I just purchased a MacBook Pro Retina. Checked my OSX and it is version 10.8.1... trying to find a way to upgrade to a higher version. In the app store it doesnt show the update nor downloading the new Mountain Lion OXS doesnt work. Please help
hienn,
Not yet. There was an upgrade page to 10.8.2 for the late 2012 models but it's down now. I have to assume that Apple pulled it because of some bugs. I would look for something next week, more likely than not. In the meantime, the OP should be good with 10.8.1 until the update shows up again.

I've got a Macbook Pro 13" early 2011. The keyboard and its lightning doesnt work, neither isnt working anymore. I need to reinstall osx as its showing the folder with a questionmark. An USB keyboard doesnt work either.. Any suggestions?
Restart.
Try this. I know you said "keyboard is not working.
Reset SMC. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Choose the method for:

If this does not help, contact Apple.

When I switch my time capsule to 5.0ghz mode the range of my wireless network drops significantly. Near the Time Capsule my Macbook Pro works fine, in my bedroom I have almost no signal. In mixed mode it works fine both placed. Any ideas on how to get 5.0 working? I thought 5.0Ghz was supposed to have a wider range. Do I need to change a setting on the Macbook Pro?
Thanks, WI'm not sure if you understand that 5 GHz has some upsides, but also some very significant downsides.
The upside is that the 5 GHz signal will allow faster speeds.
The downside is that you must always give up something in order to gain something else.Unfortunately, the marketing hype about 5 GHz does not go into very many details about this.
In the case of 5 GHz, the 5 GHz signals are much weaker than 2.4 GHz signals, so they do not travel as far or penetrate any obstructions like walls or ceilings nearly as well as 2.4 GHz signals. In many cases, in order to get good 5 Ghz performance, you literally have to have almost a line-of-sight relationship between your computer and the wireless router.
If you have a new dual band router, which broadcasts both a 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz signal simutaneously, your Mac will connect to the best signal quality automatically depending on its location in relation to the router. In the same room, without any obstructions, it will connec to 5 GHz. But, take the laptop down the hall a few rooms and around the corner and the Mac will connect to the 2.4 GHz signal because at that location, the 2.4 GHz signal is not only stronger, it is also faster. -
Does macbook air work only 6 years?
I've heard that macbook air works only 6 years. Is it true?
Here's another tidbit ... note the original MacBook Airs which are now 4.5 years old will not be capable of running Mountain Lion when it comes out later this month. This is a typical behavior from Apple - note they're doing the same with the original iPad and iOS6.
This behavior is, of course, quite different from the machine simply no longer working after 6 years. But it's not expected that folks keep them that long. -
i reset my iphone 4 and its now stuck on the apple screen ive seen people saying push the top button but my doesnt work can anyone give me some advice please
I'm not looking for any warranty help or something, I just want a diagnosys of my phone's situation....
My phone is acting as if there was no battery in the phone. When there is no cable plugged, nothing happens. When there is a cable, something happens (not a lot though....).
Could it be the battery port on the motherboard that's down ?
PS : I've taken a Genius-bar appointment because I can't stand in that situation for years, so I'm not absolutely looking to gain money and avoid Apple's official help. -
when i make calls, all i can hear is static, and when i plug in headphones or turn the speaker on, it still doesnt work. but facetime, music, an apps sound still work. help? iphone 5
Hello Delaney1130,
It sounds like you are getting static on both the receiver and the speaker when you make a call. I would use the troubleshooting from the following article to help resolve the issue named:
iPhone: Troubleshooting issues making or receiving calls
https://support.apple.com/kb/TS3406
Toggle airplane mode: Tap Settings > Enable Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn off airplane mode.
Check your phone settings:
Check your Do Not Disturb settings: Tap Settings > Do Not Disturb.
Check for any blocked phone numbers: Tap Settings > Phone > Blocked.
See if Call Forwarding is turned on: Tap Settings > Phone > Call Forwarding.
Ensure that your software is up to date:
Check for a carrier settings update.
Check for an iOS software update.
Note: Some updates may require a Wi-Fi connection.
If the iPhone has a SIM card, reseat the SIM card.
If the iPhone 4 or iPhone 4s is on the Verizon network, dial *228 from the iPhone and select option 2 to update the Preferred Roaming List (PRL). The PRL determines the cellular towers the phone uses for cellular service, selecting those with the best signal strength.
Reset the network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Try to make or receive calls in another location.
Attempt to isolate to one network band:
If you're having the issue on LTE, disable LTE, if possible, and try again.
If you're having the issue on 3G/4G, disable 3G/4G, if possible, and try again.
Contact the carrier to check the following:
Your account is properly configured to use the specific iPhone that has the issue.
There are no localized service outages.
Your account doesn't have a billing-related block.
Your calls don't have errors on the carrier system.
Restore the phone as new.
If the above steps don't resolve the issue, go to an Apple Retail Store, carrier, Apple Authorized Reseller, or contact AppleCare to send the phone in for service.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling -

Macbook Internet works only on the stairs
Im new to this and this is a bit of a story so please bear with me..
Macbook 10.4.11 owned by my brother was re-called for battery issues about 4 years ago, when the macbook was returned, wifi would only be received in close proximity to the router. This issue has never been fixed and now i have 'inherited' the computer i want to get the problem sorted. I used the mac last year at university using an ethernet cable which was fine, but in 2 weeks i will be in a new house and want to be able to use wifi.
At the moment The macbook can only receive wireless internet on the stairs, not in my bedroom, the lounge, anywhere else. Other family members have ample wireless on their computers all over the house, so I believe it is not the router (SKY) which is the problem. My brother has taken the laptop to several university houses, and every-time, it will only work near the router. The guy in the apple shop said if the laptop wifi card (apologies for my lack of technical details) was broken, the internet wouldn't work at all, or would work randomly and in different areas of the house.
My first visit to the genius bar, the guy said it might be interference with neighbours wifi, and so he downloaded AP Tracker onto the macbook. On the stairs it picked up our internet only, above and below the stairs it cut off and picked up no other internet in the house. I presumed then that it wasn't to do with neighboring internet.
The second visit to genius bar, the guy said it might be some corrupt data and that i would need to back up the macbook and restore to factory settings and start again. I'm hesitant to try this as I have programs such as word and photoshop which I don't know if I will get back after the backup (do not have the installation disks). It seems a bit drastic for a process which might not even work.
If anyone has experienced this problem or can give me some help it would be greatly received as im getting a bit desperate. Also if I do need to backup and factory set my macbook, would I get photoshop, word e.t.c back without the disks. Thanks for your time.Hi melloncollie1,
Welcome to Apple discussions.
A similar thing happened to me with my ibook a few months ago and I was advised to lift the keyboard and make sure the Airport card was fitted correctly which it was but the aerial that plugs into the card was not fully engaging. So check that it is fully inserted. Mine gave quite a loud click when it did. It works fine now anywhere.
Good luck,

Macbook air works only when connected to the power cord. Battery condition: replace now.
i have MacBook Air
OSX 10.9.4
Processor 1.7 GHz Intel core i5
Memory 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Computer does not start without power supply and stops when the power cord is disconnected.
The battery condition: Replace Now
what do i do now?If you're still under Apple Care, it will probably be done for free.
You left no clues as to the model of your MacBook Air, so we don't know its age. -
I went in to apple, they couldnt figure it out, I am on AT&T so I was figuring on going into their store today and seeing if its something with the network, if not I am going back to apple, but this is literally a brand new phone i bought yesterday, not refurbished or anything, brand new, does anyone know why this isnt working? Everything else works fine, the mics both work, its just when I make calls or someone calls me the mic doesnt work.
When you see the same issue on more than one hardware device, it means that the problem is likely to exist outside of the hardware. Two things to investigate would be the software/firmware on the backup and issues with the cellular network. It's probably safe to rule out the cellular network as well.
First, make sure that you have imported copies of all the information (pictures, videos, documents) on the device. Do this thorough itunes, and the applications (photographic and document processing) on your computer. Perform a firmware update then restore the device as new. If the problem persists, then you may actually have the worst luck and discovered two devices with an identical issue.
Read each of the steps before initiating the DFU.
!. Connect the iPhone to any computer running a fully updated version of iTunes.
2. Press and hold both "home" and "sleep/wake" buttons
3. After eight seconds let go of only the sleep/wake button.
4. Keep holding the home button until you see a popup mesage in iTunes.
5. Read all all the popups, then use iTunes to update the iPhone's software.
If the popup fails to show, repeat steps 2 through 4 -
The strangest thing: My mac doesnt see ONLY Win7 cd
Hi guys,
Check this out: I bought parallels 5 and Win 7 home edition, in order to put on my mac. Parallels installation was nice and smooth, i created virtual machine and insterted Win 7CD. (official)
And here came the strangest thing: my mac doesnt see it! I ejected the cd, and put in other cd (in this case Starcraft 2), and voila it works, the install image pops up and i see the cd in finder. I put in this very Win 7 cd in the other mac...and it works, finder sees it and i can access it.
However when I put it back in my macbook pro, it keeps spinning it and seems to think its blank, cause iDVD pops up after 2-3 minutes. Parallels 5 doesnt see it, Finder doesnt see it either. What could be the problem? Any ideas welcome
P.S. just tried this Win7 cd on G5 (OS 10.4.6): no problem, took it to the shop and tried it on the shop's MBP: no problem. Tried inserting other CD's in my MBP (as mentioned above they were Parallels, Starcraft2, and Snow Leopard): absolutely no problem. But when i insert this Win 7 CD in, my MBP doesnt recongize it. My brains are fried as I cannot think of one single possibility of what might cause this strangest issue. (tried another Win7 cd, same thing)
Mac OS X 10.6.4/ Mac Book Pro 2.66 Intel Core DUo/ 4GB
this Mac was bought in October 2009 from official storeActually, it's not that strange at all.
Apparently due to the type of media Microsoft burns the disks on, some drives just don't like it. I had to make a copy of a Windows 7 DVD on my Mac Pro because the drive in a PC refused to read it even though it had no scratches or damage and the drive would read every other disk fine. When making the copy of the disk in my Mac I found that the Apple-shipped SuperDrive would read the disk but my aftermarket DVD burner in the second drive bay would not.
So, your options are to image the drive on another computer and burn a copy, or track down a USB DVD drive and install it from that.
Parallels will install from an ISO so if you can image it on your G5 and then just copy it over the network it will work. You can also enable CD drive sharing somehow, but I've never done that before.
EDIT: I wanted to comment that all the drives I have encountered that would not read the disk were TSSTcorp drives.

i have an iphone 5 that i traded with from a family member. its has coverage but now the sleep/wake button doesnt work sometimes. can apple replace my iphone and give me a new one or is it just something they can repair? i dont have the box or recipit to apple care or the iphone
Apple can fix it without your receipt or box. They pull the serial number from the device and determine warranty status from that. Hopefully ApplCare was registered to the product before you lost the receipt though. If not, you can go back to the point of purchase and obtain your AppleCare receipt and Apple can help attach it to the iPhone.
