New macbook after old sent in for repair

So I sent my white macook core duo in for repairs since it would not recognize the battery. Three days after sending the computer in I received a call from apple saying that they wanted to keep my computer and send me a brand new one. Something about doing research on that particular problem. Has this happened to anyone else?

no problem at all, just trying to see if this has happened to anyone else. not only am I getting core 2, but I am also getting double layer dvd and i think i heard someone say that the wireless was improved. what else is different between the first and second generation?

Sent in for Repair on "whine"

Ok. Got the Macbook yesterday and experienced the noises. I talked to applecare today. They are aware of the display whine and said that I need to have it sent in for repair where they will fix the display inverter. The other issue I told him about was the left fan running constantly and another whine noise but not as bad as the display high pitched noise.
He wrote it all down for the techs.... and said that a box will be at my house in a few days and it will be back to me within 7 days.
We'll see if I follow through with this or now.

Iv been through this... Try calling Apple and cheack your Order status with the Order # they gave you. On Mon., I was told I should have a new MacBook in my hand within a week after they get my FedEx tracking #. Later in the day I called to give them my FedEx tracking #, then they told me I should be getting my MacBook on the 22 of March (almost a month away). The rep I spoke to told me there is nothing they can to to speed things up...

New MacBook on old Time Machine backup-creates a new one!

I've read lots of posts on this, but I can't seem to find the anwer to my problem.
I have a Time Machine backup of the last year. However, I just bought a new MacBook Air and I need for Time Machine to inherit this new Mac to my old backup.
I used Migration Assistant to transfer evrything from my old MacBook to the new one.
But when I turned Time Machine on, it starts creating a new backup.
I need it to keep using the backup of my old MacBook.
From what I've have read in other web pages where they show how to's on Time Machine, is that once I bring everything from my old Mac (restore from the Time Machine backup) the only thing I need to do is to plug in Time Machine to my new MacBook and it would start backing up where it left of, but it doesn't happen that way. It creates a new backup file. It has the same computer name but it appends a number "1" to the name to differentiate it from the original.
Please help
Thanks

You should have used Setup Assistant, not Migration Assistant, to transfer your data. I suggest you start over by booting into Recovery, erasing the startup volume, and installing OS X. When you reboot, Setup Assistant will start automatically. Follow the prompt to import data from a Time Machine snapshot. The backup history will then be inherited. The first backup will still be a full one; that can't be avoided.

I am trying to load LR on my new macbook pro. It asks for the serial number. I enter the digits, but it says, quote, " This is an upgrade serial number. The serial number from your previous version of Lightroom is also required."

If you still have the old computer and it is a MAC, the Lightroom 5 serial numbers are in a text file.

I want to restore the preinstalled OS X Maverick on my new MacBook after upgraded installed Yosemite gets stuck at load bar

Hi,
After my free upgrade to OS X Yosemite
on my new MacBook with preinstalled OS X Maverick,
the MacBook starts with the new colorful Yosemite-Screen
and I can login to my MacBook-Account succesfully;
but then, after my password is accepted
the Yosemite load_display_line loads to a 1/3 only and the Yosemite stucks at this point.
As offered during my tries to fix the problem on the MacBook,
I had my MacBook checked by Apple
and received the code for "no problems, my MacBook is alright": ADP000.
Is somebody here who knows how
to restore the preinstalled OS X Maverick on my new MacBook
after the upgraded installation of Yosemite?

Here's how:
Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer.

My ipod is not recognized on a new computer after old one crashed. I have painstakenly restored all songs and playlists. I deautorized all, and the reauthorized new computer. It won't sync.

My ipod is now recognized on a new computer after old one crashed. I installed itunes on the new computer, and have painstakenly restored all songs and playlists. I also purchased several new songs from the itunes stores. Now my ipod will not sync with the new computer. I deauthorized all computers, then reauthorozed the new one. My ipod still won't sync.

...after running diagnostics through itunes, itunes says "device not found" Seems there are a lot of others having this problem,and it seems to be related to new version of itunes. Apple should do something to fix this.

how should i connect my new macbook air to lcd projector for presentations?

One of these should work, depending on the projector. Just note both will not allow you to play protected movies on the projector.

I have started migration système to transfert from hold Macbook pro to New MacBook air application starter successfully for several hours. But since more than 3 hours I got the message transferring Time zone paramètres with time left less than 1 minute.

Hi
I have started migration système to transfert from hold Macbook pro to New MacBook air
Application starter successfully for several hours.
But since more than 3 hours I got the message "transferring Time zone paramètres " with time left less than 1 minute.
Any recommendation or suggestion to solve it ?
Many tanks

If it has run for 3 hours it's probably done and you can quit Migration Assistant and reboot the new computer. In the future rather than using Migration Assistant I would recommend using Startup Assistant which tends to be a bit more reliable and does not create a new user account as MA does. If you're interested here is an article explaining Setup Assistant tips.

List of equipments sent out for repair

Hi friends,
we are sending some equipments outside to vendor for repair. In some cases the vendor provides a stand-by equipment until the equipment is repaired.
My requirement is to list the equipments that have been sent to vendor for repair and the list of stand-by equipments in the plant.
How can i do these?
Thanks in advance
Vivek

hi Vivek,
You can create User statusues and maintain this. For eg. 'SENT' can be created to mark those equipments which are sent outside for repair. Once you receive the equipment back from Repair you can change the status to AVLB (Available). As far as identifying the temporary equipments are concerned, you can create a separate Equipment category with a different no. range and create some equipments under this Category. Whenever you receive such equipment, you can identify this vendor suppplied equipment thru' one of this equipment no. and do installation in the respective FL. With this you can track both the sent equipments and the temporary equipments.
Regards,
Bala.

Is there anyway I can find out if Apple have received my iPhone that I sent in for repair. Sent by post on 24/11/2014 and so far have heard nothing from Apple and repair status is still showing that empty box has been dispatched only.

You would need to contact Apple care about that. This is a user to user forum.

Internet access for new MacBook and old iMac

I put part of this question under "Using your MacBook" and have received what may be the answer to connecting my new MacBook with my old G3 iMac. But as I was describing that situation, something else occurred to me.
Is it possible to connect both an AirPort station, allowing me to use the MacBook anywhere in the house, and my iMac to the same cable modem, which of course has a single Ethernet port? Is there some sort of Y-connector or router that I need to do that? Or maybe that's breaking the rules of my ISP -- I'm using a Comcast connection to access Earthlink and .Mac.
Thanks for any advice.

Yes, that is how a combined wired/wireless router works, you have 3 wired ports on the Airport Extreme Base Station, and can also use wireless Airport simultaneously. you hook the incoming Ethernet source from the cable modem to the router. Linksys, Netgear, D-Link all make similar wired/wireless routers that are compatible with PC and Mac, with different features, number of ports, max number of wireless connections, etc. The Airport works great and comes with a Mac OS X configuration utility Airport Utility that makes configuring it fairly easy. You can make the wireless network private, password protected, and encrypted for security of your network.

Need to authorise new laptop after old one crashed. Have 5 computers already authorised and cannot wait until July for 12 month "Deauthorise all computers" to become available again. How can I authorise this new laptop?

Hello... I need to authorise a new laptop after my old one completely died (before I could deauthorise it!!). I have 5 computers already authorised and cannot wait until July for the 12 month "deauthorise all computers" option to become available again. Does anyone know how can I authorise this new laptop as one of the 5, in place of the old one? Any help gratefully received!

Go to one of the authorized computers and de-authorize it individually.
The one year limitation is ONLY for the de-authorize all option.

Excite sent out for repair 07-24-12 the day after purchase

I bought a excite 10 32g and it loaded up to a test tool screen right out of the box so I called Toshiba for help ,After 3 phone calls Toshiba told me to return the tablet to where it was purchased or send it to them for repair with a 7 day turn around time So I called the online retailer and they told me id have to wait at least five days before there response team could get back to me about the return so I opted to spend the shipping money and send it to Toshiba because I thought id have my tablet quicker ...... Boy was I wrong it has been almost a month and Toshiba keeps giving me the run around about what the status of my brand new tablet is last this that was said to me was the repair depot will contact you in 72 hours .Once again yeah right its been a week no call no e-mail .
I can't even give a review on the tablet but I will say that Toshiba as a whole is terrible terrible terrible!!!!!

Can you PM me with the serial number?

MBP sent in for repair--trade displays?

I just had my 15" MacBook Pro sent in for the following:
- CPU Idle Whine
- Non 0 / 100 % Display Brightness Buzz
- Display Hiss (temporary fix was slight downward pressure on the display, above the iSight)
- Right Speaker Distortion
I posed the question to the Genius who was helping me:
"Could you leave a note for the repair technician to use a glossy display, if indeed they need to replace the display?"
You see, I bought my MBP before they had the option to ship with glossy displays, and after using my brothers MacBook, I was hooked on the qualities of the display.
Unfortunately, the genius entirely turned down my suggestion. He said that they always replaced things part-for-part, and that it was entirely impossible to even so much as leave a note suggesting this.
Any thoughts, or was my genius just giving me a hard time?

I have problems with the display and I bought it yesterday. I'm going to make sure I don't have to send it in since I bought this one to use while they're repairing the other one and I don't want to keep buying macbooks.
