Refurbished from canon,with 90 day limited warrenty.Has anyone purchased.Any thoughts on this?

Hello..Just wondering if anyone here has bought refurbished product,and your input on the subject. There is some good holiday prices on some of there cameras,but refurbished..From Canon directly

Like a previous poster said, other than the white box, there's not much different.  If the full-retail version of a lens comes with a hood and case, so does the refurbished version of the same lens when you buy from the Canon store.  Same goes with the lens hood.  
Those holiday prices are pretty good.  The discounts happen off and on through out the year.  I think they come in 15%-25% varieties.  But the inventory doesn't last very long.  If you follow blogs, some of them will relay the announcement of a discount's start.  Of the blogs I follow, http://www.the-digital-picture.com/News/ normally makes the first announcement.  You can add it to your RSS reader with http://www.the-digital-picture.com/News-RSS.aspx.

  • I'm having trouble with my iMessages registration. Has anyone had any problems after they downloaded the mountain lion King with that iMessages because mine is not linking to the computer and my phone

    Is anyone else having trouble after thy downloaded Mountain lion x with iMessages mine isnt linking to my computer because it keeps saying i have a  registration error. Has anyone else had this problem or know how to fix it

    HI,
    People who have had computer that has had the Logic/motherboard replaced during repair or refurbishment that has not has the Mac Serial Number Flashed to the board have found that iMessage in particular have not been able to "register".
    A current purchase of Mountain Lion will tend to give you the latest version which as of Thursday (12 th Mar) is OS X 10.8.3
    You can use System Information to find if the Serial Number is there as it appears under the Hardware section.
    If it is missing you need to get to an Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider who can flash the info to the board.

  • Firefox keeps crashing with crash signature CascadeRuleEnumFunc. Does anyone have any information on this?

    Doesn't seem to be related to any specific web page or action.

    When I connect the Mac directly to the modem it will connect. My other devices will not connect to the Mac when it's wired to the modem.
    When the airport is connected to the modem all devices and the Mac will connect to it.
    At some point, the airport will drop the internet connection, but the green ligjht on the airport stays lit. Diagnostics show it's not connected to the internet. iOS will connect to the network at that time, so will Mac, but none can acheive internet connection.
    My ISP is xplornet as I am rural Canada. Spoke to them yesterday and thier end shows I have a connection, so they asked me to power cycle the airport and it connected no issues. They also said if it happens again, as in drops during the night, that it's likely my router that is the issue. My signal is great, the waether is sunny and clear and nothing is blocking my reciever on the roof...and I am sad becasue I lubs the internets.

    Thank you.

    How did you get a Lion OSX install disc? They don't exist. Do you mean the gray disks that came with your 2007 MacBook?
    If you mean the gray disks, try starting up with the "c" key held down.
    What version of OSX is on your MacBook now? Have you tried booting from the Recovery partition?

  • I have paid and downloaded LION and want to update my IMAC, can i just run install and it keep photos settings etc from Snow Leopard or is a full reinstall with wiped hard drive, anyone have any experience of this and do i need to run a backup beforehand?

    Always backup your important data before upgrading to a new Mac OS X.
    Lion doesn't erase the drive but better to be safe than sorry.
    And run Disk Utility  (Applications/Utilities). Verify and if necessary repair the startup disk before upgrading.
    Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks
    Before upgrading read here >  Lion upgrade questions and answers:  Apple Support Communities

    "there is a problem with the Windows Installer Package" Does anyone know how I fix this??
    My itunes ends up being so out of date becuase I can never upgrade it.
    I have a sports kit and want to make sure I am using the most uptodate version
    I managed to delete the old version, just in case it was the fact it was about 10 versions out of date that was the problem but now I can't reinstall it at all......
    Please help

    Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:
    http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
    Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.

  • HT4623 I keep getting an error message "cannot connect to the internet."  Is this a problem with my internet provider, or has anyone else had this problem.

    I keep getting an error message "cannot connect to the internet."  Is this a problem with my internet provider, or has anyone else had this problem.

    I get that problem once in a while and I will not be able to connect to the Internet with any of the 5 or 6 (or 7 or 8 ) web browsers that I use on my iPad. The one thing that I do that has never failed to work for me is to close all apps on my iPad and reset the device. I can't guarantee that it will work for you, but this works for me every time I get the server failed to load/can't connect to the Internet message.... Or whatever the exact message is.
    If you have a ton of apps in the multitasking display, it can take a while to close them all, so you could just trey resetting the iPad first and that might be all that you need to do.
    Closing apps in iOS 7 works like this. Drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • I heard that there was a problem with Apple being vulnerable to Hackers. Has anyone seen an update for this issue? My IPad received the update last night but I have not seen anything for Safari.

    Mac OS X 10.9.2 was released today for this issue and others. Earlier versions are not affected.

    After following the instructions to reset my ipod classic i am confronted with a red cross. Does anyone know how to remove this?

    Hello theplantman5,
    Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPod only shows a circle and cross (or x) screen after resetting or restoring it, try placing it in Disk Mode and restoring it.
    Restore iPod from Disk Mode
    Disconnect iPod from your computer.
    Manually put iPod into Disk Mode.
    Open the latest version of iTunes and connect iPod.
    Restore iPod.
    If these steps don't work, or you've already completed them, your iPod may need service:
    Setup Service for iPod
    If you cannot force your iPod into disk mode and restore it, then your iPod may need service. Click one of the links below to setup an iPod Service Request online or make a reservation at the Genius Bar before visiting your local Apple Retail Store.

  • I HAVE ADOBE PREMIERE ELEMENTS 10.  I used to have many options on the "Disc Menu" to set up my DVD.. and now it is very limited..almost no templates. I try to sign in to my account through Premiere and it will never sign on.  Anyone have any thoughts??

    I HAVE ADOBE PREMIERE ELEMENTS 10.
    Problem #1   I used to have many options on the "Disc Menu" to set up my DVD.. and now it is very limited..almost no templates.
    Problem #2   I try to sign in to my account through Premiere and it will never sign on...just keeps acting like its trying to but never connects.  Anyone have any thoughts??

    With versions earlier than 11, there is no more Sign In. If you get any message to that effect, ignore and cancel out of them. You should be able to move forward to your import, editing, and exports using the program nonetheless.
    As for the disc menus, those marked photoshop.com plus members only are no longer available to you in versions of Premiere Elements earlier than 11. You may see the thumbnails for those members only items, but they are no longer available to you in Premiere Elements earlier than 10.
    Interestingly, many of them are found in Premiere Elements 11, 12, and 13 as part of the program with no need to purchase them or have any special membership in anything. Adobe has promoted Adobe Revel as a replacement for photoshop.com, but that has no impact on this disc menus issue.
    This all has to do with Adobe discontinuing photoshop.com and photoshop.com plus et al.
    If you need to download regular disc menus for Premiere Elements 10, please review the following
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE 7, 8, 9,10: Content Download
    Bottom lines:
    1. No more Sign In for Premiere Elements 10
    2. No access to photoshop.com plus (members only) disc menus
    Any questions or need clarification on anything written, please do not hesitate to ask.
    Thank you.
