Is my MacBook a uk or us version

I just received a new MacBook Pro from a seller that was fulfilled by amazon. I became suspicious the MacBook would be a US version while it was in transit and asked the question of amazon if it was or UK version. Amazon replied
"Further to your E-mail, I have received an update from our Fulfilment team regarding whether your Apple ME865B/A 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display (Intel Dual Core i5 2.4GHz, 8GB RAM, 256GB HDD, Iris Graphics, Mac OS X) UK or US version.
This is from a UK seller and should be a UK version. It has a security seal so we are unable to open items like this as they would then need to be damaged out.
I hope this helps. We look forward to seeing you again soon."
I have just opened the MacBook that was fully sealed and was pleased to see a UK plug on the power cable but when I opened the book up it only had a $ sign and no £ sign.
I am in a quandary now to if it's a UK or a US version and whether to send it back or not. Any help appreciated in identifying.

Cjx blade,
there are three types of English-language keyboard for MacBook Pros: UK, US, and International. The US keyboard has a “horizontal” Return key, as kevkear’s image shows. The UK and International keyboards both have a “vertical” Return key, as well as an extra key between the left Shift key and the Z key. The way to distinguish between the UK keyboard and the International keyboard is that the UK keyboard has “£” as Shift-3, and the International keyboard has “#” as Shift-3. You can still use the British keyboard layout via the Keyboard pane of System Preferences if you have an International keyboard.

I have never had to enter a password to access mail. However, recently, I keep being asked for password on my ****** address. Only on my macbook. (which, btw, has a version number the drop down doesn't offer as a choice. I had to putt 9.4)

When I look up the account the "password" is a long string of gobbledygook. Something I would never do.
But when I attempt to use that pw I still can't get in.
I have no trouble accessing that email account on my mac mini. Just on the macbook.

Maiko,
I'm confess I'm still trying to get a handle on your problem. You do a fantastic job of describing it ... but I'm just trying to picture it accurately in my head.
I think, were I in your shoes, I'd begin by looking at what the debug page has to say for the specific destination in which you're interested in fixing. In other words, I'm not clear on where, exactly, this destination points ...
Destination illinois.edu.1945806043
Is that your site, or the division within your site that you want to fix? "Normally", you do not need to specify a site handle to get to your site within your transfer CGI ... if you say "uillinois.edu", it's enough to transfer your users to iTunes U ... but every site still has a handle, and you could, if you wanted to, actually specify it in your transfer CGI. For example, this:
Destination uic.edu.1139051993
is for my entire site ... it's my site handle. Whereas this:
Destination uic.edu.1991288441
is for a division within my site ... but it's impossible to tell the difference between "site" and "division" from just the handle (I mean, if I didn't say "this is a site" and "this is a division", there'd be no way for you to know). So when I look at your creds and permissions on your debug page, I can't quite tell if they give you download access for your site, or for the specific division you want to fix. If you could open the debug page with your division as destination (or confirm that that's what we're looking at), it'd rule out some things.

There is no need for anyone to use 32-bit version anymore.
Retail comes with both. Or you can save on just buying 64-bit System Builder disc.
Better support for today's hardware with larger video graphic memory and systems.
Better memory management.

You can run iPhoto 9.2.3 with the system you currently have. It's available thru iLife 11 as Niel has already mentioned.

Why does my MacBook Pro 13" mid 2012 version run quite slowly?

I used to have a Windows PC, which ran VERY VERY VERY slowly. I heard that Macs did not get viruses and ran very quickly, so I bought a brand new MacBook Pro 13" mid 2012 version (entry level). At first it was running quite smoothly, but after some time it became slower, with boot ups taking about 2-3 minutes, instead of the 30 seconds boot up time I kept on hearing on Internet reviews. Is the RAM (4GB) insufficient? Or is 30 seconds just exaggerated? Launching apps can take quite a while, especially graphics intensive apps such as iMovie. Opening folders in my thumb drive can be quite a pain too, seeing as there is a lot of visible lag in the opening of files and folders.

Boot times of 2-3 minutes are a little slow, my 15" doesn't do 30 seconds but faster than 2-3 minutes. From your comments about how you are using the MBP, the entry level model may not have been the best choice...the 13" models have only one graphic processor, the 15" models have two. The normal-usage Intell 4000 and a discrete AMD that kicks in with graphic intensive software. If you are going to do a lot of video and games, the discrete processor will be a big help. Also, 4 GB ram is often more than adequate, but some software really benefits from more ram.
You can check the ram usage, and cpu usage, by going to Launchpad, Utilities, Activity Monitor. See what the memory usage is with your software open and active...is the ram being used fully, are there a lot of page ins and page outs? That means it is using the mass storage as it runs out of memory space. If that is the case, increasing the ram to 8 GB will help.
The Activity Monitor can also show you the load on the cpu so that gives an idea of how much you are pushing the system.

To fix your issue is too complicated and lengthy to go into all of it here, it will require the services of person very familiar and experienced with Mac's to first recover your data and then restore OS X back to a functional state, then hopefully achieve the goals you were attempting.
I advise you hire the services of a local Mac computer support technician experienced in these matters.
Have them look at your Wifi and computer backup proceedures in the process.
Good Luck.

When I left my former employer, Pollinate Agency, I bought a MacBook Pro with Acrobat Pro (version 9 or possibly 9.5) installed from the company. I recently had a serious computer crash, and needed to get all contents erased. The support provider didn't have my product key, so could not reinstall Acrobat Pro for me. Since then, I have gotten the product key sent to me from my former employer, [ REMOVED ] So I need help in re-downloading, installing and activating the Acrobat Pro software on this computer.

Please remove the S/N immediately (I can't or would). Never post them online. As for download you can go to http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html on the right panel to get 9 pro. I am not sure there is a MAC version there, but that is the first place to go. If it is the proper version, then please back it up to CD and/or portable HD, not the system HD.

Does 2013 macbook air use a special version of OSX 10.8.4?

does 2013 macbook air use a special version of OSX 10.8.4?

Don't know about a 'simple data transfer via USB drive'........
Have to make sure 3rd party software (like MS Office 2008 and CleanMyMac 2, etc) make the trip over to the new Macbook Air. Also, my current MacBook Pro does not have USB 3 and that would make a connect slow, very slow. Best bet I think is a Firewire 800 to Thunderbolt connect.
Sadly, this is turning out to be 'like two ships passing in the night' in that OSX 10.8.5 is due out 'soon, very soon' and it reportedly will include drivers, etc that make this issue moot. However, as they say, 'it's my money and I want it now!' , so I won't wait and will settle for 4/5 of the loaf.
Thanks for your help!

Is the hard drive better in the MacBook Pro that the Air version?

Is the hard drive better in the MacBook Pro that the Air version? What are the negatives?

That is a question only Apple can answer and the purchaser must decide if the price is worth it. Apples pricing for upgrades in the past has often been such that third party RAM and HHDs/SSDs were less expensive. However those options are no longer available with the retina MBPs.
Ciao.

Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
If it's a Core Duo Mac, click here, install the DVD, and run Software Update.
If it's a Core 2 Duo or better Mac, follow the Core Duo instructions, open the Mac App Store, and try purchasing Mountain Lion. If you get told it's incompatible, phone the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion.
