Shipping laptop from US to AU

     Hi everyone!
So, I'm visiting Australia on a work and holiday visa for 7 months and my old laptop has just broken. I'm looking into purchasing a refurbished laptop from Apple.com. I was considering purchasing the laptop from the AU site but they don't have the same specifications as the one I want on the US store. (And seeing how I will be moving back to America I'd prefer to have one already with the US charger.)
My question is, would there be any way to purchase a refurbished laptop from the US and have it sent to an Australian Apple store? or if that's not possible if anyone has ever shipped a laptop over sea's and if that's a rational decision? (Keep in my the price differences are also atronomicly different.)
I have family in the states (Obviously) that would be willing to ship the laptop once it's mailed to them but A: worried about winter time in the U.S and B:Worry about the harsh heat in A.U.
Anyone's help would WONDERFUL.
I appreciate you taking the time to read my concern.
Thank's so much!
- Justin

Justin, you do not have to worry about heat. I have friends living in the tropics who are happliy using Mac laptops, with the temperature above 35 Celsius! And  just two weeks ago I shipped a Macbook to one of them. No hassles, but I did buy insurance to cover damage or theft.
You can buy your laptop in the US and use it in Australia (or just about anywhere else in the world) without any concerns about power. Apple even sells a travel kit to adapt the charger to the wall outlets in other countries.

  • I purchased I movie on Feb.15th 2014, and now when I go to update it, it's showing the apple i.d. of the previous owner of this laptop from two years ago. I can't update it on my computer? Help?

    If the tech didn't erase the Mac as I stated above, he hasn't properly prepared your Mac for a second hand owner. Nothing less that erasing the HDD and returning the Mac to the shipping version of OS X so you may set up the Mac as a new Mac will suffice. All Macs since the introduction of OS X lion have shipped with iLife apps from the Mac App Store installed for free. Prior to Lion, they shipped with the boxed version of the apps.

  • Printing Shipping labels from Ebay

    I can't figure out what discussion to put this in, hope I am in a good place to ask.
    I sell on Ebay. I want to print my shipping labels from the site.
    I have been trying to print First Class International  shipping labels from ebay. 
    I run a MAC OS X 10.6.8.  on a Mac Mini
    Firefox or Safari 
    I get a blank form. I downloaded the latest Adobe and adobe flash player. Is there a Java program that I need too? I have done all my apple updates.
    I have Javascript enabled on my preferences on both browsers.
    A yellow bar opens on the label page that says I need a plugin, but  I try to load new plug ins a window comes up with No suitable plug ins were found.
    When I check on both FF and Safari, I have Javascript enabled.
    I have asked on Ebay in 2 groups, and called ebay. No help, so thought I might find someone here who has been able to print labels from Ebay.
    Thank you for any suggestions.

    I am having the same problem... has anyone found a fix that actually works? I have been on tech support with Apple, Ebay and Paypal for hours each... am getting nowhere. I updated everything. I upgraded to LION on my desktop. International labels stopped printing. I was able to print them on my laptop till one morning when I turned macbook pro on it said there was updates ready, so I installed them. Then went to print the labels and even the laptop would not print them. I think it has something to do with the updates to safari that were just installed then.
    I don't know what to do... I can't keep going to the library to print my labels, I have a child and cant keep running out.

  • I am interested in buying a refurbished laptop from this website which is unavailable in my country.

    I live in Pakistan and I am interested in buying a refurbished laptop from this website which is unavailable in my country. Can I pay through my creditcard that i use here but get the product delivered to a relatives place in Canada? I REALLY want a Macbook Pro

    Apple will only ship to a verified billing/shiiping address in the country whose store you are using.

  • I am traveling with my macbook pro and I forgot to install final cut express and quicktime pro before I left. How can I in a way download them for free on my laptop from where I am

    I am traveling with my macbook pro and I forgot to install final cut express and quicktime pro before I left. How can I in a way download them for free on my laptop from where I am? I need them and don't want naturally to buy them again!!!
    Thank you    

    Assuming you purchased QT Pro, you can always download it again at no extra charge by logging in to your Apple account.
    Regarding FCE, there is no way to download & install the product.  You need an original FCE install disk and your FCE serial number.
    Final Cut Pro X (aka FCPX) can be purchased & downloaded from the App Store.

  • My iTunes wont close and is preventing my laptop from shutting down

    I plugged out my iPod touch when iTunes was asking me whether I wanted an update or not, and now iTunes wont close and has frozen, preventing my laptop from shutting down. I have intel Celeron inside and Windows 7.

    Mail is open but it is frozen, being this the reason why you cannot open the Mail window. Press Alt, Command and Esc keys or go to  > Force Quit, select Mail and force quit it. Finally, you will be able to turn off or restart the MacBook

  • I have an ancient laptop (from 2005) that has my entire music library. This laptop barely works and some keys don't type anymore. How can I get all this music transferred to another computer, or available to me on the cloud?

    No... do not move programs.
    About the iTunes library files
    Your iTunes library files track the media you add to iTunes, how you've organized it, and other information such as playlists. By default, these two files are in your iTunes folder:
    Mac OS X: /Users/username/Music/iTunes/
    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
    Windows Vista: C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes\
    Windows 7: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\
    Windows 8: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\

What has this got to do with Java anyway? My crystal ball says export the data from database A and import the results into database B. Without knowing which DBMS you are using, that is just about the best I can do. Google is your friend.

  • HT2305 Since updating my laptop from Windows Vista to Windows 7, my Ipod Shuffle, 3rd generation does not recognize last 3 playlist names; it calls them out as "playlist 3, playlist 4 -- even though in the panel the names are showing just fine. The music

    I have recently updated my laptop from Windows Vista to Windows 7. I have just added three new playlists to my Ipod Shuffle, 3rd generation. On the panel in ITunes in view on the computer, all looks fine and music plays. However, after syncing a million times, when clicking to "hear" the playlists, the voice will call out all the old playlists just fine - except for the 3 new ones I've added; it calls them out as "playlist 3, playlist 8, or "purchased". All software for the ITunes has been updated as of the moment. Why would switching from Vista to Windows 7 cause this frustrating issue? All help appreciated.

    From page 23 of your iPod's User Guide: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_shuffle_3rdGen_UG.pdf
    If VoiceOver is disabled in iTunes, you hear an abbreviated menu of playlists in numbered order, but not by name (for example, “Playlist 1, Playlist 2,” and so on).
    So you'll want to make sure VoiceOver is enabled to correct this.

  • Is there any way to restore deleted calendars back onto my laptop from my iPhone.

    I recently installed Maverick on my laptop and have been having trouble syncing my iphone calendars with my laptop calendars, like I used to.
    Like an idiot, and without any research, I joined iCloud thinking I could sync calendars this way. I didn't realize that it deleted my calendars off my laptop in creating my iCloud calendars. The syncing with my iphone still didn't work, and so again, like an idiot and without research, I deleted my iCloud account ot discover that all my calendars on my laptop are now gone.
    My iphone still has the calendars on it, (albeit old and out of date), so is there a way to restore the deleted calendars back to my laptop from my iphone or from the backup on my laptop.?
    Running Maverick on laptop and iTunes 11.1.3. iPhone is an older 3gs but fully updated running 6.1.3
    Please help.
    Thanks!

    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy it to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    ~/Library/Safari
    Quit Safari.
    Select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the Finder menu bar. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    A folder window should open. Restore the file named "History.plist" in that folder from a backup that predates the unwanted changes.

  • I want to change the sync on my laptop from my old iPhone 3GS to my new iPhone 4s,how do I do this?

    I want to change the sync on iTunes on my laptop from my old iPhone 3GS to my new iPhone 4s,how do I do this?

    maybe be more specific...
    you can sync multiple devices to the same itunes account on the same laptop.  Simply plug in the new iphone 4s and check off all the settings you want to sync (apps, music, playlists, books, videos, etc).
    If you want your iphone 4s to look exactly like your 3gs...
    1. do an icloud backup of your 3gs
    2. restore your iphone 4s to factory settings
    3. when setting up the phone, choose "restore from icloud backup"
    4. choose the most recent icloud backup (should display the date and time of the 3gs backup you just performed
    5. phone will load everything just as it is on the 3gs... onto the iphone 4s

  • HT204370 I downloaded an HD movie onto my laptop from i-tunes.  It plays fine on my laptop, but when I plug in my HD projector, the movie quits.  When I unplug the projector, the movie starts again. I have never had a problem with projecting an itunes mov

    I downloaded an HD movie onto my laptop from i-tunes.  It plays fine on my laptop, but when I plug in my HD projector, the movie quits.  When I unplug the projector, the movie starts again. I have never had a problem with projecting an itunes movie before this. Someone told me that i-tunes changed something so that movies can no longer be projected.  We have a home theatre and have watched movies this way quite regularly, so it would be a drag if Apple will prevent us from doing this in the future. 

    I don’t know about projection, but I’m unable to watch HD content in iTunes because my Apple 30-inch Cinema Display is not HDCP-compliant (which is part of an HD copy-protection scheme).
    The other movies you’ve projected, were they HD as well? If not, it could be the same problem: your projector is not HDCP-compliant.
