Question about Apple Rev. B Macbooks...

If you bought a Rev. A Macbook, when the Rev. B comes out does apple let you exchange and upgrade to the new ones for free?

As long as you are within the 14 day return and exchange period, Apple has let people exchange their for the new models.
That may change, but this is the way it has been done in the past.

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 on the page that you posted from should let you reset them : go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account, then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

  • Two questions about apple mail

    hey everyone. i'm getting to learn a little more about apple mail these days; smoothing out Gmail IMAP synching and whatnaught. i've stumbled into the mail directory on my macbook and had some questions.
    1. the "mail downloads" folder (home/library/mail downloads). what is the significance of this folder? in the preferences, i have my default downloads saved to the main "downloads" folder. yet there is a random number of files in there; i don't think they constiute the totality of every message i've received that has a file to download, so what is the logic of those files? if i delete them will the downloads not be available from individual mail messages any longer?
    2. i see some older IMAP mailboxes for two accounts that i don't even have access to any more. they don't, however, show up on the mail app itself. is there some way to reintegrate these mailboxes (just for archival purposes, and the ability to see their messages) into the mail program?
    thanks so much!
    quin

    Aaron,
    The Mail Downloads folder contents are redundant to what is kept with the messages. The most typical ways that content results in that folder are:
    1) quickly clicking the Save button on a message, rather than using a click-hold to then have the option to choose a target location of the Save;
    2) you open an attachment with another application. There Mail Downloads is only meant to be a temporary storage location. Attachments are kept as originally received with the message itself. Also, in the more recent version of Mail, it is redundantly kept in a folder within the INBOX.mbox folder named Attachments -- this is a behind the scenes behavior. It first appeared only for IMAP mailboxes, but more recently in Mail 4.x is also the case with a POP account. If unedited, then depending how you have your preference set up, attachments may be removed when Mail is quit, etc.;
    3) Mail in 10.5.x and 10.6.x seems to require the Mail Downloads folder to be created, rather than use the Downloads folder. The latter is mostly used as the location of items you click to load from a remote server, whether in a Browser or in Mail.
    With respect to your old IMAP account folders or mailboxes, where have you found them? I would assume any old IMAP accounts have been deactivated in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Advanced if in the Mail folder, but not showing in the Sidebar to Mail? It would problematic to activate an IMAP account if it can no longer contact the IMAP server. Any xxxx.imapmbox folder can be dragged from the Mail folder (after quitting Mail) to say the Desktop, renamed as xxxx.mbox folder, and then back in Mail imported to be an On My Mac mailbox for archival.
    More info, please.

  • Two questions about my "new" used Macbook

    Hello everyone,
    I recently bought a Macbook for my wife from craigslist. It is a early 2008 model (http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook/stats/macbook-core-2-duo-2.2-white -13-late-2007-santa-rosa-specs.html). I have two questions regarding its use.
    1. I know a video adapter is available for these computers. Is there a cable that can connect the video out on the macbook to a TV that has only a RCA input?
    2. I noticed (a little late) that the mouse button on the trackpad is a little chintzy. It takes quite a bit of effort to press the button and it appears to stick a little. I currently have the trackpad configured to accept clicks, however I would like to fix the button if possible. Has anyone had any success with changing the mouse button?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the response. I went to the apple store and picked up the cable yesterday. It works perfectly. I cleaned the area around the trackpad button a little and it seems to have eased a little. I will try putting the piece of paper in there and see if it gets better.
    I have a follow up question regarding the video out to a CRT TV. Does anyone know what resolution works best for this kind of low-tech TV? I tried 800X600 and 1024X768 last night and neither one seemed TV-like. Should I try a lower resolution? I am trying to stream hulu from my computer directly into my TV.
    Thanks.

  • Questions about buying a new MacBook pro with SSD

    Hello, I am about to buy a new MacBook pro. I'm going to get the 13 inch 2.8 dual core i7. I want a solid state drive also. I was going back and forth between the 128 gig or the 256 but I will probably get the 256. My computer will ship with lion but i am so confused about the TRIM support. Does lion take care of this? Dop I have to do anything like run a command or program to take care of TRIM?  Also, are solid states reliable? Should I get apple care? ( i really don't want to. Lol)

    I suggest you buy the notebook with the standard drive and the standard RAM, if you were thinking about upgrading the RAM.
    You can replace the original drive with a SSD at a lower cost then what Apple charges You can also buy RAM for a MUCH lower price.
    TRIM:
    Lion only supports TRIM natively when used with a Apple SSD. BUT, REALLY BUT, You can enable TRIM support yourself on the SSD you install. I have a SSD in my MBP that I installed and I have enabled TRIM support on it.
    Are SSDs reliable? As far as I can tell Yes they are. I have one in my Win 7 desktop PC for the last 9 months, No Problems. I have a SSD installed in my Dell Win 7 Notebook for the last 1.5 months, No Problems. I have a SSD installed in my MBP for the last month+, No problems. There are reports of SSDs failing but there are also report of standard hard drive failing all the time.
    I used Intel 320 series SSDs in my 2 Windows PCs and a Kingston V200 SSD in my MBP. I switched to the Kingston because of the price and it runs on the higher SATA III bus speed, 6GB, where as the Intel 320 series only run at the 3GB speed, SATA II.

  • Question about Hz difference between MacBook Pro and iMac?

    Some will think I'm crazy for saying this, but my new MacBook is driving me nuts.
    In a nutshell, I have tinnitus as a result of an accident some years ago. I can hear an intermittent high pitch sound coming from the back left of the machine. I used to hear a similar sound from old TVs back when I first got tinnitus. After some deduction I realised that it was to do (I think) with the fequency. I sold my old TV and brought a new one that was a 100Hz. My theory was somewhat confirmed when they delivered it and it was the 50Hz version and yes, the high pitch sound was very evident! Upon receipt of the 100Hz model and I immediately noticed the difference.
    I'm guessing then that the MacBook has something inside emitting 50-60Hz - someone on this forum mentioned that too.
    Although I want the portability, I can't stand that sound all day long, so I'm thinking of taking it back and swapping it for an iMac.
    The question is, will I find the same problem? I'm not sure of the technical specifications in terms of Hz's between the two machines.
    It's too noisy in the shop to tell.
    Any advice appreciated.
    PS - did not have this issue with my 2008 MacBook pro.
    PPS - makes no difference if it's plugged in or not.

    Isolating the source of the high frequency would take a technician with the instruments to deteermine what components emit sound...actually very easy to do with the proper test instruments, but essential to tell you what is causing the offending sound.  Unless you know that it will be very hard to determine if the iMac will not do the same thing.
    Only qualitative way to find out is go to an Apple store or reseller with a good selection of hardware, work with the different hardware and see if it bothers you.  Preferably with few people around and low background noise level so the sound isn't masked.

  • Question regarding apple tv and macbook pro

    i been having problems on connecting my macbook pro to my apple tv. I have the last vision of iTunes, also i have the iTunes account on my macbook, and on the apple tv and i also have already activated home sharing, but still i can't get it connected. what should i do?

    No. At any rate, Apple TV is a media streamer and all content would be available on Macbook directly so there would be no reason to do so.

  • Question about Apple's new iPad retina requirement.

    Apple recently made it a requirement that apps support all retina displays for both iPads and iPhones.
    What acceptable options are available in AIR for supporting the iPad Retina display and still meet Apple's new requirement?
    Here's my situation :
    I've been working on a universal app using AIR 3.6 that works well in all iOS resolutions other than for iPad retina (2048x1536).
    When building native support for the iPad retina resolution, the app performance is very poor (due to having to animate and manipulate such large bitmaps). The coding approaches that I've used are supposed to be good on performance, so I doubt that I can optimize things to the point where the performance would be acceptable using the larger art assets.
    In comparison, when I use an older version of AIR (3.2) and let the iOS compatibility mode automatically scale up the app to fill the 2048x1536 screen, the performace of the app is just fine (and looks almost identical).
    Would using this type of approach cause an app to be rejected by Apple now?
    It appears that AIR 3.6 added the ability to restrict just the the iPad high resolution (without restricting iPhones ) using :
    <requestedDisplayResolution excludeDevices="iPad3">high</requestedDisplayResolution>
    It seems that this would solve my performance issue, but I'm not sure if Apple's new "retina support requirement" would result in my AIR app being rejected if I used this approach to disable iPad Retina support.
    Does anyone know if Apple will now accept an app that was built with iPad retina support disabled through this approach?
    Another option that I've tried that may be a workable solution is :
    During launch when 2048x1536 resolution is detected, the app loads all of the 1024x768 art assets instead and then scales up the app by a factor of two (using scaleX = scaleY = 2).
    The above seems to generate acceptable performance. The artworks looks a little blurrier and less crisp using this approach due to the scaling, but is acceptable to me personally. As this is technically using "standard" resolution art assets and scaling them up, would taking this approach get rejected by Apple?
    I'm open to any other options/approaches/suggestions to adding iPad retina support that would allow me to address the performance issues on iPad retina and still allow my app to get approved by Apple. I'm just a little bit confused on what constitutes an app having "iPad Retina" support. Does the app just need to be compiled with a newer version of the iOS SDK to get through the approval process, or does this mean something else?
    Thanks.

    Seems like you have two options, if you are already scaling stuff down after launching at a higher res why not make it an option. Have a setting for "High Resolution" and one for "High Performance" the difference would is one would run in Retina mode and one would run in standard mode so users with iPad4 and iPhone5 could probably use the High Res but iphone 4 users can switch to the High Performance setting.
    The way I have dealt with it is design everything to a 1024 width and 640 height, this is standard Kindle Fire resolution but almost all devices crop the app in a way where all the key features fit on screen, I just had an app approved 2 days ago by Apple using this technique so basically I am running 1024 graphics on the retina screen, they look great (we are only humans and we can't make out every pixel despite what Apple thinks) and the performance is nice as well. I think they worry about apps being stretched for some reason when apple ups a 1024 app to a retina width using their software it looks horrible but if it is done by the developer it looks great. Download a non retina app and try it on a retina iPad or export your app for Standard resolution and check it out vs exporting for high.
    I think you will be fine either way.

  • One last question about apple tv!! viewing movies in movies folder

    thanks to those who have responded to my previous questions.
    thinking of buying an apple TV this weekend, but here's my last question (which I just thought of!)
    i've got a collection of movies in various formats, usually .mov or .dv of home videos i've made in FCE and iMovie over the years, some of them several GB in size (oops!)
    what's the best way of viewing these on the apple tv. for instance
    1. does apple TV let you look into your 'movies' folder in the home folder to play any movies it finds there
    2. will it play .dv or .mov files, or does it need to be a specific format
    3. i've noticed an 'export to apple tv' in quicktime pro, do i need to do this for all my movies before apple tv will play them. and after i do an 'export to apple tv' where do the files need to be? imported into itunes, or just sat in my 'movies' folder?
    cheers, looking forward to visiting the apple store tomorrow!

    1. does apple TV let you look into your 'movies' folder in the home folder to play any movies it finds there.
    No, the tv uses itunes for its source of movies.
    2. will it play .dv or .mov files, or does it need to be a specific format
    DV, no. MOV, maybe. MOV is a container type not a compression type, if the MOV container has the correct compression formats in it then it will play. Movies for the tv need to be either mpeg4/2 or mpeg4/10 (H264/AVC)
    3. i've noticed an 'export to apple tv' in quicktime pro, do i need to do this for all my movies before apple tv will play them. and after i do an 'export to apple tv' where do the files need to be? imported into itunes, or just sat in my 'movies' folder?
    Yes 'export to tv' will do the job for you. You need to be aware though that DV with the wrong field dominance will cause it a problem, and some cameras do use the wrong field dominance. It won't work with muxed files (mpeg2 for example) and on SD movies it can be a little wasteful on space. I've always used mpegstreamclip to convert from DV.
    Of course from now on you'll be using FCE with this in mind and exporting accordingly.

  • Question about installing leapord on macbook pro

    i have a macbook pro 2.4ghz and i am running mac osx tiger ( i think thats the one before leapord...) anyways i was wondering if i buy leapord and upgrade will i lose all of my information and files that i had before i installed it? someone please let me know. thank you

    I'd recommend you do an "Archive and Install" to avoid the more frequent problems folks have had with the "Upgrade" option. The "Archive and Install" for the most part will have your data and settings all preserved and migrated to the new system, but it will leave out third-party drivers and user-created system files (like colorsync calibrations) which you'll have to reinstall, recreate, or copy back from the previous system folder that's still on the drive. The Upgrade option does its best to handle third-party drivers and extensions, but if something goes wrong then you can have a very unstable system, and folks have complained about crashes when they've used the "Upgrade" option (at least moreso than other folks who've had problems).

  • Question about Apple ID/iCloud email/and purchases?

    Hi,
    I know that these have been discussed at length, but I want to ask these two question for myself to get a definite answer, Pleas help me!
    1. Does an iCloud email alisas act just as a regular email?  I can send from the new address, recieve email from people mailing to this new address, and sign into my content with this new address just as if it was the original one?
    2. I really want a new iCloud account to start over.  I have had an Apple ID for years before iCloud came out.  If I delete my iCloud account and create a new one, will it be integrated with all my past purchases?  Are the Apple ID and iCloud account sparate?  I want to keep my Apple ID, but be able to sign into it and access my purchased content from my new iCloud account?  Can this be done.
    I am really grateful!!

    An email alias will act just like you iCloud email address, and it will receive incoming mail at the same inbox. It will be added to your existing iCloud account/ID so you can continue to sign into your account with your current ID.
    Your iCloud ID is separate from your iTunes account ID.  You can keep your current iTunes ID and add a second ID for your new iCloud account; they do not need to be the same.  If you want to migrate your data to a new iCloud account, on your device go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account (this only deletes the account from the device, not from iCloud).  When prompted choos Keep on My [iDevice].  Then set up a new account with a different ID and turn your iCloud data syncing back to On, and when prompted, choos Merge to upload the data to your new account.
