Imac core i7 no longer in retail stores?

Hello,
I live in paris, and I'm not being able to buy the new core i7 imac.
they say it's no longer being sold because of the issues the imac is having.
Does anyone know more about this subject?
When will they be back in retail?
thank you

Right now even the US Apple Store online will tell you that there is a delay in shipping the i7 orders. But they are not aware why. The woman I spoke with surmised that it was a backlog of orders because of high demand. She had no information regarding a halt in production for issues with the displays.
So there is a delay. But the folks at the US Apple Store online are not aware of what is the actual cause.

  • Can you get a customized iMac from one of the retail stores?

    I wanted to know if it was possible to get a customized iMac from one of the Apple retail stores or Apple affiliated retail stores ( www.yescomputers.com for example )?
    The reason I am asking is because the ONLY problem I have with Apple is their shipping. They seem to always use FedEx when shipping to me and FedEx, SOMEHOW, is extremely terrible at shipping products to my address. UPS is fine but FedEx just can not figure it out.
    If it is not possible I think the base model 27-inch: 2.66GHz might be okay. I would just like to know either way.

    As far as I'm aware, Apple do not sell customised/configure-to-order Macs in their Apple Retail Stores.
    If you want to configure your Mac, you have to order it online from the Store.Apple.com website.

  • How long does screen replacement take in Apple Retail store? UK

    Hi,
    How long does screen replacement take while performed in Apple Retail store after making an appointment with "Genius"? My Iphone 6 screen recently cracked. I know it's a paid repair.
    Is it done with hours or do i have to wait for several days?

    Thanks for answer, anyone else had the "pleasure" of doing screen replacement in store? I'm looking to replace it in London.

  • IMac Intel Core Duo no longer connects automatically to the internet

    Since the OS 10.4.8 update my iMac will not connect automatically to the internet. It does show that it is hooked to my "preferred" network which is an Airport network but it will not connect to the internet. There are listed solutions but none of them work on my machine and there are others with the same problem. My daughter's iMac Core 2 Duo works just fine as well as my G4 iBook. I've removed all the listed networks from my list and added back the one I want, doesn't work. I made sure that Airport is at the top of the networks to try to hook to, no go. I'm starting this new post because the old one is marked "solved" which it clearly is not. Thanks in advance for any new ideas (actually I'm hoping Apple realizes this is still an issue).

    ive been having problems with my inet. heres what will sometimes work but sometimes not, i wish i could offer a more solid workaround but i think it must come from the experts at apple in the form of a patch or similar software remedy.
    when your inet acts up try this: unplug the power from your modem(i got an actiontec dsl with the lil antenna on back gt701-wg) i leave mine off for 1 minute minimum but that maybe overkill. i turn off my airport then shut down my apple 24". let it stay of a minute too to be on the safe side. i power my modem up and power the computer up. let the lights stop flashing on the modem plug in an ethernet cable from modem to comp and open safari. you may or may not get connected but wait until it either connects or gives you the cannot connect to inet. close safari unplug the ethernet cable. open your airport then wait till you see the black rainbows bars appear in the lil icon. open safari now and it should work. be warned this does not always work consistantly and it might open pages very slowly however it may give you download speeds of up to 700+kbps depending on the site and file size. i just did this to mine 20 minutes ago and it has been working perfectly again(knock on wood) opens pages fast and 5 bars on the rainbow scale without dropping off still. im not saying this is an answer but i hope it helps until a true fix is available. please dont be upset if it sometimes doesnt work because it happens to me like that too. i wish you the luck i had on mine today. happy early tday

  • Retail store invoice

    Does anyone know if a Apple retail store could provide a copy of a receipt for an iMac I bought in 2009? It was stolen out of my home and I cannot find the receipt for the insurance claim.

    call the store and ask.  I am not sure how long they keep sales records.  I would imagine 7 years for tax/audit purposes.  Perhaps a credit card/bank statement may be a substitute unless you paid cash.

    Call the store & ask the sales staff to send you one if you are no longer in Poland.  If you are still there, what is stopping you from visiting the store? 

  • My complaint about our retail store.

    A copy of my complaint. I am still angry.
    E-mail sent 08-21-2010
    Dear Verizon Wireless,
    I believe that you should always treat a customer with respect. I dealt with both your customer service representatives over the phone and your local retail store yesterday 8-20-2010. I am disgusted with how I was treated at your retail store in my city, Mount Pleasant, Texas. I was treated as if I was an annoyance for your sales associate, and I didn’t appreciate it. I have a contract with your company and have for years now. My bill is paid in full on or before it is due. I have been a loyal customer and have never been disrespectful to any of your employees. That being said I feel there was absolutely no reason I should have been treated with such disregard. Let me explain my day yesterday so that you can better understand my frustration.  I purchased the LG Ally last month. I was interested in the Droid or the Palm, but when I could not afford to purchase the Droid a sales representative sold me the Ally stating that it was as close as I could get without getting the Droid. So I did spend 150.00 dollars buying that phone in your retail store. On the day that I paid my last bill approximately 7-14 days after purchasing the Ally I went into the store to pay the bill and ask a question about the phone freezing every time I sent a text.  I was actually lucky enough to catch the female that sold me the phone. I asked her about the problem and she stated to me that “we have had issues with that phone freezing, and until you get a software update it cannot be fixed”.  She also said that Verizon was working on the issue that I should wait. She never stated to me that I was within my 30 days of return and could have switched phones.  She was not eager at all at assist with the issue and basically said I was stuck with it for 2 years. This is after she made a commission off me and took an hour to tell me how wonderful this phone was just a few weeks earlier. Right then I was upset and left the store that way believing that there was nothing that I could do. After a few more days of trying to text on the phone I finally became fed up with it and decided that I should call customer service for better answers. What they stated to me, after I was very adamant about how I was treated in the store, was that they would extend my 30 day grace period and I could exchange the phone. I then asked your customer service representative what phone would do what mine would and was told only the Droid. I absolutely could not spend another 100.00 dollars to upgrade again. Then I was told that even if I did spend the 100.00 dollars that they would still charge me for the Ally till it was received back. Now I understand that it was a temporary charge, but what that says to me is that you believe that I would have kept both.  This is ridiculous of you to assume when I have such a good payment history as well as how I have been treated from your end at this point. I was also told that the freezing is not a known issue with the phone and that they had no idea why the store representative would have told me that. At this point I am frustrated and confused about whether or not I should even ask for a new Ally or if it will do any good, because I don’t know if this is an issue all the phones are having or not. The phone line representative tells me no and the store is telling me yes.  So I go back to the store again,  and I ask to speak to a manager. After a sales clerk sits there and plays with my phone and tries to get it to freeze, he acts like I made it all up…. Why would I even bother? At this point if there wasn’t an issue I would have just said forget it, but my phone was not working correctly and I deserve one that does. I paid 150.00 dollars for one that does send a text message without freezing and then restarting every single time, right? Apparently I was very wrong to assume that. Your wireless consultant Jesse Summerlin approaches me and tells me again that the freezing is a known issue. He then tells me that if customer service is willing to give me the Droid for the difference then I should take that. He stated to me that if I tried to make that switch in the store then he could not give me credit for the Ally at all and that I would pay full price for the Droid. So knowing that I cannot afford to do that I ask him tom just give me a new Ally. I was hoping that I could walk out of the store with a phone that works. He states to me that he cannot do that, that he doesn’t have the Ally. I walk out of you store, wondering if I am ever going to have a phone that works right. I am at the end of my rope and have no idea what I should do. I am being told at the store that the Ally has problems and that getting it replaced is worthless. Yet when I call in they tell me the exact opposite.  So I go all the way home to Daingerfield, Texas. Daingerfield is about 20-25 minutes from Mount Pleasant, Texas. The Mount Pleasant store is your closest retail store to my residence. When I arrive home, for some reason I try the customer service line one more time. This time I reach a female that actually treats me decently. She transfers me to a male named Daniel. After Daniel hears my long and painful day of dealing with Verizon, he takes pity on me and helps. He tells me that since Verizon did extend my 30 days I can have the phone replaced. He tells me that I can have it mailed but that it would be Monday before it shipped and Wednesday before I received the phone. He actually took the time to find a way to have the phone replaced right then. Unfortunately, to do that I would have to drive all the way back to Mount Pleasant with a 15 month child in tow for a second time to do so. Wait a minute, your manager has just told me that I cannot do that because he does not have the phone in stock? After your customer service representative Daniel calls the store, we find out that Jesse Summerlin flat out lied to me. He had sent me all the way home without a working phone, and he didn’t have to. The phone was in stock in your retail store.  Now I am livid that he had the nerve to lie to me, to my face and send me away for absolutely no reason.  It was disrespectful and inappropriate of him to treat a paying customer that way. I am shocked that your company lets consultants decide what a customer can and cannot do on a whim. Is it Verizons policy to lie to a customer and then have to eventually settle the matter later? Is Verizon so arrogant that they let their employees treat people in this manner? This incident almost cost you our business altogether.  Here is what I would like to happen from this point on. I will be making a special trip at the request of your customer service line to speak with the store manager here in Mount Pleasant, Texas about these events. I expect that her better make this right after all that I have been through. I had to drive all the way back to Mount Pleasant after your employee lied to me and I expect that he fixes that. Then I am going to send this e-mail to your complaint department and also print copies of the e-mail and request to see you regional manager. One way or the other I expect that someone at Verizon makes sure that the next person that walks into Verizon Wireless in Mount Pleasant has a better experience.
    Thank you for your time.

    They hire fat computer nerds that were picked on in high school for years and this is their payback.  Dump Verizon... none of the others are this way to the customer.  Their sales are going down for this very reason and there are now a lot of better options to choose from.

  • Printer recommendations for iMAc Core Duo

    Greetings! I need a recommendation from anyone who is successfully using a multi function printer with an iMac Core Duo. I am returning an EPSON CX5800f because the scanning driver does not work. The printer works great but the scanner does not. Any success stories? Thanks Billy D

    Hello, again! I am back. I returned the EPSON today and I am looking at an HP OfficeJet 7310 for printing, faxing, and scannng on my iMac Core Duo running OS 10.4.6. Any one with good or bad experiences with the 7310? I received an email back from HP saying that the 7310 would work with Intel Macs but I see no such indication on their web site driver download page. Plus HP has not said that the scanning driver for the 7310 would work with the iMac Core Duo. Any comments? Thanks!

  • External Hard Drive and iMac Core Duo

    I purchased a new iMac Core Duo and also have a iMac G4.
    I transferred my data from the old computer to the Core Duo with no problems. I have a Maxtor One Touch II external hard drive on the old mac. Everything transferred well including the external hard drive.... everything worked well until yesterday. Something happened, I don't know what. The Core Duo no longer recognizes my external drive, and I can't reload it. I tried to migrate all of my files from the old mac to the new, But that doesn't work anymore either. Does anyone have any suggestions? I have an awful lot of data that I really would like to have again on the new Core Duo.

    I think my new iMac just fried my external Lacie d2. I kept my iphoto library on the d2 and was working in iphoto and suddenly photos started disappearing. When I rebooted, the drive was fried. Disk Utility couldn't repair it.

  • What is the best spec 15-inch MacBook Pro at the Apple Retail Store?

    Does the Apple Retail Store sell any 15-inch MacBook Pros with 8 GB of RAM or a 7,200-RPM drive?
    Do they just sell the most basic models?
    What have you seen recently?

    The amount of RAM is upgradable in-store (although you may have to wait an hour while they do it). The hard drive, processor, and display are not.
    I agree with Fortuny, it varies among stores. But usually the best spec is what you see on the MacBook Pro page at store.apple.com. At this moment, that is:
    15-inch: 2.2 GHz
    2.2GHz quad-core
    Intel Core i7
    4GB 1333MHz
    750GB 5400-rpm1
    Intel HD Graphics 3000
    AMD Radeon HD 6750M with 1GB GDDR5
    Built-in battery (7 hours)2
    Often the store will also carry this MacBook Pro, with and without the high-res anti-glare display.
    But again, your mileage may vary.

  • Can I buy 1 TB of space for a iMac Core 2 Duo 2.16GHz 2GB 24'' Desktop?

    My brother is looking to buy this computer:
    iMac Core 2 Duo 2.16GHz 2GB 24'' Desktop
    Specs are:
    Item specifics - Apple Desktops
    Condition: Used
    Processor Type: Intel Core 2 Duo
    Product Family: iMac Processor Speed (per Core): 2.16 GHz
    Screen Size: 24 inches Processor
    Configuration: Dual Core
    Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard
    Memory (RAM): 2 GB
    Primary Drive: Superdrive
    Hard Drive Capacity: 250 GB
    My question is, can he add 1 terabyte of space to this computer? The seller says the Hard drive is defective so he would need to replace it, or is the real capacity up to to 250 gigs?
    Also, if the drive is defective and he buys an external drive can the defective drive ever affect the external drive and how it functions?
    I dont even know why he would need a terabyte of space.... but he is guy what can I say lol

    As long as the replacement HD is the same physical size the capacity doesn't matter. Be aware this is an old machine (about 4 years) so I hope he is not investing too much in it. If he's spending over $500 for it I would strongly recommend he buy an Apple Refurbished iMac instead. These machines are covered by Apple's 1 year warranty and are also eligible for AppleCare. Overall a much wiser decision.
    Regards,
    Roger

  • Are there unlocked iPhone 4S in the retail stores?

    Hi. I live in WA, and my unlocked iPhone 4s I ordered online, but I need another one also. When I was in LA my friend went to the retail store and bought one without staying in a crazy-long line. I'm going to Portland, OR, and the OR state doesn't has a sell-taxes. So, I wonder, are there unlocked iPhone 4s in not-huge apple retail stores as in Portland? And I also heard that there are only black iPhones  are sold in retail stores. Is it true (my friend wanted black one so he didn't asked are there white)? So I don't really want to track 2 weeks my iPhone and want to buy it in retail store.

    You can only buy an unlocked iPhone from an official apple store or at apple.com.

  • Macbook Pro 15 Z0M1 in Apple Retail Store in NY

    Hi guys,
    I am going to NYC on May 7 to May 13 and would like to buy a new Macbook Pro 15 of the following configuration:
    2.3GHz Intel Core i7 Quad-Core
    8GB (2x4GB) RAM
    512GB SSD Hard Drive
    SuperDrive
    AMD Radeon HD 6750M 1GB GPU
    15.4" Antiglare High-Res Widescreen LED Backlit Display
    Secure Digital (SDXC) Card Slot
    FaceTime HD Camera
    Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, 802.11n Wi-Fi
    Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, 5.6 lb
    The questions are:
    1. Can this custom configuration be purchased in one of NY retail stores?
    2. If no, is it possible to buy a Macbook Pro 15 with an antiglare high-res screen in any of retail stores?
    3. Can I buy a standard Macbook Pro 15 configuration (MC723) and add extra 4GB RAM? What else could be added on-site in a retail store?
    4. What is the current tax rate for NYC?
    Thak you.

    Generally speaking, no, they don't. But in a market as large as New York City, some stores may stock some custom configurations. This is why you are being urged to contact one or more of the stores there directly, even if it isn't convenient for you to do so. You can't get a definitive answer to your question any other way.
