  • Purchased Mac Book Pro 2.7 GHz, 16GB RAM (upgrade), 512 FLASH (upgrade) 14 days ago - but new MAC Book Pro announce today (10/22). Did I Overpay? Any discounts or reimbursements for non-needed upgrades?

    I recently (14 days ago) purchased a Mac Book Pro 15.4 and increased the processor to 2.7 Quad Core Intel Core i7, increased memeoty to 16 GB 1600MHz DDR3l SDRAM, increased the storage to 512 Flash Storage. Today (10/22) an New Mac Book Pro was announce and release for purchase. This new laptop has 16 GB RAM and 512 Storage as defualt options without having to pay a premium.
    After contacting the customer service I was presented with two options - since the customer service representatives/ supervisors/ leads could not locate the price differences they could not tell me how much the credit should actually have been.
    1. Return the computer, have the monies returned to me and repurchase a laptop with the new standars (aproxx 2 -3 week process).
    2. Take a $150.00 credit
    I can say that the memory was probably $200.00 and the storage was probably $300.00.
    Is there a way to get the full refund for hardware configurations that are now default?
    If I had waited another 2 weeks I could have save some money and get a better video card and processor. The release of the New Mac Book Pro was not a known/ planned event.
    Can you help Apple?
    Thank you!

    You have also posted in the Mac Pro forum and not the MacBook forum. You may find many other similar experiences there. For future reference it's worth noting forthcoming upcoming Apple events and checking out some of the Apple related websites. You will then be able to make an educated guess re what is about to be updated and what is likely to remain the same. It's now a good time to buy an iPhone and all those recently updated MacBook Pro and iPad models. Less good time to buy iMacs.More detailed info here.

  • Any new IPhone announcements today?

    Hello there! I got called into work today so I couldn't watch the conference today. I have tried searching everywhere but all I can find is IPad this, IPad that...I think the new announcement has flooded the internet to cover up any new IPhone news.
    Anyone that watched the conference, could you tell me what they said about the IPhone? Is there a new IPhone coming this year like the previous three? Updated operating system? etc.?
    Any info out there?
    Thanks!

    Awaiting the iPad forum section also;
    has anyone got any details on how the iPad might act more like a computer in allowing editing, saving of MS Office documents? I work with Windows, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, SharePoint and would like to have a gadget such as the iPad that would handle Office.
    I own the iPod right now, but no iPhone and would like to have an Apple device that can handle a lot, be sort of a laptop in addition. I don't need the storage, processing of a laptop computer and i like how different this device actually is from a regular computer. If it can handle some basic stuff, if i want to have my resume in Word or edit/ save one of my work requirement documents, it would be a selling point if this can work with all that.

  • New AppleTV is announced today

    "You'll be able to re-download movies you've purchased on any device, and movies and TV shows now support 1080p."
    "Supports 1080p with a "streamlined new user interface."
    movies now from iTunes in the cloud - great!

    Matt Larson2 wrote:
    According to a blog site I just read:
    "Owners of the second-generation Apple TV will be able to access the new user interface with a free software update scheduled to become available today. 1080p video playback will remain exclusive to the new Apple TV."
    I would not be surprised.
    May or may not be a good thing.
    The A4 is powerful enough to handle a slightly different GUI arrangement, let's just hope it doesn't bring a size overhead that will diminish memory resources used for other things.
    I couldn't see anything obvious on the new AppleTV page earlier, but they do tend to mention software updates there if there's one available when a big interface change takes place.
    Both run iOS and should be able to support the new software unlike the old AppleTV 1.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Announced today!

    lots of fun and serious features!

    Hi Glenn,
    Since Acrobat 9 is not officially out (laugh at my first posting) -
    we'll have to wait for the official response unfortunately from Enfocus.
    However, since Adobe went through many different architecture changes
    with Acrobat 8, MACH code, Intel and Vista etc then only minor changes
    to the APIs of most developers is required to work with Acrobat 9.
    I would expect people who purchased the 08 series to have a free upgrade
    but not sure about users of Pitstop Pro 7 and Server 4 though.

  • Oracle8i for Linux Release announcement

    I received a copy of this Oracle marketing announcement today:
    The Linux tidal wave continues and Oracle is right at the
    forefront. We have
    been experiencing tremendous demand on Linux since Oracle8 was
    announced for
    that platform last October. Over 50,000 developers have
    downloaded Oracle8
    for Linux from Oracle Technology Network (OTN) since March, with
    the first
    20,000 coming in just the first 10 days! We now have over 800
    paying
    customers with over half the orders coming from enterprise
    accounts and most
    of the remainder orders from mid-sized businesses.
    This week Oracle is announcing the shipping of Oracle8i for
    Linux. Already,
    20,000 developers have registered for early access. With new
    internet
    technologies like Java and XML built right into Oracle8i for
    Linux, this
    release promises to be the hottest yet.
    Read on for more information about:
    - What are we announcing?
    - What are the key messages?
    - What is the pricing for Oracle8i on Linux?
    - Why does Oracle care about Linux?
    - Who are Oracle's major Linux Partners?
    - Which products are available on Linux?
    - Who is driving the Oracle on Linux effort and what are we
    doing?
    - Where to find more information about Oracle on Linux?
    What are we announcing?
    Oracle is announcing today that it has been receiving extremely
    strong demand
    for its Linux based products over the past quarter and is also
    shipping
    Oracle8i for Linux to manufacturing.
    What are the key messages?
    Linux represents the ultimate commodity operating system -- its
    fast, reliable
    and almost free! Businesses can now spend their time focusing on
    the higher
    value software they buy to run their businesses (such as
    databases and applications).
    With over 800 customers paying for Oracle on Linux, Linux is
    progressing from
    its roots as a student and developer operating system to a viable
    deployment
    environment in large business.
    Oracle has the best database on Linux. With over 50,000 people
    using Oracle8
    and over 20,000 people registered through Oracle Technology
    Network (OTN) for
    Oracle8i, Oracle is the overwhelming choice for the Linux
    operating system.
    What is the pricing for Oracle8i on Linux?
    Pricing of Oracle8i on Linux follows the standard Oracle price
    list (see
    http://appsweb.us.oracle.com/amapp/). Linux may be a freeware
    operating
    system, but Oracle on Linux is not free. Oracle does offer
    developer licenses
    through Oracle Technology Network (OTN) which allows developers
    to use Oracle
    software for non-commercial use.
    Why does Oracle care about Linux?
    Linux is hot! It is rapidly becoming the preferred platform for
    small ISP's
    and is used extensively by many of the internet's largest portal
    sites. For
    Oracle, Linux is the fastest growing operating system, growing at
    three times
    that of WindowsNT. Oracle on Linux presents customers a viable
    low-cost, yet
    highly stable alternative to WindowsNT. That said, with 46% of
    the NT market,
    Oracle is also the best selling database on NT!
    Oracle now has over 800 customers on Linux. This statistic alone
    strongly
    contradicts the common perception that Linux is solely used by
    students and
    developers. Linux has already established a foothold in many
    Fortune 100
    companies and although deployments are still currently small
    compared to NT
    and Solaris, they are accelerating rapidly.
    Which products are available on Linux?
    Currently available on Linux are:
    - Oracle8.0.5 Standard and Enterprise Edition
    - Oracle8i Release 8.1.5
    - Oracle Application Server 4.0.7 (40 Bit)
    - Oracle Application Server 3.0.2 (40 Bit)
    - Oracle WebDB 2.0.5.6.1
    Who are Oracle's major Linux Partners?
    Redhat Software - Linux distributors. Oracle has also made an
    equity
    investment in RedHat. (http://www.redhat.com)
    Caldera System - Linux distributors. Novell spin-off, focus
    primarily on
    enterprise customers. (http://www.caldera.com)
    Turbolinux - Linux distributor. Has a mostly Asia presence.
    (http://www.turbolinux.com)
    VA Linux Systems - Hardware vendor, making Linux systems.
    (http://www.linux.com)
    Linuxcare - Linux support provider. (http://www.linuxcare.com)
    Who is driving the Oracle on Linux effort?
    There are two teams within Oracle working closely to drive the
    Oracle strategy
    and goals on Linux: Internet Platform Marketing and the Linux SBU
    (Strategic
    Business Unit).

    ORACLE CAPITALIZES ON ENTERPRISE DEMAND FOR LINUX OFFERINGS WITH
    ANNOUNCEMENT
    OF ORACLE8i ON LINUX
    Early Adopters Programs Draws Nearly 20,000 Developers
    REDWOOD SHORES, Calif., July 19, 1999--Oracle Corporation, the
    number one
    choice for e-business, today announced dramatic growth and demand
    for Oracle
    on Linux with strong adoption in both enterprise and general
    business markets.
    Oracle also announced the general availability of Oracle8i on
    Linux, after a
    successful early adopter's program.
    Since Oracle Corp. announced Oracle8 on Linux, there have been
    over 50,000
    downloads from Oracle Technology Network
    (http://technet.oracle.com/ ). Now,
    after the announcement of Oracle8i, there have been nearly 20,000
    registrants
    for early access in the first few weeks. Outside the development
    community,
    Oracle has also seen overwhelming customer adoption with an
    excess of 800
    paying customers today -- over half of these orders from
    enterprise accounts
    and the remainder from small to mid-sized businesses and
    organizations.
    "Until the availability of Oracle database on Linux, we either
    had to rely on
    NT or use one of the shareware database servers available for
    Linux," says
    Jonathan August, President and CEO of Internection, Inc., a
    company providing
    customized Internet services solutions to businesses, including
    web hosting
    and e-commerce solutions. "Neither solution provided us the
    security,
    performance, manageability or reliability required by our
    customers. Oracle
    brings enterprise credibility and robustness to our products. As
    a result,
    we've gained access to customers ranging from small businesses to
    Fortune 100
    enterprises like Prudential and Pfizer. Our total revenue since
    the addition
    of Oracle on Linux has increased by 250%."
    "Oracle on Linux combines enterprise level reliability,
    scalability and
    performance with a free, robust and well-supported operating
    system," says
    Nick Marden, technical director of e-commerce, Xoom.com, and
    e-commerce
    service provider. "It enables Xoom.com to better understand our
    members'
    needs and respond to them quickly. Oracle on Linux represents an
    extraordinary value and it gets the job done."
    "Oracle is committed to bringing superior technology to the Linux
    community,"
    says Chuck Rozwat, senior vice president of Server Technologies
    at Oracle.
    "Oracle8i on Linux comes with both Java and XML built right in.
    Together they
    offer the most cost-effective way to deploy scalable Internet
    applications."
    Oracle8i is the first and only database specifically designed for
    the
    Internet. Oracle8i extends Oracle's long-standing technology
    leadership in
    the areas of data management, transaction processing and data
    warehousing to
    the new medium of the Internet. Oracle8i is the centerpiece of
    Oracle's
    Internet Platform, which also includes Oracle Application Server
    and Oracle's
    Internet development tools.
    Oracle Corporation is the world's leading supplier of software
    for information
    management, and the world's second largest software company.
    With annual
    revenues of more than $8.8 billion, the company offers its
    database,
    application server, tools and application products, along with
    related
    consulting, education and support services, in more than 145
    countries around

    Yeah, I got a couple of those....but if you go to Oracle, there
    is nothing about it, and nothing new on the OTN download...

  • There's a 10.5.3 update today 1/19/12

    Just a heads up - no idea what's in there but it just popped up for OSX Snow Leopard for me.    Investigating some more, given the issues with iTM this week.
    EDIT:  Also showing up for Windows.  Might be related to the iBooks announcement today, perhaps?

    I've got it installed. There does not seem to be anything new pertaining to iTunes Match. Just updates for the new text book stuff.

  • Bought 17" Macbook Pro 2.8 Core 2 Duo on Monday, new MBP's out today!!

    Hoping for some consumer advice here... I am a mac user for over 15 years but on Monday, I had a day off work and after looking at getting a new 17" Macbook Pro for well over a year to replace my dieing 15" version, I bit the bullet, and was at first happy with my purchase.
    Then, obviously the i5 version is announced today - I am not pleased and contacting 'Cancom' Apple reseller here in Edinburgh and they said 'they didn't know new ones were due' and that 'that's just the nature of buying computers'. No Sorry, no sympathy, nothing. I can't return it as I opened the packaging and booted up the machine, which breaks the license agreement.
    Ironically, Cancom's company strapline is 'The Apple Mac Specialists'.
    I am really unhappy about this whole thing... the staff member was a patronising so and so when I called earlier which didn't help. I've contacted Cancom Customer Services about the matter but I wondered if anyone had any good advice or had been through any similar situations?
    Cheers in advance

    Thanks guys, yeah I normally use Apple.com/uk site to buy but it was handy for me on Monday during a day off and wasn't necessarily 'rash' as I have been considering it for almost two years! (my 15" MBP is running on one fan, at 90degrees!)
    As far as not knowing about the cycle of upgrading the MBP's - I'm normally pretty clever with my research but for some reason I had in the back of my head, that Apple had brought out 3 new MPB's (all sizes) around 2 months ago!! I swear I'd seen them announced in a newsletter because I remember clicking through from my email client and looking at the specs online!
    hmm, bit of a nightmare all this all in all. ta for the words though.

  • IPhone announcment from AT&T

    AT&T announced today that they will start selling the iphone 3G contract free for $600-$700 depending on the model. You're still tied to AT&T as a carrier, and as of right now, the offer is limited to current AT&T customers. You also still have to sign up for the $30 iPhone data plan.
    http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2009/03/19/atandt-confirms-contract-free-599-699-iphone-3gs-for-next-w...
    No word on if Best Buy is going to be adopting the same offer.
    Don't take what I say as being absolute. There's always room for improvement.

    Oh, no doubt.
    One thing about the offer that I've read is that the offer is still going to require activation on and AT&T account, and that it's only going to be offered to current AT&T customers and still require the iphone data plan.
    So, if we at Best Buy do get to sell the iphones without a contract, we may still get profits from activating them on the AT&T accounts.
    Of course, this has basically opened the flood gates for people on AT&T to buy the phone and sell them on e b a y.
    Great move, AT&T.
    Don't take what I say as being absolute. There's always room for improvement.

  • Google announces Calendar Sync on iPhone...a few questions

    http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740
    Google has announced today that you can now sync your calendar and contacts with the iPhone and it supports push.
    I've been using MobileMe to sync my calendar and contacts and have been waiting for the day when I could sync my Google Calendar because of the fact I have so many subscribed calendars at work that I need access too.
    For anyone that's done this syncing with Google yet, can you confirm the following:
    1. Will it allow you to do just calendar and not touch your contact data if you don't want it to?
    2. Will you be able to add reminders (alerts) that will work on the phone the same was as the iCal syncing works?

    Is this possible?
    Setup:
    MacBook and MacBook Pro at home syncing iCal events (in four different calendars) and Address Book contacts with iPhone via Mobile Me. At work I forward Outlook appointments to Gmail, which puts them in a Google calendar, which the Macs at home pull into their iCal using CalDAV. Of course, that calendar does not sync to the iPhone. This setup circumvents the problem that the iPhone's Outlook Exchange syncing isn't supported at work.
    Question:
    Is it possible to sync just one calendar in Google calendar with the iPhone? I don't want the four calendars that sync over Mobile Me to sync to Google Calendars as well. I suppose that work calendar, once synced with the iPhone, will find its way via Mobile Me to iCal on the Macs at home, so that I can then simply unsubcribe to the CalDAV feed.
    Thanks,
    Richard

  • I just purchased an iMAC and Apple just announced the release of the new iMAC

    I just purchased a 27" iMAC with 8GB of RAM and Radeon 6970 2GB.....Total was $2,399 before tax and shipping. Will Apple allow me to exchange for the new iMAC that they just announced today?....I feel ripped off!

    The normal return policy is 14 days; but I've read of a couple of people claiming that individual stores may extend that - those reports were regarding the iPad.
    So, the only way to know is to ask Apple. As for feeling ripped off - why? Do you want/need a CD/DVD drive? The new iMacs don't have one. Do you want a firewire port so you can use your external hard drives which also have firewire - the new ones don't have that either. So, does your current iMac do what you purchased it for? If so, you weren't ripped off. Newer, better, bigger editions of electronics are being introduced daily - it's called marketing.
