Looking for the Apple DIY HDD Instruction (MBP2012 NR)

I remember from my last Macbook that there was a website on apple.com where you could download instructions on how to replace your hard drives and RAM.
There is a link on google which however only relates to the main support page. I know that upgrades are no longer possible for the retina and air models but my current macbook still has a regular SATA drive. There are instructions on ifixit, however I was still hoping to get an "official" document by apple.

Ok just checked a bit further... For the 2011 model they still provide a handbook where there is an instruction at page 40.
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1602/en_US/macbook_pro_15inch_late_ 2011.pdf
The 2012 model the process is identical however there is no handbook available....

  • I'm looking for Windows Apple Configurator for iOS7.

    I am looking for the Apple Configurator for Windows that supports iOS7. I need to install a CA certificate on my iPhone and iPad. Does anyone know where I can find the utility, when it will be available?  Are the other options to install a certificate?
    Thank you.

    I just noticed that the apple configurator app for MacOS was updated yesterday to add ios7 support, so hopefully the iPhone configuration utility for windows won't be too far behind.
    On the other hand, I did just go through the existing profile I had from ipcu 3.62 and made a few changes, removing payload properties that weren't listed in the reference and also were not something obviously necessary.  After that, it seems that the mobileconfig file will apply to an ios 7 device, so that might get me what I need for now.

    Hi.
    I had a similar problem myself. This is what helped me.
    I went to the App store app, scrolled to the bottom, logged out of the account, re logged in with my Apple ID.  Then went back to app updates. Once I put in my ID password all was fine.

  • What is the best product for music and gaming? I'm looking for an apple COMPUTER. Not iPod etc.

    Hi! I am looking for an apple computer that would be good for gaming and music, movies etc. So I would like some input on some different products I'd be able to buy? The types of games I play are downloaded also. Any help would be good! Thank YOU!
    P.S
        I'm looking for preferably a laptop.

    while the Air can play many games fine, it is not an idealized gaming machine.
    examine a macbook Pro model at your local Apple store for evaluation if you plan on much gaming.

  • I have an Apple Retina Pro Notebook and am looking for the most highly recommended compatible wireless printer.  Do you have any recommendations?

    I have an Apple Retina Pro Notebook and am looking for the best compatible wireless printer to use with it.  Do you have any recommendations?

    "WiFi Wireless Printer" seems to give Users the feeling that they somehow print directly from their computer to the Printer. That is NOT how it works.
    To make a WiFi Wireless Printer work, you need to make it a participant on your network, by providing the Network_name and the Password. It then becomes a peer of your MacBook on your home Network, and you can create a Print Queue for it in Add-a-Printer.
    There is no particular advantage to this over, say, an Ethernet Printer -- except that you don't have a Physical cable to string.

  • Looking for resources for the Apple TV; books, web sites, ebooks, etc

    I love to get books or manuals or web sites to read about how my Apple product works, stuff like "The Missing Manual" series. I can't find such a resource for the Apple TV, which I just bought and really love.
    Does anyone know of such a resource?
    Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

  • How do I get the user name and password for the Apple Extreme Router to connect to a Slingbox

    How do I get the user name and password for the Apple Extreme Router to set up my Slingbox?  It will not accept the Apple Extreme Name and password.

    The AirPort Extreme does not have a User Name, but it does have a device name and device password, which you may have already tried.
    There is also a Wireless Network Name and Wireless Network Password for the AirPort Extreme, which might be what the Slingbox is looking for if you are trying to connect it to your wireless network.
    There are no other "user names" or "passwords" on the AirPort Extreme.
    You established the device name, device password, wireless network name and wireless network password when you originally configured the AirPort Extreme.
    If you cannot remember these, you will need to perform a Soft Rest to reset everything. Follow the instructions in this Apple support document:

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

  • I have an external server that stores all my movies and music, is there a way to stream it to my apple tv? If not is there a way I can link the folders to itunes (without downloading files to computer) and will that make them view-able for the apple TV?

    If not is there a way I can link the folders to itunes (without downloading files to computer) that will make them view-able for the apple TV?
    If none of that works is there a way to get it working alternativly?
    Additional Information:
    Everything is linked via ethernet cable.
    I'm using a PC to set it up.
    If you have any other questions feel free to ask and I'll help where I can.
    Thank you for any help

    (I think the daughter got he better end of the deal!)   I believe if you change the password and user id one of the devices it will stop that from occurring. But I'm not the one to tell you how to do it; someone like "Illaass" (Illaass seems to know how to correct / fix almost anything!) will know how if you don't. Just look for the "cat" icon.
