but it doesn't have the free upgrade to os x mountain lion?

    Initially it showed the upgrade in the app store, but now it's not showing up. I've tried going to the "up to date" apple page but that's not working either. Any other way I can get it?

    If it's a non-Retina MacBook Pro, install this 10.8.2 update > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1581
    If it's a Retina MacBook Pro, install this OS X update instead > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1603

  • I am ready to buy a MacBook Pro today, should I ??

    Apple just anounced the 64 bit chip. Should I wait a few days or weeks?

    I just ordered my custom MBP-17 yesterday afternoon, i had read somewhere about the 64bit processors but deceided to order it anyway (have a student card that runs out this week, so get a decent discount). I specifically asked the salesrep about these and if there was a newer version coming out or were they just 'rumors'. He informed me they were just rumors, but they'll tell you anything (salesreps in general) to make sure you buy there and then.
    I will be mighty ticked if they bring out a new 64bit version next week.

  • Macbook Pro won't boot up - i have tried a few steps and still no luck

    I have MCP late 2011 - running the latest Mountain Lion.  I just had it at the apple store a few weeks ago for a routine checkup.  Everything was fine.
    I was using it last night and it locked up.  I did a hard restart, got the startup chime, then the gear spinning, then shortly after the pointer appears.  It turns to the pinwheel and sits forever.  the white screen dims to a 'dirty white/brown' color and it will just stay like this.
    I restart and enter safe boot.  During the startup - I see the progress bar and it gets about 1/3 complete then the screen changes and the safe boot login page appears.  I am the only user, along with the guest option.  If I select my profile and password the gear will just spin forever and the pinwheel returns again.  Nothing happens.  If I select guest-- it will work. 
    Using guest - I used the disk utility.  I repaired the disk - and it says everything is ok.  I also repaired the disk permissions.  It found a lot of problems with itunes and extensions from that.  It states all have been repaired, however if I restart and then rerun the disk utility: it catches the same permission errors... like it never was repaired.
    I also tried the FSCK  after the command S startup ... it says it all was good but no change.
    So -  is it a problem with my profile?  What am I missing?  Is it the HDD?  Is it the OSX?  I travel extensively and I used my timemachine before I departed.  I keep that at home as a safe copy... but now I am on the other side of the world!!  AGHH! 
    This machine is still covered under applecare... until march.    Help!?
    Thanks -  JC

    Hello Jaycakes
    The next thing to try is to reinstall OS X Mountain Lion, check out the articles below for further troubleshooting.

  • If I buy a MacBook Air in the US will I have to pay customs/duty on it when I bring it home? (Outside of US)

    i probably asking the wrong people but if anyone could help me out I'd be really grateful.

    Yes, unless bribes are considered a culturally acceptable alternative.

  • Every time my MacBook Pro goes to sleep or the screen saver activates, it freezes and I must force a reboot.

    This just started happening randomly a couple months ago.  Now it happens on every sleep or screen saver instance.  I cannot trace it to a specific OSX update.  I have gone as far as a full OSX recovery and restoration of Time Machine backup.  Where can I look to get to the bottom of this?

    Issue resolved with Mavericks update...
