Upgrade or get a new one- Macbookpro. 15. 2.6Intel Core 2 or Mac mini

At home I have my old MacBook Pro 15 inch - 2.6 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4Gb 667 MHZ DDR2 SDRAM. conected to an apple cinema dysplay With system10,8,2 and 250GBof Disk.
My most demanding usage is working with apperture pictures of about 12MB and library of 70GB. Creating presentations with Keynote and using some video.
Lattly I found that my computer goes slowl, and I have run some software to "clean the computer and organize the disk", It has improved but still is slow, even my MackBook Air (2nd genereration is faster).
I am thinking on changing the hard disk from 250 (Used 200), to a bigger may be "fusion", disk and upgrading from 4GB to 8 Gb faster RAM, or just may be switching to a New MacMini, since I use my macbook air for laptop....
MacMini
2.3GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
4GB memory
1TB hard drive1
Intel HD Graphics 4000
Any Sugestions....will be worth it the inversion of the "old Powerbook" is beggining of 2008.....If I get the new Mac mini....I will be loosing the screen of the MacBookPro......
Any sugestions will be really appreciated......
Thank you

It looks that I will need to get something new...will be the Mac mini enough,or I need to go for a new imac.....
I have a 20 inch apple cinema dysplay (about 3 years old) mouse...keywoard.....
Now while I run the ONyx software again, I got this message
Advertencia: el archivo SUID “System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent” it has been modified and will not be repaired
....does some one know what to do? When I reestart my computer I must do it keeping my finger on the reestart button and it gets triky and scary......
Thanks again

Can I got my iPhone replaced and when can I get my new one?

Hi guys, I got some questions with my phone and am appreciated that you can answer me.
I bought my 16GB iPhone 4 a year ago and it was out of warranty after February. Originally it was locked to fido (the Canadian carrier), but it was factory unlocked later. Before that there was a problem with this phone, when I made/ received phone calls from the others, the other party cannot hear me at all, or it worked for about 5-10 secends and it went down again. I checked the forums and found that it was a hardware problem. And I know there is a OOW service that allows me to pay $169 Canadian dollars for a new one.
And here are something I want to know:
Can I get the replacement for that?
Which version do I get for that (16GB or 8GB or the upgrade 4S)?
Do I get the unlocked one?
How long does it take to get my new phone? (As I live in a small city and there is no Apple Retail Stores here. To get the replacement I need to go to a larger city like Toronto or London, so I want to know if I can get a new one on the same day in store.)

Same answer as in your duplicate post

As long as they are already ticked in your iTunes then yes. Just to check do a sync and as long as everything stays the same you are good to go.

HT1296 Can't get my Music off of my iPhone 4. My computer died & had to get a new one, so now I cannot sync my iPhone 4 with the new computer, without losing all of my Music, because the only Music I have is on the iPhone 4 only, not on the computer. Help

My computer died & had to get a new one, so now I cannot sync my iPhone 4 with the new computer, without losing all of my Music, because the only Music I have is on the iPhone 4 only, not on the computer. No Backup anywhere : (
If I choose to sync it tells me all of the Content that does not match the iTunes library on the computer will be erased, do you want to proceed & I have to say no.
How do I replace the music library on my Computer with the Music on the iPhone?
I got my pictures off because you can access them when you connect the iPhone using Windows 7 but you cannot see any of the music so you cannot access it when using windows so don't know what to do...
Help...

The music sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion. Use your backup copy to move everything to your new computer.

Backup does not include apps,music,vids,etc
Backing up, updating, and restoring iPad, iPod touch, and iPhone software
You can loo up your purchases in your purchase history ( in your account in itunes) and unlike music, you can redownload apps.

Hey guys, my screen is dead. How do I get a new one?

I looked on eBay and found a bunch of displays, but there are so many, I don't know which one to get!
so I need a little help identifying my mac or the part number, if possible. I think it's a Macbook l,l.

Re: Hey guys, my screen is dead. How do I get a new one?
You buy one and install it or you pay an installer to do it.

Are you confident (in that case) that you can do the repair yourself? Perhaps you should let a professional select a screen and install it for you.
Laptop parts all have a part number - you should start there. Here is a typical part number location: http://www.screentekinc.com/lcd-removal-instructions_en,macbook,diagram3.shtml
Try speaking to a repair shop like techrestore, for example, for further details - http://www.techrestore.com/xcart/home.php?cat=273

All 13" Mac Books have the same screen which measures 13" diagonally. If you need to examine other size/era Apple notebooks look here http://www.apple.com/support/hardware/
If you can plug an external display into it then click the top left Apple icon and select "About This Mac" for CPU identifiers etc.
EDIT
I almost forgot - there are great service manuals available from here:

I have had bad luck with electronics lately my computer got lost to water and cant be fixed now my Ipod has been stolen I reported it to Apple but now I need to know when I get a new one how can I get back my music and games etc. if I can get it just with my account

What kind of iPod are you getting to replace it? If it is an iPod Touch, and you are in the US, after you set up the Touch you can use the iCloud beta and download your previous music, books and app purchases directly to your Touch.

My ipod 4 has apple care for 1 year i just got it can i get a new one because it broke and i pay for the apple care can i get a newe one

my ipod 4g has the apple care for 1 year can you get a new one for it because something happen to it the mirrer broke yes or no

AIf the iPod broke because of a defect then yes, Apple will replace the iPod if it is within the warranty period. A broken/cracked screen is not covered. However, sometimes if you make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store they will exchange your iPod at no cost if it has a broken/cracked screen.

I have an iMac (the desktop) I've stupidly left the cable you plug the monitor into the wall with there. What are they called and where can I get a new one?

Presumably the mains cable, which you can get from an Apple Store.

My iPod touch fell and a part of the screen shattered. It turns on and off, but the screen is no longer able to operate. How do I get it fixed? Will i have to send it in, go to the store, or just get a new one?

What do I do? Send it in? Bring it to the store? Or simply get a new one?

Hi !
bring it to the store.. its fast and the cost will be around 100$ CA... no need to get a new one..
good luck !

I accidentally changed a setting on my ipod touch and now it won't change back. I have had my ipod for more than two years and i dont know what to do. If i go to the apple store, would they fix it, or would i need to get a new one?

If it is still under warranty you can call the 800 number to apple and enter the serial number and it will tell you if it is under warranty or not if not its like $30 basically for them to help or something like that it said today when i called...
Or take it to a genius bar if you have one near?
Or further explain what setting you are needing fixed back and im sure someone here can help you for free!

The screen of my ipod broke so will i be able to get a new one but i left my ipod in the locker and my mom is planning to go tomorrow without the ipod to the apple store

the screen of my ipod cracked so will i be able to get a new one but i left my ipod in the locker and my mom is planning to go tomorrow without the ipod to the apple store but we still got the case of the ipod from the first day we cant find the receit though

1) you can get a replacement one, though you might have to pay the out of warranty price for the device (normal iPod touch 4th gen 8g = $99)
2) If you don't have the iPod itself, its is highly unlikely they'll replace it since you won't be handing the original over (since its in your locker)

Use your backup copy to put everything back.

I dropped my phone in the water I know it's not covered with the Warranty so what can I do can I trad it in and get a new one and pay some kind of money or do I have too just buy a whole new phone?

The genius bar folks will be glad to help...and if you have backed up your iPhone in iCloud they will restore the backup to the replacement iPhone for you while you wait.
Call or email for an appointment, you don't want to add to your frustration by standing around waiting for someone to get free to help you.

Upgrade or get a new one- Macbookpro. 15. 2.6Intel Core 2 or Mac mini
