Moving to Australia

I am moving to Sydney, Australia on a 2 year assignment. I just bought a new iMac computer here in the states. I know that the power supply is compatible and will manage the power correctly for Syndey, my only issue is where do I get a power cord that will work in Sydney. I know I can simply get an adapter, but I figured it would be more convienient to just get the Australian power cord. I checked on the online store and in the support pages and could not find any place to purchase one. Does anyone have any ideas on where I can get it? I also want to do the exact same thing with my AppleTV and would like to purchase a power cord for that as well. Any tips or weblinks, etc. would be appreciated.

Hi there. I have spares and I'm happy to send you one when you know your Sydney address.
By the way, pity you're going to Sydney. Melbourne's a much better choice!

I would like to have all my contacts, email, etc. however wasn't sure that option was appropriate since it is a different/new number and a new phone.

Yes, as new iPhone then restore from backup.

Moved from Australia to Singapore with a new phone account iphone4

Hi all.
I've just moved from Australia to Singapore. I have my new micro sim from Starhub
But when I put it into the phone I get a " no service" message. Oddly though when
I take the micro sim out of my wife's iPhone her company provided for her here and put it inline
it finds the network straight away. From this im assuming it's not an issue like the
Phone being locked ( which it shouldn't be) but I'm puzzled as to what my next
Step should be. I read somewhere that a local version of iTunes will update the setting in my phone.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

Yes, the cracked screen voids the warranty. Had you exchanged it when you first experienced the problems and before the screen cracked, then it would be covered under warranty and replaced for free.

Buying US T440s but moving to Australia ... will this work?

I'm living in the US but moving to Australia to work.
I'm looking to buy a T440s in the US, but want to run a dual-external monitor setup in Australia. A few quick questions:
1) Will I be able to use my US T440s (20AQCTO1WW) with an Australia Ultradock (40A20170AU)? If so, do I need any accessories to make this happen?
2) Should I get the US 45W 2pin or 65W (assuming 3pin) power cord? Not sure it matters (see #3).
3) When I'm at home I won't have a docking station, and I'd rather not carry a clunky US/AU adapter. Would I be able (either technically or commercially) to buy an AU AC adapter and plug it into my laptop?
Thanks,
Mike

Your boyfriend has to buy an officially unlocked iPhone for you, and I don't know if and when Apple starts selling the new iPhone 5 unlocked in the USA.

Moving to Australia with my Imacs....

I am moving to Australia and have two Imacs. Love them. Want to keep them. Can they run indefinitely on an international power adapter or do I need to change out the power source eventually. I don't want to sell them and rebuy over there.

When I say adapter, I mean an inexpensive plug adapter like found on this page.
Down the page are universal adapters to easily adapt a power cord from anywhere in the world to the wall blades used in both Europe and Australia.

Moving to Australia from Canada

I am moving to Australia in February from Canada. I know I will need an adapter so I can plug it in but what about the transformer?? Some have told me I dont need and others say i do need it for my MacBook Pro.

all you'll need is a different power cable. the transformer is the brick part. get a new one, and you should be golden. i bought my first mac in switzerland and brought it back here. new cable, and i was good to go.

Moving to Australia. Will my iphone be able to work there for an Australian provider?

moving to Australia. Will my iphone be able to work there for an Australian provider?

Your iPhone will work there even if you keep your current US carrier. However, you'll get hit with the high international charges.
If you want a local carrier you have to have an unlocked iPhone. If you do not have one they are easy to busy as the Aussie's require an unlocked option on mobiles unlike the US.
One word of advice. If you plan on getting a land line in your home or cable TV. Look to the same carrier for both your iPhone and land line. Aussie mobile charges are different than what you are use to in the states. You will have to a lot of reading between Aussie carriers to see which plan you want. Getting the wrong plan can be costly.
All Aussie carriers that offer land lines do not charge if you are calling someone with the same carrier. If you have OPTUS then anyone with OPTUS means no charge, it's free except if you have the wrong text message plan. Call from OPTUS to Virgin and you'll get hit with charges.
Confusing I know.

Help ma boab did you migrate over your applications and settings from your old computer? It does appear the installer was unable to create the Adobe Photoshop CS5 folder since your current User account did not have sufficient access to either modify they Applications or Adobe Photoshop CS5 folder if it already exists.
If you migrated/copied any files or applications from your old computer then I would recommend running the uninstaller from the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder. Once you have uninstalled please run the CC Cleaner Tool prior to reinstalling Photoshop CS5. Please see Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html for information on how to use the CC Cleaner Tool.

MX870 moved from Australia, Ink Cartridges not recognised

Hi, haing recently moved from Australia to CT I purchased replacement ink and inserted the cartirdiges. Whilst the actual cartidge numbers on the pack were different to those used in Aus, the pack had MX870 as being supported on it. The printer states the cartridges are not recognised. This does not make sense, I bought canon ink.

Hi, CAJ!
Thanks for sticking with Canon. Genuine Canon printer ink and Canon printers are designed to be sold and used in specific countries or regions. As such, a Canon printer purchased in Australia would only be able to use genuine Canon inks purchased in Australia. Likewise, inks purchased in the United States would only be able to work on Canon printers sold through Canon USA.
We hope this clears things up!

TS1474 I have a friend who is moving to Australia she has been told that if she plugs her ipod into a computer over there she will lose everything on it. Is this true.

I am moving to Australia to live. Can I resync my ipod with itunes on a computer over there without losing everything.

Wait, is this for a friend of for you? And yes, that is true. Your iPod can only be synced with one computer at a time. If you try to sync it with a new computer/iTunes library, it will replace the contents of the iPod with whatever is in the new library. You should probably disable the autosync functionality first by going to Edit -> Preferences, clicking the Devicestab, and enabling the prevent iPods,iPhones, and iPads from automatically syncing option.
Before doing anything else, authorize the new computer with your iTunes Account. In iTunes, choose Store -> Authorize This Computer and enter in the correct credentials. Either copy a backup file from your old computer to your new one or create a new backup of your iPod in iTunes before letting it sync.
Then right->click on your iPod Touch from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes and choose Backup. You might also want to take a look at this article to see what it all included in the backup.
iOS: How to back up
Now onto synced content such as music, videos, photos, etc. For iTunes purchases you can copy them back into iTunes by choosing File -> Transfer Purchases. For all other nonpurchased iTunes content, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering different software available to assist you with this task.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2452022?start=0&tstart=0
Once the backup has been made and all other synced content such as music, videos, and photos are back in your iTunes library, restore your iPod from that backup you made earlier. Here is more on backing up and restoring your iPod.

If you do happen to lose any purchased content, you can always redownload it from the iTunes Store again at no cost via iCloud. See this article for information.

HT1918 Hi, I have moved from Australia to New Zealand and cant update my account to an nz credit card... What do i need to do?

Hi, I have moved from Australia to New Zealand and cant update my account to an nz credit card... What do i need to do?

Hi...
Your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside. So you need to establish a credit account with a bank in NZ.
"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

C4485 All-in-one UK moved to Australia

I purchased a c4485 All in one photosmart in the UK about late 2008 / 2009.
I have since moved to Australia and am having trouble with compatibility of cartridges.
I was advised to use the cartridges for the c4480 (the 74 XL and 75 XL) as they would be compatible.
Unfortunately, they have resulted in the "incompatible cartridge" message from the printer.
Having checked the website it seems that moving nations can cause some compatibility issues for otherwise compatibe cartridges.
Please advise.
Thank you.

You will need to Contact HP to request a "Regionalization Reset". There should not be any charge for this, it is covered as part of the cartridge warranty. You will need to have access to your computer and printer while on the line with HP. You will also need to have a set of cartridges for the new region, once the reset is complete cartridges from the original region will no longer work. HP's web page on the subject is here.

Actually it depends on the Bandwidth of the network they will be using. You can see a list of tech specs on the iPad website.
