What to do  to change owner of MacBook?

I am giving my daughter in college my 6 month old MacBook after her PC computer crashed. What do we need to change to make it all hers? I deleted my files and e-mails I have iDisk and .Mac and ProCare and such. Any suggestions? Also she will be going to school in Rio next quarter do they have Apple stores there for her to get the classes?

Hi there,
after you have backed up or transferred all of your data, just insert the Apple Install DVD that came with the computer, and do a clean install. She will be able to register the Macbook in her name after the new install.
Here's a link for Apple Stores by country:

Hope this helps.

  • The sign-in graphic changed on my macbook air for no apparent reason.  what's up?

    The sign-in graphic changed on my macbook air for no apparent reason.  What's up?  How do I get it back to my chosen graphic and why did this happen?

    When I originally set up the computer, I just chose a preloaded picture that was offered.  (For example, I chose the sunflower, but now I get an eagle--but never chose the latter).  It's not really a big deal, I was just worried that somehow my computer might have been tampered with.  The OS update may be why it changed.
    How do I change it back--if you wouldn't mind taking the time to explain something that is probably very simple to a not too computer-savvy user.  Thanks!

  • What is the right charger for a MacBook Pro 13"  mid 2009 model?

    What is the right charger for a MacBook Pro 13" mid 2009 model? I have two chargers for two different Mac and don't know which is  thankswhich. I'm really looking for specific details such as voltage/watts and all the rest to idenify my charger.  A link to where to web page where I could purchase the correct charger would also be very useful. Many thanks.
    All help much appreciated. THANK YOU

    Both power adapter I have are different (at the magnet end) from the one in link.
    Earlier adapters have T shaped connectors, which Apple later changed to the L shape, presumably to make them more abuse-proof. Either one is fine and the one you are using will not damage your Mac.
    Retina MBPs and new MBAs use a completely different MagSafe 2 connector which will not fit (without an adapter).

  • Itunes 10 imports cd tracks in alphabetical order only.  What setting do I change so it imports the same order as the cd?

    itunes 10 imports cd tracks in alphabetical order only.  What setting can I change so that it will import cd tracks in the same order as on the cd?  Any help would be appreciated!  I have this issue on only 1 of my 2 macbook pro computers, so I'm guessing it is a setting issue--but I don't know where to find it.

  • Changing Owner & Business Group of ASD Custom Resource

    So this is a bit of an expansion of this discussion: https://communities.vmware.com/thread/500669?start=0&tstart=0
    You will see that pizzle85 managed to solve his challenge of BG object ownership by using an ASD Service Catalog Request located in each Business Group's Entitlements so a member of the business group can just run the Provision required to bring the BG item under management in the business group.  This is quite an effective method to solve the need.  He then has a Resource Action that allows for re-"Provision" which changes owner within the business group: a necessary task because managers tend to move around a lot so they can look busy. (just kidding, I love managers--who have a sense of humor)  So to change owner... just perform a "provision" again.
    Apparently this is one of the best kept secrets in vRA because it has been hard to figure out, and nobody is writing about it.  (I can only assume that there is some SE out there who has worked with the developers to get this capability going and it hasn't been shared widely.)
    Note: I think Business Groups as a Service is something I need to plan for (vs centrally managed Business Groups) even though their future implementation might vary, so my examples here are related to that effort because I am too lazy to demonstrate a generic example.  BUT... the idea is... ownership of ASD Inventory Objects (representing ANY Custom Resource) can be modified using this method.  Ownership includes both the owner represented by "ME" in the Items list... and the Business Group  (subtenant Reference & Label) where the item resides in inventory.
    In 6.2.x, I have not found any method in the vRO plugin for vRA to be able to change ownership and business group of an ASD Custom Resource Inventory Item, but it can be accomplished via a combination of (1) ASD Service Catalog or Resource Action "Provision" capabilities and (2) REST calls through the vRA plugin service channels.  (the latter uses the plugin service account authorizations/entitlements)
    Consider this image...
    This could represent a central management point for many business groups: where I can assign a set of resource actions allowing for automation of various business group needs, an anchor point for actions.   Those in the sktest business group Support User or Manager Role would be able to see all the business groups globally if they were all provisioned in sktest.  (a bucket to manage from)
    This also could represent a starting point where business groups are created as real objects, returned as custom resources, and "provisioned" as inventory object items.  But once there...maybe you want to move it?
    Let's say we later decided, seantesting doesn't belong in sktest because we wanted to change from the "we manage it for you" model to the "manage it yourself" model.  How do you move it?
    Like this...
    And it moves now owned by the vRA plugin service account... (which an entitled user could run Take Ownership and own it in that business group)
    The service account obviously needs to be part of the destination business group and as it ends up, has to have an entitlement to any "provision" action in the business group even though the object doesn't exist there.
    This is a tricky hack and this is how it works...
    1. vRO workflow calls the Take Ownership Action in vRA via REST (front door process).  As noted before, this has a provision attribute to the action which we know changes the owner.  So we would expect that the owner would change to the user that is making the request: which is the service account.  The service account becomes the owner, but this wouldn't change the Business Group.
    2. So we change subtentantRef and subtenantLabel in the REST call to the business group we want to target, even though the object isn't in inventory in that business group.  And Voila! The business group item representation re-provisions as a new owner in a new business group.  Effectively changing the owner and moving the object from one BG to another BG using the management-method vs the self-service-method (the latter as pizzle85 did).
    Again... maybe you care less about Business Groups.  Maybe you would prefer self-service. It is the capability of moving a custom resource inventory representation that matters.
    Here is an example of the REST call to run the "Take Ownership" action.  I have a script before this that pulls in all the variables for the "Resource" I am targeting (from the BusinessGroup object ID), the action I am running  (Take Ownership ID), the business group Ref and Label) and some of the properties I need for the Take Ownership action like bgName... but those are actually not necessary. (all of the "entries" are what is required per the Take Ownership request... if that request didn't require any inputs, there would be no entries... it is the top change of subtenant that allows for the BG move)
    System.log("resourceRef: " + resourceRef);
    System.log("resourceActionRef: " + resourceActionRef);
    System.log("targetRef: " + targetRef);
    System.log("targetLabel: " + targetLabel);
    System.log("bgName: " + bgName);
    var payload ={
    "@type":"ResourceActionRequest",
    "resourceRef":{"id":resourceRef},
    "resourceActionRef":{"id":resourceActionRef},
    "organization":{"tenantRef":"vsphere.local","tenantLabel":"vsphere.local","subtenantRef":targetRef,"subtenantLabel":targetLabel},
    "state":"SUBMITTED",
    "requestNumber":0,
    "requestData":
    {"entries":[
    {"key": "provider-rYouSure","value":{"type":"boolean","value":"true"}},
    {"key": "provider-bgName","value": {"type": "string","value":bgName}}]}
    payload = System.getModule("org.dojotoolkit.dojo.json").serialize(payload);
    System.log(payload);
    Server.log(payload);
    var catalogRest = cafeHost.createRestClient(vCACCAFEServicesEnum.CATALOG_SERVICE);
    var response = catalogRest.post("consumer/requests",payload);
    Best of luck in your Automation Efforts!

    Turns out... it is likely not required as part of the request data.

  • I have recently changed from a macbook to macbook pro and all my files were saved on time machine but some won't open. It says I need permission.. How do I open them?

    I have recently changed from a macbook to macbook pro and all my files were saved on time machine but some won't open. How do I open them?

    Are you trying to open the backup files via the Finder or an application?  If so, that's not how you should access your backups -- use the "Star Wars" display, per #15 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.
    How did you get your stuff on the new Mac? 
    It sounds like you may have skipped the offer to transfer it when your Mac first started up, created a user account, then used the Migration Assistant app instead.  If so, that may be the problem;  doing it that way means you end up with an extra user account, and can lose permission to files on other volumes, especially backups.
    Please clarify just what you're seeing, and whether you still have the old Mac.

  • What is the RAM limit in a macbook pro 2.33ghz intel core 2 duo.?

    Hello
    I have a macbook pro 2.33 ghz intel core 2 duo with
    2 GB 667 MHZ DDR2 SDRAM
    What is the RAM limit i can install? 3GB or 4GB?, how do i know that? I dont have the manual.
    thank you
    Leo.

    What is the RAM limit in a macbook pro 2.33ghz intel core 2 duo.?
    3GB. You can install 4GB. The computer will only utilize approximately 3.3GB though.

  • What is wrong with OSX on the MacBook Pro and when will it be fixed?

    When running Second Life or Worlds of Warcraft or just quick browing... anything graphically intensive on the MacBook Pro, the machine slows to a crawl, eventually completely freezes up. The cursor doesn't move, pressing the Caps Lock key does not change the Caps Lock light and the machine is no longer reachable from any other machine on the network. The only means available to recover is to hold the power button down until the Mac powers off and then restart it. This doesn't happen when running XP through boot camp and windows client versions of these programs. What is wrong with OSX on the MacBook Pro and when will it be fixed? Thanks.

    I am not sure that this relevant to the discussion. But I am searching for anyone else who is seeing random freezes on 10.4. I usually don't see anything in the log after I have to do a hard reboot of the box. However, I have noticed some I/O messages when I have been able to console into an affected device, but have not captured to this point. Also, when I am able to console, the box will accept the login, but times out when trying to authenticate the password.
    I am also seeing a server freeze on my G4s. I am able to reproduce the problem with a clean install from the 10.4 disk. The issue is reproducible with tcpdump, dumpcap as well as tshark. I have also tried compiling the tools with different versions of libpcap. I am able to reproduce this problem every time with a packet generator sending small packets.
    It seems that the small packets aggravate the underlying cause. As the more small packets are sent the quicker I am able to reproduce the problem. With a mix of packet sizes, as seen in most networks, this issue is hard to reproduce. We have been using the G4 since 2003 as a packet analysis tool and it has been very stable up until we attempted to do analysis of a VOIP network with 10.4. The small RTP packets in conjunction with 10.4 seem to be the culprit.
    So far I am not able to reproduce the freeze on a 10.2 or 10.3 image. This is not isolated to bad hardware, as I have been able to reproduce on 4 different Xserves in my labs with similar configurations.
    I currently have a G4 set up in my lab and would be able to supply any info that may be needed to track down this issue. I have been thrust into administration on this box recently so I am not very familiar with debugging procedures on the Xserve or MacOS. However, I have the hardware and the test equipment that many in a production setting may not have at their disposal. So if anyone, with extensive knowledge of the Xserve or MacOS, is willing to work with me to track down this issue I am willing to do the leg work in the lab. I would appreciate any assistance that is available.

    Highly appreciates any advices and/or pointers with regards to the above mention question.
    Thank you.

    Hi all,
    Thank you for the reply but I have forgotten to add a few updates.
    The issue is that I can change owner from SAP* to my ID with sap_all profile.
    But, after execution,
    Job with sap* owner ended successfully, with spool status marked as completed.
    whereas
    Job with my ID as owner ended successfully, but spool status marked as "waiting"

    Hi Baem_leeds
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    If you change your Apple ID you will need to sign in with the new information or password the next time you use an Apple service or feature that uses Apple ID. If you have multiple devices that use features and services that require an Apple ID, you will need to sign in again on each device.

  • SOA Suite 10g and SOA Suite 11g? what are the major changes in these two?

    Hi Experts,
    I am keen in knowing about Soa Suite 11g. SOA Suite 10g and SOA Suite 11g, BPEL changes? what are the major changes in these two product/tool wise? Is now OSB is part of Soa Suite 11g? it would be helpful for us to know what are the major changes and updates or modifications came in 11g.
    Please share this valuable information.
    Is there still any version is in progress from Oracle, which is yet to be officially launched from oracle?

    what are the major changes in these two product/tool wise? Few major changes to enlist are that SOA suite 10g was using Oracle Application Server (OC4J) however 11g is on Weblogic and 11g is based on SCA. B2B is now part of SOA suite itself and OSB can share a domain with SOA. You may refer below link to know few more -
    http://blogs.oracle.com/soabpm/2010/03/11gr1_patchset_2_111130_soa_fe.html
    Is now OSB is part of Soa Suite 11g? OSB has a separate installer but can share a domain with SOA and SOA-direct binding is also supported now. Refer below link to know more about new features in OSB 11g -
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/relnotes.1111/e10132/osb.htm#CJACHEHJ
    Is there still any version is in progress from Oracle, which is yet to be officially launched from oracle?No major release is planned. Patches for 11g R1 may come.

  • WHAT IS USE OF CHANGE DOCUMENT FIELD?

    HI experts,
    go like this,

    in this if we select change document field what will be occured , if we deselect   thatfield what will be the changes and where will be reflected that changes.
      thanks,

    Hi,
    It is used as an Indicator for writing change documents
    <b>Use</b>
    This flag is used to create change documents for business objects.
    You can create a change document object for a business object. This change document object contains the tables in which the data of the business object is stored. Function modules that are called in the corresponding application programs and that log the changes at runtime can be generated from the change document object.
    Logging only takes place if the fields whose contents were changed refer to a data element that was flagged as relevant for the change document.
    You can go to the maintenance screen for change documents from the initial screen of the ABAP Workbench with Development -> Other tools -> Change documents.
