Mac Book Pro bought in US, use in India

If I buy a MacBook Pro in the US, do I need a voltage converter to use it in India (college) or just a plug adaptor?

just a plug in converter. it is built to handle the voltage changes!

Will there be an internation warranty?
Can I reach an authorized apple retailer in India, in case of a problem?

There are no laws about importing electronics.

Yes you will need a new charger or an adapter to fit your power socket.

No. You need to show where you are studying. They are not going to accept it if it's in another country.

You don't reside in America, so no finance company is going to give you a loan from America. You will need to organise finance in India.

Yes.

Don't forget to add sales tax to the American price. You will need to work out & decide if this is worth it or not.

Hello Teddy53149 and welcome to Apple Support Communities,
Follow this procedure:
Change your OS X account name and home directory name - Apple Support
As they recommend and as always when you're messing with administrator accounts back everything up first.

I can see my folders by clicking the X next to my name on the Inbox Folder. So I have my folders now, just cannot see them in the left colum or see multiple windows on Outlook. At this point, I can use the folders, just with limited functionality. Thanks -Gina

Hi all - troubles sons mac book pro (bought Dec 2011). When he turn it on - get folder with ? I assume can't find start-up items. trouble is - he can't get disk to go in

HI all
Pardon me for the stupid title - -been some time since on the forum
This is much better.
So the situation on son's Mac Book Pro.
It seems a few days ago the computer would not take a CD - -not huge deal
Then suddenly he had trouble.
Turned on computer and get the folder with the ?     I am pretty certain this means it
can't find the start-up items.
I guess he tried to do some "diagnostics on the internet - it was a Hardware diag.
and said everything was OK but couldn't find a HD
So he bought a new HD and we just installed it. Start tje computer and the same question in folder.
He bought the HD from apple so not an aftermarket.
I guess he is not sure where is start-up disks our (kids)   but what can we do now?
He is at our house now and can't seem to connect to the internet becuase he can't see my network
which is wireless.
Is there something we can try - -should we re-install the old HD - -the new one may not be formatted
not sure all we know is it was from Apple direct.
He just told me the OLD hard drive could be read by a device at school. So it seems perhpas the HD MAY? be
OK but there is some sort of communication thing going on.
In the old dayson my G-3 slot - -we would start up with a network
Not sure how do do any of that on this book
PLease help - - very important (he is a grad student and needs the computer that is why he paid for
on day shipping
What do we do? Any tips tricks?\ please offer any ideas - -dad is stuck - -Thanks
Jim

Hello Grant - -Thanks - -
I notice you are west of Boston - -we in Medford and son goes to Tufts in town
(small world)
Not really certain what you are telling us - - I am not good at computers
A couple of other things that may be tips - -
1 - on wednesday of this week
our son noticed the fan was going on almost continuosly,
After that trouble started - -
2. - When we put the new HD in - -same things happened,
which is ? mark in folder (start-up items)
3. - His computer will not see my wireless even if I put it next to my I-mac
It sees several networks but not mine - -and if we type in my netwokr
info - -it will not take.   He wanted to try a network start-up .
I forget how that is done.
4, - The bottom of the computer is getting hot - -much hotter than i think it should.
any ideas why his computer won't see my router?
I think he may just have to take it to Apple Store on Newbury Street.
Would they be able to get his info off the old HD assuming it is still good and
transfer to the new HD fairly easy.
LAstly - - I am pretty certain I have the str-up disks for my I-mac which is running
10.5.8.
Would I be able to do anything with my computer and hook into his computer
into mine like an external device or something like that
I really appreciate your thoughts and efforts on this and must admit I have no
external enclosrure? but I have an external HD on my I-mac
As you can tell - -I am not to good at this
Thanks from Meffa    (lol0   Jim the father

TS3477 How can I view movies, pictures, etc from Mac Book Pro (bought in he States) on a Sony TV(in Europe). Do you have change the settings on the Mac to comply with the european TV ?

I have a Mac book pro ( 7,1 version ) bought in the US and want to see some videos, pictures and movies on a Sony TV with HDMI connection (in Europe).
When connecting both the pc and the tv, I get on the tv the opening screen of a mac book pro but although a movie is playing on the pc it does not show on the tv. Do I have to change something in the displays on the system preference screen ?
Thanks for helping out.

By 'opening screen' do you mean the spiral galaxy desktop? If so, then, with the TV connected to the MBP, open System Preferences ➜ Displays ➜ Arrangement. You will see an image of two screens. At the top of the smaller of the two screens in the image is a small bar, this represents the menu bar at the top of your display. Drag this small bar to the top of the larger of the two screens in the image. The menu bar and dock will now appear on the TV which is now the primary display and all the action will take place there.

I want to by a new Mac Book Pro, but I still use Creative Suite CS6. Is it still working?

I want to by a new Mac Book pro with Yosemite, but I still use Creative Suite CS6 and I don´t want to update it to CC. So it is very important for me to know if CS6 is working on Yoemite. I rode that After Effects and Photoshop are fine, but what is with Indesign CS6, Illutrator CS6 and all the other Programms. Please let me know if it is possible?
Thanks

CS6 apps are supported on Yosemite, but if you buy a retina display model you will not be happy with some of the apps such as InDesign which are not optimized for that display.

How can I mirror my Mac Book Pro to my TV using Apple TV 3

Is it possible to mirror my Mac Book Pro running Lion to my HD TV which is connected to Apple TV 3?

No, you cannot do this with Lion OS X.
Reportedly the mirroring feature has been demo-ed with the next operating system Mountain Lion, however as yet we do not know if there will be any hardware restrictions to this feature.

I have a image backup from an earlier mac book pro 15 can i use it?

Can i run my earlier mac book pro OSX LION on this one?
it was hte model 15 inch before this one
or cant i due to hardware changes and driver restrictions
or does osx lion not care about drivers for hardware update?

You can't run because of hardware changes and driver problems.

I am looking to upgrade my white iBook to a mac book pro, it will be used for photo editing up of som 50k photos or more for the family. iPhoto stoked on external HD

What type of mac book pro should I look at with 8 or 16gb ram?.

8 GB RAM will be sufficient for photo editing. The 15" display would be superior in both size and resolution when compared to the 13". The best approach is to test both in an Apple store.
Ciao.

When I FaceTime my wife from iPad her iPhone rings but not our Mac book pro. They both used to ring. Mac book pro FaceTime doesn't seem to be able to send or receive FT calls

When calling from the Mac book pro it shows up on my iPad and will say connecting but never connects. On the Mac book it just keeps ringing

I can't believe it!! But this answers my question. I pair up quickly between my iphone5 and iMac, but cannot transfer pics from my iphone to the iMac over Bluetooth as I expeceted I would easily be able to do. After all, I did this with my old Mac and a simple Motorola cell phone years ago.
So, the answer is that file transfer from iphone5 is not supported. Really!!
Not sure why capabilites have regressed, this is disappointing, but thanks for the answer, at least I know to stop beating my head against the wall searching for some hidden box to check. This seemed like such an obvious capability between Apple devices I couldn't understand why I was having such difficulty. It seemed like it would be seamless, but it can't be done. Baffling.

Mac book pro bought 6 month ago get super slow.

I bought my mac bok pro six month ago, now to boot up it takes 4-5 minutes also speed is quite slow any suggestions. have already tried downloading updates and have also installed LION.
Thanks.

You can--here is a link to some very explicit step by step instructions:
http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/14.html
The main concern would be anything you might have on Lion that would not be compatible with Snow Leopard. If your Mail is in the Lion Mail format, you may not be able to put it back into Snow Leopard successfully. So if you just upgraded to Lion, and have a recent Time Machine backup that goes back to Snow Leopard, you can restore to where you were before upgrading to Lion without losing very much.
You can also up the RAM to 8 GB yourself for about $72. I am pretty sure that OWC ships overseas. If you want to stick with lion, this might be a good option.

Recently bought a mac book pro with lion, and using time machine brought over all my info from my mac book with snow leopard. Iphoto is now showing blank squares. I already rebuilt the library. What next?

Info in the title. I've received conflicting advice help from the Apple Store so I thought I'd try here. I've restored iphoto from my lastest back-up on time machine from my old computer (iphoto works well on old computer), I've rebuilt the library, I've put the old library on a thumb drive and loaded it manually. It's all there on my old computer, but won't work in my new iphoto.

Try directly copying the Library from the old machine.
To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
