Replacement OS X CD for MBP?

I bought a refurb MBP 2.16GHz from Apple in April and have loved it so far. It's a great machine. Now I'm ready to swap the existing drive for one of Seagate's 160GB drives, but I can't find the OS X install disk that came with the machine. I have the disks that came with my dual G5, plus the boxed copy of 10.4 I bought before that. Is there any way for me to get a replacement x86 install disk?

You can get the replacement MBP CD for free by calling Apple. I lost my powerbook cds before and got a replacement eventhough my warranty has lapsed.

  • Hard Drive Replacement for MBP 17"

    Saw discussion on 15" MBP Hard Drive Replacement. I have 17" MBP which I purchased as it first came out almost 3 years ago and it has a 100GB hard drive. This has never been of adequate size. What sort of drive can I use in my MBP to get maximum storage? And, what about my Apple Care policy if I install the hard drive myself? I think the Apple Care policy was for 3 years? I purchased the MBP about May 2006.
    Where do I purchase the drive for this MBP - and which HD make might be best - or good?

    If you bought your MBP in May of 2006, your warranty will be ending in a month or two, so you can just wait until it has ended. An AASP can replace the drive for you sooner if you don't want to wait, and your warranty will remain intact except for the drive itself, which will now be covered by the manufacturer's warranty instead, usually 3 or 5 years.
    You don't necessarily void your warranty if you do the work yourself, but you do run the risk that some other problem would be blamed on the unauthorized repair and consequently not be covered. There has been a great deal of discussion on this topic.
    One thing to check when buying your drive--check to see if it has its own version of the sudden motion sensor. Preferably, get one without, since the MBP has its own sudden motion sensor built in. (This can be disabled if you happen to get a drive that has one.)
    Good luck!

    I've just purchased a new 2014 15" MacBookPro to replace my much missed 17" MBP. I got the works: OS 10.9.4, 2.8GHz Intel i7, 16GB memory and a 1 TB SSD, but despite the expense, I still don't have a computer that works...
    The problem is that every time I try to open any program from Office 2011, I immediately get the following window, for example for Word: "Microsoft Word has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." This happens each and every time I try to open Word or other Office 2011 component.
    Thinking it might be a licensing issue, I purchased and downloaded a new copy of Office 2011 from Amazon and installed it on my new MBP. Same issue once again.
    I tried to remove all copies of Office 2011 from the MBP, but the instructions provided by Microsoft required about three page and seventeen steps and the page was somehow corrupted and would not print in its entirety, nor would it e-mail as anything other than a link to the corrupted page. Not trusting my memory, I decided not to try this without adult supervision.
    I used Disk Utility to repair Disk Permissions, as described on an existing thread regarding the same problem, but to no avail.
    I removed and later replaced the "Microsoft User Data" folder from the Documents folder, but that was no help.
    I have copied the short version of the "Microsoft Error Reporting log version: 2.0," below, for those of you with a deeper knowledge of the internal workings, or non-workings of things Mac when crossed with things MS.

    Surely others have encountered and solved this same problem, and I'm hoping they can help me do the same. I don't know if this is a known issue or simply a matter of my having bumbled naively through a process far more complex than I was led to believe.

  • Will Apple replace my Logic Board for free?

    Sounds crazy I know. But I read a bunch of different threads on many sites saying they replace it for free and some say they don't. Let me explain why I believe I shouldn't pay to get this repaired. Since I bought my MBP I've had problems from it. When I got it I kept getting the message saying...you need to restart your computer...otherwise known as a Kernal Panic. I took it to apple , they couldn't find the problem so they replaced the hard drive for free. This didn't fix the problem but I did not feel like having to continue to take my computer to apple because I do all of my work on my computer so I really didn't the time and I just worked around it. Just recently my computer has began to shut off randomly while using certain programs such as Chrome and Apple Motion. After putting a thread on here I've learned that this is a kernel panic once again but being caused by the logic board. Now I don't know if I received a faulty computer but day one I've been having these problems. Which is the reason I'm asking will Apple repair what wasn't caused by the user?
    I need to add that I love Apple and their products, I've had and have many computers and other devices from them that function flawlessly. This MacBook Pro is the only thing I'm having a problem with.
    Thanks for any help that anyone one can provide.

    Took me a little bit to get this posted becuase i just had another kenrmal panic, but here it is.

  • Using a g drive external portable for MBP for an iMac

    My Lacie that backs up my iMac is full. I usually just replace one with another, but I have a G Drive 500 GB Portable for MBP I don't use anymore. Can I attached that to an iMac? The iMac is not crucial to my life as my MPB is. Question really is: an external, is an external, is an external drive.  Correct? And it's perfectly OK to use an external drive, portable or not with an iMac.
    Thanks for any help.

    Yes your assumption is correct, you can use the external drive with your iMac even though it's a portable drive.

  • What is the ideal resolution combo for MBP 13" and Projector?

    In our school district we are using 13" MacBook Pro's (OS X 10.7 Lion) and external epson projectors, projecting to a Promethean Smart Board. The default resolution for a MBP is 1280X800, that is a no brainer. Now everything I've been reading says that projectors like to be on 1024X768. When we do that the projector resolution dictates that resolution to the MBP screen and the MBP screen is of course distorted. They don't play nice when trying to set independent settings. We've found that 1280X800 for MBP and 1280X960 for the projector works best. When set at these settings and you plug and unplug the VGA adapter the settings on the MBP hold to 1280X800. But we have to keep calibrating the Promethean Smart Board though inbetween plugging and unplugging the VGA adapter's. Any ideas?

    Try setting up the projector at 1024x768 as it calls for, but you want to use the best image. This might require a resolution reset as you are dealing with 3 different viewing sources. (ahh, if only they would come up with a standard.
    You can try a pram reset with everything up and running, this can sometimes correct distortions.
    NVPRAM reset:
    Power down the mac, power it back up, before the start up chime, press and hold the following keys:
    option,command,P,R,(no commas) and continue to hold these keys till you hear the start chime 2 times. See what you have. You might have to reboot.
    Also you can try connecting the projector, fire up the mac then the projector, it might auto-detect. You can try system preferences click detect displays,
    As for the smart board, you would have to contact the manufacturer for details.
    I know I have not offered much here, but it's worth a try, can't hurt anything.
    Also, if you plan to contact the Community in the future, please ammend your profile with the model and OS you are using, as it could help you get more info.
    Does your IT person have  stuff locked out? Most school districts have many of the useful tools locked out.
    The reason I know this is my wife is a school teacher, and we end up doing most of her multi media stuff on one of our personal computers, because of the lock down imposed on the entire staff.
    I hope there is something that might help you here. If not get your IT person to make it happen.(If they can)

  • Does anybody knows where can i buy a replacement AC power cable for my cinema display 27"?

    Does anybody knows where can i buy a replacement AC power cable for my cinema display 27"?

    It may not be the same molded plug but I would think any normal 3-prong computer power cable should work.
    How about this one?
    922-6529 Power Cord - Apple Cinema Display
    I've always had the theory that if you put two computer power cords in a drawer they will breed and you'll end up with a lot more!   My parts drawer is always full of them.  They like to knot up by themselves as well!  Maybe that's how they breed.

  • The battery for my macbook pro 13 says "service battery".  Now I want to get a replacement but the reviews for it are horrible! Does anybody have any suggestions?

    The battery for my macbook pro 13 says "service battery".  Now I want to get a replacement but the reviews for it are horrible! Does anybody have any suggestions? I don't want to spend 130 dollars on something I'm going to have to replace in less than a year (which is what normally I been reading)  I do design work and I take my mac everywhere.  Having to always look for a plug or having to be constantly plugged in doesn't sound ideal to me.  Please help me. what should I do???

    Why does it matter if it a scam????? I'll let you figure that out by yourself.  If I'm going to replace it, why should I be contempt with a battery that I have to replace within months (as stated by some people in the comments). The issue here is not if I should or not replace it OBVIOUSLY I'm going to have to before it starts going crazy.  The underlying issue is why is the replacement battery for a lack of better words " a bit crap."  It comes with a 3 month guarantee?? Is that a joke?!??!?! Some people complained it malfunction after only 8- 9 months? I'm sorry but as an Apple fan I think it's absolutely rubbish. I know there is no magic cure I'm just hoping someone shines the light on how crappy this replacement is.

  • I just replaced the hard drive for my Mac Pro, and I am trying to restore what is on my Time Capsule, but it wont connect, and only is giving me the pinwheel of death. What do i do?

    I just replaced the hard drive for my Mac Pro, and I am trying to restore what is on my Time Capsule, but it wont connect, and only is giving me the pinwheel of death. What do i do?

    You will need to boot from some alternate boot device to accomplish this, if you did not initialize the drive before installing it.
    If you have another Mac, you may be able to use FireWire target disk mode.
    If your MacBook has a DVD reader and you have a Mac OS X Installer/Utilities DVD, such as the one that shipped with it, you can boot from that DVD, answer only the "what Language" question, and wait a quarter minute for the MenuBar to be drawn. Then examine the Utilities menu or the Installer menu and Find Disk Utility.

  • Apple Care plan for MBP

    Does anyone know why the Apple care plan for MBP is more expensive than all the other Apple care plans? Even the Mac Pro has a cheaper plan. It doesn't make sense to me.

    It's obvious to me. My Mac Pro sits in one place, undisturbed. It has a generous, efficient cooling system. It's easy to service.
    My MacBook Pro is carried around town. It's jostled back and forth in my bag as I walk, or as my car goes over bumps. I'm always putting it on tables, creating a slight impact each time. It goes through a lot more power/temperature cycles as it sleeps and wakes. The components are smaller, tightly packed, more expensive to disassemble and service. A laptop goes through a lot more stress and trauma than a desktop, so a laptop is much more prone to failure.

  • Video Player for MBP

    Hi,

    VLC can play DivX videos. Here is a complete list of all the codecs supported by VLC:

    One note: avi is a file format, not a specific video encoding algorithm. For example, you can have an avi file that contains a Divx video, or an avi file that contains an mpeg video.

  • Can apple replace my ipod touch for free if its stops working

    can apple replace my ipod touch for free if its stops working, because i havn't had it even for one year yet.

    Home Button wrote:
    As long as it's under warranty (The warranty is 1 year unless you have AppleCare) they will replace it for free if the iPod had an issue that was not caused by you.
    Apple will replace an iPod that is still under warranty if it has a manufacturing defect. That's not the same thing.

  • Can someone let me know if this is true, ive read that iphone are replacing the 3gs 8gb for the iphone 4 8gb is this at all true?

    can someone let me know if this is true, ive read that iphone are replacing the 3gs 8gb for the iphone 4 8gb is this at all true?

    You do realize that this article ( form August -beofore Apple announced the new iphone) was simply speculating on what the next iphone to be released would be.
    You do not have to guess any longer.  Apple has allready released the iphone 4s.
    You seem to be very confused about what this is saying.
    This article simply guessed that maybe iphone was going to announce a new cheap iphone at the conferance which happend a couple of months ago.
    We now know that this was completely wrong.  Apple released the iphone 4s.
    The article does not mean that they would give iphone 3gs users a iphone 4 as  a replacement.  It meant that they would not make 3gs any longer and would now make a cheaper iphone 4 instead.
    We now know that this was incorrect.
