Warranty Serivce Upgrade - Which One
I am looking at the Warranty Service Upgrade and have a few questions.
1. Looks like the T61 come with a base warranty: 1 Year Depot/Express Warranty
a. What does this actually cover?
2. We are considering a 3 year full warranty: 3 Year EasyServ + 3 Year ThinkPad Protection for 1 Year EasyServ ThinkPad
a. What exactly is EasyServ?
b. What does 3 Year ThinkPad Protection for 1 Year EasyServ ThinkPad mean?
3. Is there a URL that describes in full the meaning of the warranties? At the moment, "help me decide" is not that helpful.
Thanks for your comments.
i've two questions.

-------------my questions----
1. from what it shows that currently they've put 1GB RAM in each of the 2 slots [i wonder why not a single 2GB in one slot while other is empty, however this is not my question] .. can i upgrade it to 3GB by just purchasing a 2GB ram for now? meaning, in one slot i'll let the 1GB remain, and in other, i'll replace the 1GB with the 2GB that i intend to purchase. will it work?
2. if the answer to the above is yes, can i go for this particular RAM? is it compatible with my model? http://www.ramjet.com/ItemDescription.asp?Item=MBKS2G

Please help! I have a Apple MacBook Pro "Core i7" 2.8 13" Late 2011. i want to upgrade its RAM from 4GB to 16GB. But OWC sells two kinds of RAM, the DDR3 and the DDR3L.What is the different and which one would work better for my mac. Thanks!!!
I don't see any DDR3L on the page for the RAM that would fit your model -> http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3_133 3MHz_SDRAM.
But the answer is that it doesn't really matter - just make certain to get 1333MHz.
Good luck,

Hello, I have macbook pro, late 2008, OS X 10.5.8 and I want to upgrade to new soft, which one is the proper one for me Snow leopard or Mountain Lion, and what is the differences between those.
What do you recommend at this time for me.
Thanks a lotYou can upgrade to Mountain Lion, but you have to upgrade to Snow Leopard first. Buy Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Then, make a backup, insert the DVD and upgrade. After upgrading, open Apple menu > Software Update and install the most recent version. Mac OS X 10.6.8 includes the App Store, so open it and purchase Mountain Lion. See if your programmes are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com -
i have macbook 5.2 and i am using Mac OS 10.5.8 . which one is good for me to upgrade and how to do that..plz help me
You have a 13" Early or Mid 2009 MacBook. Either one can run OS X Mavericks with enough RAM, 2 GB minimum. But first you will need to update to OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8 so that you have the Mac App Store installed on your MacBook
Buy this from apple;
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Then download and update with this update combo;
OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8 v1.1 update combo
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
After this you will have the Mac App Store on your MacBook and you should be able to download and install OS X Mavericks for free!
Your MacBook must meet these minimum tech specs to run Mavericks;

The MBP w/ Retina Display is 2.3GHz but the other without Retina Display is 2.6GHz. So I don't know which one would play games absolutely flawlessly. I wont have the screen resolution so high on the games though. So can someone reply and tell me which one I should get and why?
Mac's are generally not 3D gaming computers and laptops especially are not because 3D games require a upgraded video card to take advantage of newer games and more feature rich updates.
Only the Mac Pro can one change the video card, if one can find a upgrade for it.
If you really love 3D gaming, a Windows 7 3D gaming tower is your machine.
http://www.cbscores.com/index.php?sort=ogl&order=desc
3D gaming on a Mac is sort of a second hobby, it's rather short lived as one can't replace the video card once a year, only with a new machine purchase.
Most 3D games are for Windows anyway and Apple almost demands OS X be upgraded to newer verisons annually now, so that sort of throws a monkey wrench into a Mac gaming rig with software upgrades and all. On the other hand Windows 7 is supported for a decade.
Mac's just don't work well with 3D gaming, perhaps a Win 7 tower and a iPad or something. -
Currently on 10.4.11. Is 10.5 or 10.6 worth the upgrade? If so, which one?
Headline speaks for itself. I have a 5 year old MacBook Intel Core Duo running on 10.4.11.
It's been a good computer, but have filled up the hardrive and notice slower performance, my airport has been spotty ever since last summer (I've switched out cards, and have been told it could be the OS). I feel its time for an upgrade but was curious if the new OS were worth going to and if so, which one to choose or should I just get more memory and a larger HD?
Thanks.You can upgrade.
Snow Leopard General requirements
Mac computer with an Intel processor
1GB of memory
5GB of available disk space
DVD drive for installation
Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Leopard System requirements
You must have a Macintosh computer with:
an Intel processor or a PowerPC G4 (867 MHz or faster) or G5 processor
a DVD drive >built-in FireWire
at least 512 MB of RAM (additional RAM is recommended for development purposes)
a built-in display or a display connected to an Apple-supplied video card supported by your computer
at least 9 GB of disk space available, or 12 GB of disk space if you install the developer tools
Whether upgrading or not is your decision based on what you need and what you are willing to do in order to facilitate the upgrade.
As for more memory and bigger hard drive, I'd so absolutely do that.
Minor consideration is whether the cost of doing the upgrades versus selling or donating the computer isn't worth the cost of buying a new one. -
Hi there. Can a MacBook from mid 2007 running OS X (10.6.8) be upgraded to a later version? If yes which one and how can I get it please? Many thanks. Franck
10.7 Lion is still available from Apple. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store. The price is $19.99.
You must have at least a Late 2006 model 2,1 MacBook.
The model 2,1 (Late 2006 & Mid 2007) can use 3gb of 200 pin 667mhz PC2-5300 RAM
The model 3,1 (Late 2007) can use 6gb of 200 pin 667mhz PC2-5300 RAM
Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly. You can put two 2gb RAM sticks in the model 2,1 but it can only use 3,3gb. This is a hardware limitation and cannot be changed.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3_GB_barrier
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/faq/macbook-pro-core-2-duo-3-g b-memory-limitation-details.html
OWC tests have found that there is a slight speed increase with having two 2gb sticks in rather than one 1gb and one 2gb. the model 2,1 is in the gray lines at the bottom of the graph. http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/Memory_Benchmark/Apple_MacBook/
As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications. -
Everytime i try to download firefox3.6 it says if i wish to run or save the file (I say run),then it says something about a temp. file and I say to run.Then it asks me what file i wish to use and I don't know which one.If i use Mozilla,then it kicks me out and it won't let me get the newer version.
Have you tried using '''Help''' > '''Check for Updates''' while in an Admin account to allow Firefox to update itself?

Does it void my warranty to upgrade the hard drive and ram in a MacBook?
Recently a new store in my local mall called Peachmac opened. They do repairs and upgrades. I went there to see about a hard drive and RAM upgrade. They told me if I do it myself, it voids the warranty. I have about 8 months of Apple care left on my Mac and don't want to loose it. My real question is does it void your warranty even though the instruction booklet specifically tells you how to do it? The reason I'm wondering this is because they want $69 an hour plus money for parts. They quoted around $125-$150 (for a 500GB HD and 4GB of RAM). Is this an ok deal? Or should I go for an SSD? I saw Crucial was doing a bundle for a 128GB SSD and 4GB of RAM at my local CompUSA. Which one is a better deal? Thanks!
If you replace the memory, it doesn't void your warranty, but the warranty will be voided if you replace the hard drive

Can someone please assist me. I was given an iPod 3G as a gift and I tried to download various apps and it told me that my iPod needs to be iOS 7 or more but I checked and my iPod is at its latest upgrade which is 6.1.6, how can I get those app?
See a a version compable with your iPod is available:
Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.
Also, if you have iOS 6.1.6 yo have a 4G (has cameras). A 3G does not have cameras and can only go to 5.1.1 -
Transfer Upgrade from one line to another on the same plan.
Is it possible to transfer an upgrade from one line to a second line, and then have the phone that was used on the second line, be switched to the first line? If so, how would I go about doing this online?
Yes. The account owner should be able to log in to MyVerizon and click on "Transfer this upgrade" when they view all of the upgrades available for their account. If they don't have that option, another way is to just order the phone normally, then activate the new phone on the line it was ordered for briefly to accept the Terms & Conditions of the new contract. Then you can activate the old phone from that line again, which will free the new phone up to be activated on the second line.
If you're getting a 4G phone, you'll want to call in to Customer Service before you start activating though, because the 4G SIM cards can complicate the activation process. -
Can anybody help?
I am considering buying a new MAC laptop to run LOGIC for composition and band live/recording, but which one is best as I do not want to spend too much money?
Does it have a line in and how do you monitor sound?
Will I need adaptors and an interface?
Also, I am guessing as Logic only runs on MAC surely then they would not the best spec to recommend to run it?
I see all the upgrades as additional memory or a faster process?
Is a retina screen necessary, and why flash based storage against a 1TB hard drive, and a i5 instead of an i7
The main reason for this purchase is to play live and use backing tracks and record found sounds and make creative songs.
I hope you can provide some valuable feedback, as I am a longtime MAC user and see upgrades and changes happen regularly but the most important thing is the songs not the equipment.
I have £500 already and willing to add another 500 to 700 pounds, then software extra.Can anybody help?

my iphoto wont open since i updated my mac, please help? it says i need to install an iphoto library upgrader which I have installed but still cant see my photos.
What version of iPhoto are you using? 9.6 is the current version.
Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.iPhoto.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.
