Re-register a second/third hand product

Hi,
i have bought a Macbook Pro third hand. I can't register it, because it maybe is still tied to the Apple ID of the original first owner, whom i have no contact to. I have no other proof of purchase than it's appearance in my iCloud and that i am using it with my Apple ID in the store.
Will it still be possible to convince the Apple support to re-register it with my ID? Are there any disadvantages for me if i won't register it, maybe when it needs repair or something similar?

On the bottom of your MBP is the serial number.  Enter it here and post back the model/year information:

essentially you will have to erase the HDD and reinstall the original OSX.
The current ID will prevent you from updating the MBP whenever updates are avaialble.  Reinstalling the OSX will allow you to create your own ID.

  • How to register a second hand iphone to My Support Profile

    how to register a second hand iphone to My Support Profile, when i do this, it shows that this phone have already registered by others. but i cannot contact the owner before, what can i do?

    It appears that the seller did not do what he was supposed to do.
    First of all, if it is out of warranty, registering it will not help you necessarily as you will have to pay for any tech support. However, you can always take it to your nearest Genius Bar and the diagnostic/troubleshooting will be free. Second, unless the seller removes it from his registered products list on the website, there is nothing you can do unless you know his Apple ID and password.
    Now, in order to get rid of his Apple ID on your computer, you will need to completely erase the hard drive. You will need to use internet recovery for this so you can wipe it and then download the original OS and associate that with your own Apple ID. Boot up holding Command + Option + R until you see a spinning globe. It will eventually connect to Apple's servers (+/- 15 minutes); once you see the Utilities window, use Disk Utility to erase the drive. When finished, back to the screen, choose to reinstall OS X. That should result in a factory fresh install which you can set up with your own ID.
    Remember to back up your files first as you will lose everything.

  • Registering a second hand ipod 4

    i bought a used ipod touch 4th gen on ebay a few months ago. when i connected the cable to my computer it recognised the device as a camera. i looked online for an answer and realised that there is a version of windows which recognises the new ipod as a camera. i also found that i needed to get the latest version of windows and make sure the ipod was registered. i've downloaded the latest version of windows, but i have no idea how to register a second hand ipod.

    What do you mean "register"?
    Open itunes store, connect ipod, choose what you want to sync, sync.

  • Sidebar missing from iCal in Lion - seeking a third party product to restore lost functionality

    Apple has removed the sidebar, the always-on list of calendars that required no click.
    The shallow popover that appears only when clicked — obscuring part of the calendar before disappearing — is to me (and some others) an unacceptable substitute for working with multiple calendars, especially where calendars are grouped across multiple servers.
    I'm aware of third party alternatives to iCal. (Most full-featured calendar interfaces do have an always-on full-height list of calendars. Probably the best known alternative to iCal is BusyCal.)
    This topic does not seek alternatives; I do wish to continue using iCal, albeit in a way that is less frustrating than what Apple forces upon users of 10.7.
    This topic seeks:
    a third party product that will restore lost functionality to iCal.
    To any developer who reads this topic: please, I beg you, on my knees, submit your iCal sidebar app — or whatever you wish to call it — to the App Store as soon as you can. I'll gladly pay, and more than gladly help to test any pre-Store development version.
    Other readers please note: whilst I'm extraordinarily frustrated by Apple's design decision, this is not an invitation to rant. Let's gain something constructive from this discussion.
    If you wish Apple to restore the sidebar to iCal, as an option, then please:
    submit iCal feedback to Apple, with your use case; explain why for you personally the limited disappearing popover is a poor substitute; explain how the sidebar will improve both (a) your productivity and (b) your appreciation of Apple's software.
    Side note: no category includes iCal, so I file this opening post under Using Mac OS X v10.7 Lion.
    Thank you

    the new way
    Many things in the new iCal are beautifully designed. I am certain that the new iCal will be enjoyed by people who use the new multi-session screen sharing for Mac OS on iOS (that should be a separate topic).
    iCal's aqua popover default may be perfect for people who have only a handful of calendars.
    Critically
    The new design fails completely to offer an always-on full-height list of calendars — invaluable when working with more than a handful of things.
    The screenshot below, taken whilst evaluating BusyCal, shows a subset of my list of calendars (more than the average user, that's why an always-on list is so valuable). In shot: three accounts on a CalDAV server. I have other, lesser used accounts on other CalDAV servers. Also some use of Exchange servers. My own case is extreme but there's a guiding principle for a variety of use cases:
    some users need to see the list of calendars all the time.
    What's exmplified below has become impossible in iCal 5.0 (1535) in Mac OS X 10.7 (Build 11A511).
    I plead with Apple, or a third party developer, to restore the sidebar list of calendars to iCal.
    Apple's limitation is acceptable when the user has only two calendars —
    — but for some other classes of user, completely inappropriate.
    The percentage of users troubled by the loss of functionality may be less than the percentage enjoying the popover, but that in itself does not reduce the trouble, the frustration.
    The sidebar was present in 10.4, removed in 10.5. Many users of 10.5 complained.
    The sidebar reappeared in 10.6. Removal in 10.7 is almost completely dumbfounding.
    I would like to say, "give it time — the more you use it, the more it will be appreciated" but for me this is not true. For some weeks I tried to work with this build of iCal and the more I used it, the greater the frustration. I grew to avoid iCal.
    In most ways the feature set of iCal is unequalled. Support for many standards is excellent. The removal of the sidebar is a blight on this brilliance.
    I plead with Apple or a third party developer to fix this at the earliest opportunity. I want Apple iCal — but user-friendly, not crippled.

  • Registering a second node - ISE 1.2

     Hi guys,
     I am trying to register a second node to my primary ISE node. But, I am getting the following error:
    Unable to authenticate ISE xxxx.. Please check server and CA certificate configuration and try again. 
      I did de import/export certificates in both ISEs. 
    They can ping each other by IP and FQDN.
    Timezone are the same but I have not NTP active yet.(I thing this can be the problem , although they have the same time ) 
    I did the import/export in " Local Certificates" tab. I did not use "Certificate Signing Request" .
    Anybody know if something has change in ISE 1.2 and now Local Certificates no longer works ?
    I also can´t add my ISE to AD, but, this is another fight.
    Any hint will be appreciated!

     I have found this information here :
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/ise/1.0/user_guide/ise10_dis_deploy.html#wp1053327
    •You can alternatively create an administrator account on the node that is to be registered and use those credentials for registering that node. Every ISE administrator account is assigned one or more administrative roles. To register and configure a secondary node, you must have one of the following roles assigned: Super Admin, System Admin, or RBAC Admin. SeeCisco ISE Admin Group Roles and Responsibilities for more information on the various administrative roles and the privileges associated with each of them.
     Looking at Adminstration>Admin Access>Administrator>Admin User  The default admin created is part of the Superuser admin only. That´s why I created a second user admin an put him on the groups above.
     Keep in mind that this actions is necessary only on second node and will used only during the registration.

  • Advantage of using SAP product over third party products

    Hi All,
    I want to know whether there is any advantage of creating SAP product over the third party products in SLD.And if we want to remove Product at later stage can we do that ?
    Thanks,
    Amit

    Hi Amit,
    Are you talking about creating an SAP product under SLD? For client developements it is suggested to create only 3rd party products in SLD for developing the interfaces.

  • Exadata Database Machine & Third Party Products

    Is there a document which lists out which Third Party Products are specifically allowed on the Exadata DB Machine? I am interested in CA Autosys, which is our enterprise scheduler.

    There is no specific certification program for software on Exadata database servers, just a general recommendation to limit it to low-impact tasks like monitoring agents. Kernel-level modifications or third-party software on storage servers are not permitted.
    I'm actually working on an Exadata implementation including AutoSys at the moment, and so far have found no problems with it.

  • SE80 third party products

    Hello,
    If A-X is reserved for SAP AG and Z and Y are for customers, what is the naming convention for packages over third party products (eg. SOD tool like Virsa). Is "/" (forward slash) used for these? If so, is this a must or is this just the general practice?  Thanks in advance.

    Salim,
    Third Party products go under their own name space, like /VIRSA/
    Changing these objects would still be a repair.
    Go to - Se03->Administration-> Display/Change Namespaces. here you can can view all the namespaces in the system.
    For additional info - refer to SAP help.

  • HealthKit Compatibility of Third Party Products

    Hello,
    With iOS8 being released in two days I'm curious about support by third party products for the new HealthKit framework.  I've seen statements about Health app and HealthKit supporting standard bluetooth medical devices but I don't know what "standard" is (any LE BT 4.0?  specific bluetooth communication standards used by medical devices?).  I've also seen many references to support by third parties like WiThings but the context is never clear to me as to whether that's an example of the type of companies that could integration; that they've announced they WILL integrate; and/or whether that applies to future product releases or existing devices.  I'd like to pick up a few products to work with this new framework but right now I lack clarity as to which (if any) current devices will have this support.  I don't want to throw everything away in six months when the wave of actual HealthKit supporting devices come out (or natively supporting of the Health app versus having to keep using the menagerie of other apps to pass data back and forth through Health).
    Anyone have insight on who does or does not support this?  Is the an equivalent to MFI that is a HealthKit specific certification?
    Thanks!

    still technically an accurate response but doesn't get me where I'm hoping to go
    I've done some searching and didn't find anything but I'm appealing to the discussion forum in case anyone else knows of anything or has better search skills than I. 
    So, we've established that Apple doesn't have a big list, that's OK.  We all agree that manufacturers would probably have this data somewhere they control.  Here are some more specific questions that I hope clarify what I'm after:
    Is anyone aware of third party manufacturers that have stated HealthKit or Health app compatibility in their current product line?  (press release, statement on web site, have it on good authority, etc...)
    Does anyone know if Apple has claimed support for a specific BlueTooth protocol for their native support of BT medical devices in either HealthKit or Health app?  Looking for the possibility to just select any device that adheres to that specific BT protocol.
    Is there any certification that third party manufacturers have/will obtain for items that are compatible with HealthKit or Health app?  (a la MFI)
    Thanks!
    PS Meg: I hope this doesn't sound snarky, I appreciate you taking time to respond.

  • What is the second, third, etc. next-hop address in the route-map set command for?

    Hi,
    You may get your answer in below link
    http://www.groupstudy.com/archives/ccielab/200812/msg00999.html
    First next-hop will be used unless until that is not unreachable. If first is unreachable, then next one will be used. Since these next-hops are directly connected, router can easily come to know whether they are active or not. In case you want to set some loopback ip as next-hop then you need to use keyword recursive "set ip next-hop recursive"
