Apple will add an SSD for my imac end 2012

I have an imac end of 2012.  I want to add, and SSD drive to it to increase the speed of loading.  I use photoshop and then CC.  I really don't want to do it myself and can not find anywhere on the apple support site information they will or how long it would take.  Any thoughts?

You need find an authorized service center Apple close to home first.

Go to this page, click and fill in the information in the https://locate.apple.com/package.

Apple stores won't work, but an authorized provider can.  Give one of your

choice a call and see if they provide such a service.

I strongly suggest an authorized service center, because they are familiar with Apple products

Unlike a "generic" PC repair workshop

Another alternative to internal installation, would be to get a USB3 or SSD Thunderbolt

or housing USB3 or Thunderbolt and install your own SSD.  Although the external hard drive

may not be as fast compared with installed internally, it will still be a major improvement

on a standard HARD drive.  Install the operating system and your files on it and use on the inside as a backup.

    Can someone help me please... I brought the iMac 27 in. in 2013. And I need to mount it on the wall.

    To my astonishment, I discovered that I can't get on the wall that my iMac is late 2012 model. And this model does not come with wall VESA opition.

    When I brought my computer, I was not put to the aware of the notice of wall-mounted or free-standing support.

    I spoke with tech support but no joy.  I was told to replace my iMAC or buy 3rd party mounting Kit. Unfortunately the 3rd party SDK does not solve my problem

    I wrote an email to Tim Cook, CEO, Jonathan I, Chief Designer but not heard of one of them.

  • Add the SSD for HP Pavilion desktop computer

    Hello

    I would like to add an SSD for my HP Pavilion 500-035ed (office). I do not want to replace the existing drive, I would add a second drive.

    I have already noticed a free sata connection and a free power cable, but I didn't notice a physical position for the support and the screws etc...

    Does anyone know if there is a manual that describes the physical position for a 2nd drive in HP Pavilion 500-035ed (office)?

    Thanks in advance,

    Hello

    Look at the picture below and see if your model is configured for one SSD installation.

    I see that your particular model is native/sold to the Netherlands.  There is a forum member that frequents this forum who lives in the Netherlands. Hmmmm that's a good guy!

  • I would like to add an ssd for my pavilion dv7

    Hey

    I own a pavilion dv7 4050eb, and I'm looking to add an ssd.

    It has 2 compartments to put a hard drive in my notebook, is currently being used, and the second is empty.

    So I thought that it would not be a problem.

    But when I went to my local computer specialty store (where I bought this laptop), they told me I will not work if the cable connection for a second hard drive and support was not provided with my laptop (which is you case) because they can't get those of HP, no matter how hard they try.

    Is there really no way that HP can provide these simple parts (cable and support)?
    And if I could get those, would there be any problems whith install an ssd in this specific book?

    Thanks in advance.

    You can find the part number for the hard disk hardware kit in the guide Service & maintenance dv7. You can order the part of sellers online or directly from HP online parts store.

    cable connector, Mylar cover with tab, 4 screws and 4 rubber Insulators) HP p/n 605415-001

    Yes, you can add a SSD. Your laptop might even have been bought with a SSD when ordered online.

  • More often than in other music Apple will not be broadcast on my iMac, but at the same time, it will be on my iPad

    I am continually frustrated with Apple's music streaming on my iMac.  Looks like a song loads, but never gets started playing.  I always thought the problem was my internet connection, but lately I discovered that, although my iMac does not load a song, if at the same time, I use my iPad on my wifi it loads and plays immediately.  What is the problem with the music does not not on my iMac?

    Hello Lucyskye,

    Thank you for asking your question here in Apple Support communities. I understand you want to be able to play your music. I can't do anything without my music all day. Let me give you what I can to help you solve this and get your music to play on the iMac.

    I don't want to bring music to Apple implemented correctly first. Apple's music composition only allows you to stream music from Apple on one device at a time, unless you have a family membership. Even if you have a family membership, you can still only broadcast on one device at a time by Apple ID. For this reason, I suggest isolate us the devices first and this test with the iMac.

    1. exit the Apple music on the iPad. Please leave the app. You can do this by double tapping the home screen and drag the application to the top music. This article has the instructions and example pictures. Force a nearby application on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch

    2. restart the iMac.

    3. If the problem persists, start the iMac in Mode safe mode and see if the load and play songs. (Although the speakers will be disabled, just visually see if she manages to go anywhere where it usually hangs up on. This article talks about fashion without failure: try safe mode if your Mac does not start-up

    4. you want to then also to test in a Test user. This article helps with that. How to test a question in another account on your Mac user

    If the problems remain and music will not play on the iMac in Mode without failure or user Test, then we want to stop the iMac. Back to the iPad, then click Settings > cellular and disable cellular data for a while. Make sure your iPad is only able to use a Wi - Fi connection and not able to access cellular data if the songs will not play on your Wi - Fi network. Then, open the app music again and try to play a song.

    If the music will not play one cell time is off, the cause is some parameters with your wireless network. You can check this information for the most common causes of problems with home networks. First of all, make sure that you use a wireless network open as your home network. If you connect to a Wi-Fi as a school, work, or other business, the airport, a military base or a hotspot of a network type, it probably won't work because these types of high security and high traffic and high security networks. They do not have the necessary data back causing problems exactly like the one you are currently experiencing.

    Do you use any third-party firewall (even on the router!), protection against viruses or proxies (which hide your identity on the internet)? Some security applications also do, but are called only for security or VPN. These few apps with names like Astrall or Webroot Secure Anywhere Antivirus, antimalware apps. There are literally hundreds of these applications that block the incoming ports that will not allow the function runs.

    If you want to check that the port is open on your iMac and the network, you can use this article: port TCP test between computers and peripheral connectivity. Apple music uses port 80, and iTunes music sharing is port 3689. You can find a list of all the ports used by Apple here: TCP and UDP ports used by Apple software.

    You can also find these two useful articles if you find that the problem is with your network.

    Recommended settings for the WiFi routers and access points

    Solve the problems between iTunes and third-party security software

    Don't forget to turn your cellular data within settings > cellular on the iPad once you're done test. Just in case music plays in Safe Mode or the Test user, you work through this article to resolve the issue. Mac OS x: how to solve a problem of software.

  • Laptop HP ENVY 15 t-k000 CTO: add additional SSD for HP ENVY 15 t-k000 CTO Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR)

    Hello.

    I have my laptop new HP ENVY 15 t-k000 CTO Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR) yesterday itself. He already have writer BRD. Can I replace my BRD burner with extra HD SSD? If yes what is the procedure for that?

    You can, but you shouldn't. The port for the optical drive is a SATA-I have the interface. Slower than the port for HDD/SSD. So if you want to just add storage put a regular mechanical training in an optical drive adapter. Also any drive in the optical drive adapter will not be bootable. This will help you:

  • Apple will swap my MBA for a MBP?

    Hi all!

    After a recent break-in, that my insurance company was expected to provide supporting documents to replace a number of electronic products that have been stolen, including an MBA from 2012. I decided to use some of the cheques to upgrade to a MBP. However, the insurance company changed their minds and directly replaced everything.

    Having now received my heart on a Pro and holding of a brand new no decachetees 2015 Air, I wonder if Apple would take my Air and make me pay the difference for the Pro. As far as I can tell it was't replaced directly from Apple, rather through the insurance company - what do you think?

    Thanks in advance!

    Go to an Apple store and get a Manager.  You want to determine is in the MBA statement the 14 days no questions asked return policy.  The problem I see is that there would be a reluctance to you will give a refund, but they can accept a most unlikely exchange of money for the difference.  Be very polite and see what happens.

    Ciao.

  • Apple will replace the battery for my MacBook Pro to the retina when in-store?

    Hi, the battery must be replaced on my MacBook Pro of retina, but I don't want to send it and pick up within 2 weeks. They will replace when I'm in the store? The guarantee also ended 2 weeks ago that I'd be able to show them, and they would be understanding and do it for free? Personally, I think that £125 for a battery is charges and it's a shame that it's over 2 weeks ago. Thank you!

    well - it depends on the discrection of one you get. I'd be inclined to say "no, they can't do it for free. As for how long that will take, well. again, you will need to enter and take a go-genius bar. What I can say is to be nice and polite, and maybe you could get lucky
