in the middle of april 2010 I bought a MacBook Pro core i7, everything works fine but after install Mac OS X Lion the machine is freezing with Photoshop, iphoto, Youtube, Safari and the login screen, anothers times show a lots of color in the display and freezing again.To fix all this issues, I was reset the PRAM, SMC, reinstall Lion after format the HD, etc. Nothing works and make an appointment in genius bar, I show to them this article url...and they tell me that my machine is not elegible for the warranty because the problems are differents.

I'm putting in the NVidia GeForce GTX 285 1GB, some internal HDD's, a SuperDrive, 8GB apple-spec RAM, etc.. etc...I'm wondering if for any reason something goes wrong with my machine, and I need a replacement, or for whatever reason I need to contact apple about help for my machine.. if they can turn around and say "You modified your Mac Pro" it's no longer under warranty? I think they're designed for US to do this stuff?

I don't know how the hinge got broken. My Macbook never drop or fell. It doesnt have dents or broken at any other parts. Just my right hinge is broken.

i have a macbook pro 15" 2011, i would like to change the internal drive with an SSD (OWC Mercury Extreme Pro 6G), but i have the Apple Care plan active. Does the drive replacement void the Apple Care? or the Apple Warranty in general ?

About two months ago the WiFi network I had set up was hacked by 14 people. I spent about an hour cleaning out the router, changing passwords, SSID's and encrypting the network moreso than it was prior.After that I downloaded a free trial of 'Virus Barrier' as I have zero trust of McAfee (the only other option I could find).After the trial ran out I deleted the icons as I'm not very familiar with Mac's and could not figure out if that would completely remove the software or not (I don't believe it did).I use GoogleChrome as our browser, while running Netflix or just turning it on (doing anything really) we get asked to approve for 'KsFetch' or 'Kfetch' to open a port. I did a little reading on this and did/have not found anything saying it is/was a threat, so I allow(ed) it. Due to the fact that our browser runs increasingly slow regardless of the fact that I consistantly delete cookies and history, I'm interested in having a technician who's more familiar with Mac's than myself; run diagnostics on the computer and basically just run a little 'check-up' and make sure it's okay.I think the slowness of the internet and the unresponsive browser may be due in part to our router which I don't believe is fully equipt to handle the amount of bandwidth that we use. But just to be on the safe side considering this was a very expensive computer, I want it looked into.So my question is (after all of that mess), if we get a warranty, would it cover general diagnostics? And Which warranty would be best (assuming there are variable kinds)?
If anybody with vast knowledge of Mac's and their upkeep reads this, would you happen to know if there may be something wrong with the computer?Earlier this morning it smelled a bit like burning plastic, it is generally used all day than off all night, after about ten minutes the smell went away (this was before I turned it on.).

Transferred data from PC to iMac. Emails going back to 2008 that I want to remove from Gmail 'All Mail'. Have tried merely delete, establishing a folder for 'old emails' then removing them to trash and emptying trash, and creating a filter to clear old messages from Gmail Inbox. Nothing works - they keep coming back. Help, I do not need them on my computer.

I transferred all my information from my old computer to time machine and now onto my new great iMac. I have user names that I want to delete. How do I do this? Also, is there a way to transfer photos from iphoto in another users name into my user name?

I transferred about 400 gigs of data from my MacBook Pro to my new iMac using Migration Assistant, but can't find any of my data on Finder. I'm thinking that the data got transferred but not cataloged. Finder shows about 400 gigs of my hard drive being used, but the files it shows don't come anywhere close to 400 gigs. How can I find out what is really on the hard drive and how can I access my MacBook files I transferred?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a 2.4 Intel MacBook that I purchased in April. I want to upgrade the memory to 4gb and swap out the hard drive for a bigger one. I've searched this forum and found conflicting replies. One said that replacing either RAM or my HD will void my warranty, another said that HD is user-replaceable and RAM is not, while another said both are fine. Any idea on what is accurate? How much would it cost to just take it to the Apple Store and have a genius replace the HD and RAM? I can do it myself, but I don't wish to void my warranty.

Has anyone had any luck getting Apple to replace out of warranty batteries that are swelling?
I have a 2008 aluminum MacBook. Battery only has 170 cycles. Health is 96%. I noticed recently that, when using the system, it'd die at 8%. Just shut off. No warning or anything. I did an SMC reset, PRAM reset. Reinstalled Snow Leopard. Nothing changed. Didn't think much of it. Grabbed my system today and noticed the bottom casing was all uneven. I flipped the switch and took the one piece of the case off and noticed the battery was higher than it should be. Took it out and set it on the table and, sure enough, it wobbles all over the place.
I took some video and pictures with my iPhone 4 and emailed it to the woman who helped me earlier this year when the SuperDrive firmware update killed my DVD writer. Hopefully they'll do something about it. Battery is too young with too little use to be swelling like that.
have had 5 Magsafe Chargers two 60W and three 85W of the three 85W, two of them are the older ones(rectangular and bigger) and one is square one that came with my 2009 unibody Macbook Pro 13"I threw away one of the 60W one when it first broke(the original one that came with my 2006 MacBook

View 5 Replies View RelatedWas about to purchase some new RAM sticks for my macbook, but it struck me that installing it myself might invalidate my warranty. I have an apple care protection plan which lasts for another 18 months, so will I still be covered if I put in the sticks myself?
View 6 Replies View RelatedSo I just bought the extended warranty for applecare for my MBP 13" 1 day before my warranty expires. (I checked my warranty status and it still says I'm covered.) However, I expected it to give me a number right away, but there's none--apparently they mail it. Kinda dumb, but okay. It won't arrive until after the warranty expires. Now, my question is: Can I activate the extended warranty when it arrives or will I be out of luck? I know that they say that you can purchase the warranty within 1 year of purchasing your hardware. However, I want to be absolutely sure, or else I'll be out a couple hundred dollars and have nothing to show for it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI work at a University with a very "by the book" IT director. He is under the assumption that installing third-party parts (e.g. RAM, hard drives, etc) in an Apple product (such as a Mac Pro or MacBook) "voids the warranty" because this apparently is the case with some PC brands. I know this is not the case and that Apple characterizes RAM as a user-upgradable part -- as long as you don't break anything while installing it, it does NOT void your warranty (case in point: Apple even gives detailed instructions on how to upgrade).Â
However, being the stickler that he is, my IT director will not take my word for it -- he needs proof from Apple that it's okay for us to upgrade these machines ourselves. Can anyone provide a link on an Apple (or similarly reputable) site clearly stating that this is the case? Does such documentation exist?

I have a 1TB external drive hooked up via Firewire 800 to my PMG5 and I just got a new 2TB external drive hooked up via Firewire 400. I am trying to transfer the old backup to the new drive (around 800GB) and after 2 attempts, each lasting around 15 hours, nothing happens. It just stays stuck on the transfer screen "preparing copy to" and states like 350,000 files and just pends there. Finder is not crashed either. First time, I thought it was maybe because i had Time Machine still backup so the 2nd time, I turned it off and still the same. You see it scan and get to the 350k files and then it just sits there. Can I not just Copy, Paste the backup from one drive to another?
