Is it likely that my Retina MBP will be delivered before estimated shipping date?

Hey!
Basically, I have ordered a Retina MBP on June 29th along with Microsoft Office.
As expected, Microsoft Office was delivered first and even 2 days BEFORE the estimated delivery (considering it was supposed to take 5-7 days)
So I wanted to know if by any chance the RMBP was likely to be delivered before thé estimated delivery date.
I chose expedited shipping by the way.
Thanks!
PS: Since I'm supposed to get it at the end of July, do you think that the RMBP will be shipped with Mountain Lion already?

Possibly. No one can say with absolute certainty.

I doubt it since you ordered it in June, but you will receive a free upgrade to Mountain Lion.

HT3910 Original OSX 10.5.6 and app dvd's (that came w/MBP) lost,and have recv'd replacement dvd from Apple. Once hard drive is erased and new OS w/dvd instl'd, how do I insure all applications bundle - that came with MBP - will reinstall?

Your profile says you have 10.6, so why bother with the original 10.5 OS?
But to your question, before you erase anything, make a backup of your data for safe keeping and restoration. Having an external hard drive for this purpose is most useful.

I have an estimated ship date of 10/14/2014, for 2 iphone 6 16GB in Silver. Like others I have not received any new details since receiving the order confirmation. Can anyone tell me if my order will ship tomorrow?

I dont mean to rude. but I have seen the same response to others over the past month. I have been keeping up w/ check status from the link provided in my order confirmation. At this point your depts management should be demanding more detailed info on order status. They have you customer service folks answering these question blindly, wasting your time and mine and ultimately costing verizon money which they will pass along to me and the other millions of customers out there. If you cannot give me a more detailed answer please escalate this to someone who can. Thank you.

Does the expected ship date mean that my iPhone 6 will be delivered on that day, or just shipped?

Because it says "We received your order and is in process." Expected ship date: 10/3/14. Does that mean I will get my phone on the 3rd of October or is that when they ship it?

Hi Chickencpvp
Great question! That will be the shipping date. The arrival date will be different.

Anybody else that had an ESTIMATED SHIP DATE OF BY THE NOV 18TH HASN'T Shipped YET?

Just curious if I am the only that had a phone that was supposed to ship by the Nov 18th that hasn't shipped yet. Checked today and it still hasn't shipped either.
Ordered a 32 GB Black iPhone 4s on 11/3.
Thanks

I guess the operative word is "estimated". I've had my ship date pushed back due to an order glitch, and from what I've read, the demand for the 4s everywhere is greater than Apple anticipated. So deliveries will be slower, unless you find one at an Apple store (being in the right place at the right time - that happened to my wife, I was slower in ordering mine).

HT5455 Is It normal that my premium category 15" retina MBPs screen has ghosting issues, then I get declined from screen replacement?

Is It normal that my premium category 15" retina MBPs screen has ghosting issues, and I get declined from screen replacement?
I have purchased this hardware in Budapest for approximately 3000 usd. I was a bit shocked to see screen ghosting after a few days of use. The problem was getting worse but because I am a design consultant working mainly on my Mac I couldnt take a week off to leave It at an Apple service station.
Last week I was surprised to receive the information from the local Apple repair shop in Germany that my retina MBP that I bought 13 months ago was declined from screen replacement by Apple.
Considering the price of the product I find It unacceptable that I need to work on a defective product and see shadows every time I leave an Illustrator or InDesign window open for a short period of time.
Is there any way to resolve this issue? I wouldnt like to pay another 800 dollars just to replace a component on my defective Apple product.

Contact Apple Support directly. In Germany the Expresslane or this number
0800 6645 451 will allow you to speak directly to someone from Apple. Explain your situation. Mind you, AppleCare and issues with Apple products like this have to occur without any user accidents or user installed parts to ensure that Apple will cover you. If there was a user accident or installed part, you may be turned down. If you have the original Apple parts, and did the installation yourself, replace it with the original parts very carefully following the directions on http://www.ifixit.com/ unless you can afford an authorized service provider to do it for you. Since we don't speak for Apple here, being end users like yourself, that's why I say "may", as I've seen Apple handle these things on a case by case basis. So hopefully you don't have any obvious damage that looks like it is user caused. Good luck!

8GB vs. 16GB, revisited for Retina MBP, advances in tech and low prices

Hi everyone. The "How much RAM is the right amount" has been asked for a long time, but I'd like to re-ask the question keeping in mind that the Retina MBP cannot be upgraded but it already gives you a generous 8GB. I know, I know, it all depends on what you use it for, so let me give you my usage scenario: I have at least two browsers open with about 30 tabs open between them. Safari and Chrome to be precise. I haven't used Firefox in a while, but may go back to using it again as well. I also like to keep Mail, Messages, Calendar, Notes, and some monitoring utilities open at all times as well.
I also want to ask the question with OS X memory usage and how Activity Monitor reports RAM usage. For example, I had 16GB on my late-2011 17" MBP just because it was cheap and Activity Monitor breaks down RAM usage in 4 areas: Active, Wired, Inactive, Free, where the first two is RAM actually used by the system, but Inactive RAM was often used to a fairly large degree. Sometimes it would report RAM as "Inactive" to the point where only 1 or 2GB were shown as "Free". Quick disclaimer: I know that inactive RAM can be immediately assigned to applications that need it, but what I'd like to know is as to whether the overall speed and stability of so many apps would truly benefit from 16GB of RAM or not. There must be some reason for this Inactive RAM being used as what, caching? It almost has to be of some benefit, because if there wasn't any benefit to it, why have the "Inactive" category at all, or am I missing something here?
Thanks everyone. :-)

I would say you will want the 16GB for a few reasons. You are working with memory-intensive datasets, and also you are running a virtual machine. VMs tend to use up a lot of RAM since it means you are running two complete OSs at the same time, on top of any other apps you might be running.
The third reason is that the Retina models cannot be upgraded after purchase. You would not want to have an 8GB forever if you discovered that your future work needed a bit more memory. You've already demonstrated doing some tasks that can be RAM-intensive, just max out the RAM and never worry about it again.
If you still have doubts, learn how to analyze RAM usage and particularly swap file behavior in Activity Monitor. If your Mac is already paging to swap files frequently, you already need the RAM. If you do work for several days and swap paging activity is low, you don't need the RAM.

Ship date of OCT 31st, iphone 6 plus has anyone with that date recieved yet

Final cut 10.1 will not output or input thru Blackmagic intensity shuttle thunderbolt on 2013 Retina MBP while Premere Cs6 does

Final Cut 10.1 will not output or input thru Blackmagic intensity shuttle thunderbolt on 2013 Retina MBP while Premere Cs6 does

As I mentioned, Premere Cs6 has no issues with the BM Intensity Shuttle Thunderbolt. This proves that the Mac sees the shuttle. iMovie, like FCPX 10.1 does not see it. Not sure if this is an Apple issue or a BlackMagic issue. I plan to contact BlackMagic on Monday out of curiosity. This issue is more of a surprise than a dead end. Happily there are easy workarounds for capture. I use the BlackMagic software to capture. My main issue seems to be that I am unable to use FCPX to output through the Shuttle. Fortunately I have a Mac Pro and an older BlackMagic card which has worked. It is so very nice to skim video on an SSD. No lag and no wear and tear on a mechanical hard drive. The 1Tb Apple SSD is shockingly fast. It is a new world.

When will Adobe CS6 InDesign be optimized for the retina MBP?

When will Adobe CS6 InDesign be optimized for the retina MBP?

Nobody knows even whether CS6 will get this or if there wil lbe a paid/ Creative Cloud exclusive 6.5 update or something liek that. You're asking teh wrong question to the wrong people. Even if we knew, we wouldn't be allowed to tell you anything until Adobe announces this officially.

Non retina 15" MBP will not wake up after sleep following mountain lion upgrade

I have an early 2012 15" 2.2 MBP with the 4gb video card. since upgrading to ML a lengthy sleep renders it unresponsive. it will not wake up and will have to be force shut down, then restarted to use. you can here the hard drive spin up after a long sleep (6-8 hours) but only after you hit the power button. even so it's completely unresponsive until restarted.. i noticed apple released an update for retina MBPs for the same issue. unfortunately they have not released the same update for non retina users yet.

Since you had NO problems before ML upgrade:
Not to side with the tech or you, because upgrading OS can be frustrating (it shouldn't).
It appears that you need to do a reinstall (backup first). Its pretty simple to reinstall, just go to boot drive and reinstall. You'll probably have to reinstall print drivers, other than that it's pretty straight forward.
A couple of things I'd do before and after reinstall is to repair the disk (3 times each) while in the boot drive. Then once completed choose the startup disk in system preferences or at least verify it's the startup disk, then repair permissions. If you add apps or printer drivers repair permissions again.
A major problem for lots of folks updating to a new OS is they don't think about disk health....And that's why it's important to insure everything is in mint condition before upgrading to a new OS. The same reason many choose to do a FRESH install of a new OS, by zeroing out the HDD (or SSD) and then repairing the disk and then installing the new OS (you MUST have a solid backup before doing so).
I always have at least 2 solid backups before doing so, but that's me. 100% of the time I do a fresh install of a new OS.
I have a spare computer I use as a test machine for a week or so by upgrading without fresh install. After figuring out all the possible bugs with the test machine I do a clean install of my other computers and once there stable I do a fresh install of the upgraded one.
Not a lecture on how to do things just my procedure which has served me over the years without any problems.
I have photos, videos, documents, and financial records dating back to 1991 so I must be doing something right.

If I do a full system restore on my MBP will i get ilife off of the boot disks that came with the computer?

Hi on my MBP i am going to restore it.
It came with iLife will this be on the boot disks?
Thanks

If your computer shipped with Snow Leopard, that means it shipped with two disks: an Install disk that contains the OS, and an applications disk that contains the iLife suite. You would use the applications disk to reinstall iLife.

As long as it meets the minimum technical specifications, although the more above the minimum you have, the better the experience.

Bought retina Mbp yesterday couldn't afford biggest hard drive, recommendations for future external drive?

I bought a retina Mbp yesterday. I bought the 8 RAM. It is the middle model. I couldn't afford the top model with more RAM and bigger hard drive. I have been told that in the future, I will probably need an external hard drive. Any recommendations on external hard drives?

If you wanna save some money, go to an internet retailer/local computer store and buy an external enclosure. Then after that, buy a notebook/desktop hard drive (whatever fits, 3.5in = desktop, 2.5in= notebook). I reccomend getting a hard drive over 500gb, with 7200rpm, sata 6gbs (if desktop HDD) and at least 8mb cache. If your Mac supports it, do RAID 1, which basically sets the opposite disk as a backup. You can also buy an SSD, which is much more expensive, but up to 3x faster than a HDD. You can buy them at the same store and can format the drive to your liking. They usually come in 2.5 inch, are extremely light, have a large data cache, and are the future of memory storage.
Also, while you are over there buy 1600mhz 8gb memory. Get the single stick and replace only 1 of the already installed sticks. I personally think 12gb is enough, but if you want more, buy another stick of the same RAM.
I hope this helped!

Upgraded 2012 MACBOOK PRO 2.6Ghz 8GB RAM 750 GB an alternate for RETINA MBP 15 or NOT?How good is its potential, reliability ?

I am a student and an aspiring filmmaker.I am also into digital cinematography (Canon 550D) and now will be venturing into editing. I am in DIRE NEED of help
I have a few problems regarding the purchase of Macbook pro.I live in Kolkata(India).I have been waiting for the past 1 and a half years to buy a Mac but after the release of Retina Macbook pro 15.I am left confused. Its near unupgradability and unreparibility rumors, delayed delivery, and 1st generation hardware issues especially the lack of Optical drive made me reconsider my decision of buying one.
I want to know whether I can go for the top model of Non Retina - 2.6Ghz 8GB RAM 750 GB 1 GB Nvidea as an alternate choice for Retina MBP pro or NOT ?
1.I wanted to buy the Retina Base model. Though it is very recently launched and there is a big risk buying it because they say it is unrepairable and unfixable as 'everything is glued into the motherboard' dialogue scares me. Something goes wrong after purchase and they send it back to US, is what the Apple officials said. Moreover they don’t keep one on a demo at Apple stores in kolkata. I have searched almost everywhere and have been to many resellers in my city but no use.
NOW,I am very sceptical about custom ordering a Macbook 15 non retina with High-Res 1680X1050p from US.I don’t know how much custom duty or expenses I have to pay and is it safe or not. Time is also a factor. Sadly, I have to buy one in Kolkata (my city) it seems.
2. I am opting for Macbook Pro 15,2.6 Ghz,8GB RAM. Buying it for the sole purpose of editing(audio, video, photos).I need something which is fast along with a good screen size. My original decision was to buy the 17inch but after the launch of Retina and the upgraded 15 inch, I am only looking forward to the upgraded models. Many say 13 inch is fast, but it features a dual core with a maximum of 2.9Ghz clockspeed. I on the other hand want a quad core i7 with good upgradability options and a good screen size. The 13 inch may be a favorite for many, but I want nothing less than a 15 inch. One good option I get with non Retina 15 is its upgradability, while many say Retina MBP 15 can be made upgradable in future but that time is yet to come and by the time the whole web becomes ‘retina friendly’ and all applications supporting its 2880X1800 resolution, I may end up waiting only. Yes the picture quality remains unbeatable when compared to Retina Pro and it will always be. Though friends, I am a student, I want something which is fast, can run almost anything and future dependable. Retina Mac book Pro in India is 2799 USD - Base model. I cannot pay that amount just for the screen. As far as speed is concerned, I plan to get an OWC SSD and a 16 GB OWC RAM in the future resulting in greater speed when comparing the configuration with Retina 15.That problem is solved.
My problem here is this: The web is filled with reviews and videos of Retina Macbook Pro and the upgraded Macbook Pro 15 is just no where, if you even find a few videos, they only feature unboxing videos of Macbook pro 15 (i7-2.3Ghz-4GB-500GB-500MB Nvidea).Other videos compare the 2.3ghz model with Retina 15 pro. They are not elaborate like the 15 Retina Pro reviews.
1. I want to know about the real performance, potential, pros, cons of Macbook Pro 15 (i7 2.6Ghz 8GB RAM 750 GB 1GB Nvidea graphics).
So my question to you is what is your opinion on the 15 inch non retina ? HOW FAST do you think is the new upgraded 15inch non retina i7-2.6Ghz-8GB-750GB model really is ?I have read on many mac forums and seen on a particular youtube video that 15inch 2.3Ghz model takes an alarming 40 seconds to start because of traditional hard drive ! A normal DELL Inspiron starts at 15 secs max with i3+4 GB RAM and this particularly confuses me about the whole quad core processing and stuff and speed when running applications like C6,FCP,Lightroom etc is to be determined in regard to the model I want to buy.
2. Is it necessary to buy APPLE CARE WARRANTY when buying a laptop from Apple.What are the benefits and how is it different form the normal customer care ?
3. Please enlighten me on some nice headphones from Sennheizer under 90 USD.I am considering Sennheiser HD 439.I am not a bass freak and I want something to use for listening to voice, loud clear. In short, a headphone for all purpose. I heard the HD 449 is not that good compared to HD 439.They say it is Jazz oriented. Another confusion !
Finally, If you know anyone who knows about this configuration (15inch 2.6 8GB RAM 750GB) and its performance than please help me out my friends. Any small detail, input, you feel like please let me know. Please help me be sure and satisfied am buying my Macbook Pro very soon and I am awaiting your response.

Well, are you talking about a 750 Hard Drive or SSD? If SSD (quite expensive) it will certainly be as fast. One option is to get the smallest HD they have and with the Non Retina you can upgrade the HD to an SSD later or now but save a little money. Check with iFixit or OWC for instructions. HD's do take longer to start up and load, but once open, the processor and video work just the same as on the Retina model. The SSD speed is nice, but really not critical. So you have to wait a minute for your computer to boot up. The other big question is you need to find out if the non-retina model will take 16GB of ram. According to OWC's site, it will, 16GB for 150USD. Once you get programs open and resident in ram, everything will fly.

Is it likely that my Retina MBP will be delivered before estimated shipping date?
