From Arizona

Hello All

Im new to MacRumors as a registered member but I have been visiting the site for a few months now.

Im 22 from Arizona.

What I have is:

MacBook Pro (2012)
iPad 2 White 16GB
iPhone 5 Black 16GB
iPod Touch 5G 32GB
Time Capsule 2TB
Apple TV


Looking to sell or give away (nephew) my iPad and buy myself an iPad Mini 64GB when the new one comes out.

Another new guy, but not really a n00b.

Good morning all.

I'm an older guy, Photoshop artist/addict, musician, sloppy photographer.

As a new guy here and to the Apple realm, I hope to gain some insight to the workings of the MacBook world.

I usually don't post much in any forum, but I do read quite a bit, so my 'post count' isn't too important to me.

In any case, I seldom ask questions, but prefer to scour the entire internet before I do post a new question, if I ever do not find my answer.

Have a great day and don't drool.

God bless,
Kelly J.

Mac User from Redding CA!

Well hello!
I thought I would introduce myself to this forum and to let you all know I'm here to learn. As my signature said, I have gone through 4 brand new MacBook Pros in 2 years. The last one was my fault, 3 oz. of water can render one useless in seconds.

I'm not new to "Apple" products, but I'm new to "MacBook Pros." The last time I had an "Apple" product it was a 1989 "Apple IIGS." Since that machine I never purchased another "Apple" product till 2010. I have had nothing but issues, this one seams ok for now, but I'm still having a few glitches with graphics while viewing the internet. I no-longer have "Apple Care" with this machine and will never buy another "Mac" From "Best Buy." That is all I have to say about that!

During the mid 90s (1994-1998) I served in the "United States Marine Corps," while wrenching on vehicles, I learned to modify 486s. I am by no means a tech head, I was just hanging out with the right people at the right time. I'm really a gear head. I have a degree in Diesel Technology and have a passion for Diesel Power Sports.

My career is in Internet Marketing. I deal with search patterns, User psychology, and web traffic conversion. Thats it! everything else is a hobby.

New to MacRumors!

Hello everyone! Just joined MacRumors this morning! I wanted to get to know the community a little better by starting off with a hello.

I want to get rid of this so called "noob" status as quick as possible. Haha. Not that it's a bad thing, but I guess you guys were all noobs at some point right? Anyways, like I stated before, I want to get to know this community a litter better, so if you could just start off by talking about MacRumors, and the community itself, that would be great!

Thanks in advanced, Complete Geek.

Hello; I've been coming to the MacRumors site for a while now, and finally got around to creating an account. I'm a long-time MacBook user, starting with the first round of Intel laptops. I develop Mac OS network monitoring/security software as part of my day job. I'm also a science fiction writer; if you listen to the Drabblecast or read the Futures column in Nature, you might have seen some of my stuff.

Introducing myself

I am a 46 years old man from the Netherlands.

It all started with the purchase of an iPad 3, which was popular amongst my colleagues at school. I saw them working on it, so I decided to buy one myself.

I noticed it has many purposes and I mainly entertain myself with Internet and game apps when I am traveling. When I am lost in an unknown city, I use my iPad to find the route back to a known spot or to a clear destination. I use it as an atlas.

Later on I want to make programs for the iPad, but I found out that it cannot be done with a Windows computer. I found it a pity someway, so I finally decided to buy a 64-bit MacBook Pro with 4 GB of RAM for about € 1229,-.

Then I started making simple iPhone and iPad apps. Only for learning programming, for the time being not for distributing or selling them.

A jump from iOS programming to Mac OS X programming is pretty short so... I just made some simple applications to see what is possible.

Programming on an Apple laptop is fun and then I found this forum, to learn from you and - when I am more experienced - to help you.

You will see me frequently.

Have a nice day!

Hi Everybody!

Hi All,

I'm pretty new to the Mac world... just bought a late 2012 iMac and i'm using it as my primary desktop. I've been in the IT industry for about 5 years now and have been strictly PC before this new endeavor. I'm at the point where I want to learn new operating systems and I figured knowledge is power. I'll probably be modifying my machine soon... I've done a lot of reading on opening up the iMac's to replace the HDD w/ an SSD. This will be my first big project with the Mac, and considering there is about $2000 worth of liability I'm going to wait a bit before doing it.

I've been reading a lot of tutorial on the OS X, and trying to get up to snuff with terminal. Well... that's about it for now. I'll let you know if I break anything.
