Macbook didn't come with Pages and Keynote??

Macbook pro with retina display didn't come with Pages or Keynotes. I recently chatted with a representative who said that they come pre-installed.

According to the online store, Pages, Numbers and Keynote are all extras at $19.99 each. If you ordered your MBP with any of these extra cost options, you will have to get a redemption code from Apple support and download them from the App Store.
Ciao.

My MacBook Pro didn't come with Pages while my previous MacBook did...is that normal?

I bought a MacBook Pro a little over a year ago and it didn't come with Pages. I thought this was normal but my MacBook which I had a couple years ago previously did come with Pages. Are all laptops supposed to come with Pages automatically? My MacBook Pro did come with Keynote which I thought was strange and random....any thoughts? If the MacBook WAS supposed to come with Pages, is there any way for me to get it now or is it too late? Thank you!

No.
iWork was never bundled with a Mac.It was an optional buy.
Now you can download iWork free from App store if you buy a new Mac.
Best.

If you just purchased the MBP, then contact Apple support for a redemption code so you can download it from the App store.

Do refurbished macbook airs come with pages and the rest of the iLife suite as new macbook airs?

Thinking about adding a refurbished MacBook Air to the stable. Does anyone know if refurbished macbook airs come with pages the rest of the iLife suite the same as new macbook airs?

They may have iLife pre-installed, but not iWork. In any event you are able to get both for free when you buy a new computer. I don't know if this extends to refurbs. Nevertheless, you should be able to get iWork as a new Mavericks user. If you've already gotten them for your other computers, then the re-downloads are free.
iWork and iLife for Mac come free with every new Mac purchase. Existing users running Mavericks can update their apps for free from the Mac App Store℠. iWork and iLife for iOS are available for free from the App Store℠ for any new device running iOS 7, and are also available as free updates for existing users. GarageBand for Mac and iOS are free for all OS X Mavericks and iOS 7 users. Additional GarageBand instruments and sounds are available for a one-time in-app purchase of $4.99 for each platform.

MacBook didn't come with an iLife CD?

My MacBook is currently in the process of being replaced, and I figured that, since I have the opportunity, I'll reinstall OSX when I get the new machine so that I have more free space for BootCamp and stuff.
Anyway, I noticed that my first MacBook didn't actually come with a iLife install disc... Did I just not see it? I'll want to reinstall the iLife programs...

Francis,
iLife is part of the included installation disks that come with the MBP. When doing an install, they will automactically be included, unless you choose to not install them when you pick Customize during install.

MacBook Didn't Come With Boot Camp Assistant

I ordered my Macbook on 26 December and it came in on 3 January, with Leopard and the Leopard disc, but Boot Camp was not installed. It is my understanding that it was supposed to come with it. Public Beta is no longer available for download, either...
So what am I supposed to do in order to get Boot Camp on my MacBook ?

Try this:

Why doesn't my new hard drive come with Pages and Numbers?

I just got a new hard drive installed in my Mac Book Pro. It doesn't have Numbers and Pages as an included app. How do I get those w/o having to pay the $40 app fee?

If you previously downloaded them from the Mac App Store or associated them with an Apple ID, log into the Mac App Store with that Apple ID and download them from the Purchases tab.
If you got them on an iWork DVD or with a Mac that originally shipped with 10.6.8 or earlier, install them from DVD.
If you got them with a Mac that originally shipped with 10.7 or newer but didn’t associate them with an Apple ID, click here.

Im from Colombia and I want to buy a MacBook Pro, it comes with phothoshop and stuffs like that? or im gonna need to but it separately?

You could use a Windows 7 Pro version (or better version) PC and test CS2 for free to see if it's enough for what you need.
Also works on older used Mac's running OS X 10.6

If it's right for you then by all means pull the trigger on the new MacBook Pro and buy CS6.

Macbook Pro didn't come with Installation disk

Hello. My 13inch Macbook pro just arrived today. It's Mac OS X Lion 10.7. After powering it up my first order of buisness was to install windows 7 through bootcamp. Then I made the discovery that this Macbook didn't come with an installation disk which I find damned odd. I checked the box and the little notebook holders, and there's no disk. This thing isn't even a day out of the box, so should I call apple and see if they'll send me one or is there something I'm missing?

Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
When the menubar appears select Terminal from the Utilities menu. Enter resetpassword at the prompt and press RETURN. Follow instructions in the dialog window that will appear.

Mac didn't come with iLife!

I just bought my MacBook Pro on Sunday from Virgin Megastores and it didn't come with iLife and I did my research and it says that it should have come with it! What should I do? Should I take it back and tell them that it didn't come with it? Because now it's making me pay for each of them and they're really expensive!

If Virgin promised to include what used to be the iLife apps, they should have given you a code which you then enter in the App Store to download and install the apps free of charge. So, you might want to contact them again, indeed.

Excuse somebody can tell me if I had Pages and Keynote I need Microsoft Office too?

please somebody tell me Today Im goint to buy a macbook pro 13' and I have an ipad with pages and keynote, can I use this app's on the mac ? or I need Microsoft Office

You only need Microsoft Office if you plan to hone your life skills on it as nearly 95% of businesses use it.
However there is a Pages and Keynote version for OS X (sold seperatly), but there is the free LibreOffice suit which is extremely popular amongst Mac users as there is a Windows and Linux versions too, the files are cross compatible and they open/write Office format also.

You may have to right or control key click on the app/installer to "open" and confirm to bypass 10.8's Gatekeeper security.

How do I get Coverflow view for pages and keynote? Thanks.

Coverflow works by clicking the Coverflow view and then selecting the file. I've checked with Pages and Keynote both work perfectly. Perhaps you would post more info.

I bought a used macbook air, it didn't come with the flash drive to do a factory reset. Can I download the info needed and save it to my own flash drive and then do a factory reset? If not what can I do?

If it originally shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, click here, phone Apple, and order a replacement.
If it originally shipped with Mac OS X 10.7 or newer, restart it with the Option, Command, and R keys held down.

I bought a used MacBook Pro and didn't come with an install disc.

I recently purchased a used MacBook Pro, it is the 2006 15.4inch, with 1.83GHz Intel core duo processor. It didn't come with RAM, a charger or the instal disc and the battery was dead. I installed RAM, bought a battery and charger and it booted up no problem, but I can't get past the login because I don't know the previous owners password. How do I get passed this point so? What OSX do I buy?

In the mean time try this: Run Mac Setup Assistant -
Restart the machine with the Command and S keys held down, and type the following commands into the prompt in order:
mount -uw /
mv /var/db/netinfo/local.nidb /var/db/netinfo/local.nidb.old
mv /var/db/.AppleSetupDone /var/db/.AppleSetupDone.old
usr/libexec/create_nidb
shutdown -h now
The Setup Assistant will reappear the next time your computer is turned on. Be sure to enter the commands properly. You will be able to setup your user name password, etc. You can then delete the previous owners User.

if you're running Snow Leopard - there there will be no recovery partition - only Lion and Mountain Lion has that.
did you buy your Macbook used?
you can call Apple to order the original install DVD for your Macbook or you can order Snow Leopard for $20.
